REAL ESTATE PORTFOLIO BY REGION
REAL ESTATE PORTFOLIO BY CATEGORY
Castellum – a short description
BUSINESS CONCEPT
Castellum's business concept is to develop and add value to its real estate portfolio, focusing on the best possible earnings and asset growth, by offering customized commercial properties, through a strong and clear presence in fi ve Swedish growth regions - Greater Gothenburg, Öresund Region, Greater Stockholm, Mälardalen and Eastern Götaland.
FOCUS ON CASH FLOW
The objective is to focus on cash flow growth, which along with a stable capital structure provide the preconditions for good growth in the company, while at the same time offering shareholders a competitive dividend. The objective is an annual growth in cash flow of at least 10%. In order to achieve this objective, investments of at least SEKm 1,000 per year will be made. All investments will contribute to the objective of growth in income from property management within 1-2 years and have a value potential of at least 10%.
Cash fl ow for the year, i.e. income from property management, amounted to SEKm 924, equivalent to SEK 5.63 per share. The improvement is 5% and is an effect of improved net operating income in the property management and investments made, but has been limited by higher interest costs.
REAL ESTATE PORTFOLIO WITH COMMERCIAL FOCUS
Castellum is one of the major listed real estate companies in Sweden. The fair value of the real estate portfolio amounts to approx. SEK 28 billion and comprises commercial properties. Within each of the regions where Castellum is present focus is placed on market areas and sub-markets where suffi cient volume can be found to provide the prerequisites for good business opportunities by rational management and strong presence. During 2007, Castellum made entries in two new markets, Linköping and Halmstad.
Investments, i.e. enhancement and development of existing properties, acquisitions of new properties and new construction, are carried out in areas with high growth rates where opportunities are found for increased occupancy rates, increased rental levels and improved cash fl ows. During 2007, Castellum made investments totaling SEKm 2,598, of which SEKm 1,514 were acquisitions and SEKm 1,084 new construction, extensions and refurbishment.
Castellum makes the assumption that the required market yield fell during the fi rst six months of 2007 and thereafter remained unchanged. Changes in value for the year amounted to SEKm 919 and is mainly made up of three parts: approx. SEKm 375 is assigned to lower required market yields of 0.1% seen during the fi rst six months, approx. SEKm 275 is assigned to new constructions, extensions and refurbishment projects started during the last quarter, and approx. SEKm 200 is assigned to improvements in future cash fl ows chiefl y depending on an expected increase in rental levels based on the infl ation.

DECENTRALIZED AND SMALL SCALE ORGANIZATION
Castellum's operations are run in a small-scale organization comprising six subsidiaries which own and manage the properties under their own brands. By having local roots the subsidiaries get close relations with the customers, and good knowledge of the market situation and rental development within each market area. Property management is mainly carried out by own personnel.
Castellum shall have skilled and committed employees, which is achieved as the group shall be an attractive workplace with good development possibilities. At the turn of the year the Castellum group had 208 employees and each subsidiary has about 30 employees.
Castellum views a sustainable development with economic growth, social development and environmental concern a prerequisite for successful business operations.
CUSTOMERS
Good and long-term customer relations and hence satisfi ed customers is a prerequisite for creating long-term growth in Castellum. This is achieved by providing effi cient and well situated premises meeting the customers' needs regarding both appropriate premises as well as service.
During the year, 796 new lease contracts were signed with a total annual value of SEKm 315, while contracts terminated amounted to SEKm 180. Hence, net leasing for the year was SEKm 135. Of the new signed contracts 76% came from own networks, recommendations or existing customers expanding, while 15% came through web pages, and the remainder came through agents.
Castellum has a good risk exposure in the lease portfolio, consisting of 4,128 commercial contracts spreading over many sectors and durations. The average economic occupancy rate during 2007 was 87.9%.
STABLE CAPITAL STRUCTURE
Castellum's strategy is to have a stable capital structure, meaning a borrowing ratio not permanently exceeding 55% and an interest coverage ratio of at least 200%. As of December 31, 2007 the borrowing ratio was 45% and the interest coverage ratio for 2007 was 287%.
Castellum's dividend policy is that at least 60% of income from property management after full tax deduction will be distributed, however investment plans, consolidation needs, liquidity and financial position in general will be taken into account. The Board proposes the Annual General Meeting 2008 a dividend of SEK 3.00 per share, which is an increase of 5% compared to previous year. The dividend ratio is 74%.
THE CASTELLUM SHARE
Castellum will work for a competitive total return in the company's share in relation to the risk and for a high liquidity. The company's actions will be made from a long term perspective.
The Castellum share is listed on OMX Nordic Exchange in Stockholm and had at December 31, 2007 approx. 7,300 shareholders, of which 51% Swedish and 49% foreign. The Castellum share price at the same time was SEK 67.25, which is equivalent to a market capitalization of SEK 11 billion. During 2007, the total yield of the Castellum share has been -23.2%, including dividend of SEK 2.85.

