A challenging economic environment continues to define the commercial real estate market in the third quarter. With the outlook for interest rate development still uncertain, the transaction market is weak and deals are at historically low levels. Increased financing costs make pricing difficult for market players and are leading to continued price pressure.
In view of the difficult economic situation in many sectors, the rental market is characterised by a strong reluctance to lease new space. The rent level, on the other hand, seems to remain largely stable. A positive factor for lessors is the significant decline in developer activity for new office and retail space, which has led to many lessees being willing to renew their leases.
In this market environment, DEMIRE continues to generate solid results in line with expectations. Rental income for the first nine months of 2023 remains stable at EUR 59.9 million compared to the previous period. At the same time, funds from operations I after taxes (FFO I) have fallen by 9.8% to EUR 27.8 million, mainly due to lower rental income and higher income taxes.
For the refinancing, we had planned to create additional liquidity from summer 2022. At the end of the third quarter, DEMIRE had a significantly improved cash position of EUR 132 million (plus EUR 75 million since the end of 2022). In addition to the operational business, sales contributed significantly to the creation of additional liquidity.
In recent weeks, the dialogue with bondholders, which has been ongoing since the issue of the 2019/2024 bond, has intensified in order to find a viable solution for refinancing the bond maturing in October 2024 in the coming months.
Furthermore, we would like to draw your attention to our progress in terms of sustainability. Our sustainability report this year was awarded gold for the first time by the EPRA European Public Real Estate Association, after being awarded silver the previous year. We see this as recognition for the improvements we have achieved and as an incentive to continue on our path towards becoming a sustainable real estate company.
After the first nine months, the Executive Board can confirm the forecast for the 2023 financial year: rental income will be between EUR 74.5 million and EUR 76.5 million (2022: EUR 81.1 million), and FFO I (after taxes, before minority interests) is expected to be between EUR 33.0 million and EUR 35.0 million (2022: EUR 41.8 million).
We hope you find this report an interesting read and look forward to your comments and ideas.

DEMIRE's business developed robustly in the first nine months of 2023. In the reporting period, the insolvency of Karstadt in particular had a negative impact on the vacancy rate and the like-for-like development of the annualised contractual rent. The financial result, on the other hand, was positive. Positive contributions were generated here as a result of the below-par bond buyback and lower financial expenses. Funds from operations declined moderately, partly due to a slightly lower result from rentals and, as in the previous quarter, higher income taxes. Due to the weak rental market and fewer expiring leases in the property portfolio in 2023 and 2024, the letting performance will also be significantly lower, especially compared to the record result of the previous year. Nevertheless, despite the property sales and against the backdrop of the weak economic environment, the Group's key figures are solid overall and in line with the Company's planning and expectations.
In view of the maturity of the 2019/2024 bond in October 2024 with a nominal value of EUR 499.0 million as at the reporting date, the Executive Board, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, is still pursuing the goal of increasing the liquidity reserve. Liquidity showed further improvement at the end of the third quarter.
DEMIRE's key indicators developed as follows in the first nine months of 2023:
Given the development in the first nine months of 2023, the Executive Board confirms the forecast for the 2023 financial year: rental income will be between EUR 74.5 million and EUR 76.5 million (2022: EUR 81.1 million), and FFO I (after taxes, before minority interests) is expected to be between EUR 33.0 million and EUR 35.0 million (2022: EUR 41.8 million).

Between the end of the previous year and the reporting date, the property portfolio decreased to 60 properties (31 December 2022: 62 properties). The lettable area of the buildings in the portfolio is around 861,200 m² (31 December 2022: 912,700 m²) and the total market value is approximately EUR 1.2 billion (31 December 2022: approximately EUR 1.3 billion). The last external property valuation of the portfolio, excluding the properties held for sale, was carried out on 30 June 2023.
The EPRA Vacancy Rate1 increased to 12.6% as at the reporting date of 30 September 2023, following 9.5% on 31 December 2022. The increase is mainly due to the additional vacancy of the Karstadt space in Celle, the office property in Düsseldorf and the property in Kassel. WALT was 4.4 years as at 30 September 2023, compared to 4.8 years as at year-end 2022. In the period under review, DEMIRE achieved a rental performance of 27,240 m² (9M 2022: 198,840 m²). As well as the weak market situation, the significant decline is due to fewer leases expiring in the property portfolio in 2023 and 2024. 41% of the letting performance was attributable to new lettings and 59% to prolongations. The rental performance was driven, inter alia, by a new lease spanning 3,200 m² in Langenfeld as well as an extension in Darmstadt spanning 4,720 m² and two extensions of around 2,500 m² each in Flensburg and Aschheim.

