A clear focus gives good results

To briefly summarise the third quarter of 2024 for Wihlborgs, we continued to sign new leases with exciting customers, we continued to invest in new and existing portfolios and we continued to focus on our cash flow, which together, have generated good results over time.

Of the many recently signed agreements, there are a few I would especially like to highlight. At Ideon in Lund, we have let 5,700 square metres to the chip design company Arm, where a renovation will modernise the property and further increase its appeal in an area that includes Lund University as well as around 400 companies in fields such as connectivity, ICT and life science. In Lund we will also construct a new 9,000 square metre facility that will be leased by the electronics company NOTE in a 15-year agreement. We also signed new agreements in central Lund, including with the Swedish Prosecution Authority. They will lease 2,300 square metres in the second phase of Posthornet 1, where the first earth was turned just a couple of months ago. We also signed an agreement with the law firm Delphi in Malmö, where they will lease 1,600 square metres at the profile property Börshuset in Malmö once renovations are complete.

Overall, net lettings for the quarter amounted to SEK 28 million, with new lettings of an entire SEK 96 million, a record high for the third quarter, when the summer vacation period usually has a slight impact on volume. The rental value in like-for-like portfolios increased 6.1 percent in 12 months, which is well in line with the average indexation in Sweden and Denmark. New agreements were signed at higher rent levels than agreements that have been terminated, which supports a positive market rent trend.

Record rental income

Rental income increased 7 percent in the third quarter to SEK 1,043 million, which is the highest figure to date for income in a single quarter. Operating surplus also increased 7 percent to SEK 762 million, corresponding to a surplus ratio of 73 percent. Earnings were impacted by rent losses of SEK 6 million, which is slightly higher than in recent years.

CEO´s comments Market comments Income, expenses and profit Assets Sustainable business Liabilities and equity Financial reports Key figures Definitions Calendar Contact

But despite higher interest expense, income from property management increased 3 percent to SEK 445 million. The average interest rate in the loan portfolio at the end of September was 3.83 percent, compared with 4.09 at the middle of the year. This indicates that we have probably put the peak cost increase for our financing behind us. The decrease in underlying STIBOR/CIBOR had an effect in conjunction with somewhat lower bank margins. The decline in the average interest rate slowed in part because interest-rate swaps at low levels expired.

"Overall, net lettings for the quarter amounted to SEK 28 million, with new lettings of an entire SEK 96 million, a record high for the third quarter"

Changes in value of our properties for the quarter amounted to SEK 102 million. Changes in the underlying assumptions of the valuation models were minor, but lettings had a somewhat positive effect. The number of transactions in our markets remains low.

Top ESG rankings continue

We are pleased that again in 2024, Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark's ESG evaluation ranked us as number one among listed diversified property companies in Europe. Our work continues with environmentally certifying our properties, installing solar power systems and conducting supplier evaluations. Our focus is primarily on the goal of reducing our CO2 emissions, though in this area we are somewhat dependent on the actions of our district heating and cooling suppliers.

In the third quarter we signed an agreement with Handelsbanken for a sustainability-linked loan, where specific energy intensity targets and CO2 impact in Scopes 1, 2 and 3 will be evaluated annually. This will allow us to highlight how our operations impact the climate now and in the future.

Room for tenants to develop

The period of transition continues. Our operations are impacted by geopolitics, the economy, central banks and not least by how our tenants develop and change. The discussion about how to make the workplace appealing, creative and productive is livelier than ever. There is no one-sizefits-all solution, but Wihlborgs can help create spaces where our various tenants can identify the form their future development will take.

Our focus on workplaces in the Öresund region allows us to contribute to the region's growth while simultaneously benefiting from it.

Ulrika Hallengren, CEO

Market comments

According to the most recent report from the Swedish National Institute of Economic Research, the recession deepened in 2024, albeit with a cautious recovery at the end of the year. Lower inflation and gradually falling interest rates will likely lead to increased consumption among households during the latter part of the year. The forecast indicates that the Riksbank (the Swedish Central Bank) will gradually lower the policy rate to 1.75 percent by summer 2025. At the same time, the Economic Sentiment Indicator remained slightly below normal. When GDP begins to recover during the fourth quarter, sentiment is expected to improve.

