Höfånget 1 neighborhood in Malmö, a Lateral Low-Rise apartment block comprising 97 apartments.
"In order to clarify the values that are created in all parts of the chain from project development, prefab and construction to management, the business will be divided into two business areas, Property management and Construction."
This report is presented according to K-Fastigheter's new Business Plan 2028. For more information see Comments from the CEO and the presentation of Business Plan 2028 on pages 3 to 5.
Rental income totaled SEK 146.8 million (114.4) in the period, an increase of 28 percent year-on-year. The increase was primarily due to more apartments under management, which increased by 31 percent to 5,037 apartments (3,833). Net operating income in the Property Management operating segment amounted to SEK 88.0 million (73.4), and profit from property management to SEK 25.3 million (30.7), corresponding to SEK 0.11 (0.14) per share. The result was affected by a relatively lower occupancy rate due to a high rate of completion at the end of 2023 and the associated reduction in surplus ratio. Changes in the value of completed investment properties amounted to SEK -152.6 million (-307.4). From January 2024, rents increased by 5.25 percent.
Income from the Construction operating segment totaled SEK 452.9 million (639.2), including percentage of completion revenue recognition for ongoing new construction of SEK 147.8 million (84.5) Gross profit amounted to SEK 159.5 million (117.0) and profit before changes in value but including percentage of completion revenue recognition totaled SEK 140.2 million (79.6), corresponding to SEK 0.58 per share (0.37). Income was primarily affected by a slower construction trend, with a negative impact on prefab's income, as well as increased percentage of completion revenue recognition in connection with construction starts in the period. The number of apartments in construction at the end of the period was 1,729 (1,986), of which 341 apartments (53) were started in the period.
the debt-to-equity ratio was 59.7 percent (60.2).
value of approximately SEK 1,099m, which corresponded to the properties' market value at the end of the first quarter of 2024.

The Board of K-Fast Holding AB ("K-Fastigheter") has adopted a new business plan for the period 2024-2028. The overarching goal is to achieve Net Asset Value (NAV) of SEK 50 per share by the end of 2028, compared to SEK 24.17 per share as of the end of the first quarter 2024. The Board has also adopted new financial targets and risk mitigation measures.
The business plan implies a change of strategy. From previously constructing properties exclusively for proprietary management and long-term ownership, with the exception of prefab's delivery to external customers, a proportion of the properties built will now be sold to external customers. The aim is to support expansion and self-financing. Divestments may relate to individual properties or portfolios, both new production or from existing holdings, in the form of forward funding or tenant-owned apartments. All project starts will, as previously, be based on rental calculations.
In order to clarify that K-Fastigheter is so much more than a property company and has external customers for its completed projects, as well as for frame construction, the operations will be divided into two operating segments: Property Management and Construction The Construction operating segment will comprise the current business areas Project development, Prefab and Building. The objective is to deliver completed housing units based on the Group's concept houses, developed in-house, as well as high-quality frame solutions. The Property Management operating segment will contribute stable, longterm cash flow through efficient management and high occupancy rates in the Group's residential property holding.
The division into operating segments is a step towards highlighting the values created outside Property Management. The operating segment now termed Construction, has provided 84 percent of Group profit (excluding unrealized value changes on completed investment properties and derivatives) since the financial year 2021 when prefab was incorporated into K-Fastigheter, and 82 percent in the period 2019 to 2023, the years covered by the previous business plan. The
organizational changes should generate value creation for shareholders. For the time being, the segments will operate independently under the Group's umbrella.
In addition to the Group-wide goal relating to NAV, the operational targets are: profit from property management of SEK 1.50 per share in the Property Management operating segment, and earnings per share of SEK 4.50 in the Construction operating segment by the end of 2028.


