Comment by the CEO
Following successful completion of our refinancing in the second quarter 2015,
the third quarter 2015 has been marked by work on significant transactions where
DDM is in exclusivity. Some of these are expected to be signed before the end of
the year and contribute to a positive result for the full year 2015.

In tandem with these processes, we continue to work on our capital structure
raising additional funding for coming investments.

Gross ERC (Estimated Remaining Collections) increased by 1% during the third
quarter 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014.

Net collections in the third quarter of 2015 amounted to EUR 2.4M, a decrease of
8% compared to third quarter 2014, while net collections increased by 39% for
the first nine months in 2015, compared to the same period last year.

Collections in Russia temporarily slowed down during the third quarter due to
the weakness in the Russian ruble, but improved at the end of the quarter as the
ruble recovered. Collections in Poland have not been performing according to
initial forecast as legal collections have taken longer than expected. We are
actively working with our servicers to catch up to our timetable and do not
foresee any adjustments to the ERC relating to the Polish portfolios. Our
actions and efforts continue to result in strong collections in Romania and
Czech Republic. In addition, our investment in Hungary shows strong performance
and collections are outperforming the original forecast.

Cash EBITDA (net collections less operating expenses) during the third quarter
amounted to EUR 1.1M, a decrease of 32% compared to the same period 2014, while
increasing by 47% for 9 months 2015, compared to the nine months in 2014.

Cash flow from operating activities before working capital changes was EUR 1.8M
in the first nine months 2015, an increase of 194% compared to the same period
in 2014, while cash flow from operating activities in the third quarter 2015 was
negative EUR 2.2M, largely a reflection of the costs associated with the
refinancing undertaken at the end of the second quarter.

Market outlook
We remain positive on the outlook of DDM as we continue to see strong growth in
our pipeline of investment opportunities and reinforcement of DDMs position in
the market as a leading investor and manager of distressed assets. We currently
work on several significant transactions in exclusivity with the selling party
and we anticipate signing some of these before the end of the year, contributing
to a strong result for the full year 2015.
