Earnings Release
Open in ViewerOpens in native device viewer


Following a strong 2021 for KMC Properties, where we laid a solid foundation for further growth for our company, we have continued to pursue attractive opportunities in 2022.
For the first quarter of 2022, we recorded a rental income of NOK 62.7 million, up from NOK 61.7 million from the previous quarter primarily driven by additional income generated from new investments, CPI adjustments and re-classification of rental income from our office building in Moscow.
During the quarter, we announced acquisitions of a meat processing facility near Narvik in Northern Norway for NOK 100 million, and a herring production facility in Sweden for SEK 94 million. Both acquisitions are in line with our strategy to invest in industrial properties with long lease agreements.
Ever since we established KMC Properties through the combination with Storm Real Estate, we have had an intention to divest the property in Russia. Following our decision to discontinue our operations in Russia, the property was this quarter re-classified as held for sale.
At the end of the first quarter, our investment properties were valued at NOK 4 028 million, up from NOK 4 001 million at the end of 2021. While our investments in additional properties and upgrades of existing portfolio increased the value by NOK 210.4 million, the value was reduced by NOK 142.6 million from the mentioned re-classification of the Russian property, as well as translation adjustments of NOK 38.4 million.
A few weeks ago, we published our annual report for 2021, including our first sustainability report with reference to the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). We have initiated several activities to improve our performance on our most material environmental, social and governance issues, and we believe these will contribute to our long-term value creation for our stakeholders. One exciting project in this sense, is an ongoing pilot project at a property in Fredrikstad. Here we will be testing the use of solar panels and battery containers to increase the use of renewable energy and to optimise energy capacity. We look forward to gaining valuable experience from the project and hopefully install solar panels and battery solutions on relevant properties going forward.
Our development projects continued to show good progress this quarter. This includes the packaging hub for BEWI at Jøsnøya, Hitra, where the pre-project phase is still ongoing, the production facility for Oppdal Spekemat at Oppdal, where we expect completion in the third quarter this year, and the development of the salmon slaughterhouse facility for Slakteriet.
Going forward, we are excited about the attractive opportunities in our pipeline. We are very well positioned to deliver on our ambitious strategic target of a NOK 8 billion real estate portfolio by the end of 2025.

KMC Properties has, since the company was established through a transformative transaction with Storm Real Estate in December 2020, owned an office building in Moscow, Russia. As of 31 March 2022, the company had decided to sell the office building and discontinue its operations in Russia completely. Hence, the accounting figures for the operations in Russia and its assets and liabilities, for the current and previous periods, are presented separately in the financial results and in the financial position.

Rental income for the first quarter of 2022 amounted to NOK 62.7 million, up from NOK 48.2 million for the comparable period of 2021. The change of approximately NOK 7.6 million from the contractual rental income in the previous period is specified in the table above.
Due to the decision to sell the office building in Moscow, the rental income from Russia (NOK 4.5 million for the first quarter 2022 and NOK 6.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2021) is presented under "Profit from discontinued operation".
KMC Properties has invested NOK 45.7 million in upgrades on its property at Leknes and is currently in the final phase of deciding the rental increase related to the completed capex project together with its tenant. Until the rental increase is set, KMC Properties is invoicing its tenant approximately NOK 0.65 million per quarter. The income is accounted as a financial income.
Based on final agreements as of 23 February 2022:

Since most of the group's lease agreements are triple net bare house agreements, direct property costs are low. Hence net operating income amounted to NOK 61.7 million for the quarter, up from NOK 45.9 million for the corresponding quarter last year. The increase is related to income from new investments.
Employee benefit and salary expenses amounted to NOK 6.7 million for the first quarter of 2022, up from NOK 2.3 million for the first quarter of 2021. The company has strengthened its organisation significantly during 2021 and 2022.
Other operating expenses were NOK 6.6 million for the first quarter, compared to NOK 21.9 million for the same quarter last year. Transaction costs, mainly legal and other advisory fees related to investment and financing activities, amounted to NOK 2.6 million for the quarter.

