SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE PERIOD

  • In May, Nyfosa completed a directed share issue of 17 million ordinary shares, which raised approximately SEK 1.7 billion for the company. The share issue took place on the basis of the authorization from the Annual General Meeting held on April 23, 2024.
  • In July, it was announced that CEO Stina Lindh Hök will leave Nyfosa. To ensure an orderly handover, Stina will continue as CEO until a new CEO takes office, however no later than February 1, 2025.
  • In September, the remaining 50 percent of the shares in the Norwegian property company Samfosa AS were acquired. The wholly owned subsidiary forms a new segment under the name Bratsberg.

  • In September, senior unsecured green bonds of MSEK 500 were issued, with maturity in January 2028.

  • In September, bonds of a nominal MSEK 314 were repurchased.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE PERIOD

  • The early redemption of bonds of a nominal MSEK 418 took place in October.
  • In October, an agreement was signed to divest six office properties in Luleå and Gävle at a selling price of MSEK 940. Closing is planned for November 15, 2024.

The third quarter saw a rapid improvement in the capital market, which we were able to use to strengthen Nyfosa's financial position by issuing green bonds. The net operating income was the highest ever reported during one single quarter, and the profit from property management increased during the quarter compared to 2023. With a lower net loan-to-value ratio and improved liquidity, Nyfosa stands ready to embrace new investment opportunities.

Transactions

In July, Nyfosa signed an agreement to acquire the remaining 50 percent of the shares in our Norwegian joint venture. As of the end of September, through its subsidiary Bratsberg, Nyfosa now owns a property portfolio in the Grenland region south of Oslo valued at MSEK 1,405, which has an annual rental value of MSEK 134 and an economic occupancy rate of 94.2 percent. With this transaction, we are strengthening Nyfosa's cash flow while at the same time increasing our flexibility in Norway. Bratsberg is well-established and active on the market in the region. Recently, a new project started within the portfolio to reconstruct and extend the offices in central Skien.

After the end of the period, we divested six office properties in Gävle and Luleå for MSEK 940, whereby the sales price was below book value by MSEK 4, corresponding to 0.4 percent, including deduction of deferred tax. This divestment allows us to release capital for new investments, all aimed at strengthening Nyfosa's cash flow.

Property management

The net operating income was the highest ever reported during one single quarter. In the like-for-like portfolio, net operating income increased by 7 percent in Sweden, while it remained unchanged in Finnish Kielo. We note that the leasing market remains somewhat sluggish due to the recession and is accompanied by slightly more discussions about the need to reduce space, particularly noticeable for office tenants in Finland. As usual, we are working across the regions with many ongoing discussions that we believe have the potential to result in new rentals. The occupancy rate increased marginally during the quarter from 90.9 percent to 91.0 percent.

Property valuations

Recent falls in property valuations are continuing to level off. For the Swedish property portfolio, the yield requirements in the third quarter remained unchanged compared to the previous quarter, whilst in Finland we noted a minor upward adjustment in the office segment, which in total resulted in changes in value of minus 0.4 percent, corresponding to MSEK –151. The average yield requirement was 6.84 percent for the entire portfolio.

Financing

During the third quarter, we continued our efforts to improve our financial position and reduce financing costs. By issuing MSEK 500 in new green bonds and by redeeming existing bonds maturing in 2025 after the end of the period, we will move from a margin of 400 basis points to 250. Furthermore, we have repurchased MSEK 200 in bonds maturing in 2026 and commenced the bank refinancing for 2025. Meanwhile, the central bank's first cut in the policy rate had an impact in the quarter. The average interest rate has decreased and amounted to 5.0 percent on the balance sheet date.

Despite the divestment made in October, the forecast for profit from property management in 2024 of MSEK 1,300 after interest on hybrid bonds, remains unchanged.

This is my final comment as CEO of Nyfosa. I am proud of my legacy. Nyfosa is in a strong position and has excellent conditions to continue to develop. With the company's opportunistic mindset, there should be business opportunities on the market to take advantage of in the coming year. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all my colleagues and business partners for the fantastic years we have had together. Good luck Nyfosa!

