NOTES TO EDITORS
About Sirius Real Estate
Sirius is a property company listed on the main market and premium segment of the London Stock
Exchange and the main board of the JSE Limited. It is a leading operator of branded business parks
providing conventional space and flexible workspace in Germany and the UK. The Company's purpose
is to create and manage optimal workspaces that empower small and medium-sized businesses to
grow, evolve and thrive. Sirius seeks to unlock the potential of its people, its properties, and the
communities in which it operates, so that together we can create sustainable impact, and long-term
financial and social value.
The Company's core strategy is the acquisition of business parks at attractive yields, the integration of
these business parks into its network of sites under the Company's own name as well as offering a
range of branded products within those sites, and the reconfiguration and upgrade of existing and
vacant space to appeal to the local market, through intensive asset management and investment. The
Company's strategy aims to deliver attractive returns for shareholders by increasing rental income and
improving cost recoveries and capital values, as well as by enhancing those returns through financing
its assets on favourable terms. Once sites are mature and net income and values have been optimised,
the Company may take the opportunity to refinance the sites to release capital for investment in new
sites or consider the disposal of sites in order to recycle equity into assets which present greater
opportunity for the asset management skills of the Company's team.
Sirius also has a venture with clients represented by AXA IM Alts. Titanium was originally formed in
2019 through the acquisition by AXA IM Alts, on behalf of its clients, from Sirius, of a 65% stake in five
business parks across Germany. Sirius retained the remaining 35%. The venture has added significantly
to its portfolio and continues to seek to grow primarily through the acquisition of larger stabilised
business park assets and portfolios of assets with strong tenant profiles and occupancy. As well as its
equity interest, Sirius acts as operator of the assets in the venture, on a fee basis. The strategy of the
venture has been clearly defined so that the venture does not conflict with Sirius's existing business,
which continues to focus on the acquisition of more opportunistic assets for its wholly owned
portfolio, where it can capitalise on its asset management expertise to maximise utilisation of the
space, grow occupancy and improve quality of the tenants.
In November 2021, Sirius Real Estate announced and completed the acquisition of BizSpace, a leading
provider of regional flexible workspace in the UK. BizSpace offers light industrial, workshop, studio
and out of town office units to a wide range of businesses across the UK and the acquisition therefore
provided Sirius with a unique opportunity to enter, immediately and with scale, an under-served new
market for Sirius through a one-step acquisition of an established platform. It provides the Group with
a high-quality portfolio, offering significant organic growth potential in rental pricing in a UK market
characterised by supply constraints. The BizSpace business is also highly complementary to Sirius'
existing platform, allowing for meaningful operational and financial synergies to drive value creation
for Sirius shareholders.
