The market is continuing to steadily improve. Even if the global turbulence is creating uncertainty over the short term, Bonava is meeting it with a strong, cost-efficient organisation that is close to the market. Bonava had a stable start to 2025, with an increased number of housing units started and sold as well as improved margins. We are now moving from consolidation to controlled growth, with our sights on achieving our financial targets.
Bonava's markets continued to develop positively during the first quarter on the basis of increased disposable income, lower interest rates and a deficit of modern, sustainable housing units. The global turbulence that arose as a consequence of the trade tariffs that have been imposed could naturally impact sales and bookings, but at the same time it means that further interest rate reductions may become possible. We are monitoring developments in the business environment closely and – after having implemented robust measures – have a decentralised and flexible organisation that is both close to the market and can address shifting circumstances.
During the first quarter of the year, we increased the number of housing units sold to 589 (302). The number of production starts also increased, totalling 481 housing units (281). The sales rate for ongoing production was 66 per cent, compared with 59 per cent at year-end. In Sweden, we sold and started a large rental housing project with 231 housing units for an investor, which constitutes a milestone for the Swedish operations since it is the first investor transaction in several years. We have a large number of sales starts planned in our markets, and in 2025 we expect to be well on the way toward our target of 3,500 to 4,000 production starts, provided that requirements have been met for sales rate, cost reliability and the right project teams prior to start.
Starting in 2025, Bonava introduced the percentage of completion method for the purpose of more clearly illustrating
how the operations in our business units are performing. Net sales totalled SEK 1.6 Bn (1.7). The operating gross margin increased to 13.8 per cent (10.9) and the operating EBIT margin increased to 4.0 per cent (1.4). A significant portion of our ongoing project portfolio is in an early stage of production compared to the year before, which is why recognised net sales and profitability are impacted negatively. We have good cost control and progress in our projects. The cost-saving measures that have been implemented have taken full effect, and the overhead cost coverage will increase in pace with a higher volume of ongoing projects.
We have sharply reduced our debt levels in recent years, and at the end of the quarter was the net debt unchanged compared with the end of 2024 despite an increase in the volume of ongoing projects. Bonava benefited from the strong situation in the bond market in February, and refinanced the green bond of SEK 960 M with a new maturity in 2028. The great interest from investors resulted in a drastically oversubscribed order book, which means that our financing costs have fallen. This is the first step in the process of increasing the proportion of project financing, which will mean financing that is more adapted to our operation and thus even lower costs for financing.
Bonava is now shifting from consolidation to controlled growth, provided that market conditions support it. We have a wellsituated building rights portfolio that will facilitate profitable growth in coming years. In the first quarter, we concluded a number of building rights acquisitions in some of the fastest growing markets – Stuttgart and Riga.

Going forward, the Group's financial targets will be monitored in accordance with segment reporting, with unchanged target levels. For full-year 2025, it is believed that the operating EBIT margin will be between 5 and 6 per cent. We expect to achieve the target of an operating EBIT margin of at least 10 per cent as of full-year 2026, while there are good conditions for reaching the targets for return on shareholders' equity and dividend starting in 2027–2028.
We have implemented significant measures in recent years, and we are endeavouring to reach our financial targets. Increasing the business volume with good control is the highest priority. I would like to thank all our hard-working Bonavians for their excellent efforts!

On 27 March, Bonava arranged a wellattended Capital Markets Day in Stockholm. One of the company's announcements stated that going forward, the Group's financial targets will be monitored in accordance with segment reporting but that the target levels would remain unchanged. For 2025, it is believed that the operating EBIT margin will total 5–6 per cent, to reach the target of at least 10 per cent as of full-year 2026.

