Heidelberg / Frankfurt am Main, April 24, 2008: IFM Immobilien AG, an
investor and project developer that is particularly engaged in commercial
real estate, with an emphasis on office and downtown retail uses, turned in
a dynamic performance in 2007 and briskly expanded the portfolio of
properties of IFM group. As of December 31, 2007, the portfolio had grown
to EUR 228 million, an 81% increase over a year earlier. The Net Asset
Value (NAV) per share rose from EUR 10.92 at 31 December 2006 by 52% to EUR
16.56 at the end of 2007. IFM Immobilien AG released its 2007 financial
statements and consolidated financial statements today on the Internet
(www.ifm.ag).

Said Georg Glatzel, CEO of IFM Immobilien AG: 'IFM has performed very well
since it went public in May 2006. We've invested in high-quality properties
in select locations, and in just a short time have built up a portfolio
with great potential for appreciation. The 2007 figures show very clearly
how attractive our business model is – investing in carefully selected
commercial properties and new construction, upgrading them through active
project development, and then positioning them in the market with the
assistance of innovative marketing concepts. In the future, IFM intends to
also move into selling properties to realize the appreciation it creates,
and will thus operate in the entire real estate cycle.'

Group revenue and earnings performance in 2007
• Consolidated revenue, which comes primarily from rental income, rose from
the 2006 figure of EUR 4.3 million to EUR 9.3 million in 2007. The sharp
increase derived in part from full occupancy at the WestendFirst property
in Frankfurt am Main’s West End, as well as from new projects acquired in
2007: GutenbergPark in Mainz, Maxxon in Eschborn, the Office Tower in
Darmstadt, Kureck in Wiesbaden, and Feldbergstrasse in Frankfurt am Main.

• The gain on the fair valuation of investment properties more than
tripled, to EUR 5.2 million, compared to EUR 1.6 million in 2006. This item
represents properties held to generate rental income and/or for purpose of
appreciation. The recognized gain came from the WestendFirst property in
Frankfurt am Main and GutenbergPark in Mainz. It reflects IFM’s business
model, which aims for capital appreciation by actively working to develop
projects in the real estate portfolio.

• The operating profit (earnings before taxes) came to EUR 4.3 million,
compared to EUR 0.9 million for the prior year.

• The consolidated profit after taxes and minority interests rose from EUR
0.4 million to EUR 5.1 million, or by a factor of more than eleven against
the prior year.

Consolidated balance sheet performance in 2007
• Consolidated total assets grew 61.3%, from EUR 161.6 million at December
31 2006 to EUR 260.7 million at the end of 2007.

• IFM systematically developed its portfolio, with new investments in
attractive buildings and land. Investment property, which serves to
generate rental income and/or for purposes of appreciation, increased by
EUR 56.8 million as a consequence, to EUR 138.8 million (Dec. 31, 2006: EUR
82.0 million). The value recognized for properties under development rose
to EUR 80.6 million (Dec. 31, 2006: EUR 44.0 million).

• At the reporting date, the Group maintained a solid equity ratio of 36%
(Dec. 31, 2006: 55%).

Change of stock-exchange segment
On April 16, 2008, IFM decided to change from the Frankfurt Stock
Exchange’s Open Market (Entry Standard segment) to the regulated market
(Prime Standard segment). The securities prospectus for admission is,
subject to its approval by the German Federal Financial Services
Supervisory Authority (BaFin), planned for release today, April 24. The
company’s stock is expected to be admitted to the regulated market on April
29. The Company expects the change to Prime Standard, with its expanded
transparency requirements, to strengthen its standing in the capital
market, especially among international investors.

Outlook for fiscal 2008
The IFM Immobilien Group is planning to grow its real estate portfolio
further, possibly also through joint ventures with partners. The Executive
Board has reaffirmed its goal of increasing the portfolio, including
ongoing project developments, to about EUR 500 million in the mid-term.
Besides the Rhine/Main/Neckar metropolitan regions, the Company plans to
acquire additional attractive properties in the major business regions of
Munich, Cologne/Düsseldorf, and Hamburg, so as to diversify its property
portfolio regionally.

One highlight of the current year will be the completion of the Romeo &
Julia property, very close to the landmark WestendFirst property in
Frankfurt am Main. The new property is undergoing a complete renovation,
and marketing to prospective tenants has already begun.

On the basis of rising rental income, IFM assumes that the value of its
portfolio will grow further. In all, the Executive Board believes the Group
is well equipped to continue its pattern of dynamic growth.
