CEO Leiv Synnes

SBB owns residentials in Sweden and premises for publicly funded social infrastructure in the Nordic region.

The capital market continued to develop in a positive direction in the first quarter – the market assessment being that the European central banks will lower their interest rates. Nordea, for example, believes that the Swedish policy rate will have been lowered from the current 4 percent to 2.5 percent by the end of 2024.

In retrospect, credit margins on BBB-rated three-year bonds from Swedish property companies, rose from about 1 percent in 2021, to between 3 and 4 percent in 2022 and 2023. From the second half of 2023, margins have instead fallen gradually to 2 percent at the end of the first quarter of 2024. My assessment is that credit margins will likely continue decreasing and that SBB's part-owned companies can benefit from this more advantageous financing.

The stronger financing market has also contributed to property transaction volumes rising – by 60 percent in the first quarter, compared with the corresponding quarter last year. Demand for properties is trending upwards, suggesting a favourable value trend for SBB in the long term, particularly as income from our properties is also increasing.

Net operating income in comparable portfolios increased by 3.0 percent

SBB's net operating income for comparable portfolios continues to rise – by 3.0 percent for the quarter. At the same time, income from comparable portfolios rose by 3.9 percent and the occupancy rate of 94 percent remained favourable. Development over the quarter confirms SBB's capacity to increase net operating income over time, while also maintaining a high occupancy rate in comparable portfolios. Rising net operating income will drive growth in SBB's asset values and improve the situation for all of the company's stakeholders.

Continued growth anticipated in net operating income

Demand remains strong in all of SBB's segments: Residential, Community and Education.

We expect income from the existing residentials to clearly outpace inflation over the next few years. In addition, several project properties will be completed and let to tenants, leading to a better relationship between income and expenses.

Our income from community service properties and educational properties is rising stably thanks to our long-term index-adjusted leases. Over time, we perceive favourable opportunities to deliver growth exceeding inflation. Partly by making supplementary investments, and partly by adjusting rent levels in connection with lease extensions and annual rent negotiations.

Average interest rate of 2.22 percent

SBB continues to benefit from the company's long-term financing and low average interest rates. At the end of the quarter, the average interest rate was 2.22 percent and the average maturity was 3.6 years. Debt maturing after 2026 carries an average interest rate of 2.26 percent. We are working actively to reduce our interest-bearing liabilities and to improve the company's financial position. By choosing to amortize rather than refinance loans as they mature, we postpone the impacts of the higher interest rate situation on SBB's interest expenses.

SBB's property exposure is SEK 104bn

Consolidated property portfolios are decreasing as properties are transferred to joint ventures that are not consolidated. The collaboration with Nordiqus has had the greatest impact, with a property portfolio of SEK 40bn that is no longer consolidated as SBB's holding is slightly less than 50 percent. The benefit for SBB has been an injection of equity, a knowledgeable and well-capitalized partner and the opportunity to achieve significantly improved financing within the joint venture.

If we combine consolidated property holdings with the proportion of significant holdings which are not consolidated, SBB's property exposure totals SEK 104bn, with net operating income of SEK 4.7bn.

Sveafastigheter plans distribution to shareholders

The process of distributing Sveafastigheter to shareholders is continuing and an independent Board of Directors for the company was appointed during the quarter. The distribution to shareholders will generate proceeds for SBB and establish optimum conditions for the financing and efficient operation of residentials. This includes winding up our part-owned companies in the Residential segment and bringing our wholly-owned residential portfolio together within Sveafastigheter.

Following the end of the quarter, SBB agreed with Riksbyggen to split the jointly owned Unobo AB and for SBB's part of the portfolio to be transferred to Sveafastigheter.

Following the end of the quarter, SBB agreed with Riksbyggen to split the jointly owned Unobo AB and for SBB's part of the portfolio to be transferred to Sveafastigheter.

As a listed company, Sveafastigheter would be the largest housing-focused company on the Stockholm Stock Exchange. The company has the capacity to deliver both stably increasing rental income in existing portfolios and to generate profit through project development. First, building rights are established or land allocations obtained, after which profitable in-house project development occurs, with the completed properties ultimately being transferred to the property management operations.

