It is my pleasure to present to you this financial report of Echo Investment for the first quarter of 2023. During this quarter, Echo Investment generated PLN 11.5 million in net profit which was mainly the result of nearly 300 handed over apartments and the revaluation of Resi4Rent. The company maintains a high level of cash – at the end of March 2023 it was PLN 778 million that is creating comfortable conditions for the future development.
In the first quarter of 2023, the Group sold 374 apartments and had 2,863 units under construction. We plan to jointly start another 2.5 thousand still this year.
In the first quarter of 2023, Resi4Rent , strengthened its leading position on the PRS market. Resi4Rent currently has over 3.3 thousand ready and fully leased premises, while over 5.8 thousand is under construction or planned to be started during the year. In the first quarter, the platform launched a new Warsaw project at Żwirki i Wigury with nearly 350 units, consistently striving to achieve the goal is to have about10 thousand apartments for rent by 2025.
In April 2023, we signed a preliminary agreement regarding the consolidation of Echo Investment's and Archicom's residential business. With Echo as a main shareholder with over 80% stake, the combined residential business will give Archicom a nationwide scale with greater growth potential, synergies and wider recognition on the market. It will also organize the structure of the Group, in which Echo Investment will focus on developing the commercial real estate segment, apartments for rent and creating
multifunctional "destination" projects. This action is in line with the Group's strategy, which assumes achieving the leading position on the residential and commercial market.
Commercial real estate continues to be a strong pillar of our business. We started the first quarter with the sale of Moje Miejsce II in Warsaw, the second office building of our Mokotów multifunctional project. The building is fully leased with strong tenants which confirms the interest in sustainable, high quality destination projects. The value of the transaction amounted to EUR 45 million. Currently, we are conducting advanced negotiations on the sale of further buildings, and looking to the future – we are preparing new investments, from which projects in Warsaw, Wroclaw and Krakow are to be kicked off still this year.
We are also pleased with the development of CitySpace, our Group's operator of flexible offices. In the first quarter, the company focused on preparations to open its first office in Łódź and the thirteenth location in the CitySpace's offer.
Our Libero shopping centers in Katowice and Galeria Młociny in Warsaw operate at full capacity and strengthen their position on local markets. The beginning of 2023 has been a continuation of growth in both locations. Libero's turnover in the first quarter of 2023 was 27% higher than in the first quarter of 2022, while footfall – by 7%. An equally good situation is observed in Warsaw's Galeria Młociny. Here, turnover increased by 25%, while footfall – by 20%.
Our net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company in the first quarter of 2023 amounted to PLN 11.5 million and was mainly the result of a hand over of nearly 300 apartments with a margin of 33% and the valuation of new Resi4Rent projects for which the demand is still strong. The Group maintains a high level of cash: at the end of the first quarter it was PLN 778 million, and the value of our assets was close to PLN 6 billion.
In March 2023, we announced the ESG Echo - Archicom 2030 strategy. It is a step-by-step road leading the Echo-Archicom Group to decarbonisation, zero-emission investments, further increasing the role of greenery in investments and supporting proper urban development. We also intend to provide our employees with equal development opportunities, maximize safety on construction sites and strengthen corporate governance.
I encourage you to read in detail both documents – our financial report for the first quarter of 2023 and the announced ESG Echo-Archicom 2030 strategy.
Yours sincerely
Nicklas Lindberg

In 2016, the Management Board of Echo Investment prepared and introduced the Strategy of Profitable Growth with the approval of the Supervisory Board. The strategic directions confirmed in 2020 place particular emphasis
on the Group's development in the residential sector and increasing the importance of multifunctional, large destination projects in the pipeline. Echo's strategy is based on the following pillars:


Profitable Growth, Echo Investment is going to be one of the leaders in residential and commercial market, what implies higher dynamics in residential. Big scale of activity allows for optimum use of resources.
Echo Investment's many years of experience in three real estate sectors gives a competitive advantage consisting in the ability to implement large, multifunctional and city- -forming projects. Thanks to this, the Group can buy larger areas, with regard to which the unit price is lower
and the competition among buyers is much smaller. Combining the functions provides for faster completion of the project and comprehensive design of the urban space.

