DIC Asset AG — Interim / Quarterly Report 2020

May 4, 2020

DEAR SHAREHOLDERS,

The Q1 report we are presenting to you today shows more than just robust earnings for the first quarter of the 2020 financial year. More importantly in this unusual situation where stakeholders are being confronted with changing health and economic policy bulletins from many sides on a daily basis, it demonstrates one thing: the steps we undertook last year are now proving to be of fundamental and lasting value. Even in COVID-19 times, DIC Asset AG is in good shape thanks to its highly diversified real estate investment and management platform. The figures we are reporting as at the end of the first quarter clearly proof this fact:

• n Our assets under management rose to EUR 8.4 billion, an increase of 50% compared with the prior-year period and a rise of 11% on the end of 2019. The increase is essentially due to the growth of the Institutional Business (AuM up from EUR 3.9 billion to EUR 6.5 billion year-on-year). This means we can count on generating management fees on a much broader property and customer base than before.
• n Our transaction business started the first quarter on a very strong footing with a transaction volume of EUR 327 million. We used our structuring expertise and our long-standing relationships with investors to execute several projects in our Institutional Business.
• n Our teams have already been highly active in the rental business, also with early contract renewals. At EUR 5.0 million, our letting performance in Q1 was in line with forecasts, as expected. We did our homework and therefore have a lease expiry volume of just 2.4% in the 2020 financial year.
• n Thanks to our reinforced Institutional Business, our management fees more than doubled compared with the prior-year quarter, rising from EUR 9.2 million to EUR 20.4 million.
• n We increased our FFO by as much as 55% to EUR 26.4 million.

A key insight for us and our shareholders is that even under the adverse conditions in the market our business model enables us to deliver positive results. The current challenges and uncertainties underscore the importance of the excellent and dependable, profitable interplay between our competencies and resources on our diversified platform. We specifically expanded our report to give you an in-depth assessment of the effects of COVID-19 on our company as things stand today. We lost no time in entering into dialogue with tenants affected in particular by the pandemic and are very happy with the temporary agreements reached. DIC Asset AG has a highly capable team that is forward-looking in every situation, and we would like to thank them for this! They are essential to the quality of our management platform.

Thanks to our strong two-pillar business model we are well prepared for success even in the current, much more difficult environment. We are reiterating our dividend proposal of 66 cents per share, and based on our current profitability we expect FFO to be sustained at the previous year's high level of EUR 94–96 million. Our medium-term growth targets remain in place – we are well positioned and highly motivated to translate the trust our shareholders place in us into sustained dynamic performance.

INSTITUTIONAL BUSINESS SEGMENT

Real estate management fees more than doubled

AM/PM/DEV Fees

SHARE OF THE PROFIT OF ASSOCIATES

in EUR million

• n At EUR 20.4 million, real estate management fees from the Institutional Business more than doubled year-on-year, with both recurring and transaction-related management fees showing a significant increase (Q1 2019: EUR 9.2 million), driven, among others, by ongoing management of properties newly acquired in 2019, such as the Stadhaus in Cologne, the Eurotheum in Frankfurt, the Pressehaus in Berlin and the Helio in Augsburg
• n Transaction and performance fees, i.e. fees for acquisitions and disposals and the setup of investment products as well as for exceeding defined IRR hurdles, significantly increased yearon-year to EUR 13.6 million (Q1 2019: EUR 5.7 million), thereof EUR 8.4 million from acquisitions and EUR 5.2 million from sales
• n Fees for asset and property management and development were increased to EUR 6.8 million (Q1 2019: EUR 3.5 million) due to the successful growth of assets under management and extensive property acquisitions
• n In addition to management fees, we also generate share of the profit of associates from our equity investments in investment products in the Institutional Business. These amounted to EUR 2.7 million in the first quarter (Q1 2019: EUR 2.4 million)

• Our successful asset and property management platform was able to grow our like-for-like rents by 0.8 % based on rent increases and new leases. In addition, the acquisitions made in the previous year also helped us to increase our gross rental income by 6 % year-on-year to EUR 26.0 million (Q1 2019: EUR 24.5 million)
• Following the expansion of our Institutional Business segment last year, we more than doubled real estate management fees year-on-year to EUR 20.4 million in the first quarter of 2020 (Q1 2019: EUR 9.2 million). Both asset and property management and development fees (EUR 6.8 million, +94 %) as well as transaction and performance fees (EUR 13.6 million, +138 %) rose significantly. One of the factors contributing to this increase was the Frankfurter Strasse property in Wiesbaden, which was sold in Q1 following successful repositioning
• Triggered by the acquisition-based growth of the Institutional Business segment in June 2019, operating expenses rose by 64 % year-on-year to EUR 12.1 million (Q1 2019: EUR 7.4 million)
• The improved net interest result reflects the effects of repaying the bond carrying interest of 4.625% p.a. in the amount of EUR 175 million in Q3 2019 and issuing promissory notes totalling EUR 180 million at an average coupon of 1.55 % p.a. at the end of last year. Overall, the net interest result improved to EUR -7.1 million year-on-year (Q1 2019: EUR -8.6 million)
• Profit for the period rose by a significant 75 % to EUR 16.1 million (Q1 2019: EUR 9.2 million), mainly due to the increase in real estate management fees

