Rental income was up by 5 per cent from 569 million in Q4 2018 to 595 million in Q4 2019. The increased rental income can be explained by the factors in the below income bridge.

The increase in rental income in the quarter, compared to the same quarter last year, is mainly driven by an underlying likefor-like growth of 3.1 per cent (16 million), compared to an annual CPI of 3.5 per cent. Further, the rental income is positively affected due to the completion of two newbuild projects, Powerhouse Brattørkaia and Tullinkvartalet, which is partly offset as Universitetsgata 2 and Schweigaaards gate 15 were vacated awaiting the redevelopment projects to begin.
The acquisition of Møllendalsveien 6-8 in Bergen and St. Olavs plass 5 in Oslo contributes with 8 million compared the same quarter last year. In addition, the divestment of the five properties in Oslo during 2019 has reduced the rental income in the fourth quarter by 12 million compared to the same quarter last year.
On a full year basis, the increased rental income is mainly driven by a full year effect from the acquisition of the Bryn portfolio in the third quarter 2018 and the properties mentioned above in the fourth quarter. This effect is partly offset by the sale of properties in Oslo during 2019.
On a like-for-like basis the rental growth for the full year was 75 million (3.8 per cent) compared to the same period in 2018.
Average 12 months rolling rent per square meter was 2,096 (2,097) as of 31.12.19.

Compared to the previous quarter, the occupancy rate went up by one percentage point to 97.1 per cent. The market rental income of vacant space as of 31.12.19 was approximately 73 million on an annualised basis.

Gross letting, including re-negotiated contracts, was 208 million in the quarter of which 3 million is attributable to letting in the project portfolio. Lease contracts with an annual lease of 40 million were terminated in the quarter. Net letting defined
as new lease contracts plus lease-up on renegotiated contracts less terminated contracts came in at 26 million (6 million) in the quarter. For 2019, gross letting including re-negotiated contracts was 371 million and lease contracts with a total value of 86 million were terminated. Net letting for the year came in
at 62 million. The timing difference between net letting in the management portfolio in the quarter and its effect on the financial results is normally 6-12 months, while new contracts signed in the project portfolio tend to have a later impact on the results.

The graph above shows the estimated development of contracted rental income based on all reported events, including income effect from divestments and acquisitions, development projects, net letting based on new and terminated contracts in the management portfolio, and other effects such as estimated CPI adjustments. It does not reflect any letting targets on the vacant areas in the portfolio or on contracts that will expire, but where the outcome of any renegotiation process is not known, i.e. not yet reported in "Net letting". The graph therefore does not constitute a forecast, but rather aims to demonstrate the rental income trend in the existing contract portfolio on the balance sheet date based on all reported events. See also note 5 for further information on potential development of rental income.

| Direct property costs | 9 | 10 | 40 | 34 |
| Operating costs | 49 | 54 | 189 | 184 |
The 4 million reduction from tax, leasehold and insurance since the fourth quarter of 2018 is mainly related to reduced leasehold cost as future fixed lease payments under IFRS 16 from Q1 2019 are recognised as lease liabilities, while previously being recognised as operating costs on a straightline basis. The increase in the letting and property administrative costs in 2019 is mainly related to the acquisition of the Bryn portfolio in the second half of 2018.
As a consequence of the effects explained above, net operating income came in at 547 million (515 million) in the quarter.
Other revenues were 60 million (456 million) in the quarter and other costs were 43 million (442 million). 20 million of other revenues and 18 million of other costs are related to the development of Tollbugata 1A in Oslo, which was forward-sold and delivered to the buyer in the fourth quarter of 2019.
All of the income and costs related to assets in the Bryn portfolio which is expected to be zoned for residential development and subsequently sold to a third party, is recognised as other revenues and other cost. The net effect of this is 3 million in the fourth quarter of 2019.
In addition to the effects explained above, the net effect from other revenues and other costs in the quarter mainly consists of income and cost from services provided to tenants.
Administrative costs amounted to 39 million (44 million) in the quarter and 171 million (157 million) in 2019. The increase in 2019 is primarily related to Entra's technology and digitalization initiatives.