The focus of the adopted strategy model is on development activities, which include land acquisition, construction, lease, active management to increase the market value and then sale of finished project in optimal time for the possible return ratio, capital management, market expectations and trends. Commercial and residential properties under construction constitute majority of the group's assets.
It is the strongest economy and real estate market in the Central and Eastern Europe. Echo Investment, which has been operating on this market for two decades, knows perfectly its potential, background and principles of functioning. This is why the Company focuses on running projects in the most important Polish cities, which are at the same time the most attractive and liquid real estate markets: Warsaw, Tricity, Poznań, Katowice, Wrocław, Krakow and Łódź.

Echo Investment values long-term business relations with reliable partners, that created synergies for both sides. Development activities of Echo Investment are complementary to these entities. Such cooperation facilitates expanding Echo's scale of operation, accelerates speed of projects implementation and limits risks. Echo Investment assumes entering into joint-ventures for projects requiring significant capital expenditures, providing its partners with services such as development, planning, leasing, accounting etc. Partners may also be offered by Echo with priority to acquire ready projects on market conditions. Material agreements between Echo Investment and its partners need to be discussed and approved by the Supervisory Board.


Echo Investment Group runs the entire investment process in-house, starting with acquisition of property, through obtaining administrative permits, financing and oversight of construction, to leasing, completion, active property management to increase its value, taking decision of sale and execution of this decision in optimal moment from return, cash management, expectation and market trends. These steps are taken in most cases through the special purpose vehicles (SPV).

In March 2023, Echo Investment, together with its partner AFI Europe, presented a multifunctional development project for the purchased plot at Towarowa street in Warsaw, which was developed by the JEMS Architekci studio. It will be a flagship 'destination' project, a large placemaking project that meets the needs of Warsaw and will move the heart of the city over to Wola.
The project divides the former printing works site into eight new quarters, with streets, pedestrian and cycle paths running between them. The concept is to reconstruct Wronia street and the passage between Chłodna and Pańska streets, and in the ground floors to provide functions such as shops, cafés, restaurants and
services. The two central quarters of the site with the renovated Dom Słowa Polskiego pavilion will become a public space, a publicly accessible Park Słowa Polskiego, part of which will use the structure of the former halls. Around the park, buildings will be constructed with flats, offices, rental housing and the services needed on a daily basis. The total floor area of the buildings will be about 200,000 sqm. The highest point of the development will be a 150-metre-high office building at the junction of Towarowa and Pańska streets. The remaining development will gently slope down towards the south-east - to Miedziana street, creating a smooth transition between the metropolitan Daszyńskiego Roundabout and the historic buildings of Wola.

On 30 March 2023, West 4 Business Hub I, a modern A-class office building with 17,000 sqm GLA, was acquired by Trigea Real Estate Fund company.
The transaction value amounted to nearly EUR 45 million plus VAT and was reduced by the value of rent-free periods, rent reductions, as well as other costs. The amount payable at the closing was further reduced by the value of fit-out works. As a result, the price payable at the closing amounted to EUR 40.3 million plus VAT.
The office building is part of the Moje Miejsce (also known as My Place) project that forms a multifunctional urban quarter combining office buildings, apartments, service outlets and well-designed public spaces. Moje Miejsce II office building offers nearly 17,000 sqm of
leasable space and its tenants include Tchibo, NetWorks, Boehringer Ingelheim or Ekaterra, among others.
The entire Moje Miejsce destination project is already fully operational and completed.
A total of nearly 120 trees were planted within the project and in public areas along the surrounding Dziekońskiego, Beethovena and Aignera Streets. The office part of the project uses energy-efficient and pro-ecological solutions and technologies that support sustainability, which is confirmed by BREEAM certificates.
JEMS Architekci is responsible for the design of the project.

According to JLL analysts, sales of apartments in the six main markets, i.e. Warsaw, Cracow, Wrocław, the Tri-City, Poznań and Łódź, were very good and amounted to 11,400 in Q1. This is due, among others, to concerns about possible price increases and limitations in apartments on offer arising from the announcement of introducing a government interest subsidy program to support first-time apartment purchases. The increase in demand was also influenced by a change in recommendations of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority regarding the rules for calculating creditworthiness (from the previous 5 percent buffer to 2.5 percent for periodically fixed-rate loans), which made loans more readily available. What additionally helped were decisions of the Monetary Policy Council, which has not raised interest rates since October (the reference rate has remained at 6.75 percent). The market was also influenced by reports about a possible limitation in the
number of units purchased during the year, or restrictions on the possibility to assign developer agreements. These are figures that allow for cautious optimism.