Results of operations, net assets and financial position
In the first nine months of 2023, the DEMIRE Group generated rental income totalling EUR 59.9 million (previous year: EUR 59.9 million). Rental income remained stable compared to the same period last year despite a reduced portfolio base primarily due to rent indexation. The result from the rental of real estate decreased by 4.9% to EUR 45.3 million (previous year: EUR 47.7 million), mainly due to one-off operating expenses from previous years.
The result from the sale of properties was EUR –12.9 million in the first nine months of 2023 (previous year: EUR 1.1 million). The properties in Ulm and Apolda were both sold. In the comparative period, the investment in a fully depreciated foreign real estate company was sold. The result from the fair value adjustment of investment properties amounted to EUR –59.7 million (previous year: EUR 0.2 million), mainly due to market condition-related devaluation in the middle of the year. The adjustment to the assets held for sale was EUR 25.3 million (previous year: EUR 0 million).
Impairments on receivables increased significantly and amounted to EUR 1.6 million in the first nine months of 2023 (previous year: EUR 0.4 million). In the previous year, income was generated from the reversal of impairments, which had the opposite effect on the impairments.
General and administrative expenses rose in the first nine months of 2023, in particular due to higher legal and consulting costs as well as personnel costs, and amounted to EUR 9.5 million (previous year: EUR 7.2 million).
Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) were in the negative range at EUR –64.6 million (previous year: EUR 41.2 million), mainly due to the revaluation of the property portfolio in the middle of the year.
The financial result benefited from the financial income generated from the belowpar bond buyback in April 2023. Furthermore, financial expenses fell by 8.6% to EUR –12.9 million (previous year: EUR –14.1 million). The average nominal interest on borrowed capital was 1.74% p.a. (previous year: 1.67% p.a.). Minority interests in earnings fell to EUR 0.9 million (previous year: EUR 3.5 million), in particular due to the devaluations of properties. Overall, the financial result in the first nine months of 2023 amounted to EUR 7.1 million, compared to EUR –12.9 million in the same period of the previous year.
Earnings before taxes (EBT) fell to EUR –57.5 million in the reporting period, compared to EUR 28.2 million in the previous year.
Current income taxes increased to EUR 9.0 million (previous year: EUR 2.9 million), which was mainly due to the sale of properties. There were no sales in the same period in the previous year.
The negative result of the property valuation led to a positive contribution from deferred taxes in the amount of EUR 16.9 million (previous year: EUR –3.4 million).
The profit for the first nine months of 2023 was EUR –49.5 million, compared to EUR 21.9 million in the same period of the previous year.

As at 30 September 2023, the total assets had decreased by EUR 100.0 million to EUR 1,436.8 million compared to year-end 2022. This resulted primarily from the market-related devaluation of the real estate portfolio and the buyback of the bond below par. The value of investment properties as at 30 September 2023 was EUR 920.6 million, a decrease therefore of EUR 310.5 million compared to 31 December 2022. In addition to the sales of the properties in Ulm and Apolda, the decrease was driven by sales pursued for numerous properties for which potential buyers have submitted written offers. Since year-end 2022, non-current assets held for sale have thus increased by EUR 144.8 million. By contrast, only the LogPark logistics property in Leipzig was reported as held for sale at the end of 2022.
Group equity as at 30 September 2023 totalled EUR 436.4 million, compared with EUR 486.7 million as at 31 December 2022. The main reason for the decline was the devaluation of the property portfolio and the associated negative result for the period. The equity ratio amounted to 30.4% (31 December 2022: 31.7%). It should be noted that non-controlling minority interests reported in the Group's borrowed capital of around EUR 78.6 million (31 December 2022: EUR 80.4 million) are carried as non-current liabilities and not as equity in accordance with IFRS, solely as a result of the legal form of Fair Value REIT's fund participations as partnerships. The corresponding adjusted Group equity totalled approximately EUR 515.0 million (31 December 2022: EUR 567.1 million).
Total financial liabilities amounted to EUR 797.1 million as at 30 September 2023. These decreased by EUR 31.9 million compared to 31 December 2022. The main reason for this was the bond buyback with a nominal value of EUR 51.0 million, which occurred in April 2023. This was partly offset by taking up new mortgage loans or increasing their value, for instance for the properties in Bad Vilbel and Meckenheim, for instance, totalling EUR 23.3 million.

