Deutsche Konsum REIT-AG will convene an Extraordinary General Meeting on December 4, 2025, in Berlin where shareholders will vote on a restructuring capital increase that forms the cornerstone of the company's recovery strategy. This capital increase represents a key measure of the restructuring concept developed in collaboration with FTI-Andersch AG and presented on September 1, 2025. The planned restructuring capital increase will be executed as a mixed cash and contribution in kind capital increase with subscription rights, marking a pivotal moment for the company's financial reorganization.
The restructuring initiative involves contributing receivables from registered and convertible bonds with a volume reaching approximately EUR 120 million as contribution in kind. This substantial financial restructuring constitutes a critical step for Deutsche Konsum REIT-AG's recovery efforts and future operational stability. The Federal Financial Supervisory Authority has granted the necessary exemption from the obligation to publish and submit a mandatory takeover offer under the German Securities Acquisition and Takeover Act, providing essential regulatory clearance for the restructuring process to advance without triggering mandatory takeover requirements.
This regulatory exemption specifically applies in scenarios where the Versorgungsanstalt des Bundes und der Lander or companies affiliated with VBL gain control of the Company as part of the restructuring capital increase. The exemption facilitates the company's financial reorganization by removing potential regulatory obstacles that could complicate the restructuring process. The upcoming shareholder meeting represents a decisive moment for investors to determine the company's future direction and financial structure during a challenging period for the real estate sector.
Deutsche Konsum REIT-AG maintains its strategic focus on German retail properties specializing in everyday goods at established micro-locations. The company's primary business model centers on acquiring, managing, and developing local supply properties to achieve consistent performance while leveraging hidden reserves within its portfolio. The shares of Deutsche Konsum REIT-AG are listed on the Prime Standard of the Deutsche Borse and maintain a secondary listing on the JSE. These restructuring efforts arrive at a crucial juncture for the real estate investment trust as it navigates current market challenges while preserving its strategic emphasis on retail properties serving essential consumer needs across Germany.
