Robert Hingley, Chairman of Phoenix Spree Deutschland,
commented:
"I am delighted to announce today's results, which demonstrate
further growth in rents and property values resulting in an EPRA
NAV per share total return of 7.8% for the half year. The Company
continues to take advantage of the strong reversionary rental
potential that exists within the Company's portfolio, including the
opportunity to create value through the sale of apartment blocks as
condominiums. German residential property remains an attractive
asset class, particularly in Berlin, and the Company is well placed
to grow its portfolio in order to benefit from strong market
fundamentals"

Chairman's Statement
The Company has built on the success of 2015 to produce another
strong set of results. The first half of 2016 saw further growth in
rents and property values, resulting in an EPRA NAV per share total
return of 7.8% for the half year. This puts the Company well on
track to achieve its target annual return per share of 8-10%.
The Company's strategy is to invest in German real estate,
particularly residential property in Berlin, and to exploit its
reversionary potential. In the first half, this was achieved
through the re-letting of apartments at significant premiums to
passing rents, and through the sale of individual apartments
(condominiums) at values materially higher than for rental
properties within the portfolio.
In March 2016, the Company successfully completed a GBP38
million share placing, the proceeds of which are being used to fund
further property acquisitions. Since listing on the London Stock
Exchange in June 2015, the Company has acquired more than EUR75
million of Berlin residential property. Further transactions are
expected before the year end, and Berlin now represents over 70% of
the portfolio by value.
Market conditions remain favourable, particularly in Berlin,
with evidence of growing demand from investors and owner-occupiers,
a limited supply of new-build property and interest rates recently
reaching all-time lows. The Board remains confident that the
Company is well placed to take advantage of these positive
conditions and provide capital growth and dividend income to its
investors. The Board is pleased to declare a dividend of 1.6p
(EUR1.92 Euro cents) per share for the first half of the year, an
increase of 23% over 2015.

Like-for-like portfolio value increase of 9.8%
As at 30 June 2016, the portfolio was valued at EUR329.8 million
(31 December 2015: EUR282.8 million) by Jones Lang LaSalle GmbH,
the Company's external property valuer. This represents an increase
of 16.7% over the six-month period, equating to an average value
per square metre of EUR1,775 (31 December 2015: EUR1,635) and a
gross fully occupied yield of 5.2% (31 December 2015: 5.7%).
Included within the portfolio are condominium properties with an
aggregate value of EUR4.7m (30 June 2015: Nil) of which EUR0.4m was
held for sale at the half year end.
On a like-for-like basis, after adjusting for the impact of
acquisitions and disposals, the portfolio valuation rose by 9.8%
per cent in the six months ended 30 June 2016, compared to an
increase of 10.6% for the year ended 31 December 2015. This
reflects a combination of market growth, improved rents, and the
increasing impact of rising condominium values on multi-family home
pricing.
By geographic segment, Berlin posted the largest like-for-like
increase at 13.7%. As at 30 June 2016, Berlin represented 70.1% of
the portfolio by value, up from 63.4% as at 30 June 2015.
EPRA NAV increase of 6.1%
EPRA NAV per share rose by 6.1% in the first half of 2016 to
EUR2.42 (GBP2.02) (31 December 2015: EUR2.28 (GBP1.67)). After
taking into account the 2015 final dividend of 2.9p (3.94 Euro
cents), which was paid in June 2016, the EPRA NAV total return in
the first half of 2016 was 7.8%.
EPRA NAV per share growth in the first half, before exceptional
costs associated with the share placing in Q1 2016, was 8.5%. Other
factors affecting NAV growth include the costs related to recent
property acquisitions and the short term impact of un-invested cash
balances from the recent fund raising.
Strong rental performance
Annualised rental income as at 30 June 2016 stood at EUR15.1m
(30 June 2015: EUR13.2m). Adjusting for acquisitions and disposals,
this represents a like-for-like increase of 4.7% compared with 30
June 2015.