Net realised financials came in at a negative NOK 25.5 million, compared to a negative NOK 19.7 million for the first quarter last year. The increase relates to higher interest interest-bearing debt and higher interest rates.
NOK 0.65 million of the financial income in the first quarter of 2022 was interest income on the investment in the property at Leknes, see comment under "Rental income" above.
Net income from property management (see definition under "Alternative Performance Measures") came in at NOK 22.9 million for the quarter, up from NOK 2.1 million for the same quarter of 2021.

Net profit after tax was NOK 12.1 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared to NOK 60.6 million for the first quarter of 2021. The low net profit after tax is heavily affected by the loss of NOK 51.7 million from discontinued operations in Russia, see note 7 in the financial statements for more details.
Total comprehensive income came in at a loss of NOK 13.5 million this quarter, compared to a profit of NOK 0.1 million for the first quarter last year.

The remainder, approximately NOK 64 million was settled in cash.
On 2 February 2022, KMC Properties announced its acquisition of a modern meat processing facility, strategically located at Fagernes near Narvik in Norway, from Kubera AS for a consideration of approximately NOK 100 million.
The property is composed of 10 303 m2 BTA of land and 6 093 m2 BTA of building that was erected in 1998 and substantially upgraded in 2001 and 2003. The meat processing facility is strategically located south of Narvik city center, near the E6 motorway, the railway and port terminal.
The property came with a bare house agreement with the tenant, Kuraas AS, which is on a 6.5-year lease with the option to extend. The total consideration for the property was approximately NOK 100 million, with a yield of 7.8 per cent based on the rent for 2022.
Kuraas is a Norwegian producer and seller of meats, headquartered in Narvik. The company has approximately 110 employees and reported NOK 212 million in revenues in 2020.
The acquisition was completed on 10 February 2022 and was financed through a combination of bank loan and equity.
On 9 February 2022, with reference to stock exchange announcement of 23 August 2021, regarding the company's LOI with Slakteriet Holding AS to build a new salmon slaughterhouse facility at Florø, KMC Properties announced the signing of a process agreement, confirming the initial plans for expected completion during the first half of 2024.
Through the process agreement the parties have agreed upon a triple-net bare house agreement which shall be entered into if and when the parties reach a final decision to complete the project. The lease agreement shall have an initial lease term of 20 years, with the option of a 4x5-year extension.
Following the LOI in August 2021, a legal and technical due diligence have been successfully performed.
Established in 1989, Slakteriet is one of Norway's biggest fish slaughter companies, with major facilities in Florø and Brekke. The company has been growing steadily and has a solid financial position, posting NOK 191 million in revenues and NOK 34 million in EBITDA in 2020.
The project is progressing according to plan. The estimated investment has been updated from NOK 620 million to NOK 682 million, still with a yield-on-cost of 6.75 per cent.
On 3 March 2021, KMC Properties entered a letter of intent (LOI) with BEWI ASA for development of a new packaging facility on Jøsnøya, Hitra, on the west coast of Central Norway, and on 8 July, the company announced that it had entered a conditional long-term lease agreement for the property with BEWI and entered an agreement for the pre-project phase.
The new facility will be built and owned by KMC Properties and handed over to BEWI pursuant to a final lease agreement with an initial term of 15 years, with an option for BEWI to extend the lease term two times by five year each.
The pre-project phase is still ongoing and progressing well. The development is expected to take approximately 12 months, with completion in the second half of 2023.
On 2 July 2021, KMC Properties entered an agreement with Oppdal Spekemat AS for construction of a new production facility at Oppdal, in Trøndelag county in central Norway.
The agreement stipulates that KMC Properties acquires a plot from Oppdal Spekemat and finances and builds the new production facility. When completed, the facility will be leased to Oppdal Spekemat on a triple-net bare-house agreement, with an initial lease term of 15 years, with the option of an extension. The initial lease term is irrevocable.
The construction cost is estimated to be approximately NOK 80 million, and the yield-on-cost is set on 7.5 per cent.
The development project is progressing according to plan, with expected completion in the third quarter of 2022.
Since KMC Properties was established through the combination with Storm Real Estate, the company has had an intention to divest the property in Russia, as it does not fit the company's investment strategy.
Early in the first quarter of 2022, prior to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the property was re-classified as held for sale, as explained above. The re-classification also included a writedown of the property value by NOK 67.2 million in the first quarter.
Sanctions imposed on Russia following the invasion, has significantly increased the risks related to KMC Properties' operations in Russia. Since the invasion, the company has, with assistance from Baker McKenzie in Russia, performed a sanction control on its current tenants in Russia without any significant findings. In addition, KMC Properties is monitoring the changing regulatory requirements with assistance from legal and financial consultants in Norway and Russia.
On 31 March 2022, the property in Russia was valued at NOK 75.4 million.
KMC Properties ASA is listed on the Oslo Børs (Oslo Stock Exchange) under the symbol KMCP.