Cash flow from operating activities in the first nine months of 2023 amounted to EUR 40.1 million (previous year: EUR 34.3 million).
Cash flow from investing activities amounted to EUR 67.8 million in the reporting period, compared to EUR –24.2 million in the previous year. The difference compared to the previous period is mainly due to proceeds from the sale of properties. At the same time, there were higher payments for modernisation measures in the previous period.
Cash flow from financing activities came to EUR –32.9 million, compared to EUR –54.1 million in the same period of the previous year. On the one hand, the change was driven by the below-par partial bond buyback in April 2023, which led to a cash outflow of EUR 35.0 million. On the other hand, mortgage loans totalling EUR 23.3 million were taken out. In the comparative period, no borrowings were repaid on an unscheduled basis, nor were any new loans taken out. Furthermore, in contrast to the previous period, no dividend was paid to DEMIRE shareholders in the first nine months of 2023 in order to create additional liquidity against the background of the expiring 2019/2024 bond.
Cash and cash equivalents amounted to EUR 132.3 million on 30 September 2023 (31 December 2022: EUR 57.4 million; 30 September 2022: EUR 95.6 million).

The undiluted net asset value fell from EUR 526.3 million as at 31 December 2022 to EUR 461.8 million as at 30 September 2023 due in particular to the market condition-related devaluation of the property portfolio. On an undiluted basis, the NAV as at the reporting date was EUR 4.38 per share (31 December 2022: EUR 4.99 per share).

The DEMIRE Group's net loan-to-value ratio is defined in the 2019/2024 bond prospectus as the ratio of net financial liabilities to the sum of all assets less intangible assets and cash and cash equivalents. The net loan-to-value ratio fell moderately to 52.9% (from 54.0% at the end of 2022). Property sales and the below-par bond buyback were the main factors behind the decline. The devaluation of the property portfolio had the opposite effect.
Within the scope of issuing the 2019/2024 corporate bond, DEMIRE undertook to comply with and regularly report on various covenants. The definition of the covenants to be reported on is listed in the offering prospectus for the 2019/2024 corporate bond.
As at 30 September 2023, DEMIRE had complied with all covenants of the 2019/2024 corporate bond. In addition, the planning for 2023 and beyond assumes that the covenants will also be complied with at all times in the future.

Please refer to the disclosures made in the opportunities and risks report included within the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2022 for information on the opportunities and risks of future business performance. In addition to the opportunities and risks recorded as at 31 December 2022, the current financial year was largely determined by high inflation, the resulting rise in interest rates and the weak economic environment.
The 2019/2024 bond with a nominal value of EUR 499 million maturing in October 2024 has become a current liability as at the publication date of this report. In this context, the Company is looking intensively into the refinancing of the bond and is already in talks with a group of bondholders or their advisers about this.
The opportunities and risks are reviewed on a continual basis as part of a a structured process. From today's perspective, there are no discernible risks that could jeopardise the Company.
Information on transactions with related parties and events after the balance sheet date can be found in Section G. 1 and Section G. 6 of the notes.

1. Basis of preparation
DEMIRE Deutsche Mittelstand Real Estate AG (hereafter "DEMIRE AG") is recorded in the commercial register in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, the location of the Company's headquarters, under the number HRB 89041. The Company's registered office is located in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, and the Company's business address is Robert-Bosch-Strasse 11, Langen, Germany.
The Company's shares are listed in the Prime Standard segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
The subject of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements as at 30 September 2023 is DEMIRE AG and its subsidiaries (hereafter referred to as "DEMIRE").
DEMIRE AG itself has not carried out any investments in property or property projects to date. Investments are generally processed through property companies. Interests in these property companies are held by DEMIRE AG either directly or indirectly (through intermediate holding companies). DEMIRE focuses on the German commercial property market where it is an active investor and portfolio manager. DEMIRE itself carries out the acquisition, management and leasing of commercial properties. Value appreciation is to be achieved through active property management. This may also include the targeted sale of properties when they are no longer a strategic fit or have exhausted their potential for value appreciation.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period from 1 January to 30 September 2023 were prepared in accordance with the requirements of IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting (hereafter IAS 34). This report has not been audited or subjected to audit review, and for this reason does not contain an auditor's opinion.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of DEMIRE AG were prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) published by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as adopted by the European Union (EU), applying Section 315e of the German Commercial Code (HGB). All International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRS IC) – formerly the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) and the Standing Interpretations Committee (SIC) – that were mandatory for the 2023 financial year have been taken into consideration. Furthermore, all disclosure and explanation requirements under German law above and beyond the provisions of the IASB have been fulfilled.
Under IAS 34, the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are intended to be an update of the most recent annual financial statements. They therefore do not contain all of the information and disclosures required for consolidated financial statements but rather concentrate on new activities, events and circumstances. The aim is to not repeat information that has already been reported. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of DEMIRE AG as at 30 September 2023 should therefore be viewed in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2022.
The euro (EUR) is the reporting currency of DEMIRE AG's condensed interim consolidated financial statements. Unless otherwise stated, all amounts are expressed in thousands of euros (EUR thousand). For computational reasons, rounding differences of ± one unit (EUR, %, etc.) may occur in the information presented in these financial statements. The consolidated statement of income has been prepared according to the cost-of-sales method.

