alstria's revenues and earnings developed as planned in the reporting period. Rental income increased by 1.7 % to EUR 91,552 k (previous year: EUR 90,003 k), mainly due to revenues from new leases, indexations as well as revenues from leases of the properties acquired in the fiscal year 2021. The increase was slightly offset by the scheduled expiry of leases and transaction-related changes in sales.
The consolidated net income for the reporting period amounted to EUR 47,334 k (H1 2021: EUR 53,636 k). The decrease is primarily due to higher personnel expenses, reflecting an increase in the compensation for virtual shares and stock options due to the restructuring of compensation components as a result of the takeover by Brookfield by EUR 1,644 k and an increase in salaries by EUR 1,830 k. Other operating expenses also went up by EUR 3,453 k compared to the prior-year period and mainly caused by higher expenses for the valuation of minority interests. Other operating income includes EUR 5,068 k due to compensation payments resulting from the delayed move-in of tenants. In addition, the net financial result decreased by EUR 2,331 k year-on-year to EUR -15,154 k, mainly due to the commitment fee for the bridge facility.
To provide a clear picture of the Group's operating performance, alstria also publishes the operating result (FFO after minorities), which amounted to EUR 59,483 k in the reporting period (H1 2021: EUR 58,453 k). Net rental income was up by EUR 1,025 k and other operating income up by EUR 5,690 k which was partly offset by higher personnel expenses (EUR 1,709 k) and a lower net financial result (EUR 1,412 k).
The reconciliation of consolidated net income to FFO is based on eliminating non-cash income items, items that are not expected to recur annually, non-periodic items and items that do not serve the operating business. The adjustments between the income figures in the income statement and FFO are shown in the table on the next page. The most significant adjustments (> EUR 1,000 k) in the current reporting period related to non-cash personnel expenses (EUR 3,910 k), non-cash other operating expenses (EUR 4,604 k) and expenses not attributable to the operating business in the financial result (EUR 3,272 k). Adjustments shown in the table are related primarily to the costs associated with the bridge facility. The adjustments in the operating expenses mainly relate to the valuation of the limited partner capital.

1) Numbers may not sum up due to rounding.
2) The operating financial result contains interest expenses for financial liabilities, which are used for the financing of the existing portfolio. The nonoperating financial result contains interest expenses for financial liabilities, which are not used for the financing of the existing portfolio. This concerns the interest expenses for already refinanced financial liabilities and financial liabilities intended for future property investments.
3) FFO is not a measure of operating performance or liquidity under generally accepted accounting principles — in particular, IFRS — and should not be considered an alternative to the Company's income or cash flow measures as determined in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, there is no standard definition for FFO. Thus, alstria's FFO values and the measures with similar names presented by other companies may not be comparable.
The fair value of investment property amounted to EUR 4,789,192 k as of June 30, 2022, which was slightly over the December 31, 2021, level (EUR 4,775,801 k). The increase resulted from investments made in the existing portfolio during the first half of 2022 (EUR 39,607 k). The increase was partly compensated by the disposal of a property in Düsseldorf (EUR 25,000 k).

Operationally, the first half of the financial year 2022 developed as expected. Against this backdrop, alstria confirms the forecast for the expected revenues for the financial year 2022 in the amount of approximately EUR 183 million. The new capital structure announced with the acquisition by Brookfield and the associated increase in the leverage ratio will increase the financing expenses and thus burden the FFO. However, the increased financing expenses in the current year will be offset by lower than planned real estate operating expenses and higher other operating income. In total, this results in an unchanged FFO forecast of EUR 106 million for 2022. The conclusion of a new lease agreement for a property in Darmstadt does not yet have any impact on the forecast, as the lease agreement does not start until mid-2023.
alstria is exposed to various risks through its business activities. Please refer to the detailed descriptions in the Annual Report 2021. The economic environment was decisively impacted in the first half of the year by the Ukraine war and the subsequent intensification of energy and supply chain issues. The immediate consequences are high inflation rates and rapidly rising interest rates. This has had an impact on the risk assessment of financing costs, on which now is monitored even closer than before. Beyond this, there have been no significant changes to the risk situation described in the 2021 consolidated financial statements.
The half-year financial report contains statements relating to anticipated future developments. These statements are based on current assessments and are, by their very nature, exposed to risks and uncertainty. Actual developments may differ from those predicted in these statements.

