MPC Capital AG publishes half-year financial report

- Confirmation of preliminary figures announced on 8 August 2016
- Further expansion of real estate and infrastructure asset classes
- Outlook confirmed for full year 2016

Hamburg, 31 August 2016 - The asset and investment manager specialising in
real asset investments and investment products, MPC Capital AG (Deutsche
Börse Entry Standard, ISIN DE000A1TNWJ4), today publishes its financial
report on the first half of 2016. The report confirms the preliminary
figures published on 8 August 2016.

In light of its healthy project pipeline, the Management Board expects the
MPC Capital Group to record year-on-year revenue growth of at least 10% for
the 2016 financial year.

The company aims to increase the assets under management (AUM) by the MPC
Capital Group to up to EUR 10 billion in the medium term. The objective is
to achieve this growth with the MPC Capital Group's new strategic focus on
new, high-margin business, particularly in the real estate and
infrastructure segments. In the medium term, this is expected to lift the
average AUM margin to over 1% of the assets under management by the MPC
Capital Group.

The Management Board expects this trend to continue to stabilise in the
2016 financial year and is working to further improve the efficient
utilisation of the MPC Capital Group's existing infrastructure by
leveraging economies of scale.

Implementing projects in the pipeline generally requires co-investment by
MPC Capital AG. In this context, MPC Capital is currently reviewing various
financing alternatives, including the implementation of a capital increase
of about 25% of MPC Capital's current share capital. This would enable MPC
Capital to take advantage of further opportunities to expand its assets
under management as well as to increase the free float of the company's
shares.