Sveafastigheter takes a long-term approach, adapting project volumes to the prevailing conditions.

The prerequisites for profitable projects will likely increase as the need for new housing continues growing indefatigably in Sveafastigheter's core markets.

Nordiqus developing well

The distribution to shareholders that we previously conducted in the Education segment, with Brookfield acquiring slightly more than 50 percent of the shares in Nordiqus, has been successful. The operations are developing well, with net operating income rising in comparable portfolios over the quarter. Nordiqus is financially strong and the objective is to achieve an investment grade-rating over the year.

Nordiqus is a European leader in educational properties. It feels gratifying, as with Sveafastigheter, to be involved in building beneficial and independent companies.

IPO of Public Property Invest

In April, SBB's associated company Public Property Invest was successfully listed on the Oslo stock exchange. The company is part of SBB's Community segment and specializes in properties with public-sector tenants in Norway. In connection with the IPO, SBB's Norwegian property management organization transferred properties for SEK 1.7bn to Public Property Invest. Following the issue in kind of properties and the distribution to shareholders, SBB's holding amounts to 33.7 percent.

With assets of SEK 10bn and a loan-to-value ratio of 40 percent, a large and stable company is established that is able to play an active role in the consolidation of the property market. I believe that the company will eventually receive an investment grade rating – SBB's ambition for all holdings.

Joint ventures strengthen financial position

In the Residential segment, SBB established a joint venture with Morgan Stanley in 2023. In the first quarter, another joint venture was established together with Castlelake for community service properties. The fully implemented transaction will raise proceeds of SEK 5.2bn for SBB.

The proceeds from these joint ventures are being used to reduce bank loans and bond financing. For example, in March senior and hybrid bonds for EUR 163m were repurchased, with the nominal value being EUR 408m.

Complex accounting to continue a while

The combination of SBB establishing new partnerships for financial reasons and the company implementing, at the same time, of a large number of measures, will entail the complexity of the financial reporting increasing for a while. However, we remain determined to reduce the number of complex structures and to establish comprehensible accounting and a less expensive administration. Once SBB has completed the restructuring process and improved the company's financial position, the administrative costs will normalize.

Measures needed to strengthen liquidity and the balance sheet

SBB has implemented measures to mitigate the financial risk. SBB's current CCC+ credit rating from Fitch and CCC rating from Standard and Poor's demonstrates clearly that this process must continue. In particular, SBB needs to

We have great confidence in our strategic plan"

continue improving its liquidity and lowering its loan-to-value ratio, which, at the end of the quarter was 55 percent. We believe that the increasingly strong credit and property markets will favour SBB in this regard, while our bond maturities are managed using the proceeds raised by establishing favourable and independent companies, such as Sveafastigheter.

Baseless claim from opportunistic hedge fund

As was previously announced, a lone opportunistic fund claims via its company in the Cayman Islands that value changes not affecting cash flow in joint ventures shall be included when calculating the cash flow measure, interest coverage ratio. No other SBB bondholders or banks, expect value changes to be included in such a cash flow measure.

In a press release on 31 May 2023, SBB refuted claims that it had violated the terms on interest coverage ratio in the EMTN programmes and, accordingly, consider the demands received from the opportunistic fund to be unfounded. A legal process is progress and is currently estimated to continue until 2026.

Confidence in our strategic plan

As we continue working step by step with the challenges associated with SBB's financing, the fundamental prospects for SBB's property portfolio continue to improve. Over time, rent-regulated residentials benefit from population growth and public sector leasing is insensitive to economic conditions. Construction remains very limited and we can expect rising rent levels and high occupancy rates over the next few years. At the same time, the cost of capital is falling for the market as a whole, affecting the valuation of properties positively. We have great confidence in our strategic plan and I would like to thank all of our employees for their significant efforts, as well as our tenants and partners for their continued confidence.

