Harry Hyman, chairman, commented: “we intend to continue to carefully review further transactions to maintain this growth momentum over the medium term, while also returning capital to our shareholders“. Zohar Levy, managing director, commented: “We acquired EUR252 million of new properties, improved our debt structure considerably and made significant progress in the development of existing surplus building rights to unlock further inherent value of the portfolio. The German real estate market remains very attractive and our under-rented portfolio contains multiple opportunities for intensive asset management driven improvements over the next few years. We fully intend to continue and capitalise upon these and optimise our portfolio to drive substantial shareholder returns“.