Jacob Karlsson, CEO of K-Fast Holding AB
Market conditions in the construction and property sector remain challenging. This also applies to K-Fastigheter, and we are sensitive to this. Nevertheless, we started construction on 341 apartments in the projects Sävenäs in Gothenburg and Vapenrocken in Västerås during the first quarter. In the final quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024, we started construction of a total of 592 apartments in four different projects.
While the current market conditions remain challenging, we know that there is substantial underlying demand for new housing in Sweden. This means that being active on the market for housing construction and ownership of rental apartments harbors clear promise. The Board has set a new strategy and adopted a new business plan with the aim of optimizing K-Fastigheter's ability to generate shareholder value in the
current market conditions, and in the market conditions expected to prevail over the coming 5-year period. My aim here is to outline the new business plan in more detail.
The overarching goal of the business plan for the 5-year period 2024- 2028 is to achieve NAV of SEK 50 per share by the end of 2028. This means that we will more than double NAV of SEK 24.17 per share at the end of the first quarter 2024. This is an ambitious but realistic goal, although growth between years may vary. In order to achieve this, we need to change our strategy. Our focus on construction exclusively for proprietary ownership has served the company's growth well historically, generating average growth in NAV of 25 percent per annum in the period 2019-2023. However, we also perceive business opportunities for K-Fastigheter to build and divest our concept buildings to external customers. This supports expansion and increases self-financing. Divestments can be made in various ways, ranging from individual properties to entire portfolios, in the form of forward funding or tenant-owned apartments. However, all project starts, unless a customer has already been secured, will be based on rental calculations.
K-Fastigheter is so much more than a property company, but is frequently known, evaluated and valued as a focused property company. The business areas not associated with property management also contribute most to profit, both historically and looking ahead. In order to clarify the values created across all parts of the chain from project development, prefab and construction through to management, the operations will be divided into two operating segments, Property Management and Construction. By organizing the project development, prefab and construction activities under the Construction operating segment and differentiating this from Property Management, we increase organizational clarity. Construction is responsible for selling a proportion of new production, in addition to prefabs frame contracting, to external customers. By collating these operations under the Construction operating segment, we increase clarity for K-Fastigheter's valuation and evaluation, while simultaneously creating efficient organizational resources for providing an attractive customer offering. This is regardless of whether this relates to total responsibility for production of properties or delivery of frames. Future segment reporting will be presented under these two operating

* Profit excl. unrealized value changes on completed investment properties and derivatives
segments. K-Fastigheter will thus comprise a focused and independent construction company, and a focused and independent residential property company under the same umbrella.
In historical terms, the business areas now organized under the Construction operating segment have provided over 80 percent of the Group's profit. This applies both to the five-year period up until 2023 encompassed by our previous business plan, and the period 2021-2023 during which prefab has formed part of K-Fastigheter's operations. Nevertheless, we have frequently been assessed as a focused property company. Against this background, the division into two operating segments should provide clarity that contributes to increased value creation for shareholders.
The Construction operating segment will thus comprise the current business areas Project development, Prefab and Building. The operations will deliver completed housing units based on our concept houses, developed in-house, as well as high-quality frame contracting for all types of building, including housing, offices, school, defense facilities and infrastructure. All types of delivery are made to external customers and for proprietary ownership. The goal is to achieve earnings per share of SEK 4.50 in the Construction operating segment by the end of 2028. The Property Management operating segment includes the activities that are comparable with other property companies, i.e. our property holding which primarily comprises rental apartments with as much as 92 percent of income derived from housing units. Through efficient management and high occupancy rates in our property holding focused on housing, the operating segment will create stable, long-term cash flow. For Property Management, the goal is to achieve profit from property management of SEK 1.50 per share by the end of 2028.
I am firmly convinced that K-Fastigheter's efficient chain that we call "from foundation to finished home" can also serve the Group well, not only by building for proprietary management, but also by delivering high-quality housing units based on our concept buildings to external customers.
The Property Management organization continues to work hard to reduce vacancies. We continue to see vacancies on moving in for some completed projects, but overall the trend is heading in the right direction. The Property Management organization has started addressing the vacancies that arose following completion of a number of projects with a total of 806 apartments in the final quarter of 2023. The financial occupancy rate was 93.3 percent at the end of the quarter, against 91.9 percent at the end of 2023. As previously outlined, efforts to reduce vacancies is a priority although it will take some time to address this. In the first quarter, we experienced positive net letting of 144 residential agreements, although there is some delay between signing a contract and moving in.
We have previously announced that the order situation in the prefab business area is unbalanced during the year with lower occupancy in the first half of 2024 while the second half has production levels similar to those prevailing before the market faltered. The trend of a shift in production levels is clear with two large orders signed during the quarter for housing in Nacka and for training and storage premises on LV6 in Halmstad. The future looks positive for prefab once we get through the first half of the year's lower occupancy. I am proud of everyone in the organization who managed to fill up in a short time the order books when the housing market stopped, to today consisting of many exciting projects in defence, infrastructure and community properties.
After the end of the period, a transfer agreement concerning a portfolio of 311 apartments in the Copenhagen area was signed. The agreement is conditional and underlying conditions are expected to be met during the first half of May. The buyer is an institutional investor and K-Fastigheter is ceding the properties during the month of June. I am very pleased that we were able to bring this deal one step closer to completion. The deal is based on an underlying property value of SEK 1,099 million. For us, it is a strategic choice to prioritize new construction of our own concept houses over the management of
commercial properties and residential properties that are not built according to our own concepts. Against this background, sales processes concerning a number of commercial objects and some residential properties in our portfolio are also ongoing.
As a step towards further strengthening the Balance Sheet, during the quarter we completed a directed new issue utilizing the remaining mandate from the AGM 2023 of 5,820,0000 Class B shares, plus the Extraordinary General Meeting's decision in April to issue a further 842,000 Class B shares. It is worth noting that the issue was completed without a discount at the closing price on the day of the Board resolution that authorized the share issue.
Alongside all my colleagues throughout the Group, I look forward to continuing to develop K-Fastigheter on the basis of our strategy and business plan, thereby contributing to social progress.

