  • Surplus ratio of 75 per cent.
  • Investment volume of approximately SEK 2,500m per year.

NET LETTINGS

Target: SEK 80m per year

SURPLUS RATIO

Target: 75%

Rental income in the third quarter amounted to SEK 847m (854), almost the same level as in 2023 despite divestments. Unrealised changes in value were positive during the quarter.

During the quarter, we had the pleasure of officially welcoming the Royal Swedish Opera and Royal Dramatic Theatre to Flemingsberg, Restaurant Billman opened its doors in Regulatorn, the moving into Ackordet in Haga Norra started and the garage was completed, Kung Carl expanded its restaurant and bar area, Wirström's Pub opened on Kungsgatan, and Bruce Springsteen played to full houses at Strawberry Arena. There were a lot of positive developments and happenings. At the same time, there are also various challenges.

This past quarter can be summarised as being a period of continuing significant unrest around the world, declining inflation, falling interest rates, a stronger krona, significant political uncertainty particularly in the US, and a still highly challenging economic environment, mainly in Europe and Asia.

Many of the above-mentioned factors are positive for the property market, such as falling interest rates, but unrest in other parts of the world and a weaker economy are fuelling uncertainty in the rental market. We feel that this unease has dominated 2024 thus far, and we're not out of the woods yet. Above all, uncertainty and volatility give rise to caution and extended lead times when it comes to decision making.

We are noting a weak trend in office employment. The number of people working in an office environment is perhaps the most important driver of demand for office space. Office employment declined by about half a per cent in 2023. It will likely remain slightly negative for the rest of 2024 and early 2025 before we see a turnaround.

Net lettings were also negative in the third quarter, at SEK –11m. This includes the effects of us unfortunately having to vacate the Wenner-Gren center for, among other things, replacement of the façade. In total, this had a negative impact on net lettings for the quarter of approximately SEK 7m and for the first three quarters of approximately SEK 18m. As I have said before, numerous exciting and

constructive discussions are underway with potential tenants, but unfortunately not enough of them have yet resulted in a lease. Meanwhile, some tenants have opted to downsize. The decision to downsize can be prompted by various reasons, such as a weaker economy, changed working methods and that they previously rented too much space. A few years ago, when borrowing costs were very low and businesses had a more positive outlook, they sometimes took on additional space to 'grow into'. This space may no longer be needed.

The Swedish word for office – kontor – has been in the Swedish language since the 1500s. It has taken on many different meanings over time, although it has always related to a company or authority's 'brain' where contracts, bookkeeping, filing, etc. are managed. The word comes from the French word comptoir, which actually means counting table.

The role of the office has seen a rapid shift since the early 2000s. We now have laptops, smartphones, internet, email, and so on. Desks have become much smaller, they are used more efficiently, and filing is done digitally, i.e. there are fewer cabinets. During the pandemic, we took a giant leap forwards in the use of digital communication, which has resulted in a need for more meeting rooms and also a change in travel patterns. The list of changes that have happened is long.

In a new report, the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce has highlighted the significance of offices for the development of companies in Stockholm. Despite greater flexibility, the office remains an important hub for creative collaboration.

In addition, commuting to the office has become increasingly important. According to the Chamber of Commerce, almost 75 per cent of employees feel that reliable public transport and efficient transport links are more important now than ever before. This means that the location of the office and proximity to rail-based public transport are gaining significance. The fact that public transport has unfortunately been unreliable in recent years is a problem that needs to be addressed.

With our high-quality properties in prime locations, we are well positioned to offer good products for companies and authorities in Stockholm. I am convinced that this will be reflected in rentals going forward. However,

INVESTMENT VOLUME

Target: SEK 2.5bn per year over a business cycle

FINANCIAL TARGETS

Fabege's Board of Directors has adopted the following financial targets:

  • Loan-to-value ratio of max. 50 per cent.
  • Interest coverage ratio of at least 2.2x.
  • Debt ratio of max. 13.0x.
  • Equity/assets ratio of 35 per cent min.

Outcome 30/09/2024

  • Loan-to-value ratio of 43 per cent
  • Interest coverage ratio of 2.5x
  • Debt ratio of 13.9x
  • Equity/assets ratio of 46 per cent

I am reluctant to promise total positive net lettings this year.

We chose to have an independent valuation of a significant portion (52 per cent) of our portfolio carried out in the third quarter as well. The average required rate of return remained at 4.54 per cent and unrealised changes in the value of properties amounted to SEK 224m. In my opinion, the values have stabilised at the current levels. We had several deals both in the city centre and in less central areas at yield requirements that confirmed our valuations.

We have previously stated that our main goals for 2024 are:

  • To increase the occupancy rate of the investment portfolio. The aim is to increase the occupancy rate to 95 per cent
  • Ensure cost control
  • Work to enable future projects
  • Refinancing our bond maturities and securing access to capital
  • Remaining at the forefront in terms of sustainability
  • Contributing to the creation of a sense of safety and wellbeing in the places in which we have operations

In the current tougher market, our occupancy rate has gone in the wrong direction in 2024. We are working hard to reverse this trend. A boost will be provided in this regard during the next eighteen months, as companies such as Alfa Laval and SAAB move in and the ongoing projects are completed. This will, of course, also increase our income.