Stina Lindh Hök, CEO

With its opportunistic approach and its agile, market-centric organization, Nyfosa will create value by accumulating sustainable cash flows and continuously evaluating new business opportunities.

STRATEGY

  • Active in the transaction market
  • Prioritize commercial properties in highgrowth regions
  • With sustainability add value to the portfolio
  • Act long term and close to the tenants.
  • Attract and develop the best employees.
  • Financing primarily through banks.

The investment strategy is flexible but commercial properties in high-growth regions in Sweden and Finland prioritized. It is here that the company can leverage population growth and developments in the local business community. The property portfolio includes offices, warehouses/logistics, industry and retail properties, focusing on big-box and discount sectors.

In Sweden, the properties are mainly located in the central and southern regions of the country and along the E4 highway in Norrland, while the properties in Finland are concentrated to the southern regions of the country. In Norway, the properties are located in the Grenland region, south of Oslo.

REGIONAL PRESENCE

Nine regional offices in Sweden, two in Finland and one in Norway manage the portfolio along with several local offices. In-house personnel serve in key roles such as tenant relationships, technical management and leasing. Nyfosa has 90 employees who manage the property portfolio together with service providers.

Brunswick's management organization is responsible for the operations at Kielo.

Operations and property upkeep are purchased from local service providers in Sweden and Finland, but are performed by in-house staff in Norway.

Financial income and expenses

Financial income and expenses amounted to a net MSEK –963 (–909). The increase in expenses was due to higher interest rates. The average interest for the period amounted to 5.1 percent (4.4).

Higher interest rates were largely offset by strong net operating income, mainly impacted by indexation of leases.

Changes in value

All properties are valued by an authorized property valuer from an independent appraiser at every quarterly closing, except for the properties that were closed on in the past quarter or for which a sales agreement has been signed. These properties are recognized the agreed acquisition price and the agreed selling price.

On September 30, 2024, properties corresponding to 96.5 percent (99.8) of the property value were externally valued by the independent appraisers.

Changes in values of properties amounted to MSEK –661 (–754), corresponding to –2 percent (–2) of the property value.

Weighted average yield requirement in valuations amounted to 6.84 percent, an increase of 8 basis points since year-end and 2 basis points since the previous quarter. The increase during the quarter was mainly attributable to office properties in Kielo.

The revaluation effects attributable to financial instruments amounted to MSEK –299 (–46), and refer to interest-rate caps and swaps.

Tax

Tax for the period was MSEK –76 (–39), of which MSEK –32 (–65) was current tax. When applying the nominal tax rate of 20.6 percent is applied, the theoretical tax expense amounted to MSEK 16 (–18). The difference of MSEK –92 (21) was mainly due to non-deductible interest expenses, tax effects on property sales, previously taxed share in profit of joint ventures, and the effects of the limitation rule for deferred tax on temporary differences. The effect of the limitation rule mainly arises when recognized property values fall below the Group's cost for the property.

Profit for the period

Loss for the period amounted to MSEK –154 (49), or MSEK –0.99 per share (0.01) after dilution and less interest on hybrid bonds.

The translation difference from the operations conducted in foreign currency had an impact of MSEK 49 (114) on other comprehensive income. This item was attributable to Kielo's and Bratsberg's operations.

During the period, cash flow from operating activities amounted to MSEK 731 (1,257), of which MSEK 250 (180) comprised dividends received from participations in joint ventures. The lower cash flow compared with last year was primarily due to the change in working capital of MSEK –149 (289) as well as higher interest payments and higher paid income tax.

Earnings capacity is presented on a 12-month basis and is to be considered solely as a hypothetical instantaneous impression. It is presented only for illustrative purposes. The aim is to present annualized income and expenses based on the property portfolio, borrowing costs, capital structure and organization at a given point in time. The earnings capacity does not include an assessment of future periods in respect of rents, vacancy rates, property expenses, interest rates, changes in value or other factors impacting earnings. The earnings capacity must be considered together with other information in the interim report.