Bonava has issued new green bond totalling SEK 960 M and maturing in 2028, which facilitated a complete early redemption of previous bond from 2020. This emission strengthens the company's financial flexibility, extends the tenor and yields improved financing terms. The bond are now being traded on Nasdaq Stockholm's sustainable bond list.
At the Annual General Meeting on 9 April 2025, Anneli Jansson and Paula Röttorp were elected as new members of Bonava's Board of Directors. Viveca Ax:son Johnson declined re-election, while the other six members were re-elected. Mats Jönsson remains as Chairman of the Board. All together, the Board comprises eight members.

Bonava is supplementing its statutory financial reporting, in accordance with IFRS, with segment reporting where profit or loss from sales of housing units will be recognised using the percentage of completion method, in contrast to the previously used method where profit or loss was recognised when the customer took possession of the housing unit. The reason is that the company wants to illustrate more clearly how the operations in the business units are performing and creating value for the Group. The new segment reporting corresponds to how the Executive Management Group and Board of Directors are monitoring operations.

Fjärilshusen, Järfälla. Bonava has started production of a further 21 Nordic Swan ecolabelled single-family homes in Stockholm. In the Fjärilshusen neighbourhood, Bonava thus has 37 single-family homes in production.

Net sales amounted to SEK 1,608 M (1,650), with the decrease attributable primarily to lower net sales from the sale of land.
Net sales related to sales of housing increased in the Baltics and Germany, while Sweden was on a par with the preceding year. Finland reported a decrease, driven by reduced net sales to investors.
The number of housing units in ongoing production increased to 3,298 (2,964) with a sales rate of 66 per cent (54). A significant portion of the ongoing projects are in an early production stage compared with the preceding year, which negatively impacts net sales.
Operating gross profit increased to SEK 223 M (179) and the operating gross margin increased to 13.8 per cent (10.9). The increase is attributable to both higher project margins and lower indirect production costs.
Operating EBIT increased to SEK 65 M (24) and the operating EBIT margin increased to 4.0 per cent (1.4), driven by the strengthened gross profit. In other operations, operating EBIT amounted to SEK –39 M (–32), with the comparative period having been impacted by the reversal of reserves.
Net sales according to IFRS decreased to SEK 1,132 M (1,280), as a result of the smaller number of housing units recognised in profit: 294 (357).
Gross profit decreased to SEK 82 M (133) and the gross margin was 7.3 per cent (10.4). The decrease is attributable primarily to recognition of projects with lower margins and increased reserves in a few older projects in Germany.
EBIT amounted to SEK –76 M (–22) driven by the lower gross profit.
Net financial items amounted to SEK –141 M (–111). The lower debt volume reduced the Group's interest expenses, and net interest items for the period amounted to SEK –71 M (–106). However, as a result of refinancing of the bond during the quarter, some non-recurring costs were charged to net financial items. For more information on net financial items, refer to Note 6.
Loss before tax for the quarter according to IFRS totalled SEK –216 M (–133). Tax on profit/ loss for the quarter was SEK –8 M (–2), corresponding to a tax rate of –4 per cent (–2). The low tax rate was attributable to deferred tax not being recognised for deficits generated in 2024 or 2025.