The Group's Construction operations comprise activities in project development, prefab manufacture of frame solutions, and construction management, which are divided into the business areas Project development, Prefab and Building. The operations are carried out in offices in Hässleholm, Malmö, Gothenburg and Stockholm, with six production plants for prefab elements located in Hässleholm, Östra Grevie, Vara, Hultsfred, Katrineholm and Strängnäs, as well as a factory for lightweight construction elements in wood in Hässleholm. In total, the Construction operations had 448 employees at the end of the period.
The operations within project development are based on acquisitions, primarily of building rights, but also of land without planning permission, where our own architects, ground projectors and zoning and planning permission officers pursue detailed plans and planning permission for the Group's concept buildings, developed in-house: Low-Rise, Lateral Low-Rise and Apartment Block, as well as a proprietary concept building for commercial premises, K-Commercial. For more information on K-Fastigheter's concept buildings, see page 20. At the end of the period, the project development portfolio comprised 2,693 apartments at various stages, of which 1,251 where in the planning application process. In the period, agreements relating to the acquisition of building rights were terminated, where the commercial terms or conditions were no longer considered to be sufficiently attractive in terms of price or geographical location.
Under the K-Prefab brand, the Group pursues frame construction for complete frame solutions in wood and concrete for housing, properties for public use, industrial and warehousing properties, infrastructure and agriculture. The frame construction operations include construction, production and assembly using in-house personnel, and the frame solutions comprise sandwich walls, homogeneous interior walls, elevator shafts and joists with embedded installations for electricity, water and ventilation, external wall units, balconies and stairs. K-Prefab's customers comprise Group companies, where all frame elements included in the Group's concept buildings are supplied by K-Prefab, as well as external operators. Prefabrication frames ensure better working conditions, superior cost and quality control, reduces waste and improves compatibility, production and just-in-time delivery for our projects. At the end of the period, K-Prefab had 75 ongoing frame
contracting projects, with a total outstanding order value of SEK 1,118.5 million (733.6), and K-Prefab won several major orders in the quarter, particularly for frame deliveries for housing construction. Furthermore, deliveries have started for NCC's construction of new training and storage premises for the Swedish Armed Forces in Halmstad, constituting a frame delivery with an order value of SEK 105 million.
The Group's construction operations are responsible for building and completing the Group's concept buildings. Working with a high degree of prefabrication, repetitive processes and specialized tasks ensures efficient cost control and an effective construction process. At the end of the period, the Group had 16 ongoing construction projects relating to concept buildings, with a total outstanding order value of SEK 1,664.1 million (1,554.9), divided over 1,729 apartments, as well as the construction of Hässleholm Rusthållaren 3 & 4. Rusthållaren encompasses 8,000 square meters of lettable area, much of which will be home to the Group's new head office. K-Fastigheter started construction of 341 apartments in the period.