Basis for earnings capacity

  • Properties owned on the balance-sheet date are included, and agreed closing and vacancies thereafter are not taken into account.
  • The rental value is based on annual contractual rental income from current leases on October 1, 2024 and January 1, 2024.
  • The vacancy amount includes rent discounts of MSEK 22 (17) under current leases.
  • Other property income mainly refers to services in the Kielo portfolio that are managed separately from the leases and are based on actual outcome for the most recent 12 months, adjusted for the holding period.
  • Costs for operations, maintenance and property tax are based on the outcome for the most recent 12 months, adjusted for the holding period.
  • Costs for central and property administration are based on the outcome for the most recent 12 months.
  • Other operating income and expenses in profit or loss are not included in the earnings capacity.
  • Share in profit from property management of joint ventures is calculated according to the same methodology as for Nyfosa.
  • The earnings capacity does not include any financial income.
  • Financial expenses have been calculated on the basis of the average interest rate of 5.0 percent (5.2) on the balance-sheet date, plus allocated opening charges. The item also includes ground rent of MSEK 19 (18).
  • Interest on hybrid bonds has been calculated on the basis of the interest rate of 8.6 percent (8.8) on the balance-sheet date.
  • The exchange rates on the balance-sheet date of EUR/SEK 11.30 and NOK/SEK 0.96 were used to translate foreign operations. The exchange rates of EUR/SEK 11.10 and NOK/SEK 0.99 were used for the earnings capacity on January 1, 2024.
  • The number of shares on the balance-sheet date was 208,070,817 (191,022,813).

FINANCING

Amounts in parentheses refer to December 31, 2023.

Sources of financing

Nyfosa finances its assets through equity, loans with Nordic banks and loan funds, and to a lesser extent hybrid bonds and bonds issued in the Swedish capital market.

Equity

Equity attributable to the Parent Company's shareholders amounted to MSEK 18,267 (16,883) on the balance-sheet date, of which hybrid bonds were MSEK 611 (758). A new share issue of MSEK 1,734 was conducted in May, aimed at establishing a more flexible and balanced

capital structure and thereby creating readiness for new investment opportunities.

Hybrid bonds of MSEK 146 (–) were also repurchased at the nominal amount. Hybrid bonds are described in more detail in Note 6 on page 29.

Interest-bearing liabilities

Interest-bearing liabilities excluding lease liabilities and allocated arrangement fees amounted to MSEK 23,010 (23,343), of which liabilities pledged as collateral to banks and loan funds represented 93 percent (94). Senior unsecured bonds amounted to MSEK 1,536 (1,350) corresponding to 7 percent (6) of total interest-bearing liabilities.

The bonds were issued under a green finance framework prepared according to the ICMA Green Bond Principles from 2021 and the LM/LSTA/APLMA Green Loan Principles from 2023. This framework has been evaluated by an independent third party, ISS Corporate Solutions. The evaluation is published on Nyfosa's website.

Average interest amounted to 5.0 percent (5.2) on the balance-sheet date. The calculation does not take into account the cost for commitment fees, allocated arrangement fees, potential utilization of overdraft facilities and ground rents. The net loan-to-value ratio in relation to the properties' carrying amounts was 55.1 percent (58.3).

Credit facilities

To support liquidity, the company has three prearranged, hence not always fully utilized, lines of credit with banks. The scope in these revolving credit facilities can amount to a maximum of MSEK 2,348 (2,332). This means that, against collateral in existing properties, Nyfosa can rapidly increase its borrowing at predetermined terms to, for example, finance property acquisitions. After having utilized the credit scope, the company has the opportunity to renegotiate credit facilities to a standard bank loan, at which point the unutilized portion of the facilities increases. The amount granted on the balance-sheet date was MSEK 1,441 (1,260), of which MSEK 0 (790) had been utilized. Utilization of the remaining MSEK 907 (1,072) of the credit scope entails pledging acquired properties as collateral.

In addition to revolving credit facilities, the company has confirmed overdraft facilities totaling MSEK 434 (350) from three banks. Of this amount, MSEK 0 (94) had been utilized on the balance-sheet date.

