2. EARNINGS POSITION

2.1 REVENUES

Revenues amounted to EUR 93,332 k in the first half of 2017 and thus decreased compared to the respective prior year period by EUR 8,782 k (H1 2016: EUR 102,114 k). The decrease mainly results from the disposal of assets in 2016. Thus, net rental income of the Group decreased by EUR 6,769 k to EUR 83,101 k.

2.2 REAL ESTATE OPERATING EXPENSES

Real estate operating expenses amounted to EUR 9,960 k during the reporting period (H1 2016: EUR 11,898 k). The expense ratio decreased slightly from 11.7% in H1 2016 to 10.7% in H1 2017. This was mainly due to fire-protection measures that needed to be implemented in two assets from the Deutsche Office portfolio in the first half of 2016.

2.3 ADMINISTRATIVE AND PERSONNEL EXPENSES

Administrative expenses amounted to EUR 4,232 k (H1 2016: EUR 5,571 k). The main drivers for the decrease in administrative expenses were the synergy effects resulting from the consolidation of Deutsche Office and higher legal and advisory costs related to the higher amount of property disposals in 2016.

Personnel expenses were at EUR 6,245 k, as compared to EUR 6,625 k in the first half of 2016. The main reason for the slight decrease in personnel expenses was the remuneration for virtual shares which decreased by EUR 661 k to EUR 285 k. This effect was slightly levelled by the increase in salaries and bonuses by EUR 186 k to EUR 4,161 k, due to an increased number of employees in the first half of 2017 compared to the first half of 2016.

2.4 OTHER OPERATING RESULT

The other operating result amounted to EUR 1,447 k in the first half of 2017 (H1 2016: EUR –4,808 k). An increase in income by EUR 4,959 k resulted mainly from a compensation payment by a tenant in the amount of EUR 5,000 k. Furthermore, the expenses in the previous year were burdened by legal and advisory costs due to the takeover of the Deutsche Office.

2.5 GAIN FROM DISPOSAL OF INVESTMENT PROPERTY

The result from the sale of investment property decreased over the previous year by EUR 21,796 k.

2.6 FINANCIAL RESULT

The significant improvement in the net financial result by EUR 9,950 k is the result of the refinancing activities in the financial years 2015 and 2016, which led to a reduction in the average interest rate as well as to a lower level of indebtedness (LTV) (for further information, please see section 3.2, 'Financial Liabilities').

−193 –1,937
−17,599 –27,549

Other financial expenses in the previous year relate mainly to prepayment fees for the termination of some Deutsche Office loans prior to their maturity.

2.7 VALUATION RESULT OF FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES

The valuation of financial derivatives resulted in a net loss from fair value adjustments in an amount of EUR –2,884 k in the period from January 1 to June 30, 2017 (please refer to section 3.3 for further details). The valuation loss essentially results from the derivative embedded in the issued convertible bond. The valuation loss of the embedded derivative is based on the positive development of alstria's share price during the first half-year, which increases the market value of the potential repayment obligation in the event of the conversion of the convertible bond. This is reflected in the negative market value of the embedded derivative.

1) This is noncash income or expenses plus nonrecurring effects. The main effects in the first two quarters of 2016 were costs related to the takeover of alstria office Prime (EUR 4,416 k). The main effects in the first two quarters of 2017 were an other operating income from a compensation payment by a tenant (EUR 5,000 k), expenses for the valuation of the limited partner capital (EUR 3,946 k), as well as costs related to the takeover of alstria office Prime (EUR 930 k).

  • 2) (A)FFO is not a measure of operating performance or liquidity under generally accepted accounting principles, in particular IFRS, and it should not be considered as an alternative to the Company's income or cash flow measures as determined in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, there is no standard definition for (A)FFO. Thus, alstria's (A)FFO values and the measures with similar names presented by other companies may not be comparable.
  • 3) AFFO is equal to FFO after adjustments are made for capital expenditures used to maintain the quality of the underlying investment portfolio and expenses for lease-ups.

2.9 CONSOLIDATED NET RESULT

alstria's consolidated net result amounted to EUR 78,579 k in the period under review, as compared to the first half of 2016 (H1 2016: EUR 56,454 k). Lower financial expenses as well as an improved net loss from fair value adjustments on financial derivatives and an improved share of the result of joint venture contributed substantially to the increase of the consolidated net result of the Group (for further information, please refer to section 5.1, 'Recent Developments'). Undiluted earnings per share amounted to EUR 0.51 in the first six months of 2017 (H1 2016: EUR 0.35 per share).

Overall, ineffective value losses (EUR –4 k) and losses on hedges not qualified for cash flow hedging (EUR –2,880 k) resulted in a total loss of EUR 2,884 k (H1 2016: loss of EUR 12,793 k), which is presented as the net result from fair value adjustments to financial derivatives in the income statement. For a detailed description of the hedging instruments, please refer to the appendix of the consolidated financial report as of December 31, 2016.

