Smart-Submetering – the next promising pilot project

Smart-submetering - What´s it about?

  • Consumption of heat and water has to be tracked (unit by unit). Currently, we have contracts with several service providers, delivering us data once a year
  • We aim to replace the service provider and insource real-time metering by a Deutsche Annington subsidiary
  • We are able to settle the utility bill every month or shortly after a tenant leaves
  • It creates a win-win situation for tenants and Deutsche Annington (lower cost, better visibility, etc)
  • First pilot in 1,000 flats in Bergkamen with 6,000 meters and 25 modems in place
  • Technical feasibility is proven: consumption data measured manually and automatically are identical
  • Business case on track, roll-out is now in detailed planning phase

Pilot implemented

  • Measuring of consumption of Water and Heat (Sub-Metering)
  • 'Smart': Utilize intelligent online Metering technology
  • Evaluate value levers from insourcing

We are screening the market for potential acquisitions, but with a very selective approach

If it comes to an acquisition, we are a highly appreciated and reliable partner

  • We offer transaction security. If we sign, we close as well in a relatively short timeframe
  • Best-in-class financing strategy with fast access to a comprehensive set of funding tools
  • Our German-wide presence is a competitive advantage ("You don't easily find portfolios of 5,000 units in one city")
  • We have a dedicated and well experienced internal M&A team
  • Our processes are standardised and fast
  • Our deal criteria are transparent

Every potential acquisition is monitored by a dedicated process, thus keeping us highly disciplined

  • Our return matrix and portfolio segmentation are powerful tools to make an early decision about the strategic fit of an offered portfolio
  • The "cage" keeps us highly disciplined and prevents us from overpaying - a high risk in current markets

We are well prepared for the GAGFAH integration

We are well prepared…

  • 2014 acquisitions of DeWAG and Vitus are fully integrated and financed – smooth and faster than planned
  • Systems and processes are accessed and now suitable for any integration
  • Hence, everything needed for the integration and funding of GAGFAH has been successfully tested
  • We have already achieved the first important milestones of the GAGFAH transaction:
  • Board and senior management team selected
  • Financing structure kicked-off with perpetual hybrid bond issuance in December 2014

…to go the extra mile, fast.

  • Next Steps 2015
  • Start of integration
  • Assimilation of IT-structure
  • Segmentation of combined portfolio
  • Execution of funding strategy
  • Achievement of first synergy targets
  • Upcoming dates 2015
  • April 30th : AGM
  • June 1 st : Combined Q1 Results with detailed update
  • June 15th & 16th : Capital Markets Day
  • August 19th : Combined H1 results
  • 2016 Outlook

  • Excellent operational performance continued leading to all major KPIs at or above guidance
  • Innovative finance structure demonstrated by first hybrid issuance in German residential

P&L Comments

  • Increase primarily driven by DeWAG and Vitus acquisition which accounted for € 65.6m in 2014
  • Excluding acquisition effects, rental income remains relatively stable as sales effects are largely offset by higher Ø residential in-place rent per sqm and month (€ 5.55 vs. € 5.41) and lower vacancy rate
  • Increase primarily driven by DeWAG and Vitus acquisitions which accounts for € 25.2m in 2014
  • Excluding acquisition effects, income from ancillary cost increased by € 3.6m as the improved vacancy rate overcompensates reduced portfolio size
  • More stringent profitability standards resulted in a significant reduction of units sold.
  • However, this effect is more than offset by the positive market environment which results in higher sales prices and corresponding in higher fair value step-ups for properties sold.
  • Result in 2014 is primarily due to yield compression effects, expiration of rent-restrictions and modernisation programme.
  • Increase driven by capitalised services rendered by internal craftsmen organisation
  • Increase reflects increasing portfolio size from latest acquisitions partly compensated by insourcing effects of our own caretaker organisation
  • Increase primarily driven by higher expenses per sqm from € 11.93 in 2013 to € 12.23m combined with increased portfolio size

  • Ramp-up of personnel from 2,935 to 3,850 employees leads to increased personnel expenses, primarily driven by the insourcing initiative of caretakers and craftsmen as well as latest acquisitions.
  • Ongoing personnel cost per FTE decline as a significant share of new employees relates to our craftsmen or caretaker organisation

Increase results from reimbursement of transaction and integration costs related to the sale of the Leopard-Portfolio (€16m) and insurance payments from a storm in the second quarter of 2014.

