Interim Report January-September 2010

  • Profit after tax for the period was SEK 818 million (-356), equivalent to SEK 3.97 per share (-1.73). The higher profit can be explained by a positive change in the value of the property holdings amounting to SEK 552 million (-1,058).
  • Gross profit from property management totalled SEK 686 million (699). The change can be explained mainly by a slight rise in the rental vacancy level.
  • The fair value of the property holdings was set at SEK 19.1 billion (18.1 at the year-end). The increase can be explained by rising rent levels and a slightly lower direct yield requirement as well as investments.
  • The net asset value was SEK 65 per share (62 at the year-end).
  • The equity ratio was 55 per cent, the net loan-to-value ratio was 17 per cent and the interest coverage ratio multiple was 7.7.
  • Consolidated net revenue amounted to SEK 1,027 million (1,020).
  • The rental vacancy level at the period-end was 6.1 per cent (6.2 at the yearend).
  • For the third year in succession, Hufvudstaden has the most satisfied office tenants according to the Fastighetsbarometern Customer Satisfaction Survey.

RESULTS

Property management1

Gross profit for the period totalled SEK 686.0 million (699.2), a fall of 2 per cent. The fall can be attributed to a slightly higher rental vacancy level and increased costs as a result of the severe winter. Net rents from property management during the period totalled SEK 975.9 million (972.4). Costs for property tax and other costs rose during the third quarter. The majority of these costs have been passed on to the tenants and consequently there has not been any major impact on profit.

The turnover-based rent supplement at the NK properties is reported in the fourth quarter. The turn

1 The properties Inom Vallgraven 12:1 and 12:9 in Gothenburg are included with effect from March 30, 2010. Otherwise the property holdings remained unchanged compared with the same period the previous year.

over-based rent supplement the previous year was SEK 5.6 million. Apart from this there were no material seasonal variations in rents.

The property management results for each business area are reported on page 5.

Parking operations

Operations comprise parking operations at Parkaden AB in Stockholm. Net revenue amounted to SEK 51.2 million (47.1), expenses amounted to SEK 35.5 million (35.1) and gross profit amounted to SEK 15.7 million (12.0).

Other Income Statement items

Central administration totalled SEK -22.8 million (-19.9). Changes in the value of investment properties totalled SEK 552.0 million (-1,057.8) and changes in the value of interest derivatives totalled SEK -28.0 million (-13.5).

Financial income and expense

Net financial income and expense amounted to SEK -88.2 million (-97.6). The decrease in the net cost can be explained by lower short-term market interest rates.

Tax

The Group's tax (actual and deferred) for the period was SEK -296.7 million (121.5), of which SEK -101.9 million was actual tax (-102.8) and SEK -194.8 million was deferred tax (224.3). The positive tax for the previous year can be attributed to dissolution of deferred tax as a result of unrealized changes in value.

Profit for the period

The consolidated profit after tax amounted to SEK 818.0 million (-356.1). The change in the result is due to an unrealized increase in value of the property holdings of SEK 552.0 million for the period compared with an unrealized fall in value for the corresponding period the previous year of SEK -1,057.8 million.

ACQUISITIONS AND INVESTMENTS

In March, two properties were acquired in Gothenburg at a total purchase sum of SEK 175.0 million.

Investment during the period in properties and equipment totalled SEK 399.1 million (200.3).

PROPERTY PORTFOLIO

The fair value of the Hufvudstaden property holdings as of September 30, 2010 is estimated at SEK 19,075 million (18,125 at the year-end). The increase can be attributed to the purchase of the properties in Gothenburg, investments in the property holdings and unrealized changes in value. The rentable floor space was 357,000 square metres (354,000 at the year-end).

The total rental vacancy level as of September 30, 2010 was 6.1 per cent (5.8) and the total floor space vacancy level was 7.4 per cent (6.9). Since the year-end the rental vacancy level has fallen by 0.1 per cent (6.2 at the year-end).

Property value and net asset value

Each quarter Hufvudstaden makes an internal valuation of each individual property. The purpose of the valuation is to assess the fair value of the property holdings. The valuation took place on the basis of a valuation using a variation on the location price method, known as the net capitalization method. The method means that the market's yield requirement is put in relation to the net operating income of the properties. To assure the valuations, external valuations for part of the property holdings are obtained at least once a year.

