During Vonovia's takeover of Deutsche Wohnen in 2021, NAV was used as a valuation method.

Vonovia and Deutsche Wohnen could also employ just NAV during the DPLTA. Since Deutsche Wohnen and Vonovia had a NAV of EUR 42.01 and EUR 44.08 respectively at the end of June 2024, an exchange ratio of 1:1 is possible.

'''''Vonovia needs to increase its stake to 95% to achieve a squeeze-out of minority shareholders'''''
The best entry-point for Vonovia [[Deutsche Wohnen:Minority shareholder buyout (DPLTA)#What Happens If Some Shareholders Don.27t Take Part in DPLTA.3F|squeeze-out]] of Deutsche Wohnen minority shareholders would be 95% of voting rights. At 90%, it can only initiate merger squeeze-out which will need merging with Deutsche Wohnen. Since merger agreement and profit and loss agreement (PLTA) won't work hand-in-hand, general corporate squeeze-out which only requires 95% voting rights would be viable. To attain 95% voting rights, Vonovia would have to increase its shares at Deutsche Wohnen by 32 million, another reason it should offer an attractive exchange price.