Profit before value changes and goodwill

Central administration costs for the period totalled SEK -209m (-140). Acquisition and restructuring costs amounted to SEK -14m (-10) and were predominantly attributable to the decentralization of the Group's structure.

Value changes

Changes in the value of properties over the period amounted to SEK -1,984m (-2,223), of which SEK -52m (47) were realized changes in value and SEK -1,932m (-2,379) were unrealized changes in value. Value changes include general rent development, re-negotiations of existing agreements and newly signed leases generating higher net operating income which contributed positively to unrealized value changes. The negative the change in value is explained by higher yield requirements. Over the period the property portfolio had a negative change in value of about 2.8 percent. Over the period, the average yield requirement rose from 5.19 percent to 5.27 percent.

During the period, SBB sold properties for SEK 4,681m, primary through the establishment of a new joint venture with Castlelake.

Profit from joint ventures and associated companies was SEK -192m (-369). See further information on pages 25-26.

Net financial items

Net financial items for the period amounted to SEK 374m (-923). The change depends predominantly on capital gains/losses attributable to the repurchasing of bonds. The financial costs include interest for external financing, as well as other financial costs, such as accrued arrangement fees.

The financial costs include the results of the early redemption of loans by SEK 797m (-116) for the period. Translation differences of SEK -156m (-483) were reported for the period. The translation losses are mainly attributable to the recalculation of loans in EUR to extent these are not matched by hedges in the form of net assets in EUR and currency derivatives.

Value changes for financial instruments amounted to SEK -13m (-1,199) for the period. The item comprises unrealized changes in value for financial investments in shares of SEK -3m (-917) and is attributable to the negative price trend for the shares in the portfolio, as well as value changes regarding derivatives of SEK -10m (-282).

Goodwill

At the end of the period, goodwill amounted to SEK 2,692m (2,692). At the end of the period, SEK 597m (597) of reported goodwill was attributable to the difference between nominal tax and the deferred tax calculated on the acquisition of properties in company format that must be reported as "business combinations." Remaining goodwill consists primarily of synergy effects in the form of reduced financing and administration costs.

Investment properties

As of 31 March 2024, the value of the properties amounted to SEK 67,343m (73,705). The value of the property portfolio has been based on external valuations made by Newsec, JLL, Savills, Cushman & Wakefield Realkapital and Colliers. The valuations have been based on an analysis of future cash flows for each property, taking into account the current lease terms, market situation, rental levels, operating, maintenance and management administration costs and investment needs. An average yield requirement of 5.27 percent (5.19) has been used in the valuation. The value of the properties includes SEK 1,762m for building rights that have been valued through the application of the local price method, which means that the assessment of the value is based on comparisons of prices for similar building rights. Fair value has thus been assessed in accordance with IFRS 13 level 3. See further on investment properties on pages 21-24.

Sensitivity analysis

The property valuations are made according to accepted principles based on certain assumptions. The table below presents how the value has been impacted by a change in certain parameters assumed for the valuation. The table provides a simplified illustration as a single parameter is unlikely to change in isolation.

As of 31 March 2024, the deferred tax liability amounted net to SEK 2,559m (2,726) and is largely attributable to investment properties and tax-loss carryforwards. The closing consolidated deficit totalled SEK 4,825m as of 31 March 2024. Tax-loss carryforwards totalling SEK 749m were exercised during the period.

Interest-bearing liabilities

At the end of the period, interest-bearing liabilities in the Group amounted to SEK 59,227m (62,093), of which SEK 19,434m (18,977) pertained to liabilities to credit institutions, SEK 39,792m (43,116) pertained to bond loans and SEK 0m (0) pertained to commercial papers.

Comments

As of 31 March 2024, equity amounted to SEK 34,379m (37,131). Equity includes hybrid bonds issued for a book value of SEK 14,652m. The nominal value of the hybrid bonds is SEK 13,311m. Over the quarter, hybrid bonds of SEK 2,430m (0) were repurchased

Translation differences in the translation of net assets in subsidiaries in Norway, Finland and Denmark from local currency to SEK amounted to SEK -644m of the change in equity during the period.