We should always aim to have optimal costs. We usually say it is important to distinguish between good costs and bad costs. Good costs either give rise to, or strengthen, income. I think we are effective in that regard in terms of managing day-to-day costs, but we can and must also focus on costs in our projects, particularly in our tenant customisations. This is an ongoing process.

As expected, the Riksbank lowered its policy rate during the quarter and is now indicating further cuts in the fourth quarter. It is possible there will be an even larger cut than previously expected.

We were active in the bond market during the quarter, and issued SEK 3.1bn with good conditions. The fact that the capital market has come back so strongly is positive not only for us but for the whole industry.

Our average interest rate has dropped slightly, to 3.16 per cent. We expect it to continue to fall towards the end of the year. During the period, we also took the opportunity to enter into new long-term swap contracts to reduce interest rate risk.

Our latest residential project in Haga Norra, consisting of 288 apartments (including 78 rental apartments), is proceeding as planned. We launched sales in BRF Alma in September, and have now sold 9 of 23 apartments. These tenant-owner apartments will be ready for occupancy in March 2025. The rental apartments will be ready for occupancy from the second half of 2025.

In the field of sustainability, we received confirmation that we are at the forefront with our efforts. We achieved 95 points in the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB), which is our best ever result. This means we are ranked number 1 in offices, listed companies in Northern Europe, and number 2 in the categories of offices Europe and listed companies in Europe. We are noting heightened customer interest in sustainability issues, which is positive. We are also well positioned to comply with upcoming EU sustainability legislation. Our work with reuse has aroused considerable interest and is important for future projects.

I am proud of the work we do to contribute to the local communities in which we are a major property owner and developer. Our focus on also ensuring fulfilling leisure activities, such as sport and culture, schools and job-creating activities, has numerous positive effects.

There's a lot to be positive about in our business. I am proud of the organisation and what we create in Stockholm. We have good properties in prime locations, from Stureplan to Flemingsberg; we have fantastic tenants; we have a strong, professional organisation with a positive culture and strong drive; we have several projects due to be completed over the next year; we have many exciting future projects and opportunities and, last but not least, we have a strong financial position. General uncertainty and the economy are the two issues that are currently causing concern. Offices are perhaps more important than ever, but there is a great deal of uncertainty about what they should look like. Our knowledge of offices and urban development is needed more than it has been for many years.

It is also gratifying to see how proud our tenants and we are of the offices located in our properties. This can be seen, for example, in the total of 7 nominations for the Office of the Year award

Being an optimist is more fun than being a pessimist. And they say that optimists live longer. However, while being optimistic it is necessary to also try to be a realist. The end of 2024 will probably continue to be characterised by uncertainty and volatility. At the same time, we have plenty of opportunities.

Earnings Jan–Sep 20241

Earnings after tax for the period amounted to SEK –668m (–3,527), corresponding to earnings per share of SEK –2.12 (–11.21). Earnings before tax for the period amounted to SEK –698m (–4,419). Net operating income increased slightly, while interest costs were consistent with the previous year. Unrealised changes in the value of the property portfolio turned around and were positive in the third quarter. Profit before and after tax thus increased compared with the previous year.

  • New lettings totalled SEK 33m (24).
  • Net lettings totalled SEK –11m (–25).
  • Rental income totalled SEK 847m (854).
  • The surplus ratio was 77 per cent (76).
  • Revenue from residential development amounted to SEK 88m (177) and gross earnings totalled SEK –12m (–5).
  • Net interest items amounted to SEK –242m (–265).

RENTAL INCOME AND NET OPERATING INCOME

Rental income increased to SEK 2,577m (2,539) and net operating income amounted to SEK 1,924m (1,900). Occupancy in completed projects was offset by reduced income relating to divested properties, net SEK –93m. In a like-for-like portfolio, income increased by SEK 120m, corresponding to approximately 5 per cent (12), which was mainly attributable to the index increase that came into effect at year-end. Income included non-recurring items of SEK 12m. Property costs amounted to SEK –653m (– 650) in line with the previous year. Net operating income on a like-for-like basis rose by approximately 4 per cent (13). The surplus ratio was 75 per cent (75).

PROFIT FROM RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT

Revenue from residential development totalled SEK 230m (486). Residential development costs amounted to SEK –247m (–463), of which administrative costs were SEK –20m (–17). Gross earnings therefore totalled SEK –17m (23). Income is recognised in connection with phased occupancy or upon completion. Two projects were completed and finalised during the period. In addition, the value of development properties has been written down by SEK –34m, which is mainly attributable to two individual project opportunities.

CENTRAL ADMINISTRATION

Central administration costs amounted to SEK –80m (–81).

NET FINANCIAL ITEMS

Net interest items amounted to SEK –727m (–725). The average interest rate at 30 September 2024 was 3.16 per cent (3.13 at year-end). Ground rent amounted to SEK –31m (–35).

