Performance Indicators at Segment Level

The main key performance indicator at segment level remains Adjusted EBITDA. The Adjusted EBITDA Total reported at Group level is calculated, in turn, as the sum total of the Adjusted EBITDA figures for our segments. This means that Adjusted EBITDA forms the basis for the operational management of the four continuing segments after adjustments to reflect effects that do not relate to the period, recur irregularly or are atypical for business operations.

Adjusted EBITDA Total (continuing operations)

The Adjusted EBITDA Rental reflects the operating profit from residential property management. It can be broken down into three central components: Rental segment revenue, expenses for maintenance and operating expenses in the Rental segment. The latter include all expenses and income that do not relate to expenses for maintenance or rental income in the Rental segment.

The organic rent increase refers to the increase in the monthly in-place rent for the residential portfolio that was already held by Vonovia twelve months previously and rented as of the reporting date, plus the increase in rent resulting from the construction of new apartments and the addition of stories to existing properties. The monthly in-place rent per m2 gives information on the average rental income from the portfolio as of the relevant reporting date.

In addition to our operational earnings power, investments (modernization and new construction work) are decisive for the further development of our company.

We manage business activities in the Value-add segment using the Adjusted EBITDA Value-add.

We measure the success of the Recurring Sales segment using Adjusted EBITDA Recurring Sales. The Adjusted EBITDA Recurring Sales compares the proceeds generated from the privatization business with the fair values of properties sold and the related costs of sale. In order to disclose profit and revenue in the period in which they are incurred and to report a sales margin, the fair value of properties sold, valued in accordance with IFRS 5, has to be adjusted to reflect realized/unrealized changes in value.

The Adjusted EBITDA Development includes the gross profit from the development activities of “to sell” projects (income from sold development projects less production costs) less the operating expenses from the Development segment.

The Adjusted EBITDA Total is calculated as the sum total of the Adjusted EBITDA figures for our four segments (continuing operations). It expresses the overall performance of our sustainable operating business before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.

The key financial figures shown here are known as “non-GAAP” measures or alternative performance measures (APMs), i.e., key figures which cannot be taken directly from the figures in the consolidated financial statements according to IFRS. The financial performance indicators can, however, all be reconciled to the closest-possible key figure in the consolidated financial statements, or can be taken directly from the IFRS consolidated financial statements in the reconciliation.
