1) New leases refer to letting of vacant space. This category does not include lease renewals, prolongations, or exercised renewal options.

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, letting activities (as measured by new leases and lease extensions) were at a good level.

A substantial impact on the positive development of the new leases was a new lease in Frankfurt, Platz der Einheit 1 (KASTOR TOWER). The lease for approximately 2,300 m² of office and ancillary space is expected to start on July 1, 2017, has a lease term of five years, and will generate an annual rent of EUR 0.5 million.

Furthermore, alstria signed a new lease in Hamburg, Bieberhaus, for approximately 5,900 m² of office and ancillary space. The ten-year lease will start on May 1, 2018, and generates an annual rental income of EUR 1.3 million.

2. KEY FIGURES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF EARNING POSITION

Rental revenues amounted to EUR 45.4 million in the first quarter of 2017 and thus decreased by EUR 5.7 million compared to the revenues in the first quarter of the previous year (EUR 51.1 million). The decrease mainly results from the disposal of assets in 2016. As a result, net rental income of the Group decreased by EUR 5.0 million to EUR 40.2 million.

The consolidated net result amounted to EUR 30.9 million in the reporting period and was higher than the consolidated net result of the first quarter of 2016 (EUR 14.6 million). Lower financial expenses as well as an improved net loss from fair value adjustments on financial derivatives contributed substantially to the increase of the consolidated net result of the Group.

Funds from operations amounted to EUR 29.1 million (of which EUR 1.1 million is attributable to minorities) and were thus EUR 0.7 million lower than funds from operations in the previous year's reporting period (EUR 29.8 million). The main reason for the decrease in FFO is the reduced net rental income due to the disposal of assets in 2016. This was partially offset by a reduction of financing costs in an amount of approximately EUR 4.0 million.

1) This is noncash income or expenses plus nonrecurring effects. The main effect in the first quarter of 2016 were costs related to the takeover of alstria office Prime (EUR 1,180 k). The main effects in the first quarter of 2017 were the valuation of the limited partner capital (EUR 1,759 k) as well as costs related to the takeover of alstria office Prime (EUR 931 k).

2) (A)FFO is not a measure of operating performance or liquidity under generally accepted accounting principles, in particular IFRS, and it should not be considered an alternative to the Company's income or cash-flow measures as determined in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, there is no standard definition for (A)FFO. Thus, alstria's (A)FFO values and the measures with similar names presented by other companies may not be comparable.

3) AFFO is equal to FFO after adjustments are made for capital expenditures used to maintain the quality of the underlying investment portfolio and expenses for lease-ups.
