  • As part of the preparation of the IFRS annual accounts, an impairment test was conducted to test if any of the goodwill on the balance sheet needs to be impaired.
  • The 2017 WACC (post tax) was 3.60% after 3.10% for 2016.
  • The increase in WACC is primarily driven by a higher base rate and lower debt leverage.
  • The higher WACC results in an impairment of the full goodwill amount allocated to Vonovia's Region East (predominantly Berlin) of €337m.
  • No impairment in any other region.
  • A WACC level similar to last year would have resulted in the same headroom as last year, supporting the view that the value growth seen in 2017 is supported by operating cash flow growth.

No impact on Adj. NAV, as the impairment only affects the goodwill and hence the EPRA NAV

Growing Contribution from Value-add Business

  1. Highlights 2. FY2017 results 3. Housekeeping 4. Wrap-up 5. Appendix

Concept

  • Expansion of core business to extend the value chain by offering additional services and products that are directly linked to our customers and/or the properties and offer the same cash flow stability as the rental business.
  • Insourcing of services to ensure maximum process management and cost control.
  • Two types of Value-add Business
    1. External income (e.g. multimedia, smart metering)
    1. Internal savings (e.g. craftsmen, resi environment)
  • New initiatives always follow same low risk pattern of
  • Prototype development
  • Proof of concept in pilot phase
  • Roll-out across portfolio

Economics

  • NAV does not account for Vonovia's Value-add Business.
  • Applying the impairment test WACC1 to the 2018E Adj. EBITDA Value-add Business translates into an additional value of ~€5.3 per share (~14% on top of current Adj. NAV).

  • Since indicating international interest Vonovia has seen a steady level of interest from Europe-wide brokers with investment opportunities. So far, these opportunities are mostly small in scale
  • Cooperation with cdc habitat in France (formerly "SNI"):
  • Benchmarking workshops carried out between November 2017 and January 2018
  • Basics of operations considered very similar (e.g. demand profile and type of tenants)
  • Supply side structures differ in the regulation of social housing
  • Vonovia more advanced in industrialization and efficiencies in leveraging its platform (Value-add Business)
  • Next steps: Detailed areas of co-operation currently being considered

Vonovia will continue to explore opportunities in large European metropolitan areas in line with our established acquisition criteria

  • Following the passing of Vonovia SE's former Chairman of the Supervisory Board, Dr. Wulf H. Bernotat, in late August 2017, Supervisory Board Member Prof. Dr. Edgar Ernst had been appointed Interim Chairman until the next Annual General Meeting.
  • The next AGM is scheduled for May 9, 2018, in Bochum, and Vonovia's Supervisory Board will propose Jürgen Fitschen as new member of the Supervisory Board. Following an approval by the AGM, Jürgen Fitschen is expected to be elected as the new Chairman of the Supervisory Board.
  • As previously announced, if the tender offer for Buwog AG is successful, Vitus Eckert, currently Chairman of Buwog AG's Supervisory Board, will be proposed as new member to the Supervisory Board of Vonovia SE.

  • As announced on August 4, 2017, Gerald Klinck will not seek an extension of his contract as Member of the Management Board of Vonovia SE and leave the Board upon termination of his current contract following the Annual General Meeting on May 9, 2018.

Assuming a tender ratio of at least 50% plus 1 share during the initial acceptance period and hence a successful transaction, Vonovia would take control just a few days prior to the end of the first quarter. In this case, for the release of Vonovia's Q1 results, Buwog would be consolidated in terms of balance sheet numbers but not in terms of income and cash flow statements.

While a detailed guidance for Vonovia including Buwog would not be possible at that point, we would be looking to provide the market with our best estimate for 2018 FFO 1.

  • Vonovia expects to perform a portfolio valuation update as per June 30, 2018, as
  • ongoing value growth can be observed in many markets throughout Germany;
  • Vonovia's internal accounting policies call for an interim valuation at the end of Q2 if the expected value shift is considered material; and
  • current market observations suggest a significant value uplift
  • For practical reasons and similar to Q2 2017, the valuation exercise will not cover the entire portfolio but a meaningful subset.
  • The valuation scope is currently envisaged to include
  • The 20 largest German cities by fair value
  • Additional locations for which meaningful value growth is expected
  • Vienna

  • Vonovia gave investors the choice between a cash dividend and a scrip dividend for the first time in the context of the 2017 AGM.

