Comment from Hans Wallenstam, CEO:

”During the quarter, we have worked to further strengthen our balance sheet. Both the loan-to-value ratio and the equity/assets ratio are now 45 percent, which means even greater opportunities and freedom of action regarding our ambitious investment program with land acquisitions and new construction.”

”I am very satisfied with the result in the first half of 2021, where all the numbers are pointing in the right direction! Our income from property management increased by 11 percent and net operating income by 10 percent. Apart from this, we have created further value of approximately SEK 400 million in our new construction.”