SHARE IN PROFIT/LOSS OF ASSOCIATED COMPANIES

The share in the profit/loss of associated companies totalled SEK –57m (31), of which SEK –71m (–54) related to contributions to Arenabolaget, and SEK 11m related to results from the JV project in Haga Norra. Other associated companies contributed SEK 3m, of which SEK 1m pertained to Urban Services.

CHANGES IN THE VALUE OF PROPERTIES

The property portfolio is valued using a wellestablished process. The entire property portfolio is independently valued at least once a year. Due to the market situation, a larger proportion has been independently valued each quarter for the last two years. Just over 45 per cent of the portfolio was valued independently in the third quarter of 2024, while the remaining properties were valued internally based on the most recent independent valuations. The total market value at the end of the period was SEK 78.2bn (78.1). Unrealised changes in value totalled SEK –1,236m (–5,415). As in the previous quarter, the average yield requirement was 4.54 per cent; an increase of 0.11 percentage points since the beginning of the year. Realised value changes of SEK 4m related to additional earnings from the transaction with Nrep in 2023.

TAX

The tax expense for the period amounted to SEK 30m (892) and related to deferred tax. Tax was calculated at a rate of 20.6 per cent on taxable earnings. The interest deduction limitations are not expected to have a material effect on taxes paid over the next few years.

SEGMENT REPORTING

The Property Management segment generated net operating income of SEK 1,829m (1,798), representing a surplus ratio of 77 per cent (77). The occupancy rate was 89

Impairment losses on development properties amounted to SEK –34 million (-). Unrealised changes in value totalled SEK –15m (–20). Further information about the breakdown by segment is provided in the segment report on page 11.

GOODWILL

Recognised goodwill of SEK 205m is entirely attributable to the acquisition of Birger Bostad AB.

PROPERTIES

Recognised property value relates to Fabege's investment property portfolio, including project and land properties. At 30 September 2024, the total property value amounted to SEK 78.2bn (78.1).

DEVELOPMENT PROPERTIES

The carrying amount refers to ongoing projects managed by the company itself and development properties for future construction within Birger Bostad. During the second quarter, part of Kvinten 1, Haga Norra, where the project to build a new residential area is currently ongoing, was acquired internally. The value at the end of the quarter totalled SEK 722m (519), SEK 460m (201) of which relates to ongoing construction and SEK 262m (318) to development properties for future development.

FINANCIAL POSITION AND NET ASSET VALUE

Equity at the end of the period amounted to SEK 38,010m (39,244) and the equity/assets ratio was 46 per cent (47). Equity per share attributable to Parent Company shareholders totalled SEK 121 (125). EPRA NRV amounted to SEK 147 per share (150).

CASH FLOW

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital amounted to SEK 995m (1,049). Changes in working capital had an impact on cash flow of SEK 472m (154). Investing activities had an impact on cash flow of SEK –1,764m (−1,762), while financing activities had an impact on cash flow of SEK 243m (530). In investing activities, cash flow is driven by property transactions and projects. Cash and cash equivalents declined by a total of SEK −54m (29) during the period.

FIRST APARTMENTS IN HAGA NORRA SOLD

September saw the start of the sale of Birger Bostad's ongoing project in Haga Norra. First out was BRF Alma, with 23 apartments. Of these, 9 have now been sold with binding purchase contracts. These apartments will be ready for occupancy in March 2025. The next sales phase, starting in October, consists of 50 owner-occupied apartments.

The project comprises a total of 288 apartments, including 190 tenant-owned apartments, 50 owner-occupied apartments and 78 rental apartments. NCC has been engaged as the contractor. It will be a contiguous residential block with a shared inner courtyard and garage.

Financing

Fabege employs long-term credit facilities subject to fixed terms and conditions. The company's creditors mainly comprise the major Nordic banks and investors on the capital market. The capital market has gradually improved in 2024 in terms of both availability and conditions.

FINANCING

Fabege strives to achieve a balance between different forms of financing on both the capital and banking markets, with long-term relationships with major financial backers having high priority. Fabege's bank facilities are complemented by an MTN programme of SEK 18bn, a commercial paper programme of SEK 5bn and the possibility of borrowing a maximum of SEK 6bn via SFF's secured MTN programme.

Expectations that the Riksbank will continue to cut interest rates have led to a steadily falling short-term interest rate. Long-term interest rates also fell significantly during the quarter due to a weaker outlook for the economy. The lower interest rates have led Fabege to enter into several new fixed interest rate swaps. Capital market activity has also been good, resulting in lower credit margins. During the period, Fabege therefore rebalanced its debt portfolio by issuing bonds and amortising bank loans. Overall, financing via the banking market decreased by SEK 2.2bn, and via the capital market it increased by just over SEK 3.0bn.

Interest-bearing liabilities increased slightly during the period, while interest costs remained relatively stable. At the end of the quarter, the total loan volume amounted to SEK 33.7bn, of which SEK 14.9bn was via the capital market and SEK 18.7bn was via the banking market.

