”To some degree, the first half of the year developed in two directions. The underlying operations remained stable and rental income for comparable portfolios increased by 9.5 percent compared with the corresponding period last year. The economic letting ratio continued to increase and amounted to 96.3 percent (95.1) with the vacancy rate of 3.7 percent has predominantly been planned for as a consequence of projects in progress. SBB’s core is stable regardless of the current position in the business cycle. SBB’s property portfolio is characterized by its low risk for declining income and its superior capacity for increasing its income. That is reassuring.

At the same time, the second quarter was pervaded by discussions regarding the market’s view of SBB’s financial position. Several parallel processes have been launched to strengthen the company.”
