COMMENTS FROM THE CEO

Jacob Karlsson, CEO of K-Fast Holding AB

The fourth quarter was an intense period for K-Fastigheter. The Construction business area completed 806 apartments in the final three months of the year. This was a record for the operations, and can be compared to 726 apartments completed by the business area for all of 2022. In addition, completion and moving in continued in January 2024 for a number of apartments. We were able to welcome many tenants into their new homes, one of the most enjoyable aspects of working in the property sector.

At the same time, we cannot shy away from the fact that some locations face challenging conditions. This has meant that some projects have excessively high vacancies on moving in, which impact our vacancies as we have expanded rapidly and completed many projects in a short period of time. We are working hard to adjust this imbalance. In this context, I would like to emphasize that succession letting is making positive progress, and that the higher vacancies are due to high levels and delays in different new production projects. New production projects also means that, in some cases, tenancies stipulate moving in at a later date than on completion. Reducing the number of vacancies is a priority, and this will take some time to resolve fully. The prospects for achieving this are good in the first half-year, as we anticipate a more steady rate of completions for new projects, i.e. less concentrated than during the final quarter of 2023. This improves the conditions for our letting operations.

During the year, our portfolio expanded by 1,168 apartments, and by the end of the year we had 4,876 apartments under management. This represents an increase of an incredible 31 percent on the previous year. At the end of the year, rental values totaled SEK 661 million, an increase of 35 percent over the year. The increase was over 26 percent in the final quarter, indicating the high rate of completion in the concluding months of the year. In terms of market value, as much as 66 percent of the property holding as of 31 December 2023 was constructed after 2020. As previously stated, some tenants moved in during January, which means that they were not included in the full-year figures for

  1. As of the date of this report, K-Fastigheter had a holding of 4,999 apartments with a rental value of SEK 677 million under management. As we eliminate our remaining vacancies, the surplus ratio and profit from property management will increase.

Approximately 80 percent of our property holding is excluded from collective rent negotiations. In this part of the holding, rents increased by 5.45 percent on January 1, 2024. For the part of the holding subject to collective rent negotiations, rent increases were just under 5 percent. The cost increases that have arisen were not fully covered, including when these rent increase are taken into account. I anticipate that this will be compensated for, but that it will take place over time. This will also contribute to improved profit from property management.

Interest rates are now stabilizing. In addition, lower base rates can now be expected earlier than forecast, in line with the Riksbank's statement on interest rates from early February. This is a positive development that provides the property and construction sector a new normal to proceed from. K-Fastigheter remains aligned with around a dozen different banks, entirely without bond financing. At the end of the quarter, 91 percent of our interest-bearing liabilities related to acquisition financing, with completed investment and business properties hedged at an average interest rate of 3.22 percent. The average interest period was 3.5 years.

There is still extensive underlying demand for new housing in Sweden, and my faith in rental apartments remains solid.

A MESSAGE FROM THE CEO (CONT.)

Through our efficient process for controlling the construction chain from foundation to finished home, K-Fastigheter is able to continue to start new construction projects even in the current climate, while simultaneously satisfying our direct return requirement. We are continuing to strengthen our Balance Sheet in order to start new construction projects and capitalize on opportunities to acquire building rights as they arise. For our part, it is a strategic choice to prioritize new construction of our own concept buildings ahead of management of commercial properties and residential properties not constructed according to our proprietary concepts. Accordingly, the ongoing divestment of the portfolio of four properties in the Copenhagen region continues and we expect to divest the portfolio in the second quarter of 2024. We have also appointed advisors to assist with the divestment of a number of non-strategic holdings in Sweden focused on commercial premises, as well as a few residential properties that are not our own concept buildings. In the quarter, we divested the office property Rådhuset 6 in Helsingborg and, after the end of the quarter, we divested two preschools and

a residential care home, as well as entering into a new agreement relating to the divestment of one fifth of our holding in Mjöbäcks Entreprenad. Alongside the new issue completed in fall 2023, this ensures the right conditions are in place for K-Fastigheter's continued expansion and development.

The market value of our existing properties was marginally negatively affected in the final quarter. Rent increases ahead of 2024 contributed to limiting the downturn. A high rate of completions, new construction starts and acquisitions of building rights ensure that property values are increasing despite the lower valuations. In total, we increased property values by just over 14 percent in 2023, to close to SEK 15 billion. Our efficient process involving concept buildings generates significant unrealized values in ongoing new construction. This represents a strength in more challenging market conditions. For the sake of clarity, I would like to emphasize that our valuations are undertaken by an external valuer on a quarterly basis.

