I believe that CG Gruppe, as one of the largest and most innovative German project developers, offers CONSUS substantial operational benefits as a result of its attractive pipeline of around EUR 4.7 billion and the potential for enlarging our portfolio of commercial properties. This means we can offer investors a business model that links stable repeatable cash flows with the additional potential for high returns."

We look forward to a successful, joint future for CONSUS and CG Gruppe. In the future national and international investors will also be able to invest in a large, highly profitable project developer on the German stock market. We are thus filling a gap in the Geman stock exchange listings, a position for which real estate developers in capital markets in the UK and USA already have established a successful tradition." Christoph Gröner, CG Gruppe's CEO: "We are pleased to welcome a strategically important new partner. This is a key milestone for our company and opens up additional perspectives for both our companies on the German real estate and developer market." Press contact: About CONSUS Commercial Property AG CONSUS Commercial Property AG ("CONSUS"), as an opportunity-oriented real estate investor, is dynamically assembling an investment portfolio focusing on office properties. Its value-added approach and its acquisition focus, including special situation properties, create an above-average potential to increase value and profits for CONSUS. The company specialises in properties with market values of between EUR 10 and 25 million and thus operates in an environment with less competition than that for other property sizes. CONSUS believes that the attractive net initial returns that can be realised in the value-added sector of this size category mean that it is well positioned for different market cycles and financing environments. Active asset management ensures that additional value and higher rental income can be realised from the portfolio. The aim of the company is to generate high funds from operations (FFO). In so doing CONSUS uses efficient structures and cooperates with leading partners in the German market when purchasing properties, processing deals and managing each asset.