According to JLL analysts, projects providing apartments being part of the private rented sector (PRS) are very popular and new developments are being leased very quickly, despite rising rents. The huge potential of the Polish private rented sector is due to several factors, including a structural shortage of apartments and a growing demand resulting in full occupancy of almost all existing projects in the private rented sector. Other factors include the needs of economic migrants or refugees seeking a safe place to live, the development of cities resulting from low levels of urbanisation, the process of singularisation of households, and mobility associated with various forms of employment. With regard to the investor's perspective, the expected yield compression and further price increases in the coming years provide an additional incentive to enter the market.
There is currently the greatest interest among tenants and investors in the PRS market. Almost all properties designated for this purpose are fully rented. This situation holds despite rising rents. According to the analysts of Expander and Rentier. io, the average rent increase amounted to 24 percent y/y, although it varies significantly depending on the city and location. The largest increases were recorded in Cracow (36 percent), Warsaw (31 percent) and Wrocław (31 percent). After these increases, Warsaw is still the most expensive, where the average cost is PLN 75 per square metre.
Poles are more willing to rent from private institutions than from an individual landlord. Although the private rented sector is slightly more expensive, they are willing to pay more for professional property management.
Despite its dynamic growth in recent years, the Polish PRS is still in its infancy and accounts for only a small percentage of all units available on the domestic market of apartments for rent. The development prospects for it are very promising - both for investors and potential tenants.
What is a question mark for the future of PRS companies are legal changes under way in parliament, which are intended to restrict the package purchases of apartments.

According to CBRE data, the Warsaw office market remained active in the first quarter of 2023, despite the fact that there was no new building completed. This is the aftermath of developers' decisions made 2-3 years ago, a lack of building permits and difficulties in acquiring attractive plots of land. This has resulted in a widening supply gap and intensifying competition between tenants for those offices that are already available. In the case of new buildings, there is a need for interested companies to secure agreements long before construction is completed, especially in high-quality office buildings in prime locations.

Perspectives of each market sectors in comming 12 months: – Very optimistic

According to JLL analysts, in the first three months of 2023, developers focused on regional markets, which are gradually developing. Cracow, among others, was enriched by new office space, and the current interest among tenants remains at a fairly high level. The demand is spread proportionally across the regional cities. Tenants are paying attention to ESG issues and ensuring the comfort provided by working from offices for their employees. The first quarter was also the first time in the history of market development that the total supply in regional cities exceeded the supply in the capital.

The largest transactions included renewing a contract with Sii in the Olivia Prime building in Gdańsk (10,100 sqm), a new lease contract signed by Alorica in the React building in Łódź (5,000 sqm) and a renewal of a lease contract by UPS in Wrocław's Bema Plaza (4, 600 sqm)

Echo Investment's achievements in the office sector in Q1 2023
Commercial real estate continues to be a strong pillar of Echo Investment's business. The Echo Investment Group started the first quarter with the sale of Moje Miejsca II in Warsaw, the second office building of the 'destination' mixed-use project. The transaction confirms the unflagging interest of both investors and tenants in sustainable
projects offering both apartments and offices combined with services. Meanwhile, the largest fit-out project completed by Echo this year was the new office of the Archicom Group in the MidPoint71 building in Wrocław, designed by 3XA Architects.