Changes in interest-bearing liabilities

During the period, new liabilities pledged of MSEK 4,036 were raised, of which MSEK 2,212 related to refining existing liabilities, MSEK 1,125 to debt acquired in Bratsberg and MSEK 699 to utilization of revolving credit facilities. Ongoing amortization and repayments amounted to MSEK 4,720, of which MSEK 2,091 was attributable to refinancing existing debt and MSEK 1,498 to revolving credit facilities, which were largely repaid in connection with the new share issue in May. Liabilities pledged decreased a net MSEK 520 during the period. Next maturity of pledged liabilities of MSEK 1,873 occurs in June 2025. Preparations for refinancing have been initiated.

Bonds of MSEK 314 were repurchased in September in connection with the issue of green bonds of MSEK 500. The main terms for the green senior unsecured bonds issued is a 3.25 year maturity with a rate of STIBOR 3M +2.50 percent. On the balance-sheet date, bonds outstanding amounted to MSEK 1,536, of which early redemption of MSEK 418 took place in October 2024 in accordance with the bond conditions.

  • 1) Total interest-bearing liabilities in the statement of financial position include allocated arrangement fees, which is the reason for the deviation between the table and the statement of financial position.
  • 2) Average current interest including derivatives. Interest expense excluding cost for commitment fees, allocated arrangement fees, potential utilization of overdraft facilities and ground rents.

Fixed-rate periods and exposure to interest-rate changes

Exposure to increases in interest rates is managed by making use of derivative instruments, currently interest-rate caps and swaps. As per September 30, 2024, 65 percent (52) of the loan portfolio was hedged with derivatives, not including a forward swap of MSEK 703 that is included in the table on page 13.

Interest-rate caps provide the company with a maximum impact on total interest expenses if STIBOR 3M and EURI-BOR 6M were to rise. However, interest rates that do not reach the interest-rate cap will have full impact on earnings. The interest-rate cap amounted to a nominal MSEK 4,148 (6,150) and the strike levels were 1.5–2.0 percent (1.5–2.0), with an average of 1.6 percent (1.6).

Interest-rate swaps provide the company with fixed interest during the term of the derivative. Interest-rate swaps amounted to a nominal MSEK 11,556 (7,921), of which MSEK 10,853 (5,947) were in effect on the balance-sheet date. For these interest-rate swaps, Nyfosa paid a fixed average rate of 2.7 percent (2.6). The remaining term of signed fixed-income derivatives was 2.7 years (2.5) on the balance-sheet date.

Considering the portfolio of derivatives, on the balance-sheet date, the estimated effect on annual interest expenses if STIBOR 3M, NIBOR 3M and EURIBOR 6M were to increase or decrease by 1 percentage point is MSEK 80 and MSEK –87, respectively.

Financial risk limits

Financing and interest-rate risk are managed by applying a number of risk limits and frameworks in the company's finance policy. The risk limits are the company's own and are not covenants in the Group's financing agreements.

These risk limits also mean that the maturity structure for interest-bearing liabilities is to be evenly distributed over a five-year period, which is taken into consideration when negotiating new credit facilities. Furthermore, the process involves gradually procuring additional fixed-income derivatives to reduce the share of interest-bearing liabilities without interest-rate hedges.

Fulfillment of relevant risk limits is presented in the table below.

PROPERTY VALUATION

Nyfosa engages three independent appraisers that each value a part of the portfolio. All properties are valued every quarter, except for those for which possession was taken during the most recent quarter or a sales agreement has been signed. In these cases, the agreed acquisition price and the agreed selling price are used. The external valuations are analyzed by the company and if the company has a different opinion about the property value, the internal valuation is considered to comprise the fair value. The internal analysis resulted in a downward adjustment in relation to the external values of a total of –0.09 percent (–) as per the balance-sheet date. On September 30, 2024, properties corresponding to 96.5 percent (99.8) of the property value were externally valued by the independent appraisers. For the remaining properties, the fair value was determined as the agreed acquisition price or the agreed selling price.

Yield requirements in property valuations were raised during the period, which is the reason for most of the negative revaluation effect.

The weighted yield requirement on September 30, 2024 was 6.84 percent (6.76). The weighted cost of capital for the present value calculation of cash flows and residual values was a nominal 8.76 percent (8.68) and 8.94 percent (8.86), respectively.