1) Starting on 1 January 2025, the Group reports its segments using a new segment reporting method. The reason is that this new segment reporting method more clearly illustrates how operations are being pursued and create value for the Group. This new segment reporting means that profit/loss from sales of housing units will be recognised using the percentage of completion method, in contrast to the previously used method according to which profit/loss was recognised when the customer took possession of the housing unit. As in 2024, the segments' profit/loss are also being subjected to certain operating adjustments regarding impairment, sale of land, restructuring costs and acquisition costs. The figures that are based on segment reporting are marked in brown in this report. The comparative figures for 2024 have been recalculated. A bridge between operating EBIT and EBIT is found in Note 4.
2) Other operations consist of the Parent Company, Group adjustments, eliminations and the Danish operations.
The total number of building rights at the end of the period was 25,800 (28,500). As of 31 December 2024, the number of building rights totalled 25,900.
Bonava recognises some of its building rights off the balance sheet, such as land that is controlled through a contract with options or other agreements where the land has not yet been taken into possession. The number of building rights off the balance sheet at the end of the period was 6,500 (7,800). Investment commitments for building rights off the balance sheet have gradually decreased, and totalled SEK 1,015 M as of the balance sheet date, which is SEK 169 M less than at the end of the preceding quarter. Of these, SEK 475 M are expected to be paid in 2025.
During the quarter, Germany secured a further 200 building rights through contracts with options, which means a net increase of the building rights portfolio in the business unit. Through production starts and minor sales of land, Sweden reduced its portfolio of building rights by 300 units, thereby also decreasing its share of Bonava's total portfolio.
Of the potential production starts, 22 per cent could take place in 2025–2026, 25 per cent in 2027–2028 and 53 per cent after 2028.
During the third quarter of 2024, the building rights portfolio was assessed and the estimated surplus value at that time amounted to SEK 4.6 Bn. A new assessment will be conducted in the third quarter of 2025.
Number of building rights
25,800 (28,500)

During the quarter, Bonava started production on 481 housing units (281), of which 250 (281) for consumers and 231 (0) for investors. Production starts for investors is attributable to the Årsta Park project, which was started and sold in Sweden.
The number of housing units in ongoing production is 3,298 (2,964), and was 3,177 at the end of the preceding quarter. The majority of these housing units are being produced in Germany, with the focus on Berlin.
The sales rate was 66 per cent (54) on the balance sheet date. The increase is attributable to several investor projects with a 100 per cent sales rate being started, but the sales rate for consumers is increasing in all business units as well.
The number of housing units sold in the quarter was 589 (302). The corresponding figure in the preceding quarter was 1,074. The number of housing units sold to consumers was 358 (302), and to investors was 231 (0). Here as well, Årsta Park in Sweden is the reason for the increase to investors, while the increase to consumers is driven by the Baltics.
The number of unsold completed housing units at the end of the period was 384 (485). The value of these housing units totalled SEK 868 M (1,381). As of 31 December 2024, this figure was 309 and the value totalled SEK 791 M, of which 77 were sold during the quarter and 152 housing units were added from projects that were completed during the period. The Baltics are the underlying cause
of the increase in units, with a number of larger projects being completed during the quarter. The business model in the Baltics involves the sale of housing units normally taking place later in the project cycle. The average value per unit is also lower in the Baltics than in the rest of the Group. The sales rate in several of the completed projects is good.
The number of sold completed housing units not recognised in profit at the end of the period was 50 (80). As of 31 December 2024, this figure was 59.
The sales value of housing units sold in production and completed housing units sold but not yet recognised in profit at the end of the quarter was SEK 4,667 M (3,715) for consumers and SEK 3,426 M (2,876) for investors.

Net investments amounted to SEK 527 M (–357). Currency translation effects positively impacted net investments for the quarter. Excluding these translation effects, these totalled SEK –209 M, with investments in land accounting for the cash outflow.
The change in working capital was SEK –193 M (146), also impacted by currency translation effects. Excluding these translations effects, the change in working capital was SEK 86 M.
Total operating cash flow amounted to SEK 280 M (–207). The total operating cash flow was positively impacted, net, by the currency translation effects, which total SEK 457 M.
Cash flow before financing activities was SEK 26 M (–483). The discrepancy in relation to the operating cash flow is attributable primarily to financial items of SEK –141 M (–111) as well as currency translation effect of SEK –142 M (78).