CEO's Comments
The rental market refl ects the development of the Swedish economy. During the last years the employment rate in Sweden has improved and led to increased demand for premises and higher net leasing for the real estate companies. On the interest rate market the growing concern for infl ation has led to increasing market interest rates. At the same time there is a beginning shortage on good premises which has led to increasing rental levels and new construction. This is where we are right now.
I feel that Castellum has capitalized on the economic upswing in a good way. The employees in the organization, which cannot be commended enough for their efforts, have during 2007 in a fantastic way succeeded in attracting both existing and new customers. Through the Satisfi edCustomerIndex we know that the customers' opinion of Castellum as a good landlord has improved further. During the year almost 800 new contracts were signed which gives a record high net leasing of SEKm 135 on an annual basis.
With high required yields we have invested SEK 2.6 billion in properties with development potential, of which 1.1 billion are new constructions, extensions and refurbishment – an investment in Swedish industry. Properties with signifi cant vacancies have been acquired over the last years and there is starting to be a lack of vacant premises in some market areas.
Income from property management for 2007 was SEKm 924, which is an improvement of 5%. It is not in line with the high set objective of 10% annual growth, but considering the increasing interest rates during the year, which correspond to higher interest costs of over SEKm 50 or 6% of income from property management, it was still a relatively good year.
If the rental and interest rate markets to a large degree are predictable depending on the growth in Swedish economy, the real estate market is much harder to predict. The required yields are expected to have reached their lowest level during the summer 2007 and both the demand as well as the supply have in general went down compared to the record year 2006. The changes in value of Castellum's properties amounted to SEKm 920 and refer mainly to gains on started projects and expected increases in rental levels based on the infl ation, but also the effect of reduced required yields during the fi rst six months.
Income after changes in value and tax was SEKm 1,487. The dividend, which is proposed to increase by 5% to SEK 3 per share, is well in line with both the growth in income from property management as well as previous dividend ratios.
Castellum's balance sheet is still strong. Based on the current earnings capacity and dividend, stable property values and an upper limit for the borrowing ratio of 55%, Castellum may over the next three years make investments of over SEK 8 billion. Castellum's access to long term funding remains good has not been affected by the international credit squeeze.
In tune with the international credit markets' changed perception of risk and the uncertainty on the real estate market the stock market has during 2007 revalued shares in general and shares in real estate companies in specifi c. Following a number of years with high total yields and an "alltime-high" of SEK 107 per share as late as in April 2007, the share price have dropped signifi cantly. The total yield for the past year was -23%. It is a poor consolation that the real estate index for Europe was even worse -32%.
Regardless of which estimates the stock market makes, Castellum has never had a stronger cash fl ow, higher net asset value or higher dividend.
What is to come in 2008?
Even if the new year has started off well for Castellum the general opinion is that a downturn in the high economic growth is expected. Castellum's cash fl ows are affected relatively slowly by economic fl uctuations due to the long periods of time between the signing of a lease and the time of moving in, changed market rents and renegotiations, terminations and moving out as well as the spread interest rate maturity structure.
The high net leasing during the last years will have a positive effect on the vacancies. The rental levels will increase, mainly as an effect of index adjustments based on the infl ation in 2007. New construction is relatively limited in most market areas. It is therefore not likely that new construction on speculation will increase vacancies and limit the increase in rental levels already seen.
Even if the interest rate market currently is volatile, Castellum's interest costs will likely increase also in 2008. The average interest rate level during 2007 was 4.2%, which is approx. 0.5%-units lower than for an equivalent portfolio at this moment.
In order to achieve the objective of growth in income from property management it is important that both the pace of and the yields on the investments are high. Castellum currently makes investments of approx. SEK 2.5 billion per year and has for 2008 an additional SEK 1 billion in ongoing projects. A special effort has been made in order to increase the share of own projects such as new construction, extensions and refurbishment, which often a return a higher yield than acquisitions.
The big question in the real estate sector is what will happen to property prices. I do not exclude that a reduction in prices may take place, but in that case expect it to be relatively limited. A reduction in prices also creates business opportunities for a company with a strong balance sheet.
Castellum has a strategy with focus on cash fl ows and a low fi nancial risk where good customer relations and committed employees are prioritized. It is a strategy that lasts over business cycles.

Organization
Castellum's strategy is to manage its properties in a decentralized and small-scale organization with wholly owned subsidiaries and strong presence on the sub-markets. By having local roots the subsidiaries get close relations with the customers and knowledge of their operations and needs.

