Stock exchange listed Sparkassen  Immobilien  AG  (Bloomberg:  
SPI:AV,  Reuters: SIAG.VI) is happy to be able to report stable 
results for the first  quarter  of 2009 - significantly positive 
EBIT, a profit, and  increases  in  rental  income and total 
revenues.
Operating results: increases in revenues and rental income Sparkassen
Immobilien AG's revenues and rental income for the first  quarter  of
2009 grew to  EUR28.5m  and  EUR22.3m,  increases  of  6%  and  5%  
respectively compared with the same period last year.  There  were  
no  changes  in  property valuations in the quarter, since the annual
financial statements  for  2008  had already incorporated the results
of  up-to-date  external  valuations  (Q1 2008: EUR0.1m).  Other  
operating  income  increased  considerably,  from  EUR0.5m  to 
EUR1.4m, reflecting the significantly higher gross operating profits 
of  Hotels Marriott Vienna and Marriott Budapest. In the first  
quarter  of  this  year  no properties were disposed of, while in the
same period in 2008 there was  a  gain on property disposal of EUR5m.
This difference to the property disposals of  the first quarter 2008 
is also reflected in the EBIT and FFO.
Earnings performance: EBIT significantly positive EBITDA for the 
first quarter fell from EUR19.9m by 20% to  EUR15.9m.  Sparkassen 
Immobilien  AG's  EBIT  of  EUR13.5m  (Q1 2008:  EUR18.9m)   was   
significantly positive. Financing  costs  moved  from  EUR-7.5m  to  
EUR-10.2m.  Participation certificate expenses fell from EUR-3.8m to 
EUR-2.8m. EBT fell back from  EUR7.6m to EUR0.4m. Consolidated net 
profit after minority  interests  for  the  quarter ended 31 March 
2009 came  to  EUR0.5m  (Q1 2008:  EUR6.2m).  The  net  operating 
income (NOI) stands at EUR17.7m slightly below the value of  the  
first  quarter of 2008 (EUR17.9m), a decrease of 1%. The NOI margin 
(NOI / revenues)  stood  at 61%. Cash flow from operating activities 
increased from  EUR14.3m  to  EUR15.9m. Funds from operations (FFO) 
fell by 75%  to  EUR2.1m  (Q1 2008:  EUR8.2m).  This also reflects 
the difference of property disposals of the first quarter 2008.
Portfolio growth Development projects are progressing according to 
plan,  and  as  a  result  the Group's property portfolio in the past
quarter grew  to  EUR1.83bn.  Development projects, which are 
recognised at cost of acquisition and construction, made  up 
approximately 17% of the total. The standing portfolio by area  is  
made  up  of residential property (44%), office property (28%),  
commercial  property  (17%), hotels (7%) and other property (4%).  
More  than  half  the  properties  are  in Germany, 27% of the 
portfolio is  in  Austria,  and  the  remaining  22%  is  in 
Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Croatia, Romania and Hungary. With  the
exception of a single office property in EU  candidate  country  
Croatia,  all  Sparkassen Immobilien AG's properties are in EU 
states.
The occupancy rate of the standing portfolio  at  balance  sheet  
date  remained unchanged, at 91%. The average  gross  rental  yield  
(rent  divided  by  market value) for all countries together at 31 
March 2009 was 6.8%.
All development projects on schedule All ongoing development projects
of Sparkassen Immobilien AG  are  on  schedule, the progress of 
construction work is  very  satisfactory,  and  the  pre-letting
rates are excellent. For  the  shopping  centres  Sun  Plaza  in  Bucharest  and
Serdika Center in Sofia the pre-letting rates are over 80%. The Hotel Vysoká  in
Bratislava is also on  schedule,  will  be  completed  this  year  and  will  be
operated by Austria Trend Hotels. Together with  the  Viennese  projects  -  the
residential  and  office  building  in  Neutorgasse  and  the  student  hall  of
residence  in  Sechshauser  Strasse  -  the  development  projects,  which   are
scheduled for completion in 2009/2010,  will  return  significant  increases  in
rental income in the years to come.
s IMMO Share: market  price  up  18.7%  at  end  of  quarter,  core  
shareholder increases stake s IMMO Share's closing price at the  end 
of  the  first  quarter  of  2009  was EUR2.35, an 18.7% improvement 
since the  beginning  of  the  year,  and  a  very encouraging stock 
market performance. This positive trend and a marked  increase in 
trading volumes have continued in recent weeks. Currently (22 May 
2009),  the price is EUR4.22. This represents a discount of 52% to 
Net  Asset  Value  (NAV), which at 31 March 2009 was EUR8.8 compared 
with  EUR9.6  a  year  earlier.  The second core shareholder after 
Erste Group - Vienna Insurance  Group  -  exceeded the 10% 
notification threshold in April.  Sparkassen  Immobilien  AG  sees  
this increase in the stake as a long-term vote  of  confidence.  The 
combination  of these two  major  shareholders,  with  their  
networks,  their  size  and  their knowledge and experience of 
Sparkassen Immobilien AG's core markets is a  source of enduring, 
long-term strength for the Group and its future development.
Acquisition of new OMV Head Office in Viertel Zwei With the 
acquisition of OMV AG's new Head Office in Vienna and the  disposal  
of its old headquarters, Sparkassen Immobilien AG has demonstrated 
its  ability  to take advantage of special opportunities even in  a  
difficult  environment.  The new Head Office forms part of the 
Viertel  Zwei  development,  one  of  Vienna's most attractive office
locations, and  with  its  47,000 sq m  of  prime  office space 
provides ideal working  conditions  for  OMV  employees.  Both  deals
are expected to close in the coming months.