The Property Management operating segment manages the properties the Group has built or acquired. The operations are divided into three regions: South, West and East, where region South encompasses Skåne, Denmark and southern Småland, region West encompasses Halland and Västra Götaland and region East encompasses the Mälardalen region, Nyköping and Gävle. The operating segment had 47 employees at the end of the period.
At the end of the period, the Group's holding comprised 121 whollyowned and 2 part-owned completed investment properties over a total of 329,518 square meters housing, and 42,740 square meters of commercial space over 5,037 apartments and approximately 140 commercial contracts.
Of the property holding, 66 percent was built after 2020 and a total of 88 percent after 2010. Newsec assesses that all the properties are in category A or B locations in the communities where the Group operates. Rental value at the end of the period was SEK 685.9 million and contractual rent was SEK 640.2 million. 92 percent of contractual rent from commercial tenants is distributed over some 170 commercial contracts, with the largest tenant accounting for approximately 1 percent of total contractual rental income, and the 10 largest commercial tenants accounting for approximately 4 percent of total contractual rental income.
The part-owned holding exclusively comprised K-Fastigheter's partnership with Kilenkrysset AB, which is a collaboration relating to the construction and management of K-Fastigheter's concept buildings in Nyköping, Strängnäs and Örebro.
On March 7, 2024, K-Fastigheter signed a letter of intent with an institutional investor regarding the sale of four properties in the Copenhagen area consisting of a total of 311 apartments. On April 24, 2024, the parties entered into a conditional transfer agreement according to which K-Fastigheter will relinquish the properties during the month of June 2024. The deal is based on an underlying property value of approximately SEK 1,099m, which corresponded to the properties' market value at the end of the first quarter of 2024. Furthermore, K-Fastigheter divested a residential care home and two preschools, and contracted two Swedish advisors for the divestment of non-strategic holdings in the quarter.

Contractual rent refers to the annualized contract value as of the record date, and rental value refers to contractual rent plus estimated rent for vacant spaces. Costs refer to budgeted property costs and costs for property administration and central administration, annualized and based on historical outturns. The information does not include an assessment of future rent trends, vacancy rates, property costs, interest rates, changes in value, acquisitions or divestments of properties, or other factors. Costs for interest-bearing liabilities have been based on current interest-bearing liabilities and current interest rates (including effects of derivative instruments) at the end of the period. Information regarding construction projects and project development in progress are based on estimates of the size, focus and scope of construction projects and project development in progress, and of when projects are scheduled to commence and be completed. These details are also based on estimates regarding future investments and rental value. The estimates and judgments entail uncertainties regarding the execution, design and scale, scheduling, project costs and future rental value of the projects. Details of projects in progress are reviewed regularly and estimates and judgments are adjusted as a result of projects in progress being completed or new ones being added, as well as due to changes in conditions. Financing has not been secured for projects where construction has yet to commence, meaning that financing of construction investments in project development represents a source of uncertainty. The estimates and judgments involve uncertainties and the disclosures above should not be viewed as a forecast.
Information relating to current earnings ability and future progress in rental value and the number of completed apartments refers to completed investment properties at the end of the period plus the investment properties in ongoing new construction at the end of the period. Projects where construction has not started have not been included.
Each quarter, K-Fastigheter conducts an external independent valuation of all completed investment properties and properties under construction. The valuation forms the basis for fair value recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and the change in value is recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement. All investment properties have been assessed as level 3 in the value hierarchy in accordance with IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement.
At the end of the period, the value of the Group's investment properties amounted to SEK 15,337.6 million (14,870.9) which is an increase of 466.7 percent compared to 31 December 2023.
In the first quarter, the direct return requirement for completed valuations increased by an average of 0.05 percentage points, which affects market value of the Group's investment properties negatively. At the same time, actual outcomes of rent negotiations ahead of 2024 and changed expectations regarding future rent inflation affected valuations positively. The overall effect for comparable properties is negative value growth of 0.1 percent in the quarter.
The fact that the market value of completed investment properties nevertheless decreased by SEK 153 million in the quarter was primarily due to the impairment of market values in completed and ongoing transactions, where the sale of the Danish portfolio was the most material, which affected value change in the quarter by SEK 99 million. The value change in ongoing construction, which segment reporting recognizes in gross profit as percentage of completion, was primarily due to gradually completed investment properties in construction, and the start of two construction projects in the period.
The fact that the total value of investment properties is nevertheless increasing, was mainly due to completions and ongoing construction projects in progress where new construction, extensions and remodeling amounted to SEK 461.7 million (588.2) in the period.

