27 November 2024. Aroundtown (‘the Company’ or ‘AT’) announces results for the nine months of 2024 (“9M 2024”), with net rental income of €883 million, slightly down 1% compared to €895 million in 9M 2023. The like-for-like rental growth of 3% was offset by the impact of net disposals in the period. Adjusted EBITDA totaled €758 million in 9M 2024, higher by 1% as compared to €748 million reported in 9M 2023, as the increased operational profitability offset the decline in net rental income. The FFO I amounted to €236 million, or €0.22 per share in the nine months of 2024, lower by 8% and 4% respectively compared to €255 million and €0.23 per share in the nine-month period of 2023 mostly due to the expected higher finance expenses and perpetual notes attribution. With results in-line with expectations, Aroundtown confirms its FY 2024 FFO guidance in the range of €290-€320 million and expects to meet the upper end of the range. FURTHER STRENGTHENED BALANCE SHEET The Company continued its measures to further strengthen the balance sheet through the issuance of €1.15 billion of senior unsecured bonds in July, on top of ca. €325 million of new bank financing signed year-to-date. The strong access to capital has been further supported by the perpetual note exchange and tender offers in April and September 2024, through which €2.6 billion of perpetual notes were issued and a ca. €300 million of nominal perpetual note balance reduction was achieved during the period, resulting in a reduction of perpetual note coupons and supporting the FFO over the long term while also supporting the Company’s credit rating metrics under the S&P’s rating methodology. Proceeds from the bond issuance were used for the redemption and buyback of bonds amounting to €1.15 billion during the period, thereby extending the debt maturity profile. The balance sheet was further supported by signed disposals amounting to ca. €630 million year-to-date, while the Company closed disposals amounting to €440 million in 9M 2024 around book value. As of September 2024 LTV stands at 44%, compared to 43% in December 2023 and 45% in June 2024. The Interim Consolidated Report for 9M 2024 is available on the Company’s website: https://www.aroundtown.de/investor-relations/publications/financial-reports/ For definitions and reconciliations of the Alternative Performance Measures, please see the relevant sections in the pages 40-45 of the Interim Consolidated Report for 9M 2024.