Committed lines of credit and undrawn credit facilities, including the backup facility for the commercial paper programme, amounted to SEK 7.0bn at the end of the quarter.

At 30 September 2024, the fixed-term maturity was 3.4 years and the fixed-rate period was 1.8 years. Including the estimated maturity of the callable swaps in the derivatives portfolio, the adjusted maturity is 3.1 years. During the quarter, Fabege signed more traditional interest rate swaps, which at the end of the period totalled SEK 15.7bn, while callable swaps totalled SEK 7.0bn. The traditional swaps mature in 2032 and carry fixed annual interest of between 0.11 and 2.18 per cent.

Net financial items included other financial expenses of SEK 29m, which mainly related to accrued opening charges for credit agreements and costs relating to bond and commercial paper programmes. During the period, interest totalling SEK 69m (41) relating to project properties was capitalised.

Fabege firmly believes in the ability of the financial market to contribute to a more sustainable society, and is keen to play an active role in its transition towards greater accountability. 99 per cent of the loan portfolio is classified as being green.

GREEN FINANCING

Fabege's green financing framework was updated in June 2022. The framework has been designed to give Fabege broad opportunities for green financing and is based on third party-certified properties and ambitious energy consumption targets. It is based on the green bond principles, adapted to the EU taxonomy and linked to Fabege's ambition to contribute to the goals of Agenda 2030. In addition to stringent energy efficiency requirements, this includes climate analyses that assess risks associated with climate change such as flooding, strong winds, intense heat and other extreme weather events. CICERO has issued a second opinion, with ratings of 'medium green' for the green terms and conditions, and 'excellent' for governance. Green financing offers Fabege better terms and access to more financing alternatives.

PROPERTY PORTFOLIO AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

Fabege's property management and urban and property development activities are concentrated on a few selected submarkets in and around Stockholm: Stockholm city centre, Solna, Hammarby Sjöstad and Flemingsberg. On 30 September 2024, Fabege owned 100 properties with a total rental value of SEK 4.1bn, lettable floor space of 1.3m sqm and a carrying amount of SEK 78.2bn, of which improvement and project properties accounted for SEK 13.8bn.

OCCUPANCY RATE

The investment property portfolio's financial occupancy rate was 89 per cent (91) at the end of the period. The biggest vacancies relate mainly to three properties in Solna Business Park and additional vacancies in Arenastaden. The financial occupancy rate for improvement properties is not measured as most of these properties are vacant, or have been partially let on short-term leases pending demolition or redevelopment. These cover an area of 228,000 sqm, of which 140,000 sqm are being let for a current annual rent of SEK 255m. Significant ongoing projects make up a lettable area of approximately 134,000 sqm, with a rental value of SEK 366m.

The occupancy rate in the project portfolio amounted to 85 per cent (39).

NET LETTINGS

During the period, 92 (110) new leases were signed with a combined rental value of SEK 116m (160), and 98 per cent (84) of the space was attributable to green leases. Lease terminations amounted to SEK –201m (–163). Net lettings amounted to SEK –85m (–3). Leases totalling SEK 62m (73) were renegotiated, with an average decline in rental value of 2.1 per cent (1.0). Leases worth SEK 199m (287) were also extended on unchanged terms. The retention rate during the period was 57 per cent (72).

CHANGES IN THE PROPERTY PORTFOLIO

During the second quarter, part of the Kvinten 1 property, Haga Norra, was divested internally to Birger Bostad, which is managing a residential development project on the property at a value of SEK 348m. As a result of the transfer, the property changed character, from an investment property to a development property.

PROJECTS AND INVESTMENTS

The purpose of Fabege's project investments in the investment property portfolio is to reduce vacancy rates and increase rents in the property portfolio, thereby improving cash flows and values. Investments in existing properties and projects during the period totalled SEK 1,732m (2,173), of which SEK 1,188m (1,425) related to investments in project and improvement properties. Capital invested in the investment property portfolio amounted to SEK 544m (748), a significant proportion of which related to tenant customisations. When fully leased, the projects provide an additional annual rental value of SEK 358m.

COMPLETED PROJECTS

During the second quarter, the project for the Royal Swedish Opera and Royal Dramatic Theatre at the Regulatorn 4 property in Flemingsberg was completed. The tenant took possession as planned on 1 June 2024. The annual rental value amounts to SEK 26m.The construction of the garage property in Haga Norra has had its final inspection and the garage opened for parking for Bilia and others in August.

MAJOR ONGOING PROJECTS

New construction of the office building at the Ackordet 1 property, Haga Norra, is proceeding with interior work on installations and tenant adaptations. The investment amounts to an estimated total of just over SEK 1.4bn. The occupancy rate is 66 per cent. The first tenant moved in during August. Forthcoming occupancies will begin in autumn and March. The property is being certified to BREEAM-SE standard, Outstanding.