The household confidence indicator indicates that households remain pessimistic about their current finances, but more households than normal expect conditions to improve within twelve months. According to Swedish Commerce's Trade Barometer (Sv: Handelsbarometer), there is a similar trend of strong future expectations within retail, even if consumption has yet to noticeably increase. The Silf Purchasing Managers Index fell from 52.4 in August to 49.1 in September. New orders were the primary reason for the downturn.

The central banks of both Sweden and Denmark cut their policy rates 0.25 percentage points in September, which resulted in an interest rate of 3.1 percent in Denmark and 3.25 percent in Sweden.

The rental and property market

According to SEPREF's (the Swedish Property Research Forum) consensus forecast for the third quarter of 2024, the prime rent in Malmö remained unchanged at SEK 3,300/m². The share of respondents expecting yield requirements to decline in the coming year increased from 21 to 37 percent. Cushman & Wakefield's report for autumn 2024 indicates rent increases to SEK 2,800/m² (+50) in Västra Hamnen and to SEK 2,900 (+100) in the old CBD. The vacancy rate increased in the new CBD (6 to 6.5 percent), in Hyllie (8.5 to 9 percent) and in Västra Hamnen (11 to 14 percent). The yield requirement for prime locations is expected to remain unchanged at 4.9 percent.

In the Greater Copenhagen area south/west (Hvidovre, Glostrup, Herlev and Ballerup), Colliers reported unchanged office rents of DKK 1,250/m² for the third quarter. The vacancy rate increased from 5.4 to 6.2 percent, while the investment yield rose from 5.5 to 5.75 percent. The investment market for offices remains weak, but some companies, such as LEGO, are making major investments. LEGO plans to establish office space for 1,500 seats in 30,000 m² in Copenhagen.

Turnover in the Swedish real estate market amounted to SEK 75 billion for the first three quarters (Colliers), up 15 percent year-on-year. In Denmark the transaction volume amounted to DKK 28 billion, up 4 percent.

Catena acquired DSV's logistics facility in Horsens, Denmark, with 315,000 m² NFA and a land area of 706,000 m². The sale-and-leaseback transaction was based on an underlying property value of DKK 3.3 billion and entails a 14-year lease. Catena also sold a logistics property in Brøndby for DKK 400 million (47,000 m² lettable area).

Changes in values of properties

Underlying assumptions are continuously discussed with external appraisers and in connection with refinancing of loans external valuations are made regularly. These aggregated data form the basis for the internal valuations. The valuation has meant a change in the property value by SEK 71 million (-915). Since the turn of the year, the assumptions about future indexation, market rent development, long-term vacancy, operating cost development and yield requirements have been largely unchanged. Positive net letting and completion of projects have had a positive impact on valuations, while maintenance investments and certain termination risks have had a negative impact.

2% 16 % 35% 24 % When valuing at fair value, a combination of yield-based method and local price method is applied, where analyzes of completed transactions in affected sub-markets are used to calibrate the parameters in the yield-based method. The value is deemed to correspond to the yield value calculated from, normally five-year, cash flow analyses. Ongoing new construction is valued as if the project had been completed reduced by the budgeted remaining project cost. Undeveloped land and other development objects are valued according to the local price method. The valuation methodology is unchanged compared to before. In the Annual Report for 2023 pages 82-83 and 106-107 there is a detailed description of the valuation of the investment properties.

Delphi will become a part of a new era for Börshuset in 2026 when the law firm moves in to the well-known historic building by Malmö Central Station. The new office extends across three floors and includes access to a roof terrace. With just over a year remaining of the ongoing renovation aimed at showcasing the building's original character and creating an attractive space for companies and the general public, Börshuset is 90 percent let.

Wihlborgs recently handed over the keys for a new top-modern facility (Rausgård 21) in Helsingborg to the cleantech company Nederman. In addition to warehouse, production and office facilities, the 25,000 square metre building includes an innovation centre to drive product development within industrial air filtration. It is also home to a test centre and a showroom where products and solutions will be exhibited.

