CEO CEO STATEMENT

Real estate in Smålandish with increasing results

Stars are aligned for Nivika right now. Interest rates, which have been at high levels are gradually coming down and the Company's key ratios are strengthening, the net loan to value is low and in Nivika's home markets there are many interesting deals to evaluate. Nivika believes that a local presence and proximity to both customers and properties creates the most efficient organization and generates the best business. We have so far this year acquired properties for about half a billion SEK. In connection with this interim report, Nivika's quarterly reporting will be aligned with the calendar year and the company will be easier for analysts and investors to compare with the rest of the industry, which will increase the visibility of Nivika.

Increasing rents and good cost control creates increasing results

Niclas Bergman, CEO The financial development for the fifth quarter shows financial stability and that we gradually increase revenues and earnings. This is a sign of strength and proof that Nivika is doing the right things and that the business model works. Rental income increased by 10 percent to 178 MSEK (161), net leasing was +3 MSEK in the quarter. Net operating income increased by 16 percent to 139 MSEK (120). The increased operating net was mainly driven by increased revenue and good cost control. The profit for the quarter of 5 MSEK (-129) includes unrealized changes in the value of property portfolio of 29 MSEK (-192) and unrealized changes in value of interest rate derivatives of -69 MSEK (-2).

The property portfolio amounts to 11.5 billion SEK (10.6) as of September 30, 2024 with a total of current rental value of 766 MSEK. The property portfolio consists, at the end of the period, of 61 percent commercial properties and 39 percent residential, in terms of property value.

Equipped for growth

In the last two years, Nivika has carried out a major restructuring where the Company has had a cost focus and optimized the balance sheet. This means that now when the interest rates are coming down, the Company is well equipped for continued growth. The Company has after the end of the period successfully issued a green, unsecured, bond, to further strengthen its cash position.

Primarily, Nivika is looking for high-yielding properties within the Company's home markets and sees increasing activity and several interesting objects mainly in light industry. Nivika is also working on streamlining the portfolio, has completed disposals and remains open to selling properties that are not in line with Nivika's strategy. The Company operates in Småland and the surrounding area, an area in Sweden known for Gnosjöandan, entrepreneurship and many skilled industrial companies that manage to run their business regardless of the economic climate.

Growth in the geography is driven by good communications, with the three main roads E4, highway 40 and E6, forming the West Swedish triangle. Nivika has successfully, together with Värnamo Municipality, built an industrial cluster at the South Swedish junction also known as Bredasten. It is located next to the E4 where the European highway is crossed by national road 27, which connects Karlskrona with Gothenburg via Växjö. In a short time, the area has become popular and is now the most important industrial area in the region, and several international companies have chosen Bredasten for their Swedish operations. Nivika has learned a lot from the establishment of Bredasten and is actively looking for similar areas within the West Swedish Triangle to duplicate the business model elsewhere within south-west Sweden.

Continued focus on earnings per share and cash flow

The key interest rate cuts that the Riksbanken, Sweden's central bank, implemented and are expected to continue during the winter will contribute positively to Nivika's earning capacity and earnings per share. This, combined with improved net operating income and profitable growth, will further strengthen the Company's key figures and position us even more as an attractive company to own and do business with.

I look forward to the end of the year and 2025 with confidence.

Future project portfolio, share of existing cashflow

Diversified property portfolio with focus on long rental agreements

Lease portfolio

Nivika aims to sign long-term leases with its tenants. With a diversified maturity structure combined with diversification across many different tenants, customer sizes and industries, the risk of vacancies and rental losses is reduced. As at the end of September 2024 contracted annual rent, including residential, amounted to SEK 734 million (634) and the weighted remaining lease term, excluding residential and parking, was 5.8 years (4.8).

Lease maturity structure, MSEK

Leasing

The long-term targets are the economic occupancy rate for commercial properties shall amount to at least 90 percent and for residentials amount to not less than 95 percent over time. Nivika has a high occupancy rate throughout the property portfolio and as of 30 September 2024, the economic occupancy rate was 95 percent for the commercial properties and 98 percent for residentials.

