Marcus Hientzsch
Busso von Alvensleben
born on September 15, 1966 in Hamburg. After school
and national service in the German air force army, he completed a 2-year apprenticeship at the Deutsche Bank AG
in Frankfurt am Main. He founded his own marketing
and real estate consultancy firm in 1986 with a focus on
project and portfolio management, real estate appraisal
and organizational consultancy. His projects included
work for Dr. Seebauer & Partner, corporate consultants,
and commercial project management of the Maritim
Hotel, a congress center and an office building in Frankfurt
am Main. During this period he also devoted himself to
broadening his university education, studying Information
Management and Business Administration simultaneously,
and later studying at the ebs Academy of Real Estate where
he was awarded the degree of Immobilienökonom (ebs).
Mr. Hientzsch was a founding partner and General Manager
of ProjektM Real Estate Frankfurt GmbH which has been
acting in an advisory capacity since 1999 as Deutsche
Real Estate AG’s local partner for expansion of the real
estate portfolio in the Central region. He was voted on to
the Deutsche Real Estate AG's Management Board in
August 2001.
born April 7, 1951 in Nörten-Hardenberg, he began his
banking training in 1973 at the Conrad Hinrich Donner
Bank in Hamburg. After national service in the Federal
German army, he worked abroad between 1975 and
1979. He returned in 1979 to an executive position at
the Hamburg branch of Jones Lang Wootton, the wellknown real estate consultants. Between 1986 and 1999,
he built up real estate activities in Germany as General
Manager of Hammerson GmbH in Frankfurt am Main
– a subsidiary of Hammerson plc, London, and CBC
Immobilien-Entwicklungs GmbH in Berlin – a subsidiary
of Générale des Eaux. Mr. Busso von Alvensleben has been
a member of the management board of Deutsche Real
Estate AG since March 1999; in February 2003, he also
assumed the office of general company legal representative
(Generalbevollmächtigter) at AGIV Real Estate AG.
Deutsche Real Estate Aktiengesellschaft –
aggressive portfolio management for listed
real estate companies
Ladies and gentlemen,
The underlying conditions in 2002 were quite difficult
for Deutsche Real Estate AG. The many political and economic conflicts in the world, in particular the threat of
war in Iraq, smothered any sustained economic recovery
before it could get under way. Decline in international
stock markets, resulting chiefly from this insecurity and
aggravated by the hike in oil prices, further discouraged
company investment and consumer spending. In Germany,
the generally poor economic situation was worsened by
the failure to implement reforms on the political level.
The German real estate market was an early casualty of
these conditions. After several good years of bouyant rents,
the West German metropolitan centers which had been
enjoying steady development experienced unexpected losses.
Simultaneously, the options for financing investments were
greatly restricted by the turbulence in the capital markets.
We have taken up the challenge posed by this unfavorable
environment. Over business year 2002, we focused our
proactive real estate management on exploiting existing
prospects in order to optimize our portfolio.
The increasing supply of extensive real estate packages
offers enormous opportunities, and we have thus devoted
considerable attention to special real estate funds which
facilitated high-volume transactions. These represent
standardized and safe real estate investments for institutional investors in which private investors can participate
through a real estate holding company.
Nonetheless, for all its advantages, we had to withdraw this
new strategic approach after a thorough economic, legal and
actuarial examination. Resources were committed to special
real estate funds. However, we continue to believe that our
central task in pursuing forward-looking business policy is
to research promising opportunities; only then can we tap
into superior earnings potential.

L E T T E R

O U R
S T O C K H O L D E R S
Our operating policy was focused on optimising our real
estate portfolio which, in view of the difficult market
situation, had taken clear priority over investment in new
properties. The basic aim of these activities was to increase
the profit potential from the letting and leasing operations
of our top quality German real estate, especially in the
metropolitan areas of Berlin, Munich and the Rhine/Main
region.
Including subsidiaries, we expanded the real estate portfolio of Deutsche Real Estate AG in 2002 from 66 to 68
properties. This increased our real estate investment volume
to € 650 million. We sold a number of properties in which
an interest was held by third parties causing the real estate
investment volume under management to fall slightly to
€ 966 million by the year’s end.
We look upon it as a success that we have been able to offer
a satisfactory result for the year 2002 under generally difficult circumstances. We were able to do justice to Deutsche
Real Estate AG’s claim to offer high-yield investment. To
further strengthen the company, we have resolved to propose to you, the stockholders of Deutsche Real Estate AG,
the full reinvestment of net earnings.

The solid portfolio structure of Deutsche Real Estate AG
offers an excellent foundation for us to pursue the development of our successful strategy. We are confident that this
strategy will allow the distributions of dividends in the
coming year.

Strength through concentration –
real estate investment in Germany
Deutsche Real Estate AG’s investments are focused
exclusively in German real estate. We concentrate on
property with a high opportunity for yield and value
appreciation. The regional focus of our efforts lies particularly in the metropolitan areas of Frankfurt am Main,
Munich and Berlin.
Our business model is founded on a comprehensive
knowledge in the real estate sector where we aggressively
employ targeted resources of the Group parent company,
AGIV Real Estate AG, and our local partners. This expertise drives our proactive real estate management that sets
us apart in our field.
We proceed from a stable base to dynamically expand
and continually optimize our real estate portfolio and
appreciate value by targeted sales. Our continuous analysis
of our economic environment allows us to react swiftly to
the market. This is an important condition for permanently
securing Deutsche Real Estate AG as a highly attractive
corporation of genuine substance.
Real estate manager –
involved from purchase to sale
Active purchasing management
Active purchasing management relates in the first instance
to the selective acquisition of individual properties offering
either above-average value appreciation potential or high
rental yield. There is however an increasing trend in the
real estate market towards deals involving acquisition of
packages or large lots of assorted properties. This arises as
insurance companies and large corporations anxious to
concentrate on their core business divest themselves of – in
some cases substantial – real estate assets. Other attractive
deals of this kind can be cut with closed-end real estate
funds. Real estate packages are almost always available at
more favorable terms than single properties and a wellorganized real estate stock corporation can achieve an aboveaverage value appreciation by acquiring such packages
and selling off individual properties which are approaching
the end of their life cycle.
Deutsche Real Estate AG has a clear strategy for making
full use of existing and future market opportunities.
Its access to outside capital and its function as a stock
exchange-listed corporation are key factors in this respect.
This also permits us to realize large acquisitions. In this
way, traditional investors in real estate get the opportunity
to transfer their assets into a form of investment that is
far easier to realize at short notice while remaining involved
in the real estate sector through shares. This procedure also
has the advantage of broadening our stockholder base.
Active real estate management is a strategic element
in Deutsche Real Estate AG’s strategy. This helps us to
achieve maximum profitability at every stage in the value
added chain. Active management directly affects three
critical phases in the typical real estate cycle – acquisition,
portfolio management and sale. The Group’s rising profit
curve is the proof that we are on the right course with
this strategy.
7
F O R U M
Revitalization of properties already in our portfolio and,
in some cases, construction of new buildings either for
retention or sale depending on market conditions is another attractive option in yield terms. This enables us to
become involved at an earlier stage in the value-added
chain and thereby generate more value appreciation potential than would be available through the acquisition of
completed developments which are in most cases already
let. The high preletting rates achieved by Deutsche Real
Estate AG enable to prepare accurate cost and profit
forecasts.
Another facet of our operating policy is prudent use of
available reserves of land to increase the value of the
existing portfolio. This may involve conversion and other
building work on existing sites. A good example of such
reserves is our “toom” Do It Yourself markets in Berlin.
By exploiting previously unused space, the floor area of
the Wittenauer Strasse property was expanded by approximately 1,694 m2. This represents an increase of 52 %.
At the same time, the conclusion of a rental agreement
for the property committed the renter to an additional
15 years.
Active portfolio management
Active portfolio management also includes revitalization
and modernization of our properties. An example of this is
the work on the office building in the Prinzregentenstrasse
in Munich.
It is part of our routine responsibilities to identify opportunities to create additional earnings potential by optimizing
tenant mix and letting status in our real estate portfolio.
This is only possible by providing active, tenant-oriented
services that help to generate customer satisfaction and
forge firm bonds between us and our tenants. This in turn
reduces tenant fluctuation and, consequently, management
costs. We also monitor our operating expenses continuously. This procedure helps us safeguard the value of our
portfolio whilst at the same time keeping tenants’ service
charges at optimal levels.
We also make full use of the latest information technology.
SAP, together with the real estate specialists at Ernst & Young
Consulting, have developed a software system based on
SAP-R3 but tailor-made to our specific requirements. Large
parts of this software are already in use.
Active sales management
Active sales management is another key factor of our
corporate strategy for maximizing yields. It involves constant observation of developments in the real estate market
and analysis of their implications for each property in our
portfolio, in particular to determine whether active portfolio management procedures would further increase profitability. Where this is no longer the case, the property is
deemed to have reached its zenith, i.e. maximum value
appreciation, and is sold. This helps to ensure maximum
return on invested capital.

