/ Key word(s): Half Year Results
PATRIZIA reports strong H1 2020 results and confirms its FY 2020 guidance
Augsburg, 5 August 2020. PATRIZIA AG, a leading partner for global real assets, recorded an operating income of EUR 74.1m in H1 2020. This compares to EUR 79.0m operating income in the same period last year, when performance fees had an extraordinarily positive impact on bottom line results. Total service fee income - which combines management, transaction and performance fees - stood at EUR 171.0m in H1 2020, virtually unchanged to EUR 174.2m in H1 2019. At the same time, clients entrusted PATRIZIA with new equity of EUR 0.6bn, an increase of 30.8% Wolfgang Egger, CEO of PATRIZIA AG, said: "The Covid-19 pandemic led to lower overall investment and transaction activity in the real assets markets. However, PATRIZIA managed these exceptional circumstances well and has once again proved to be a stable and reliable business partner. Throughout the second quarter of 2020 PATRIZIA was able to successfully close on several high quality property acquisitions and disposals for its institutional, (semi-)professional and private investors and we are confident that we will emerge even stronger from this crisis." Management fees stood at EUR 96.1m in H1 2020, slightly below the EUR 97.1m reported in the comparable period last year, which was however positively impacted by aperiodic effects of EUR 3.9m. Like for like management fees grew positively y-o-y by 3.1%. Transaction fees increased 67.0% y-o-y, from EUR 12.1m to EUR 20.3m, driven by continued activity for PATRIZIA's global clients. Performance fees of EUR 54.6m in H1 2020 remained a stable contributor to the overall financial results, although below last year's extraordinarily high levels of EUR 64.9m in H1 2019. The above-average investment performance achieved for clients is expected to generate further performance fees during the second half of 2020. Karim Bohn, CFO of PATRIZIA AG, said: "PATRIZIA is successfully weathering the Covid-19 pandemic thanks to its resilient business model, rock-solid balance sheet and strong cash position. Our H1 2020 financial results are a solid base from which to achieve our guidance range of EUR 100.0m - 140.0m for FY 2020. The market fundamentals for our business model remain healthy, such as the long-term interest rate environment and increasing capital allocations to real assets by pension funds and insurance companies over the next years."
