Value development

The following table shows the distribution of assets by market segment. As scheduled, an interim revaluation of the portfolio was conducted as at 30 June 2017. This resulted in an increase of the gross asset value by eur 480 million or 6.0% compared to the property portfolio as at the beginning of the financial year (including acquisitions) which was particularly due to the dynamic development of in-place rents and target rents. The average value of the residential properties amounted to eur 999 per sqm as at 30 June 2017 (including acquisitions; 31 December 2016: eur 930 per sqm). The rental yield of the portfolio based on in-place rents was 6.3% (rent multiplier: 15.9). The valuation of the residential portfolio corresponds to an epra net initial yield of 4.65%

In the reporting period 1 January to 30 June 2017 net cold rent increased by 5.7% (+eur 14.3 million) against the comparative period (1 January to 30 June 2016). While maintaining a steady cost base, net rental and lease income increased disproportionately by 6.5% to eur 202.7 million.

Adjusted ebitda increased by 7.4% to eur 193.8 million. Adjusted ebitda margin climbed from 72.4% (comparative period) to 73.5% in the reporting period.

For the first time in an interim financial report, leg conducted a fair value measurement of investment property leading to a valuation gain of eur 480.1 million as of 30 June 2017. One-time expenses in the first quarter of the comparative period caused by the purchase of a real estate portfolio of 13,570 units as of 1 April 2016 contributes with eur 34.7 million to the increase of operating earnings by eur 527.1 million in the reporting period.

Additional interest expenses caused by refinancing amounted to eur –12.0 million (comparative period eur –4.5 million).

Cash interest expenses declined against the comparative period by eur 0.8 million to eur –40.5 million despite a higher financing volume.

In the first half of 2017, current income tax expenses of eur –3.3 million were recorded reducing net income after taxes.

In the reporting period, the leg Group increased its net rental and lease income by eur 12.3 million compared with the same period of the previous year. The main driver of this development was the eur 14.3 million rise in net cold rents. In-place rent per square metre on a like-for-like basis rose by 3.0% in the reporting period.

Due to the acquisition of 51% of the shares of Technik ServicePlus GmbH (tsp) and the consequential consolidation as at 1 January 2017 the leg Group provides the main part of the maintenance services on their own. As a result, the staff costs climbed by eur 5.9 million whereas the externally procured maintenance decreased.

Adjusted by the effect of the own provided maintenance services the rental-related staff costs developed at a slightly slower rate (4.7%) than the net cold rent (increase of 5.7%).

The noi margin of 76.9% was slightly higher than in the comparative period (76.3%).

The epra vacancy rate, which is the ratio of rent lost due to vacancy to potential rent in the event of full occupancy, came up to 3.4% on a like-for-like basis as at 30 June 2017.

Income from disposals of investment properties rose by eur 36.6 million against the comparative period to eur 57.3 million. The disposals of carrying amount increased by eur 37.6 million in the reporting period.

The realised income included primarily sales of investment properties, which were reported as assets held for sale and were remeasured up to the agreed property value as of 31 December 2016.

A subsequent sales price adjustment of eur –0.7 million was recognised affecting net profit from disposal of investment property in the second quarter of 2017.

Net income from the remeasurement of investment property

As of 30 June 2017, leg conducted a half-year fair value measurement of investment property for the first time in an interim financial report.

Net income from remeasurement amounted to eur 480.1 million in the reporting period which corresponds to a 6.0% rise (incl. acquisitions) compared to the start of the financial year.

The average value of investment property (incl. ifrs 5 objects) is eur 999 per square metre including acquisitions (31 December 2016: eur 930 per square metre) and eur 1,000 per square metre excluding acquisitions.

The increase in property value reflects the dynamic development of in place and target rents. The discount rate remained unchanged compared to 31 December 2016 and therefore had no impact on net income from remeasurement of investment property.

Net income from the disposal of real estate inventory

The sale of the remaining properties of the former "Development" division continued as planned in the reporting period.

The remaining real estate inventory held as at 30 June 2017 amounted to eur 2.8 million, of which eur 1.4 million related to land under development.

The main driver for the reduction in administrative and other expenses by eur 35.3 million year-on-year were incidental acquisition and integration costs for portfolio acquisitions in the comparative period in the amount of eur 34.7 million.

Taking volume growth into account, current administrative expenses climbed only moderately by 4.5%.