Investments and current projects

Sustainable business

Results for the quarter

Wihlborgs' sustainability targets concerning energy consumption, direct CO2 emissions, environmental certification and supplier evaluations are followed up and reported on each quarter. Other sustainability targets are reported on an annual basis.

Energy consumption

Wihlborgs' target is to reduce energy consumption so that by 2025 it amounts to less than 85 kWh/m² Atemp annually. For comparisons to be relevant, actual consumption has been normalised using national degree days data for heating and, starting in 2024, for cooling in Sweden. Rolling 12-month energy consumption amounted to 83.9 kWh/m². Consumption for the period amounted to 53.9 kWh/m², a marginal increase compared with the year-earlier period.

There was a relatively large need for comfort cooling during the period, and with district cooling that has not been normalised using national degree days data, the energy intensity for the period amounted to 54.4 kWh/m² Atemp.

Wihlborgs is investing in solar power systems. The goal is for their total installed output to be 10 MWp by 2025. The current total output is 6.8 MWp. These facilities generated just over 2,000 MWh during the quarter, corresponding to 16 percent of Wihlborgs' total property electricity needs.

CO2 emissions

Wihlborgs has set a target maximum value for annual Scope 1 and 2 emissions of 1 kg CO2 e/m² NFA by 2025. These emissions declined to 0.69 CO2 e/m² NFA (0.82) during the period. The gas used for heating part of Wihlborgs' Danish portfolio had a relatively high mix of natural gas, which give rise to Scope 1 emissions. Converting some of these properties – Slotsmarken 10–18 and Baldersbuen 5 – from natural gas to

district heating has reduced the emissions of these properties. However, Wihlborgs needs district heating suppliers to continue to reduce emissions from their own production. In another geographic area of our Danish portfolio, emissions from the supplier increased, which had a negative impact on our total emissions. Emissions also increased at a Swedish supplier of district cooling. Altogether, this led to higher emissions than in the year-earlier quarter.

Wihlborgs sustainability reporting

Wihlborgs compiles an annual sustainability report prepared according to the Annual Accounts Act, GRI Standards, EPRA Sustainability Best Practice Recommendations (sBPR) and TCFD guidelines for reporting climate-related risks.

More information about our sustainability agenda: www.wihlborgs.se/en/about-us/sustainability/

Certifications

Wihlborgs' target is to certify 90 percent of the office space in the Swedish portfolio by 2025. During the period, a total of 20 existing properties were certified and the certified space increased from 71 to 85 percent. Certification of an additional nine existing properties is ongoing, corresponding to an additional 8 percent of office space in the Swedish portfolio.

As a rule, Wihlborgs certifies all new production according to the Sweden Green Building Council's (SGBC) certification system, Miljöbyggnad. During the year, Wihlborgs' new production projects received five preliminary certifications. A preliminary certification is verified after three years. Currently, four SGBC certified properties are being verified.

Supplier evaluations

To ensure that work performed by suppliers on behalf of Wihlborgs is aligned with the company's sustainability ambitions, we set requirements for environmental impact and social conditions. To ensure that suppliers meet these requirements, they are evaluated in a digital platform. We are currently evaluating suppliers with whom the company has framework agreements, which are therefore engaged frequently, and those believed to belong to industries that could involve greater risks. Dialogues and partnerships with current suppliers have resulted in an increase in the share of suppliers that are approved on all of our ESG requirements to 90 percent (78).

Focus in the quarter

The components of the ESG area – Environmental, Social and Governance – are to be integrated throughout Wihlborgs' business. Here we provide current examples of how we approach changes in our own operations and make a positive impact on the value chain and the sector.

Wihlborgs will report in accordance with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) for the 2025 financial year. Work is ongoing with preparing the business to meet the reporting requirement. A double materiality assessment has been completed in the quarter, and the sustainability aspects that are material for the business have been defined.

GRESB 2024

Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) is a benchmarking tool that measures and evaluates sustainability efforts at property companies and funds from an ESG perspective in order to give investors the necessary information for making an informed decision. GRESB's assessment is relative to other participants, and in this year's edition it was clear that the industry at large has made strides in sustainability and that the bar has been raised.

