The Company expects to report its interim results for the six-month period ended 30^thJune 2018 towards the end of September 2018.

Robert Hingley, Chairman of Phoenix Spree Deutschland, commented:

'It is pleasing that, after an exceptionally strong performance in 2017, the Portfolio has registered further like-for-like valuation gains. These gains reflect both the quality of the assets within the Portfolio and the fact that our active asset management strategy has continued to deliver strong rental growth. Following the recent completion of the disposal of our Central and Northern Germany portfolio, at a premium to book value, the Company is now focused on Berlin, where we continue to selectively acquire further assets. Supply-demand and population demographics in the Berlin market remain favourable, and we see potential for further underlying value and rental growth in the second half of the year'