Average in place rent was EUR7.6 per sqm as at 30(th) June 2016,
an increase of 5.1% compared with 30 June 2015. On a like-for-like
basis, the increase was 5.7%, with Berlin and Nuremberg & Furth
both experiencing a strong increase.
Reported vacancy was 11.1% at 30 June 2016 (30 June 2015:
10.3%). On an EPRA basis, which adjusts for units undergoing
development and made available for sale, the vacancy rate was 3.2%
(June 2015 5.6%).
New lettings' premium sustained
The Company continues to let units at a significant premium to
in-place rents. During the period, 159 leases were signed,
representing an annualised letting rate of 12.5% of units. The
average rent achieved on new lettings was EUR9.4 per sqm, a 5.4%
increase on the same period in 2015. In Berlin new leases were
signed at an average rate of EUR10.9 per sqm, a 37.4% premium to
passing rents and an increase of 7.2% compared to 30 June 2015.
Acquisitions and disposals
As at 31 August 2016, the Company had exchanged contracts on six
Berlin property packages during 2016, consisting of 375 residential
and 13 commercial units, for an aggregate purchase price of EUR39.7
million and representing an average price per square metre of
EUR1,771. Two of the property packages were structured as share
deals, which benefit from lower acquisition costs.
Acquisitions representing a consideration of EUR22.9 million
have completed in H1 2016, consisting of four properties notarised
in 2015 and one property acquired in 2016. Taking into account
properties notarised but which had not completed as at 30 June
2016, the Company's Berlin properties represent 73.1% of its
portfolio value, versus 70.1% as at 30 June 2016.
Including the acquisition of Boxhagenerstrasse, which completed
in October 2015 for EUR16.0 million (excluding acquisition costs),
as at 31 August 2016, the Company had completed or notarised 11
Berlin property acquisitions since listing on the London Stock
Exchange in June 2015. In aggregate, these were acquired for
EUR75.5 million and comprise 588 apartments and 27 commercial
units, with a lettable area of c.40,650 sqm.
Condominium sales
Five apartments were notarised for sale during the first half of
2016, representing a sales' value of EUR1.2 million. The average
value per sqm achieved was EUR3,662. Since the period end, a
further two apartments have been notarised for sale. As at 31
August 2016, 55.3% of available units at the two Berlin Kreuzberg
apartment blocks had been sold.
Since the half year end, marketing of the property in
Boxhagenerstrasse, in Berlin Friedrichshain, has started and the
first condominium sales are expected to take place within the next
two months. An additional property in Friedrichshain is being
considered for privatisation which, subject to final approval, is
expected to contribute to condominium sales during the first half
of 2017.
The Company had expected to augment condominium sales further
with a project in Berlin Moabit. The process was at an advanced
stage, with planning permission granted and the application to
partition having been lodged with the land registry. However, in
May, the Company was informed by the authorities that they would
not approve the application to split this property's entry on the
land registry, since the area where the property resides had
subsequently been assigned to the special protection register. This
property is in the process of being let, and it is expected that
the rent achieved will command a significant premium to the
portfolio's average rent per sqm in Berlin.

As at 30 June 2016, Berlin represented 70.1% of the portfolio by
value, and the region has continued its strong performance in the
first half, with significant growth in rents and property values.
Reported average rent per let sqm stood at EUR7.9, an increase of
5.3% compared with 30 June 2015. On a like-for-like basis, the
increase was 7.6%, a record for the Company. The principal driver
for the increase remains the strong reversionary increase achieved
on re-letting. In the first half of 2016 the average rent achieved
for new leases was EUR10.9 per sqm, a 37.4% premium to the average
rent per let sqm.
In Nuremberg & Furth, average rents increased by 7.7%
compared with 30 June 2015 to EUR7.2 per sqm, while Northern
Germany saw an increase of 4.5%. The decrease of 4.6% in
Baden-Wurttemberg reflected the impact of a lease extension at the
Company's office property in Holzgerlingen.