In GRESB's 2024 evaluation, Wihlborgs is number one in the category of listed diversified property companies globally (office/industrial). Within the management area ("GRESB Standing Investment Benchmark"), Wihlborgs received 88 points and retained five out of five possible stars. Within the project area ("GRESB Development Benchmark"), Wihlborgs increased its score from 91 to 97 and thereby its rating from four to five stars. A high GRESB rating indicates a high-quality sustainable property company.

Sustainable financing

Wihlborgs signed its first sustainability-linked loan with Handelsbanken, where the financial cost depends on the outcome of ESG goals. Unlike green loans, which are connected to a single property, this new loan is linked to Wihlborgs' overall ESG performance.

The majority of Wihlborgs' emissions stem from project operations and therefore fall under Scope 3, which makes it important that redevelopment and new-build projects have the lowest climate impact possible. These emissions are therefore included in one of the KPIs covered by the sustainability-linked loan. In addition to these emissions, Scopes 1 and 2 as well as the company's energy consumption are covered by the agreement. All KPIs and targets in the sustainability-linked loan are ambitious and in line with Wihlborgs' sustainability targets. This is how they remain relevant and drive our own company as well as the industry forward in the transition.

Social roadmap

In order to clarify social sustainability targets and ambitions for various stakeholder groups, Wihlborgs has created a social roadmap to provide both internal and external guidance.

A thorough survey of the social initiatives within the organisation revealed that they could be summarised in four sub-areas: tenants at Wihlborgs properties; workers in Wihlborgs' value chain; and those who live and work in the Öresund region – today and tomorrow. The next step in the social roadmap is to identify the areas with room for improvement and to actively work with improving them.

At Wihlborgs, employees help create workplaces where tenants thrive and feel good. The roof of Prisma (Ursula 1) in Oceanhamnen in Helsingborg includes a roof terrace with panoramic views of the strait and outdoor workspaces.

Net debt/EBITDA

Wihlborgs is one of Skåne's best places to work (rank 6). That's the result of Great Place to Work's first regional ranking of companies that stand out in terms of employee commitment (credibility, respect, fairness, pride and friendship). The choice to focus on Skåne as the first region is due to its growing economy, driven by innovation and entrepreneurship.

Significant risks and uncertainty factors

Wihlborgs' future development and ability to reach its operational goals are influenced by numerous risks and uncertainties. By systematically reviewing, analysing and managing these risks and uncertainties, it is possible to limit them and concurrently create the prerequisites for continued growth.

The risks assessed as having a significant influence on the Group's earnings trend and cash flow are the variations in rental income, property costs and interest-rates. The properties are measured at fair value with changes in value in the income statement resulting in positive and negative impacts on earnings during the year. Property valuation also impacts Wihlborgs' financial position and key metrics. The extent of changes in value is partly determined by Wihlborgs' own capacity, through alteration and upgrading of properties, as well as by leases and client structures, to increase the properties' market value, and partly by external factors that affect supply and demand in the property markets where the company is active. Property valuation should take in to account an interval of uncertainty, which in a functioning market, typically consists of +/-5–10% to reflect the inherent uncertainty of assumptions and estimates.

In addition to the above, risks also include financing risks. Wihlborgs is dependent on external loans to meet its undertakings and complete transactions. Risks are managed using Wihlborgs' financial policy, which stipulates objectives, guidelines and risk limits for Wihlborgs' financial activities. In pages 84–89 and 101–102 in the Company's 2023 Annual Report there is a comprehensive description of the risks facing the Group, how these are handled and a grading with regard to the assessed impact on the business and the probability that the risk will occur.

No significant changes to the company's risk assessment are made compared with what is described in the annual report for 2023.

Accounting policies

Wihlborgs follows the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) as endorsed by the European Union. The Interim Report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Information under IAS 34 p.16A is submitted in the notes and elsewhere in the interim report.

The Group applies the same accounting policies and valuation methods as in the most recent annual report. Wihlborgs assesses that none of the new or amended standards approved by the EU, or interpretations from the IFRS Interpretations Committee, that entered force after 1 January 2024, affect its results or financial position in any material sense. The Group applies the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 1, Supplementary Accounting Rules for Corporate Groups and the Parent Company applies RFR 2.

