Immobiliare Grande Distribuzione SIIQ — Cyborg Score 7/10

Strong
Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) - Retail Shopping Centers

Strategic Profile

IGD was the first to enter the SIIQ scheme (Società di Investimento Immobiliare Quotata – Real Estate Investment Trust) in Italy in 2008. An extensive domestic presence, a solid financial structure, the ability to plan, monitor and manage all phases of a center's life cycle, both freehold and leasehold, as well as ongoing investments in retail and technology innovation, ensure IGD's position as a point of reference in the retail real estate sector. IGD also acts as a service provider, managing portfolios of institutional third parties.

Cyborg Score Rationale

IGD reported positive operating performance with footfall growth, turnover increases, and occupancy rates close to 96% with growing rental income. The company has received EPRA BPR Gold Award for its 2024 Consolidated Financial Report for the eighth consecutive year and EPRA sBPR Gold Award for its 2024 Sustainability Report for the eleventh consecutive year. Market leadership position and consistent performance demonstrate solid operational strength, though retail real estate sector headwinds merit caution.