We are continuing to gradually adapt operations in the Prefab business area in order to meet the volumes required over the coming months. Our order book for the coming year could be described as imbalanced. In the short term, we face a tough period with lower capacity utilization, followed by a rapid increase in activity during the second half of 2024. This follows successful sales efforts with several major key contracts signed, including agreements for residential properties at Orminge Torg in Nacka, and premises for Fortifikationsverket at LV6 i Halmstad. Production levels in the second half of the year can be described as similar to those prevailing before the market downturn started. By gradually adapting operations, we expect to satisfy increased volumes in the second half of the year through efficient operations, a sharper customer focus, as well as collaboration and optimization between our production plants. The sharp slowdown in housing construction in Sweden has implied increased diversification in the Prefab operations, which is illustrated by our ability to deliver for projects in areas such as infrastructure, defense facilities and properties for public use.

A MESSAGE FROM THE CEO (CONT.)

Overall, I am confident about Prefab's operations with our own volumes as the foundation, plus deliveries to external customers over and above that.

At the end of the year, our financial and operational targets expired. I am able to conclude that we succeeded in achieving most of the targets over an economic cycle. Net asset value has increased by 378 percent since the reference year 2018, and annual growth per share was 25 percent. Profit from property management increased by 163 percent and annual growth per share was 12 percent, which was below our annual growth target of 20 percent. For all years, we exceeded the minimum level for equity/assets and debt-to-equity, while our interest coverage ratio of 1.7 at the end of 2023 was slightly below our target level of 1.75. Interest coverage ratio, which continues to exceed the levels stipulated in our loan agreements, is set to improve gradually at a pace with stronger profit from property management and normalizing sales in the Prefab business area.

With regard to our operational goals, we clearly exceeded the target of 80 percent of rental revenue derived from residential properties. The target of 1,300 annual construction starts by the end of 2023 was revised downwards to the previous target of 1,000 in connection with the Interim Report for the first quarter 2023. For 2023, we did not reach our target of 1,000 construction starts for reasons including lengthy planning approval processes and more challenging funding conditions. We started construction 0f a total of 450 apartments in 2023. We effectively reached our target of 5,000 apartments under management as of the date of this report, as we now have 4,999 apartments under management. This represents incredible progress, and I cannot thank all the Group's current and previous employees enough, who have all contributed to making this possible.

But we will not rest on our laurels. K-Fastigheter remains an aggressive and innovative market operator. In connection with the Interim Report 2024 for the first quarter, we will be presenting a new business plan and targets for the period 2024–2028. Our ambition is also to present these in more detail at a Capital Markets Day in Stockholm. I do not want to preempt the presentation of the

new business plan, but I can say that our focus on construction and management of our proprietary concept buildings will intensify. I confidently look forward to continuing to build on our business model, which now also includes the Prefab business area in the new business plan and targets. K-Fastigheter's business model has proven strong in challenging market conditions. From this position, we can enter a more favorable market climate from a position of strength.

We strive to be an attractive employer where each individual can have an influence and opportunities for personal development within the Group. Accordingly, I am very proud that we were awarded the prize Career Company 2024. This is evidence that we are on the right path, and will help us to recruit the best and most motivated employees to join us on our development journey. A journey where we offer our tenants pleasant and secure homes in the form of rental apartments of a high standard.

- Jacob Karlsson, CEO, February 2024

PROPERTY PORTFOLIO AND VALUATION

From the current report onwards, accounting of propertyrelated key performance indicators has changed to reflect the inclusion of 100 percent of the property holding in property-related key performance indicators for part-owned companies consolidated in K-Fastigheter Group's financial statements, and the inclusion of the percentage ownership stake in property-related key performance indicators for part-owned companies not consolidated in K-Fastigheter Group's financial statements. As of 31 December 2023, only part-owned company K-Fast Kilen AB was included, which is 51 percent owned by K-Fastigheter and 49 percent by Kilenkrysset AB. Only the comparative figures for no. of construction starts, apartments, no. of apartments under construction and no. of apartments in project development were affected by the above changes.

Property portfolio

On 31 December 2023, the Group's property portfolio comprised 121 wholly-owned and 2 part-owned completed investment properties1 , distributed over a total of 318,664 square meters of residential and 44,142 square meters of commercial space. Furthermore, the Group had 17 ongoing construction projects, distributed over 99,450 square meters of residential space and 975 square meters of commercial space, 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 and will therefore be classified as business property. Furthermore, K-Fastigheter has 24 projects in progress in the project development phase, at various stages of building permit application or project planning, of which 15 are projects for which K-Fastigheter has yet to take possession of the land.

