Important note regarding our guidance:

Referring to the adjustments  due to the at-equity consolidation revenues and EBIT for 2012 had to be restated. The EBT and FFO comparable numbers are unaffected. The 2013 guidance remains unchanged.

In accordance with IAS 31.38 we applied for a voluntary adoption of the equity-method for our jointly-controlled operations. Accidentally we included Stadt-Galerie Passau and Phoenix-Center Hamburg, too. So the comparable numbers of 2012 were not correct until 3rd quarter, which we deeply regret. However, in light of this we readjusted the comparable revenues and EBIT 2012 again for the full year as follows:

The 2012 revenues (€178.2 million instead of €157.1 million as published) include revenues of €21.1 million from the Stadt-Galerie Passau and the Phoenix-Center Hamburg. The same applies to EBIT, which was at €151.6 million (including the contribution of the two centers) in 2012 (previous comparable number: €132.3 million).

Stadt-Galerie Passau and Phoenix-Center Hamburg changed to at-equity because we terminated the voting agreements with co-investors in these two centers on 31.12.2012. A switch to the at-equity method for these two centers is therefore only possible from 1.1.2013 - even if it is less transparent.
