CEO's comments

Once again, we have posted the best quarter ever. Our rental income, our operating surplus and our income from property management have never been this high.

In the third quarter, rental income increased 5 percent to SEK 508 million. In parallel, we reduced operating costs, which resulted in a 7-percent increase in the operating surplus to SEK 403 million, thereby posting a surplus ratio in excess of 79 percent, which is also an all-time high. Naturally, this figure is impacted by seasonal variations, weather and the types of property, but I would also like to highlight our continuous focus on always improving the property portfolio and its management.

Net lettings amounted to a positive SEK 9 million for the quarter, with positive figures from all three Swedish cities. New contracts have been signed with customers including Volvo Cars. This is just one of a number of vehicle-related companies that are now locating R&D activities in Lund and, thereby, leveraging the high-tech skills found at Ideon. Moreover, we have also deepened our partnership with Region Skåne, which is opening a new cardiac centre at the Najaden 14 property in central Helsingborg.

Income from property management also increased by 7 percent to SEK 276 million. In absolute terms, interest expense increased slightly, primarily driven by larger borrowings but also by a rise in average interest rates after the first six months. While bank financing has become slightly more expensive, the terms offered by the capital market remain favourable. At the end of September, we issued a two-year Green bond through Nya Svensk FastighetsFinansiering at an interest rate of 84 basis points over 3-month STIBOR,

which was better terms compared with those achieved for a comparable bond issue this spring.

Our project portfolio remains substantial and we have ongoing projects with a value exceeding SEK 1 billion, of which the largest are the new builds Posthornet 1 in Lund and Sirius 3 in Malmö. The projects are proceeding as planned, both in terms of time schedule and costs.

Once again, Wihlborgs' financial position strengthened during the quarter. The loan-to-value ratio is now 54 percent and the equity/assets ratio is 33 percent, thereby providing us with a stable base to continue to develop and grow. During the quarter, our long-term net asset value (EPRA NAV) grew to more than SEK 177 per share.

The rental market for commercial properties remains healthy. Despite financial and political concerns in our macro environment, the Swedish economy is performing well and we have noted rising employment and, accordingly, increased demand for premises in all our Swedish markets. Despite the high pace of new builds in Malmö,

vacancies are not increasing in the existing portfolio. The property transaction market remains strong and demand for property remains substantial.

The Danish economy is starting to make positive moves and we see favourable possibilities for greater activity in Copenhagen.

Through maintaining continued focus on further enhancing property management and building even closer customer relationships, we will also increase our operating surplus and income from property management moving forward.

For the full-year 2016, our income from property management will exceed SEK 1 billion.

MARKET COMMENTS

In September, Sweden's central bank, the Riksbank, left its repo rate unchanged at -0.5 percent and, as previously decided, continues to purchase government bonds in 2016. The Executive Board of the Riksbank continues to maintain a high level of preparedness to allow adoption of an even more expansive monetary policy if needed. Following inflation figures for both August and September, that were below the expectations of the Riksbank and the market, Nordea now expects the Riksbank to cut interest rates further to -0.6 percent and expand its bond buying programme. The ECB left its key interest rates unchanged in September, at the same time as it decided to continue its bond purchase programme through March 2017. The ECB has also allowed for an extension of the programme.

Business and household sentiment is measured by the Economic Sentiment Indicator (ESI). For September, the ESI rose from 100.1 the preceding month to 103.0, which indicates a somewhat stronger economy than normal. Both companies and households contributed to the upturn, but it was primarily due to the

household confidence indicator increasing from 94.6 to 100.4. All of the parameters contributed to the upswing but it was mainly attributable to households' view on the prospects for the Swedish economy over the next 12 months.

Altogether, business indicators rose to 105.1 in September from 104.1 the preceding month. The commerce confidence indicator had a negative effect, while the indicators for the private service sector and the manufacturing industry had positive impacts. Building and civil engineering, the retail trade and the private service sector reported increased employment over the past three months and indicate a continued positive trend. Increased employment in the private service sector indicates continued healthy demand for premises.

Interest for property investment remains substantial and, according to Newsec, the transaction volume in Sweden over the first three quarters of 2016 totalled SEK 127 billion, up 27 percent year-on-year. Newsec expects the total for 2016 to post a new record of between SEK 180–190 billion.

Income, expenses and profits, Jan–Sep 2016

Comparative figures for income statement items relate to values for the corresponding period 2015 and balance sheet items as of 31-12-2015.