Valuation techniques

The valuation was performed based on a combined location-price and yield method. The value of the properties has been assessed based on a cash-flow estimate that analyzes simulated future income and expenses and the market's expectations of the subject property. The value of the properties is affected not only by supply and demand in the market but also by a number of other factors, in part property-specific factors such as the occupancy rate, rent level and operating expenses, and in part such market-specific factors as the yield requirement and the cost of capital, which are derived from comparable transactions in the property market.

An uncertainty interval of +/- 5–10 percent is usually applied to property valuations to reflect the uncertainty of assumptions and assessments made.

The valuations were carried out in accordance with IVS and RICS valuation standards. Each subject property is valued separately, without taking into account any portfolio effects, by appraisers that act independently and who are fully qualified and have market knowledge to perform this assignment.

Nyfosa's property portfolio is recognized in the statement of financial position at fair value, Level 3 according to IFRS 13, and the changes in value are recognized in profit or loss.

For additional information on valuation techniques and the assumptions and assessments used in the valuation of Nyfosa's investment properties, refer to Note 11 of Nyfosa's 2023 Annual Report.

Risks related to changes in value

The value of the property portfolio is the largest asset item in the statement of financial position. The value of the properties is impacted by such factors as supply, demand and other property-specific and market-specific factors. Small changes in sub-components of the property valuations may have a relatively large impact on the company's earnings and financial position.

JOINT VENTURES

In addition to the wholly owned portfolio, Nyfosa owns 50 percent of Söderport Property Investment AB. The holding is classified as Participations in joint ventures and Nyfosa's share in the company's earnings are recognized in profit after financial income and expenses. Of Nyfosa's NAV, these participations accounted for SEK 16.36 per share (18.87) on the balance-sheet date.

Söderport

Söderport is a Swedish property company jointly owned with Sagax.

The property portfolio primarily comprises industrial, warehouse and office properties, which essentially presents a supplement to Nyfosa's wholly owned property portfolio. The focal point of the property portfolio is in the Stockholm and Gothenburg regions. The largest tenant is Volvo Personvagnar. Söderport has two employees and also procures property management and financial administration from Sagax. A small part of property management is procured from Nyfosa.

The carrying amount of the participations in Söderport amounted to MSEK 2,587 (2,728) on the balance-sheet date. In addition, Nyfosa issued a loan of MSEK 175 (–) to Söderport. The terms of the loan are market-based and stipulated in a promissory note between the parties.

Samfosa

In September 2024, the remaining 50 percent of the shares in Nyfosa's Norwegian joint venture, Samfosa AS, were acquired, and Samfosa thus became a wholly owned subsidiary of Nyfosa. In Nyfosa's financial reporting, the Norwegian operations will continue to comprise a separate segment under the name Bratsberg.

SUSTAINABILITY

Nyfosa works toward three sustainability targets. The purpose of these targets is to focus on the areas that are currently most material to reduce the climate footprint of the operations. The complete sustainability report is available in the 2023 Annual Report.

Sustainability certification

Properties corresponding to 33 percent of the total property portfolio had sustainability certification on the balance-sheet date. The sustainability certifications used by Nyfosa are mainly BREEAM In-Use, LEED and Miljöbyggnad. The purpose of sustainability certification is to generate competitive advantages in future leasing operations and to maintain Nyfosa's credit rating. The review process ahead of a certification results in the well-documented environmental performance of the building.

Streamlined consumption

Through the installation of new technical solutions and active control of existing technical installations, energy use decreases, which leads to lower operating expenses and reduced climate impact. Energy consumption can be followed up and reported for those properties where Nyfosa is the contract owner.

Since 2020, property management in Sweden has worked toward the target of reducing energy consumption by 10 percent from the baseline in 2020. The outcome in Sweden amounted to 109.0 kWh per sqm, which is a reduction of 7 percent compared with the baseline. Property management at Kielo has worked to achieve the goal of reduced energy consumption since 2023. The outcome in Finland amounted to 167.9 kWh per sqm, which is a reduction of 7 percent compared with the baseline of 180 kWh per sqm. For the Norwegian operations of Bratsberg, which have been included in the Nyfosa Group since September 2024, the outcome for 2024 will serve as the baseline.