Bonava's objective is to achieve a cost-efficient capital structure and a good credit rating, taking into account the financing needs of the operation. The Parent Company finances the operation mainly through a syndicated credit agreement and a green bond. To ensure a robust capital structure, Bonava monitors key ratios: the equity/assets ratio, liquidity and net project asset value.
Net debt amounted to SEK 3,058 M (4,282). As of 31 December 2024, net debt was SEK 3,068 M. Cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 438 M and unutilised credit facilities amounted to SEK 1,454 M. Refer further to Note 7. Exchange rate fluctuations decreased net debt by SEK 192 M compared with 31 March 2024, and by SEK 186 M compared with 31 December 2024.
The equity/assets ratio was 41.4 per cent (38.7). As of 31 December 2024, the equity/assets ratio was 41.7 per cent. Bonava's target is for the equity/assets ratio not to fall below 30 per cent.
To ensure control of financial risk, Bonava's target is for the Group's net project asset value to exceed net debt (excluding leases). On the balance sheet date, the ratio between net project asset value to net debt was 1.4, and the target has therefore been met.
At the end of the period, the average fixed-rate term was 0.2 years (0.2), excluding project financing, and the average interest rate was 7.22 per cent (8.49). The maturity rate of tied-up capital for liabilities to credit institutions and investors was 1.9 years at the end of the period. After the end of the period, an ISDA agreement was signed to facilitate interest-rate hedging.
Bonava has a credit agreement totalling EUR 398 M that matures in March of 2027. The agreement encompasses credits and a revolving credit facility (RCF) with recurring quarterly amortisations. Credits under this agreement can be drawn in EUR, SEK and NOK and are divided between fixed-term tranches and an RCF that can be utilised as needed.
In February 2025, Bonava issued secured a green bond of SEK 960 M. The coupon rate on the new bond is Stibor +475 basis points and the tenor is 3.5 years. The previous bond, which due to a step-up structure was significantly more expensive, was redeemed and repurchased at a price corresponding to 102 per cent of the nominal value.
Bonava's syndicated credit agreements include two covenants. The first is that EBIT, with certain contractual adjustments, must exceed determined levels, which vary for each quarter. The second is a level for the lowest amount of available liquidity that the Group is to maintain in the form of cash and cash equivalents or available credits. Both covenants had been fulfilled as of the balance sheet date.
Bonava has had a green financing framework since 2020, which was updated in January of 2025. Under this framework, Bonava can issue bonds and raise loans to fund sustainable residential development. Bonava has issued a green bond loan that is listed on the Nasdaq Sustainable Bond List. Green loans totalled SEK 2,100 M (1,080), with SEK 960 M pertaining to the bond loan.
The bond loan amounts to SEK 960 M.
The syndicated credit limits will be repaid as agreed during the period from December 2024 to March 2027. The outstanding amount for loans raised in EUR was SEK 1,007 M on the balance sheet date.
The amount utilised in the RCF totalled SEK 1,615 M on the balance sheet date, of which SEK 475 M was raised in NOK and SEK 1,140 M in EUR. The unutilised amount totalled SEK 1,262 M.
In addition to the above, there are contractual credit frames for projects in Swedish tenant-owner associations and Finnish housing companies, with SEK 336 M being utilised on the balance sheet date and the contractual unutilised credits totalling SEK 192 M.
In late 2024, Bonava secured financing from local banks for the investment properties in the Baltics. The loans total SEK 152 M (EUR 14 M) and are fully utilised.

Germany is Bonava's largest market. Bonava is one of Germany's most active residential developers, and builds housing units in Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne/Bonn, Stuttgart, Leipzig and Dresden, and in the metropolitan regions of Rhine-Ruhr, Rhine-Main, Rhine-Neckar and the Baltic coast. We offer apartments and single-family homes to consumers, and rental projects to investors.
There is still a shortage of housing units in Germany, which is expected to continue for the foreseeable future, and this topic is high on the political agenda. The offering of new housing units is low, while customers are cautious. Housing prices in large cities are impacted to a greater extent than prices outside these areas. Sales are continuing to gradually increase, but at a slow pace, and we are seeing a cautiously positive trend in the investor market.
Net sales decreased slightly to SEK 991 M (1,044), which is attributable primarily to a sale of land in the comparative period.
Housing units sold to consumers continued to increase, totalling 157 (146), and production of 74 housing units (40) was started in the quarter. The sales rate in ongoing projects also increased, amounting to 72 per cent (60). No housing units for investors were started or sold in the quarter, but a large number of starts have been planned going forward and interest is strong.
The operating gross margin improved to 13.3 per cent (10.9), which is attributable to strong project margins and lower indirect costs.
Operating EBIT amounted to SEK 72 M (54) with an operating EBIT margin of 7.3 per cent (5.2). The improvement is attributable primarily to earnings in ongoing projects.