  • Increase mainly driven by consultants' and auditors' fees for DeWAG and Vitus acquisitions as well as provisions related to the Gagfah takeover.
  • Substantial decrease due to lower interest rates and an improved financing structure

Change in deferred tax recognition according to EPRA

  • Referring to the EPRA "Best Practices Recommendations", equity effects caused by deferred taxes should be excluded in the EPRA NAV calculation if they are not expected to crystallise in normal circumstances. Usually, this should be the case for deferred taxes on property valuation surpluses.
  • Historically DAIG used a simplified approach to fulfil this requirement. Not only the deferred taxes on properties but the total net of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets were recognised and added to the shareholders equity.
  • For FY 2014, DAIG has changed its recognition of deferred taxes to deferred taxes on property valuation surpluses (and on financial derivatives) only, with the following effect:

1By market cap; ² In listed German residential sector

We are able to reduce the effects of "Mietpreisbremse" by benefitting from our unique modernisation skills

  • With our German-wide presence and the approach to offer affordable living, only very few of our assets are located in potential "high demand housing markets", where "Mietpreisbremse" might be applied
  • Assessed potential risk of lost rental growth amounts to around 0.2% p.a.
    1. Do nothing accept situation 2. Only "comprehensive, high-end-luxury" modernisations No option for Deutsche Annington, as not in line with our position of being "Germany's largest residential real estate manager" No option for Deutsche Annington, as it leads to growth stagnation No option for Deutsche Annington, as not in line with our general principle to offer `affordable living´. The only realistic scenario for Deutsche Annington due to the strategic advantage of TGS. 3. Shift strategy to portfolio privatisation only
      1. Highest implementation probability through countrywide availability of craftsmen capacity
      1. Cost efficiency and economies of scale result in lower costs for tenants and lead to higher acceptance of modernisation efforts

Although Deutsche Annington might be affected by the "Mietpreisbremse", it offers the opportunity to focus even stronger on our strategic advantage – socially accepted modernisation executed by TGS, our own craftsmen organisation.

4. Broaden and expand rent-related

investments

Our modernisation program is capitalising on mega-trends supported by German regulation

  • Strong regulatory push at the EU level towards energy efficiency
  • Supportive German regulatory framework allowing for rent increases following modernisation (up to 11% of energy modernisation cost)
  • Public subsidised funding available to support energy efficiency investments

Imbalanced market structure provides opportunities

Total Returns 2009-2012

Current return in %

Total return is the sum of current return and expected value growth

  • Imbalanced market structure provides opportunities
  • Growth is most crucial component
  • But analyses of history shows – rent forecasts by external data providers are not reliable

Deutsche Annington's portfolio management approach (Deutsche Annington's analyses of Germany)

Current return in %

City Priority city for acquisitions

  • We developed a framework to evaluate the housing market
  • Growth is derived from basic demographic data and own estimates
  • We will invest and acquire assets with above average returns and sell assets with low return
  • We identified 10 cities with a priority for acquisitions

Active portfolio management approach pays off

All 2014 transactions perfectly enhance our portfolio – acquisitions as well as disposals

We implemented an efficient process to acquire smaller portfolios fast and smoothly (tactical acquisitions)

  • With tactical acquisitions (≤ 500 units), we enlarge our transaction toolkit
  • Our target is to refill reductions from privatisation sales by tactical acquisitions

  • Standardised and lean "fast track" process (2-4 weeks) for tactical acquisitions implemented

  • Low complexity leads to acceptable administrative cost
  • Best use of regional market knowledge
  • Requirements for strategic fit:
  • Asset deal
  • Focus region in line with growth-return matrix
  • Significant Dt. Annington portfolio close by
  • Property strategy (rental only)

  • Lean and tailored process to drive tactical acquisitions

  • First acquisitions as testing balloon in 2014, steady deal flow from 2015 onwards

We will focus on the systematical development of new services and products along social megatrends

New services will complete our product offering along the social megatrends