Net realised financials have increased in 2019 compared to 2018 mainly due to higher net nominal interest bearing debt.
Net income came in at 471 million (383 million) in the quarter. When including only the income from property management in the results from JVs, net income from property management for the Group was 384 million (352 million). This represents an increase of 9 per cent. For calculation of Net income from property management, see the section Alternative performance measures.
(Annualised, rolling 4 quarters)

Net value changes amounted to 569 million (331 million) in the quarter and 1,955 million (1,486 million) for 2019.
The valuation of the property portfolio resulted in a net positive value change of 470 million (404 million) in the quarter and 1,909 million (1,387 million) for the financial year 2019.
In the fourth quarter about 212 million of the total value changes is attributable to increased market rent, primarily in central Oslo, about 96 million is net result of new contracts signed in the quarter partly offset by effects from terminated contracts. About 2 million is related to transactions in the quarter, and 92 million is related to yield compression mainly from the Bergen portfolio. About 78 million relates to ongoing projects, mainly explained by new lease contracts signed in the period, reduced risk as each project is moving towards completion in combination with improved market conditions. The remaining negative value changes of 12 million relates to various property related changes.
Net changes in value of financial instruments was 99 million (-73 million) in the quarter. The development in the quarter is mainly explained by higher long-term interest rates.
Tax payable of 2 million (5 million) in the quarter is related to the partly owned entity Papirbredden in Drammen. The change in deferred tax was -7 million (71 million) in the quarter. The effective tax rate is less than the corporate income tax mainly due to divestment of properties without tax effect.
The Group, except for certain partly owned companies with marginal tax effect, is currently not in a tax payable position due to tax loss carry forward. At year-end 2019, the tax loss carry forward for the Group's wholly-owned subsidiaries was 68 million (321 million).
Profit before tax was 1,040 million (714 million) in the quarter. Profit after tax was 1,031 million (779 million) and total comprehensive income after tax was 1,035 million (774 million).

Other non-current liabilities was 505 million (456 million) at the end of the quarter. The increase is mainly related to the capitalisation of lease liabilities of 235 million following the implementation of IFRS 16, partly offset by the derecognition of a provision for the contract obligation assumed from the University of Oslo for the remaining lease period until 2025 at St. Olavs plass 5. The provision was derecognised following the acquisition of St. Olavs plass 5 in the fourth quarter.
Book equity totalled 24,517 million (22,269 million). Equity per share was 151 (141) based on the EPRA NAV standard and 142 (131) based on EPRA NNNAV.

The average interest rate1 of the debt portfolio was 2.99 per cent (2.85 per cent) as at 31.12.19.

Entra's management portfolio consists of 76 buildings with a total area of approximately 1.1 million square meters. As of 31.12.19, the management portfolio had a market value of around 45 billion. The occupancy rate was 97.1 per cent (96.5 per cent). The weighted average unexpired lease term for the Group's leases was 6.8 years (6.7) for the management portfolio and 6.9 years (7.4) when the project portfolio is included. The public sector represents approximately 60 per cent of the total customer portfolio. The entire property portfolio consists of 89 properties with a market value of about 49 billion.
Entra's properties are valued by two external appraisers (Akershus Eiendom and Cushman & Wakefield) on a quarterly basis. The market value of the portfolio in Entra's balance sheet is based on the average of the appraisers' valuation. Valuation
of the management portfolio is performed on a property by property basis, using individual DCF models and taking into account the property's current characteristics combined with the external appraiser's estimated return requirements and expectations on future market development. The market value is defined as the external appraiser's estimated transaction value of the individual properties on valuation date. The project portfolio is valued based on the same principles, but with deduction for remaining investments and perceived risk as of valuation date. The land and development portfolio is valued based on actually zoned land.
Year-on-year, the portfolio net yield is reduced from 5.1 to 4.8 per cent. 12 months rolling rent were stable during the last year, whereas the market rent has increased by 5 per cent, from 2,159 to 2,261 per square meter.