NET FINANCE EARNINGS –57.5 –39.3 –103.6 –86.4

The increase of interest expenses from eur 61.1 million in the comparative period to eur 64.5 million in the reporting period results primarily from the effects of the refinancing concluded in the reporting period. Expenses of eur 12.0 million were incurred for this purpose in the reporting period, which comprised additional loan amortisation (eur 4.9 million), prepayment penalties for fixed rate loans (eur 0.4 million) and swap breakage fees (eur 7.4 million). eur 0.7 million of the swap breakage fees were looked ahead in the previous years.

On 23 January 2017 leg issued a corporate bond with a nominal value of eur 500.0 million, annual interest expenses of 1.34% and a maturity of seven years.

In June 2017 commercial papers amounting to eur 200.0 million were issued. The issue was split into three tranches with a maturity of three, four and five months. The weighted average interest rate is –0.07% p.a.

As a result, the average interest rate was reduced to 1.85% as at 30 June 2017 (2.04% as at 31 December 2016 and 2.09% as at 30 June 2016) based on an average term of 8.98 years (11.05 years as at 31 December 2016).

Without the short term commercial papers average interest rate would be 1.95% as at 30 June 2017 at an average maturity of 9.41 years.

Interest expense from loan amortisation raised by eur 2.8 million year-on-year to eur 14.6 million. The one-time, additional amortisation expense amounted to eur 4.9 million. As a result of the refinancing, the lower scheduled amortisation acted against.

In the reporting period, net income from the fair value measurement of derivatives resulted primarily from changes in the fair value of derivatives from the convertible bond in the amount of eur –42.3 million (comparative period: eur –21.2 million).

INCOME TAX EXPENSES –122.8 –14.8 –137.2 –27.1

An effective Group tax rate of 22.5% was assumed in the reporting period in accordance with Group tax planning (previous year: 22.7%).

The significantly higher level of earnings before taxes due to the valuation gain from the remeasurement of investment property for the first time in an interim financial report is the main driver of the year-on-year increase in income tax expense by eur 110.1 million to eur 137.2 million.

Reconciliation to ffo

ffo i is a key financial performance indicator of the leg Group. The leg Group distinguishes between ffo i (not including net income from the disposal of investment properties), ffo ii (including net income from the disposal of investment properties) and affo (ffo i adjusted for capex). The calculation methods for these key figures can be found in the glossary in the annual report.

ffo i, ffo ii and affo were calculated as follows in the reporting period and the same period of the previous year:

At eur 148.8 million, ffo i was 8.1% higher in the reporting period than in the same period of the previous year (eur 137.6 million). In particular, this increase is attributable to the rise in net cold rent including the effects of the acquisitions concluded, in connection with a slightly higher ebitda margin and a reduced average interest rate.

The reduced average interest rate due to the refinancing is reflected in the increase of the interest coverage ratio (ratio of adjusted ebitda to cash interest expense) at 479% in the reporting period (comparative period: 437%) despite a slightly rised Loan to Value (ltv) ratio.

Condensed statement of financial position

A fair value measurement of investment property was conducted as at 30 June 2017 for the first time in an interim financial report. The resulting profit from remeasurement of investment property (eur 480.1 million) was the main driver for the increase compared to 31 December 2016. Furthermore additions from acquisitions (eur 28.9 million, of which eur 27.3 million reclassifications from prepayments as at December 31, 2016) and capitalisation of property modernisation measures contributed to the increase of investment properties.

Prepayments of eur 258.4 million were paid for the acquisition of a property portfolio with 1,792 units. The closing was at 1 July 2017 (for further information about this transaction, please see the group notes, section "events after the reporting period").

The recognition of real estate tax expense as other inventories (eur 10.5 million) for the remainder of the financial year, the deferral of prepaid operating costs (eur 30.3 million) and the development of the receivables from not yet invoiced operating costs (increase by eur 13.7 million) significantly contribute to the development of the current assets.

Cash and cash equivalents remained stable (decrease by eur –5.2 million to eur 161.5 million). This development was mainly due to the cash flow from operating activities (eur 107.9 million), offset by payments for acquisitions and modernisations (net cash outflow eur –271.1 million). The financing of the investments lead to receipts from new loans of eur 707.3 million. Scheduled and unscheduled repayments of loans amounted to a cash outflow of eur –372.5 million.

A dividend of eur 174.4 million has been paid for financial year 2016.

The development of equity was primarily due to the net profit for the period (eur 423.3 million) and the dividend payment (eur –174.4 million).

