French mall owner Klepierre cut its cash flow guidance on Friday, after shops stayed closed for longer than expected, bringing its first-quarter revenues down 11 percent.

Klepierre, Europe’s second-biggest retail landlord after Westfield-owner Unibail, now forecasts a net current cash flow of €1.80 per share for 2021 — compared to the €1.90 it had previously projected.

It said that 55 percent of its stores had already reopened and close to 95 percent were expected to be open by the end of May.
