Statement by the CEO

Strong development of profit”We can present a strong result for the first nine months of the
year, not least for the third quarter. The occupancy ratio has
increased by one percentage point for the fourth consecutive quarter
to 87 per cent. This reflects the good performance of our
organisation and shows that it is going well for our customers”, says
Klövern’s CEO Gustaf Hermelin.

The increase in value of the property portfolio results from new
letting and rising property prices. Property values are increasing,
particularly in Kista, due to the improvement in the state of the
market and decreasing vacancies.

The acquisition of 43 properties in Karlstad and Västerås strengthens
the organisation and the market position at these places and, after
sale of nine properties, with transfer of possession in the fourth
quarter, 99 per cent of the property portfolio will be concentrated
to Klövern’s ten priority markets.”We have now even greater ability to meet customers need for premises
and services at these locations, close to the customer and with
commitment”, says Klövern’s CEO Gustaf Hermelin.

Profit
Net profit for the period amounted to SEK 934 million (427). This
improvement is mainly due to increased unrealised changes in value
and a considerably larger property portfolio. The profit includes
realised changes in value from divestment of properties of SEK 126
million (24) and unrealised changes in property values of SEK 735
million (179). Net financial income was SEK -162 million (-97), of
which the change in the value of financial instruments and securities
accounted for SEK 55 million (19).
