Portfolio

Portfolio segmentation and housing stock

The LEG portfolio can be divided into three market clusters using a scoring system: high-growth markets, stable markets, and higheryielding markets. The indicators for the scoring system are described in the annual report 2023. The portfolio is spread over around 240 locations, most of which are in LEG's home state of North Rhine-Westphalia. In addition, properties are held in the federal states of Lower Saxony, Bremen, Schleswig-Holstein, Hesse, Rhineland-Palatinate, and Baden-Wuerttemberg.

The property portfolio as of 31 March 2024 included 165,953 residential units, 1,509 commercial units and 46,673 garages and parking spaces. The average flat size was 63 square metres, and the average monthly inplace rent was EUR 6.68 per square metre.

Operating performance

The actual in-place rent on a comparable portfolio basis (like-for-like) was EUR 6.67 per square metre and month on 31 March 2024. This corresponds to an increase of 3.5 % within one year. Rent table adjustments contributed 2.0 %, modernisations and new lettings 1.5 %. There is no cost rent adjustment for the rent-restricted portfolio in 2024.

Hence, rent growth in the first quarter of 2024 came from the freefinanced units which account for 81 % of the portfolio. Here, the actual in-place rent rose by 4.1 % to EUR 6.99 per square metre (like-for-like) compared to the previous year. Within the free-financed portfolio, the high-growth markets re %corded an increase of 4.3 % to EUR 8.06 per square metre (like-for-like). The actual in-place rent in the stable markets of the free-financed portfolio increased by an average of 4.2 % to EUR 6.69 per square metre (like-for-like). In the higher-yielding markets, the monthly in-place rent rose by 3.7 % to EUR 6.32 per square metre (like-for-like).

The average monthly rent in the rent-restricted portfolio only increased by 0.02 EUR to EUR 5.38 per square metre (like-for-like). The next cost rent adjustment will take place in 2026.

The EPRA vacancy rate on a like-for-like basis as at 31 March 2024 could be reduced even further by 30 basis points to 2.5 % (like-for-like) compared to the previous year's reporting date. The lowest vacancy rate was recorded in the high-growth markets at 1.6 %. In the stable markets, the EPRA vacancy rate was 2.4 % as at the reporting date, and in the higher-yielding markets it was 4.2% (always on a like-for-like basis).

Income taxes – 19.9 – 30.0
Net profit or loss for the period 57.8 96.3

Net operating income rose by 4.0 % in the reporting period. This development is essentially a result of the increase in net cold rents.

Adjusted EBITDA increased by 0.4 % from EUR 157.0 million to EUR 157.6 million. The adjusted EBITDA margin was 73.6 % in the reporting period (comparable period: 76.1 %).

The EUR 7.4 million decline in net income from other services is mainly due to the special effects of EUR 7.0 million from the sales of electricity produced by LEG in the same period of the previous year.

The decrease in net income from investment securities and other equity investments to EUR – 7.6 million results from the valuation of the investment in Brack Capital Properties N.V. at fair value.

In the reporting period, net income from the fair value measurement of derivatives primarily resulted from changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives from the convertible bonds of EUR – 2.3 million (comparable period: EUR 0.5 million).

The tax expense relates almost entirely to deferred taxes.

Net operating income margin (recurring in %) 79.9 78.2

In the reporting period, net operating income increased by EUR 5.4 million compared to the same period of the previous year. The main driver of this development is the increase in net cold rent of EUR 7.8 million. In-place rent per square metre on a like-for-like basis rose by 3.5 % year-on-year. In addition, the subsidies recognized in income led to an increase of EUR 3.9 million in the line item Others. This was offset by an increase of EUR 5.2 million in maintenance expenses for externally procured services and the EUR 3.8 million increase in personnel expenses from rental and lease due to tariff increases and additional inflation compensation bonuses granted.

The adjusted net operating income (NOI)-margin increased from 78.2 % to 79.9 % compared to the same period of the previous year.

The presentation of EPRA capex breaks down the capitalisation of investments and reconciles them to the payments for investments in investment properties. Value-adding capital expenditure, consisting of development (new construction on own land in the amount of EUR 1.6 million) and modernisation work in investment property (EUR 47.3 million), declined by 0.4 % to EUR 48.9 million in the reporting period. As acquisitions also decreased from EUR 184.9 million to EUR 17.0 million and now only include pro rata payments for acquired project developments, EPRA Capex amounts to EUR 65.9 million in the reporting period (comparative period: EUR 234.0 million).

