Takeover of Deutsche-Wohnen by Vonovia

Tip. At the end there is still the press review, the most important news from the real estate world, summarized. There are interesting things in the FAZ on the subject of “New life for houses of worship”, redesigning former churches, monument protection, and much more. You can find all real estate news directly here: Real Estate News.

The Süddeutsche Zeitung says “Vonovia does not have to become a rent shark”. The Handelsblatt even headlines “Share deals loophole: Why the merger of Vonovia and Deutsche Wohnen is triggering a tax debate” and the ARD warns “Merger plans alarm tenants”. But what is behind the deal?

Let’s first look at the two public companies and their ratios:

Vonovia Key Figures

• Largest residential group in Germany
• Market capitalization: 29.3 billion euros

German Housing

• 2nd largest residential group
• Market capitalization: 18.8 billion euros

Vonovia vs Deutsche Wohnen in comparison

How big is the difference between the two largest providers in Germany?

Difference (cf. Deutsche-Wohnen): 10.5 billion euros; 64.2 %.

Second attempt: Merger plans

Two attempts at a merger in the past had already failed. However, a majority of shareholders are now expected to agree to sell their shares to Vonovia. So far, the deal has failed because of the management of the Berlin-based Deutsche Wohnen Group. As soon as more than 50% of the shareholders of Deutsche-Wohnen sell their shares to Vonovia, the takeover will take place. A merger of the housing groups would represent the largest deal in German real estate history and thus create Europe’s largest housing group.

“I am very, very sure that a great many shareholders will accept this offer,” said Zahn (Deutsche-Wohnen)

Vonovia: Germany’s largest real estate group

Vonovia is one of the central companies in the German housing market. With around 1 million customers at 400 locations, the giant Group generated sales of 3.7 billion euros last year. The value has multiplied since the company was founded in 2001. The business is divided into three units: Letting, Extension and Sale of Real Estate, Construction, Leasing and Management.

Vonovia’s motto “We give people a home” will be even more present in Germany’s cities in the future. This is because the already large real estate company would increase its market share many times over by merging with Deutsche-Wohnen. To date, Vonovia’s portfolio spans 400 German locations and over 400,000 apartments. The large range of apartments can be found in cities such as Berlin, Düsseldorf, Cologne, Hamburg, Munich and Frankfurt am Main.

Facts and figures

• Main location: Bochum
• Locations: 400
• Turnover: EUR 3.67 billion (2019)
• Foundation: 2001
• Predecessor: Gagfah
• Customers: Approximately 1 million