The segments are presented with the company management's approach divided into segments. Fabege's operations are classified as follows:

  • Property Management properties under ongoing, long-term management.
  • Property Improvement properties properties awaiting a redevelopment or extension that will have a significant impact on ongoing property management and net operating income.
  • Projects Land and development properties, and properties undergoing new construction/complete redevelopment.
  • Residential Birger Bostad carries out residential property development. It's business operations constitute a separate segment.

Rental income and property expenses, as well as realised and unrealised changes in the value of properties, are directly attributable to properties in the respective segments (direct income and expenses). If a property changes type during the year, the earnings attributable to that property are allocated to the respective segments based on the period of time for which the property belonged to each segment. Central administration costs and net financial items have been allocated to segments on a standardised basis according to each segment's share of the total property value (indirect income and expenses). Property assets are directly attributed to the respective segments and recognised on the balance sheet date. All revenue and expenses attributable to Birger Bostad's operations are recognised in the Residential segment.

During the second quarter, part of the Kvinten 1 property, Haga Norra, was divested internally to Birger Bostad, which is managing a residential development project on the property. As a result of the transfer, the property changed character, from an investment property to a development property. In the second quarter, the project for the Royal Swedish Opera and the Royal Dramatic Theatre on the Regulatorn 4 property was completed and the property was reclassified from a project property to an investment property. Furthermore, the property Stigbygeln 3 was reclassified from a improvement property to an investment property. No other reclassifications were made during the period.

Fabege's sustainability work

Our ambition is not limited to developing sustainable city districts, properties and premises. We aim to contribute to a sustainable Stockholm. Our sustainability strategy is an integral part of our business concept, business model and corporate culture.

Goals for 2030

  • Carbon neutral property management.
  • Halving of the climate impact of project development per GFA.

71 kWh/sqm

Average energy use 2023

FABEGE'S HIGHEST RESULT EVER IN GRESB 2024

With a rating of 95 in the assessment relating to property management and 98 in project development, Fabege has received the highest rating, 5 stars, and is ranked number 1 in offices, listed companies in Northern Europe and number 2 in the categories offices in Europe and listed companies in Europe.

SCIENCE BASED TARGETS

Our ambitious climate target has been SBTi-approved since 2020.

Goals & strategy

URBAN DEVELOPMENT

Our approach is rooted in a holistic perspective that aims to strengthen our neighbourhoods as experience-based meeting places, where the primary focus is on comfort, convenience, health and safety. By influencing everything from energy systems to sustainable travel, we can also help reduce our carbon footprint.

Examples of areas of work:

  • Work-life balance
  • District identity and attractiveness
  • Outdoor environments meeting places, green spaces
  • Multifunctionality
  • Bridging physical and social barriers
  • Adaptation to climate change
  • Energy system solution
  • Public transport, accessibility and navigability
  • Security measures
  • Participation and dialogue

REDUCED CARBON FOOTPRINT IN PROJECTS

The targets and roadmap that we have established in support of the Paris Agreement via the Science Based Targets initiative form the backbone of Fabege's work on climate issues. New construction and major refurbishments completed after 2030 will have a 50 per cent lower carbon footprint compared with Fabege's 2019 baseline. During the quarter, we worked in accordance with the first intermediate goal as part of our 2030 commitment:

  • Planning permission before 2025, 20-per cent lower CO2 footprint
  • Circularity index 20% for major renovations

At the beginning of the quarter, a tenant customisation was completed from a premises that consisted of the frame only in Solna Business Park, where the tenant wanted a state-of-the-art office and highstandard training premises that would be

built in the most sustainable way possible. The focus ended up being on reuse and products with a high proportion of recycled materials. The project's circularity index, calculated on all materials added to the project, amounted to 43%.

Fabege has a long-term, target-based and integrated approach to creating more sustainable properties. Our ultimate longterm goal is for Fabege's property management to be carbon neutral, as measured in kg CO2e/sqm, by 2030. By this we mean that we will have control over all the emissions associated with our operations, and we will minimise emissions to the greatest possible extent using the tools available. We will compensate for emissions over which we have no control via carbon offsetting, for example investments in additive technology that reduces the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY TARGETS

Fabege's average energy consumption in 2023 totalled 71 kWh/sqm (specific energy). The target is average energy use of 70 kWh/sqm in 2024.

The cumulative energy consumption of the investment portfolio at the end of the third quarter increased by 4.1% compared to the same period in the previous year, mainly due to external factors such as significantly colder and warmer than normal months in the first three quarters of 2024.

ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION OF PROPERTIES

All project properties and investment properties have been certified to BREEAM-SE/BREEAM In-Use since 2019. New construction is certified according to BREEAM-SE, ambition level Excellent, and the management of properties is certified according to BREEAM In-Use, ambition level Very Good. All residential new builds are certified according to the Nordic Ecolabel.

THE EU TAXONOMY

Fabege is subject to the EU's Non-Financial Reporting Directive. Reporting on the extent to which the Group's activities are eligible for, and aligned with the EU taxonomy can be found in Note 3 EU taxonomy, page 25.

