Statement by CEO

Net new letting reaches record high
The first quarter has been characterised by an increase in the number
of tenants moving in, which, despite the relatively high number of
tenants moving out, contributed to net new letting rising to SEK 12
million. The occupancy ratio rose from 84 to 85 per cent during the
same period. Unrealised changes in the value of properties amounted
to SEK 294 million, a result of successful letting operations and, to
a certain extent, lower required returns on the market.”The strong economy is generating a high degree of activity in all
markets where Klövern has operations. I am pleased to report that we
have noted an increased demand for premises from both new and
existing customers”, comments Klövern’s CEO, Gustaf Hermelin.

Earnings
Net profit for the period totalled SEK 300 million (183). This
improvement is mainly due to an increase in unrealised changes in
value and a considerably larger portfolio of properties. Income
amounted to SEK 330 million (182) and operating surplus was SEK 206
million (103). The profit includes realised changes in value from
property sales at SEK 0 million (13) and unrealised changes in value
of properties at SEK 294 million (112). Net financial income was SEK
-69 million (-32), of which changes in value from interest caps and
interest swaps accounted for SEK 2 million (4). The deferred tax cost
for the period amounted to SEK 117 million (0).
