Sirius to acquire defence anchored business park near Munich for €43.7 million
Sirius Real Estate, the leading owner and operator of branded business and industrial parks providing conventional space and flexible workspace in Germany and the U.K., has notarised the acquisition of a business park in Feldkirchen, Germany, for €43.7 million (including acquisition costs).
Located on the outskirts of Munich, Bavaria, the site has a gross lettable area of 27,180 sqm. The park is well connected with a nearby S-Bahn train station and is a 20-minute drive from central Munich. It is also located less than a 10-minute drive from Sirius' Grasbrunn Business Park, providing operational synergies.
Feldkirchen business park currently generates €3.4 million of annualised rent roll per annum and is 94% occupied with a 7.8 year weighted average unexpired lease term, albeit there are several smaller tenants whose leases are shorter and offer potential for upside from their current rental levels. The purchase terms reflect an EPRA Net Initial Yield of 7.8%.
The asset is anchored by Excelitas, a leading designer and manufacturer of high-performance optical and photonic solutions for defence, aerospace, medical and industrial applications, which occupies 72% of the park on a lease with 10.2 years to expiry. Other tenants include OVOL Papier, a subsidiary of global paper conglomerate Japan Pulp & Paper Group, the IWV Institut für Wirtschaftsmathematik and a subsidiary of Bosch.
Following this transaction, Sirius will have acquired around €340 million of income-producing assets across the U.K. and Germany, so far in 2025. This has included properties in Dresden, Lübeck, Munich, Reinsberg, Monchengladbach, Hartlebury, Bedford, Oldham and Chalcroft.
Andrew Coombs, Chief Executive Officer of Sirius Real Estate, commented: "In our first half trading update earlier this month we noted that we expected our acquisition programme to be more weighted towards Germany in the last six months of our financial year and this transaction underscores that sentiment. Feldkirchen is an asset which benefits from strong existing fundamentals and offers future potential for our platform to exploit. Munich has the strongest economy of any German city and is one of Germany's most resilient and sought after logistics hubs, being home to a strong and diverse range of industries spanning everything from manufacturing, finance, media and technology sectors.
We have identified a number of ways to improve the site and to asset manage the rental tone up over time, while Feldkirchen also offers operational synergies, being in close proximity to our existing asset at Grasbrunn. The acquisition also aligns with our strategic focus on positioning ourselves to benefit from increased defence spending, being anchored by a high quality manufacturing tenant that serves this sector."

About Sirius Real Estate
Sirius is a property company listed on the equity shares (commercial companies) category of the London Stock Exchange and the premium segment of the main board of the JSE Limited. It is a leading owner and operator of branded business and industrial parks providing conventional space and flexible workspace in Germany and the U.K. As of 31 March 2025, the Group's portfolio comprised 145 assets let to 10,477 tenants with a total book value of over €2.7 billion, generating a total annualised rent roll of €221.4 million. Sirius also holds a 35% stake in Titanium, its €350+ million German-focused joint venture with clients of AXA IM Alts.
The Company's strategy centres on acquiring business parks at attractive yields and integrating them into its network of sites - both under the Sirius and BizSpace names and alongside a range of branded products. The business then seeks to reconfigure and upgrade existing and vacant space to appeal to the local market via intensive asset management and investment, and may then choose to refinance or dispose of assets selectively once they meet maturity, to release capital for new investment. This active approach allows the Company to generate attractive returns for shareholders through growing rental income, improving cost recoveries and capital values, and enhancing returns through securing efficient financing terms.