Due to the refinancing the non-current financing liabilities increased by eur 327.7 million. The decrease of current financing liabilities resulting from the refinancing was compensated by the issue of commercial papers (eur 200.0 million). Current financing liabilities therefore remained stable compared to 31 December 2016.

Driven by the property valuation, deferred tax liabilities increased by eur 134.0 million as at 30 June 2017. swap

repayments in the course of the refinancing in the first quarter of 2017 and the remeasurement of the remaining interest rate swaps led to a decrease of negative fair value by eur 19.5 million. Both effects are recognised in other non-current liabilitites.

Due to the remeasurement of the derivatives of the convertible bond, other current liabilities climbed by eur 42.4 million. Liabilities from operating expenses not invoiced yet climbed by eur 7.8 million. Furthermore, eur 15.9 million operating expenses had to be accrued as well as real estate tax for the remainder of the financial year amounting to eur 10.7 million.

Net asset value (NAV)

A further key metric relevant in the property industry is nav. The calculation method for the respective key figure can be found in the glossary in the 2016 annual report.

The leg Group reported a basic epra nav of eur 4,597.8 million as at 30 June 2017. The effects of the possible conversion of the convertible bond are shown by the additional calculation of diluted epra nav. After further adjustment for goodwill effects, adjusted diluted epra nav amounted to eur 5,040.6 million at the reporting date.

Loan-to-value ratio (ltv)

Net gearing in relation to property assets slightly rose in the reporting period as compared with 31 December 2016 due to the dividend payment and the financing of an acquisition with closing at 1 Juli 2017. The fair value measurement of investment properties acted against. The loan-to-value ratio (ltv) as at 30 June 2017 is therefore 45.3% (31 December 2016: 44.9%).

Financial position

A net profit for the period of eur 423.3 million was realised in the reporting period (comparative period: eur 23.5 million). Equity amounted to eur 3,688.9 million at the reporting date (31 December 2016: eur 3,436.7 million). This corresponds to an equity ratio of 40.1% (31 December 2016: 40.7%).

Higher receipts from net cold rent also had a positive impact on the net cash flow from operating activities in the reporting period.

Acquisitions and modernisation work on the existing portfolio contributed to the net cash flow from investing activities with cash payments of eur –280.8 million. Furthermore, cash proceeds from property disposals (eur 9.7 million) resulted in a net cash flow from investing activities of eur –272.4 million.

The issue of a corporate bond (net cash inflow eur 495.0 million) for the early refinancing of subsidized loans and bank loans as well as scheduled repayments (eur –372.5 million), the issue of commercial papers (eur 200.0 million) and the dividend payment (eur –174.4 million) were the main drivers of the cashflow from financing activities of eur 159.3 million.

The leg Group's solvency was ensured at all times in the reporting period.

S E L ECT E D NOT E S O N THE IFRS INTERIM CONSOLIDATED F I N A N C I A L STAT E M E N TS AS AT 3 0 JUNE 2017

1. BASIC INFORMATION ON THE GROUP

leg Immobilien ag, Dusseldorf (hereinafter: "leg Immo"), its subsidiary leg nrw GmbH, Dusseldorf (hereinafter: "leg") and the subsidiaries of the latter company (hereinafter referred to collectively as the "leg Group") are among the largest residential companies in Germany. The leg Group held a portfolio of 128.226 units (residential and commercial) on 30 June 2017.

leg Immo and its subsidiaries engage in two core activities as an integrated property company: the value-adding long-term management of its residential property portfolio in connection with the strategic acquisition of residential portfolios in order to generate economies of scale for its management platform and the expansion of tenant-oriented services.

The interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in euros. Unless stated otherwise, all figures have been rounded to millions of Euro (Euro million). For technical reasons, tables and references can include rounded figures that differ from the exact mathematical values.

2. INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

leg Immo prepared the interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with the provisions of the International Financial Reporting Standards (ifrs) for interim reporting, as endorsed in the eu, and their interpretation by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (ifric). Based on the option under ias 34.10, the notes to the financial statements were presented in a condensed form. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not been audited or subjected to an audit review.

The leg Group primarily generates income from the rental and letting of investment properties. Rental and lease business, in essence, is unaffected by seasonal and cyclical influences.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies applied in the interim consolidated financial statements of the leg Group are the same as those presented in the ifrs consolidated financial statements of leg Immo as of 31 December 2016. These interim consolidated financial statements as at 30 June 2017 should therefore be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2016.