Of the property holding, 66 percent was built after 2020 and a total of 88 percent after 2010. Newsec assesses that all of the properties are in category A or B locations in the communities where the Group operates. As of 31 December 2023, contractual rent amounted to SEK 607.7 million, with an estimated operating surplus of SEK 431.3 million, corresponding to a surplus ratio of some 71 percent.

The corresponding potential surplus ratio is approximately 74 percent for newly produced concept buildings and approximately 64 percent for other properties in the portfolio. Of the contractual rent, 92 percent pertains to housing or related rentals (such as parking) divided between the 4,876 apartments under management at the end of the year. Contractual rent from commercial tenants is distributed over some 165 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.

As of 31 December, 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. As of 31 December 2023, the completed holding comprised a total of 63 apartments with a market value of SEK 174.2 million, and a rental value of SEK 9.0 million. Furthermore, an additional 681 apartments were in construction and project development at the end of the period. K-Fastigheter holds 51 percent of part-owned company K-Fast Kilen AB, implying that the joint venture was consolidated in K-Fastigheter's financial statements.

K-Fastigheter's management operations are divided into three regions: South, West and East. 80 percent of property values are located in region South, encompassing Skåne, Denmark and southern Småland. Region West encompasses Halland and the Västra Götaland region. Region East includes the Mälardalen region and Nyköping and Gävle. As of 31 December 2023, 91 percent of the market value and 91 percent of the contractual rent related to investment properties in Sweden and 9 percent of the market value and 9 percent of the contractual rents related to investment properties in Denmark.

Valuation

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 year, the value of investment properties totaled SEK 14,870.9 million (13,094.6), distributed over completed investment properties of SEK 12,514.0 million (9,775.3), undeveloped land and building rights of SEK 578.1 million (695.1), site leases of SEK 18.0 million (18.0) and construction in progress of SEK 2,429.6 million SEK 1,760.8 million (2,606.1). During the year, SEK 2,151.9 million (1,886.2) was invested in new construction, extensions and remodeling. During the year, acquisitions totaled SEK 210.9 million (830.3) . Divestments in the year totaled SEK 136.0 million (9.5).

The value change for the year totaled SEK -316.3 million (699.0), of which realized value change for investment properties was SEK 7.9 million (0.0). Unrealized value changes in investment properties for the year were SEK -324.2 million (699.0), distributed over SEK -654.8 million (5.1) for properties under management and SEK 330.6 million (693.9) for construction projects in progress. During the fourth quarter, the direct return requirement in external valuations of completed properties and properties under construction increased by approximately 0.1 percentage points due to changed market conditions. The average rent increase ahead of 2024 was 5.25 percent. All in all, the change means that the market value for completed properties and properties under construction during the quarter decreased by 0.2 percent. Since the second quarter 2022, the corresponding downturn was approximately -6.0 percent for comparable investment properties, negatively affected by an increased direct return requirement of approximately 0.6 percentage points and increased costs for operations and maintenance, offset by increased rents and expectations of future rent inflation.

At the end of the year, the average direct return requirement in the valuation of new construction in progress was 4.33 percent (4.01). On completion, the estimated market value of the construction in progress amounted to SEK 4,611.1 million (6,251.4).

The average direct return requirement for properties under management at the end of the year was 4.37 percent (4.03) and for the full property portfolio, including undeveloped land, building rights and construction in progress, the average direct return was 4.36 percent (4.02). The fact that the increase in the average direct return requirement during the year was not higher, taking into account the general increase during the last twelve months, was primarily because K-Fastigheter's property portfolio increasingly includes a higher proportion of homes in better locations.

Important information regarding the tables on pages 6 to 10

Information on completed investment properties includes estimates and judgments. Contractual rent refers to the contract value on the balance sheet date recalculated at an annualized rate. Rental value refers to contractual rent plus estimated rent for vacant spaces. Property costs refer to budgeted property costs on an annual basis and are exclusive of property administration. The estimates and judgments involve uncertainties and the disclosures above should not be viewed as a forecast.

Details of construction projects and project development in progress on pages 6 and 7 are based on assessments 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. These estimates and judgments should not be viewed as a forecast. 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.

CURRENT EARNINGS ABILITY

The table to the right presents the earnings ability for K-Fastigheter's completed investment properties plus investment properties under construction as of 31 December 2023. Projects where construction has not started have not been included. Earnings ability is not a forecast for the current year or later periods but is to be viewed solely as a theoretical snapshot and is presented for illustrative purposes only. Current earnings ability 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.