  • Nearly half of all shareholders opted for the scrip dividend.
  • For the 2018 AGM to be held on May 9, 2018, in Bochum, Vonovia intends to once again propose an optional scrip dividend, provided that the share price is not materially below the Adj. NAV per share when the final decision is taken.
  • The specifics will be laid out in the convening notice and related documentation to be published on or before March 29.
  • The final decision on whether to offer a scrip dividend alternative will be taken by the Supervisory Board just before the AGM.

  • Vonovia's 2018 Capital Markets Day will take place in Berlin

  • Agenda
  • June 4: Dinner at ca. 20:00

Investment Program Evolution

  • The investment program has not only grown in size but also in complexity.
  • While a yield-to-cost calculation is appropriate for investments that generate relatively quick pay-back periods, such as OA or UB, the larger investments space creation and neighborhood development generate value only over a longer period of time.
  • For these types of projects, an IRR calculation is more adequate and after using it for internal reporting purposes already from the program inception, we will now use this metric in the external reporting as well.
  • The target IRR for the overall investment program is >8%.
  • OA and UB will continue to be measured against a 7% yield-to-cost target.

Sustainability at a Glance

Integrated element of Vonovia's business model

With ca. 350,000 apartments throughout Germany, Vonovia is the country's leading residential real estate company. This role in the housing landscape imposes on us a particular responsibility to actively shape the development of the housing industry.

  1. Highlights 2. FY2017 results 3. Housekeeping 4. Wrap-up 5. Appendix

We aim to live up to the responsibility by pursuing a continuous dialogue with our stakeholder groups, and by considering social and ecological issues in our core activities. A key priority for us is to use our business model and our holistic approach to help resolve the most urgent challenges in the housing industry and make a positive contribution to social development.

Sustainability reporting at Vonovia

  • Separate Sustainability Reporting Unit at Vonovia.
  • Start Sustainability Reporting in 2015 with our first sustainability report published in 2016, based on GRI G4 guidelines.
  • Publication of second Sustainability Report in 2017, based on the new GRI standards (published in October 2016), report is available at:http://investoren.vonovia.de/websites/vonovia/English/7033/sustainability.html
  • Vonovia received the EPRA Silver Award for the 2016 Sustainability Report

Sustainability Report for 2017 to be published in June 2018

"Our sustainability approach results directly from our business model, on the one hand, and also addresses developments that influence our business, or which we can influence, on the other."

Vonovia's Sustainability approach

• Vonovia implements extensive measures to maintain and develop its portfolio, in particular, measures to improve the energy efficiency of the stock. This allows us to make a significant contribution to protecting our climate. At the same time, wellinsulated apartments increase efficiency and simultaneously reduce ancillary expenses for our customers.

• A nice, stable environment is part of a good residential atmosphere. Therefore, we become involved beyond our buildings and set trends with cities, companies and city planners, as well as with associations, initiatives and, last but not least, with our local customers for the sustainable development of entire neighborhoods.

Sustainability: Establishment within Vonovia

  • At the highest level, the CEO of Vonovia SE is responsible for sustainability.
  • The Audit Committee in particular handles sustainability on behalf of the Supervisory Board.
  • Vonovia established a new function, sustainability specialist, in 2017, in order to ensure that sustainability issues can be tackled in a more structured, cross-departmental manner and to expand our dialogue with stakeholders.

Sustainability Stakeholder Groups and Facts

We maintain regular and close contact with suppliers and service providers, the media, NGOs and the public sector.