The key activities around which CitySpace's operations focused in the first quarter of 2023 were preparations for the opening of its thirteenth office, its decision to expand in Wrocław, preparations to launch a comprehensive customer satisfaction survey and bringing offices across the network up to a standard that supports ESG.

number of leased workstations at the end of March. The overall occupancy rate in CitySpace in already stabilised locations was 81 percent
number of workstations currently offered by CitySpace, of which 273 are desks prepared in Fuzja in Łódź
The Polish retail real estate market recorded a good start to the year.
According to Cushman&Wakefield analysts, the first quarter was characterised by high occupancy, with an average 18 percent higher y/y. The average turnover of tenants in February 2023 was more than 30 percent higher compared to February 2022, but after accounting for rising inflation, its actual turnover was 11 percent lower. Consumers' spending and thus tenants' turnover in retail facilities are negatively affected by shrinking wallets of Polish shoppers and worsening sentiments. The structure of spending is also changing - the amount of money being spent on goods and services outside the basket of basic goods is decreasing. The year 2023 will see rather negative retail sales dynamics, which may amount to approx. 5 percent.
The first quarter brought an increase in rents for units in the best shopping centres and retail parks, which was largely the result of indexation of rates by inflation and resulted from provisions in lease agreements. Since the beginning of the year, two new brands have appeared in Poland -
Ukrainian Master Burger and British Lush. The year 2023 may bring further debuts of brands such as Woolworth, Popeyes, Fruitissimo and Bob Snail.

The strategy of strengthening the Libero Katowice and Galeria Młociny shopping centers, based on the continuous expansion of the offer and strong marketing support, is successful. Both centers are almost 100 percent occupied and record constant increases in footfall while increasing tenant turnover. Libero, as a "convenience" shopping center, has become a "neighbourhood gallery" -
close, comprehensive, offering many possibilities.
2023 was a continuation of growth in both locations. Libero's turnover in Q1 2023 was 27 percent higher than in Q1 2022 while its footfall grew by 7 percent. An equally good situation is observed in Galeria Młociny in Warsaw. Here, the turnover increased by 25 percent and footfall - by 20 percent.
Strategically, for Echo Investment, retail and service components are an element which strengthens the attractiveness of multifunctional "destination" projects such as the Warsaw Breweries or Fuzja in Łódź.

The Group's activities cover several segments of the real estate market. Accounting for sales of apartments depends on delivery dates of residential buildings, and revenue from this activity occurs basically in every quarter, but with varying intensity. Historically, the Group handed over the greatest number of apartments in the second half of the year, and particularly in the fourth quarter. Revenues and results from services of general execution of projects, sales of finished commercial projects and real estate trading may occur on an irregular basis. The Management Board cannot exclude other one-time events that may affect the results achieved in a given period.
From 1 January to 31 March 2023, no proceedings were pending before any court, arbitration authority or public administration authority which involved liabilities or receivables of Echo Investment S.A. or its subsidiary which represent at least 10 percent of the Company's equity.
The Company has no information on agreements concluded in Q1 2023 between shareholders that would be important for its business.
In Q1 2023, there were no material transactions between Echo Investment S.A. and its subsidiaries with affiliated entities on terms other than market conditions.
Echo Investment S.A. did not publish any forecasts of financial results.
In Q1 2023, there are no material changes to the main management rules of the Company and the Group.
The Company is not aware of any agreements potentially resulting in changes in the proportions of shares held by existing shareholders.
Echo Investment Group has not yet identified any circumstances that could constitute specific risk factors resulted directly from the invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation or the economic sanctions imposed on Russia and Belarus. Echo Investment S.A. and its group of companies do not conduct any activities in the territory of Ukraine, Russia or Belarus.
In the Group management's opinion, these events have an impact on the Group's activity as well as the financial and operating condition, however, this impact is indirect and combined with a number of other macroeconomic and geopolitical factors. The war and its immediate aftermath - sanctions in particular - contributed to instability in the global markets of energy resources and building materials, but the degree of this impact cannot be determined.
The Group monitors the potential impact of the war on operating activities, financial results and development
prospects. In particular, this includes monitoring the availability of workforce, prices and availability of major building materials and fuels. Currently, the risk of labor shortage is assessed as low. After a short period of turmoil, the situation on the building materials and fuels market stabilizes. At present, the Group has not identified specific risks that directly result from the war and significantly affect its operating activities, financial results and development prospects.
Due to the dynamics of the situation in Ukraine, the Group is not able to exclude new risk factors in the future that may affect the business, financial and operating situation. If such risks are revealed, Echo Investment S.A. provides information on new conditions that have a significant impact on the business, financial results or prospects, in a manner prescribed by law and to the extent required.