Current earnings ability is based on properties held and properties under construction as of 31 December 2023 and their financing, meaning that current earnings ability illustrates the earnings of the management operations, on an annual basis, at that point in time. The Income Statement for the management operations is also affected by developments in the value of the property portfolio, as well as by upcoming property acquisitions and/or divestments. Additional items affecting earnings include changes in the value of derivatives. None of the above has been taken into account in current earnings ability, nor in the item Profit from participations in associated companies.

Earnings ability is based on contractual and estimated rental income from the property portfolio, estimated property costs for the year based on historical outcomes for properties under management, as well as property administration costs and central administration costs relating to the Property Management business area estimated for the year based on the current scale of administration. 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 year.

Expected rental trend and number of apartments

The diagram to the right illustrates the number of apartments and current rental values for completed investment properties as of 31 December 2023 plus expected rental values of ongoing construction projects relating to investment properties as of 31 December 2023 at a pace with these properties being completed.

Information on completed investment properties and construction projects in progress includes estimates and judgments. Rental value refers to contractual rent plus estimated rent for vacant spaces. The estimates and judgments involve uncertainties and the information in the diagram should not be viewed as a forecast.

FINANCING

Liabilities and derivatives portfolio

At the end of the year, K-Fastigheter financed its assets exclusively through bilateral loans with Nordic banks. Consolidated interestbearing liabilities amounted to SEK 10,117.8 million (8,461.4), of which SEK 3,462.8 million (2,049.9) were classified as current interest-bearing liabilities at year end. Interest-bearing liabilities are distributed between first mortgages for completed investment and business properties of SEK 6,747.9 million (5,743.2), building credits of SEK 2,077.9 million (1,591.2), leasing liabilities of SEK 92.1 million (93.1), operating and acquisition credits of SEK 949.9 million (783.8) and a promissory note relating to the acquisition of K-Prefab of SEK 250.0 million (250.0). The debt-to-equity ratio for the Group amounted to 60.2 percent (55.4) and the loan-to-value ratio for completed investment properties totaled 62.5 percent (58.2). The increase in the debt-to-equity ratio and loan-to-value ratio was primarily due to lower valuations of completed investment properties.

At the end of the year, the Group had contracted credit agreements of SEK 10,781.7 million (9,671.6), of which SEK 6,747.9 million (5,743.2) related to the financing of completed investment and business properties, of which SEK 2,319.1 million (1,706.9) mature for renegotiation within the next 12 months. In addition to the financing of completed investment and business properties, contracted credit agreements comprise building credits of SEK

2,937.6 million (2,867.1) and operating and acquisition credits of SEK 1,096.3 million (1,061.3), of which SEK 202.5 million (292.5) and SEK 68.8 million (93.8) relates to acquisition financing of K-Prefab and Mjöbäcks Entreprenad AB respectively. At the end of the period, building credits and operating and acquisition credits had been utilized at an amount of SEK 2,077.9 million (1,591.2) and SEK 949.9 million (783.8) respectively.

As per 31 December 2023, the average credit term for the Group's interest-bearing liabilities, relating to acquisition financing and completed investment properties and operational premises was 2.8 years (2.4).

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. Nominally, the swap portfolio totaled SEK 6,371.7 million (4,407.7) at the end of the year. At the

* Relates to K-Fast Kilen AB as of 31 December 2023, which is 51% owned by K-Fastigheter. At the end of 2023, construction credits for completed jointly-owned properties had not yet been rearranged. Approximately SEK 111.3 million of existing construction credits related to completed jointly-owned investment properties.

end of the year, the fair value of the interest derivative portfolio was SEK 157.3 million (404.9). The average interest period for the Group's interest-bearing liabilities related to acquisition financing, investment and business properties was 3.5 years (3.4), and the average interest rate was 3.22 percent (2.72), including the effects of interest rate derivatives, and 5.47 percent (3.85) excluding the effects of interest rate derivatives. The interest rate stabilized in the fourth quarter as a result of stabilizing market rates and increased interest hedging, where the fixed rate for completed hedges was lower than the variable rate. The average interest expense in relation to contracted building credits amounted to 5.95 percent (3.92) at the end of the year. The total proportion of variable interest in relation to interest bearing liabilities related to acquisition financing, investment and business properties was 9 percent (27), and the interest rate sensitivity in increased interest costs in the event of a 1 percentage point shift in loan rates amounted to SEK 6.5 million (17.2).

