Half-year Results January to June 2022

Deutsche Wohnen: Stable Performance in the First Half 2022

• FFO I of €273.2 million (€0.69 per share)
• Adj. NAV increased to €22,804.4 million (€57.45 per share)
• Stable outlook and guidance confirmed

Berlin, August 5, 2022. Deutsche Wohnen SE delivered a stable operating performance in the first half-year 2022. The portfolio volume was ca. 15,000 apartments smaller compared to the prior-year period (primarily as a result of the disposal to the City of Berlin). Accounting for this volume effect, Deutsche Wohnen looks back on a successful first six months.

Olaf Weber, CFO of Deutsche Wohnen commented: “Deutsche Wohnen continued its successful development in the first half-year. The key metrics are in line with our expectations. The value growth in our portfolio is also the result of our investments in the quality of our assets. Against the background of our performance during the first six months we confirm our guidance for the current financial year.”

The segment revenue from Residential Property Management was €598.1 million (-5.1%), which was particularly driven by a 9.5% smaller residential portfolio. The in-place rent per square meter was €7.42. The vacancy rate remained at a very low level of 1.8%.

Other relevant KPIs also saw a stable development. The FFO I was €273.2 million, which was 6.2% lower than in H1 2021. On a per-share basis, the FFO 1 came to €0.69 € compared to €0.85 in the prior-year period. This was mainly attributable to the higher number of shares following the convertible bonds conversion in the context of the business combination with Vonovia. The adjusted NAV (formerly EPRA NTA) grew by 5.6% since year-end 2021 to €22,804.4 million (€57.45 per share). This increase was largely driven by the €928.1 million gain from the fair value measurement of investment properties. The LTV was 27.9%.