Maintenance expenses of EUR 40.7 million and value-adding capital expenditure in investment property and property, plant and equipment of EUR 52.8 million resulted in total investment of EUR 93.5 million in the reporting period (comparative period: EUR 81.2 million). In addition to maintenance expenses of EUR 30.4 million (comparative period: EUR 25.2 million) for externally purchased services recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, maintenance expenses also include the intragroup maintenance expenses of EUR 10.3 million (comparative period: EUR 6.5 million). Investment in investment property, value-adding capital expenditure (capex) and capex (recurring) include expansion investments in the form of new construction activities on own land but not purchased project developments. Consolidation effects, investment for new construction activities on own land, own work capitalised and subsidies recognised in profit or loss of EUR 11.5 million (comparative period: EUR 9.6 million) in total were eliminated from total investment to calculate total investment per square metre. Adjusted total investment amounts to EUR 82.0 million and average total investment was EUR 7.58 (comparative period: EUR 6.59 million) per square metre in the reporting period. The adjusted capitalisation ratio declined to 52.4 % in the reporting period (comparative period: 56.0 %).

Income from the disposal of investment properties amounted to EUR 40.0 million (comparative period: EUR 24.7 million) and essentially relates to one major block sales which contract was concluded in the 2023 financial year, but the transfer of ownership did not take place until the 2024 financial year.

Net income from the disposal of real estate inventory

The remaining real estate inventory held as at 31 March 2024 comprises EUR 0.1 million of land under development.

The increase in personnel expenses is due to tariff increases and additional inflation compensation bonuses granted. As a result, adjusted administrative expenses increased by EUR 1.8 million in the first three months compared to the same period in the previous year.

Net finance earnings – 49.3 – 0.6

Interest expenses increased in the first quarter 2024 compared to the same period in the previous year by EUR – 5.4 million to EUR – 43.4 million. The rise in interest expenses was mainly due to disbursements after the comparative period and a higher interest rate level.

Year-on-year the average interest rate rose to 1.59 % as at 31 March 2024 (1.35 % as at 31 March 2023) on an average term of 5.90 years (6.36 years as at 31 March 2023). The decrease in net income from investment securities and other equity investments to EUR – 7.6 million results from the valuation of the investment in Brack Capital Properties N.V. at fair value. The share price on the reporting date was EUR 58.33 (EUR 110.12 as at 31 March 2023).

In the reporting period, net income from the fair value measurement of derivatives resulted primarily from changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives from the convertible bond in the amount of EUR – 2.3 million (comparative period: EUR 0.5 million).

Income tax expenses – 19.9 – 30.0

An effective Group tax rate of 22.5% was assumed in the reporting period in accordance with Group tax planning (comparative period: 20.7 %). The increase is mainly due to the discontinuation of the so-called extended trade tax reduction for four portfolio-holding Group companies.

Reconciliation to AFFO

AFFO is one of the most important key financial performance indicators for Group management. LEG distinguishes between FFO I (excluding net income from the disposal of investment properties), FFO II (including net income from the disposal of in-vestment properties) and AFFO (FFO I adjusted for capex). Please refer to the segment reporting for further disclosures.

Based on FFO I (after non-controlling interests), AFFO takes recurring capex measures (capex (recurring)) into account. Recurring capex measures are defined as capitalised costs from modernisation and maintenance measures as well as new construction activities on own land. When determining costs from modernisation and maintenance measures, consolidation effects due to internally procured services resulting from the elimination of intercompany profits are eliminated.

The calculation of AFFO, FFO I, and FFO II for the reporting and comparison period is as follows:

At EUR 48.6 million, AFFO in the reporting period was – 11.5 % lower than in the same period of the previous year (EUR 54.9 million). The decline in AFFO is due in particular to increased expenses for maintenance and interest as well as the non-occurrence of earnings from electricity produced by LEG.

Investment properties increased primarily as a result of additions from acquisitions of EUR 17.0 million and capitalisation of modernisation measures of EUR 49.8 million.

The recognition of real estate tax expense as other inventories (EUR 22.5 million) for the remainder of the financial year and the deferral of prepaid operating costs of EUR 31.2 million and investments in short-term funds (EUR 56.4 million) as well as the decline in rent receivables (EUR 13.2 million) contributed significantly to the development of the receivables and other assets.

