I Included €171 million for the fair value of the investment property recognized in connection with the merger between Ahold and Delhaize (see Note 4).
In 2016, Ahold Delhaize recognized net impairment losses of €10 million. These were related to Ahold USA (€10 million).
A significant portion of the Company’s investment property comprises shopping centers containing both an Ahold Delhaize store and third-party
retail units. The third-party retail units generate rental income, but are primarily of strategic importance to Ahold Delhaize in its retail operations.
Ahold Delhaize recognizes the part of a shopping center leased to a third-party retailer as investment property, unless it represents an insignificant
portion of the property.
The carrying amount of investment property includes an amount related to assets held under finance leases and financings of €35 million and
€42 million (January 3, 2016: €25 million and €43 million), respectively. Ahold Delhaize does not have legal title to these assets. Company-owned
investment property with a carrying amount of €93 million (January 3, 2016: €79 million) has been pledged as security for liabilities, mainly
for loans.