  • Space creation for affordable living: annual run rate of 2,000 new apartments via floor addition, extension und densification
  • 10Neighbourhood Developments projects in 2018: We intend to increase the annual number from 2019 onwards.
  • We pursue the goal of renovating more than 3 % of our building stock with regard to energy-efficiency every year.
  • We will be investing in upgrading heating systems over the next few years, thus achieving annual CO2 savings of around 7,000 metric tons. And we will be investing in energy-efficient building upgrades. This is likely to result in a reduction in CO2 of around 28,000 metric tons in 2018. Our aim is to keep these investments at a stable level in the coming years.
  • Expansion of renewable energy sources, the targeted purchase of renewable energies and the entry into own electricity production via photovoltaic systems and cogeneration plants. We plan the construction of 5 large-scale cogeneration units in 2018 which will produce ca. 2 million kWh of electricity per year. We intend to add more than 500 photovoltaic facilities to our portfolio annually over the next years with an annual power generation of ca. 15 million kWh, corresponding to CO2 savings of approx. 8,500 metric tons per year.

  • German Olympic Sports Federation, representatives of the Sports Ministers' Conference and the German Chambers of Industry and Commerce honoured Vonovia as a top sports-friendly company in 2017

Rental regulation safeguards high degree of stability

  • Contrary to most other jurisdictions such as the USA, rental growth in Germany is regulated and not directly linked to CPI, GDP development etc.
  • Rents are regulated via "Mietspiegel" (city-specific rent indices), which look at the asking rents of the previous four years to determine a rent growth level for existing tenants for the next two years.

Sources: Federal Statistics Office, GdW (German Association of Professional Homeowners), REIS, BofA Merrill Lynch Global Research, OECD. Note: Due to lack of q-o-q US rent growth data, the annual rent growth for a year is assumed to also be the q-o-q rent growth of that year.

German Residential – Landlords Benefit from Structural Imbalance between Supply and Demand

  1. Highlights 2. FY2017 results 3. Housekeeping 4. Wrap-up 5. Appendix

New supply falls short of demand

  • Consensus estimates see a current shortage of around 1 million apartments in urban areas. Three main constraints stand in the way of material changes in the short and even medium term:
  • Building permits often take several years because city administrations lack qualified personnel.
  • Severe shortage of building capacity after years of downsizing.
  • Substantial gap between in-place values and market replacement cost render construction in affordable segment economically unfeasible.

German Residential – Favorable Fundamentals

  1. Highlights 2. FY2017 results 3. Housekeeping 4. Wrap-up 5. Appendix

  2. While the overall population in Germany is expected to slightly decline, the number of households is forecast to grow until at least 2035 with a clear trend towards smaller households.

  3. The household growth is driven by various demographic and social trends including divorce rates, employment mobility etc.

Distribution of household sizes (million)

  • Germany is the largest housing market in Europe with ~42m housing units, of which ~23m are rental units.
  • Ownership structure is highly fragmented and majority of owners are non-professional landlords.
  • Listed sector represents ~4% of total rental market.

  • On February 7, the coalition partners CDU, CSU and SPD signed a coalition agreement1 that will serve as the basis for their work in the current legislative period. The following is an overview of the main elements of the coalition agreement as far as the housing market is concerned.
  • The overriding objective of the coalition agreement is to secure the affordability of housing for tenants while safeguarding modernization investments that are aimed towards successfully coping with climate change and demographic challenges. The proposed measures in terms of regulation suggest that the coalition partners are specifically targeting rogue landlords, who push the envelope by carrying out costly modernization at the expense of their tenants, as well as speculative land buyers.

