Immofinanz expects a substantial improvement in rental income and the results of operations for the first quarter of 2020. The estimated increases range from 13.0% to 15.0% versus Q1 2019.
The COVID-19 pandemic is expected to result in negative effects of €45.0 million from the valuation of standing investments (which represents approx. 0.85% of investment property at the end of March 2020). This is primarily attributable to the slight increase in market yields, above all in the retail sector. In particular, these valuation results are expected to result in negative earnings for the period.
Immofinanz will announce its first quarter results for 2020 on 27 May 2020 (evening) as planned. A further update on the effects of COVID-19 on the company’s business will also be provided at that time.