There were no changes in the scope of consolidation in the 2023 reporting period.

Rental revenue in the interim reporting period was generated exclusively from the rental of commercial property and is free from seasonal effects.
At EUR 45,343 thousand (9M 2022: EUR 47,682 thousand), the result from the rental of real estate is below the previous year's level due to the disposal of sold properties as well as an increased vacancy rate, particularly in the properties in Düsseldorf and Celle. Rental income remained stable at EUR 59,885 thousand (9M 2022: EUR 59,910 thousand) despite the sales and the increase in vacant space. This is mainly due to the enforcement of contractually agreed indexations as a result of the increase in the consumer price index. The increase in non-allocable operating expenses to EUR –7,285 thousand (9M 2022: EUR –6,730 thousand) is mainly due to a provision of EUR –550 thousand as a result of a legal dispute with a service provider.
Of the operating expenses, an amount of EUR –25,236 thousand (9M 2022: EUR –28,152 thousand) is generally allocable and can be charged to tenants. In addition to the disposal of properties sold in the previous period as well as in the current reporting year, the decrease results from a fall in energy costs compared to the previous period. The "December aid" package from the Federal Government, which led to the reimbursement of energy costs from the previous year at the beginning of the reporting period, reduced expenses here. The costs of the previous period also included a one-off effect from transferring costs to a tenant. The decrease in non-allocable expenses is also shown in the decrease in income from the allocation of utility and service charges.
Profit/loss from the sale of property and property companies amounts to EUR –12,912 thousand as at 30 September 2023 (9M 2022: EUR 1,053 thousand) and includes – in addition to various incidental costs incurred in connection with disposals – valuation losses resulting from the disposal of properties.
No revaluation of investment properties had been performed as at the 30 September 2023 reporting date. However, several properties that were in an advanced stage of a sales process as at the balance sheet date have been reclassified as held for sale and revalued in accordance with IFRS 5. This resulted in a valuation loss on the sale portfolio of EUR –25,273 thousand (9M 2022: EUR 0 thousand).
Due to the current economic conditions and the resulting valuation parameters (in particular the increased discount rates), there were devaluations across the portfolio in the middle of the 2023 financial year. The largest individual devaluations resulting from a valuation as at 30 June 2023 are attributable to the Bredeney office park (Essen) and Bonn. The devaluation of the property in Essen was mainly due to increased conversion costs. Negotiations are still being made in Bonn on the terms of the rental agreement. No revaluation was carried out in the comparative period.

Impairments on receivables amounted to EUR –1,604 thousand in the reporting period (9M 2022: EUR –350 thousand). The low impairment loss in the previous period was due to the offsetting of income from the reversal of value adjustments on receivables. The higher impairments in the reporting period resulted mainly from expected credit losses from loans to the joint venture JV Theodor-Heuss-Allee GmbH in the amount of EUR –156 thousand as well as a loan to RFR in the amount of EUR –371 thousand.
In addition, impairments in the amount of EUR –244 thousand were made on receivables from the former tenant HC Bowling in Stralsund which is currently in insolvency proceedings. The remaining impairments on receivables in the amount of EUR –833 thousand are distributed among different tenants in DEMIRE's entire property portfolio and result from the flat-rate individual value adjustments made on the basis of the age structure of the receivables.

938 | 1,421 |
| Minority interests | –882 | –3,488 |
| Financial result | 7,095 | –12,927 |
The increase in financial income compared to the previous year is mainly due to the partial repurchase of the 2019/2024 corporate bond at a price below the nominal value and the resulting income of EUR 15,683 thousand.
Other significant components of the financial income result from the granting of loans to the joint venture JV Theodor-Heuss-Allee GmbH in the amount of EUR 782 thousand and its shareholder RFR 5 Immobilien GmbH in the amount of EUR 2,417 thousand.
Financial expenses recorded a decrease of EUR 1,206 thousand compared to the previous year, which can be attributed to the repurchase of company shares.
The result from companies accounted for using the equity method of EUR 938 thousand (9M 2022: EUR 1,421 thousand) relates to the gains on investments in the reporting period in JV Theodor-Heuss-Allee GmbH, Frankfurt am Main.
The profit shares of minority shareholders in the amount of EUR –882 thousand (9M 2022: EUR –3,488 thousand) are profit shares of the minority shareholders of the subsidiaries of Fair Value REIT-AG, which are recognised as debt according to IAS 32.