The subsidiaries organizations are not identical but are in principal made up of a Managing Director, 3-5 market areas, business developers and 3-5 employees within fi nance and administration. Each market area employs one property manager with one assistant, one person working with leasing and 2-4 facility managers, where everyone has customer contact. The fl at organization gives a short decision making process and creates a customer oriented and active organization. Castellum's subsidiaries operate under their own names which are strong brands on each sub-market.
Property management is mainly carried out by own personnel.
PURCHASING EXTERNAL SERVICES
In cases where external services are purchased, high demands are placed on suppliers in terms of quality, customer contact, service and environmental awareness. The company possesses decentralized purchasing expertise for negotiations of new construction, extension or refurbishment work. The group does not have its own organization for undertaking contracts.
MEASURING, COMPARING AND CONTROLLING
Castellum measures and compares the subsidiaries' management effi ciency and asset value growth in the real estate portfolio. Within the group experiences are shared between the companies and specialist expertise can therefore be made available to the whole organization.
Castellum's operations are controlled by rules for decision making and work allocation, policies and instructions. Policies are in place for finance and financial work, information, information safety, environment, insurance, electricity and personnel.
PARENT COMPANY
The parent company Castellum AB is responsible for matters concerning the stock market (such as consolidated reports and stock market information) and the credit market (such as funding and fi nancial risk management) as well as overall IT/IS strategies and personnel matters. The parent company has 13 employees.
The parent company takes part in operations by involvement in the Board of the subsidiaries.
SUPPORT SYSTEMS
The application of support systems such as IT/IS within the group shall enable a safe and effective reporting and monitoring of operations. The technical platform is made up of local networks integrated into a group wide network and is made up of standard products which provide high security and lower maintenance costs in the long term.
Employees
Castellum has the objective of being an attractive workplace with development possibilities, which provide good conditions for skilled and committed employees. The employees' attitudes are measured regularly in order to develop the group. Satisfi ed employees give satisfi ed customers which is a prerequisite for achieving Castellum's objectives.
TRAINING AND SHARING OF EXPERIENCES
Within Castellum both internal and external training programs are provided in order for having skilled and committed employees. For example many group-wide development programs specifi ed for different work tasks have been held. The development programs provide increased knowledge, motivation for continued development work and improved contact among employees within the group. Beside the group-wide development programs individual competence development programs takes place when needed.
In order to create the conditions for sharing of experience between the companies, group-wide projects are held with members from all companies. The projects cover topics such as valuation and marketing issues. Apart from the projects there are fi xed groups which are regularly discussing issues in specifi c areas such as fi nance, IT, environment and personnel.
ATTRACTIVE WORKPLACE
Recruiting and keeping good employees is important and Castellum is active in a number of areas in order to improve motivation and participation among the employees. The fl at organization provides every employee with well defi ned areas of responsibility with a high level of fl exibility within each area, which mean both professional as well as personal development. Castellum works on recruiting within the group in order to improve the employees' opportunities for development.
The employees' health is important and Castellum works with health issues and offers good corporate health services and benefi cial health insurance.
A bonus program is applied that provides every employee with the opportunity to take part in their respective company's achieved improvement in the results.
Once a year all employees within the Castellum group meet in order to share experiences and strengthen the feeling of group spirit.
Since Castellum was founded sound business practice, good communication and a work environment where the employees feel pleasure and comfort has been highly appreciated. The employees' view on Castellum is measured in a survey showing their attitudes towards their own working conditions, the company and its management. Castellum receives high marks in the survey and the employees show great faith in the company and are well familiar with the organization's objectives and strategies. The survey is completed every 18 month in order to give time to refl ect on and work with the views that come to light.

Customers
The local subsidiaries shall offer appropriate premises and service satisfying the customer's needs. Therefore good and long-term customer relations are a prerequisite for creating growth in Castellum.
BEING CLOSE TO THE CUSTOMER
The local property management organization provides a natural possibility for planned, frequent meetings with the customer in order to receive information about current and future operations. Thereby Castellum can, in plenty of time, work together with the customer on fi nding solutions when their needs change. Castellum's fl at organizational structure with a short decision making process and power to act provides for good business opportunities.
The property managers and the local facility managers work close to the customers and feel great responsibility for offering high quality premises, good personal service, quick answers and responsible actions. This will build up a long-term competitive advantage for Castellum.
ADDED VALUE
Facility management services create added value and is an important competitive advantage in leasing. Castellum works on matters which will improve the attractiveness of the area where the customer is operating and with issues that can improve and facilitate the customer's day-today operations. Examples on measures are coordination in order to improve security within an area, memberships in networks that may lead to business to business-relationships and support with procurement of services such as cleaning and furnishing.
In order to receive further knowledge of what may affect the local rental market the subsidiaries co-operate with municipalities and are active in local networks, such as company associations.
The local companies give out information through customer news letters and web pages on a regular basis.
SATISFIED CUSTOMER INDEX
As a basis for continued improvement work, customers' attitudes are measured by means of various internal and external surveys. Castellum has for several years participated in the Property Barometer Satisfi ed Customer Index (SCI). The SCI measures the customers' views on areas such as the premises, location, rent, service and communication. The survey shows that the customers' faith in Castellum is consistently high.

