COMMENTS FROM THE CEO

Nyfosa likes a high tempo. In 2019 we delivered on what we promised – growing quickly and profitably. Based on several large transactions, and many small ones, we expanded our property portfolio by more than 25 percent during the year to about SEK 20 billion and signed agreements for another approximate SEK 4 billion. We also added to our highly skilled team, successfully developed our financing and ramped up our sustainability agenda in the business. Thus, we are on our way to achieveing our target of a property value of SEK 25 billion in 2020 and will then evaluate and communicate the next step for Nyfosa. We are in every way prepared to continue to create value.
