Scout24 SE: Annual General Meeting approves all resolution proposal by a
large majority

* 20% increased dividend of EUR 1.20 per share

  * Entire Supervisory Board newly elected - Andrea Euenheim joins as new
    member


* Renewed authorization for further share buybacks

Munich / Berlin, 5 June 2024

The Annual General Meeting of Scout24 SE, which took place today in Munich,
approved all resolutions proposed by the administrative bodies by a large
majority. In total, 81.33% of the voting share capital of Scout24 SE was
represented. The most important items on the agenda included the vote on the
20% increase in the dividend to EUR 1.20 per share, the election of all
Supervisory Board members for the next regular term of office and the
renewed authorization for further share buybacks.

Andrea Euenheim was elected as a new member of the Supervisory Board. She
succeeds Dr Elke Frank, who was not available for reelection. The other five
Supervisory Board members, including the current Chairman of the Supervisory
Board, Dr Hans-Holger Albrecht, Frank H. Lutz, Maya Miteva, Sohaila Ouffata
and André Schwämmlein, were re-elected for a period of four years. The
proportion of women on the Supervisory Board of Scout24 SE thus remains
unchanged at 50%. Andrea Euenheim is a proven HR expert with many years of
experience in listed US and German companies. She currently works as a
consultant for HR strategy and corporate management. Andrea Euenheim also
has extensive expertise in global mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and scaling
of fast-growing technology companies. At the constituent meeting of the
Supervisory Board following the Annual General Meeting, Dr Hans-Holger
Albrecht was re-elected as Chairman of the Supervisory Board.

The Annual General Meeting also granted discharge to the members of the
Management Board and Supervisory Board for the 2023 financial year and
approved the submitted remuneration report.

In his speech, CEO Tobias Hartmann reported on the strategic development of
the successful three-sided marketplace and the extensive product portfolio
for all market participants. "When we talk about the need for digitization
of real estate, we are at the forefront of driving the continued
transformation. ImmoScout24 was founded to bring listings to the internet.
Today, we are a digital market network with tailored services for seekers,
homeowners and agents. In the current market environment, agents are more
relevant than ever: They provide transparency and orientation to homeowners
and seekers, and we are fully committed to their future success."

In his speech, Dr Dirk Schmelzer, CFO of Scout24 SE, explained the
persistently successful financial and economic development of the Group. He
showed how the high-performance product portfolio and operating leverage are
driving particularly the profitability in all three business segments. This
is reflected in growing margins, rising earnings per share and increasing
dividends. He also addressed the topic of sustainability. "After the
important investment year 2022, we have returned to the path of increasing
profitability as planned. We want to continue this development in the coming
years. 2023 was a very successful financial year for Scout24 with
double-digit growth rates in revenue and earnings. And the ordinary
operating EBITDA margin has also shown significant growth since the fourth
quarter of 2022."

Dr Hans-Holger Albrecht, Chairman of the Supervisory Board, summed up the
new election of the Supervisory Board: "The very good development of Scout24
is a joint achievement of the Management Board, the Supervisory Board and
the entire workforce. Each individual member of the Supervisory Board is
committed to Scout24 in a special way. The intensive and constructive
cooperation in the Supervisory Board as a whole and in its committees is an
expression of this commitment. Dr Elke Frank has decided not to stand for a
further term of office for professional reasons. I would like to take this
opportunity to thank her warmly once again for her commitment over the past
few years. We are delighted to have found a successor in Andrea Euenheim,
who will also complement the existing expertise in the Supervisory Board. We
would like to express our gratitude for the renewed confidence in us to
continue to develop Scout24 successfully together with the Management Board
within the coming years - for customers, employees and shareholders."

Meeting are available on the Scout24 SE website at