Castellum has a good risk exposure in the lease portfolio, regarding both fields of business and length of contracts. The group has 4,128 commercial contracts, where the single largest contract makes up for 1% of Castellum's total rental income.
LEASING ACTIVITY
During 2007 the organization signed 796 new contracts with a total annual value of SEKm 315. The leasing activity shows the importance of taking care of the customers and the networks. Of the new signed contracts 76% came from own networks, recommendations or existing customers expanding, while 15% came from web pages, and the remainder came through agents.
DISTRIBUTION OF LEASES BY INDUSTRY
LEASING ACTIVITY
Responsible Business
A prerequisite for achieving Castellum's objective of the best possible income and asset growth in the real estate portfolio is to work for a sustainable development regarding economic growth, environmental concern and social responsibility. Castellum views responsible business as a competitive advantage in order to receive greater faith by the customers, the employees, the share holders and the society at large.
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
The social responsibility covers responsibility for the employees and effects on the environment and the society where the company is operating. Castellum has since the company was founded worked on creating a corporate culture with a good work environment where the employees' skills and commitment are utilized and developed. The work is followed up by regular employee and customer surveys with good results.
Castellum is active in order to develop and help make the regions where the company is present more attractive for both companies operating in the region and for the inhabitants. This is done by new construction, extensions and refurbishment of buildings, but also through engagement in corporate associations and co-operation with municipalities, universities and colleges.
In 2001, Castellum adopted a document regarding corporate values for a responsible business. The values cover commercial viability, quality and service, laws, discrimination, work environment, safety and social responsibility/social benefi t. The values Castellum applies with regard to human rights, labour conditions and environmental issues are largely in line with the UN's Global Compact code of conduct with its ten principles.
Besides the document regarding Castellum's values policies are in place for personnel, work environment, equal opportunities, salaries, pensions, cars, alcohol and drugs. Castellum is a company with operations in Sweden and is hence subject to Swedish laws.
RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
Castellum's strategy is to develop the real estate portfolio with the least possible impact on the environment and use resources sparingly in order to contribute towards achieving a long term sustainable development.
The environmental work began in 1995 by adoption of an environmental policy, identifying environmental areas where Castellum has impact, setting objectives and work methods. Since then, all environmental areas have been addressed and for the areas energy and material selection and waste in particular major work has been done over the last 10 years. Today Castellum's environmental work focus on energy and material selection in order to reduce energy consumption, choosing renewable energy sources and identifying hazardous materials in the properties.
The environmental work is a natural part in the operations for both employees and management. The work improves quality in property management, which creates added value for the customers and large potential savings.
As a confi rmation that the work is making progress, Castellum has for many years been rated as one of the most environmentally progressive listed companies selected by both Swedish and foreign investors. In 2007 Castellum was selected to be part of Dow Jones Sustainability World Index. The index includes companies which from an economic, environmental and social standpoint are considered to be market leaders.
Castellum's environmental policy: "Castellum's business shall be run with the least possible impact on the environment and shall use resources sparingly in order to contribute towards achieving a sustainable development. Castellum considers society's demands as defi ned in laws and ordinances to be minimum requirements. The Castellum Group shall strive to achieve continuous improvements to reduce any environmental impact and prevent pollution.
The environmental policy includes all parts of Castellum's operations, not only management, improvement and acquisition but also new construction of properties. Environmental work must be an integrated, natural element of the company's operations."
Organization, controlling and follow-up
Castellum's environmental work is controlled through an environmental management system consisting of a common environmental policy, guidelines and overall strategies for a number of environmental areas.The environmental work is done locally by each subsidiary and is followed up every year. The work is reported at each subsidiary's Board meetings.
The group management takes an active part in the work and has the fi nal responisibility. The environmental work covers all areas of Castellum's operations and external audits of the work in all companies are carried out every year with good results.
Within the group there is an environmental group with each subsidiariy's environmental co-ordinator which meet regularly in order to share experiences and monitor the development taking place in the world at large.
Constantly improving knowledge is a basic condition in Castellum's decentralized organization and all employees have received basic training in environmental matters. Most employees have also completed training in specifi c areas such as energy matters and ECO-driving.
Energy efficiency, green electricity and renewable energy sources
Castellum is working actively towards reducing energy consumption and turning to renewable energy sources in order to minimize the company's inpact on the environment. Examples of measures implemented are computerized control and regulatory systems för heating and ventilation, replacement of fans and pumps, adaptation of heating and ventilation to meet users' needs and motion controlled lighting.
Work is in progress of converting heating to renewable heating sources, i.e. replacing oil and gas with district heating and ground heating/cooling. When using district heating as source of heating Castellum is dependent on the district heating facilities' mix of fuels for emissions of carbon dioxide. Castellum uses today 22 district heating facilities. Out of Castellum's emissions of carbon dioxide 99% are from heating.
Since 2001, only electricity labelled environmental friendly are used by the Castellum group.
Environmental inventory of properties
An inventory regarding any possible environment or health risk such as hazardous substances, ground pollution, moist/mould, and operations requiring special permits, has been completed for 86% of the properties. Castellum's work on follow-up on energy consumption and environmental inventories makes the company well prepared for the EU directive regarding energy declaration of buildings.
Castellum has no ongoing environmental disputes. Castellum operations which require special permits are transportation of fl uorescent lamps and ground heating facilities.
Requirements on suppliers
On larger purchases and procurements demands are placed on the contractor to show an environmental policy and a plan for material handling, selection of products and materials, work methods, work environment, materials and environmental description and waste handling. External experts are used partly to control that the placed demands are followed.
Communication and co-operation
Information about the progress being made and to cooperate with others on environmental issues is important in order to push the work forward. Information about the work is provided by such means as information meetings, customer visits, customer newsletters and the Internet to customers and other interested parties.
Castellum is active in the Swedish Energy Agency's "Procurement group for premises", Byggsektorns kretsloppsråd and the EU-project "GreenBuilding", in order to make buildings more energy effi cient.