Financial Results
Reported revenue for the six-month period was EUR7.6 million
(six months to 30 June 2015: EUR5.4 million). This increase
represents a combination of organic growth in rental income, the
impact of acquisitions, and the full consolidation of Phoenix Spree
Property Fund (PSPF) for the period (in the period to 30 June 2015,
PSPF was consolidated from 9 March 2015).
On an IFRS basis, the Company reported a profit before taxation
for the period to 30 June 2016 of EUR15.7 million (30 June 2015 :
EUR9.1 million). This is after charging a number of one off or
non-cash items totalling EUR7.3m, consisting of:
- costs relating to the placing of 22.6 million shares in March
2016 of EUR1.6 million (30 June 2015: EUR1.7 million costs relating
to stock market listing);
- a charge to the profit and loss account of EUR2.8 million
relating to the accrual of the Property Advisor performance fee (30
June 2015: zero). The charge reflects the potential fee payable to
the Property Advisor, due to the increase in EPRA NAV under the
terms of the Property Advisor Agreement; and
- mark-to-market interest rate swap losses of EUR2.9m (30 June 2015: gain of EUR0.8m)
The results were positively affected by a revaluation gain of
EUR21.7 million (30 June 2015: EUR9.0 million). Excluding the
revaluation gain, the Company reported a loss before tax of EUR6
million (30 June 2015: profit before tax of EUR0.2m).
The Company invested EUR1.3 million in property renovations
during the first half. It is expected that the majority of
investment in 2016 will take place during the second half of the
year.
Reported earnings per share for the period were 14c (June 2015:
13c).
In line with its policy of paying a dividend which is equivalent
to 2.5% of EPRA NAV, the Board has declared a dividend of 1.60
pence (EUR1.92 cents) per share (30 June 2015: 1.30 pence (EUR1.83
cents) for the first half of the year. The dividend is expected to
be paid on or around 14 of October 2016 to shareholders on the
register at close of business on 30 September 2016, with an
ex-dividend date of 29 September 2016.
Balance Sheet
As at 30 June 2016, the Company had gross borrowings of EUR143.6
million (30 June 2015: EUR121.8m) and cash balances of EUR42.0
million (30 June 2015: EUR16.9 million), resulting in net debt of
EUR101.6 million (30 June 2015 : EUR104.9m) and a net loan to value
of 30.8% (30 June 2015: 40.6%). The increase in cash balances, and
resulting fall in net loan to value, is reflective of the recent
share placing which resulted in a fundraising of GBP38 million
before costs. The Company is in the process of deploying these
proceeds in the form of property acquisitions within the Berlin
region.
In January 2016, the Company entered into a EUR16.7 million six
year facility with DG Hyp relating to properties notarised during
the second half of 2015. The effective interest rate on the new
facility is 1.3%. As at 30 June 2016 the Company had drawn 100% of
this facility.
The average interest rate payable on the Company's debt as at 30
June 2016 was 2.0% (30 June 2015: 2.2%). EUR8.4 million of debt is
due for repayment in November 2016 and the Company expects to
refinance this debt upon maturity.
Market outlook
The first half of 2016 has seen the Company achieve record
rental prices, while experiencing good demand for its condominium
sales. Demand for residential property from all of tenants,
owner-occupiers and investors remains healthy. Despite recent
increases, property values, on average, remain below the cost of
construction. Recent declines in long term bond yields have
increased the relative attraction of residential property as an
investment, while reducing financing costs for property owners. For
example, as at 31 August 2016, the net yield on the Company's
portfolio stood at a premium of around 400bps to 10 yr bunds, which
in June 2016 moved into negative territory for the first time.
Population growth in most German cities, coupled with limited
supply of residential property, is also supportive of further
growth in rents and property values. The Company therefore believes
there remains significant scope for further growth in property
values and that its portfolio, with its focus on Central Berlin, is
well placed to take advantage of these trends.
Key Performance Indicators
The Company has chosen a number of Key Performance Indicators
(KPI's), which the Board believes may help investors understand the

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the six months ended 30 June 2016
1. General information
Phoenix Spree Deutschland Limited is a public limited company which
is listed on the premium segment of the main market of the London
Stock Exchange and is incorporated and domiciled in Jersey, and operates
out of Jersey and Germany. The Group's principal activity is the
holding of investment properties located in Germany. The Company's
ordinary shares were admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange
on 15 June 2015.