In Tullinkvartalet in Oslo, Entra is building a new 21,900 sqm office property in Universitetsgata 7-9 in Oslo. Occupancy is currently 49 per cent. The property is expected to be finalised in Q3 2021 with high environmental ambitions and aims for a BREEAM-NOR Excellent classification.
Entra is further redeveloping the 4,300 sqm office property in Kristian Augusts gate 13. The project will demonstrate Entra's strong commitment to work for more sustainable solutions by incorporating a target of more than 60 per cent re-use of building materials. Occupancy is at 100 per cent as the property will be let to the co-working operator IWG/Spaces.
The construction project is expected to be completed in August 2020.
Next to Tullinkvartalet, Entra also has the redevelopment project Rebel ongoing in Universitetsgata 2. Rebel will be a technology and knowledge hub for large and small tech companies and will be managed 50/50 by Entra and an external partner. The 28,100 sqm building will consist of office space, co-working areas, conference centre and restaurants. Occupancy is currently 18 per cent.

In Holtermanns veg 1-13 in Trondheim, Entra has ongoing construction of a new office building. This is the first of three planned buildings. The approved zoning allows total construction of approximately 48,000 sqm, where the first building is 11,700 sqm. This new-build includes a 2,000 sqm basement with parking facilities. Expected completion is in the first quarter of 2020. The property is currently 91 per cent prelet. Estimated total investment has increased with NOK 11 million in the quarter in connection with new rental contracts due to VAT. The yield-on cost increased with 0,1 per cent. The project has high environmental ambitions and aims for a BREEAM-NOR Excellent classification.
Entra actively seeks to improve the quality of its property portfolio through a disciplined strategy of acquisitions and divestments. Entra focuses on acquisitions of large properties and projects in specific areas within its four core markets; Oslo and the surrounding region, Bergen, Trondheim and Stavanger. Target areas include both areas in the city centers and selected clusters and public transportation hubs outside the city centers, allowing Entra to offer rental opportunities at a price range that fits its customer base. Entra's experience, financial strength and knowledge of its tenants makes the company well positioned to make acquisitions that meets these acquisition criteria. The acquisition and divestment strategy is flexible, allowing Entra to adapt to feedback from customers and market changes, and to create and respond to market opportunities as they arise.
During the quarter Entra acquired the property Møllendalsveien 6-8, located in Entra's existing property cluster
During the fourth quarter, Entra finalised three projects.
In Tullinkvartalet in Oslo, Entra completed construction of a new 21,200 sqm campus building for the University of Oslo's Faculty of Law. In addition, 1,800 sqm next to the campus building will be redeveloped. The campus building is 100 per cent let of which the main tenant is the university on a 25-year lease. The smaller asset will be used as a project office for the nearby projects and thereafter redeveloped. Thus, the reported occupancy for the two assets combined is currently 95 per cent. The project development has high environmental ambitions and aims for a BREEAM-NOR Excellent classification.
Entra has also finalised the redevelopment of Tollbugata 1A in Oslo. The property consisted of two buildings totalling 9,000 sqm adjacent to Oslo Central Station. The property was forward sold as part of the property swap transaction announced in December 2018. The transaction closed in Q4 2019.
At Brattørkaia 12 in Trondheim, Entra finalised a 2,000 sqm new office property which is fully let to The Norwegian State Educational Loan Fund ("Lånekassen"). The project aims for Energy class A.
and nearby Media City Bergen, for a property value of NOK 400 mill. Møllendalsveien 6-8 is a 14,500 sqm office property with an annual rent of NOK 26.4 mill. The average lease contract duration is approximately 1.2 year. Entra plans to re-develop the asset into an attractive office product when the existing lease contracts expire.
Entra also announced an agreement regarding development of the area Jåttåvågen Fase 2. The development area is land plot adjacent to Hinna Park with an estimated development potential of minimum 205,000 sqm, split on 60 per cent residential and 40 per cent office. The zoning and development of the area has a long-term horizon and is expected to be realized over the next 25 years. Entra's share of the partnership is 12.5 per cent, and the other partners are the Municipality of Stavanger, OBOS and Camar Eiendom.