LISTED REAL ESTATE COMPANIES
The Real Estate Portfolio
In Sweden there are almost three million properties with a total tax assessment value of SEK 4,600 billion, of which the majority are residential properties. Out of the commercial properties in Sweden, Castellum, which is one of the major real estate owners in Sweden, is estimated to own roughly 1-2% while all of the listed Swedish real estate companies are estimated to own roughly 8-10%.
The largest real estate owners in Sweden are, in addition to the listed companies, publicly owned companies as well as Swedish and foreign institutional investors. In addition, there are a large number of smaller real estate owners, such as smaller real estate and construction companies, the user and private persons. Due to the scattered ownership without any dominating real estate owner, the competitors differ between the different local markets.
STRONG GROWTH IN SWEDISH ECONOMY
The fast growth in the world economy has been favourable for a small, strongly export dependent country like Sweden. The growth in GDP over the last fi ve years has been very rapid in Sweden compared to the growth in the Euro-area. The growth in GDP during 2007 was 3.5%, which is somewhat lower than for the record year 2006.
The growth is also refl ected in the development of the companies' salary payments, growth in the households' disposable income and in employment rate. The employment rate increased by 1.8% during 2006 and the improvement covers both the private sector, where the service industry has had a particularly strong trend, and the public sector.
The level of investments is high within both the private and the public sectors. The industry shows an overall improvement with major investments in buildings, facilities and equipment for all fields of business during 2007.
The economic growth over the last ten year period is not uniform on all of the nations' local markets. Population growth, employment and economic growth has above all been concentrated to the three major urban regions and other larger growth regions.
Sweden's long term economic development is dominated by the already large regions becoming larger. The reason for this being greater household mobility over the last decades due to higher level of education and improved infrastructure. A region with a center of high productive industries being able to afford higher salaries can attract a greater geographic region, i.e. it pays for more people to commute further distances. The local markets' size and density are factors becoming more important for the ability to compete and grow. Size and multitude improve with interaction, meaning that growth in population and employment in larger regions to some degree become self generating.
THE RENTAL MARKET
The rental market, i.e. the market for leasing of premises, strongly correlates with the development of Swedish economy. Provided that the supply does not increase more than the demand, the vacancy rates will improve giving the potential for increased rental levels. Continued growth and demand together with low vacancy rates and increasing rental levels makes new construction possible giving an increased supply as a consequence. Stagnation in the economy gives the opposite relation.
The growth in the economy and the business environment has had a positive development since 2004, which in the beginning was mainly an effect of improved effi ciency and cost savings but later lead to increased employment rates and improved demand for premises. During 2007, the demand for commercial premises has been good for all categories and on all sub-markets and new construction in general has been limited. The recent years' reduction in vacancy rates has lead to increased rental levels on some sub-markets and for some categories.
THE REAL ESTATE MARKET
The real estate market in 2007 has seen a historically high volume of transactions even if it was lower than for the record year 2006. The total volume of transactions in Sweden during the year amounted to approx. SEK 130 billion. Foreign investors have been active also in 2007 and their share of the total volume of transactions was somewhat higher than last year. The number of completed transactions decreased during the last six months, which can be partly explained by the international credit squeeze with changed conditions for funding and assessment of risk.
The Swedish real estate market has changed over the last years with an increasing number of investors, both international and domestic, which has meant increasing competition for the objects of investment. The Swedish market today is signifi ed by being highly international and transparent.
During a number of years the required yields in Sweden has dropped, but has remained relatively stable since the turn of the half-year 2007. A positive rental market combined with slightly decreasing required yields on many sub-markets during the fi rst six months, have meant somewhat higher prices of property for in principle all categories.
CASTELLUM'S MARKETS
Castellum is present on the nation's major growth regions and approx. 60% of Sweden's 9.2 million inhabitants live within Castellum's regional market areas.
Economic growth is best measured as the development in a market area's total sum of wages. Both growths in total employment rates as well as growth in the sum of wages is higher within Castellum's market areas, 1.2% average growth per year respectively 4.1% per year for the period 1995- 2006. This may be compared with 0.8% and 3.7% for the nation.
In order to analyze the regional markets' growth and risk, the average annual growth in the sum of wages for each market may be studied while the risk (standard deviation in growth) is measured over time. Some markets are due to their size and business structure less dependent on changes in the world around than others and have their own inherent power to grow. The most favourable are those with high growth and low risk. The following figure shows Sweden's regional markets where Castellum's markets are shown in red.

