Comment from Hans Wallenstam, CEO

“We are generating considerable surplus value through our work on building apartments. We are also creating value through conversions and effective management. Almost 80 percent of the increase in value during the quarter came from our new construction projects.”

“Happily, we reported net asset value growth on a rolling full-year basis of 17.7 percent during the period, a fantastic performance that is above our goal of an average net asset value growth of 10 percent per year.”

“The result shows that the operations are continuing to perform very strongly. Income from property management during the period amounted to SEK 512 million, an increase of 10 percent. We have a strong financial position with a low loan-to-value ratio of 44 percent, and a high equity/assets ratio of 43 percent. We feel very satisfied with the result and performance to date!”