At the end of the period, K-Fastigheter financed its assets exclusively through bilateral loans with Nordic banks. K-Fastigheter currently works exclusively with variable interest rate loans. Interest rate derivatives, primarily interest rate swaps, are used to adjust the period of fixed interest.
At the end of the period, the Group's interest-bearing liabilities amounted to SEK 10,342.4 million (10,117.8), an increase of SEK 224.6 million compared to 31 December 2023. The change largely relates to increased utilization of building rights and the conversion of construction credits to long-term financing in connection with completion of investment properties.
The debt-to-equity ratio for the Group amounted to 59.7 percent (60.2) and the loan-to-value ratio for completed investment properties totaled 62.6 percent (62.5). The reduction in the debt-to-equity ratio was mainly due to amortization in the quarter, including the promissory note relating to the acquisition of K-Prefab, which was amortized in full in the quarter.
The average interest rate increased to 3.38 percent (3.22) in the period, primarily due to the conversion of building credits to long-term financing, which also affected the variable interest portion as no new swap contracts were entered into in the period. In the period, shortterm market interest rates remained stable while long-term market rates increased, which had a positive impact on the value of the interest rate derivative portfolio.

Rental income in the period amounted to SEK 146.8 million (114.4), up 28 percent year-on-year. The increase was primarily due to more apartments under management, which increased by 31 percent to 5,037 apartments (3,833). From January 2024, rents increased by approximately 5.25 percent.
Operating costs for the period were SEK 58.8 million (41.4), an increase of 42 percent, primarily affected by normal seasonal variations and an increased number of apartments under management.
Profit for the second quarter for the property management business area was SEK 88.0 million (73.4), and SEK 25.3 million (30.7) for the period, corresponding to SEK 0.11 (0.14) per share. Profit was affected by a relatively lower financial occupancy rate resulting from a high rate of completion towards the end of 2023 and associated lower surplus ratio, which amounted to 60.0 percent (64.2) in the period. The average financial occupancy rate was 88.7 percent (95.0) in the period, but gradually improved and the financial occupancy rate was 93.3 percent (95.8) at the end of the period, compared to 91.9 percent at the start of the year. The letting ratio is generally slightly lower initially in projects that have been completed and where tenants moved in over the past year, while the financial letting ratio remains very high in the parts of the holding that have been under management for an extended period, which means that we expect the letting ratio to improve gradually in 2024 as a result of a lower rate of completion compared to 2023.
The operating segment's share of central administration costs was SEK 2.8 million (1.8) and depreciation, amortization and impairment was SEK 0.5 million (0.1) in the period. Net financial items for the period was SEK 59.4 million (40.8), with the increase primarily derived from higher interest-bearing liabilities as a result of more apartments under management and higher average interest rates. The value change attributable to interest rate derivatives was SEK 59.7 million (-55.9) in the period, where the change was due to higher long-term market interest rates.
Value change in completed investment properties amounted to SEK
-152.6 million (-307.4), primarily affected by impairment of the market value of the Danish portfolio at the expected sales value, and an increased direct return requirement (negative), and changed expectations relating to future rental inflation (positive) in the market valuations for the quarter.
