Key operating figures and earnings trend

The Group's net actual rent ('net cold rent') increased by 3.9% year-on-year in the first half of 2021. Based on comparable portfolios (like-for-like), rental growth was 1.6% in the last twelve months to 30 June 2021. Vacancy in the Group's residential units declined slightly to 5.8% in Q2 2021, from 5.9% in March 2021 and 5.3% at the beginning of the year.

FFO I (funds from operations excluding net income from sales), which is still calculated solely based on the rental business in Germany, reached EUR 45.9m in Q2 2021, compared to EUR 45.6m in Q1 2021 and EUR 44.5m in Q2 2020. Looking at the entire first half of 2021, FFO I amounted to EUR 91.5m, compared to EUR 86.5m in the same period of the previous year, which corresponds to an increase of 5.8%.

As in previous years, TAG's real estate portfolio was completely revalued as at 30 June 2021. The total valuation gain of EUR 310.4m (of which EUR 305.6m relates to the portfolio in Germany and EUR 4.8m to the portfolio in Poland, which is still being developed) corresponds to a valuation uplift of 5.2% in the first half of 2021, following 3.3% and 2.9% in H1 and H2 2020, respectively. In this respect, the high demand for affordable yet attractive homes, which has now also been evident for many years in 'B locations' and in East Germany, is leading to a significant increase in value for the real estate portfolio. As a result, TAG's portfolio is now valued at around EUR 1,150 per sqm, with gross initial yield at 5.5%.

EPRA NTA (net tangible assets) increased to EUR 23.69 from EUR 21.95 at 31 December 2020, even after the dividend payment of EUR 0.88 per share made in May 2021. The loan-to-value (LTV) ratio was 44.1% as at 30 June 2021, down once again compared to year-end 2020 (45.1%).

Overall, TAG generated consolidated net profit of EUR 324.1m in the first six months of 2021, compared to EUR 212.8m in the same period of the previous year. In addition to the good operating performance, this was due in particular to the EUR 138.0m year-on-year increase in the valuation result.

Further growth of the portfolio in Poland

The business performance in Poland was also very positive. In the first half of 2021, net income from sales increased to EUR 6.7m, from EUR -0.4m in the same period of the previous year. The total result from operations in Poland, which currently nearly completely includes sales transactions and is included in the Group's FFO II, amounted to EUR 4.5m in H1 2021 after EUR -0.8m in H1 2020.

The contractually secured pipeline for the construction of residential units comprises approximately 11,900 units as of the reporting date. Of this total, around 8,200 residential units are earmarked for letting, while approx. 3,700 are intended for sale. With the acquisition of land in Gdansk in Q2 2021, TAG established its fourth location in Poland after Wroclaw, Poznan and Lodz. In June 2021, business activities in Poland reached another milestone with the first tenants moving into three new building projects in Wroclaw. At the end of July 2021, almost 400 units were in the letting process. All projects were completed on schedule and within budget.

Improved ESG rating from Sustainalytics

At the beginning of August 2021, TAG's sustainability activities were recognised by the rating agency Sustainalytics, which ranked it in the best possible category ('negligible ESG risk', with a score of 9.9 after 12.6 previously). This places TAG among the top 3% of all real-estate companies and the top 1% of all companies worldwide.

"Our rental business in Germany remains very stable despite the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and is seeing continuous increases in FFO," says Martin Thiel, CFO of TAG. "The good valuation result of the first half of 2021 shows a rise in demand for residential properties yet again, including in the B locations we prefer, and in East Germany. In Poland, we are celebrating increased sales results as well as the move-in of the first tenants into our recently completed new building projects. With the 8,000 to 10,000 rental units planned in Poland by the end of 2025 and the gross initial yields of 7-8% achievable there, we will ensure substantial and profitable external growth for the next years."