In Sweden, Bonava offers apartments and single-family homes to consumers in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Linköping, Uppsala and Umeå. We offer rental housing projects to investors across the country.
The housing market in recent years has been under pressure from the high interest-rate scenario that has made customers cautious, with lower sales levels and fewer production starts as a result. The first quarter continued to display higher levels of activity among customers and more stable price levels, with a more positive sentiment among customers. Activity levels in the housing market are increasing, but remain at low levels.
Net sales increased year-on-year to SEK 238 M (213), which is attributable to a larger number of units in production. A sale of land was also completed during the quarter.
Housing units sold to consumers totalled 45 (47), and production of 0 housing units (0) was started.

In Finland, Bonava is active in regions of Helsinki, Tampere and Turku. We offer apartments for consumers and rental projects for investors.
The housing market is concentrated primarily to the metropolitan regions with the largest population growth and expanded infrastructure: Helsinki, Tampere and Turku. The offering of new housing units is decreasing, and prices have begun to stabilise. The housing market in Finland has been impacted by higher interest rates, inflation, and low levels of customer activity but there are positive signs. The transaction volumes have slowly begun to increase, but from low volumes.
Net sales decreased year-on-year to SEK 219 M (279), which was attributable to a lower number of housing units in ongoing production.
During the quarter, 12 housing units (18) were sold to consumers and 0 (0) were started. Housing units in ongoing production decreased to 294 (418). The sales rate for ongoing production remained high, totalling 94 per cent (100).
The operating gross margin was 17.5 per cent (13.8) as a result of improved project margins in both ongoing and completed projects, as well as decreased indirect costs resulting from further savings.
Operating EBIT amounted to SEK 17 M (15) with an improved operating EBIT margin of 7.9 per cent (5.4) year-on-year, which is the result of a better operating gross margin.

The Baltics segment comprises the capital cities of Tallinn, Estonia; Riga, Latvia; and Vilnius in Lithuania. The offering primarily consists of apartments for consumers, which are supplemented by rental projects for investors.
The markets in all three Baltic capitals are growing economies. The favourable market conditions in the Baltic markets remain, with a low level of unemployment and a lack of supply of modern housing units. The prices for new housing units are stable in all markets, with a slight rising trend. We are seeing the highest levels of market activity in Riga. Vilnius is demonstrating a robust improvement in 2025 while Tallinn remains at stable levels. The low standard of the existing housing stock combined with growing demand for rental housing presents opportunities to build and manage these.
Net sales amounted to SEK 161 M (113), as a result of an increased number of housing units in ongoing production: 743 (643).
Housing units sold to consumers increased to 144 (91), driven by sales in Riga. The sales rate for ongoing production increased to 31 per cent (14). Housing starts decreased to 155 (241) as a result of a number of starts that were planned for this quarter being brought forward and started before year-end.
The operating gross margin amounted to SEK 24 M (16) and the operating gross margin increased to 14.8 per cent (14.2), strengthened by the increased volume in Vilnius.
Operating EBIT amounted to SEK 11 M (5) with an operating EBIT margin of 7.0 per cent (4.3).
The occupancy rate in the two investment properties exceeds 95 per cent with a dividend yield of 6.4 per cent, and external financing has been in place since the beginning of the year.