Income for the Construction operations totaled SEK 452.9 million (639.2), including percentage of completion revenue recognition in ongoing new construction of SEK 147.8 million (84.5) for the year. Income in the period was affected by a weaker construction trend, with external sales totaling SEK 78.0 million (174.7). As several major orders were won in the period, however, the order book looks good ahead of this fall and the coming year. Construction of concept buildings was significant in the period and high levels of internal activity partly offset lower income from external customers. Total income related to construction of concept buildings amounted to SEK 375.0 million (464.5) including percentage of completion revenue recognition in the period. The number of apartments in construction was 1.729 (1,986) at the end of the period, and construction started on 341 apartments (53) in the period.
Gross profit amounted to SEK 159.5 (117.0), positively affected by increased percentage of completion revenue recognition and negatively affected by lower income for external construction.
The operating segment's share of central administration costs was SEK 10.5 million (9.1), and depreciation, amortization and impairment SEK 14.5 million (16.2) in the period. Net financial items for the period was SEK 4.3 million (9.0), with the decrease primarily due to lower interest-bearing liabilities, including the promissory note relating to the acquisition of K-Prefab, which was amortized in full in the quarter, and currency effects. During the period, interest expenses on construction credits of SEK 53.2 million (29.5) were capitalized.
Profit/loss from participations in associated and jointly controlled companies amounted to SEK 10.0 million (-3.1). Profit/loss was primarily affected by K-Fastigheter's share of profit in Mjöbäcks Entreprenad AB and Novum Samhällsfastigheter AB.
Profit before changes in value but including percentage of completion revenue recognition in ongoing new construction amounted to SEK 140.2 million (79.6), corresponding to SEK 0.58 (0.37) per share.
Central administration costs, which includes Group-wide management, business development, legal, procurement, IR/communications, marketing, HR, IT and finance, amounted to SEK 16.6 million (12.1) in the period. Of this, SEK 13.3 million (10.8) was allocated to the respective operating segment in the period.
Group-wide depreciation, amortization and impairment and net financial items in the period was SEK 1.5 million (0.7) and SEK +0.6 million (+0.9) respectively. The Group's rolling 12-month interest coverage ratio was a multiple of 1.6 (2.1), a figure adversely affected by lower net interest income which was not fully offset by increased gross profit. With a gradually improving financial occupancy rate in the Property Management operating segment and increased income in the Construction operating segment, interest coverage is expected to increase.
Current tax for the period amounted to SEK -2.8 million (-0.2). Deferred tax amounted to SEK -30.0 million (56.7), primarily affected by unrealized changes in values in properties.
Profit for the period was SEK 35.5 million (-195.8), corresponding to SEK 0.15 per share attributable to Parent Company shareholders (-0.91). Comprehensive income for the period totaled SEK 41.0 million (-191.2). Other comprehensive income includes translation differences relating to K-Fastigheter's foreign operations, which totaled SEK 5.5 million (4.6) for the period. The full amount relates to items that can be reversed in a later period.
Intangible assets comprise goodwill and other intangible assets primarily arising in connection with the acquisition of K-Prefab. At the end of the period, goodwill amounted to SEK 443.6 million (443.6), and other intangible assets, comprising the value of K-Prefab's customer relations an capitalized system development costs, amounted to SEK 25.7 million (27.7).
At the end of the period, the value of investment properties totaled SEK 15,337.6 million (14,870.9), distributed over completed investment properties of SEK 12,833.4 million (12,514.0), undeveloped land and building rights of SEK 576.2 million (578.1), site leases of SEK 18.0 million (18.0) and construction in progress of SEK 1,910.0 million (1,760.8). For more information, see the Property portfolio and Valuation sections.
The value of business properties and equipment at the end of the period amounted to SEK 514.4 million (537.1) and SEK 183.2 million (181.4) respectively.