As at 31 March 2024, in addition to cash and cash equivalents of EUR 285.2 million, there were short-term funds of EUR 184.4 million.

Non-current and current financial liabilities decreased slightly by EUR 6.6 million compared to the previous reporting date.

While the increase in other non-current liabilities resulted in particular from the increase in deferred tax liabilities (EUR +19.7 million), within other current liabilities, trade payables (EUR +56.9 million) increased essentially due to deferred property tax and other operating costs.

EPRA Net Tangible Asset (EPRA NTA)

The EPRA NRV, NTA and NDV are relevant indicators for the real estate industry. LEG has defined the EPRA NTA as its primary key figure. The calculation system for the respective key figure can be found in the glossary of the Annual Report 2023.

LEG reports an EPRA NTA of EUR 9,462.9 million or EUR 127.69 per share as at 31 March 2024. In the calculation, deferred taxes on investment

property are adjusted by the amount attributable to planned property disposals by LEG. Incidental acquisition costs are not taken into account. The key figures are presented on a diluted basis only. As at 31 March 2024, no dilution effects from the convertible bonds are taken into account, as the share price does not exceed the current conversion prices as at the reporting date.

Loan to value ratio (LTV)

Net debt at the end of the reporting period has decreased compared with 31 December 2023. In addition, the increase in property assets contributed to a slightly lower loan to value ratio (LTV) of 47.9 % at the interim reporting date (31 December 2023: 48.4 %).

EPRA LTV

By contrast to LTV, hybrid debt instruments with equity components such as mandatory convertible bonds are treated as financial liabilities until the date of conversion. Financial liabilities are taken into account at their nominal amount, and cash and cash equivalents are defined in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, net debt and net assets of joint

ventures and significant associates are included while significant noncontrolling interests are eliminated.

Kommunale Haus und Wohnen GmbH and Beckumer Wohnungsgesellschaft mbH are included as material associates. Furthermore, Brack Capital Properties N. V. is taken into account for reasons of transparency, although it is not an associated company from LEG's perspective.

Financial position

A net profit for the period of EUR 57.8 million was generated in the reporting period (comparative period: EUR 96.3 million). Equity amounted to EUR 7,550.4 million at the reporting date (31 December 2023: EUR 7,488.2 million). This corresponds to an equity ratio of 38.9 % (31 December 2023: 38.8 %).

A condensed form of the LEG 's statement of cash flows for the reporting period is shown below:

Cash flow statement

€ million 01.01. –
31.03.2024
01.01. –
31.03.2023
Cash flow from operating activities 134.4 125.1
Cash flow from investing activities – 111.9 – 137.8
Cash flow from financing activities – 14.8 – 53.7
Change in cash and cash equivalents 7.7 – 66.4

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

Essentially, acquisitions and modernisation of the existing portfolio with payments of EUR – 79.4 million and the investments in shortterm funds in the amount of EUR – 56.4 million contributed to the cash flow from investing activities in the amount of EUR – 111.9 million. This was offset by cash inflows from the sale of properties amounting to EUR 26.3 million.

In the first quarter of 2024, current repayments of bank loans (EUR – 23.7 million), the issuance of loans to third parties (EUR – 10.1 million) and opposing the borrowing of new loans of EUR 22.3 million are the main drivers for the cash flow from financing activities in the amount of EUR – 14.8 million.

LEG's solvency was ensured at all times in the reporting period.

Risk and opportunity report

The risks and opportunities faced by LEG in its operating activities were described in detail in the annual report 2023. To date, no further

significant risks that would lead to a different assessment have arisen or become discernible in the fiscal year 2024.

Selected Notes on the IFRS Interim Consolidated Financial statements as at 31 March 2024

1. Basic information on the Group

LEG Immobilien SE, and its subsidiaries and sub-subsidiaries, in particular LEG NRW GmbH, Dusseldorf, and its subsidiaries, collectively "LEG", are among the largest housing companies in Germany. On 31 March 2024, LEG held a portfolio of 167,462 (31 March 2023: 168,591) residential and commercial units (167,258 (31 March 2023: 168,347) units excluding IFRS 5 objects).

As an integrated property company, LEG engages in three core activities: the optimisation of the core business, the expansion of the value chain as well as consolidating the management platform.

