Branicks Group AG: Top ESG ratings once again in the Morningstar Sustainalytics ranking and CDP scoring

•    Sustainability as a core element of the business model and corporate strategy

•    Morningstar Sustainalytics: Branicks ranks among the best in a global peer comparison

•    Two further commercial properties in Offenbach recently certified to BREEAM

Frankfurt am Main, 24 March 2026. Branicks Group AG (“Branicks”), ISIN: DE000A1X3XX4, one of Germany’s leading listed property companies, sees its ESG focus – which is firmly embedded in its business model and overall corporate strategy – validated by once again securing top positions in two leading international rankings. Once again this year, Branicks ranks among the leading companies in the global ESG risk rating compiled by the analysis firm Morningstar Sustainalytics. Its excellent rating from previous years has also been confirmed in the global CDP scoring.

The recertification of two commercial properties on Berliner Straße in Offenbach confirms the ongoing operational work to upgrade properties in Branicks’ portfolio and under its management.

In the latest Sustainalytics ranking, Branicks ranks among the top 2% of the 15,000 companies assessed in a global comparison across all sectors. Furthermore, Branicks ranks among the top 6% in the Real Estate Industry category and has been recognised as an Industry ESG Leader 2026 and a Sustainalytics Regional ESG Leader 2026.

In the CDP rating (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project), which assesses companies’ environmental transparency and performance in the areas of climate change, water security and forests using grades from A to D, Branicks retained the overall grade of B from the previous assessment cycle. In sub-categories such as Business Strategy, Governance and Risk & Opportunity Disclosure, Branicks received an A grade.

“Our excellent results in both rankings are a highly encouraging endorsement of our systematic and ongoing work, in which measurability and transparency are key elements. For us, this result is both a confirmation and an incentive,” said Lukas Brunert, Managing Director of Branicks Onsite GmbH.

Aligning business activities with ESG criteria has been part of Branicks’ strategic approach for well over ten years and is firmly embedded in Branicks’ business model and corporate strategy. The green building ratio in the commercial portfolio stood at 52.9% in the 2024 financial year. Top accolades for Branicks properties, including prestigious sustainability certifications such as DGNB, LEED and BREEAM, provide further evidence of the portfolio’s ongoing development towards efficiency and sustainability.