The full tables in accordance with EU taxonomy objective 1, including DNSH criteria and minimum safeguards, are presented in the 2023 Annual Report.

OMX SWEDEN SMALL CAP 30 ESG RESPONSIBLE INDEX

Fabege is included in the OMX Sweden Small Cap 30 ESG Responsible Index (OMXSS30ESGGI) on Nasdaq Stockholm, which highlights companies on the Swedish stock market that show leadership in environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues.

The area for garages, within the building, in a residential building or a commercial building other than a garage, is not included.

During the quarter, work continued on making sustainable improvements to the buildings themselves within the remit of the certifications, and with regard to the property management and operational activities, which resulted in us managing to retain the ratings of four properties in the management portfolio, which have now been recertified to BREEAM In-Use.

SOCIAL SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVES

Fabege collaborates with customers, municipalities, authorities, other property owners and associations to create safe and attractive areas. We are continuing to focus on social sustainability in urban planning and projects as we develop the physical environment in our city districts. Fabege's actions are centred on networks and dialogue, as well as education, leisure time, health and work.

ABOUT THE SUSTAINABILITY REPORT

This is a quarterly follow-up of Fabege's work on sustainability issues. The starting point is Fabege's annual sustainability reporting. The quarterly report has not been prepared in accordance with the GRI guidelines and therefore does not address certain issues.

CSRD/ESRS

We have started preparing for sustainability reporting under the new Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). During autumn 2023, a dual materiality analysis and a gap analysis were carried out as a basis for further work. In 2026, Fabege, which is already covered by the Non-Financial Reporting Directive, will report for the 2025 financial year.

An overall picture of the company's sustainability work is published once a year in the Sustainability Report; find out more at https://www.fabege.se/en/sustainability.

** The properties for which certification has not yet started include land and improvement properties for future project development.

OPPORTUNITIES AND RISKS

Risks and uncertainties relating to cash flow from operations relate primarily to changes in rents, vacancies and interest rates. Risks and opportunities in the parent company are linked to ownership of subsidiariesThe effect of the changes on consolidated profit, including a sensitivity analysis, and a more detailed description of risks and opportunities, are presented in the section on Risks and opportunities in the 2023 Annual Report (pages 50–60).

Properties are recognised at fair value and changes in value are recognised in profit or loss. The effects of changes in value on consolidated profit, the equity/assets ratio and the loan-tovalue ratio are also presented in the section on Risks and opportunities and the sensitivity analysis in the 2023 Annual Report. Financial risk, defined as the risk of insufficient access to long-term funding via loans, and Fabege's management of this risk, are also described in the Risks and opportunities section of the 2023 Annual Report (pages 50–60).

Fabege's aims for the capital structure are to have an equity/assets ratio of at least 35 per cent and an interest coverage ratio of at least 2.2x. The target for the loan-to-value ratio is a maximum of 50 per cent. The long-term debt ratio will amount to a maximum of 13x.

No material changes in the company's assessment of risks have arisen, aside from the above, since the publication of the 2023 Annual Report.

SEASONAL VARIATIONS

Expenses for the running and maintenance of properties are subject to seasonal variations. For example, cold and snowy winters give rise to higher costs for heating and snow clearance, while hot summers result in higher cooling costs. Activity in the rental market is seasonal. Normally, more business transactions are completed in the second and fourth quarters, which means that net lettings in these quarters are often higher.

MARKET OUTLOOK

We note that activity on the rental market in Stockholm has been more cautious, but with continued stable rent levels. Lettings continue to be agreed at good levels, but the indexlinked increases from the start of the year are expected to limit the potential in future renegotiations. Vacancies have generally seen a slight increase during the year.

Access to capital market financing has improved, with significantly lower margins. Market interest rates have peaked and are expected to continue falling during the rest of 2024. Roughly 54 per cent of Fabege's loan portfolio is at fixed rates, which will mitigate the effect of higher market rates for the next few years. Rising interest rates have impacted yield requirements in property valuations. Yield requirements, which had been increasing since the second half of 2022, have stabilised. Completed transactions in Fabege's submarkets confirm that the decline in values has levelled out and that longterm investors are willing to pay well for quality in Stockholm.

Fabege enjoys a consistently strong financial position. We have created new investment opportunities in our areas via the acquisitions completed in recent years. With the acquisition of Birger Bostad in the autumn of 2021, we took a step towards more comprehensive urban development that extends to residential units as well. Fabege's hallmark is stability – we have a portfolio of modern properties in attractive locations, stable customers and committed employees. We are well-placed to take on the challenges and opportunities open to us on the market over the coming year.

Review report

We have carried out a limited assurance review of the interim financial information in summary (the interim report) for Fabege AB as of 30 September 2024 and the nine-month period ending on that date. The Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our limited assurance review.

Scope and focus of the limited assurance review

We conducted our limited assurance 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 limited assurance review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other limited assurance procedures. The procedures performed in a limited assurance review vary in nature from, and are considerably less in scope than for a reasonable assurance engagement conducted in accordance with the ISA and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed consequently do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in a reasonable assurance engagement. Accordingly, we do not express a reasonable assurance conclusion.

