CA Immo has reported a solid operating performance for the 2023 business year. The results show, among other things, a significant increase in rental income (+8%) and high income from the sale of non-strategic properties (sales result of €179 million, FFO II +102%), which led to an increase in the operating result (EBITDA) of 115% compared to the previous year´s figure. Although the company had to record a market-driven non-cash revaluation loss of €532 million in 2023, the EBITDA of €322 million offsets a large part of the full-year revaluation loss, resulting in a consolidated net income of €–224.5 million for financial year 2023.

In total, CA Immo generated a consolidated net profit of €61.1 million, which was around 77% below the previous year's figure, primarily due to the non-cash-effective, market-related negative result from revaluation.