Rental income

Rental income was SEK 1,505 million (1,435). Other revenues from property management was SEK 5 million (32) relating to payments for early lease termination.

The increase in rental income is attributable to property acquisitions, completed projects, renegotiations, new lettings and indexation in contracts.

The total growth in rental income was 5 percent compared with the corresponding period 2015, excluding payments for early lease termination.

The occupancy rate for investment properties, excluding Projects & Land, remains unchanged compared with previous year-end, 91 percent.

During the period new leases were signed to a value of SEK 120 million (146) on an annualized basis. Lease terminations totalled SEK 75 million (142). This represents a net letting income of SEK 45 million (4).

Property expenses

Total property expenses amounted to SEK 371 (370) million. Accordingly, costs are essentially unchanged despite an expanded property portfolio. The historical summary at the foot of page 16 illustrates how costs vary over the different quarters of the year.

Operating surplus

The operating surplus including other income amounted to SEK 1,139 million (1,097). Excluding payments for early lease termination, the operating surplus totalled SEK 1,134 million (1,065), representing a surplus ratio of 75 percent (74).

Central administration

The costs for central administration were SEK 36 million (32).

Financial income and expense

Net interest totalled SEK -331 million (-322), of which interest income accounted for SEK 9 million (7).

The interest expense for the period was SEK 340 million (329).

Thereby, interest expenses were slightly higher year-on-year, primarily due to higher borrowings. At the end of the period, the average interest rate, including the cost of credit agreements, was 2.85 percent, compared with 2.76 percent at year-end.

Income from property management

Income from property management including other income amounted to SEK 772 million (743). Excluding payments for early lease termination, the income from property management amounted to SEK 767 million (711).

Pre-tax profit

The pre-tax profit, i.e. after value changes on properties and derivatives, was SEK 1,663 million (1,697). During the period value changes on properties amounted to SEK 1,442 million (884) and value changes on derivatives amounted to SEK -551 million (70).

Profit after taxes

The profit after taxes was SEK 1,670 million (1,343).

During the period, deferred tax was impacted positively by property sales via companies and the full consolidation of a previously jointly owned company.

Assets Property portfolio as of 30 September 2016

The summaries below are based on Wihlborgs' property portfolio as of 30 September 2016. Rental income relates to contracted rental income on an annual basis as of 1 October 2016.

The surplus ratio is based on the properties' earning capacity on an annual basis based on rental income for October 2016, operating and maintenance costs, property administration on a rolling twelve-month basis, property tax and leasehold rent.

Wihlborgs' property portfolio consists of commercial properties in the Öresund region, located in Malmö, Helsingborg, Lund and Copenhagen. The property portfolio 30 September 2016 consisted of 268 properties (276) with a lettable area of 1,741,000 m2 (1,746,000).

Ten of the properties (11) are leasehold rights. The properties' carrying amount was SEK 30,522 million (28,623), which corresponds to the estimated market value. The total rental value was SEK 2,267 million (2,259) and the contracted rental income on annual basis SEK 2,026 million (1,983).

The economic occupancy rate for Office/Retail properties was

91 percent (92) and for Industrial/Warehousing properties 89 percent (87). The rental value for Office/Retail properties represented 76 percent, Industrial/Warehousing properties 23 percent of the total rental value and the remaining 1 percent is attributable to Projects & Land.

The operating surplus from investment properties, excluding property administration and Projects & Land, is SEK 1,593 million (1,533) which with a carrying amount of SEK 29,253 million (26,263) corresponds to a direct return of 5.4 percent (5.8). Broken down by property category, this is 5.1 percent (5.5) for Office/Retail and 7.4 percent (7.5) for Industrial/Warehousing.

Changes in values of properties

According to an internal valuation of the properties on 30 September 2016, their value had risen by SEK 1,442 million (884).

Fair value is determined by a yield-based method. The value is considered to correspond to the yield value that is calculated from normally five-year cash flow analyses. The value of newbuild projects in progress is determined as the value as if the project were complete, less deduction of the remaining cost. Undeveloped land is valued according to the comparable sales method.

As of 30 September 2016, the carrying amount for the properties was SEK 30,522 million (28,623).

Review Report

Introduction

We have reviewed the interim report for Wihlborgs Fastigheter AB (publ) for the period January 1 - September 30, 2016. The Board of Directors and the President are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review has a different focus and is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and other generally accepted auditing practices. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level

of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed based on an audit.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not, in all material respects, prepared for the Group in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act, and for the Parent Company in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.