According to Entra consensus report, the office vacancy in the Oslo area has continued to decrease and has levelled out
around 5,6 per cent. The vacancy level is primarily driven by increasing employment and moderate net new capacity to the market, stemming from limited construction activity and continued office-to-residential conversion. Vacancy is lowest in the city centre. Consequently, the uplift in rent levels is expected to continue. Modern, centrally located office premises are especially attractive and are expected to see the strongest growth.
In Bergen, the office vacancy has decreased to about 8 per cent due to low construction activity, office-to-residential conversion, and increased employment and new optimism in the oil and gas industry. Rents in the city centre of Bergen has increased due to high demand for centrally located premises, and low supply of modern, centrally located office premises.
The Stavanger area is experiencing increasing employment and optimism due to higher activity in the oil and gas sector. As a result of this, combined with low construction activity, office vacancies have fallen to about 11 per cent. Rents have levelled out in the main oil and gas intensive areas. In Stavanger city centre, the vacancy is low, there is an increasing demand for modern, flexible and centrally located office premises and rent levels appears to increase slightly.
In Trondheim, the overall office vacancy is currently around 12 per cent. Vacancy is highest in the fringe areas of the city. The market has shown ability to absorb the new capacity and most of the premises completed in 2019. The construction volume of new office space will increase in 2020. Rent levels in the city centre have increased, while there is a downward pressure on rents in the fringe areas.

The annual general meeting in Entra ASA will be held on 30 April 2020. In line with the dividend policy of distributing approximately 60 per cent of Cash Earnings, the board of Entra will propose to distribute a semi-annual dividend of NOK 2.40 per share for the second half of 2019. In October 2019, Entra paid out NOK 2.30 per share for the first six months of 2019. For the financial year 2019 Entra will thus have paid out NOK 4.70 per share compared to NOK 4.50 per share in 2018. Refer to section "Alternative performance measures" for calculation of Cash Earnings.
Entra continues to deliver on its core strategic pillars; profitable growth, customer satisfaction, and environmental leadership.
Solid letting and management of high quality assets, combined with deliberate and targeted project development of both newbuilds and redevelopments are the main sources of profitable growth in Entra. Emerging trends like co-working, employee wellbeing and increased flexibility demands from tenants will impact Entra's priorities, making technology development and being close to the tenants even more important. Entra has in recent years had the most satisfied customers amongst the major Norwegian real estate companies, and a priority is to further develop end-user focus with product and service offerings to realize the vision of owning buildings where the most satisfied people work.
Environmental leadership and sustainability have been key priorities for Entra during the last decade and is an integral part of all business operations in the company. Circular economy and re-use of building materials has strong momentum, and through ambitious pilot projects Entra is leading and challenging the industry to work with circular value chains. There is a continued growing interest and commitment from all stakeholders for sustainable business operations, and the financial benefits are also materialising through increasing appreciation from tenants, lower cost of funding through green bond and bank financing, and higher valuations of environmentally friendly properties. In addition, a true and genuine purpose spurs employee motivation and attracts new talent to the company.
The Norwegian economy is seeing a stable and positive momentum with GDP growth and increasing employment. Nevertheless, there is still general uncertainty about the future stemming primarily from geopolitical and financial macro factors that could impact the Norwegian economy.
Modern, environmentally friendly offices located near public transportation hubs are attractive and obtain solid rents compared to premises located in less central areas. Entra's portfolio in Oslo constitutes around 63 per cent of the market value of the management portfolio, and particularly the central Oslo office market is expected to continue favourably with low vacancy levels and increasing market rents. The office market in Bergen is also developing positively from a solid base, and we continue to see a moderate recovery in Stavanger. Trondheim is expected to remain relatively stable.
Interest rates are expected to remain at historically low levels in the foreseeable future, as uncertainty in the global economy will impact economic growth prospects.
The Norwegian transaction market is very active and driven by strong demand supported by a well-functioning debt market. The yield compression levelled out during 2018, and one expects a relatively flat development over the coming years. Entra's high quality portfolio with a healthy mix of attractive yielding properties and value enhancing development project combined with a positive rental market outlook should provide a continued positive portfolio value development.
With Entra's flexible properties in attractive locations and clusters, strong tenant base with long lease contracts, exciting project pipeline and solid financial position, the Board believe that the company is well positioned for the future.