Conclusion

Based on our limited assurance review, no circumstances have come to light that give us reason to consider that the interim report has not, in all material respects, been 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.

Notes

NOTE 1 DERIVATIVES

Derivatives are measured at fair value as Level 2 assets in the the balance sheet.. The derivatives portfolio is measured at the present value of future cash flows. Changes in value are recognised in profit or loss. Changes in value are recognised for accounting purposes and have no impact on cash flow. At maturity, the market value of derivative instruments is always zero. The valuation assumptions have not changed significantly compared with the most recent annual report.

NOTE 2 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

On the balance sheet date, contingent liabilities comprised guarantees and commitments in favour of associated companies and subsidiaries of SEK 484m (490) and other 0 (0).

NOTE 3 EU TAXONOMY

Percentage of activities eligible for the taxonomy

Key ratios Total, SEKm Activities eligible for the taxonomy, % Activities not eligible for the taxonomy, %
Revenue 2,577 100 58
Operating expenditure 121 100 43
Capital expenditure 1,732 100 23

Fabege owns and manages properties, with a primary focus on commercial properties in the Stockholm area. The vast majority of the property portfolio falls within the scope of the taxonomy and the economic activities applied are

CCM 7.1 Construction of new buildings

CCM 7.7 Acquisition and ownership of buildings

The proportion of Fabege's operations that are environmentally sustainable according to the EU Taxonomy Regulation is reported based on three financial indicators: turnover, operating expenditure and capital expenditure.

Recognition of turnover:

All turnover related to the properties included in the economic activities above are recognised. This refers to rental income, including the standard supplements. No material income that should be excluded has been identified.

Recognition of operating expenditure:

Operating expenditure includes property management costs, regular repairs, maintenance and expensed tenant adaptations. Birger Bostad's production costs for residential development are recorded as operating expenses but are not included here, as they do not fall within the definition of operating expenses according to the taxonomy.

Recognition of capital expenditure:

Relates to capital expenditure for acquisitions and capitalised investment expenditure related to the properties included in the economic activities.

Percentage of activities aligned with the taxonomy

Fabege contributes significantly to objective 1, i.e. climate change mitigation, including the Do No Significant Harm criteria. The existing properties assessed as being aligned with objective 1 have an EPC-A level energy performance certificate or are in the top 15 per cent in terms of primary energy use in Sweden (in accordance with the definition applied by the Swedish Property Federation for existing buildings). The properties have undergone a climate resilience analysis.

According to Fabege's assessment, 58 per cent of its turnover, 43 per cent of its operating expenditure and 23 per cent of its capital expenditure are aligned with the taxonomy, based on fulfilment of objective 1 (CCM), including the DNSH criteria. The outcome is based on rolling 12-month outcomes up to and including Q3 2024 for primary energy figures. The reason for the percentage of capital expenditure that is green being reported as low is that Fabege has chosen to make a conservative assessment of ongoing new construction projects and interpret that they are covered by all DNSH requirements in 7.1. These are reported as non-compliant with the taxonomy, as interpretations of the DNSH requirements and documentation of this to demonstrate compliance are not yet fully in place. Fabege believes that, in the long term, at least part of the capital expenditure will be classified as being aligned with the taxonomy.

Fabege also meets the taxonomy's requirements for Minimum Safeguards related to human rights, anti-corruption, transparency regarding tax burdens and fair competition.

The full tables are only presented annually and can be found on pages 83–86 of Fabege's Annual and Sustainability Report for 2023.

FABEGE 2024/Q3 2024 26

This is Fabege

Fabege is one of Sweden's leading property companies. We develop attractive and sustainable city districts, with a primary focus on commercial properties within a limited number of well-located submarkets in the Stockholm region.

We are one of the largest property owners in Stockholm and have a clear strategy for our property holdings, with a portfolio grouped into clusters. The Group also includes Birger Bostad, which is a property development company focused on residential and public-services property. The large number of residential development rights that we hold means that together we have a great opportunity to create mixed-use developments in our city districts. The concentration of our properties in well-contained clusters ensures greater customer proximity and, when coupled with Fabege's thorough knowledge of the market, creates a solid foundation for efficient property management and high occupancy rates. On 30 September 2024, Fabege owned 100 properties with a total rental value of SEK 4.1bn, lettable floor space of 1.3m sqm and a carrying amount of SEK 78.2bn, of which improvement and project properties accounted for SEK 14.1bn. The value of development properties in Birger Bostad totalled SEK 0.7bn.

Business concept

Fabege develops sustainable city districts, with a primary focus on commercial properties within a limited number of welllocated submarkets in the Stockholm region.

Value is created via property management, property development, project development and transactions. We are keen to be a supportive partner that puts people front and centre and enables companies, locations and our city to develop.

BUSINESS MODEL

Fabege is active in three business areas: Property Management, Property Development and Transactions.

