Portfolio Analysis

The portfolio consists of ten core assets in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. For the ESG strategy and portfolio analysis, nine assets were considered and analysed vis-à-vis green building certification, their energy consumption and CO2 emissions. The hotel in Switzerland is not yet included in this analysis because EPH acquired it in 2024.

A Carbon Risk Estimation was performed for the portfolio (except QBC7/ Parking and the hotel in Switzerland) to evaluate the current performance and future stranding risk regarding greenhouse gas emissions. The analysis was based on available annual consumption data as well as estimations where no data was available. As our sustainability review focused specifically on our property portfolio, the key findings are set out below. Further information can be found in our Annual Report 2022.

Green building certifications: Seven out of the eight office and hotel buildings have DGNB Platin, DGNB Gold or LEED Gold certificates.
These certificates are an indicator of high quality and a certain level of sustainability in a property.

Market based assessment: Green electricity con- tracts would extend stranding risk beyond 20 years

Location based assessment: Based on consumption data and 1.5 °C pathway, no stranded assets until 2037

Due to the high performance of the portfolio and low CO2 emissions, no serious carbon risk was identified for the next 10 years. It is the target to improve data quality and reevaluate carbon risks regularly.

The below graph shows the development if no further action is taken. However, EPH will aim to improve its carbon footprint to avoid stranded assets at any time.