Deutsche Real Estate AG:
innovation in real estate
investment. Our active
management expands new
horizons.
9
F O R U M
Local expertise –
insight into local market
link in the chain from the acquisition of a property, its
ongoing facility management and appraisal until its ultimate
sale. This innovative arrangement is the keystone of the
group’s operating structure. Each local partner functions as
an independent and thus highly motivated enterprise.
Successful real estate deals are only possible with detailed
knowledge of the local markets. A local eye can spot and
assess opportunities, and market proximity facilitates early
contact with current owners. Deutsche Real Estate AG
has recognized this need and has, in collaboration with the
AGIV Real Estate Group, built up a national network of
highly qualified real estate service providers who concentrate exclusively on their regional environment. Long-term
contracts with these local partners give Deutsche Real
Estate AG the necessary access to the main German real
estate markets and a capability to act promptly. (The names
of the local partners in the five regions are listed on the
inside of the front cover.)
It also means that the group has a pool of experienced
real estate specialists at its disposal for recruitment of new
management positions. This ensures that our growth
strategy will not suffer for lack of the necessary human
resources.
Well-thought-out structure –
the function of a management holding corporation
Deutsche Real Estate AG acts essentially as a management
holding corporation. It holds its real estate investments
through subsidiary companies, most of which are wholly
owned (the chart on the inside back cover shows details of
the Deutsche Real Estate AG group structure). Up to now,
each property has normally been the sole asset of the relevant subsidiary. This structure was chosen partly for tax
reasons and partly to enhance flexibility in real estate deals.
The local partners are responsible for identifying properties which promise good yields, and for providing direct
support during the acquisition process. In addition, the
local partners are responsible for representing the owner
and quickly responding to the wishes and problems of
the customer to reach maximum customer satisfaction.
They have their “ear to the market” and are an essential

its capital stock. It is consequently classified as an affiliate
and included in Deutsche Real Estate AG’s consolidated
financial statements. The subsidiary’s general partner is
Verwaltungsgesellschaft Deutsche Real Estate mbH of
Hamburg which is, in turn, wholly owned by Deutsche
Real Estate AG.
Revitalization with success –
Prinzregentenstrasse property in Munich
A major challenge of our operations is to identify properties with potential value appreciation and to realize this
potential as rapidly as possible. The Prinzregentenstrasse 18
revitalization project in Munich is exemplary in this regard.
The property is at a famous site opposite the House of
Art, the English Garden, and directly next to the Bavarian
State Chancellery and the Hofgarten. We obtained the
permission to purchase it in 2001 chiefly because we had
developed a tax-optimized model that was tailored to the
seller’s situation.
Directly after purchasing the building, we embarked upon
a complete refurbishment. According to our specifications,
the building was gutted except for the primary structure
(cement skeleton) and completely renovated including
a new façade. We were thus able to raise the building to
a modern standard. The entire building was equipped
with cooling ceilings that have the advantage of greater
cooling with lower service charges. In addition, underfloor
trunking was built in to accommodate the data transmission cabling necessary at this location. Foyer, stairways
and other common areas were designed to a standard
appropriate to the building’s importance.
The building is characterized by efficiency and flexibility
in accommodating different tenants. This is a result of
the shallow depth of the building and the central passage
accesses. Each story can be divided into two rental areas
of 380 to 400 m2. In addition, a card reading system is
incorporated for access control. This allows tenants such as
a worldwide attorneys’ office to use the same card for the
office in New York as the office in Munich. Its up-market,
modern and stylish furnishings provide the property with
overall appeal.
The office space was ready for occupation in 2002. After
renting approximately three-fourths of the space, we
sold the property to a special fund. The return was approximately 10 % of the overall project costs; this profit can
be substantially increased once the building is fully rented.
We were thus able to completely renovate the property
within 1.5 years, rent most of its space, and sell it at a satisfactory profit.

F O R U M
Our local partners provide detailed
insight into local markets. This enables
us to identify opportunities as soon as
they begin to crystallize.
12
Analysis points the way to the goal –
the expansion of the high-yield portfolio
Identifying opportunities –
share-based real estate special funds
Continuous analysis of the market is a basic task of our
active real estate management. This uncovers opportunities
such as the one successfully realized with the Prinzregentenstrasse property in Munich. It also allows early identification
of the fundamental changes in our environment which
require our rapid response.
Real estate special funds have developed into one of the
growth engines of the real estate investment sector. Over
the past three years, the total fund volume has nearly
doubled of this standardized, indirect real estate investment
opportunity for institutional investors. At approximately
€ 11.7 billion at the end of 2002, the overall fund volume
was far above the total market capitalization of all German
real estate stock corporations.
The analysis of 2002 paints an unpromising picture. We
unexpectedly experienced a dramatic drop in important
German real estate markets as a result of the overall economic trend. The continued collapse of share prices generated further insecurity, also in regard to real asset value.
This greatly restricted the opportunities of the holding
company to finance investments by issuing shares. The
expansion of real estate companies was therefore held back
far below the level planned at the beginning of the year.
However, the number of available attractive real estate
packages increased. A growing number of large German
corporate groups wish to concentrate on their core business and divest themselves of their real estate holdings,
thus opening up new business opportunities to real estate
specialists. In view of the difficult overall economic backdrop and the extremely unfavorable sector environment,
realizing these opportunities will be a great challenge.
Given this scenario, real estate special funds are becoming
increasingly interesting as an alternative to conventional
forms of financing.
The real estate special fund is to be understood as a real
estate trust that is exclusively available to institutions such
as insurance companies, pension funds, foundations and
church organizations. The special fund is created by an
investment trust. The maximum number of stockholders
is limited to ten. These investors are offered individual
services in the field of investment and portfolio management and services tailored to their specific needs.
As a particular type of public fund, the special funds
are subject to law on investment trusts. In particular, its
provisions governing legal structure the spectrum and
limits of investment borrowing, disclosure requirements,
share redemption guarantees, and they provide for state
supervision. The special fund is tax-neutral, i.e., the fund
is not subject to income tax.
The basic idea of a special fund for shares is an answer to
the question of how real estate stock corporations holding
real estate portfolios can generate additional stock equity
in a difficult capital market: The stock corporation transfers a (partial) portfolio to a newly created special fund in
which institutional investors can participate alongside the
real estate stock corporation.
13
F O R U M
This allows the institutional investors to profit fully from
the knowledge of the real estate stock corporation. In
addition, the investment is eligible to serve as collateral
and is accounted as real estate stock. The real estate stock
corporation can increase its management volume and
stabilize investment income by further spreading the risk.
At the same time, the attractiveness of the share is enhanced
by the increase in the legal security and transparency of
the fund on the level of the corporation. The stockholder
thereby participates in a special fund through the real
estate share, i.e., his investment can easily be resold, and
no issuing premium has to be paid. The advantages for
the corporation and stockholder can only fully be realized
when the strategy is aggressively pursued: The corporation
must focus entirely on special funds, i.e., it holds only
shares in special funds.
From perception to implementation –
active management in practice
Deutsche Real Estate AG saw the special fund as a tool
that allows us to meet market challenges. Toward the
middle of 2002, we started an internal feasibility analysis
on the advantages of the real estate special fund.
Parallel to our own developmental efforts, the resulting
new strategic approach was subjected to intense economic,
legal and actuarial scrutiny. To allow rapid implementation,
discussions were held with banks as the initiators of the
investment trust and investors. We met with very positive
feedback.
14
In the final analysis, however, substantial legal and timerelated barriers could not be overcome. The transaction
costs of the portfolio to be transferred would have noticeably deflated current results of these properties. The necessary total realignment of the company in 2002 around the
special fund proved impossible against this backdrop.
For this reason, we resolved to postpone the implementation of our plans. The developmental effort concerning
the special fund involved a substantial effort on the part
of our personnel in 2002, an additional example of the
accomplishments of active management. Our knowledge
base was expanded, which further ensures our future
success.

