Catella AB – Interim Report January-March 2021

Report this content

Focus on long-term strategic changes and continued refining of properties during the first quarter.

“The first quarter is normally Catella’s weakest due to low transaction volumes and Q1 2021 was no exception, given the continued challenges presented by Covid-19 in terms of completing property transactions quickly and efficiently. Although operating profit is not satisfactory, we are taking significant strategic steps forward. The focus on the property segment continues while our cash position has been significantly strengthened through a new bond issue of SEK 1.25 Bn.

It takes time for strategic changes to translate into profits and it is important that we remain patient.I am convinced that our focus on properties and synergies, with an increased proportion of profit derived from Property Investment Management and Principal Investments, will be positive for Catella’s shareholders.” says Christoffer Abramson, CEO and President.