The leg Group has fully applied the new standards and interpretations that are mandatory from 1 January 2017. There are no effects on the net assets, financial position and results of operations position.

4. CHANGES IN THE GROUP

As at 1 January 2017 tsp-TechnikServicePlus GmbH was acquired and consolidated for the first time. The acquisition of the shares is a business combination (see section 5).

5. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

On 14 December 2016, leg Immo signed a purchase agreement with b&o Service und Messtechnik ag to acquire 51% of shares in tsp-TechnikServicePlus GmbH (formerly: b&o Service West GmbH). 280 employees were taken on in the context of the transaction. Following antitrust approval, the transaction was closed as at 1 January 2017.

As at 1 January 2017, the acquisition of the company is treated as a business combination as defined by ifrs 3 as significant business processes had been acquired.

Interim consolidated financial statements SELECTED NOTES

The purchase price allocation is final as at 30 June 2017. The consideration for the business combination breaks down as follows:

8.9 11.3 –2.4
final

Synergies from tax and cost benefits of an estimated seven-figure amount per year are expected.

6. JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with ifrs requires assumptions and estimates to be made that affect the recognition of assets and liabilities, income and expenses and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. These assumptions and estimates particularly relate to the measurement of investment properties, the recognition and measurement of pension provisions, the recognition and measurement of other provisions, the measurement of financing liabilities, and the eligibility for recognition of deferred tax assets.

Although the management believes that the assumption and estimates used are appropriate, any unforeseeable changes in these assumptions could impact the net assets, financial position and results of operations.

For further information, please refer to the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2016.

7. SELECTED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION

On 30 June 2017, the leg Group held 127,063 apartments and 1,163 commercial units in its portfolio.

Investment property developed as follows in the financial year 2016 and in 2017 up to the reporting date of the interim consolidated financial statements:

The acquisitions include primarily the acquisition of a property portfolio of around 322 residential units, which was notarised on 17 August 2016. The portfolio generates annual net cold rent of initially around eur 2.0 million. The average in-place rent is eur 4.62 per square metre; the initial vacancy rate is 2.1%. The transaction was closed on 1 January 2017. The portfolio acquisition does not constitute a business combination.

Concerning the prepayments of investment properties see section 13.

Investment property is measured by the leg Group for the first time during the period as of 30 June 2017.

The fair values of investment property are calculated on the basis of the forecast net cash flows from property management using the discounted cash flow (dcf) method.

The table below shows the parameters which determine the dcf-measurement as of 30 June 2017.

In addition, the leg Group's portfolio still includes land and buildings accounted for in accordance with ias 16.

Cash and cash equivalents mainly consist of bank balances.

Changes in the components of consolidated equity are shown in the statement of changes in consolidated equity.

4,096.6 3,746.0
€ million 30.06.2017 31.12.2016

Financing liabilities from property financing serve the financing of investment properties.

Financing liabilities from real estate financing include a convertible bond with a nominal value of eur 300.0 million. The convertible bond was classified as a financing liability on account of the issuer's contractual cash settlement option and recognised in accordance with ias 39. There are several embedded and separable derivatives that are treated as a single compound derivative in accordance with ias 39.ag29 and carried at fair value. The underlying debt instrument is recognised at amortised cost.

Extensive refinancing was performed in the first half of the year. The emission of a corporate bond increased the financing liabilities by eur 495.0 million. Furthermore, commercial papers in the amount of eur 200.0 million were issued. This was offset by the early repayments of subsidized loans in the amount of eur 182.2 million and bank loans in the amount of eur 165.7 million, which reduced total financing liabilities by eur 347.7 million.

The main drivers for the changes in maturities of financing liabilities against the reporting date are the emission of the corporate bond and the repayments of the loans.

In the reporting period, the leg Group increased its net rental and lease income by eur 12.3 million compared with the same period of the previous year. The main driver of this development was the eur 14.3 million rise in net cold rents. In-place rent per square metre on a like-for-like basis rose by 3.0% in the reporting period.

Due to the acquisition of 51% of the shares of Technik ServicePlus GmbH (tsp) and the consequential consolidation as at 1 January 2017 the leg Group provides the main part of the maintenance services on their own. As a result, the staff costs climbed by eur 5.9 million whereas the externally procured maintenance decreased.