In order to increase the degree of hedging and to hedge new loans as building credits are converted into long-term financing, during 2023 we have continued to focus on restructuring elements of the swap portfolio. This has been achieved by closing older swaps and using the accrued market value in new swaps with shorter terms but with a higher swap volume and fixed interest rates that are far lower than the market interest rate for equivalent swaps at a given time and with a particular term. In combination with new swap contracts signed in 2023, we expanded the swap portfolio by SEK 1,964.0 million, decreased the proportion of variable interest from 27 to 9 percent, and reduced interest sensitivity from SEK 17.2 million to SEK 6.5 million, while the debt portfolio relating to completed investment properties increased by 17 percent. The average period of fixed interest has not been affected because the shorter terms in the swap portfolio have been mitigated by the higher degree of hedging and the total average interest rate has been positively impacted because the new swaps have lower fixed interest rates than the variable interest on the underlying loans in the debt portfolio.

Otherwise, with regard to financing and financial risk, please refer to the 2022 Annual Report (Financing section and Note 22 Financial risks and finance policy).

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME JANUARY–DECEMBER 2023

The following profit and cash flow items relate to the 1 January - 31 December 2023. Comparative items relate to the previous year. Balance Sheet items and comparative figures relate to the position at the end of the current and previous year respectively. All amounts are indicated in SEK million.

Income

Comprehensive income amounted to SEK 247.1 million (334.5) for the fourth quarter 2023, and to SEK 1,094.8 million (1,406.0) for the year. Rental income amounted to SEK 128.7 million (109.1) for the fourth quarter, and to SEK 480.2 million (384.2) for the year, an increase of 18 and 25 percent respectively year-on-year. The increase was primarily due to more apartments under management, which increased by 31 percent to 4,876 apartments (3,708) during the year. The financial letting ratio gradually declined in the year due to the high rate of completion, reaching 91.9 percent (97.3) at the end 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.

Income from project and contracting operations for the fourth quarter amounted to SEK 490.1 million (573.4) and to SEK 2,022.0 million (2,038.8) for the year, of which SEK 1,419.0 million(1,037.6) related to construction for Group companies that has been capitalized for the Group's own purposes. The increase was due to continued high activity in the construction of apartments for proprietary management, with some 800 apartments completed in the fourth quarter 2023. At year-end 1,549 apartments (2,171) were in construction. External income for project and contracting operations amounted to SEK 603.0 million (1,001.2) for the year, of which Prefab's income was SEK 594.2 million (993.5). In Prefab, total income for the year amounted to SEK 982.3 million (1,251.0), of which SEK 381.9 million (249.6) related to intra-Group sales. Prefab's income decreased in the year, partly as a result of increasingly challenging market conditions, and partly due to delays in a handful agreed projects. Despite this, Prefab was able to maintain and increase total income, mainly as a result of higher internal sales.

Operating costs

Property management costs totaled SEK 179.7 million (144.7) for the year, an increase of 24 percent compared to the previous year. Costs for the period include potential electricity subsidies of SEK 3.2 million. The operating surplus amounted to SEK 306.1 million (251.9), up 22 percent year-on-year. The increased costs compared to the previous year were primarily due to more apartments under management, and because the company included central management-related costs in property administration from the end of the first half 2022. The surplus ratio for the fourth quarter was 57.2 percent (59.8), and 63.7 percent (65.6) for the year. The lower surplus ratio was mainly due to reduced average occupancy, which was 92.6 percent (95.8) for the year, and to rising costs for property administration with the intention of preparing the organization for future growth, particularly in the fourth quarter 2023 when tenants moved in to some 800 apartments. Operating costs for management operations normally vary according to a seasonal pattern, where costs are higher in the first and fourth quarters compared to the other quarters, which also affects the surplus ratio for these periods.

Costs relating to the project and contracting operations comprise direct project-related costs and fixed costs for the construction and Prefab organization. Costs for the year include potential electricity subsidies of SEK 3.0 million that K-Fastigheter has applied for. The part of operations involving external construction and production has been reported in the Income Statement. Project and contracting operations for proprietary property management activities have been capitalized as work for the Group's own purposes, and have been recognized net in the Income Statement under Project and contracting costs. Gross profit for the year was SEK 30.6 million (5.0) for the Construction business area, and SEK 58.6 million (66.3) for Prefab. During the year, gross profit in the Construction business area was positively impacted by a high level of activity in intra-Group projects. The Prefab business area's gross profit was positively affected by more stable costs compared to 2022, and negatively affected by reduced income and productivity due to personnel cutbacks during the year with the aim of adapting the organization to current sales levels.