Events after the accounting period

1 October 2024 Wihlborgs sold the housing development rights for the Vasekaer 7 property in Denmark.

This interim report has been subject to review by the company's auditors.

Auditor's report

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Wihlborgs Fastigheter AB (publ) as of 30 September 2024 and the nine-month period then ended, and which can be found on pages 1-13 and 16-25 of this document. The board of directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Group, and with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Parent Company.

In the group's internal reporting, operations are divided into the market areas of Malmö, Helsingborg, Lund and Copenhagen. Each market area corresponds to an operating segment whose revenues and costs are followed up regularly by reporting to the CEO, who is the group's top executive decision maker. Group management follows up the operating profit and value changes in properties, other profit items are not distributed by market area. On the asset side, the real value of the properties is monitored. For a more detailed description of the segments, see the annual report for 2023 pages 45-67. Rental income includes customary charges for rent including indexation, extra charges for investments and property taxes. Service income includes all other supplementary charges like for example electricity, heating, water and other services to tenants.

The following financial targets have been established by the Board:

  • A return on equity that exceeds the risk-free interest rate* by not less than six percentage points, which for the beginning of 2024 corresponds to 8.00 percent.
  • An equity/assets ratio of no less than 30 percent
  • An interest coverage ratio of no less than 2.0
  • The loan-to-value ratio is not to exceed 60 percent

*) Risk-free interest rate is defined as the rate on a 5-year Swedish government bond

Definitions

Some of the financial metrics that Wihlborgs presents in the interim report are not defined in accordance with IFRS. Wihlborgs is of the opinion that these metrics provide valuable complementary information to investors and the company's management, since they enable evaluation of the company's performance.

As all companies do not apply the same approach to calculating these financial metrics, they are not always comparable to metrics used by other companies. Accordingly, these metrics should not be viewed as replacements for metrics defined under IFRS. On this page, definitions of metrics are presented that, with a few exceptions, are not defined in accordance with IFRS.

Key financial ratios

The key ratios are based on the statements of income, financial position, changes in equity and cash flow. Some of the historic data is compiled from the historical summary on page 21 in Wihlborgs' Interim Report.

Return on equity

Profit for the period as a percentage of average equity, excluding non-controlling interests. Average equity refers to the average of the opening and closing values for the respective period. In interim reports, the return is converted to its annualised value without taking account of seasonal variations. The ratio comprises a measure of the profitability in relation to shareholders' equity.

Return on capital employed (ROCE)

Earnings before interest expense, derivatives and taxes (EBIT) as a percentage of average capital employed. Capital employed is defined as total assets less non-interest-bearing liabilities and provisions. Average capital employed refers to the average of the opening and closing balances for each period. In interim reports, the return is converted to its annualised value without taking account of seasonal variations. The metric shows the return on the capital provided by shareholders and lenders without regard to interest.

Equity/assets ratio

Equity as a percentage of total assets at the end of the period. The ratio provides a measure of the financial strength of the company.

Interest coverage ratio

Income from property management, plus interest expense, divided by interest expense. The ratio measures the degree to which earnings can decline without jeopardising interest payments or, alternatively, how much interest expense can increase before income from property management becomes negative.

Loan-to-value ratio, properties

Borrowings as a percentage of the properties' carrying amounts. The ratio shows the degree of borrowing on the property portfolio.

Surplus ratio

The operating surplus, shown as a percentage of rental income. The ratio illustrates the proportion of rental income that remains after deducting property management costs.

Debt/equity ratio

Interest-bearing liabilitites relative to equity. Interest-bearing liabilities include borrowings, lease liabilities and any other interest-bearing liabilities. The ratio illustrates the relationship between borrowings and equity and, thereby, the gearing and financial strength.

Investment yield

The operating surplus shown as a percentage of the properties' average carrying amount. The average carrying amount refers to the average of the opening and closing values for the respective period. In interim reports, the yield is converted to its annualised value without taking account of seasonal variations. The ratio illustrates the yield on the property portfolio without taking account of its financing costs.

Net Debt / EBITDA

Borrowings minus liquid assets in the financial statements, measured at five measurement occasions (quarterly) in the last twelve months, divided by operating surplus minus central administration, rolling twelve months. The key figure shows the company's earning capacity relative to borrowings, net.

