Rostock, 29 May 2018 - Deutsche Industrie REIT-AG (ISIN DE000A2G9LL1) has completed its first half-year as a listed company very successfully.

Real estate portfolio grown to EUR 89 million

In the first half-year of the 2017/2018 financial year (1 October 2017 - 31 March 2018), the portfolio grew significantly due to acquisitions. Five purchased properties have been transferred. The real estate portfolio, recognised as of 31 March 2018, comprises 11 Light Industrial properties with an annualised total rent of around EUR 10.0 million.

Furthermore, ten properties with an investment volume of EUR 52.5 million have already been acquired. Following the transfer of ownership of these properties, the total portfolio comprises 21 properties and generates an annualised rent of around EUR 15.0 million.

In addition, we are currently reviewing additional properties and are in promising negotiations, so we expect additional growth.

Positive Net income

The rental income increased to EUR 4.2 million due to the growth in the stock. While the result for the period amounts to EUR 5.4 million, the FFO (Funds From Operations) has reached nearly
EUR 2.7 million.

The NAV (Net Asset Value) as of 31st March 2018 was EUR 2.50 and the Net LTV, stood at 56.2%.

FFO-Forecast for the FY 2017/2018 increased

Due to the good half-year result and the acquisitions made, as well as additional growth, we are increasing our forecast and expect an FFO between EUR 5 million and EUR 6 million for the 2017/2018 financial year.

The FFO - run rate (annualised FFO without periodic matching effects) is still forecasted at EUR 9 million to EUR 10 million at the end of the 2017/2018 financial year due to expected higher interest expenses.
