Köln (euro adhoc) - In 2007, VIVACON AG (ISIN DE0006048911) has had
its most active and profitable year with the highest net income in
company history. The company acquired more than 17,600 residential
units for an average acquisition multiple of 11.5x. In the same
period, VIVACON sold-on more than 13,100 residential units in total
with transaction volume of more than EUR 560m. The expected net
income will be within the range of the communicated company guidance
of EUR 54-58m.

At the beginning of the year 2008, the number of residential units
owned by VIVACON AG was already above 7,100 with an annual rental
income of more than EUR 22m. The majority of these units is currently
prepared for a disposal by the asset management of the Company. The
annualized ground lease income amounted to approximately EUR 14m at
the beginning of the year. The respective ground lease contracts are
fully German CPI indexed and have an initial maturity of 198 years on
average.

In 2008, VIVACON AG estimates to sell more than 16,000 residential
units with a total transaction volume of above EUR 700m. The expected
net income in 2008 will amount to more than EUR 60m. VIVACON also
reconfirms its longstanding accounting policy to only recognize gains
materialized through third-party transactions and refrains from
writing-up residential portfolios on the basis of appraisal reports.
The final results for the financial year 2007 will be published on
the 31st of March 2008.