Information for investors
Real estate stock does better than the DAX
In the international stock market, the downward trend
continued in 2002. Up until March, the stock exchanges
were quite stable. However, once it became clear that the
world economy would not recover as hoped, the markets
began to decline across the board. The threat of military
conflict in Iraq and the accounting scandals in major corporations were additional sources of insecurity to investors.
Against this very weak backdrop, the prices of the 30 largest
German shares that represent the DAX performed quite
poorly in comparison to the values of important foreign
indexes. Over 2002, the drop in value averaged approximately 44 %. German real estate stock again proved to be
much more stable with losses of around 20 %.
The DIMAX, a special index run by the bank of Ellwanger
& Geiger that consists of 55 real estate stock corporations,
resisted the general market trend far into 2002. A drop
in the price of one of the index heavyweights that lost about
two-thirds of its value in June and July generated massive
insecurity among investors, which was intensified by the
negative news from the German real estate market.
Movements in share price
The price of the Deutsche Real Estate AG share was unable
to escape these unfavorable conditions. After reaching
€ 9.49 at the beginning of the new year on the Frankfurter
exchange, our shares started a slide that only bottomed out
in the middle of November at € 2.00. This low marked a
turning point, however. Over a short period, the share
price of Deutsche Real Estate AG recovered to compensate
for part of the loss. By the end of 2002, our stock was
listed at € 4.20.

Market indexes
Investors expect information that allows them to make
reliable evaluations. A high degree of transparency is
required. Only those who offer this are successful in the
stock market. The DIMAX run by the banking firm
Ellwanger & Geiger provides this share price transparency.
In this special index, all listed German real estate corporations are compared. After weighting for market capitalization, Deutsche Real Estate AG stood at 21st place in the
list of 55 shares at end 2002.
The DIX (Deutscher Immobilienindex) that has been
published for five years by the DID (Deutsche Immobilien
Datenbank GmbH) measures the performance of direct real
estate investments by institutional investors in Germany.
This index provides a view into performance and thereby
contributes to the transparency of businesses. Deutsche Real
Estate AG is planning on creating a database in conformance with the DIX as soon as the new real-estate-specific
SAP system has been fully implemented. We will then be
able to use the information offered by the DID to measure
performance.

Corporate governance builds confidence
The principles of corporate governance have always been a
major guide in the business policy of Deutsche Real Estate
AG. The recommendations of the “German Corporate
Governance Codex” largely fit with the philosophy of our
company. (The statements of conformance are published
on the Internet under www.drestate.de.) On the following
issues, our position differs from the Commissions recommendations:
■
■
■
18
No retention was agreed for the existing D&O insurance
for the Management Board and Supervisory Board since
it was not recommendable for technical reasons.
The Management Board has no Chairman or Speaker: It
would be illogical to appoint one since the Management
Board only consists of two persons.
The Supervisory Board is not required to form an audit
committee: This body was not felt to be necessary since
the Supervisory Board consists of six members; hence
any questions can be efficiently discussed and resolved
by the Supervisory Board itself.
■
■
■
■
The members of the Supervisory Board are entitled
to exercise managerial or consulting functions for
significant competitors of Deutsche Real Estate AG:
The Management Board and the Supervisory Board
are of the opinion that the experience gained from
such activities can be profitably used for Deutsche Real
Estate AG.
Information on the acquisition or sale of shares or other
securities is published according to the provisions of
§ 15a Securities Trading Law: Such transactions are
published when their overall value to the member of the
Management Board or Supervisory Board is € 25,000
or more within 30 days.
The consolidated financial statements and interim reports
are drafted in accordance with the provisions of the
German Commercial Code and German Corporation law.
The public has access to the consolidated financial
statements and interim reports according to the legal
provisions concerning their publication.
As a supplement to the “German Corporate Governance
Codex”, the “Initiative Corporate Governance der
deutschen Immobilienwirtschaft e. V.” was founded in
September 2002. One of its founding members and
members of its Advisory Board is Dr. Rainer Behne, the
Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Deutsche Real
Estate AG and Chairman of AGIV Real Estate AG. This
initiative developes additional guidelines that take into
account the special demands of the real estate market as
they relate to corporate governance. This resource exists
to enhance the competitive edge of real estate stock
corporations in the capital market.
Additional information according to the EPRA
Deutsche Real Estate AG is committed to the increased
disclosure of corporate data based on the “Best Practices
Policy Recommendations” developed by the European
Public Real Estate Association (EPRA). The key to this
expanded reporting is information on the net asset value
(NAV) and the operating results according to the EPRA.
These voluntary standards for financial reporting allow
European real estate corporations to be compared. This
grants analysts and investors a greater degree of transparency.

The real estate portfolio of Deutsche Real Estate AG
was valuated on June 30, 2001 by external, publicly
appointed and certified experts. The valuation was carried
out according to the gross rental method stipulated in
the Valuation Ordinance.
The reports were internally updated at the end of 2002.
The update reflects the growth in value from improved
property management and changes in rental conditions.
The valuation also responds to the influences of market
conditions according to basic principles determined by
external experts.
In the future, all real estate investments will be valued by
external auditors at regular intervals, or the existing reports
will be updated by external experts.
According to EPRA guidelines, the properties under constructions (project developments) are stated at production
cost and not at market value. The NAV hence represents a
net inventory value based on market values that do not
include the potential of the properties under construction.
The management calculates that the potential value amounts
to approximately € 4.1 million.
20
The operating results portrayed in the following table lists
the origin of the individual contributions to operating
income.
Beyond the publication of the NAV and results according
to the EPRA, we will clarify in the management report
in particular the information on risk management recommended by the EPRA. We will provide information in the
Notes on the modalities for management remuneration by
applying the principles of the corporate governance codex.
As an association that includes leading European real estate
public corporations, financial analysts, investors, banks
and auditors, the EPRA plays an important role in streamlining the valuation process on a European level. In this
context, there is close coordination with the “Real Estate”
working group of the German Society of Investment
Analysis and Asset Management (DVFA) that developed
the first standards for analyzing real estate and real estate
stock corporations.

Development of share capital
On December 31, 2002, the capital stock of Deutsche Real
Estate AG was € 20,582,200 in comparison to € 18,480,000
in the year before. Two changes in capital structure were
responsible for this increase. On the one hand, it was
resolved at the Annual General Meeting on May 15, 2002
to issue bonus shares by increasing the capital stock with
€ 1,848,000 from corporate funds. On the other hand,
new authorized capital stock was generated by subscription
in kind especially for the acquisition of real estate. In
September 2002, a chunk of the authorized share capital
was used to increase share capital by € 254,200, to balance
residual purchase money liabilities for Carreè Seestrasse
GbR and BGB HHD Büro-Center Lützowplatz.

