Peach Property Group, an investor specialising in the management of residential property in Germany, has launched a further measure to strengthen its capital structure as part of its growth strategy. As part of a capital increase, the anchor shareholder Kreissparkasse Biberach subscribed to 164,00 new shares in the form of a subordinated mandatory convertible bond. In addition, Kreissparkasse Biberach will acquire another 11.000 shares directly from the holdings of Peach Property Group.

The subordinated convertible bond has a volume of CHF 5.4 Mio. and a term until 14 April 2020. As of this date, the conversion into 164,000 registered shares of Peach Property Group AG (ISIN 11853036/CH0118530366) takes place. The conversion price amounts to CHF 33.04 and is based on the weighted average of the last 30 trading days. Following the conversion and the transfer of the additional shares, Kreissparkasse Biberach's stake in the Peach Property Group will increase from the current 7.7 percent to 10.9 percent - based on the number of shares registered in the commercial register.

As of 2 October 2019 Peach Property Group AG has already temporarily reduced the conversion price of the 3% convertible hybrid bond listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange (ISIN 38195225/CH0381952255) with a nominal volume of CHF 59 million by CHF 1 from CHF 29.50 to CHF 28.50. The reduction is valid until 18 October 2019. After this deadline, the regular conversion price of CHF 29.50 will apply again. The conversion period at the regular conversion price ends on 30 December 2020.

The capital increase together with the reduced conversion price of the convertible hybrid bond comprise the two equity measures in connection with the acquisition of more than 3,650 apartments in Germany with an expected closing by the end of 2019. No further equity measures are planned; the remainder of the acquisition financing will be provided through additional debt.

After completion of the purchase, Peach Group's residential portfolio will increase by 40 percent to approximately 12,450 units with a market value of approximately CHF 1.1 billion. The net asset value (NAV market value) per share is expected to increase to CHF 39.00 (fully diluted) or CHF 45.00 (undiluted) upon completion of the portfolio purchase.

Dr. Thomas Wolfensberger, Peach Property Group's CEO, commented: "We are very pleased with this reinforced commitment by our anchor shareholder, Kreissparkasse Biberach. It is a strong expression of confidence in our growth strategy. As a result of the current portfolio acquisition in Germany, we will exceed the one billion mark in the value of our portfolio by the end of 2019 and achieve a leap in rental income and net asset value."