At the end of the period, cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 26.5 million (5.8). In addition, K-Fastigheter has an unutilized overdraft facility of SEK 6.0 million (147.3).
At the end of the period, Group equity amounted to SEK 5,250.4 million (5,100.4), which corresponded to SEK 21.19 per share attributable to Parent Company shareholders (21.08). The change was in part due to total income for the period of SEK 41.0 million (-191.2), and in part to the completed new issues, which increased equity by a total of SEK 109.0 million after transaction expenses. The new issue conditional on approval of the Extraordinary General Meeting on 8 April 2024 has not been included in this report. At the end of the period, the Group's equity/asset ratio was 30.3 percent (30.3).
At the end of the period, the long-term net asset value (NAV) amounted to SEK 5,925.2 million (5,803.5), corresponding to SEK 24.17 per share (24.25) attributable to Parent Company shareholders, which is a marginal decrease compared to 31 December 2023.
At the end of the period, the Group's interest-bearing liabilities amounted to SEK 10,342.4 million (10,117.8), of which SEK 3,553.4 million (3,462.8) was classified as current interest-bearing liabilities. The debt-to-equity ratio for the Group amounted to 59.7 percent (60.2). Of the Group's interest-bearing liabilities, SEK 8,035.9 million (7,822.8) related to completed investment properties (including construction credits not converted at the end of the period), and the loan-to-value ratio for completed investment properties was 62.6 percent (62.5). The increase in interest-bearing liabilities and loan-to-value ratio was primarily due to financing of construction in progress and completed new constructions, as well as lower valuations of completed investment properties. The market value of the Group's interest rate and exchange rate derivatives at the end of the period totaled SEK 200.4 million (141.4). For more information, see the Financing section.

In the Interim Report, K-Fastigheter presents certain financial measures that are not defined in accordance with IFRS. K-Fastigheter believes that these measures provide valuable additional information to investors and management as they enable assessment of the company's performance. Since not all companies calculate financial measures in the same way, these are not always comparable to measurements used by other companies. Accordingly, these financial measures should not be considered as a replacement for measures defined in accordance with IFRS. The table to the right presents financial measures that are not defined in accordance with IFRS.

Compared to the Annual Report 2023, KPIs have been complemented by Earnings per share for the Construction operating segment. Otherwise, definitions of the alternative KPIs have not changed.

Preparing financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires Group management to make assessments, estimates and judgments that affect how accounting principles are applied and the carrying amounts for assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and judgments are based on historical experience and other factors that appear reasonable under the prevailing circumstances. The results of these estimates and judgments are then applied in assessing the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, which would not otherwise be evident from other sources. Actual outcomes may deviate from these estimates and judgments. For a more detailed description of material judgments and assumptions, refer to the Annual Report 2023 Note 3 Income, Note 15 Intangible assets and Note 16 Investment properties.
K-Fastigheter's operations, financial position and profit can be affected, directly or indirectly, by a number of risks, uncertainty and external factors, where the effect on Group operating profit can be controlled to varying degrees. To limit risk exposure the Group applies internal regulatory frameworks, policies and control systems. K-Fastigheter's significant risks, exposure and management are described in the 2023 Annual Report.
K-Fast Holding AB adheres to the IFRS standards adopted by the EU. This Year-end report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Annual Accounts Act. Disclosures in accordance with IAS 34.
The Group and Parent Company measures all financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost, with the exception of derivative instruments, which are measured at fair value through the Income Statement. In K-Fastigheter's assessment the carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities valued at amortized cost represents a good approximation of fair value. For further details, see Note 22, Financial risk and finance policies in the 2023 Annual Report. As a result of changes relating to the Group's operating segments,
segment reporting was adjusted in Q1. Segment reporting follows the Group's internal reporting and monitoring. In this and future reports, value change in investment properties under construction has been recognized as income affecting the Construction operating segment's gross profit. This is a departure from Group IFRS reporting practices where value change in investment properties under construction is recognized separately and affects profit before tax. For more information see page 12.
For complete accounting principles, please refer to K-Fast Holding AB's 2023 Annual Report.
K- Properties's offering shall meet market demand for attractive and flexible housing at the right cost. This occurs through ownership of investment properties and by delivering completed housing units and frame construction for housing. In addition, the Group delivers frame solutions for warehousing and logistics facilities, properties for public use, defense and infrastructure. The Group's concept houses, developed in-house, form the basis for the completed housing units. The Group's concept buildings, developed in-house, generate conditions for cost control and financial efficiency throughout the chain, from building rights to property management. There is substantial demand for new housing in Sweden. It is the Group's view that demand remains favorable in Skåne, particularly in the Öresund region and in the Västra Götaland and Mälardalen regions, and in areas with structural housing shortages.
Property management is associated with certain seasonal variations primarily in charges related to heating costs. With regard to construction operations, seasonality is mainly associated with weather and holiday periods, which means that performance in the first quarter, the summer months, and December normally is weaker than in the rest of the year.