Stockholder structure
There were only minor changes in stockholder structure
during the year under review. With a share of capital stock
of 65.52 %, AGIV Real Estate AG as the legal successor to
HBAG Real Estate AG is the main stockholder of Deutsche
Real Estate AG (previous year: 56.56 %). In accordance
with the allocation standard in § 22 Para. 1 WpHG, this
portion includes a share held by a subsidiary of AGIV Real
Estate AG. WCM Beteiligungs- und Grundbesitz AG
reduced its share in 2002 to 19.87 % (last year: 24.89 %),
and the WCM share dropped again in March 2003 to
8.97 %. The Hamburgische Landesbank held 5.01%
(last year: 5.07 %). The share of the Bayerische Landesbank
dropped below 5.00 % due to the increase in non-cash
capital (last year: 5.07 %): At the year’s end, the nominal
value of widely-held stock was 9.60 % (March 2003:
20.50 %).

Insecurity holds back growth
In 2002, the world economy was marked by great
uncertainty. Initial hopes for continued economic improvement in the second half of the year were disappointed.
The steadily escalating confrontation over Iraq with its
unforeseeable consequences paralyzed the markets. This
conflict significantly contributed to the decline on international stock markets. This was also related to a large
jump in oil prices, further aggravated by the political crisis
in Venezuela.
In view of the uncertainty, the willingness of companies to
invest fell significantly. At the same time, the available
income of private households decreased worldwide from
the fall in share prices. Both factors were reflected in the
world economic trend. The US economy has recovered
somewhat in 2002 from last year’s weakness. However, this
did not generate any lasting impetus for countries outside
of the USA. For example, Japan was not able to break out
of recession, and the economy in the EU grew much more
slowly than in the previous year.
Among the major industrial countries, Germany experienced
real growth in its gross domestic product of only 0.2 %
and hence came in close to last place. As a result, the overall economic utilization of capacity fell, and the number
of jobless increased further. This was reflected in private
consumption which experienced a downward trend for the
first time in several years.
26
H O L D I N G
In addition to investment in equipment, investment in
construction again registered a serious overall decline.
Building construction was particularly affected by this
negative trend and fell in 2002 by 11.5 % according to
the initial estimate from the Federal Office of Statistics.
Downturn in the German real estate market
Against the background of the weak overall economy, the
position of the German real estate market worsened in 2002
at a speed and to an extent that had not been observed in
recent memory, but that was nevertheless not completely
unforeseen. The increasing necessity for comprehensive
restructuring and cost reduction in many companies was
the chief reason for the 33 % drop in new demand for office
space in the five bastions of German real estate, Berlin,
Düsseldorf, Frankfurt am Main, Hamburg and Munich.
There was a corresponding drop in sales revenue from
office space of 27 %, or more than 750,000 m2.
At the same time, the vacant office space in the five major
real estate markets increased to approximately 3.3 million m2
at the end of 2002; this is a rise of approximately 64 % in
comparison to the same date of the preceding year. The
vacancies resulted from the high level of building activity
and completion of projects in Munich and Frankfurt am
Main. A further increase in supply arose from office space
offered by banks and insurance companies for subletting
in the context of cost reduction and efficiency enhancing
programs.
A low interest
rate enabled
investments
to be made
under favorable
conditions.
Peak rents declined as a consequence of these negative
factors. This especially affected Frankfurt am Main,
Hamburg and Munich, leading in certain instances to
very serious losses.
2002 did not yield any improvement for retail in particular.
In fact, the sector-wide weakness increased. In many areas,
the continuing reticence of consumers led to the strongest
reduction in sales in 50 years. Given this context, already
low profits continued their downward slide. This in turn
produced greater competitive pressure that was countered
by many major players in the sector by concentrating their
resources. Subsequently, the retail real estate sector had to
confront additional downward pressure on rental price
that increasingly spread to prime downtown city locations.
Money market
The conditions for investors in the money market remained
extremely favorable. After a rise at the beginning of the
year, interest rates at the end of 2002 fell clearly below
those of the prior year. According to the German Federal
Reserve Bank, the average interest rate for ten-year mortgages on residential real estate fell by 0.35 % to 5.5 %.
For loans with a term of two years, the average interest
rate even fell to 4.6 %.
Given this highly positive interest climate, it was possible to
aggressively pursue the financing of investments. Expiring
financing arrangements were able to be fixed over the
long-term at much lower interest rates. In addition, the
financing of new investments remained favorable with loan
capital plus a relatively low proportion of equity. Due to the
resulting positive effects, the overall interest expenditures
for the real estate portfolio were less in comparison to the
prior year. In the future, the requirements concerning
shareholder’s equity will rise due the Basel II provisions
and reduce the described leverage effect accordingly.
Legal situation
Regarding the general German real estate market, the legal
conditions remained largely stable in 2002. However, for
domestic real estate stock corporations, the introduction of
legislation to further reform the stock and balance sheet
law regarding transparency and publicity (TransPuG) produced new regulations. These can be grouped into three
categories.
27
M A N A G E M E N T

R E P O R T

C O M P A N Y
G R O U P
The main thrust is to further link to the German Corporate Governance Codex with the Corporation Law by means
of the statement of conformance as well as Supervisory
Board activity and the audit of the financial statements.
Another goal is to govern the development of financial
reporting. In addition to regulations regarding details, an
important stipulation is the upward valuation of consolidated financial statements by the introduction of an
endorsement requirement.
The third point deals with a series of revisions of details
that fall under the rubric of modernization and regulation
of German Corporation Law. Of substantial practical
importance is for example the removal of restrictions
on changes in capital structure. For example, increases in
capital stock from corporate funds will be feasible in the
future without the previously necessary approval of the
financial statements.
Among the revised details is that the length of time for
the submission of stockholder counterproposals has been
extended. Stockholders are now allowed to submit counterproposals up to two weeks before the day of the annual
general meeting. Beforehand, the time period was one week
after publication of the call to hold the annual general
meeting in the Federal Gazette. The counterproposals are
now only permitted to be published on the corporate
website. In addition, the electronic Federal Gazette will
be the exclusive medium for the required publications of
corporations.
The new legal regulations of the TransPuG that affect
Deutsche Real Estate AG have already been incorporated
into the bylaws as necessary.
28
H O L D I N G
Tax situation
A further series of important changes in tax law came
into effect on January 1, 2002. These include a general tax
exemption on the sale of shares held by corporations in
other corporations starting in fiscal year 2002. This will
make stock investments substantially more attractive for
institutional investors. There is an additional benefit
for financial holding companies granted: Dividends from
subsidiaries will be tax-free starting 2002.
Capital gains of 25 % paid for retained as well as distributed corporate profits will no longer be included in the
income tax owed by the stockholder as of 2002. Stockholder dividends are subject to one-half of the individual
income tax rate reduced by the related (and also halved)
income-related expenses and the saver’s exemption
(so-called half-income method).
Private shareowners can sell interest in corporations taxfree after one year if they do not hold a major interest.
However, the definition of a “major interest” has been
reduced from 10 % to 1 % effective January 1, 2002.
Starting 2002, the half-income procedure will apply to
tax-liable sales of shares within the speculation period and
to holdings constituting a minimum of 1 %.