Non-controlling interest

Non-controlling interests amounted to SEK 2,355m (2,445). The reduction is mainly attributable to Unobo. Also included are minority shareholdings in a few companies within the Sveafastigheter-group, with SBB not holding all of the shares in those companies.

The equity ratio was 34 percent (34), the adjusted equity ratio was 36 percent (37), and the loan-to-value ratio was 55 percent (54).

2) Other reserves comprise translation gains/losses regarding hybrid bonds.

3) In accordance with a press release issued on 29 December 2023, dividends on the hybrid bond were paused, corresponding to accrued dividends (interest) of SEK 456,879,284 as of 31 March 2024.

4) The company has changed accounting principle for the management of issue costs. These were previously managed under capital attributable to hybrid bonds but are now included in retained earnings. This has resulted in the opening balances for equity being adjusted.

Information on the project portfolio is based on assessments of the size, focus and scope of the projects. The information also builds on assessments of future project costs and rental value. Such assessments and assumptions should not be seen as a forecast. Assessments and assumptions involve uncertainties regarding the implementation, design and size, schedules, project costs and future rental value of the projects. Data on the project portfolio are reviewed regularly and assessments and assumptions are adjusted as a result of projects, currently in project development, being completed, of new projects being added, or of conditions changing.

Strategic holdings in joint ventures and associated companies

As part of the company's active portfolio management, SBB has invested in joint ventures and associated companies to acquire attractive properties and assets that are not otherwise available on the regular transaction market, as well as to establish additional contact points in the property market and to benefit from strong organizational platforms outside SBB to maintain continued growth in cash flow.

Some of the companies conduct property development projects, while other companies own investment properties. The largest holdings comprise the companies SBB Residential Property AB, SBB Kåpan Bostad AB, SBB Infrastructure AB, Public Property Invest AS and Nordiqus AB.

SBB Residential Property AB

SBB Residential Property AB owns a housing portfolio comprising rent-regulated residentials. The company was formed in July 2023 and has issued preference shares in connection with the company entering into an agreement on raising capital with an investment fund managed by Morgan Stanley. As the shareholder agreement between the holders of ordinary shares and preference shares requires decisions to be made jointly, SBB exercises a significant, but not decisive, influence whereby the holdings are reported as associated companies following the issue.

SBB Kåpan Bostad AB

SBB Kåpan Bostad AB owns and manages residentials in Stockholm and the Mälardalen region. The company is jointly owned with Kåpan Pensioner.

SBB Infrastructure AB

The company is a joint venture in collaboration with Castlelake, with the support of Atlas SP Partners. The company owns and manages public properties.

Public Property Invest AS

Public Property Invest AS owns and manages public properties in Norway primarily within the police and judiciary, and public offices segments. The remainder of the company is owned by institutional and private investors.

Nordiqus AB

Nordiqus AB was formed in 2022 and, as of 2023, owns and manages a portfolio comprising more than 600 educational properties across the Nordics. The portfolio consists of preschools, schools, elementary schools, high schools and universities.

As the shareholder agreement between the holders of ordinary shares and preference shares requires decisions to be made jointly, SBB exercises a significant, but not decisive, influence whereby the holdings are reported as associated companies.

2) Public Property Invest AS has not published their Quarterly report as of 31 March 2024, hence SBB uses Public Property Invest AS reported numbers from 2023-12-31

Financing

SBB owns and manages a property portfolio with the capacity to generate increasing net operating income – for the period, the increase was 3.0 percent in comparable portfolios. Most of SBB's financing is non-current and on favourable terms, carrying an average interest rate of 2.22 percent at the end of the period. SBB reduced its debt by SEK 24,333m over the past twelve months and by SEK 2,866m over the period.