CASTELLUM'S REAL ESTATE PORTFOLIO
Castellum's real estate portfolio is concentrated to a few selected submarkets where the local subsidiaries have a strong position. Castellum's geographical sub-markets can be characterised as stable, with good prospects for long-term positive growth.
On December 31, 2007 Castellum's real estate portfolio comprised 549 properties (515) with a total rental value of SEKm 2,654 (2,400) and a total lettable area of 3,003,000 sq.m. (2,787,000).
The properties fair value at the year-end amounted to SEKm 27,717 (24,238). For properties owned at the year-end the net operating income was SEKm 1,542 (1,365) on annual basis and changes in value SEKm 919 (1,062).
The real estate portfolio which consists solely of Swedish properties in 34 (31) of the 290 municipalities in the country as a whole, is located in fi ve growth regions: Greater Gothenburg, the Öresund region, Greater Stockholm, Mälardalen and Eastern Götaland. The greater portion of the portfolio is in the three major urban regions.
The commercial portfolio consists of 66% offi ce and retail properties, 30% warehouse and industrial properties as well as 4% development projects and undeveloped land mainly concentrated to well-located employment areas with good means of communications and services.
INVESTMENTS
During the year, investments for a total of SEKm 2,598 (2,283) and sales of SEKm 39 (460) were made.
Of the total investments, SEKm 864 related to Greater Gothenburg, SEKm 679 to Eastern Götaland , SEKm 401 to Mälardalen, SEKm 374 to the Öresund Region and SEKm 280 to Greater Stockholm. During the year Castellum made two entries in new markets, Linköping and Halmstad.
CHANGES IN VALUE
Castellum's valuations at the year-end show a fair value of SEKm 27,717, giving an unrealized increase in value of SEKm 919. The unrealized increase in value mainly consists of:
- Approx. SEKm 375 is assigned to lower required market yields of 0.1% seen during the fi rst six months.
- Approx. SEKm 275 is assigned to new constructions, extensions and refurbishment projects started during the last quarter.
- Approx. SEKm 200 is assigned to improvements in future cash fl ows chiefl y depending on an expected increase in rental levels based on the infl ation.
RENTAL DEVELOPMENT
Castellum's average rental level is SEK 1,121 per sq.m. for offi ce/retail and SEK 647 per sq.m. for warehouse/industrial premises. Rental levels have increased by 3% compared with previous year.
During the year 796 new leases were signed with a total annual value of SEKm 315 (287), while contracts terminated and bankruptcies amounted to SEKm 180 (167). Hence, net leasing for the year was SEKm 135 (120).
Reports on the development in the local markets may be found in each regional summary.

Investments
Castellum's strategy for growth includes constantly improving and developing the real estate portfolio by acquisitions and investments in refurbishment and extensions of existing properties as well as new construction. The investments are made in order to improve cash fl ows and increase the value of the properties.

Castellum completed major projects for a total value of over SEKm 600 and has ongoing projects for a total value of SEKm 1,900, of which the outstanding investment volume amounts to approx. SEKm 900.
Castellum's project portfolio contains good risk exposure with many projects in several locations and with a large number of tenants in several different sectors.
During the year, 4 (12) properties have been sold for a total sales price of SEKm 39 (460).

A facility management organization has been set up in Linköping during 2007 and consists of three people at the year end 2007/2008. Leasing activity for the portfolio has been good following the acquisition and leases have been signed for half of the vacant premises.
The municipality of Linköping is part of Sweden's fourth major urban region and offers a good infrastructure, access to high level education and positive population growth which provide good preconditions for continued growth in the region.
Valsen 2, Kartongen 3, Karossen 3, Flaggan 1 and Fogden 4 in Halmstad
In 2007, Castellum established presence in Halmstad by the acquisition of approx. 30,000 sq.m. properties for SEKm 215. The acquisition comprises retail, offi ce and warehouse premises and the properties have good locations and were in principle fully let at the time of acquisition.
The Halmstad region shows a high growth rate in the number of people employed and a local business consisting of manufacturing, service, trade and tourism. The region has a well developed infrastructure with roads, trains, fl ights, and boat connections. Halmstad holds a college with approx. 7,000 students.