Tenants

Nivika's income base is well diversified as it rests on 600 (620) commercial contracts and the tenants consist of both well-established multinational companies, small and medium sized companies, and public administration. As of 30 September 2024, the Group's ten largest rental agreements constituted 14 percent (16) of the Group's rental income, and the rental agreements were signed with differentiated terms mainly within the interval 5 to 15 years and had an average remaining term of 10.4 years (10.0).

FINANCING

A well-balanced financing structure with a balanced combination of equity, bank loans, and other financing reduces financial risk and enables profitable growth. Over the past year, Nivika has increased secured financing and strengthened equity. This has resulted in a strong capital structure that facilitates profitable projects and acquisitions, contributing to continued growth.

Financial position and liquidity

Nivika's operations are financed through a combination of bank loans, other liabilities, and equity. The financing is conducted through secured mortgage loans, building credits and revolving credit facilities from around ten financial institutions, primarily three major Nordic banks, as well as local savings banks and SBAB.

Over the past year, Nivika has taken several measures to minimize financial risk and strengthen key figures. Through new bank financing and a rights issue, previously outstanding bonds have been resolved and the company has increased liquidity to continue making profitable acquisitions of highyield properties in our core areas.

These measures demonstrate the strength of Nivika's operations, its property portfolio, and strong ownership. Combined with falling market interest rates has led to positive adjustments in the financial key figures. At the end of the period, the average interest rate in the loan portfolio, considering interest derivatives and excluding building credits, was 4.5 percent (5.3). The interest coverage ratio, measured over the last 12 months, w.s 1.9 (1.6). The average interest rate duration and loanto-maturity stood at 2.9 (0.9) and 2.7 (2.5) years, respectively, as of September 30, 2024. The net loan-to-value ratio at the end of the period was 46 percent (50). The company's target for a maximum net loan-tovalue ratio of 55 percent provides additional room for increased borrowing and value creation in our business areas.

The company actively manages interest rate risk through various types of interest rate derivatives. During the period, additional interest rate hedging has been implemented, and a total of 56 percent (30) of the loan portfolio is now hedged via derivatives.

As of the reporting date, the long-term interest-bearing financial liabilities amounted to SEK 5,308 million (5,214), of which long-term bank financing accounted for SEK 5,200 million (4,520), bond loans SEK 0 million (650), and other interest-bearing liabilities SEK 107 million (42). The changes during the year are explained by new loans on existing assets, new loans for acquisitions and new constructions, repayment of loans in connection with divestments, and redemption of bond loans.

Bank financing is secured through mortgages on properties and group collateral. Some bank loans also include covenants related to the reporting of financial key figures and information obligations. All were fulfilled as of the reporting date. The share of green financing is increasing, with approximately 20 percent of the outstanding bank debt classified as green. Extensions are handled continuously, and nearly all loans with extensions during 2024 have been managed. Approved but unused financing as of the end of September 2024 amounted to approximately 450 million SEK for approved but undisbursed building credits, bank loans and overdraft facilities.

After the end of the period, the company returned to the bond market and successfully issued senior unsecured green bonds at an initial amount of SEK 400 million under a total framework of SEK 800 million. The transaction attracted strong interest from Nordic institutional investors and was significantly oversubscribed. The bond carries a floating interest rate of 3-month STIBOR plus 325 basis points with a maturity of 3.25 years. The proceeds will be used in accordance with the company's recently established green financing framework and will contribute to the company's continued growth and create value for shareholders.

EARNINGS CAPACITY

The current earnings capacity for the coming 12 months is based on the property portfolio owned by Nivika as of balance sheet date.

The earnings capacity is not a forecast but a snapshot whose purpose is to present income and expenses on an annual basis given property holdings, financing costs, capital structure and organisation at a specific point in time. Earnings capacity does not include estimations for the forthcoming period regarding the development of rent, occupancy rate, property expenses, interest rates, changes in value or other items affecting earnings.