Finance function

The finance function shall support the company's core business by minimizing the cost of capital in the long term. Its task is to manage existing debt, raise new loans for investments and acquisitions, streamline cash management and, by means of good control and analysis, limit the financial risks. The work is governed by the company's finance policy, which is adopted by the Board once a year. The finance policy regulates reporting, monitoring and control. All financial issues of strategic importance are dealt with by the Board. Sustainability is a natural part of our business model and SBB works to ensure that 100 percent of our borrowing in the capital market and the loan market will be sustainable by 2030. This is done by entering green loans, as well as by issuing social and green bonds.

Interest-bearing liabilities decreased by SEK 2,866m

SBB reduced its debt by SEK 2,866m over the period. The loan-to-value ratio has nonetheless increased to 55 percent due to falling property values and negative currency effects. A higher interest rate affects the market values of both assets and liabilities. The market values of SBB's properties are assessed externally each quarter and are reported at fair value in the balance sheet.

Need to raise credit scores

Over 2023, the credit ratings from both S&P and Fitch were lowered from BBB to CCC+ with a negative outlook. Over the period, the credit rating was further lowered by S&P to CCC with a negative outlook. The credit rating from Fitch remains unchanged at CCC+ with a negative outlook. SBB is endeavouring to eventually regain a credit rating of at least BBB-, corresponding to "Investment Grade." Among other things, this requires lower indebtedness and improved liquidity.

Liquidity

Available liquidity at the end of the period was SEK 3,003m, liquidity investments amounted to SEK 200m, and signed but undisbursed loans amounted to SEK 1,460m. Overall, it is concluded that SBB needs to improve its liquidity and overall financial position. SBB has many options that can lead to an improved situation.

Despite a difficult market over the past two years, SBB has implemented a large number of transactions to ensure sufficient liquidity. Larger property portfolios have been difficult to sell, but SBB has had opportunities to divest individual properties.

SBB assesses that the property market will be stronger for SBB in 2024 and that the number of transactions will increase. This is partly due to an increasingly strong credit market, where terms are becoming more favorable and volumes are increasing. In one year's time, it is likely that SBB will have been able to carry out a number of smaller sales and one major transaction that, in aggregate, will represent a significant volume on reasonable terms. SBB intends to present additional sales on an ongoing basis as these processes are completed.

SBB is working with strategic measures to strengthen liquidity, for example through issues of shares in SBB's subsidiaries. A different company structure also facilitates increased bank financing, a favourable alternative when the bond market is weaker. One such project is the creation of a strong residential company, Sveafastigheter. SBB has for some time been working towards a broadening of the shareholder base for Sveafastigheter in 2024. A successful transaction is expected to cover SBB's capital needs in 2024 and 2025.

SBB is currently very restrictive to new acquisitions. The upcoming acquisitions are related to previously signed agreements. This, together with a cautious approach to new investments, means that cash flow from property operations can be used for other purposes.

SBB's liquidity was negatively affected in 2023 by the discontinuation of short-term financing in the form of commercial papers with associated credit facilities, for example.

As of 31 March 2024, SBB has no commercial papers outstanding. General uncertainty in the market and specific uncertainty for SBB has made it difficult to extend bank loans far in advance. It is considered possible to extend bank loans reaching maturity, as also occurred over the year.

If a bank loan is not extended, the deposit is released in full and can then be used in securing a loan from new financiers.

Despite a difficult market in 2022 and 2023, SBB has demonstrated that the company can attract equity, as well as borrowed capital. SBB commenced partnerships with Brookfield and Morgan Stanley in 2023, as well as with Castlelake in 2024. SBB is also conducting several discussions on new or expanded partnerships with the aim of further strengthening its financial position.

Interest and capital maturities

The advantage with long-term financing is that interest expenses change slowly as interest rates rise. SBB's average interest rate of 2.22 percent is significantly below prevailing market interest rates. The interest rate on SBB's long-term bond financing is particularly favourable.

During the last eighteen months, debt decreased by SEK 36,149m. SBB is working actively to reduce its absolute level of debt. By repaying loans on maturity, the effects of higher interest rates are reduced.