Central administration costs, depreciation/amortization and impairment

Central administration, which includes Group-wide management, business development, legal, procurement, IR/communications, marketing, HR, IT and finance, amounted to SEK 55.6 million (54.9) for the period. The relatively stable level of central administration costs compared to the corresponding period in the previous year was partly due to lower non-recurring costs, and to the fact that from the end of June 2022, management and project development costs have been allocated to property administration costs and project and construction costs respectively.

Depreciation/amortization and impairment for the year amounted to SEK 80.5 million (62.6). Total depreciation/amortization was SEK 61.5 million (59.3), of which SEK 12.0 million (11.0) was attributable to amortization of intangible assets for the year. Total impairment for the period amounted to SEK 19.0 million (3.2), of which SEK 16.5 million was attributable to impairment of equipment and business

properties in connection with the divestment of Prefab's operations in Borensberg.

Profit from participations in associated and jointly controlled companies

Profit from participations in associated and jointly controlled companies for the year amounted to SEK 25.9 million (2.5). Profit/ loss was primarily affected by K-Fastigheter's share of profit in PVS Mark & VA Holding AB, Mjöbäcks Entreprenad AB and Novum Samhällsfastigheter AB, and the sale of a completed tenant-owner association in Hässleholm.

Net financial items and net interest income

Net financial items amounted to SEK -218.2 million (124.8) for the year, of which net interest income comprised SEK -220.2 million (124.8). At the end of the year, the average interest level was 3.22 percent (2.72), including the effects of interest rate derivatives. The interest rate stabilized in the fourth quarter as a result of more stable market rates and increased interest hedging, where the fixed rate in completed hedges was below the variable rate. During the year, interest expenses on building credits of SEK 178.5 million (59.1) were capitalized. The average interest expense in relation to contracted building credits amounted to 5.95 percent (3.92) at the end of the year. Interest expenses in the period were negatively affected by increased interest-bearing liabilities for new construction, and higher base rates, in year-on-year terms. The interest coverage ratio for the year was a multiple of 1.7 (2.2), a figure adversely affected by lower net interest income which was not fully offset by increased gross profit. With a gradually improving occupancy rate looking ahead, interest coverage ratio is expected to increase.

Profit from property management

Profit from property management amounted to SEK 14,2 million (27.1) for the fourth quarter and to SEK 108,3 million (130.7) for the year, a decrease of 47 and 17 percent respectively year-on-year. Profit from property management for the period includes costs of SEK 2.6 million related to previous periods in the year. Profit from property management per share amounted to SEK 0,49 for the year attributable to the Parent Company shareholders (0.61), a decrease of 19 percent year-on-year. The decrease was mainly due to lower net interest income which was not fully offset by increased gross profit, which was also negatively affected by relatively lower average occupancy in the year.

Changes in value

Value changes in the quarter amounted to SEK 36.8 million (86.2), and SEK -316.3 million (699.0) for the year, of which realized value changes for investment properties totaled SEK 7.9 million (0.0). Unrealized changes in value for investment properties were SEK 28.9 million (86.2) for the fourth quarter and SEK -324.2 million (699.0) for the year, of which SEK -654.8 million (5.1) for properties under management and SEK 330.6 million (693.9) for construction in progress. During the fourth quarter, the direct return requirement in external valuations of completed properties and properties under construction increased by approximately 0.1 percentage points due to changed market conditions. The rent increase ahead of 2024 averages 5.25 percent. All in all, the change means that the market value for completed properties and properties under construction during the quarter decreased by 0.2 percent. Since the second quarter 2022, the corresponding downturn was approximately -6.0 percent for comparable investment properties, negatively affected by an increased direct return requirement of approximately 0.6 percentage points and increased costs for operations and maintenance, offset by increased rents and expectations of future rent inflation.

The average direct return requirement for K-Fastigheter's entire property portfolio, including undeveloped land and building rights and new construction in progress, amounted to 4.36 percent (4.02) at the end of the year. The fact that the increase in the average direct return requirement during the year was not higher, taking into account the general increase during the last twelve months, is primarily because K-Fastigheter's property portfolio increasingly consists of a higher proportion of homes in better locations. For more information, see the Property portfolio and Valuation sections.

Changes in the value of derivatives amounted to SEK -262.6 million (364.1) for the year. The trend during the year was primarily caused by lower market interest rates, which had a negative impact on the market value of the Group's interest rate derivatives. The fair value of the Group's interest rate and derivatives derivatives was SEK 141.4 million (399.1) at the end of the year. The change in value for interest rate derivatives does not affect cash flow, and at maturity the value of the derivatives is always zero.

Tax

Current tax for the year amounted to SEK +1.3 million (-11.6). Deferred tax was positive for the year, amounting to SEK +112.3 million (-227.4), mainly affected by unrealized value changes on properties.