* Repayment of lease liabilities of 9 million for the full year of 2019 includes 2 million of repayments in each of the three first quarters of the year. The repayments were presented under Net cash flow from operating activities in the respective quarterly reports but is included in Net cash flow from financing activities for the full year in the quarterly report for the fourth quarter. The statement of cash flows for the three first quarters of 2019 are not restated.
The results for the period have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The financial reporting covers Entra ASA, subsidiaries, associated companies and jointly controlled entities. The interim financial statements have not been audited.
Except for the implementation of the standards IFRS 16, 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 2018.
The Group adopted IFRS 16 on 1 January 2019, applying the modified retrospective transition method. Under the modified retrospective transition method, the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard is recognised at the date of initial application.
IFRS 16 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases and requires lessees to account for all leases under a single on-balance sheet model similar to the accounting for finance leases under IAS 17. The standard substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17, and continues to require a lessor to classify a lease either as an operating lease or a finance lease. For leases with at lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low‑value assets, the Group will recognise a lease expense on a straight‑line basis as permitted by IFRS 16.
The effect of the implementation of IFRS 16 on the opening balance sheet as of 1 January 2019 was the following:
| All amounts in NOK million | Effect 01.01.19 |
|---|---|
| Investment properties | 231 |
| Total assets | 231 |
| Total equity | -10 |
| Deferred tax liability | -3 |
| Other non-current liabilities | 235 |
| Other current liabilities | 9 |
| Total equity and liabilities | 231 |
The Group has analysed all its lease contracts for the lease of ground, parking lots and buildings to evaluate if they fulfil the criteria to qualify as leases according to IFRS 16. Only fixed payments are included in the initial measurement of the lease liability, excluding the Group's turnover based lease contracts. Based on this analysis, the Group has identified a limited number of lease contracts according to the standard concerning leased ground, parking lots and buildings.
The lease term corresponds to the non-terminable period. The discount rate used to calculate the lease liability is determined, for each asset, based on the Group's incremental borrowing rate for leases with under 15 years until maturity. For leases with over 15 years until maturity, the discount rate is based on the properties' net yields, adjusted for company-specific features that affect Entra's incremental borrowing rate, such as tenant-specific factors and the length of the lease.
Entra applies the fair value model in IAS 40 to its investment properties, where the rental expenses under the property lease contracts until the implementation of IFRS 16 were included in the individual property's assumed future cash flows. The leased properties meet the definition of investment properties in IAS 40 and Entra also applies the fair value model to right-of-use assets associated with the property lease contracts. By separating the rental expenses from the other cash flows of the property, the discounted cash flows of the property increase by an amount equal to the value of the right-of-use asset. The discount rate used to calculate the right-of-use asset in accordance with IAS 40 is different from the discount rate used to calculate the lease liability. Further, the value of the right-ofuse asset include expected CPI adjustments, while expected CPI adjustments cannot be factored in when determining the lease liability. The value of the right-of-use assets is consequently different from the value of the lease liability.
The impacts on the statement of comprehensive income for 2019 was the following:
The Group has one main operational unit, led by the COO. The property portfolio is divided into six different geographic areas in Oslo, Sandvika, Drammen, Stavanger, Bergen and Trondheim, with management teams monitoring and following upon each area. The geographic units are supported by a Letting and Property Development division, Project Development division and a Digital and Business Development division. In addition, Entra has group and support functions within accounting and finance, legal, investment, procurement, communication and HR.
The geographic areas do not have their own profit responsibility. The geographical areas are instead followed up on economical and non-economical key figures ("key performance indicators"). These key figures are analysed and reported by geographic area to the chief operating decision maker, that is the board and CEO, for the purpose of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance. Hence, the Group report the segment information based upon these six geographic areas.