alstria office REIT-AG, Hamburg Notes to the condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2022
alstria office REIT-AG (hereinafter referred to as 'the Company' or 'alstria office REIT-AG', together with its subsidiaries, referred to as 'alstria' or 'the Group'), is a German stock corporation based in Hamburg.
Alexandrite Lake Lux Holdings S.à r.l., a holding company controlled by one of the private real estate funds of Brookfield Asset Management Inc. ("Brookfield"), had made a voluntary public takeover offer to the shareholders of the Company on December 13, 2021 to acquire all of the no-par value shares of alstria against payment of a cash consideration per alstria share. The total number of alstria shares to be considered for the minimum acceptance threshold was reached for the first time on January 11, 2022 ("Brookfield Takeover"). This corresponded to a share of 50.50% of the share capital. The company was thus to be included in the consolidated financial statements of Alexandrite's ultimate parent company, Brookfield Asset Management Inc., Toronto, Canada (hereinafter "Brookfield"), for the first time on January 11, 2022.
The Group's principal activities are described in detail in Section 1 of the Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the financial year ending on December 31, 2021.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period from January 1, 2022, to June 30, 2022 (hereinafter referred to as the 'consolidated interim financial statements'), were authorized for publication by a resolution of the Company's Management Board on July 28, 2022.
These consolidated interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting'. They do not contain all the disclosures and explanations required in the annual financial statements; they should therefore be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021.
The applied accounting policies are consistent with the policies applied and outlined in the Group's annual financial statements for the year ending on December 31, 2021.

At the beginning of the reporting period, three Group companies were terminated by accretion as a result of the departure of their sole general partner. There have been no further changes to the consolidated Group since the preparation of the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021.
Preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires assumptions and estimates to be made for various items. These assumptions and estimates affect the amounts of disclosures concerning assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual amounts may vary from these estimates. There were no changes compared to the key judgments and estimates described in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Personnel expenses increased by EUR 4,346 k or 42.4 %. This increase is mainly due to one-off effects from the restructuring of compensation components as a result of the takeover by Brookfield and severance payments for employees who have left the company.
See also Sections 11 and 12 for information on expenses for long-term remuneration.
Other operating income includes, in particular gains from damages for late move-in by tenants (EUR 5.1 m), compensation for warranties (EUR 1.0 m) and government grants (EUR 0.9 million). In the first half of the previous year, other operating income includes compensation payments from tenants (EUR 1.6 m) and the reversal of allowance for doubtful accounts (EUR 0.7 m).

Cash and cash equivalents amount to EUR 331,329 k (Dec. 31, 2021: EUR 313,684 k). As of the balance sheet date, EUR 11,300 k (Dec. 31, 2021: EUR 0 k) of cash and cash equivalents were subject to restrictions on disposal. They were deposited as collateral for two loans. Of this, EUR 8,000 k was released by July 19, 2022 and EUR 3,300 k is expected to be restricted until the end of the period.
Financial assets of EUR 94,777 k (Dec. 31, 2021: EUR 39,185 k) are related to long-term deposits in the amount of EUR 94,432 k (Dec. 31, 2021: EUR 38,864) and a term up to the end of the 2032 financial year. A further amount of EUR 345 k is attributable to below 3 %-shares in two companies on which alstria cannot exert any significant influence.
At EUR 55,568 k, the increase in financial assets is based on an increase in loans. In addition, there were write-ups of EUR 24 k.
Please refer to the consolidated statement of changes in equity for details.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company held no treasury shares.
As of June 30, 2022, alstria's total interest-bearing debt, which consists of corporate bonds and loan balances drawn, amounted to EUR 1,663,333 k (Dec. 31, 2021: EUR 1,716,788 k). The differing carrying amount of EUR 1,663,694 k (non-current: EUR 1,287,290 k; current: EUR 376,404 k) takes into account the interest liabilities and transaction costs allocated according to the effective interest rate method at the time when the loans in question were taken out, as well as the distribution of repayment grants from the public sector over the maturity of the respective loans.
Financial liabilities with a maturity of up to one year are recognized as current loans. The fair value of non-current and current financial liabilities amounted to EUR 1,630,035 k as at the reporting date.
In the reporting period, the company repaid loan with a total nominal amount of EUR 45,900 k.
As a result, financial Liabilities include bank loans in the nominal amount of EUR 150,000 k, the KfW-Loans in the nominal amount of EUR 13,366 k, a promissory note loan with a nominal value of EUR 77,000 k and corporate bonds in the nominal amount of EUR 1,425,000 k, as of June 30, 2022. In addition, there is a revolving credit line with a volume of EUR 200,000 k, from which no loan amounts had been utilized as of the balance sheet date.
For a detailed description of the loans, including their terms and securities, please refer to Section 7.3 of the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021.

