INTERIM MANAGEMENT REPORT

2 EARNINGS POSITION

The operations of alstria office REIT-AG (alstria) have developed according to plan in the year to date. Revenues increased to EUR 98,624 k in the reporting period (H1 2023: EUR 92,793 k). The $6.3 \%$ increase is mainly due to rent increases as a result of indexation and the start of new leases. Losses in rental income due to terminated rental agreements were therefore more than offset.

Consolidated profit for the period amounted to EUR $47,797 \mathrm{k}$ in the reporting period (H1 2023: EUR $9,206 \mathrm{k}$ ). In addition to the higher net rental income of EUR $85,237 \mathrm{k}$ (H1 2023: EUR 78,102 k), the significant increase in earnings was due to an improved valuation result of EUR $-5,559 \mathrm{k}$ (H1 2023: EUR $35,522 \mathrm{k}$ ) and income of EUR $11,791 \mathrm{k}$ from the repurchase of bonds. The net financial result rose to EUR $24,609 \mathrm{k}$ (H1 2023: EUR 20,626 k) as a result of taking on additional financial liabilities and increased refinancing costs. The bonds issued by the Company were purchased at a discount to their nominal value on the capital market. In contrast, the increase in interest expenses (EUR $-39,848 \mathrm{k}$, H1 2023: EUR $-26,829 \mathrm{k}$ ) as a result of higher debt and higher interest rates had a negative impact compared to the previous year.

The operating result (FFO after minorities) amounted to EUR $41,454 \mathrm{k}$ in the reporting period. The decline compared to the previous year's figure (EUR $47,908 \mathrm{k}$ ) is primarily due to higher financing costs resulting from the take-up of additional financial liabilities and higher refinancing costs. The increase in rental income only partially compensated for this effect.

The reconciliation from consolidated net profit for the period to FFO is based on the elimination of non-cash income/cost figures that are not expected to recur annually, are not related to the period and do not serve the operating business. The adjustments between the income/cost figures in the income statement and FFO are shown in the table on the next page. The most significant adjustments (> EUR $1,000 \mathrm{k}$ ) in the reporting period related to the non-cash valuation result (EUR $-5,559 \mathrm{k}$ ), EUR $3,276 \mathrm{k}$ other operating expenses (valuation result for the limited partnership contributions of non-controlling partners recognized as debt capital as well as valuations of financial assets) and EUR $11,791 \mathrm{k}$ in one-off income in the net financial result, which resulted from the repurchase of bonds in the capital market at a discount to their nominal value. The income tax income, which has also been adjusted, results from the release of tax provisions that were created for precautionary reasons when a subsidiary of alstria office REIT-AG changed its legal form in the 2016 financial year.

${ }^{1)}$ Numbers may not sum up due to rounding.

Furthermore, there is no standard definition for FFO. Thus, alstria's FFO values and the measures with similar names presented by other companies may not be comparable.

3 FINANCIAL AND ASSET POSITION

Investment property

The fair value of investment property as of June 30, 2024 was EUR 4,031,580 k, slightly above the level as of December 31, 2023 (EUR 3,971,253 k). The increase is due to investments in real estate assets. The net loss from the adjustment of the fair value of investment property resulted from personnel and administrative costs associated with the investments, which were initially capitalized in accordance with the Group requirements of the majority shareholder, but in the Company's view do not represent a sustainable increase in the value of the property and were therefore written off.

Further key figures of the financial and asset position

As of June 30, 2024, alstria's cash and cash equivalents amounted to EUR 104,833 k (December 31, 2023: EUR 116,282 k).

Total equity increased by $4.0 \%$ to EUR $1,682,705 \mathrm{k}$ as of June 30, 2024 (December 31, 2023: EUR $1,617,547 \mathrm{k}$ ). This development was mainly due to the consolidated result in the first half of 2024 as well as a result from fair value adjustments on financial derivatives booked directly in the equity.

alstria office REIT-AG (hereinafter referred to as "the Company" or "alstria office REIT-AG", together with its subsidiaries, referred to as "alstria" or "the Group"), is a German stock corporation under the scope of the G-REIT-Act, based in Hamburg. It has been included in the consolidated financial statements of Brookfield Corporation, Toronto, Canada (hereinafter "Brookfield") since the majority of its shares were acquired by Brookfield subsidiaries on January 11, 2022. As the ultimate parent company, Brookfield Corporation prepares the consolidated financial statements for the largest group of companies in the Brookfield Group. In addition, the Company is consolidated since January 1, 2023 within the consolidated financial statements of Brookfield Property Partners LP, Hamilton, Bermuda (BPY) within the Brookfield Group.

4. CONSOLIDATED GROUP

There have been no changes to the consolidated Group since the preparation of the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023.

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 disclosures concerning assets, liabilities, income and expenses. There were no changes compared to the key judgments and estimates described in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

6. NOTES ON THE CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT

6.1. PERSONNEL EXPENSES

EUR k Jan. 1 to June 30, 2024 Jan. 1 to June 30, 2023
Salaries and wages 2,996 3,292
Social insurance contribution 571 527
Bonuses 681 904
Expenses for long-term remuneration 901 1,210
thereof relating to other long-term remuneration of the Management board thereof relating to other long-term remuneration of the Employees 266 66
Amounts for retirement provisions and disability insurance for the members of the Management Board 48 48
Other 180 205
5,377 6,186

Personnel expenses decreased by EUR 809 k or $13.1 \%$. The reason for this decline is essentially the subsequent effects of the restructuring of compensation components as a result of the takeover by Brookfield, which had a negative impact on the previous year.