Update on German Housing Market Regulation
1. Highlights 2. FY2017 results 3. Housekeeping 4. Wrap-up 5. Appendix
Modernization allocation
Coalition Agreement Expected Impact
Article 559 of the German Civil Code provides that up to 11% of the
investment amount of a modernization project can be allocated to the
annual rent of the property in perpetuity, provided the underlying work
is modernization/value enhancing (i.e. not maintenance).
This measure will have a larger impact on landlords that carry out
expensive modernizations and a smaller impact on landlords that do
more efficient modernization work.
The coalition partners want to reduce the 11% to 8%. This shall
only apply to areas with a lower "Kappungsgrenze,"
i.e. locations
where rent growth on existing tenancies can be no more than 15% over
three years (instead of 20%).1 This is within the discretion of the
federal states and implemented in various ways by some and not by
others. The coalition agreement states that this measure shall be
reviewed after five years.
Historically, Vonovia has had an average allocation of around 7% of the
investment amount, which is also the required average hurdle rate for
approving the annual modernization budget. Hence, a reduction from
11% to 8% would have a minor impact on Vonovia.
As this applies to some and not to other regions, Vonovia will also have
the opportunity to direct investment funds to those regions that are not
affected.
€3.00 per sqm
rent growth cap following a modernization
Coalition Agreement Expected Impact
The coalition partners want to cap the absolute rent growth
after a modernization to a maximum of €3.00 per sqm
and
extend the moratorium on modernization-related rent growth
form currently three to six years.
This measure appears to be primarily aimed towards rogue landlords
who use the modernization allocation to carry out luxury
modernizations in order to implement excessive rent growth. Business
models that push the envelope on the back of tenants by carrying out
costly modernizations will find this to be more difficult going forward.
Historically, out of thousands of modernization projects carried out by
Vonovia only a small fraction have led to a rent growth of more than €3
per square meter, so this measure will not impact Vonovia.

Markets with a Detailed Mietspiegel
might see a time delay in rental
growth or an expansion of the time frame under which rent growth can
be implemented. It is unlikely that the main intended impact, lower
costs for municipalities, will actually materialize.
This legislation would have a limited impact on Vonovia and mostly
affect the timing of rent growth.
Extension of reference period for Mietspiegel
Coalition Agreement Expected Impact
The coalition partners want to review the length of the reference
period that serves as a basis for drafting a new Mietspiegel. The
current reference period is 4 years.
The coalition agreement only includes one sentence, expressing the
parties' intentions to "review" the reference period without any further
specifics. The absence of any concrete language or plans suggests that
there was little common ground during the coalition talks, hence the
rather unspecific reference to review the issue at a later date.
Any legislation in that direction would most likely prove to be rather
difficult given the absence of comparable data on a continuous basis, as
criteria and other parameters in the different Mietspiegel
keep changing.
In the absence of any specifics on this subject, the actual impact this
could have on Vonovia cannot be estimated at this point. It is clear,
however, that an extension of the reference period would have material
negative consequences on the entire industry, and Vonovia would also
be affected.

thresholds (€90k in cases of families with one child and an additional Vonovia does not expect any substantial upward pressure on prices for
€15k for each additional child) its assets on the basis of these plans.
Subsidies
Coalition Agreement Expected Impact
The coalition agreement includes various examples how the new
government would aim to subsidize energy efficient modernizations and
renovations to enable the elderly to live in their homes longer.
Modernization of the housing stock and more affordable construction of
new apartments are key for the German housing market.
The coalition partners have also agreed to promote serial and modular
construction and expressed their intention to support the individual
federal states to streamline the building permit process and to
investigate possibilities for serial construction permissions (potentially
not dissimilar to the car industry, where a certain model receives
standard approval rather than each vehicle being approved
individually).
Vonovia is a strong supporter of energy-efficient modernization,
renovation of apartments for the elderly and intelligent, affordable
space creation, as indicated by the annual €1bn investment program.
Any further progress or additional support in this direction would be
welcomed as a positive for the business.

Valuation methodology for German residential properties is primarily based on market prices for assets – not on interest rates

  • While market prices are affected by general interest rate levels, there is no significant correlation.
  • Other factors such as supply/demand imbalance, rental regulation, market rent growth, location of assets etc. outweigh the impact of interest rates when it comes to pricing residential real estate.
  • The steep decline in interest rates (down by 760bps since 1992) is not mirrored by asset yields (down by 120bps since 1992).
  • Asset yields outperformed interest rates by 240bps on average since 1992 and 550bps in June 2016.

Yearly asset yields vs. rolling 200d average of 10y interest rates

Sources: Thomson Reuters, bulwiengesa

High degree of stability and predictability of underlying business (layer 1) and portfolio valuation (layer 2) is not reflected in share price development (layer 3), as equity markets appear to apply valuation parameters that are substantially less material for Vonovia's operating performance.
