Dear Shareholders, There are probably few better words to describe the atmosphere over the past few months than "dynamic". Our everyday lives are full of hustle and bustle once more. People are meeting up in person again and returning to their offices. Traffic fills the streets, and cities are full of excitement as they prepare to welcome back wellheeled Christmas shoppers in large numbers. Yet the pandemic remains a major issue around the world and policy-makers debate how to move forward.
Dynamic certainly describes the pace of our lives these days. And this dynamic spirit is something we are well equipped to handle. After all, it is our unique ability to shape our business and create value for all our stakeholders – investors, tenants and shareholders alike – with dynamic performance.
We did not abandon our principle of dynamic performance even during the most challenging stages of the pandemic, acting and investing decisively and confidently throughout. This has allowed us to leverage the current upturn in the economy and use it to expand our business. There is one stock exchange metric in particular that is key to the value of our company: adjusted net asset value. This figure represents the intrinsic value of each DIC share and was EUR 22.02 as at 30 September 2021. For more details, please turn to page 20 of this quarterly statement.
I am convinced that the strength of our company is down to three key factors.
Firstly, we are creative! Our clients' rental space requirements have changed during the pandemic. For example, they want their offices to offer more space, flexible working environments and a modern atmosphere that their teams are eager to return to. Our tenants know they can rely on our creativity to meet these challenges. We have developed models for state-of-the-art office environments and can put these into practice within our portfolio. This means we are not just a landlord, but can also serve as creative consultants and companions to our clients in these changing times.
This creativity is delivering measurable success. We increased rental income by 4% on a like-for-like basis compared to the previous year, and reduced the EPRA vacancy rate in the Commercial Portfolio by 60 basis points. What's more, our management fees in the Institutional Business have risen by around 23% in the last 12 months.
Secondly, we are fast! Over the past 12 months, we have been particularly fast in committing to the logistics sector and significantly expanding our portfolio in this asset class. After integrating RLI Investors at the start of the year, we wasted no time in fully placing a new logistics property fund with institutional investors. And thanks to our warehousing activities and excellent network within the market, we were soon able to "deliver" attractive logistics properties at short notice.
We agreed several large-scale leases of logistics space to well-known tenants, including early-stage leases for logistics sites currently under construction. Our rapid response has enabled us to get ahead of the curve in logistics and set the pace in this asset class with our acquisitions. We have also made full use of the expertise gained by acquiring RLI Investors as planned.
Thirdly, we are reliable! This means our clients can depend on us – and they are not the only ones. Society in and for which we work can also count on us thanks to the commitment we have made to sustainability across our entire business. One excellent example of this is our Green Bond, which was created exclusively to fund green buildings. We quickly exceeded our original target volume for this bond and soon attracted EUR 400 million in subscriptions from investors.
By doing this, we are demonstrating that our natural commitment to sustainability can also create decisive value for all of our shareholders. We are proving that it is possible to combine economy and ecology, and are not only achieving commercial success but also receiving recognition for our efforts. Our "Erfurter Kreuz" logistics property was awarded a DGNB Gold rating by the German Sustainable Building Council.
As you can see, dynamism is what drives us forward. And our dynamic performance is delivering clear successes. That brings us to our figures for the first nine months of the year:
These are our results for the first nine months of the year. As someone who is familiar with our business, you will know that the final flurry of activity at the end of each year is vital and has repeatedly propelled us forward in recent years.
This means that we are about to enter a few more weeks of considerable dynamic performance. The market is liquid and competition is fierce. But we are well connected. We are quick, creative and reliable. Market players know us well and hold us in high regard. With all this in mind, we are confident that we will still be able to conclude a large number of lucrative transactions before the year is out. We are therefore confirming our FFO forecast of EUR 106 to 110 million and are already looking ahead to 2022 with our committed and ambitious growth plans.