AN D TH E G ROU P
Despite the overall difficult conditions, Deutsche Real
Estate AG continued its strategy of solid growth in fiscal
year 2002. Including subsidiaries, the real estate portfolio
was expanded over the year from 66 to 68 properties; this
increased corporate investment volume to € 650 million
from € 623 million last year. The investment volume
under management fell slightly at year’s end from approximately € 978 million to approximately € 966 million
since chiefly properties were sold in which an interest was
held by third parties. The rentable space at year’s end
was approximately 759,500 m2 (last year: approximately
757,000 m2).
The rental rate for the total lettable area of approximately
704,300 m2 was 92.1 % with an average remaining term
of tenancy agreements of 6.3 years. This permitted us
to again attain favorable letting income which was due
in large part to the commitment of our local partners.
Regional risks and risks inherent in tenant and portfolio
structures were spread more widely and consequently
reduced by active real estate management. This was also
related to value safeguarding measures for the overall real
estate portfolio.
For the second half of 2002, Deutsche Real Estate AG has
strongly focused on involvement in special real estate funds.
The advantages of this alignment, such as in particular
increased transparency and security of real estate investments, result from the official regulations governing special
funds in which exclusively institutional investors may participate. The private stockholders of Deutsche Real Estate AG
can also profit from its benefits. In addition, this strategy
greatly increases the management volume of AGIV subsidiaries and increases the investment income of Deutsche
Real Estate AG by further spreading the risk.
The most significant acquisitions in 2002
In 2002, Deutsche Real Estate AG acquired a five-story
office and commercial building at the Zeil, the high-traffic
shopping area in Frankfurt am Main. This property, erected
in 1958, has retail space of over 2,350 m2 and 880 m2
office space. The investment volume totaled approximately
€ 5.5 million. The letting ratio of the building is high,
and it promises attractive returns. The refurbishment of
the building is planned to further exploit its potential.

In July 2002, Deutsche Real Estate AG acquired a building lease for a developed parcel at a prominent Munich
location on the Promenadeplatz. The six-story office
building with a total useable floor space of approximately
3,786 m2 is being renovated and relet. Building started in
October 2002 and is planned to end in September 2003.
By the end of February 2003, approximately 26 % of the
floor space was rented.
In Seesen, Deutsche Real Estate AG purchased a logistics
complex with favorable traffic access for approximately
€ 3.4 million in August 2002. The property with a total
storage and office space of 9,842 m2 is being let under
attractive conditions. To minimize risk, it was nonetheless
stipulated that the rental agreement can be shortened to
the end of 2003 if the tenancy agreement cannot be
extended under similar conditions against expectations.
Another major transaction in the third quarter of 2002
was the acquisition of a 60 % interest in the real estate
company, Neu-Isenburg, Hugenottenallee. Construction
started in July 2002 on a five-story office building with
staggered stories. The completion of the building with an
overall floor area of 5,061 m2 is envisioned for April 2003.
At the end of February 2003, already 40 % of the space
was rented.
Construction activities
The last of three buildings was finished at the construction
project in Neu-Isenburg, Dornhofstrasse in the third quarter
of 2002. The seven-story office building with a total of
approximately 8,600 m2 rental space is almost completely
rented.
In the technology park in Heidelberg, the completion of
the third construction stage will probably be delayed until
March 2003. Deutsche Real Estate AG holds a 49 % share
in this real estate company. The provisions of the general
acquisition agreement exclude any economic disadvantages
for Deutsche Real Estate AG. The technology part is
particularly envisioned for start-up biotech companies with
limited financing opportunities arising from the turbulence
in the capital markets. Nevertheless, the amount of let
space was increased to 60 % of approximately 24,000 m2
by the end of February 2003.
The first stage of the revitalization and renovation of the
Hamburg, Osterfeldstrasse property is nearly finished. The
part of the expansion affecting tenants will be carried out
on an individual basis in accordance with respective tenant
demands. By the end of the year, the demand for available
office space had recovered. At the end of February 2003,
approximately 20 % of the space was rented.
The upgrading of the Munich, Prinzregentenstrasse property was concluded as planned in the year under review
except for user-specific additions to the still unlet space.
On December 31, 2002 76 % of the overall floor area of
4,900 m2 was rented.
30
In Berlin, the planning for the new structure on the
Reichpietschufer in the Tiergarten quarter is making good
progress. The planning permission was granted in September
2002. In accordance with a corresponding preletting
arrangement, an eight-story office building with a rental
space of approximately 10,900 m2 is planned to be erected
on the site purchased in 2001.
The most significant sales in 2002
In the context of our active real estate management,
Deutsche Real Estate AG achieved profits from sales of
€ 15 million in fiscal year 2002.
In July 2002, Deutsche Real Estate AG sold the last of three
new office buildings in Neu-Isenburg, Dornhofstrasse
directly after is was completed. Two further properties were
sold in the southern region; a building on Prinzregentenstrasse in Munich, sold in October 2002 after a construction
phase lasting approximately one year. Two months later,
the sale was announced of 94 % of the real estate company
at Friedrichstrasse, Stuttgart. In 2001, we refurbished this
office building situated at a prime downtown location, and
it has been fully let since that time.
Financing
The operations of the Deutsche Real Estate Group continues to be based on a solid foundation. For example,
the stockholders’ equity in the consolidated financial statements at the end of fiscal year 2002 increased by 8 %
to € 104.6 million corresponding to an equity ratio of
18 % (last year: 17 %). The stockholders’ equity in the
financial statements of the holding company rose 7 % to
€ 123.0 million.
Among the Group’s increased fixed assets, the liabilities to
banks only rose slightly by € 5.5 million to € 422.8 million.
Most of the corporation’s real estate is financed with longterm loans. A significant part of the cash flow is obtained
from long-term tenancy agreements on the properties in the
portfolio. Principle repayments of € 9.0 million also contributed to the increase proportion (last year: € 8.9 million).

Sales
The consolidated sales of Deutsche Real Estate AG grew
in fiscal year 2002 faster than fixed assets to € 38.0 million
from € 32.4 million in the previous year. This corresponds
to a rise of 17 %. Other operating income rose in 2001 to
€ 19.4 million from € 14.6 million. This is due primarily
to the sale of shares in the office building on Friedrichstrasse in Stuttgart, and from the sales of properties on
Prinzregentenstrasse in Munich and Dornhofstrasse 38,
Neu-Isenburg.
The holding company again did not report any sales turnover in the commercial sense.
In the financial statements of the holding company,
ordinary activities fell € 7.2 million to € 5.1 million. This
was due primarily to a reduced number of real estate
sales. The decrease in sales was due to both a poor market
and a conscious reticence arising from the intention of
possibly transferring assets to the special fund. The profit
from the year was € 5.0 million and hence 57 % lower
than that of the previous year.
Employees
As of December 31, 2002 Deutsche Real Estate AG had
no employees. The item of € 0.9 million for personnel
expenses relates to remuneration paid to the Management
Board and pension payments to a former executive director.
Profit
The profit from ordinary Group activities increased by
170 % to € 9.1 million. After-tax consolidated profit was
€ 7.2 million, more than six times that of last year’s level
of € 1.1 million.

Organization and administration
Deutsche Real Estate AG is a subgroup belonging to the
parent AGIV Real Estate AG and so a member of one of
Germany’s largest quoted real estate groups.
Deutsche Real Estate Service GmbH & Co. KG, a 100 %
subsidiary of Deutsche Real Estate AG, is responsible for
office organization and asset management, portfolio management, financial accounting, controlling and legal affairs,
and employed 23 people at year’s end. The areas of investor
and public relations as well as EDP are supervised by
Taxxus Real Estate GmbH & Co., an office organization
and management company of AGIV Real Estate AG.
Thus Deutsche Real Estate AG is able to seek out qualified
personnel and the latest technology in every area.
In the year under review, the expansion of the SAP-R3 data
processing system continued jointly with the AGIV subsidiaries. SAP-R3 has integrated accounting and reporting
systems that enhance data quality and availability and
improve control of the corporation’s activities.
The service companies charge Deutsche Real Estate AG
fixed fees for their outside services. In the area of commercial property management, the fees were lowered by
0.7 % points starting January 2003 to an average of 2.0 %
of the rental income.
Deutsche Real Estate AG reacted to the difficult market
conditions by adapting its organizational structure and
worked on reducing the cost structure together with AGIV.
The outcome was a centralization of the departments
of the AGIV Group with the combination of the areas
of legal matters and financial accounting in Hamburg. In
December 2002, six employees of Deutsche Real Estate
Service were made redundant for organizational reasons.
The dismissals became effective in 2003.
Research and development
As a real estate stock corporation, Deutsche Real Estate AG
does not pursue research and development in a conventional
sense. Nevertheless, the real estate market requires comparable intelligence. For example, the wide variety of developmental tasks involved in construction and architectural
engineering as well as the changing requirements of tenants
and users must be analyzed. On the basis of these analyses,
Deutsche Real Estate AG gains the necessary information
to determine whether the real estate presently owned or
to be purchased can be managed in line with market conditions over the long-term. Developments are also anticipated than can materially affect the market value of our
properties.