The registered office of the company is 13-14 Esplanade, St. Helier,
Jersey JE1 1BD.
2. Basis of preparation
The interim condensed set of consolidated financial statements has
been prepared in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency
Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority and with IAS 34 Interim
Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union.
The interim condensed financial statements do not include all the
information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements,
and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial
statements for the year ended 31 December 2015.
As required by the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial
Conduct Authority, the financial statements have been prepared applying
the accounting policies and presentation that were applied in the
preparation of the Company's published consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 31 December 2015.
The comparative figures for the financial year ended 31 December
2015 are extracted from but do not comprise, the Group's annual financial
statements for that financial year.
The condensed interim financial statements were authorised and approved
for issue on 20th September 2016.
The condensed interim financial statements are neither audited nor
reviewed and do not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning
of Section 105 of the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991.
Identification of business risks
The Group's principal risks and uncertainties are consistent with
those noted in the Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2015
being compliance with financial covenants on bank borrowing, tenant
default, liquidity, interest rate hedging instruments and interest
rate movements on bank borrowings. The Directors consider that the
significant areas of judgement made by management that have significant
effect on the Group's performance and estimates with a significant
risk of material adjustment in the second half of the year are unchanged
from those identified in the Annual Report for the year ended 31
December 2015.
Going concern
The interim condensed financial statements have been prepared on
a going concern basis which assumes the Group will be able to meet
its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future. The
directors have prepared cash flow forecasts which show that the cash
generated from operating activities will provide sufficient cash
headroom for the foreseeable future.
3. Critical accounting judgements and estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in
conformity with IFRS requires the Group to make certain critical
accounting estimates and judgements. In the process of applying the
Group's accounting policies, management has decided the following
estimates and assumptions have a significant risk of causing a material
adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognised
in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
i) Estimate of fair value of investment properties
The best evidence of fair value is current prices in an active market
for similar properties and other contracts. In the absence of such
information, the Group determines the amount within a range of reasonable
fair value estimates. In making its judgement, the Group considers
information from a variety of sources including:
a) Current prices in an active market, and its third party independent
experts, for properties of different nature, condition or location
(or subject to different lease or other contracts), adjusted to reflect
those differences.
b) Recent prices of similar properties in less active markets, with
adjustments to reflect any changes in economic conditions since the
date of the transactions that occurred at those prices.
c) Discounted cash flow projections based on reliable estimates of
future cash flows, derived from the terms of any existing lease and
other contracts, and (where possible) from external evidence such
as current market rents for similar properties in the same location
and condition, and using discount rates that reflect current market
assessments of the uncertainty in the amount and timing of the cash
flows.
Principal assumptions for management's estimation of fair value of
investment property
If information on current or recent prices or assumptions underlying
the discounted cash flow approach is not available, the fair values
of investment properties are determined using discounted cash flow
techniques. The Group uses its third party independent experts and
assumptions that are mainly based on market conditions existing at
each reporting date. The principal assumptions underlying management's
estimation of fair value are those related to: the receipt of contractual
rentals; expected future market rentals; void periods; maintenance
requirements; and appropriate discount rates. These valuations are
regularly compared to actual market yield data and actual transactions
by the Group and those reported by the market. The expected future
market rentals are determined on the basis of current market rentals
for similar properties in the same location and condition.
4. Segmental Information
Information reported to the Board of Directors, which is the chief
operating decision maker, for the purposes of resource allocation
and assessment of segment performance is focussed on the different
revenue streams that exist within the Group. The Group's principal
reportable segments under IFRS 8 are therefore as follows:
-- Residential
-- Commercial
All revenues are earned in Germany with property and administrative
expenses incurred in Jersey and Germany.

================
The property portfolio was valued at 30 June 2016 by the Group's
independent valuers, Jones Lang LaSalle GmbH ("JLL"), in accordance
with the methodology described below.