3.4 CASH POSITION

Cash and cash equivalents decreased in the amount of EUR 195,691 k from EUR 247,489 k to EUR 51,798 k in the reporting period. The decrease primarily resulted from investing activities from the acquisition and sale of investment properties in the net amount of EUR 168,160 k. The net cash used in financing activities was mainly affected by the dividend payment of EUR 79,680 k while refinancing activities nearly balanced. A positive cash flow of EUR 50,184 k was generated from operating activities.

3.5 EQUITY METRICS

Compared to December 31, 2016 equity slightly decreased to EUR 1,728,061 k as of June 30, 2017. The dividend payment in May 2017 led to a decrease of EUR 79,680 k.

4 RISK AND OPPORTUNITY REPORT

The risks and opportunities to which alstria is exposed are described in detail in alstria's Annual Report 2016. There have been no changes to the status presented in that report.

5. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND FINANCIAL TARGETS

5.1 RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

On April 24, 2017, alstria signed an agreement for the acquisition of a portfolio of 12 office buildings in Hamburg, Düsseldorf or Ratingen, and Berlin for a total consideration of EUR 168.5 million. The transfers of benefits and burdens took place on July 1, 2017.

On July 17, 2017, alstria announced the signature of a new lease with the state of Baden-Württemberg for 8,400 m² office and ancillary space for its asset Hauptstätter Straße 65–67 in Stuttgart. The new lease contract is expected to start on January 1, 2018, and has a maturity of ten years. With the conclusion of the contract the asset is fully let.

17

On July 18, 2017, Alstria VI. Hamburgische Grundbesitz GmbH & Co. KG, a 49/51 percent joint venture between alstria office REIT-AG and Quantum Immobilien AG, agreed on the sale of its property 'Kaisergalerie' (Grosse Bleichen 23–27, Hamburg) for a total consideration of EUR 170 million. The final closing is expected to take place until the end of financial year 2017.

Please refer to the table on page 6 for more details regarding the transactions that took place in the current fiscal year 2017.

5.2 FINANCIAL TARGETS

alstria proactively focuses on the following key financial performance indicators: revenues and FFO. Revenues mainly comprise rental income derived from the Company's leasing activities. FFO is the operating result and is derived from real estate management. It excludes valuation effects and other adjustments, such as non-cash expenses/ income and non-recurring effects.*

The first half of financial year 2017 proceeded as expected. alstria's original revenue and FFO forecasts for 2017 increase in the most part due to the transfer of benefits and burdens of the new portfolio as of July 1, 2017. As a result, the revenue forecast increases by EUR 8 million from EUR 185 million to EUR 193 million for financial year 2017. As a consequence, the FFO forecast increases by EUR 5 million from EUR 108 million to EUR 113 million. Any other forecasts or statements presented in the annual statement 2016 regarding the prospective development of the Company for financial year 2017 have not changed substantially.

The management 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.

NOTES

1 CORPORATE INFORMATION

alstria office REIT-AG, Hamburg, (hereinafter referred to as 'the Company' or 'alstria office REIT-AG' and, together with its subsidiaries, as 'alstria' or 'the Group'), is a German stock corporation based in Hamburg. 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, 2016.

2 BASIS OF PREPARATION

These consolidated interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting'. They do not contain all of the disclosures and explanations which are required in the annual financial statements; they should therefore be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2016.

4 CONSOLIDATED GROUP

Following the disposal of their real estate property five Group companies were merged into their parent company during the reporting period. In addition, all companies so far incorporated as companies with limited liability ['Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung' or 'GmbH'] holding real estate property were transferred into the legal form of a limited liability partnership ['GmbH & Co. Kommanditgesellschaft' or 'GmbH & Co. KG']. The registration of the relevant changes of form in the commercial register also took place in the first half year of the 2017 financial year.

There have been no further changes to the consolidated Group since the preparation of the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2016.

5 KEY JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES

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 the disclosures concerning assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual amounts may vary from these estimates.

6.1 PERSONNEL EXPENSES

6.2 OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES

The increase in other operating income relates in particular to higher compensation payments made by tenants in the course of lease termination.

Other operating expenses are down, as higher sums were recorded in the previous year as a result of the takeover of the former DO Deutsche Office AG, and these sums were no longer at this scale. Other operating expenses for the reporting period mainly comprise the valuation result for the valuation of the liability for non-controlling interests limited partnership capital.

6.3 FINANCIAL RESULT

For details on the net financial results and on the loans' development, please refer to the sections '2.6 Financial result' and '3.2 Financial liabilities' in the interim management report.

6.4 INCOME TAXES

As a consequence of its status as a G-REIT, alstria office REIT-AG is exempt from the German corporation tax (Körperschaftsteuer) and trade tax (Gewerbesteuer). With the change of legal form of the alstria office Prime companies, with a tax effect in the 2016 financial year, the alstria office Prime Group was transferred to the tax-exempt REIT structure.