This information is such that K-Fast Holding AB is obliged to disclose in accordance with the EU's Market Abuse Regulation. The information was submitted for publication, through the agency of the contact person set out above, at 9:00 a.m. CEST on 25 April 2024.

Dirigenten– 15 Low-Rise apartments
K-Fastigheter's flexible one to three-story multifamily dwellings can be constructed either as semi-detached houses, terraced houses or link houses with one or two-story apartments. The apartments are available in four sizes: one bedroom, living room and kitchen totaling 60 square meters; two bedrooms, living room and kitchen totaling 75 square meters; three bedrooms, living room and kitchen totaling 90 square meters; and three bedrooms, living room and kitchen totaling 94 square meters on two stories.

Kedjan – 34 Lateral Low-Rise apartments
K-Fastigheter's neighborhood-structure multifamily dwellings can be constructed up to ten stories high. There are two standard space-efficient apartment formats for Lateral Low-Rise buildings: one bedroom, a living room and a kitchen totaling 51 square meters and two bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen totaling 67 square meters. It is also possible to include apartment alternatives that are either larger or smaller. To meet market demand and make the best possible use of building rights, K-Fastigheter has chosen to make its Lateral Low-Rise as adaptable as possible with regard to floor plans, with opportunities for underground garages and commercial premises on the ground floor, for example.

Hällan – 39 Apartment Block apartments
K-Fastigheter's Apartment Blocks are squarefootprint multi-family dwellings that can be from four to ten stories high. The Apartment Blocks have four apartments on each floor: two with one bedroom, a living room and a kitchen totaling 62 square meters and two with two bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen totaling 71 square meters. All apartments are equipped with spacious 27-square-meter balconies facing two directions. The Apartment Block is particularly suited for construction on difficult terrain because multiple designs are available for the ground floor. For example, on plots with uneven terrain, the ground floor can be constructed to include a semibasement. K-Fastigheter has continued to develop the Apartment Block concept on the basis of this experience, resulting in the concept Apartment Block Plus. Apartment Block Plus is a rectangular structure containing six apartments per story. Apartment Block Plus is a hybrid, which allows for more choice, and can be built as a freestanding apartment block, or as two buildings connected at the gables, which creates a structure visually similar to K-Fastigheter's Lateral Low-Rise housing units.

HÄSSLEHOLM HÄSSLEHOLM K-Commercial
The Group has developed a fourth concept building. As a complement to the residential buildings, K-Fastigheter has developed a concept building for commercial premises under the name of K-Commercial.
K-Commercial is a multi-story building constructed with prefabricated concrete elements. The floor plan can be adjusted according to customer requirements, including uses such as reception, restaurant, gym or traditional office spaces, due to the open plan design. The office floors can be adjusted to accommodate one or several companies by dividing the floor plan into separate spaces, making K-Commercial an attractive solution for small and large businesses alike.
