Property Valuations
Management's assessment of property values revealed that German properties were valued at EUR 84.5 million as of the end of September 2025. This figure marks a decrease from the previous valuation of EUR 91.1 million noted at the end of the last fiscal year. This decrease reflects the ongoing volatility in the real estate market but was anticipated by management.
Investment Property Adjustments
Furthermore, the collective property value associated with the Group's investment properties saw a decline of gross EUR 7.1 million. When accounting for the building improvements undertaken during the period, which amounted to EUR 0.5 million, the net decline was adjusted to EUR 6.6 million. This strategic move towards improving assets showcases an intent to maintain the quality and profitability of their investments.
Equity Position
As of September 30, the company’s equity stood at EUR 57.5 million, translating to an equity ratio of 63.5%. Notably, this is a slip from December 31, 2024, when the equity was recorded at EUR 63.1 million with a slightly higher equity ratio of 64.6%. The decline in equity by EUR 5.6 million throughout the year thus reflects market conditions influencing property valuations, providing context for investors.