Kärra 74:2 in Gothenburg
Castellum owns the property Kärra 74:2 on Hisingen in Gothenburg, which has a land area of 35,000 sq.m. and a good location for logistics purposes. In December 2007, the company decided on a new construction project for an existing tenant bringing its operations together in Gothenburg and hence had the need for larger premises.
On the property a building comprising 14,000 sq.m. warehouse/ logistics premises and 1,400 sq.m. offi ce premises are under construction, an investment of SEKm 115. Approx. an additional 4,000 sq.m. may be built on the property.
Forskaren 2 in Lund
In the Idéon-area, close to the Faculty of Engineering and Lund University, Castellum completed in 2001 a building comprising 20,000 sq.m. offi ce- and conference premises on the property Forskaren 2, also called Edison Park. This part of Forskaren 2 was an SEKm. 255 investment.
In 2007, Castellum started a 10,000 sq.m. new construction project on the property Forskaren 2. The new building will be completed in the autumn of 2008 and is an SEKm 191 investment. The building will comprise fl exible offi ce premises with high standards and a good location within the area. So far, leases have been signed for approx. 40% of the area.
Varla 3:22 in Kungsbacka
In the end of 2006, Castellum acquired the property Varla 3:22 in Kungsbacka. The property holds a 23,500 sq.m. building and an unutilized building permission of approx, 15,000 sq.m.
In 2007, a new construction project of a 5,600 sq.m. facility for sales and service of cars was started on Varla 3:22. The investment is calculated to SEKm 94 and the building will be completed at the end of 2008. The building will have a fl exible construction with high quality and make up a facility of reference for the customer.

Kärra 75:3 in Gothenburg
In 2008, Castellum will start a new construction project of a facility for sales and service of cars on the property, Kärra 75:3, on Hisingen in Gothenburg. The property has a land area of approx. 20 000 sq.m. and the new car facility of 4,500 sq.m. will include premises for sales of cars and service facilities. The investment is calculated to SEKm 76.
A lease has been signed for the entire property and building will be completed in the beginning of 2009. The new customer, Toyota, with a Japanese parent company has had a clear list of demands put particularly on environmental concern in the negotiations.
Unaman 8 in Växjö
In 2006, Castellum acquired the property Unaman 8 in Växjö. The property has a good location in central Växjö, close to the main shopping strip, Stadshotellet, the Main Square and the railway station. At the time of acquisition the building was in large need of renovation. The objective of acquiring the property was to create an attractive building in central Växjö by major reconstruction.
Unaman 8 was acquired for SEKm 31 and the reconstruction is calculated to an additional SEKm 35 and will be completed in the autumn of 2008. The property has an area of 5,200 sq.m. and the occupancy rate is approx. 80% today.
Gustav Adolf 13 in Malmö
In 2003, Castellum acquired the property Gustav Adolf 13 in Malmö. The building comprised 10,700 sq.m. offi ce premises but with a location in the middle of central Malmö the conditions for retail premises are good.
During 2007 a reconstruction project in order to transform the building was started. The banking operations on the ground and fi rst fl oors have moved higher up in the building and the premises have thereafter been refurbished to attractive retail premises. During the reconstruction the facing on the ground fl oor has been moved further out and hence created additional retail area. The transformation from offi ce premises to retail premises generate a good return on the investment which is calculated to SEKm 75 and will be fi nished in the autumn of 2008.
Visiret 2 in Huddinge
Smista Allé is an expansive business area in Huddinge, in southern Stockholm, along the E4/E20 and close to Kungens Kurva. The area has good means of communications and high visibility.
Castellum will, in 2008, complete a 4,800 sq.m. full service facility for sales of cars, which is an investment of SEKm 60. The property is fully let.
The car dealers in the area have a need for parking and therefore a 7,800 sq.m. five story parking facility will be built in 2008, which is an investment of SEKm 38.
Completed Projects
Dragarbrunn 16:2 in Uppsala
Part of the area Dragarbrunn in the center of Uppsala is undergoing a development project in order to improve the street area and create better conditions for city shopping.

Building Permissions and Potential Development Projects
Part of Castellum's strategy is to construct new premises when this is a competitive alternative. In order to be able to offer the customer new constructed premises with the shortest possible time for moving in, it is a competitive advantage to own building permissions in attractive locations with approved detail plans. Castellum has 816,000 sq.m. unutilized building permissions, which is 66,000 sq.m. more than previous year. For a number of the unutilized building permissions there are fi nalized projects plans which can be started relatively promptly provided that lease agreements have been signed.
Unutilized building permissions are valued to SEKm 812 corresponding to SEK 1,000 per sq.m. on average. Of the building permissions 424,000 sq.m. corresponding to SEKm 484 are recorded as development projects and undeveloped land. The remainders are recorded among offi ce/retail and warehouse/industrial properties since they are addititions to already developed properties.

THE RENTAL MARKET
The Gothenburg region has experienced a continued good economic growth in 2007, which has led to a high demand and decreasing vacancies for both offi ce as well as suitable warehouse and logistics premises. For retail premises the vacancy rate has as in previous year been insignifi cant. The improved market condition combined with limited new construction have meant slightly increasing market rents in many of the market areas. The general vacancy rates in the region are estimated to 8-10% for offi ces and 5-10% for industrial and warehouse premises.