1)Refers to all shares at the dividend payment date.
At the Annual General Meeting held on June 10, 2022, alstria office REIT-AG resolved to distribute dividends totaling EUR 7,121 k (EUR 0.04 per outstanding share). The dividends were distributed on June 15, 2022. By comparison, the dividends paid out in 2021 totaled EUR 94,230 k (EUR 0.53 per outstanding share).
From January 1 to June 30, 2022, the Company had 174 employees on average (average for January 1 to June 30, 2021: 168 employees). The average number of employees was calculated based on the total number of employees at the end of each month. On June 30, 2022, 181 people (December 31, 2021: 171 people) were employed at alstria office REIT-AG, not including the Management Board.
A share-based remuneration system was implemented for members of the Management Board as part of alstria's success-based remuneration. This share-based remuneration is made up of a long-term component, the Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTI), and a short-term component, the Short-Term Incentive Plan (STI). The LTI (so-called stock awards) was originally granted as an equity-settled sharebased remuneration. At the end of the previous financial year, the conversion conditions were changed so that the outstanding stock awards had to be settled in cash
The development of the virtual shares and stock awards through June 30, 2022, is shown in the following table:
| Jan. 1 – June 30, 2022 | Jan. 1 - Dec. 31, 2021 | |
|---|---|---|
| Number of stock awards | LTI | LTI |
| As of Jan. 1 | 234,620 | 240,817 |
| Granted in the reporting period | 0 | 63,247 |
| Terminated in the reporting period | -234,620 | -69,444 |
| As of June 30/Dec. 31 | 0 | 234,620 |
In the first half of 2022, the LTI generated remuneration expenses with a total balance of EUR 2,095 k (expenses in H1 2021: EUR 673 k). The increase in LTI expenses is due to the termination of all outstanding stock awards. The reason for this is the low market capitalization of freely tradable alstria shares that remained after the Brookfield takeover. As a result, alstria's share price performance is no longer conclusive and therefore the calculation of the LTI based on the share price performance under the Management Board Remuneration System 2021 has lost its function. Against this background, the performance periods of any outstanding LTI tranches granted to members of the management board for previous years up to and including financial year 2021 (i.e. LTI 2019/2023, LTI 2020/2024, LTI 2021/2025), were be ended early with effect as of February 3, 2022 and paid out in cash without undue delay afterwards. The LTI 2022/2026 granted to the members of the management board in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Management Board Remuneration System 2021 was converted to the Management Board Remuneration System 2022.
The exercise of all 234,620 stock awards in the first half of 2022 resulted in payments of EUR 6,591 k. Please refer to Section 13.1 of the consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2021, for a detailed description of the employee profit participation rights program.
As part of the new remuneration system 2022, the members of the Management Board receive certificates with a term of two years, the performance of which is linked to certain budget-based performance indicators. At the end of the term, a payment is made in cash, whereby the performance and the amount of the payment can be between 0% and 115% depending on the development of the based performance indicators. In the reporting period, the members of the Management Board were granted 900,000 certificates with a nominal value of EUR 1.00 each, retrospectively as of January 1, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, assuming 100% target achievement, EUR 222 kwas accrued on a pro rata basis.
During the reporting period, the following share-based payment agreements (certificates) were in place with respect to the convertible profit participation rights scheme that the Supervisory Board of alstria office REIT-AG established.
| Number of certificates | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Granting date of tranche | Sept. 30, 2020 | May 7, 2021 | Total |

For a detailed description of the employee profit participation rights program, please refer to Section 13.2 of the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021.
Beginning in the 2022 financial year, new variable remuneration components were also set up for employees. The employees also receive certificates (so-called ACES) as part of the "alstria Collective Employee Scheme". The ACES have a term of two years and their performance is linked to certain budget-based indicators. At the end of the term, a payment is made in cash, whereby the performance and the amount of the payment can be between 0% and 115% depending on the development of the based key figures. In the reporting period, the employees were granted 2,752,583 certificates with a nominal value of EUR 1.00 each, retrospectively as of January 1, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, assuming 100% target achievement, EUR 680 k was accrued on a pro rata basis.
No significant legal transactions were executed with respect to related parties during the reporting period, except for virtual shares being granted to the members of the Company's Management Board, as laid out in detail in note 11.

The management board has convened an extraordinary general meeting at August 31, 2022 and proposed, in agreement with the supervisory board, to distribute from the retained earnings of alstria office REIT-AG in addition to already approved at the Annual General Meeting and distributed dividend of EUR 0.04 per outstanding share, a further dividend of EUR 2.81 per dividend-entitled share for the 2021 financial year. The payment of this dividend is subject to the approval of the Extraordinary General Meeting scheduled for August 31, 2022. The proposed additional dividend of EUR 2.81 per share for the 2021 financial year corresponds to a distribution of around EUR 500.3 million, based on the number of shares entitled to a dividend for the past half year as of the balance sheet date.