See also Sections 12 and 13 for information on expenses for long-term remuneration.

6.2. OTHER OPERATING INCOME AND EXPENSES

The other operating income includes releases of provisions, payments received on impaired receivables and flat-rate payments for dismantling obligations or other special rental services. The other operating expenses in the reporting period essentially contain the valuation result for the limited partnership contributions of non-controlling partners recognized as debt capital (EUR 2.4 m; H1 2023: EUR 2.8 m ) as well as valuations of financial assets.

6.3. GAIN ON DISPOSAL OF INVESTMENT PROPERTY

There were no real estate sales in the reporting period. The sale of two properties in the same period of the previous year led to a net result from the sale of investment properties of EUR 83 k in the first half of the 2023 financial year.

6.4. INCOME TAX

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).

Tax payment obligations may arise for affiliates serving as general partners in a partnership or for REIT service companies and based on tax field audits for fiscal periods before inclusion in the REIT structure. The income tax income for the first half of 2024 results from the release of tax provisions that were created for precautionary reasons when a subsidiary of alstria office REIT-AG changed its legal form in the 2016 financial year.

6.5. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The tables below show the income and share data used in the earnings per share computations:

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.

Treasury shares

As of June 30, 2024, the Company held no treasury shares.

8.2. FINANCIAL LIABILITIES

As of June 30, 2024, alstria's total interest-bearing debt, which consists of corporate bonds and loan balances drawn, amounted to EUR 2,439,420 k (Dec. 31, 2023: EUR 2,450,000 k). The differing carrying amount of EUR 2,427,635 k (non-current: EUR 2,422,599 k; current: EUR 5,036 k) takes into account the interest liabilities and transaction costs allocated according to the effective interest rate method at the time when the loans in question were taken out over the maturity of the respective loans.

Financial liabilities with a maturity of up to one year are recognized as current loans. The fair value of non-current and current financial liabilities amounted to EUR $2,331,216 \mathrm{k}$ as at the reporting date.

In the reporting period, the Company redeemed shares in corporate bonds with a total nominal value of EUR $97,300 \mathrm{k}$ and a bank loan note for EUR $150,000 \mathrm{k}$. Bank loans secured by land charges were newly taken out with a nominal value of EUR $125,000 \mathrm{k}$

As a result, financial liabilities include bank loans in the nominal amount of EUR 1,418,720 k, corporate bonds in the nominal amount of EUR 980,700 k and the promissory note loan with a nominal value of EUR $40,000 \mathrm{k}$ and, as of June 30, 2024. In addition, there is a revolving credit line with a volume of EUR $200,000 \mathrm{k}$, from which no loan amounts had been utilized as of the balance sheet date.

For a detailed description of the loans, including their terms and securities, please refer to Section 7.3 of the Notes to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023.

9. CONTINGENT LIABILITY DISCLOSURE

alstria is currently in breach of the 15\% free float requirement, which must be restored by December 31, 2024, to comply with the legal requirement. Failure to comply with the free float requirement would lead to the loss of REIT status (Sec. 18 para. 3 of the G-REIT Act), and the Company would become fully subject to German income and trade tax as of January 1, 2025.

The Company is actively involved in several workstreams aimed at restoring the free float to $15 \%$ in line with the REIT Law requirements. However, the success or failure of these workstreams is dependent on uncertain future events that are not wholly within alstria's control. As of the reporting date, the Company cannot fully assess whether or not the REIT status will be upheld and is planning for both outcomes. Given the level of uncertainty and the Company's lack of control over the outcome, no provision is recorded as of the reporting date. However, the Company has considered it appropriate to disclose the existence of contingent liabilities, which could have a material impact on the Group's financial position and performance.

Potential Impact on Consolidated Financial Statements if REIT Status is Lost:

1. Deferred Tax Liabilities:

  • If the Company loses its REIT status, it will need to book deferred tax liabilities reflecting the "hidden reserves" in its portfolio.
  • Deferred tax liabilities would amount to approximately EUR $376.4 \mathrm{~m}^{*}$ as of the reporting date, triggering an equivalent loss in alstria's P\&L for 2024.
  • $\quad$ The final amount of deferred tax liabilities will depend, among other factors, on the Company's asset valuation and the asset depreciation for FY2024 on its tax balance sheet.

2. Minority Shareholder's Compensation:

  • Under specific circumstances, the Company bylaws require compensation to minority shareholders (Article 20 of the Company bylaws).
  • $\quad$ The compensation shall reflect the disadvantage to minority shareholders in terms of distributions resulting from the termination of the tax exemption, considering the tax benefits of the shareholders on a lump-sum basis.
  • It shall be determined with binding effect for the shareholders by an auditor appointed by the Institute of Auditors in Germany e.V.
  • As there is no precedent for this calculation, there is a material uncertainty regarding the impact of Article 20 of the bylaws on the Company's financial statements.

The Company will continue to monitor the situation and will recognize a provision if it becomes probable that (i) an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and (ii) that outflow can be properly determined.

The ACES have a term of two years and their performance is linked to certain budget-based indicators.