Based on the property portfolio and the current signed leases per balance sheet date, the rental income for the coming twelve-month period amounts to 734 MSEK. The property expenses are calculated based on the current operating margin, amounted to 199 MSEK, which generats an operating net of 535 MSEK. The surplus rate is estimated to approximately 72 percent based on property costs for a normal business year including property-related administration. Based on the current scope of organization and operations, the central administration costs are estimated to 40 MSEK. Profit from property management is therefore estimated to 240 MSEK.

Current earning capacity does not include future income from construction in progress. According to estimates, ongoing projects add rental income of 38 MSEK. Based on the assessed surplus rate, the projects add an operating net of approximately 33 MSEK.

PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS

In mid-August, Nivika held an extraordinary general meeting where the meeting decided to change the financial year to a calendar year, that is, January 1 to December 31. This means that the current financial year is extended until 2024-12-31 and thus becomes 16 months. This "Q5" report is the first interim report in accordance with the new financial year as of 2024-09-30 that Nivika reports.

Income

For the fifth quarter, total revenue amounted to 178 MSEK (161), which is an increase of 10 percent compared with the same quarter last year. For the full period, which adds up to 13 months, they amounted to 735 MSEK, a growth of 20 percent compared with the corresponding period 2022-09-01 to 2023-08-31 last year. Rental income accounted for 704 MSEK (580) of total income for the entire reporting period.

Revenues also consist of service revenues, which amounted to 31 MSEK (32) for the entire period. Service income consists mainly of recharging of heat, electricity, water and property tax.

The growth is mainly attributed to property acquisitions, indexation and that a number of large projects have been completed. The Company manages 199 properties as of September 30, 2024, with a total lettable area of approximately 613,000 sq. m compared to 559,000 sq. m in the corresponding period last year. The total rental value as of Septemer 30, 2024, amounted to 766 MSEK (661) on an annual basis, corresponding to growth of 16 percent.

Operating costs and net operation income

Operating costs, including maintenance costs and property tax, amounted to -210 MSEK (-197) for the entire period. Net operating income for the fifth quarter amounted to 139 MSEK (120), corresponding to a surplus ratio of 78 percent (75). For the full period, September to September 2023/24, the operating surplus amounted to 525 MSEK (415), corresponding to a surplus ratio of 71 percent (68).

Profit from property management operations

Profit from property management, which is the operating profit after net financial items, amounted to 65 MSEK (55) for the fifth quarter. The increased costs are derived mainly from the one-off costs for replacing both financial and property systems. Also one-off costs in connection with change of financial year and increase in customer losses compared to the previous year, has affected the cost increase during the past quarter. For the entire reporting period, the change was 58 percent compared to period 2022-09-01 to 2023-08-31 and amounted to 211 MSEK (134). Profit from property management was positively affected by an increased rental income, a reduced management costs and decrease in financing costs after the bond was fullt redeemed.

Changes in value

As in the previous quarters, the fourth quarter has been characterized by continued high market interest rates and thus higher financing costs. Higher yield requirements have to some extent been offset by improved cash flow, offset by CPI index adjustment and rent increases for 2024.

For the reporting period, the change in the value of properties amounted to 95 MSEK (-458), of which 11 MSEK (38) was realized and is attributable to the sale of Släggan 11, Vesslan 18-21, Apoteket 2, Bokhandeln 2, Stigamo 1:66 and part of Graniten 39. Unrealized changes in value amounted to 84 MSEK (-496).

Unrealized changes in the value of derivatives for the full period affected the result by -145 MSEK 85) and relay entirely to unrealized value changes driven by falling market interest rates.

Seasonal variations

The net operating income at Nivika varies over the year, depending on seasonal variations that occur in the real estate industry and in the Company's markets. During the winter months the result is affected by higher costs mainly from electricity and heating. The leasees are structured in such a way that the tenants are charged and evenly distributed preliminary fee on an ongoing basis during the year, while the expenditure for the actual consumption is expensed in line with the outcome. This results in a lower surplus rate in the winter months, correspondingly, it is at a higher level during the summer months.

Tax

Deferred tax liabilities and assets have been calculated at a tax rate in Sweden of 20.6 percent.

Employees

All employees at Nivika are employed by The Parent Company. At the end of the period, the number of employees amounted to 65 (62), of which 22 (23) are women and 43 (39) men.
