PREOS Global Office Real Estate & Technology AG PURCHASED ESSEN COMMERCIAL PROPERTY BELOW MARKET THEN CLOSED SALE TO SIGNA GROUP FOR 25% NET PROFIT IN 2020 Leipzig, 04.02.2021 - Frederik Mehlitz, CEO of PREOS: "The Essen transaction is a showcase deal for how we add value to our shareholders. Our deep-data based analytics allows us to identify hidden value faster than traditional approaches and we are experienced acquisition specialists". This asset sale highlights the strength of the PREOS Group: sourcing attractive assets at favorable terms, driving the value of such assets as asset manager and ultimately achieving a profitable exit. Our "TA2" commercial property in Essen is an excellent example: In mid-2019, PREOS acquired the asset below market. It immediately launched an asset management program investing approx. € 80m with the goal of reducing the property's full vacancy, and further to enhance its value for resale. PREOS substantially leased up the property in less than one year - anchor tenants now include Galeria Kaufhof, a major German department store chain that uses the asset for its headquarters. The property also includes the headquarters of the Police of the City of Essen, who signed a 30-year long term lease. In December 2020, PREOS successfully closed the Essen property sale with Signa Group, an Austria-based real estate group with assets of 18 billion euros, for an undisclosed purchase price.
