Notes
- 9M 2020 results extraordinarily burdened by EUR 6.5m one-off effects mainly related to bond issue and change of management board
- Operating interim result of EUR 16.9m is a little bit lower as in the comparable period due to temporarily lower sales margins
- Gross margin from sales fell to 21.9% due to higher share of sales via cooperation partners and higher one-time marketing costs
- Increase of total payroll and benefit costs is driven by staff growth and change of the management board
- Increase of net interest expenses include one-off effects from the repayment of the old bond in the amount of EUR 4.1m

OUTLOOK
▪ The short supply and scarcity in the housing sector is reflected in growing demand for residential real estate | |||
Market | |||
environment | ▪ Significant housing shortage and structural demand is causing rising rent and price levels in the target markets | ||
offers | |||
opportunities | ▪ | The low homeownership rate of 45% in Germany, among the lowest in Europe, offers a humongous revenue potential for ACCENTRO given | |
the EUR 30bn private transaction market | |||
▪ Confirmed outlook for FY 2020: slight increase in revenues, EBIT at the same level of the previous year | ||||
▪ February 2020: Successful placement of a EUR 250m bond to further accelerate growth | ||||
Positive | ▪ | Expansion of nationwide sales strength through investments and greater diversification in other markets | ||
Outlook | ||||
▪ The current inventory properties held for sales may allow revenues of almost EUR 700m over the years to come | ||||
▪ Further development of digitalisation in business processes | ||||

This document contains forward-looking statements based on current estimates and assumptions made by the senior management of ACCENTRO. Forward-looking statements are characterised by the use of words such as "expect," "intend," "plan," "predict," "assume," "believe," "estimate," "anticipate" and similar forward-looking phrases. Such statements are not to be understood as guarantee that predictions of this sort will prove to be correct. In particular, any statements on acquisitions presuppose the actual signing of the necessary contracts or the successful procurement of the necessary equity and debt capital. The future development and actual results achieved by ACCENTRO and its affiliates are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and may therefore differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Many of these factors are beyond ACCENTRO's control and cannot be accurately appraised in advance, including the future economic environment or the actions of competitors and other market players. ACCENTRO does not intend to update its forward-looking statements. Neither ACCENTRO nor any of its respective directors, officers, employees, advisors, or any other person is under any obligation to update or revise any forward- looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak of the date of this document. Statements contained in this document regarding past trends or events should not be taken as a representation that such trends or events will continue in the future. No obligation is assumed to update any forward-looking statements.
This document contains certain financial measures (including forward-looking measures) that are not calculated in accordance with IFRS and are therefore considered "non-IFRS financial measures". Such non-IFRS financial measures used by ACCENTRO are presented to enhance an understanding of ACCENTRO's results of operations, financial position or cash flows calculated in accordance with IFRS, but not to replace such financial information. A number of these non-IFRS financial measures are also commonly used by securities analysts, credit rating agencies and investors to evaluate and compare the periodic and future operating performance and value of other companies with which ACCENTRO competes. These non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered in isolation as a measure of ACCENTRO's profitability or liquidity, and should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net income and the other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with IFRS. In particular, there are material limitations associated with the use of non-IFRS financial measures, including the limitations inherent in determination of each of the relevant adjustments. The non-IFRS financial measures used by ACCENTRO may differ from, and not be comparable to, similarly-titled measures used by other companies. Certain numerical data, financial information and market data (including percentages) in this document have been rounded according to established commercial standards. Furthermore, in tables and charts, these rounded figures may not add up exactly to the totals contained in the respective tables and charts.
Accordingly, neither ACCENTRO nor any of its directors, officers, employees or advisors, nor any other person makes any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to, and accordingly no reliance should be placed on, the fairness, accuracy or completeness of the information contained in the document or of the views given or implied.