Present in
regional
commercial
markets through
a network
of partners.
As a member of the non-profit-making association
agenda4-eCommunity, Deutsche Real Estate AG actively
participated over the last twelve months in a dialog between
science, the public sector and the economy. Initial joint
results were attained as courses were set up using a crosssystem approach. The individual professional disciplines of
city and regional planning, architecture, civil engineering,
economics, ecology and law were closely linked to optimize the chain of added value from undeveloped plots
to building use, and to help companies participating in the
planning, construction and development process to operate economically.
Since 2002, we have also sponsored gif (Gesellschaft für
immobilienwirtschaftliche Forschung e.V.). The goal
of gif and hence representatives from the entire spectrum
of businesses and institutions associated with real estate
is to increase market transparency, in particular by creating
standards for the analysis and evaluation of markets
and properties. In the 16 gif working groups, guidelines,
definitions and recommendations were drafted and presented to the real estate sector as a strategic instruments.
Best known are the gif guidelines for calculating office and
commercial rental space. These have become standard.
We have incorporated into our existing risk management
system their recommendations for the analysis of real
estate risks.
34
Risk management
Deutsche Real Estate AG has implemented a risk management system based on the Act on Control and Transparency
in the Business Environment (KonTraG). This system
has been incorporated into the entire organization and is
documented in a manual. The internal coverage of risks is
presented in monthly reports and ad-hoc communications
dealing with significant events.
An essential component of the risk management system is
a network throughout Germany of strategic holdings in
regional agencies. Through these local partners, Deutsche
Real Estate AG gains local knowledge of the market to
allow early regional intervention.
Market risk
A detailed understanding of the market is required for
active portfolio management. Deutsche Real Estate AG
has access to information and commercial developments
in the market through a network of information service
providers, agents, memberships in branch associations,
and local partners. We pay particular attention to early
indicators that influence demand for commercial rental
space in reference to price and quality.
The process of ongoing adaptation of our buildings to the
changing needs of tenants and users is not confined merely
to technical developments. It also includes considerations
like trends in space requirements and fitting-out standards.
Based on our current assessment, we are predicting that
2003 will continue to show weak demand with additionally
decreasing rents.
However, most of the rental space is locked into long-term
agreements. Only the unoccupied space (7.9 % of total
lettable area of all properties) and the few rentals that are
up for renewal are exposed to the risk of being rented
under less favorable conditions or being on the market
for a long period. The influence of currently unfavorable
market conditions on the valuation of the real estate
portfolio will therefore be limited.
Deutsche Real Estate AG’s strategy is to restrict its business
activity to the German market, its core area of expertise.
This reduces the risk of misjudging the fluctuations of
trends in demand.
Operating risk
The organizational relationship and economic integration
with AGIV Real Estate AG creates a relationship of interdependence. Hence decisions regarding organizational
structure and business strategy as well as the economic status
of the parent company affect the operation of Deutsche
Real Estate AG. Deutsche Real Estate AG actively participates in shaping this relationship: The Management Board
of Deutsche Real Estate AG is represented in the directorates of AGIV Real Estate AG and can use the corporate
relationship accordingly to produce advantages in efficiency.
Financing risks in real estate investment
Interest risk
Deutsche Real Estate AG pursues a security-oriented
financing policy in which long-term fixed-rate agreements
are the norm. The average remaining term for long-term
loans at fixed interest rates for financing the portfolio was
5 years and 7 months at the end of 2002. Deutsche Real
Estate AG uses this approach to counter high financing
costs from potential increases in the interest rate that could
negatively affect the equity yield rate since borrowing has
a clear leverage effect on returns.
In addition to ongoing rental income, profits from sales
represent a significant portion of the year-end result.
In times of economic uncertainty and weak demand in
the real estate market, there is a risk that these gains will
not be achieved by ongoing sales at the time desired by
Deutsche Real Estate AG and shown in the year-end result.
The present modest demand from investors illustrates
this observation. Nevertheless, to clarify the actual value of
the company to stockholders and increase transparency,
Deutsche Real Estate AG will start publishing supplementary information in 2003 in accordance with the specifications of the European Public Real Estate Association
(EPRA).

We are in
touch with
the banking
world.
A variable interest agreement exists for a share of the real
estate financing (€ 122 million), for example, when a property is being sold. Deutsche Real Estate AG uses swap
transactions to limit the risk from changes in the interest
rate. At present, € 56.5 million of these variable interest
agreements are secured through swap transactions. A change
of the current interest rate level by one percentage point
would cause a change in the interest costs of € 0.67 million
per annum of the remaining variable share (14.4 %) of the
overall financing.
Capital market access
For a company experiencing expansion and growth such
as Deutsche Real Estate AG, access to the capital market is
essential given our capital-intensive business model. To
secure the sources of financing, various measures are used
to strengthen investor confidence. This includes expanded
disclosure in accordance with the guidelines of the European
Public Real Estate Association (EPRA) that substantially
increase the transparency of the company. In addition,
internal reorganization is underway in support of this goal.
In view of substantial equity capital participation on the
part of the Hamburgische and Bayerische Landesbank
and their significant involvement in the existing portfolio
36
financing, Deutsche Real Estate AG has a secure relationship with the banking community. The management also
makes use of other instruments for acquiring additional
capital, including subscriptions in kind of real estate assets
in exchange for new shares. At a later date the issue of
corporate bonds is planned.
Currency risks
Since Deutsche Real Estate AG’s properties are concentrated exclusively in Germany, their financing is almost
exclusively done in local currency (€) to minimize currency
risks from fluctuations in the exchange rate. Four properties were financed in Swiss francs at a total of SFR 91.1
million that did not involve forward coverage. A change
in the exchange rate by 1 Rappen in relation to the Euro
would alter the value of the existing loan obligation by
€ 0.28 million.
Risk from accruing depreciation charges
The progressive depreciation method used by the corporation brings an increase in depreciation charges on a real
estate asset as time progresses. This inevitably affects profit.
During the period in which fixed interest rates apply to
the long-term loans for financing existing real estate acquisitions, this negative effect is offset by decreasing interest
charges as loans are redeemed. Since the depreciation does
not affect liquidity, these cost-offsetting effects improve
the liquidity situation over time.
Risks from property in the portfolio
Deutsche Real Estate AG spreads its risks across a broad
range of properties and regions. Transactions that represent a high individual risk and that have the potential to
endanger the company are not concluded. Investment
funds are systematically allocated to conurbations, major
cities and regions with development potential, especially
in the states of the former West Germany. This includes
different types of property use, especially retail and other
commercial use. A combination of detailed planning at the
local (individual building) level and regular reports is used
for the purposes of portfolio controlling and analysis.
Risks from loss of rent
Under our active portfolio management policy, we decide
from case to case whether to seek normal long-term tenancy
agreements (up to 15 years) or only more short-term
agreements. Responsibility for letting vacant space is in
the hands of the local partners but subject to approval by
the Management Board. The strategic objective in all cases
is long-term capital appreciation rather than short-term
profit. The management of the buildings is assigned to
Deutsche Immobilien Management GmbH, a specialized
AGIV subsidiary.
Risks from construction activities
Risks associated with buildings
We take out comprehensive insurance through a specialized broker against all risks to which the building itself is
exposed. The insurance was reevaluated in conjunction
with the flooding of the Elbe in the summer of 2002.
Contractual agreements with professional companies have
been concluded for the technical control and monitoring
involved in the ongoing inspection of the buildings. These
contractors are involved prior to acquisition of new properties and carry out surveys to identify and evaluate any
hidden defects or environmental problems.
Great potential risks are associated with construction
activities and so these are monitored with particular
care. The construction progress is reported in detail to
the Management Board in monthly project reports.
The potential project risk is documented during the
construction phase and communicated to the parties
responsible for decision-making.
Rental risk
Construction activities are only started when prerental
arrangements have been established with creditworthy
tenants.
Construction cost risks
Risks arising from construction cost overrun during the
erection of a building are contractually limited and largely
born by the contractor.
Sales risk
In calculating the project, a conservative sales price is used
in order to cover any marketing risk. This is done regardless of whether the property was retained as a corporate
holding or will remain as such, or if it is to be sold to a
third party.

