Frankfurt am Main, 31. October 2024: Branicks Group AG (“Branicks”), ISIN: DE000A1X3XX4, one of the leading German listed real estate companies, announces the sale of a package of four logistics properties from the existing portfolio of VIB-Vermögen AG, in which Branicks AG holds 69% of all shares, to global real estate investment manager EQT Exeter. The transaction was notarized at the end of October 2024 and is scheduled to close by the end of 2024. The parties have agreed not to disclose the purchase price. The sale is the next step in VIB's diversification strategy with the aim of positioning the company as a balanced portfolio holder of commercial real estate with a focus on logistics and offices in Germany and neighboring countries. At the same time, the sale demonstrates the successful implementation of VIB's value-oriented strategy and is further evidence of the brightening of the transaction market. The properties sold are logistics properties from VIB's Commercial Portfolio with a total rental area of 94,607 m2 and a total annual rent of EUR 6.7 million. Two of the properties are located in Erlangen, the other two in Unterschleißheim and Frankfurt am Main. “The sale of the four logistics properties from VIB's existing portfolio is a further consistent step towards more balance in VIB's asset mix. At the same time, this transaction once again demonstrates the gradually brightening situation on the transaction market, which is increasingly offering opportunities for valuable transactions again,” said Sonja Wärntges, CEO of Branicks Group AG. “The sale of the four logistics properties from VIB's existing portfolio is a further consistent step towards more balance in VIB's asset mix.