Exchange rate changes on rental income

When calculating the period's revenue increase, comparable currencies are used. As each period is converted to current exchange rates, exchange rate differences arise on rental income in comparison between two periods.

Share-related key ratios

Earnings per share for the period

Earnings for the period divided by the average number of shares outstanding. Earnings per share are the same before and after dilution. Definition according to IFRS.

Earnings per share before tax

Earnings per share before tax divided by the average number of shares outstanding.

EPRA EPS

Income from property management less the estimated tax payable on taxable income from property management divided by the average number of shares outstanding. Taxable income from property management is defined as income from property management less fiscal depreciation/ amortisation, direct deductions and none deductible interest rates. The effect of loss carryforwards is not taken into consideration.

Cash flows from operating activities per share

Cash flows from operating activities divided by the average number of shares outstanding.

EPRA NDV - Net disposal value, per share

The closing balances for equity divided by the number of shares at the end of the period.

EPRA NRV - Net reinstatement value, per share

The closing balances for equity following the reversal of interest-rate derivatives and deferred tax according to the balance sheet, divided by the number of shares at the end of the period.

Dividend yield per share

Proposed dividend as a percentage of the year-end share price.

Total yield per share

Share price performance plus actual dividend relative to the share price at the start of the year.

P/E ratio I, multiple

Market price per share divided by earnings per share. In interim reports, the ratio is converted to its annualised value without taking account of seasonal variations.

P/E ratio II, multiple

Market price per share divided by EPRA RPS per share. In interim reports, the ratio is converted to its annualised value without taking account of seasonal variations.

Average fixed interest period

Time remaining until the interest on all interest bearing debts in average has been adjusted.

Average loan maturity

Time remaining until an average of all interest bearing debts has been refinanced.

Property-related key figures*

These key figures are based on the property table on page 9. The table shows the estimated rental value, rental income and property expenses on an annualised basis with an unchanged property portfolio, based on the contract stock on the first day after the end of the period.

Rental value Rental income plus estimated market-level rents for unlet space.

Estimated investment yield Operating surplus as a percentage of the carrying amount for the properties at the end of the period.

Rental income per m2 Rental income on an annualised basis divided by lettable area.

Operating surplus per m2 Operating surplus divided by lettable area.

Economic occupancy rate Rental income as a percentage of rental value.

Estimated surplus ratio Operating surplus as a percentage of rental income.

Net Lettings New lettings during the period less terminations to vacate.

Like-for-like

Excludes properties that both current and comparative period are classified as projects/land, aquired or sold.

*) These key figures are operational and are not regarded as alternative key ratios according to ESMA's guidelines.

Four reasons to invest in Wihlborgs

Operating in an attractive region

1 Our home region of Öresund has strong population growth, a young and well-educated demographic, world-class technological development, good commuting possibilities and shrinking distances to the continent through, for example, the coming Fehmarn Belt connection. These are the factors that make businesses grow and attract global corporations to locate their regional headquarters here.

Building value-generating clusters

2 Wihlborgs' properties are located in selected sub-markets that provide growth and development potential. We create dense clusters of properties, industries and networks that enable tenants to relocate, grow and develop within our portfolio. We know the market and the region well and can quickly identify new needs and trends. Wihlborgs is the leading property company in Malmö, Lund and Helsingborg.

Long-term and responsible owner

3 Wihlborgs is a long-term owner that develops and manages properties under its own auspices with a high level of service and local suppliers. We invest in flexible premises that can be adapted according to tenants' changing needs, with stringent requirements for quality and sustainability, while also ensuring low operating costs. We take the economy, people and the environment into account in all our decisions, and have recognised low ESG risk. Our goal is to halve scopes 1, 2 and 3 emissions by 2030, and to have net zero CO2 emissions by 2045.

Stable growth and financing

4 Wihlborgs has grown robustly for many years and raised the dividend for 18 consecutive years. This was made possible by our focus on continuously improving cash flow. Our strong operating profit relative to our borrowing creates good financial stability, which allows us to maintain an attractive portfolio of ongoing and planned projects, and to capture new business opportunities as they arise.