STRATEGY FOR GROWTH

Fabege's strategy is to create value by managing, improving and developing its property portfolio and, through transactions, to acquire and divest properties with the aim of increasing the property portfolio's potential. Fabege's properties are located in the most liquid market in Sweden. Attractive locations lead to a low vacancy rate in the investment property portfolio. Modern properties permit flexible solutions and attract customers. With its concentrated portfolio and high-profile local presence, investments to enhance the appeal of an area benefit many of Fabege's customers.

VALUE DRIVERS

Fabege's operations are affected by a number of external factors, such as the pricing of and demand for premises, the transaction market's yield requirements, and changes in market interest rates, which create the conditions for the company's success.

THE STOCKHOLM MARKET

Stockholm is one of the five metropolitan areas in Western Europe with the highest rate of population growth. The population of Stockholm County is forecast to continue to grow over the next 20 years. However, since the second half of 2023, growth in the number of people employed in office activities has slowed down slightly.

Changing demand

New technology and new working methods are fuelling demand for flexible and space-efficient premises in prime locations. Peripheral services and effective communication links in the form of public transport are in increasing demand, as are environmentally-certified offices and green leases.

Economic trends

The property market is impacted by trends in both the Swedish and the global economy. Demand for premises is closely linked to GDP growth and companies' need for premises. Changes in market interest rates affect required rates of return.

Sustainable urban development

Sustainability issues are becoming increasingly important in terms of both individual properties and entire areas. Interest in environmental considerations relating to the choice of materials and energy-saving measures is on the rise. Demand is increasing for premises in areas with a good mix of offices, retail, service and residential units, and good transport links and environmental engagement.

Business model

PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

The essence of Fabege's operations is finding the right premises for customers' specific requirements and ensuring customer satisfaction. This is accomplished through long-term efforts, based on close dialogue with the customer, which build mutual trust and loyalty.

PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

High-quality property improvement is the second key cornerstone of our business. Fabege has longstanding experience in the management of extensive property improvement projects, and endeavours to attract long-term tenants for properties that have not yet been fully developed and can be redesigned based on customers' specific requirements.

TRANSACTIONS

Property transactions are an integral part of Fabege's business model and make a significant contribution to the company's earnings. The company continuously analyses its property portfolio in order to utilise opportunities to generate capital growth through acquisitions and divestments.

Definitions

Fabege presents certain financial performance measures in the Interim Report that are not defined in IFRS. The company believes that these more industry-specific measures provide valuable supplementary information for investors and the company's management, as they enable an assessment and benchmarking of the company's reporting. Since not all companies calculate financial performance measures in the same way, they are not always comparable with measures used by other companies. These financial performance measures should therefore not be regarded as substitutes for measures defined in IFRS. The following key performance indicators are not defined in IFRS, unless otherwise stated.

ACTUAL DEFERRED TAX

Estimated actual deferred tax has been calculated as approximately 4 per cent based on a 3 per cent discount rate. Furthermore, it has been assumed that loss carryforwards are realised over four years with a nominal tax rate of 20.6 per cent, which results in a net present value for deferred tax assets of 19.7 per cent. The calculation is also based on the property portfolio being realised over 50 years, 10 per cent being sold directly with a nominal tax rate of 20.6 per cent, and the remaining 90 per cent being sold indirectly via companies with a nominal tax rate of 6 per cent, which results in a net present value for deferred tax liabilities of 4 per cent.

CASH FLOW FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES PER SHARE

Cash flow from operating activities (after changes in working capital) divided by the average number of shares outstanding.

DEBT/EQUITY RATIO

Interest-bearing liabilities divided by shareholders' equity.

DEBT RATIO

EPRA EPS

Profit from property with deduction for nominal tax attributable to the management result, divided by the average number of shares. Taxable management profit refers to management profit with deductions for e.g. a tax-deductible depreciation and conversions.

EPRA NDV – NET DISPOSAL VALUE

Equity according to the balance sheet with reversal of goodwill according to the balance sheet. Withdrawal of decided, unpaid dividend.

EPRA NRV – NET REINVESTMENT VALUE

Equity according to the balance sheet with return of interest derivatives and deferred tax according to the balance sheet. Withdrawal of decided, unpaid dividend.

EPRA NTA – NET TANGIBLE ASSETS

Equity according to the balance sheet with return of interest derivatives, goodwill and deferred tax according to the balance sheet. Adjusted for actual deferred tax instead of nominal deferred tax. Withdrawal of decided, unpaid dividend.

RETENTION RATE*

Proportion of leases that are extended in relation to the proportion of cancellable leases.

RETURN ON EQUITY

Profit for the period/year divided by the average shareholders' equity including noncontrolling interests. In interim reports, the return is converted into its annualised value without taking seasonal variations into account.

RETURN ON INVESTED CAPITAL IN THE PROJECT PORTFOLIO*

The change in the value of project and development properties, divided by the capital invested (excluding the initial value) in project and development properties during the period.

RETURN, SHARE

Dividend for the year divided by the share price at year-end.

SURPLUS RATIO*

Net operating income divided by rental income.

TOTAL RETURN ON PROPERTIES