• n FFO rose by 55 % to EUR 26.4 million, mainly as a result of significantly higher real estate management fees generated by the growing third-party asset management services offered via the real estate platform, higher net rental income and an improved net interest result. The increase in operating expenses driven by the acquisition of GEG had an offsetting effect
• n FFO per share rose by 42 % to EUR 0.34 (restated to 77.4 million shares pursuant to IFRS; 31 March 2019: EUR 0.24 based on 70.5 million shares) despite the 6.9 million rise in the average number of shares triggered by the capital increase implemented in January 2020

n The Commercial Portfolio's contribution of EUR 13.2 million was up 15 % yearon-year, due to higher net rental income triggered by like-for-like growth of 0.8 % and acquisitions made in the previous year. The 6 % improvement in the net interest result also contributed to the significant increase in FFO

n The contribution to earnings made by the Institutional Business in the first quarter also reflects the acquisition-based growth of the management platform, which was not included in the prior-year period. As a result, real estate management fees more than doubled to EUR 20.4 million. The acquisition-based growth of the Institutional Business segment also increased operating expenses to EUR 8.6 million. Overall, the segment generated FFO of EUR 13.2 million

• n Our dynamic performance attitude is also reflected in the balance sheet at the end of the first quarter of 2020. We were one of the first companies in Germany this year to use an accelerated bookbuilding in order to increase our equity by 10 %. We placed a total of 6,857,774 new shares at an issue price of 16 euros, which was marginally below the stock market price. This generated gross issue proceeds of around EUR 110 million, which strengthened our equity base (). The reported equity ratio rose from 36.5 % to 38.7 %. ()
• n In late February, the Infinity Office project development in Düsseldorf, which we secured in 2018 via a forward deal and monitored until completion over the construction period, was added. After the completion and letting of the Infinity Office we have structured a club deal for two renowned institutional investors in the second quarter 2020 and hence manage the property in the Institutional Business segment. As of the 31 March 2020 balance sheet date, we show the property under current assets as "non-current assets held for sale" () and the corresponding liabilities as "liabilities related to non-current assets held for sale" ().
• n Overall, total assets () thus increased by EUR 141.1 million compared with the end of 2019

COVID-19 – IMPACT ON REAL ESTATE MARKET & DIC ASSET

DIC Asset well-equipped for the coronavirus pandemic with high profitability and financial strength

Bundestag/Bundesrat have passed the Act to Mitigate the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic (Gesetz zur Abmilderung der Folgen der CO-VID-19-Pandemie):

• n The law indirectly allows for a suspension of rents by the tenant for 3 months without negative consequences, if tenants can prove that they are unable to pay their rent due to the "effects of the COVID-19 pandemic". Landlords cannot terminate lease agreements due to delayed payments in April, May and June 2020.
• n Outstanding rent payments must be paid in arrears under the new legislation, within a maximum period of 24 months.

The road to normality – Federal Government announces first stage of lockdown easing (15 April 2020)

n Since 20 April 2020, businesses with up to 800 sqm of retail space (with variations by Federal state) can reopen; however, they must ensure that appropriate hygiene concepts are in place.

COVID-19 – IMPACT ON REAL ESTATE MARKET & DIC ASSET

DIC Asset well-equipped for the coronavirus pandemic with high profitability and financial strength

DIC's approach: "Getting through the COVID-19 pandemic together"

• n Active dialogue with more than 300 tenants directly affected by the shutdown, primarily from the retail and hotel sectors in both segments
• n Finding economically sustainable individual solutions for both partners, i.e. temporary waiving of rents for a prolongation of the rental contract
• n Gradual opening of businesses at the moment enables revenues again
• n In individual cases, possible concepts for subsequent use are developed as a precaution

Impact on DIC Asset's results of operations

• n Possible effects are reflected in the updated outlook with today's knowledge and anticipated assumptions
• n Reduction of acquisition volume 2020 for both segments
• n Adjustment of rental contracts –> reduction of net rental income and management fees
• n Cash flow effect in April of around EUR 1.3 million

EXPECTED DEVELOPMENT IN FINANCIAL YEAR 2020

FFO at a high prior-year level

Expected impacts in Q2–Q4 2020 already reflected in new guidance

n Updated forecast published on 3 April 2020

n Q2 2020 trend:

• Slight decline in gross rental income due to adjustments of the rental contracts and reduced acquisition target vs. original forecast
• Real estate management fees at the high level of the first quarter due to factors including completed Infinity club deal with non-recurring and recurring management fees
• Stable share of the profit of associates

n H2 2020 trend:
