Operations and strategy
Pioneer Property Group ASA (PPG) is an investment company with a real estate focus. The current real estate portfolio of PPG includes the following segments:
-
- Preschools
-
- Hotel Properties
-
- Retail Properties
-
- Property Development
-
- Office Properties
PPG invest in real estate within these segments and enter into long-term leases with leading operators. PPG's real estate portfolio at the end of first half of 2025 consisted of three properties in the preschools segment, six properties in the retail properties segment, fifteen properties in the hotel properties segment, one office property in addition to seven properties in the property development segment. The movements during HY25 in this respect are related to the de-recognition of Evenes-properties as consolidated company.
In addition, PPG now holds joint ventures of six hotel properties, the latest being the acquisition of 50% of Horten Hotell in Q1 2025.
Key material events during the first half of 2025
During first half of 2025, PPG has declared quarterly dividends to the holders of preference shares in total NOK 5.00 per preference share. As per the articles of association §5, the annual dividend to the holders of preference shares is NOK 10.00 per preference share.
The first half of 2025 has been another strong period for the hotel segment, like it has been since the end of the pandemic in 2023. The contractual rental income has increased compared to 2024, mostly due to the acquisition of Norlandia Holding AS, increasing the annual rent for the hotel segment by approximately NOK 60 million on annual basis. It is expected that the hotel segment will stay strong throughout 2025.
On the other side, higher interest rates have increased interest cost for PPG. In June 2025, the committee of Norges Bank decided to reduce the policy rate from 4.50 percent to 4.25 percent, and it is expected that interest cost will be reduced in 2H 2025. The fair value of properties has been slightly positively adjusted, mostly explained by the expectation of lower interest rates going forward and CPI rent-adjustments.
PPG acquired 50% of the shares in Horten Hotell Eiendom AS from Pancom AS. The joint venture company owns Horten Hotell, and the purchase price of the shares were set based on a property value of MNOK 130, settled through a combination of cash and a vendor note. It is planned an expansion of 60 new hotel rooms, expected to be financed by obtaining additional bank financing.
Evenes Holding is treated as an associate company, as the ownership were reduced to 43.3 in the end of 2024. The derecognition of Evenes Holding has reduced Investment property and Evenes Holding is accounted as an
associate company. On the other hand, Norlandia Holding is consolidated line by line, and increases the investment property in the accounts. The net effect from 1H 2024 to 1H 2025 is an increase in Investment properties.

Pioneer Retail Properties AS was established to procure and build facilities for retail properties, mainly for the Ferda group, all over Norway. The motorhome market to which Ferda is exposed has been challenging during the last couple of years, as higher interest rates have led to a contraction in the overall market. In 2024 the fair value adjustment of the properties led out to Ferda were reduced by MNOK 6. The Retail Properties segment consists of six retail properties owned by PPG. Total lease income for the first half of 2025 for the retail properties segment amounted to MNOK 17.2 in 1H 2025, compared to 17.4 in 1H 2024, with a fair property value based on third party valuations per 30.06.25 of MNOK 426.0. The decrease in property value and lease income is due to the sale of Døvikveien 22 in H2 2024 and the derecognition of Ferda Evenes as an associated company.

The fair property value for the hotel segment, based on third party valuations per 30.06.25, is MNOK 1 556.9.

All of the hotel properties, except Forus Hotell, are rented out to Norlandia Hotel Group, who operates the hotels on franchise agreements with leading hotel brands.

In 2025, the lease income relates to a warehouse property in Mo i Rana, in addition to the newly established parking lot at Gardermoen airport. In 2024, the lease income mainly related to the parking income of the property in Evenes Airport, which now is accounted as associate company.
PPG now holds close to 2.000 parking spaces with the establishment of a parking lot, close to the hotel in Gardermoen. The parking lot opened in first half of 2025 and is expected to generate a lease income in 2025 of MNOK 1.5, with an expected increase to MNOK 4.0 in 2026.
In 2025, Evenes Holding AS is treated as an associated and the rental income and investment properties is not consolidated into the accounts.
At Evenes, the property east of E10 which was purchased in 2021, has now completed the construction of premises for Tesla. The financing of the construction was secured through a bank loan and Tesla will pay lease from June 2025.
Other existing projects within the segments include a housing project of 400 – 450 units in Mo i Rana, also in Northern Norway with local partners.
At Brennemoen nearby Mysen, PPG is working together with Studio City Norway AS in order to develop a studio city, with film, tv-studios backlots etc, as well as potentially expanding the current hotel at the location.

All projects are long term in nature.

Subsequent events since the end of the first half of 2025

Overview of the financial accounts for the first half of 2025
Contractual rental income from the first half of 2025 was MNOK 76.3 compared to MNOK 49.0 for the first half of 2024. The rent increase in first half of 2025 represents an increase of approximately 56%. The increase is related to rent income from the acquisition of new properties through the purchase of additional shares in Norlandia Holding AS in Q4 2024, now recognized as a subsidiary, together with CPI-adjustments of minimum rent and strong first half year of revenue from the hotel operation, resulting in lease payments above the minimum rent for some properties.
Operating profit (EBIT) from continued operations for the first half of 2025 was a positive MNOK 56.8 compared to MNOK 44.1 for the first half of 2024. Profitability for the first half of 2025 was positively impacted by fair value adjustments related to the hotel segment of the portfolio.

Net finance for the first half of 2025 amounted to a negative MNOK 35.9, compared to MNOK 28.4 for the first half of 2024.

Profit for the first half of 2025 for total operations amounted to MNOK 14.2, compared to MNOK 17.5 for the first half of 2024. The increased lease income has been offset by increasing interest cost. The fair value adjustment in 1H 2025 is in line with the fair value adjustment in 1H 2024.