Adjusted by the effect of the own provided maintenance services the rental-related staff costs developed at a slightly slower rate (4.7%) than the net cold rent (increase of 5.7%).

The noi margin of 76.9% was slightly higher than in the comparative period (76.3%).

Net income from the remeasurement of investment properties

As of 30 June 2017 leg conducted a fair value measurement of investment property for the first time in an interim financial report.

Net income from remeasurement amounted to eur 480.1 million in the reporting period which corresponds to a 6.0% rise (incl. acquisitions) compared to the start of the financial year.

The average value of investment property (incl. ifrs 5 objects) as of 30 June 2017 is eur 999 per square metre including acquisitions (31 December 2016: eur 930 per square metre) and eur 1,000 per square metre excluding acquisitions.

The increase in property value reflects the dynamic development of in place and target rents. The discount rate remained unchanged compared to 31 December 2016 and therefore had no impact on net income from remeasurement of investment property.

The main driver for the reduction in administrative and other expenses by eur 35.3 million year-on-year were incidental acquisition and integration costs for portfolio acquisitions in the comparative period in the amount of eur 34.7 million.

Taking volume growth into account, current administrative expenses climbed only moderately by 4.5%.

INTEREST EXPENSES –64.5 –61.1

Interest expense from loan amortisation raised by eur 2.8 million year on year to eur 14.6 million. This includes the measurement of the convertible bond and corporate bond at amortised cost in the amount of eur 3.7 million (comparative period: eur 3.3 million). The one-time, additional amortisation expense of the refinancing amounted to eur 4.9 million. As a result of the refinancing the lower scheduled amortisation acted against. Other interest expense resulted mainly from the reversal of the amounts for interest rate derivatives reported in oci for hedge accounting amounting to eur 6.7 million (previous year: eur 4.4 million), which were released in connection with the refinancing.

In addition, the increase in the loan volume resulted in a slight rise in interest expenses from financing of real estate. The refinancing and the related replacement of derivatives also had the effect of reducing interest expenses from interest rate derivatives. This was offset by the effects of the lower interest rates on interest rate derivatives.

An effective Group tax rate of 22.5% was assumed in the reporting period in accordance with Group tax planning (previous year: 22.7%).

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to the shareholders by the average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period.

As at 30 June 2017, leg Immo had potential ordinary shares from a convertible bond, which authorise the bearer to convert it into up to 5.5 million shares.

Diluted earnings per share are calculated by increasing the average number of shares outstanding by the number of all potentially dilutive shares. The net profit/loss for the period is adjusted for the expenses no longer incurring for the interest coupon, the measurement of the embedded derivatives and the amortisation of the convertible bond and the resulting tax effect in the event of the conversion rights being exercised in full.

Owing in particular to the expenses no longer incurring in the event of conversion for the measurement of the embedded derivative, the potential ordinary shares from the convertible bond are not dilutive within the meaning of ias 33.41.

The diluted earnings per share are therefore equal to the basic earnings per share.

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following table shows the financial assets and liabilities broken down by measurement category and class. Receivables and liabilities from finance leases and derivatives used as hedging instruments are included even though they are not assigned to an ias 39 measurement category. With respect to reconciliation, non-financial assets and non-financing liabilities are also included although they are not covered by ifrs 7.

The fair values of financial instruments are determined on the basis of corresponding market values or measurement methods. For cash and cash equivalents and other short-term primary financial instruments, the fair value is approximately the same as the carrying amount at the end of the respective reporting period.

For non-current receivables, other assets and liabilities, the fair value is calculated on the basis of the forecast cash flows, applying the reference interest rates as of the end of the reporting period. The fair values of derivative financial instruments are determined based on the benchmark interest rates in place as of the reporting date.

For financial instruments at fair value, the discounted cash flow method is used to determine fair value using corresponding quoted market prices, with individual credit ratings and other market conditions being taken into account in the form of standard credit and liquidity spreads when calculating present value. If no quoted market prices are available, the fair value is calculated using standard measurement methods applying instrument-specific market parameters.

When calculating the fair value of derivative financial instruments, the input parameters for the valuation models are the relevant market prices and interest rates observed as of the end of the reporting period, which are obtained from recognised external sources. The derivatives are therefore attributable to Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as defined in ifrs 13.72 ff (measurement on the basis of observable inputs).

Both the Group's own risk and the counterparty risk were taken into account in the calculation of the fair value of derivatives in accordance with ifrs 13.