19 Green appendices were added during the period when major new leases were signed or leases were renegotiated, and Nyfosa had a total of 230 green appendices (226) on

October 1, 2024, corresponding to an annual rental value of MSEK 417 (417). The aim of these green appendices is to identify and follow up on various initiatives to reduce energy consumption in premises, such as more efficient heating/ cooling, lighting and water consumption.

Carbon emissions

Nyfosa has procured renewable district heating at the locations where this is offered since 2022. The renewable district heating has environmental product declaration (EPD) or is marked Bra Miljöval in accordance with the Swedish Society for Nature Conservation's environmental requirements. This decision was made to reduce the company's carbon footprint and to provide suppliers with an incentive to continue to develop their environmentally friendly products.

On the balance-sheet date, the company had solar panel facilities with a total installed output of 3 MW.

SUSTAINABILITY TARGETS

Sustainability certification

By 2025, properties corresponding to 50 percent of the property value will have sustainability certification and 100 percent by 2030.

Share of property value with sustainability certification

Streamlined consumption

By 2025, energy consumption per sqm in Sweden will be reduced 10 percent compared with 2020 and 4 percent in Kielo compared with 2023.

Reduction in energy consumption per sqm1

Carbon emissions

Nyfosa will act to minimize the operation's carbon emissions.

Targets for carbon emissions are measured and reported on an annual basis. For follow-up, refer to the 2023 Annual Report.

NOTES NOTE 3

NOTE 1

BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This condensed interim report for the Group has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Reporting, as well as the applicable regulations of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The interim report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with Chapter 9 Interim Reports of the Annual Accounts Act. The accounting policies and calculation methods were unchanged compared with 2023 Annual Report, except as described below. Disclosures in accordance with IAS 34.16A are provided not only in the financial statements and the accompanying notes but also elsewhere in this interim report.

Put options issued by Nyfosa to the partner in the Finnish group are recognized as a financial liability with a contra entry in equity. The options entitle the holder to sell and an obligation for Nyfosa to acquire the partner's participation in the Finnish group. Initial recognition is at fair value less transaction costs. Remeasurement of issued put options of equity instruments in part-owned subsidiaries is recognized in equity when final settlement is accounted for as a transaction with minority shareholders.

In September, the remaining 50 percent of the shares in Samfosa AS were acquired. The wholly owned subsidiary forms a separate segment under the name Bratsberg. The acquisition has been identified as an asset acquisition since the primary purpose of the acquisition is to acquire the company's properties and does not include material processes. The classification as an asset acquisition means that the cost was allocated to the individual identifiable assets and liabilities based on their fair value on the acquisition date.

All amounts in the report are stated in millions of SEK ("MSEK") unless otherwise stated. There may be rounding errors in tables that have combined sums from already rounded amounts. Amounts in parentheses refer to the same period in the preceding financial year, except in the section describing the financial position where the comparative figures refer to the end of last year. Key figures regarding an earnings or cash flow measure, stated per share, are calculated on a weighted average number of shares during the period referred to. Key figures based on an amount in the statement of financial position, stated per share, are calculated on the number of shares on the balance-sheet date, unless otherwise stated. "Rolling 12 months" mean the most recent 12-month period from the balance-sheet date.

NOTE 2

ESTIMATES AND ASSESSMENTS

For assessments and estimates related to the valuation of investment properties, refer to page 20. No other changes have been made since the 2023 Annual Report.

A directed share issue of 17 million ordinary shares took place during the period. The subscription price amounted to SEK 102.00, corresponding to 96 percent of the current price of the share. Accordingly, the dilution effect was low and past key figures were not restated. The effect would have been 1.0 percent per share.

Nyfosa currently has four long-term incentive programs based on warrants for Nyfosa AB employees. A description of the warrants programs is provided in Note 7 of the 2023 Annual Report, in the 2023 remuneration report and in the report from the 2023 Annual General Meeting.

