(the "Company") is pleased to publish its FY 2016 results, concluding a highly successful year in which the Company continued to perform profitably, increasing occupancy and rent levels across its portfolio, as well as further expanded the portfolio to 84k units. The net profit in 2016 amounted to EUR653 million, with the operational measure of FFO I at EUR160 million increasing 25% from 2015, following operational improvements alongside new acquisitions made over the year. Capital gains and revaluations amounted to EUR598 million for 2016 capturing the discounted long term value of GCP's efforts in driving forward the operational quality of its portfolio. FFO II amounted to EUR229 million for 2016, a result of EUR69 million disposal gains that reflect a disposal profit margin of 79%, indicating the importance of the Company's deal sourcing capabilities and its ability to pursue various opportunities to improve the assets under its management. As of February 2017, GCP's portfolio generates an annualized rental and operating income run rate of EUR462 million, adjusted EBITDA EUR237 million and FFO I run rate at EUR168 million, translating to an FFO I per share run rate of EUR1.09. EPRA vacancy at 7.8% in February 2017 down from 12.5% as of December 2015 is indicative of the success of the Company in investing funds and efforts in improving the quality and profitability of its portfolio. The Board of Directors has decided to increase the long term dividend policy to a payout ratio of 65% of FFO I per share, starting from the 2016 dividend which will be paid after the AGM around July 2017. The revision of the payout ratio from formerly 50% was made in view of the robust balance sheet of the Company, its strengthened position and mature stage, and the objective to enable our investors to further benefit from our accretive shareholder value creation. The Board's 2016 dividend distribution proposal for the AGM results in EUR0.68 per share, compared to EUR0.25 per share for 2015, reflecting a 172% increase. Systematically improving operations, reducing leverage and maintaining outstanding coverage ratios resulted in improved credit rating As of December 2016 the NAV amounted to EUR2.7bn and EUR17.7 per share, reflecting an increase of 33% from year-end 2015. The EPRA NAV resulted to EUR2.5bn, an increase of 32% from December 2015. EPRA NAV including the equity instrument of perpetual notes amounts to EUR3.2bn at December 2016, an increase of 34%, supported by the issuance of EUR200 million perpetual notes in September 2016. Concluding the financial year, LTV decreased to 34.9% as of December 2016, from 41.9% as of December 2015. The LTV is far clear of the Company's limit of 45% decided upon by the Board of Directors. The strong balance sheet position is further supported by an unencumbered assets level of 56% (EUR2.8 billion) and cash and liquid asset balance of EUR632 million as of December 2016. ICR at 6.2x for 2016 is another result of the modest leverage approach of the Company and its practice of keeping wide financial buffer positions. GCP's conservative financial conduct coupled with steadily strengthening its business position are viewed favorably in the credit rating development of the Company. In November 2016, S&P increased GCP's corporate credit rating to BBB+ (A-2 Short Term) validating the Company's strengthened position within the Business risk profile. Also in November 2016, Moody's changed the rating of GCP's outlook to Baa2 positive. Strengthening the Company's position in the capital markets and providing more visibility GCP announced during the fourth quarter of 2016 its decision to apply for admission to trading of the Company's shares in the Frankfurt Stock Exchange prime standard during 2017. With the FY 2016 publication GCP has implemented EPRA's Best Practice Recommendations including all key financial indicators and has included additional disclosures to increase visibility and crystalize the operational and financial performance. Christian Windfuhr, CEO of Grand City Properties: "GCP has achieved a very successful year in 2016, a result of us systematically guiding our efforts to where we make an impact - identifying the value add aspects in our assets, and applying decisive, confident and professional actions to improve their operations.