Going into 2022, KMC Properties has continued to deliver on its growth strategy, announcing three acquisitions yearto-date, and with a solid pipeline of transformative opportunities firming up.

The KMC Properties ASA Real Estate Group conducts business in Europe. The group's business idea is primarily to acquire and manage commercial industry and logistics properties. The property portfolio is mainly comprising industrial and logistics properties, in addition to a smaller proportion office property. The holding company, KMC Properties ASA, is a public limited liability company with headquarter in Trondheim, Norway.
The company's shares are listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange under the ticker "KMCP".
For more information, including company related risks, please see the annual report for 2021.
The results for the period have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The accounting principles that have been used in the preparation of the interim financial statements are in conformity with the principles used in preparation of the annual financial statements for 2021.
In Q1 2022 the group decided to exit the Russian market and initiated an active program to locate a buyer for its Russian subsidiary owning the company's office building in Moscow. The investment in Russia is consequently presented as a discontinued operation and the associated assets and liabilities presented as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5 as of 31 March 2022. Comparative figures are changed accordingly.
The financial reporting covers KMC Properties ASA and subsidiaries. The interim financial statements have not been audited.
The valuation of the properties at 31 March 2022 has been performed by an independent expert valuer, Cushman & Wakefield.

The sensitivity of the fair-value assessment of investment properties depends to a considerable extent on assumptions related to yield, interest rates, market rents and operating costs for the properties. The table below presents examples of how changes related to each of these variables influenced property values, at 31 March 2022, assuming all other variables remained constant (amounts in NOK million). However, there are interrelationships between these variables, and it is expected that a change in one variable may influence one or more of the other variables.
| Variables Change of variables |

1) The bond is secured by, in addition to mortgages over the properties, share charges over the shares of the guarantors, pledges over bank accounts, Norwegian floating charges over trade receivables, and certain other floating charges / enterprise mortgages in Finland, Denmark and Sweden 2) In accordance with valuation from Cushman & Wakefield at 31 March 2022
The bond terms governing the bond issue, require that all funds received from sale of pledged properties shall be paid into a bank account blocked and pledged in favour of the bond holders (the "Disposal Account"). Funds from the Disposal Account may be used to finance development of properties in the bond security package. Hence, in accordance with the bond terms, KMC Properties ASA sold Havnegata 16 AS from KMC Properties AS to KMC Properties II Norway AS for NOK 133.3 million, on 2 July 2021. The purchase was done using standard terms, and the price was based on Cushman and Wakefield's valuation of the property at 15 June 2021. The acquisition was partly financed through a bank loan of NOK 86 million. The purchase price was paid to the Disposal Account. Since then, Nordic Trustee has released NOK 92.6 million from the Disposal Account to finance the investments in the pledged property portfolio.
The group mainly enters into long-term lease agreements with solid counterparties, strategically located for the tenants. Most lease contracts are "triple-net barehouse lease agreements". Lease payments of the contracts include CPI increases.