KEY FIGURES & DEFINITIONS

Some of the financial metrics that Wihlborgs presents in the interim report are not defined in accordance with IFRS. Wihlborgs is of the opinion that these metrics provide valuable complementary information to investors and the company's management, since they enable evaluation of the company's performance. As all companies do not apply the same approach to calculating these financial metrics, they are not always comparable to metrics used by other companies. Accordingly, these metrics should not be viewed as replacements for metrics defined under IFRS. On the next page, definitions of metrics are presented that, with a few exceptions, are not defined in accordance with IFRS.

Definitions

Key financial ratios

The key ratios are based on the statements of income, financial position, changes in equity and cash flow. Some of the historic data is compiled from the historical summary on page 16.

Return on equity

Profit for the period as a percentage of average equity, excluding non-controlling interests. Average equity refers to the average of the opening and closing values for the respective period. In interim reports, the return is converted to its annualised value without taking account of seasonal variations. The ratio comprises a measure of the profitability in relation to shareholders' equity.

Return on total assets

Earnings before interest, value changes in derivatives and taxes (EBIT) as a percentage of average total assets. Average total assets refers to the average of the opening and closing values for the respective period. In interim reports, the return is converted to its annualised value without taking account of seasonal variations. The ratio comprises a measure of the profitability in relation to the total assets employed.

Equity/assets ratio

Equity as a percentage of total assets at the end of the period.

The ratio provides a measure of the financial strength of the company.

Interest coverage ratio

Income from property management, plus interest expense, divided by interest expense. The ratio measures the degree to which earnings can decline without jeopardising interest payments or, alternatively, how much interest expense can increase before income from property management becomes negative.

Loan-to-value ratio, properties

Borrowings as a percentage of the properties' carrying amounts. The ratio shows the degree of borrowing on the property portfolio.

Debt/equity ratio

Interest-bearing liabilities relative to equity. Interest-bearing liabilities correspond to borrowings in the balance sheet. The ratio illustrates the relationship between borrowings and equity and, thereby, the gearing and financial strength.

Surplus ratio

The operating surplus, excluding payments for early lease termination, shown as a percentage of rental income. In the income statement, the item "other income" is used for payments for early lease termination. The ratio illustrates the proportion of rental income that remains after deducting property management costs.

Investment yield

The operating surplus, excluding payments for early lease termination, shown as a percentage of the properties' average carrying amount. The average carrying amount refers to the average of the opening and closing values for the respective period. In the income statement, the item "other income" is used for payments for early lease termination. In interim reports, the yield is converted to its annualised value without taking account of seasonal variations. The ratio illustrates the yield on the property portfolio without taking account of its financing costs.

Share-related key ratios

Earnings per share for the period Earnings for the period divided by the average number of shares outstanding. Definition according to IFRS.

Earnings per share before tax Earnings per share before tax divided by the average number of shares outstanding.

Income from property management per share Income from property management divided by the average number of shares outstanding.

Cash flows from operating activities per share Cash flows from operating activities divided by the average number of shares outstanding.

Equity per share I

The relationship between the closing balances for equity and the number of shares at the end of the period.

Equity per share II

Calculated as Equity per share I, but not charged with deferred tax. Equity is increased by the addition of the carrying amount for deferred tax liabilities.

Long-term net asset value (EPRA NAV) per share Equity per share following the reversal of interestrate derivatives and deferred tax according to the balance sheet.

Dividend yield per share

Proposed dividend as a percentage of the year-end share price.

Total yield per share

Share price performance plus actual dividend relative to the share price at the start of the year.

P/E ratio I, multiple

Market price per share divided by earnings per share. The multiple is converted to its annualised value without taking account of seasonal variations.

P/E ratio II, multiple

Market price per share divided by income from property management, charged with nominal tax at 22%, per share. The multiple is converted to its annualised value without taking account of seasonal variations.

Property-related key figures*

These key figures are based on the property table on page 11. The table shows the estimated rental value, rental income and property expenses on an annualised basis with an unchanged property portfolio, rental income and lettings portfolio compared with the end of the last quarter.

Rental value

Rental income plus estimated market-level rents for unlet space.

Estimated investment yield

Operating surplus as a percentage of the carrying amount for the properties at the end of the period.

Rental income per m2 Rental income on an annualised basis divided by lettable area.

Operating surplus per m2 Operating surplus divided by lettable area.

Economic occupancy rate Rental income as a percentage of rental value.

Estimated surplus ratio

Operating surplus as a percentage of rental income.

*These key ratios are operational and are not regarded as alternative key ratios according to ESMA´s guidelines.