The valuation is performed on a building-by-building basis and
the source information on the properties including current rent
levels, void rates and non-recoverable costs was provided to JLL
by the Property Advisors PMM Partners (UK) Limited. Assumptions
with respect to rental growth, adjustments to non-recoverable costs
and the future valuation of these are those of JLL. Such estimates
are inherently subjective and actual values can only be determined
in a sales transaction.
Having reviewed the JLL report, the Directors are of the opinion
that this represents a fair and reasonable valuation of the properties
and have consequently adopted this valuation in the preparation
of this financial information.
The valuations have been prepared by JLL on a consistent basis
at each reporting date and the methodology is consistent and in
accordance with IFRS, which requires that the 'highest and best
use' value is taken into account where that use is physically possible,
legally permissible and financially feasible for the property concerned,
and irrespective of the current or intended use.
Discounted cash flow method (DCF)
Under the DCF method, a property's fair value is estimated using
explicit assumptions regarding the benefits and liabilities of
ownership over the asset's life including an exit or terminal value.
As an accepted method within the income approach to valuation the
DCF method involves the projection of a series of cash flows on
a real property interest. To this projected cash flow series, an
appropriate, market-derived discount rate is applied to establish
the present value of the income stream associated with the real
property.
The duration of the cash flow and the specific timing of inflows
and outflows are determined by events such as rent reviews, lease
renewal and related lease up periods, re-letting, redevelopment,
or refurbishment. The appropriate duration is typically driven
by market behaviour that is a characteristic of the class of real
property. Periodic cash flow is typically estimated as gross income
less vacancy, non-recoverable expenses, collection losses, lease
incentives, maintenance cost, agent and commission costs and other
operating and management expenses. The series of periodic net operating
incomes, along with an estimate of the terminal value anticipated
at the end of the projection period, is then discounted.
The frequency of inflows and outflows (monthly, quarterly, annually)
is contract and market-derived.
An appropriate discount rate is then applied to the cash flow.
If the frequency of the time points selected for the cash flow
is, for example, quarterly, the discount rate must be the effective
quarterly rate and not a nominal rate. The DCF method assumes that
cash outflows occur in the same period that expenses are recorded.
The exit yield is normally separately determined and differs from
the discount rate.
The discount rate reflects the opportunity and risk aspects of
the market yield demanded by investors, and consist of an interest
rate for a risk-free investment, as well as a premium, to account
for specific investment risks associated with real estate investments.
The exit yield (capitalisation rate) is used to capitalise the
stabilised net operating income at year 10 in to perpetuity, as
it is assumed that properties are kept in stock aftyer the detailed
10 year planning period. The exit yield is based on each property's
individual discount rate.
Comparable Valuation Method
Where the Group has identified properties that may be suitable
for disposal in the medium term, the valuation is based on comparable
values for properties with similar attributes in a disposal scenario.
This includes the Company's properties identified for privatisation.
The table below sets out the assets valued using the discounted
cash flow method versus comparable valuations:

shareholders of PSPF for the purchase of the minority interest in
PSPF. The option period starts on 6 June 2020. The valuation of
the purchase price will be based on the last published financial
results as at the date the option is put to the parent.
The recognition of the redemption liability has been accounted for
as a reduction in the Non-Controlling Interest with the remainder
of the recognition against the Groups retained earnings. Also see

24. Financial instruments
Fair value of financial instruments
With the exception of the variable rate borrowings, the fair values
of the financial assets and liabilities are not materially different
to their carrying values due to the short term nature of the current
assets and liabilities or due to the commercial variable rates applied
to the long term liabilities.
The interest rate swap was valued externally by the respective counterparty
banks by comparison with the market price for the relevant date.
The interest rate swaps are expected to mature between February
2019 and February 2022.
The Group uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing
the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:
Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities;
Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant
effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly
or indirectly; and
Level 3: techniques which use inputs which have a significant effect
on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market
data.
During each of the reporting periods, there were no transfers between
valuation levels.