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

2. Interim consolidated financial statements

LEG Immobilien SE 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.

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

3. Accounting policies

The accounting policies applied in the interim consolidated financial statements of LEG Immobilien SE are the same as those presented in the IFRS consolidated financial statements as of 31 December 2023. These interim consolidated financial statements as at 31 March 2024 should therefore be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2023.

LEG Immobilien SE has fully applied the new standards and interpretations that are mandatory from 1 January 2024. There were no effects on the net assets, financial position and results of operations.

4. Changes in the Group

There were no changes in the Group as at 31 March 2024.

5. Assumptions 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 assumptions 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 2023.

6. Selected notes to the consolidated statement of financial position

On 31 March 2024, LEG held 165,953 apartments and 1,509 commercial units in its portfolio (167,258 units excluding IFRS 5 objects).

Investment properties were remeasured most recently by LEG as of 31 December 2023. No further fair value adjustment was made as at 31 March 2024. With regard to the calculation methods and parameters, please refer to the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2023.

Significant market developments and measurement parameters affecting the market values of LEG are reviewed each quarter. If necessary, the property portfolio is revalued. As at 31 March 2024, the results of this review did not require any value adjustment. Currently, no significant transactions can be observed on the market that would call into question the long-term value of the real estate portfolio.

The right of use leases result from rented land and buildings, cars, heat contracting, metering and reporting technology, IT peripheral devices as well as software.

In the reporting period right of uses in the amount of EUR 0.9 million have been added.

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

Cash and cash equivalents mainly consist of bank balances as well as money market funds.

Financing liabilities are composed as follows:

Financing liabilities

€ million 31.03.2024 31.12.2023
Financing liabilities from real estate financing 9,259.8 9,264.9
Financing liabilities from lease financing 109.4 110.9
Financing liabilities 9,369.2 9,375.8

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

The consolidated financial statements of LEG Immobilien SE reported financial liabilities from real estate financing of EUR 9,259.8 million as at 31 March 2024. In the first quarter of 2024, loans in the amount of

Capital markets instruments as of 31.03.2024

EUR 22.3 million were valued. This was offset by scheduled and unscheduled repayments of EUR 23.7 million and the amortisation of transaction costs.

The financial liabilities from real estate financing include the following capital market instruments as at the reporting date:

€ million IFRS carrying amount Nominal value
Convertible bond 2020/2028 534.7 550.0
Convertible bond 2017/2025 396.7 400.0
Bond 2023/2029 83.2 100.0
Bond 2023/2031 73.0 100.0
Bond 2022/2026 498.4 500.0
Bond 2022/2029 496.3 500.0
Bond 2022/2034 496.1 500.0
Bond 2021/2032 494.6 500.0
Bond 2021/2031 599.0 600.0
Bond 2021/2033 594.6 600.0
Bond 2019/2033 297.6 300.0
Bond 2019/2027 498.7 500.0

The convertible bonds were classified and recognised in full as debt due to the issuer's contractual cash settlement option. There are several embedded derivatives and derivatives that must be separated that are to be jointly regarded as a compound derivative and carried at fair value. The host debt instrument is recognised at amortised cost.

The change in financial liabilities from lease financing in the reporting period essentially results from the decrease in lease liabilities for measurement and reporting technology as well as buildings. For leases that have already been concluded and do not begin until after the balance sheet date, there will be possible future cash outflows of EUR 1.7 million.

Maturity of financing liabilities from real estate financing are composed as follows:

The main driver for the change in the maturity distribution compared to 31 December 2023 is the remaining maturity of two corporate bonds,

which led to an increase in financial debt with a mid-term maturity and a corresponding decrease in financial debt with a long-term maturity.

7. Selected notes to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income

Net operating income is broken down as follows:

Net operating income

€ million 01.01. –
31.03.2024
01.01. –
31.03.2023
Net cold rent 214.1 206.3

Own work capitalised – 2.7 – 3.5
Net operating income (recurring) 171.1 161.4
Net operating income margin (recurring in %) 79.9 78.2

In the reporting period, net operating income increased by EUR 5.4 million compared to the same period of the previous year. The main driver of this development is the increase in net cold rent of EUR 7.8 million. In-place rent per square metre on a like-for-like basis rose by 3.5 % year-on-year. In addition, the subsidies recognized in income led to an increase of EUR 3.9 million in the line item Others. This was offset by an increase of EUR 5.2 million in maintenance expenses for externally procured services and the EUR 3.8 million increase in personnel expenses from rental and lease due to tariff increases and additional inflation compensation bonuses granted.

