Branicks Group AG: Adjustment of the forecast for the 2025 financial year
 

• Targets for purchase and sales volumes not fully achieved despite continued full pipeline
• Forecast for gross rental income and income from property management slightly adjusted
• Robustly on track operationally and with all financial obligations to be met in 2025
• FFO I after minority interests specified within guidance

Frankfurt am Main, 23 December 2025. Against the backdrop of the ongoing and already well-advanced closing work for the 2025 financial year, the Management Board of Branicks Group AG (‘Branicks’), ISIN: DE000A1X3XX4, has reviewed its forecast for the financial year and adjusted it today. The decisive factor for this forecast adjustment is the business development in the fourth quarter of the current financial year. There are delays in individual transactions planned for this quarter, which are affecting the planned purchase and sale volume, gross rental income and income from property management. FFO I after minority interests is not affected by this.

Adjusted and detailed forecast in detail

• Sales volume of around €453 million, of which around €438 million relates to the Commercial Portfolio segment and around €15 million to the Institutional Business segment (previously: €600-800 million, of which €500-600 million relates to the Commercial Portfolio segment and €100-200 million to the Institutional Business segment)
• Acquisitions for Institutional Business of around €80 million (previously: €100-200 million for Institutional Business)
• Gross rental income of around €135-140 million (previously: €125-135 million)
• Income from property management of around €40–45 million (previously: €45–55 million)
• FFO I after minority interests of around €41–45 million (previously: €40–55 million)

Branicks will publish its 2025 annual report as planned on 29 April 2026.

Sonja Wärntges, CEO of Branicks Group AG, comments: "In the 2025 financial year, which is now coming to an end, Branicks made great progress in financial consolidation and was on track with robust operations. Given that the closing work is already well advanced, we expect to have essentially achieved our guidance for the 2025 financial year, with the exception of the acquisition and disposal targets. Our transactions have developed very satisfactorily in a difficult environment, although there are delays in some of the transactions planned for the fourth quarter of 2025. With the transaction pipeline remaining well filled, we expect to continue the momentum of the past financial year with further timely notarizations."