Simplifying
the corporate
structure
reduces risks.
Infrastructure risks
Deutsche Real Estate AG counters risks associated with the
failure of computer systems, flawed business processes, or
individual key personnel in the company with specialized
knowledge by providing organizational integration within
the AGIV Group in the form of redundant resources that,
however, must not be maintained as expensive idle capacity.
The reduction of risks arising from the management and
control process was also accomplished by the simplification
of the corporate structure associated with reorganization.
Other steps in this direction are the reduction of the
number of subsidiaries and a further standardization and
optimization of business processes and reporting.
Essential business processes (construction supervision,
purchasing, letting, sales) are continually being updated
and further standardized.
38
Legal situation
Influences on changes in the legal situation are analyzed
by professional consultants and incorporated into business
policy.
Dependence report
Deutsche Real Estate AG was not subject to any control
agreement in fiscal 2002. It produced a report on its
relations with affiliated companies pursuant to Section 312
of the German Corporation Act (AktG). This report closes
with the following statement:
“In all the transactions described in this report on its
relations with affiliated companies, our corporation has
without exception received a fair and adequate consideration under the circumstances known to us at the time of
the individual transaction. No action was taken during
fiscal year 2002 which the corporation is legally required
to disclose.”
O U T LO O K
In 2003, the world economy is characterized by hopes for
a lasting recovery. However, given the existing economic
and political insecurities, no thoroughgoing improvement
of the situation is anticipated for the first half of the year.
For the second half of the year, in contrast, the opportunities for a turnaround are felt to be promising. These
expectations are however based upon the premise that no
unforeseen negative effects will arise from the Iraq conflict. Against this backdrop, only a moderate recovery is
anticipated for the German economy.
The real estate market is therefore not expected to revive
in 2003. The anticipated continuation of receding demand
for commercial property will cause a drop in business
volume and increase in vacancy. For this reason, rents will
probably also remain under pressure. If the economic conditions do not worsen, a best-case scenario would envision
the stabilization of the real estate markets at a low level
over the course of 2003. Against this backdrop, today’s
comparatively long marketing times for new and renewed
rentals will probably not shorten.
In view of the global political and economic uncertainties
as well as further potential negative influences on the
German real estate market, we feel that it would be unwise
to forecast specific results. Nevertheless, we will continue
to pursue results for the current fiscal year 2003 that will
enable us to distribute dividends to the stockholders of
Deutsche Real Estate AG.
Berlin, March 28, 2003
The Management Board
Busso von Alvensleben
Marcus Hientzsch
In this difficult environment, Deutsche Real Estate AG
intends to concentrate on optimizing its own portfolio.
Within the context of this strategy, sales of properties
amounting to an overall volume of approximately € 100 million are foreseen. We wish to use the liquidity that this
will release to finance planned investments in our existing
portfolio and increase the equity ratio by the redemption
of loans. At the same time, this will reinforce profitability.

Notes to the financial statements of the holding company
G E N E R A L I N F O R M AT I O N
The financial statements were drawn up in accordance with
the statutory accounting requirements of the German
Commercial Code (HGB) and supplementary regulations
of the German Corporation Act (AktG).
Deutsche Real Estate Aktiengesellschaft, Bremerhaven is
a large stock corporation in accordance with § 267 para. 3
HGB.
For the profit and loss account, total cost type accounting
was used as in the prior year in accordance with § 275
para. 2 HGB.
Receivables, other assets and liquid assets are valued at
their nominal value.
In the year under review, accruals for pensions were reported
for the first time according to internationally recognized
standards (FAS 87) based on actuarial principles using the
present-value method at an interest rate of 5.75 %. The
calculations were based on the tables of Dr. Klaus Heubeck.
Tax accruals and other accruals cover all identifiable risks
as well as contingent liabilities. They have been formulated
at amounts based on customary business judgment.
The tangible fixed assets are reported at acquisition cost
less scheduled linear depreciation. The depreciation is
scheduled over the anticipated useful life.
The accruals for deferred taxes were essentially calculated
from the differences between the investment income from
subsidiaries and the lower amount of taxable profit on
which Deutsche Real Estate AG, Bremerhaven, is assessed
in accordance with the uniform and separate determination of the rules of income taxation. Differences between
the amounts shown for investment income from the subsidiaries in the commercial balance sheet and in the tax
balance sheet essentially result from tax contributions and
the fact that the real estate owned by the subsidiaries is
subject to progressive depreciation in the former and
straight-line depreciation.
Low-value items are written off in the year of acquisition.
Liabilities are shown at the amounts payable.

4 Accruals
Accruals for pensions were valued for the first time in accordance with FAS 87. An increase of € 88,000 in comparison
to last year arises from the change in the valuation method.
C O M P A N Y
In the estimation of the Management Board, these accruals
will cover the potential tax burden arising from the commercial balance sheet.
The other accruals are made up as follows:
The tax accruals were essentially for corporate tax
(€ 592,000) and a solidarity surcharge (€ 32,000) related
to the prior year, and deferred taxes.
Given the incompatibilities between the depreciation of
buildings permissible under commercial law by the sinking
fund method and the linear depreciation prescribed by tax
law, differences may arise that affect corporate taxes.
€ 626,000 was added to accruals for deferred taxes in fiscal
year 2002. The overall accruals for deferred taxes were
€ 1,300,000 on the closing date.

Together with the Deutsche Shopping Aktiengesellschaft,
Hamburg, the company issued letters of undertaking to the
Bayerische Landesbank in Munich in 1999. These letters
of undertaking for a nominal € 84,363,000 concern the
granting of loans to the 100 % subsidiaries of Deutsche
Shopping Aktiengesellschaft, Hamburg for the acquisition
of the Stinnes Do It Yourself markets. The value of these
outstanding loans totaled € 75,983,000 as of the balance
sheet closing date.
The corporation submitted letters of comfort for subsidiaries and holding companies to the banks financing
the respective properties. This produced liabilities to the
amount of € 453,916,000 on the balance sheet closing
date.
52
Furthermore, a letter of comfort was issued in July 2002
for a leasehold contract with a 75-year term and a ground
rent of € 500,000 per annum.
To eliminate the excess debt of subsidiaries, letters of
postponement were issued that yielded an obligation of
€ 1,593,000 on December 31, 2002.
Liabilities from guarantees exist amounting to € 12,369,000.
7 Refunded taxes on income (2001: Taxes on income)

Other financial obligations arose from an interest swap
agreement signed in 1999. The corporation undertook
to pay interest at a rate of 4.93 % per annum up to
December 1, 2004 on an amount declining gradually from
€ 61,355,000 to € 53,031,000 on December 1, 2004.
In return, the corporation receives interest on the relevant
amount at the 1-month EURIBOR rate plus 0.5 %. The
interest swap serves as a hedge against the interest risk on
the loans granted to the subsidiaries of Deutsche Shopping
Aktiengesellschaft, Hamburg. The value of this interest
swap totalled € 56,517,000 as at the balance sheet closing
date.