Tax payment obligations may arise for affiliates serving as general partners in a partnership or for REIT service companies as well as on the basis of tax field audits for fiscal periods before inclusion in the REIT structure.

7 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET – ASSETS

7.1 INVESTMENT PROPERTY

Pursuant to IFRS 13, alstria office REIT-AG uses the fair value model for revaluation purposes. External appraisals were obtained to determine the respective values as of December 31, 2016. For a detailed description of the process for determining the asset value, please refer to Section 2.4 of the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2016. A reconciliation of the changes in investment properties since December 31, 2016, can be found on page 10 of the interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2017.

In the first half of the year 2017, alstria office REIT-AG signed notary agreements for the acquisition of 13 investment properties.

In addition, two properties which were held for sale at the end of the previous year have been transferred to the buyer.

7.2 CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents, which refer to cash held at banks, are in the amount of EUR 51,798 k. This amount is not subject to any restrictions.

7.3 FINANCIAL ASSETS

The financial assets of EUR 34,803 k relate to long-term bank deposits with a maturity until the financial year 2021.

8 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET – EQUITY AND LIABILITIES

8.1 EQUITY

Please refer to the consolidated statement of changes in equity for details.

Share capital

The conversion of profit participation rights (Note 12) in the second quarter of 2017 resulted in the issuance of 111,000 new shares by making use of the conditionally increased capital provided for such purposes. The share capital increased by EUR 111,000 to EUR 153,342,217. As of June 30, 2017, it is represented by 153,342,217 no par value bearer shares.

The majority of the Company's shares are in free float.

Capital reserve

The share premium resulting from the conversion of 111,000 profit participation rights resulted in an increase in capital reserves of EUR 111 k.

Treasury shares

As of June 30, 2017, the Company held no treasury shares.

8.2 FINANCIAL LIABILITIES

As of June 30, 2017, alstria's total interest bearing debt, which consists of corporate bonds, loan balances drawn and convertible bonds, amounted to EUR 1,501,725 k (as at December 31, 2016, it was EUR 1,482,864 k). The lower carrying amount of EUR 1,494,565 k (non-current: EUR 1,408,335 k; current: EUR 86,230 k) takes into account the interest liabilities and transaction costs which are allocated according to the effective interest rate method at the time when the loans in question were taken out. Financial liabilities with a maturity of up to one year are recognised as current loans.

During the reporting period, a loan agreement for a revolving credit facility of EUR 100,000 k was entered into to serve for general corporate finance purposes as well as the financing of the acquisition of real estate property. As of June 30, 2017, the loan was drawn in an amount of EUR 30,000 k.

After exercising the conversion rights for a nominal value of EUR 200 k, EUR 79,200 k of the convertible bond remains included in the financial liabilities.

For a detailed description of the loans, including their terms and securities, please refer to the 'Financial liabilities' section in the Group's interim management report for the second quarter of 2017 (see page 11) and to Section 7.3 of the consolidated financial statements as December 31, 2016.

8.3 DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Derivative financial instruments comprise interest caps. The purpose of these financial derivatives is to hedge the Group against interest rate risks arising from the Group's business activities and its sources of financing. In addition, they include an embedded derivative resulting from the issue of a convertible bond.

An independent expert determined the fair value of the derivative financial instruments by discounting the expected future cash flows at prevailing market interest rates.

For a more detailed description of the Group's derivative financial instruments and the presentation of their fair values, please refer to page 14 of the Group's interim management report.

All of the Group's financial instruments, which are recognised in the balance sheet at fair value, are valued by applying the level 2-valuation approach. This, however, only relates to the Group's financial derivatives, as none of the other financial instruments are recognised in the balance sheet at fair value. The fair value determination of the Group's financial derivatives is based on future interest rates, which are derived from observable yield curves.

REVIEW REPORT

To the alstria office REIT-AG, Hamburg

We have reviewed the condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the alstria office REIT-AG, Hamburg, comprising the condensed income statement, the condensed balance sheet, condensed statement of changes in equity, condensed cash flow statement and selected explanatory notes, together with the interim group management report of the alstria office REIT-AG, Hamburg, for the period from January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2017, that are part of the semi annual financial report pursuant to Article 37w paragraph 2 WpHG [Wertpapierhandelsgesetz: German Securities Trading Act]. The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with those IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU, and of the interim group management report in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports, is the responsibility of the company's management. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and on the interim group management report based on our review.

We conducted our review of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and of the interim group management report in accordance with the German generally accepted standards for the review of financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer [Institute of Public Auditors in Germany] (IDW). Those standards require that we plan and perform the review such that we can preclude through critical evaluation, with a certain level of assurance, that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with those IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU, and that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company employees and analytical assessments and therefore does not provide the assurance attainable in a financial statement audit. Since, in accordance with our engagement, we have not performed a financial statement audit, we cannot issue an auditor's report.

Based on our review no matters have come to our attention that cause us to presume that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with those IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU, or that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports.