The Norwegian Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation has had an option to buy the property Munchs gate 4/Keysers gate 13, which is let to the Norwegian Ministry of Justice and Public Security. In 2013, the Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation gave notice to Entra that they intended to exercise the purchase option on the property in April 2014. Near closing, the Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation gave notice that they would not close the transaction as they were not granted funding to the purchase in the National Budget for 2014.
From that time, Entra has been of the opinion that the purchase option was voided. The Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation had a conflicting view and applied for a ruling by the Oslo District Court, which ruled in favour of the Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation in September 2019. According to the ruling, the Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation has the right to purchase the property as of June 2018 for 486 million. The estimated settlement according to the ruling is reflected in the measurement of the fair value of the property. Entra disagrees with, and has appealed, the ruling, and we expect a ruling by the higher court during 2020 or 2021.
The current annual rental income is 39 million and the remaining lease term is 15 years. If it, in the end, is not ruled in favour of Entra, the property will be derecognized when Entra ceases to control of the property.
Entra's financial information is prepared in accordance with the international financial reporting standards (IFRS). In addition, the company reports alternative performance measures (APMs) that are regularly reviewed by management to enhance the understanding of Entra's performance as a supplement, but not as a substitute, to the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. Financial APMs are intended to enhance comparability of the results and cash flows from period to period, and it is Entra's experience that these are frequently used by analysts, investors and other parties. The financial APMs reported by Entra are the APMs that, in management's view, provide the most relevant supplemental information of a real estate company's financial position and performance. These measures are adjusted IFRS measures defined, calculated and used in a consistent and transparent manner over the years. Operational measures such as, but not limited to, net letting, vacancy and WAULT are not defined as financial APMs according to ESMA's guidelines.

The objective with EPRA NAV is to demonstrate the fair value of net assets given a long-term investment horizon. EPRA NAV is calculated as net asset value adjusted to include market value of all properties in the portfolio, and to exclude certain items not expected to crystallise in a long-term investment property business model such as e.g. financial derivatives and deferred tax on the market value of investment properties.
The objective with EPRA NNNAV is to report the fair value of net assets in the Group on the basis that these are immediately realised. EPRA NNNAV is EPRA NAV adjusted to reflect the fair value of debt and derivatives and in order to include deferred tax on value changes.

Note to EPRA NAV development graph on page 2:
The revaluation of investments made in JVs was in the first quarter of 2019 reported as 1,108 million. The correct revaluation should however have been 756 million, resulting in EPRA NAV and EPRA NNNAV of 26,233 million (NOK 144 per share) and 24,323 million (NOK 133 per share), respectively. Comparative figures are updated in the EPRA NAV development graph.
EPRA Net initial yield measures the annualised rental income based on the cash rents passing at the balance sheet date, less nonrecoverable property operating expenses, divided by the market value of the property, increased with (estimated) purchasers' costs.
EPRA "topped-up" net initial yield incorporates an adjustment to the EPRA NIY in respect of the expiration of rent-free periods (or other unexpired lease incentives such as discounted rent periods and step rents).