During the period, repurchase was triggered when employment was terminated, in accordance with the terms of the warrants. In connection with the second of three potential redemption periods for the LTIP 2021, 248 thousand warrants were exercised. Furthermore, the Annual General Meeting's resolution to introduce a new long-term incentive program LTIP 2024 was carried out, resulting in the subscription of 151 thousand warrants.

The existing warrants program did not result in any dilution during the period.

NOTE 4

EXPOSURE TO EXCHANGE RATE FLUCTUATIONS

Nyfosa has invested in properties in Finland and Norway. Balance-sheet items in other currencies are translated to SEK and gave rise to a translation difference of MSEK 49 (114) on the balance-sheet date, which is recognized in Other comprehensive income.

Exposure to exchange rate fluctuations is managed by financing acquisitions of assets in foreign currency raising borrowings in the same currency. Net assets in foreign currency amounted to MEUR 310 and MNOK 578 on September 30, 2024 attributable to Kielo and Bratsberg, respectively. If the SEK rate were to strengthen against the two currencies by 10 percent compared with the rate on the balance-sheet date, it would have an effect of MSEK –406 on comprehensive income.

NOTE 5

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Nyfosa measures its financial instruments at fair value or amortized cost in the statement of financial position, depending on the classification of the instrument. Financial instruments recognized in the statement of financial position include such assets as cash and cash equivalents, rent receivables and other receivables as well as derivatives. Liabilities include accounts payable, loans and notes payable, liabilities attributable to issued put options for equity instruments in jointly owned subsidiaries, other liabilities as well as derivatives. All derivatives are classified in Level 2 according to IFRS 13 and are measured at their fair value in the statement of financial position. Nyfosa has binding framework agreements for derivative trading (ISDAs), which enable Nyfosa to offset financial liabilities against financial assets in the event of the insolvency of a counterparty of other event, a process known as netting. No netting currently takes place.

The fair value of the Group's derivatives, which is reflected in the statement of financial position, is presented in the table on page 12. The carrying amount of accounts receivable, other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and other liabilities provides a reasonable assessment of the fair value.

NOTE 6

EQUITY

On September 30, 2024, Nyfosa's share capital amounted to MSEK 104, distributed among 208,070,817 shares with a quotient value of SEK 0.50 per share.

Hybrid bonds

Nyfosa has hybrid bonds outstanding of MSEK 611 (758), of which total hybrid bonds issued amount to MSEK 800 (800). Hybrid bonds of a nominal MSEK 146 (–) were repurchased during the period. The hybrid bonds are perpetual and Nyfosa has the option to cancel or defer the payment of interest and the principal of the instruments, which is why they are classified as equity instruments under IAS 32. Issue costs and tax attributable to issue costs and interest to the hybrid bond are recognized directly in equity. The bonds have a floating interest rate of STIBOR 3M +475 basis points up to and including November 18, 2025.

Non-controlling interests

Nyfosa has issued put options to the minority shareholder in Kielo, Nyfosa's Finnish group. These options give the minority owner the right to sell their participations to Nyfosa during a two-week period starting in 2026 and every two years thereafter for the carrying amount plus 10 percent of the realized or unrealized value trend in the properties less investments in the properties during the vesting period. The fair value of the put options is recognized in equity.

The minority shareholder in Kielo manages the Finnish property portfolio and provides, among other things, the CEO, the CFO, the finance function, the control function, and advice on property investments and sustainability. Nyfosa paid a fee of MEUR 2.7 (2.7) for these services for the period. The fee is governed by a management agreement that expires in 2028. The agreement grants the counterparty exclusive rights to Nyfosa's investments in commercial real estate, excluding residential real estate, in Finland.

NOTE 7

DEFERRED TAX

Deferred tax is to include temporary differences on all assets and liabilities, except for temporary differences on properties on the closing date since the acquisition is an asset acquisition. On the balance-sheet date, there was a total temporary difference of MSEK 14,599 (14,859) in the Group that is not included.

REVIEW REPORT

To the Board of Directors of Nyfosa AB Corp. id. 559131-0833

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Nyfosa AB (publ) as of September 30, 2024 and the nine-month period then ended. The Board of Directors and the Managing Director 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 International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and other generally accepted auditing practices and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, 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.