Profit, comprehensive income and other comprehensive income for the year

Profit for the fourth quarter was SEK -159.3 million (94.2), and SEK -398.1 million (907.4) for the year, corresponding to SEK -1.96 (4.13) per share attributable to the Parent Company shareholders. Comprehensive income for the year totaled SEK -392.8 million (934.8). Other comprehensive income includes translation differences relating to K-Fastigheter's foreign operations, which totaled SEK 5.3 million (27.4) for the year.

FINANCIAL POSITION AS OF 31 DECEMBER 2023

Intangible assets

Intangible assets comprise goodwill and other intangible assets primarily arising in connection with the acquisition of K-Prefab. At the end of the year, 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 27.7 million (36.6).

Investment properties

At the end of the year, the value of investment properties totaled SEK 14,870.9 million (13,094.6), distributed over completed investment properties of SEK 12,514.0 million (9,775.3), undeveloped land and building rights of SEK 578.1 million (695.1), site leases of SEK 18.0 million (18.0) and construction in progress of SEK 1,760.8 million (2,606.1). For more information, see the Property portfolio and Valuation sections.

Business properties and equipment

The value of business properties and equipment at year-end amounted to SEK 537.1 million (447.6) and SEK 181.4 million (193.6) respectively. The value increase for business properties was primarily due to reclassification of Hässleholm Rusthållaren 3 & 4, relating to the construction of new head offices for the Group.

Cash and cash equivalents

At the end of the year, cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 5.8 million (35.4). In addition, K-Fastigheter has an unutilized overdraft facility of SEK 147.3 million (277.4).

Equity and net asset value

At the end of the year, consolidated equity amounted to SEK 5,100.4 million (5,169.6), corresponding to SEK 21.08 per share (23.92). The change was in part due to total income for the period of SEK -392.8 million (934.8), and in part to the completed new issue, which increased equity by a total of SEK 323.0 million after transaction expenses. At the end of the year, the Group's equity/asset ratio was 30.3 percent (33.9).

At the end of the year, long-term net asset value (NAV) amounted to SEK 5,803.5 million (5,768.3), corresponding to SEK 24.25 per share (26.79) attributable to Parent Company shareholders, a decrease of 9 percent compared to 31 December 2022.

Interest-bearing liabilities and interest rate derivatives

Consolidated interest-bearing liabilities amounted to SEK 10,117.8 million (8,461.4), of which SEK 3,462.8 million (2,049.9) were classified as current interest-bearing liabilities at year end. The debt-to-equity ratio for the Group amounted to 60.2 percent

(55.4). Of the Group's interest-bearing liabilities, SEK 6,747.9 million (5,743.2) related to completed investment and business properties, and the loan-to-value ratio for completed investment properties was 62.5 percent (58.2). 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 totaled SEK 141.4 million (399.1) at the end of the year. For more information, see the Financing section.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

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.

Definitions and information about KPIs can be found at k-fastigheter.com/en/investors/

From the current report onwards, accounting of propertyrelated key performance indicators has changed to reflect the inclusion of 100 percent of the property holding in property-related key performance indicators for part-owned companies consolidated in K-Fastigheter Group's financial statements, and the inclusion of the percentage ownership stake in property-related key performance indicators for part-owned companies not consolidated in K-Fastigheter Group's financial statements. As of 31 December 2023, only the part-owned company K-Fast Kilen AB was included, which is 51 percent owned by K-Fastigheter and 49 percent by Kilenkrysset AB. Only the comparative figures for no. of construction starts, apartments, no. of apartments under construction and no. of apartments in project development were affected by the above changes.

Compared with the 2022 Annual Report, the definitions of the alternative key performance indicators have not changed.

OTHER INFORMATION

Opportunities and risks for the Group

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.

K-Fastigheter's operations, financial position and profit may be affected, directly or indirectly, by a number of risks, uncertainties and external factors, where the effect on the Group's operating profit can be controlled to a varying degree. 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 2022 Annual Report.

Effects of the war in Ukraine

At the time of preparing the current Year-end Report, the war in the Ukraine has been underway for almost two years. To date, the war has had a significant but not material effect on K-Fastigheter's operations, and has so far mainly affected the pricing of certain input goods, maybe above all steel and energy prices. It has also had the indirect effect of increasing energy and fuel prices, as well as higher interest expenses.

The impact of the war in Ukraine on K-Fastigheter's future operations remains uncertain, but assessments will be carried out regularly and will be reported in future Interim Reports. Additional information may also be presented through press releases.

Market outlook

K-Fastigheter's offering meets the market's demand for quality housing at the right cost. 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. 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.