Auditors’ report
We have audited the annual financial statements, together
with the bookkeeping system, and the management report
of the Company Deutsche Real Estate Aktiengesellschaft,
Bremerhaven, for the business year from January 1 to
December 31, 2002. The maintenance of the books and
records and the preparation of the annual financial statements and management report in accordance with German
commercial law are the responsibility of the Company’s
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on the annual financial statements, together with the
bookkeeping system, and the management report based
on our audit.
We conducted our audit of the annual financial statements
in accordance with § 317 HGB and German generally
accepted standards for the audit of financial statements
promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer in
Deutschland (IDW). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit such that misstatements materially
affecting the presentation of the net assets, financial
position and results of operations in the annual financial
statements in accordance with German principles of proper
accounting and in the management report are detected
with reasonable assurance. Knowledge of the business
activities and the economic and legal environment of the
Company and evaluations of possible misstatements are
taken into account in the determination of audit procedures.
The effectiveness of the accounting-related internal control
system and the evidence supporting the disclosures in the
books and records, the annual financial statements and
the management report are examined primarily on a test
basis within the framework of the audit. The audit includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall presentation of the annual financial statements
and management report. We believe that our audit provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Our audit has not led to any reservations.
In our opinion, the annual financial statements give a
true and fair view of the net assets, financial position and
results of operations of the Company in accordance with
German principles of proper accounting. On the whole
the management report provides a suitable understanding
of the Company’s position and suitably presents the risks
of future development.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
ANHANG DES KONZERNS
G E N E R A L I N F O R M AT I O N
The consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2002
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements
of the German Commercial Code (HGB) and German
Corporation Law (AktG).
The financial statements of the companies to be included
in the consolidation are based on uniform accounting and
valuation principles.
The financial statements as well as the lists of share ownership of Deutsche Real Estate Aktiengesellschaft, Bremerhaven and of the Group are files at the Bremerhaven District
Court, Department B, No. 1035 and published in the
Federal Gazette.
Associated companies are reported using the equity
method when Deutsche Real Estate Aktiengesellschaft
holds a 20 % to 50 % interest and exerts a substantial
influence. The other investments are reported at the cost
of acquisition.
In comparison with last year, the balance sheet total
increased by € 68,670,000 from the first-time inclusion of
Verwaltungsgesellschaft mbH & Co. Hugenottenallee KG,
Neu-Isenburg, as well as the increase in interest and related
change from equity to full consolidation for Carreé Seestrasse (GbR), Forum Seestrasse Grundstücksgesellschaft
mbH and GbR Heidelberg, Mannheimer Strasse.

The consolidated financial statements include the financial
statements of the holding company Deutsche Real Estate
Aktiengesellschaft, Bremerhaven and those of its direct
and indirect subsidiaries in which an interest of more than
50 % is held.
A total of 90 subsidiaries are included in the full consolidation (2001: 90). The companies newly included in 2002
comprise a newly founded company and three companies
that were changed from equity consolidation to full consolidation due to an increase in participating interest.
The only unconsolidated holdings remain those in
DRESTATE Objekte Hamburg, Neunzigste GmbH &
Co. KG, Hamburg and in BAKOLA Miteigentumsfonds I
Objekt Duisburg-Averdunk in which the Group holds a
70.07 % interest. These companies are of negligible significance for forming a true picture of the assets and financial
and earnings situation of the group as a whole.

The consolidated financial statements contain the financial
statements of all the companies included in the consolidation as of the same closing date.
The book value method was used for the capital consolidation, the acquisition costs being offset against the group’s
share in the subscribed capital of the subsidiary companies
at the time of first consolidation.
Positive differences resulting from the capital consolidation
are shown on the assets side of the balance sheet for those
financial assets where current value exceeds book value.
Any residual differences are reported as goodwill and
depreciated over 15 years corresponding to their future
economic benefit.
Passive differences resulting from capital consolidation are
shown as a separate item in the equity section.
An adjustment item was created for minority interests for
companies belonging to the subsidiaries.
The equity method was used to value interests in associated
companies as defined in Section 311 of HGB. The amount
of the purchase price (book value) exceeding the group’s
share in the equity of associated companies in the initial
consolidation is included under the item “Land and buildings, leasehold rights and buildings, including buildings on
third-party land”. The total negative equity on the balance
sheet closing date is € 5,349,000.
Assigned values in the financial statements of associated
companies that deviate from uniform Group regulations
are generally retained.

Internal Group loans and other receivables, liabilities,
sales turnover, (interest) charges and (interest) income
have been eliminated.
Profits on inter-group disposals of real estate and investments
have been eliminated. Tax deferrals have been created in
accordance with Section 306 of HGB.

The accounting and valuation principles are uniformly
applied throughout the Group.
For the profit and loss account, total cost type accounting
was used.
Intangible fixed assets are valued at acquisition cost less
scheduled depreciation.
The tangible fixed assets are reported at acquisition cost
less scheduled linear depreciation if applicable. The
depreciation is scheduled over the anticipated useful life.
Buildings are written down progressively over a 40-year
period uniformly throughout the Group. If the straightline method had been used, the depreciation charge
would have been higher.
Low-value items are written off in the year of acquisition.
The investments and shares in affiliated companies are
reported at acquisition cost or the value at closing date,
whichever is the lowest.
Receivables, other current assets and liquid assets are
valued at their nominal value or value at closing date,

4 Accruals
Accruals for pensions were valued for the first time in accordance with FAS 87. An increase of € 88,000 in comparison
to last year arises from the change in the valuation method.
€ 1,298,000 was added to accruals for deferred taxation
in fiscal year 2002. The overall accruals for deferred taxes
were € 2,240,000 on the closing date.
The other accruals are made up as follows:
Accruals for deferred taxation have been created in the
financial statements of Deutsche Real Estate Aktiengesellschaft and Deutsche Shopping Aktiengesellschaft and
included without adjustment in the consolidated financial
statements.
Given the incompatibilities between the depreciation of
buildings permissible under commercial law by the sinking
fund method and the linear depreciation prescribed by tax
law, differences may arise that affect corporate taxes.

Hamburg, letters of undertaking were issued in 1999 by
Deutsche Real Estate Aktiengesellschaft, Bremerhaven, to

swap totalled € 56,517,000 as at the balance sheet closing
date.

Auditors’ report
80
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of
the Company Deutsche Real Estate Aktiengesellschaft,
Bremerhaven, and its report on the position of the Company
and the Group for the business year from January 1 to
December 31, 2002. The preparation of the consolidated
financial statements and the group management report in
accordance with German commercial law are the responsibility of the company’s management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial
statements and the group management report based on
our audit.
Our audit has not led to any reservations.
We conducted our audit of the consolidated annual
financial statements in accordance with § 317 HGB and
the German generally accepted standards for the audit
of financial statements promulgated by the Institut der
Wirtschaftsprüfer in Deutschland (IDW). Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audit such that
misstatements materially affecting the presentation of the
net assets, financial position and results of operations in
the consolidated financial statements in accordance with
German principles of proper accounting and in the group
management report are detected with reasonable assurance.
Knowledge of the business activities and the economic
and legal environment of the Company and evaluations
of possible misstatements are taken into account in the
determination of audit procedures. The effectiveness of
the accounting-related internal control system and the
evidence supporting the disclosures in the consolidated
financial statements and the group management report
are examined primarily on a test basis within the framework of the audit. The audit includes assessing the annual
financial statements of the companies included in consolidation, the determination of the companies to be included
in consolidation, the accounting and consolidation principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements and the group management
report. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
KPMG Deutsche Treuhand-Gesellschaft
Aktiengesellschaft
Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give
a true and fair view of the net assets, financial position
and results of operations of the Group in accordance with
German principles of proper accounting. On the whole
the group management report provides a suitable understanding of the Group’s position and suitably presents the
risks of future development.