1. Investment properties and non-current assets held for sale
Investment property is accounted for at fair value. This developed as follows during the interim reporting period:
| in EUR thousand | Office | Retail | Logistics | Other | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fair value at the beginning of the 2023 financial year | 821,356 | 342,176 | 0 | 67,540 | 1,231,072 |
| Additions of properties | 4,979 | 2,526 | 0 | 275 | 7,780 |
| Disposals | –87,000 | –1,480 | 0 | 0 | –88,480 |
| Reclassifications to non-current assets held for sale | –140,246 | –29,830 | 0 | 0 | –170,076 |
| Unrealised losses from fair value measurement | –44,969 | –12,536 | 0 | –2,174 | –59,680 |
| Fair value as at 30/09/2023 | 554,120 | 300,856 | 0 | 65,641 | 920,616 |
The additions to investment property totalling EUR 7,780 thousand consist entirely of capitalisations for current investments.
The fair value measurement of investment property is allocated to Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy in accordance with IFRS 13. DEMIRE determines fair values within the framework of IAS 40 accounting. No revaluation of investment properties was performed as at the 30 September 2023 reporting date. The valuation loss of EUR 59,680 thousand as at the reporting date results from the revaluation of the properties as at 30 June 2023.
The reclassification of properties held for sale relates to several properties for which it is assumed (in accordance with IFRS 5) that a sale will be completed within one year. This includes the LogPark logistics property in Leipzig.
Subscribed capital amounted to EUR 107,777 thousand (31 December 2022: EUR 107,777 thousand). This was EUR 105,513 thousand after the deduction of treasury shares (31 December 2022: EUR 105,513 thousand).

| Other financial liabilities | 299,395 | 281,004 | |
| Total | 798,395 | 831,004 |
The difference between the carrying amounts of financial liabilities and their nominal values is due to the subsequent measurement of financial liabilities at amortised cost using the effective interest method in accordance with IFRS 9.
With the exception of the loan from IC Fonds & Co. Gewerbeobjekte Deutschland 15. KG, all of the Group's borrowings bear fixed interest. The nominal interest rate of the 2019/2024 corporate bond is 1.875% p.a. Other financial liabilities include bank liabilities with a weighted average nominal interest rate of 1.52% p.a. as at 30 September 2023 (31 December 2022: 1.26% p.a.). The average nominal interest rate on debt across all financial liabilities was 1.74% p.a. as at 30 September 2023 (31 December 2022: 1.67% p.a.).

3. Risk report
Please refer to the disclosures made in the risk report in the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2022 for information on the risks to future business performance. In addition to the opportunities and risks recorded as at 31 December 2022, the current financial year has largely been dominated by high inflation, in particular higher interest rates and the war in Ukraine. Furthermore, the willingness to finance has fallen sharply, both in the banking and capital markets, and the transaction markets continue to record declining transaction volumes and falling prices. All of these factors create a high degree of uncertainty and a clouding of prospects in the economic environment, but this has not yet had a material impact on DEMIRE's key performance indicators. Both rental payments and funds from operations (after taxes, before minority interests) are in line with our expectations. Nevertheless, DEMIRE's Executive Board is closely monitoring whether and how the economic environment is changing and may possibly have a negative impact on the performance of the portfolio. The risks are reviewed on a continual basis as part of a structured process. From today's perspective, there are no discernible risks that could jeopardise the Company.
The 2019/2024 bond with a nominal value of EUR 499 million maturing in October 2024 has become a current liability as at the publication date of this report. In this context, the Company is looking intensively into the refinancing of the bond and is already in talks with a group of bondholders or their advisers about this.
For a general overview of the risks, please refer to the report on risks and opportunities.
As at the reporting date, there were no financial obligations stemming from purchase agreements for properties and property companies which are not yet due.
Contractual obligations for modification and expansion measures as well as maintenance and modernisation obligations for the properties totalled EUR 135,305 thousand as at 30 September 2023 (31 December 2022: EUR 113,132 thousand). These obligations are fixed in terms of their scope. The increase mainly results from contractual obligations for construction work on the property in Essen (see comments on this in the 2022 annual report), which had already been taken into account in the valuation of the property.
Purchase order commitments for maintenance and modernisation measures, as well as modification and expansion measures, totalled EUR 9,182 thousand as at the interim reporting date (31 December 2022: EUR 5,348 thousand).
As at 30 September 2023, unused credit lines in the amount of EUR 6,000 thousand (31 December 2022: EUR 0 thousand) were available.
