- Guidance on 2019 Rental Income specified to the upper end of EUR 80,5-82,5m

Langen, 20 December 2019 - Following a further acceleration of the positive business development, the Board of Management of DEMIRE Deutsche Mittelstand Real Estate AG (ISIN: DE000A0XFSF0) has again raised the FFO guidance for the 2019 financial year. Especially the earnings are expected to increase stronger than expected. This is driven by lower than expected operating expenses to generate rental income, lower SG&A costs and lower financing costs.

The guidance for the 2019 FFO I (after taxes, before minorities) has been increased from EUR 30-32m to EUR 33-34.5m. The guidance for 2019 rental income has been specified to the upper end of the guidance from EUR 80.5-82.5m.

The publication of the 2019 annual report is scheduled for 18 March 2020.
