The first quarter 2023 was another strong quarter for Self Storage Group (SSG) with solid organic revenue and EBITDA-growth. SSG continues to develop new facilities and opened 4 200 m2 current lettable area (CLA) and three new facilities in the first quarter. The Swedish facility Gärdet was discontinued in Q1 2023 due to a lease expiration, and a net compensation of NOK 2.6 million is classified as non-recurring. While the operating business continued to show positive development in the quarter, the effects from changes in fair value of freehold investment property caused some negative non-cash movements.