This Interim Report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and recommendation RFR 1 Supplementary Accounting Rules for Groups from the Swedish Financial Reporting Board. This Interim Report covers pages 1–28, and pages 1–15 are thereby an integrated part of this financial report. The accounting policies applied in the preparation of this Interim Report apply to all periods and comply with the accounting policies presented in Note 1 Significant accounting policies in Bonava's 2024 Annual Report, pages 62–65. The Annual Report is available at bonava.com.
Starting on 1 January 2025, the Group will report its segments using a new segment reporting method. The reason is that this new segment reporting method more clearly illustrates how operations are being pursued and create value for the Group. This new segment reporting means that profit/loss from sales of housing units will be
recognised using the percentage of completion method, in contrast to the previously used method according to which profit/loss was recognised when the customer took possession of the housing unit. As in 2024, the segments' profit/loss are also being subjected to certain operating adjustments regarding impairment, sale of land, restructuring costs and acquisition costs. The new segment reporting will be applied as of 1 January 2025, in conjunction with the Executive Management Group changing its method for monitoring the operations.
In this segment reporting, income is recognised over time on the basis of the completion rate (the company's costs on the measurement date in relation to the total expected costs for fulfilling the performance obligation) multiplied by the sales rate (area sold on the measurement date in relation to total area for the performance obligation). Risk is accounted for in the margin upon recognition in profit. This segment reporting means that EBIT in the segments deviates from EBIT according to IFRS. Interest-bearing assets and liabilities are not impacted, and net financial items in the segment reporting are thus the same as in reporting according to IFRS. Tax according to the Group's average tax rate is added/deducted in the segment reporting on the difference in profit before tax that exists between IFRS and segment reporting.
The consolidated balance sheet, cash flow and operating cash flow are not impacted by the amended segment reporting method.
The impact in 2024 of the transition to the amended segment reporting is recognised per segment and for the Group at bonava.com. The comparative figures for 2024 have been recalculated in this report.

Fair value for the financial instruments that are continuously measured at fair value in Bonava's balance sheet is determined on the basis of three levels. No transfers have been made between the levels during the period.
At level 1, Bonava has one outstanding bond loan, the fair value of which deviates only marginally from the carrying amount.
Level 2 derivative instruments comprise currency swaps where the measurement at fair value of currency-forward contracts is based on published forward rates in an active market.
Bonava has no financial instruments in level 3.

The fair value of non-current and current interest-bearing liabilities differs only marginally from the carrying amount and is therefore not recognised separately in this interim report. For financial instruments recognised at amortised cost, the carrying amount of accounts receivable, other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and other interest-free liabilities is considered equal to the fair value.
Investment properties are measured at fair value in accordance with IAS 40. At the balance sheet date, fair value was deemed to correspond to the carrying amount, which is why no unrealised change in value was recognised. Classification is at level 3 according to IFRS 13.

Bonava has signed agreements on the purchase of building rights that are conditional and have not yet been recognised as part of the financial statements. At 31 March 2025, the total value of these commitments was SEK 1,015 M (SEK 1,184 M at 31 December 2024). The investments are expected to be adjusted by SEK 475 M in 2025, SEK 105 M in 2026 and SEK 435 M in 2027 and later. The majority of the reduction in the quarter is attributable to land that was taken into possession in Sweden.
The agreements are often conditional on building permits being received or zoning plans being approved. Additionally, Bonava has signed agreements that provide opportunities for the acquisition of building rights. In cases where this opportunity is taken, this means a future outflow of cash. In cases where this opportunity is not taken, it could entail a cost for Bonava, primarily through impairment of recognised advances.

The Parent Company comprises the operations of Bonava AB (publ). Net sales for the period totalled SEK 41 M (41). Profit after financial items was SEK 22 M (22). In the third quarter of 2024, some of Bonava AB's receivables in subsidiaries were reclassified from current to non-current owing to changes to loan terms, which is the primary reason for the shift between current assets and fixed assets.
