-  Profit before taxation was EUR33.0m (Q1 2012: EUR49.2m) due to the effect
   of largely unrealised, non-cash, foreign exchange losses of EUR22.6m
-  Group adjusted EPRA earnings per share increased by 4.7% to EUR0.09 
   (Q1 2012: EUR0.086)
-  EPRA Net asset value ("NAV") per ordinary share increased by 0.8% to
   EUR6.49(FY 2012: EUR6.44) after distributing a dividend of EUR0.05 per
   share. The value of the Group's 156 standing investments grew by 0.6% to
   EUR2.2bn, with over EUR1.0bn located in Poland

   due on 28 June 2013 to shareholders on the register at 21 June 2013 with an
   ex-date of 19 June 2013
-  EUR350 million successfully raised in April through the placing of a 3.7
   times over-subscribed unsecured seven year Eurobond bearing a 4.0% fixed
   coupon. Both Standard & Poor's and Fitch assigned a BBB- investment grade
   credit rating to the bond
-  Continued progress made at our Lublin Felicity development in Poland with
   the project now substantially pre-let at 87%, with an average lease length
   of approximately six years, and on target to open in early 2014


Commenting on the results, Rachel Lavine, CEO of Atrium European Real Estate,
said: "We have a made an encouraging start to the year, having delivered
growth in both gross and net rental income on an absolute and like-for-like
basis which has flowed through to growth in our EPRA earnings and net asset
values.  While we remain very mindful of the wider macroeconomic situation
across Europe, given the quality of our portfolio and expertise of our team, I
continue to believe that we are well placed to achieve our aims.

"I was also very pleased with the investor support we received for our bond
issue, which was well oversubscribed and raised EUR350 million.  This was a real
endorsement of the progress we have made at the company and has provided us with
substantial financial liquidity to support our strategy for growth."