The adjusted net operating income (NOI)-margin increased from 78.2 % to 79.9 % compared to the same period of the previous year.

In the reporting period the following depreciation expenses for right of use from leases were included.

Depreciation and amortisation 0.8 0.8
Non-recurring special effects (administration) 2.0 2.1
Administrative and other expenses (recurring) – 14.1 – 12.3

The increase in personnel expenses is due to tariff increases and additional inflation compensation bonuses granted. As a result, adjusted administrative expenses increased by EUR 1.8 million in the first three months compared to the same period in the previous year.

In the reporting period following depreciation expenses for right of use from leases are included.

Depreciation expenses of leases

31.03.2024
01.01. –
31.03.2023
Interest income from bank balances 1.8 0.3
Interest income from loans 0.1
Other interest income 2.2 0.8
Interest income 4.1 1.1

Interest income increased by EUR 3.0 million to EUR 4.1 million compared to the same period of the previous year. The increase in interest income is mainly due to higher interest on cash investments.

Interest expenses

€ million 01.01. –
31.03.2024
01.01. –
31.03.2023
Interest expenses from real estate financing – 37.0 – 31.2

Interest expenses from lease financing – 0.6 – 0.6
Other interest expenses – 0.7 – 0.6
Interest expenses – 43.4 – 38.0

The increase in interest expenses by EUR – 5.4 million to EUR – 43.4 million is mainly due to the valuations after the comparative period and higher interest rate level.

Income taxes

Income tax expenses

31.03.2024
01.01. –
31.03.2023
Current tax expenses – 0.3 – 0.7
Deferred tax expenses – 19.6 – 29.3
Income tax expenses – 19.9 – 30.0

An effective Group tax rate of 22.5% was assumed in the reporting period in accordance with Group tax planning (previous year: 20.7 %). The increase is mainly due to the discontinuation of the so-called extended trade tax reduction at four portfolio-holding Group companies.

Intermedia result in € 0.84 1.18
Diluted earnings per share in € 0.77 1.18

As at 31 March 2024, LEG Immobilien SE had convertible bonds outstanding, which authorise the bearer to conversion into up to 7.1 million new ordinary 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.

8. Notes on Group segment reporting

LEG has operated in only one segment since the 2016 financial year. It generates its revenue and holds its assets exclusively in Germany. In the financial year 2024, LEG did not generate sales of more than 10% of total reported sales with any customer.

In addition to the minimum disclosures required by IFRS 8, the company's key performance indicators are explained and presented below. These correspond to the management and reporting system used by LEG Immobilien SE for corporate management and provide a deeper insight into the economic performance of our company.

Internal reporting at LEG deviates from the IFRS accounting figures. LEG's internal reporting focuses in particular on the key performance indicators of AFFO I, the adjusted EBITDA margin and LTV, as well as the other key financial performance indicators figures for the housing industry of EPRA NTA and net cold rent. The alternative performance indicators presented below are not based on IFRS figures, with the exception of the comments on LTV.

AFFO

AFFO is one of the most important key financial performance indicator for Group management. LEG distinguishes between FFO I (excluding 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).

Based on FFO I (after non-controlling interests), AFFO takes recurring capex measures (capex (recurring)) into account. Recurring capex measures are defined as capitalised costs from modernisation and maintenance measures as well as new construction activities on own land. When determining costs from modernisation and maintenance measures, consolidation effects due to internally procured services resulting from the elimination of intercompany profits are eliminated.

The calculation of AFFO, FFO I, and FFO II for the reporting and comparison period is as follows:

EBITDA is adjusted for non-recurring effects to ensure comparability with previous periods. Adjustments are made for all items that are not attributable to operations in the period and that have a not insignificant effect on EBITDA. These special effects of a non-recurring nature include project costs for business model and process optimisation, personnel matters, acquisition and integration costs, capital market financing and M&A activities as well as other atypical matters. These are composed as follows:

EPRA Net Tangible Asset (EPRA NTA)

The EPRA NRV, NTA and NDV are relevant indicators for the real estate industry. LEG has defined the EPRA NTA as its primary key figure. Another relevant key financial indicator is EPRA NTA per share. The calculation system for the respective key figures can be found in the glossary of the 2023 annual report.