SBB's sustainability work

Samhällsbyggnadsbolaget i Norden AB (SBB) creates sustainable environments in which people want to live, work and spend time well into the future. Being the largest Nordic player in social infrastructure, SBB's local efforts contribute to general societal development that is socially, environmentally and economically sustainable. SBB's locally based property management provides close and direct customer contacts, while SBB's size provides opportunities for making the necessary investments in the properties.

Sustainability is an integrated part of SBB's business model and SBB strives to be the world's most sustainable property company. SBB has set out a long-term strategy and vision for 2030 detailing its long-term targets and a Sustainability Policy for the concrete implementation of the targets and vision. The persistent work in the area of sustainability has produced results in the form of an improved ESG risk rating. Analysis company Sustainalytics assesses SBB's ESG-risk as very low at 12.0 (on a scale from 0 to 50, the limit for negligible risk is 10) and risk management is considered strong. SBB thus tops the list of comparable companies based on market capitalization.

The climate issue is one of humanity's greatest challenges and SBB has a responsibility for future generations to contribute solutions and reduce its own climate impact. SBB conducts intensive and targeted efforts to improve energy performance throughout the property portfolio, focusing particularly on the buildings with the worst performance. During the quarter, an action plan was prepared in which concrete measures were identified for each individual property within energy class F or G. The measures are implemented continuously, with the focus for the upcoming quarters being to further increase the pace of implementation.

Social sustainability is an important part of our promise to build a better society. As of 31 March, SBB held social assets of a total 2,031 thousand m2 . The various asset classes have

Our overarching objectives

E – Climate and environment

  • Reduced energy consumption and climate impact by 5 percent annually in comparable portfolios
  • Reduced Scope 3 climate emissions by 30 percent by 2025 and by 60 percent by 2030, compared with the base year of 2020.
  • Reduced water consumption in comparable portfolios by 1 percent annually
  • Climate-adapted property portfolio

S – Social sustainability

  • Zero serious injuries and zero fatalities, refers to all internal and external personnel working at SBB's workplaces and projects.
  • Good working conditions for all internal and external personnel working at SBB's workplaces and projects, in line with relevant collective agreements
  • Robust processes to foster good working conditions throughout the supply chain

G – Governance and financing

  • 100-percent sustainable financing
  • SBB is to be classified as a green share on Nasdaq Stockholm

been judged by the independent Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) to make a significant contribution to the UN Global Goals for Sustainable Development (SDGs) numbers 3, 4 and 10. In addition, SBB also holds community properties of some 592 thousand m2 , that have yet to be classified in accordance with the sustainable financial framework.

Our objective is to achieve good economic growth without incurring negative consequences for the climate and the social environment. SBB continues to invest in sustainable financing by entering into green loans, issuing social and green bonds and reducing energy consumption. As of 31 March, social bonds, green bonds and green loans made up 34 percent of the total debt portfolio, in nominal amounts (excluding social hybrid bonds).

Risks and uncertainties

A property company is exposed to various risks and opportunities in its operations. To limit the exposure to various risks, SBB has set out and adheres to internal regulations and policies. These are detailed on pages 68-69 in SBB's 2023 Annual Report.

The bondholder who made claims against SBB under the EMTN programmes for 2020 and 2021 has now initiated formal legal action. The bondholder's holdings correspond to a nominal amount of about EUR 46m distributed across both EMTN programmes. In his claim, the bondholder maintains that the bond holding has fallen due for payment as SBB, in the bondholder's opinion, has violated the terms regarding interest coverage ratio in the EMTN programmes.

SBB has for some time now engaged experienced legal and financial advisers. SBB continues to make the assessment that the company has not violated the terms regarding the interest coverage ratio in the EMTN programmes, whereby SBB takes the view that the company is likely to prevail in the legal case now initiated by the bondholder. However, a legal case always includes an element of uncertainty as a court may make a different assessment of a case in point. SBB makes the overall assessment that this will not have a significant impact on the preparation of this year-end report.

The Board of Directors and the CEO provide their assurance that the interim report provides a fair overview operations, position and results of the Parent Company and the Group and describes significant risks and uncertainties that affect the Parent Company and the companies included in the Group.