There is a continuous update made during the year of the internal valuation of the properties in order to take into account purchases, sales and investments. Hufvudstaden also examines on a continuous basis whether there are other indications of changes in the fair value of the properties. This could, for example, take the form of major lettings, terminations and material changes in the yield requirement.

In the light of the above, a change in the value of the property holdings was considered to have taken place amounting to SEK 552.0 million. The total value of the property holdings, including investments made during the year, was SEK 19.1 billion. The unrealized increase in value can be explained by rising rents and a slightly lower direct yield requirement. The average direct yield requirement for the property holdings in conjunction with the above valuation was 5.1 per cent (5.3 at the year-end).

Net asset value

Based on the valuation of the property holdings, the net asset value was SEK 13.3 billion or SEK 65 per share after tax. When calculating the net asset value, calculated deferred tax has been used. This has been set at 10 per cent of the difference between the assessed fair value of the properties and the residual value for tax purposes for the properties. The assessment is made in the light of current tax legislation, which means that properties can be sold by a limited company without tax implications. The purchaser, however, loses the basis for depreciation, which could justify some compensation, which has been set at 10 per cent. If the tax rate according to the Balance sheet (26.3 per cent) had been used in the calculation, the net asset value would have been SEK 10.6 billion or SEK 51 per share. If the tax rate is assumed to be 0 per cent, the net asset value would be SEK 15.0 billion or SEK 73 per share.

HUFVUDSTADEN HAS MOST SATISFIED CUSTOMERS

For the third year in succession, Hufvudstaden has the most satisfied office tenants according to the Fastighetsbarometern Customer Satisfaction Survey. The survey shows that Hufvudstaden has improved by 3 units to 81 (on a scale of 1-100). It also emerged that Hufvudstaden had the highest score in 9 of the 10 quality factors measured.

RENTAL MARKET

Interest in modern, flexible office space in prime locations in central Stockholm increased slightly during the period. Vacant space in this category has continued to remain low and rents are rising. In conjunction with renegotiations and new leases for office space in Stockholm's most attractive locations in Bibliotekstan, at Norrmalms- torg/Hamngatan and in the Hötorget area, rents were noted of between SEK 3,800 and SEK 4,800 per square metre per year, excluding the property tax supplement. Interest in prime-location retail premises in the same submarkets has also been high with rents ranging from SEK 12,000 to SEK 18,000 per square metre per year, excluding the property tax supplement.

Demand for modern office premises in the central sub-markets of Gothenburg has been stable. Market rents for modern, well-planned office premises in prime locations were between SEK 1,600 and SEK 2,400 per square metre per year, excluding the property tax supplement. For retail premises the market rents were between SEK 5,000 and SEK 11,000 per square metre per year, excluding the property tax supplement.

The Group's current renegotiations for both office and retail premises have proceeded in

accordance with our expectations. A total of 51,000 square metres were renegotiated during the period at a value of SEK 195 million. On average, these renegotiations have resulted in an unchanged rent level.

FINANCING STRUCTURE

Hufvudstaden's borrowing as of September 30, 2010 amounted to SEK 3,600.0 million (3,400.0 at the year-end). The average fixed interest period was 33 months (36 at the year-end), the average capital tie-up period was 46 months (39 at the year-end) and the average annual interest rate was 3.5 per cent (3.7 at the year-end). Interest-bearing net liabilities amounted to SEK 3,320.0 million (2,990.0 at the year-end).

The fair value of interest swaps as of September 30, 2010 was SEK -163.7 million (-135.8 at the yearend).

THIRD QUARTER

Gross profit from property management amounted to SEK 235.5 million (237.9), a fall of SEK 2.4 million. The change can be attributed mainly to higher rental vacancy levels. Net rents amounted to SEK 330.2 million (322.5). Property management costs amounted to SEK 94.7 million (84.6).

Gross profit from parking operations amounted to SEK 4.7 million (3.4). Net revenue amounted to SEK 16.1 million (15.1) and costs amounted to SEK 11.4 million (11.7).