LEG reports an EPRA NTA of EUR 9,462.9 million or EUR 127,69 per share as at 31 March 2024. In the calculation, deferred taxes on investment property are adjusted by the amount attributable to planned property disposals by LEG. Incidental acquisition costs are not taken into account. The key figures are presented on a diluted basis only. As at 31 March 2024, no dilution effects from the convertible bonds are taken into account, as the share price does not exceed the current conversion prices as at the reporting date.

1 Taking into account the incidental acquisition costs would result in an EPRA NTA of €11,213.2 million or €151.31 per share (31 December 2023: €11,127.5 million or €150.15 per share).

LEG's calculation of EPRA NTA is based on the Best Practice Recommendations of the European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA).

The purchase price obligations from share deals recognised as liabilities are shown as effects from the exercise of options, convertible bonds and other rights to equity amounting to EUR 28.5 million.

Deferred taxes resulting from the measurement of investment property and from the measurement of publicly subsidised loans as well as the measurement of derivatives are adjusted in the amount of the equity

impact. Deferred taxes relating to the planned sales programme are not taken into account in the determination of the EPRA NTA. These amount to a total of EUR 1,957.9 million as at 31 March 2024.

Effects of the fair value measurement of derivative financial instruments are also eliminated in calculating the EPRA NTA. If these effects from the measurement of derivatives relate to the equity value calculated in the "Hybrid instruments" item, these are not included in "Fair value of financial instruments". As at 31 March 2024, these effects total EUR – 44.3 million.

In addition, all recognised intangible assets are eliminated. As at 31 March 2024 these totalled EUR 4.6 million.

The estimated incidental acquisition costs are calculated on the basis of the net market values of the property portfolio. In accordance with the property portfolios in the various federal states, real estate transfer tax is taken into account. In addition, brokerage courtage and notary fees are applied in determining the estimated incidental acquisition costs.

LTV

Loan to value ratio (LTV)

Net debt at the end of the reporting period has decreased compared with 31 December 2023. In addition, the increase in property assets contributed to a slightly lower loan to value ratio (LTV) of 47.9 % at the interim reporting date (31 December 2023: 48.4 %).

Maintenance and modernisation

The maintenance expenses from the perspective of the companies that hold properties consist of maintenance expenses for externally purchased services and maintenance expenses purchased internally by the service companies of LEG. Value-adding capital expenditure includes investment in investment property and in property, plant and equipment. Investment in investment property, value-adding capital expenditure (capex) and capex (recurring) include expansion investments in the form of new construction activities by LEG but not purchased project developments. Consolidation effects, investment for new construction work by LEG, own work capitalised and subsidies recognised in profit or loss are eliminated from total investment when calculating total investment per square metre.

9. Financial instruments

The table below 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 IFRS 9 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.

LEG Immobilien SE Q1 2024

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.

As at 31 March 2024, the fair value of a shareholding amounts to EUR 160.8 million (31 December 2023: EUR 168,3 million). The change compared to the previous reporting date amounts to EUR 7.5 million, of which EUR 7.5 million was recognised in profit or loss. This participation is allocated to Level 1 of the measurement hierarchy, as there is an active market for the shares.

The fair value of the other investments in the amount of EUR 160.4 million was last calculated as at 31 December 2023 using DCF procedures as there are no quoted prices in an active market for the relevant investments. The fair value calculated using valuation models is allocated to Level 3 of the IFRS 13 measurement hierarchy. Allocation to Level 3 takes place based on valuation models with inputs not observed on a market. The other companies continue to be measured using the simplified income capitalisation approach. The main model parameter in the simplified income capitalisation approach is the capitalisation rate of 7.1 %. The fair value of the portfolio companies is determined on the basis of the property values of the respective companies. The property values are determined on the basis of offer prices from a market database. The 25 % percentile of the offer prices was selected for the valuation.

The stress test of the relevant valuation parameters for the other companies was carried out as at 31 December 2023 by increasing or decreasing the capitalisation rate by 50 basis points and for the real estate companies by using the 10 % percentile or median of the offer prices. The stress test of these parameters results in a reduction in the fair value to EUR 100.3 million when using the 10 % percentile and increasing the capitalisation rate by 50 basis points and an increase in the fair value to EUR 210.1 million when using the median and reducing the capitalisation rate by 50 basis points.