Seasonal variations

Property management is associated with certain seasonal variations primarily in charges related to heating costs. With regard to contracting operations, seasonality is mainly associated with weather and holiday periods, which means that performance in the first quarter, the summer months, and December is weaker than in the rest of the year.

Accounting principles

K-Fast Holding AB adheres to the IFRS standards adopted by the EU. This Interim Report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish 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.

K-FASTIGHETER'S CONCEPT BUILDINGS

Low-Rise – flexible buildings with a wide range of choice

K-Fastigheter's flexible one to three-story multi-family 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, a living room and a kitchen totaling 60 square meters; two bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen totaling 75 square meters; three bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen totaling 90 square meters; and three bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen on two stories totaling 94 square meters.

Structural details:

Ground level foundation plate, homogeneous separating walls and joists, with lightweight external wall units.

HELSINGBORG ÄLMHULT HÄSSLEHOLM Dirigenten– 15 Low-Rise apartments Kedjan – 34 Lateral Low-Rise apartments Hällan – 39 Apartment Block apartments

Lateral Low-Rise – variation and space efficiency

K-Fastigheter's neighborhood-structure multi-family 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 have 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.

Structural details:

Entirely concrete structure with sandwich exterior walls, uniform walls separating apartments and floor units. Exterior walls can be constructed as half sandwich with a brick or slate façade, or alternatively lightweight construction towards the courtyard in order to minimize the load on potential underlying garages.

Apartment Block – residential buildings for any location

K-Fastigheter's Apartment Blocks are square-footprint 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 semi-basement. 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.

Structural details:

Entirely concrete structure with sandwich exterior walls, uniform walls separating apartments and floor units. The roof is available in three options: pent, pitched or hipped. The facade color can be individualized and there is a selection of balcony railings to choose from.

K-FASTIGHETER – MORE THAN A PROPERTY COMPANY

K-Fast Holding AB ("K-Fastigheter") is a project development, construction, prefab and property company focused primarily on rental housing properties, which, as of 31 December 2023, accounted for 94 percent of the property value of the completed property portfolio and for 92 percent of the contractual rent. As of 31 December 2023, K-Fastigheter's property portfolio encompasses a lettable area of approximately 363,000 square meters distributed between more than 4,876 homes and 165 commercial contracts with an annual rental value of some SEK 608 million. The project portfolio also comprises over 5,725 apartments under construction and in project development.

Overarching goals

K-Fastigheter's overarching goal is to generate value for the company's shareholders. Over a business cycle, value creation is measured as growth in long-term net asset value per share.

Operational targets

In the long term, rental income from housing is to comprise at least 80 percent of K-Fastigheter's total rental income.

At the end of 2023, K-Fastigheter is to manage at least 5,000 apartments in the Nordic region.

Financial targets

  • Over an economic cycle, growth in long-term net asset value per share is to average at least 20 percent annually, including any value transfers.
  • Over an economic cycle, annual growth in profit per share from property management is to average at least 20 percent.

The aim is to ensure growth in net asset value and profit from property management while maintaining a stable and sound financial position, and balanced financial risk-taking, meaning:

  • The Group equity/assets ratio shall amount to at least 25 percent.
  • The interest coverage ratio shall amount to a minimum of 1.75 x.
  • Over time, the debt-to-equity ratio is not to exceed 70 percent relative to the market value of the Group's investment properties.

Sustainability and value creation

For K-Fastigheter, sustainability is a concept that spans more dimensions than focusing solely on environmental impact. K-Fastigheter values commitment in its own operations, and commitment to sustainability issues that are high on the agenda of the Group's customers, suppliers and public authorities.

K-Fastigheter mainly pursues initiatives in product development, procurement and social sustainability. K-Fastigheter's business concept is to construct concept buildings, that is, a limited number of alternative buildings that can be adapted to each location. The foundation is a systematic working method, providing optimal resource utilization and ensuring both superior quality and a beneficial working environment. By using an industrial process in proprietary production facilities, consumption of materials, logistics and other resources can be planned in detail, reducing waste, streamlining flows and lowering costs in areas that do not create value.

Since early 2019, electricity in K-Fastigheter's properties has been procured exclusively from suppliers offering electricity from renewable sources, mainly wind power. Since the second quarter of 2021, K-Fastigheter has been installing solar panels on all new-build Lateral Low-Rise buildings and Apartment Blocks. The Group has also begun installing solar panels on its production facilities.

K-Fastigheter participates in Global Compact, the UN's principles for business governing human rights, working environment, anticorruption and the environment.