During 2007, a continued large interest was shown for the real estate market in Greater Gothenburg, even if the volume of transactions were lower than in 2006. During the fi rst six months of 2007 the required yield decreased slightly and this in combination with a positive rental market led to increasing property prices for most categories. Real estate transactions of approx. SEK 8 billion were closed during 2007.

Malmö is the nation's third largest municipality with a population of approx. 280,000 people and a strong population growth. The level of education in Malmö is fairly high and the university holds approx. 25,000 students.
Malmö has a well developed infrastructure with the Öresund Bridge, a number of major motorways, a modern harbour and good railroad connections.
The local economy has shifted from previously having a few large companies to consist of many small companies today. Besides private service companies, strong fi elds are logistics, retail and wholesale, as well as construction and real estate companies. More knowledge based companies are found in the fi elds of biotechnology and medicine, environmental technology, IT and digital media.
LUND
Lund is the nation's 12th largest municipality with approx. 105,000 inhabitants and a steady population growth. That Lund holds one of Sweden's oldest universities is clearly seen in the population, where the level of education is very high. The University holds 32,000 students.
Lund has a good infrastructure with the E22 going through and the E6 passing west of the city and the airports Sturup and Kastrup.
Lund's economy has a knowledge based profi le and many smaller companies, often knowledge and research-based, with connections to the university and established companies have been founded, partly through Sweden's fi rst and largest science park, Idéon.
HELSINGBORG
Helsingborg is the nation's ninth largest municipality with approx. 125,000 inhabitants. The population growth in Helsingborg has also been positive.
Helsingborg's strategic location and good infrastructure, with the major motorways E4 and E6 and Sweden's second largest harbour, has made the city to a centre for sea and land transport. Helsingborg is a trade and logistics centre, but also food, medicine and manufacturing are important sectors.
THE RENTAL MARKET
The large growth in the region during 2007 has led to an active rental market and decreasing vacancy rates. There has been a slight increase in rental levels during the year for most categories and market areas.
During 2007, new construction projects were started for offi ce, retail and logistics premises, which may affect vacancy rates and hence the rental levels. The general vacancy rates in Malmö, Lund and Helsingborg are estimated to 5-10% for offi ces, approx. 15% for industrial and warehouse premises, while insignifi cant for retail.

THE REAL ESTATE MARKET
The activity on the real estate market was somewhat lower in 2007 than in 2006. The view, particularly for the last six months of 2007, is that there have been a large number of properties for sale, but that sellers and buyers have had different views on the required yield, which have led to fewer transactions coming to a close. During the fi rst six months of 2007 the property prices increased slightly due to a stable rental market in combination with relatively high demand for all categories. Real estate transactions of approx. SEK 5 billion were closed during 2007 in Malmö, Lund and Helsingborg.

The Greater Stockholm region consists of 23 municipalities which together with Uppsala make up one common employment area with over 2.2 million inhabitants. In the municipality of Stockholm, which is Sweden's largest, has a population of approx. 800,000 inhabitants.
Stockholm is characterized by being the nation's capital and main ground for the political institutions, the Swedish Parliament and for many Swedish companies. The region has Sweden's largest service sector spreading over many fi elds of business and makes up for over 65% of the total sum of wages in the region. The private companies have experienced good growth in the region during 2007, which has had a positive effect on the employment rate. During 1995-2006 the population has grown by 0.9% per year and the trend has continued also during 2007.
The growth in the employment rate has been strong during the same period with an average growth of 1.3% per year. This despite a large drop in the employment rate during the years 2001 to 2004 within service sectors such as IT, telecommunication and fi nancial operations.
The total gross wages have grown quickly in the region. Between 1995- 2006 the growth was 4.3% on an annual basis, compared with the national average of 3.7%. The fastest growth is seen in the in gross wages of the service sector with 6.2%.
Greater Stockholm can be divided into the inner city and the areas north and south of the center. In the northern area there are mainly service-based companies, while there are more production and distribution companies in the south. Both in the north and the south the growth in the number of work places have been gradually concentrated to larger business districts. The largest business districts have been renewed quickly and is where the highest growth in rental levels have been seen.
NORTH
The infrastructure in the northern part of the Greater Stockholm region is well developed with the E4 and E18 as well as the two airports Arlanda and Bromma as important factors. There are also several harbours, which to a large extent are used for passenger transportations. New businesses and growth in the northern areas have to a large extent been concentrated to the stretch between Stockholm and Arlanda, where a number of large business areas have been established such as Kista, parts of Sollentuna and parts of Upplands-Väsby.
The municipality of Sollentuna, with a strategic location between Stockholm city and Arlanda airport, consists of a number of submarkets and has expanded particularly within retail and service companies.
The municipalities of Solna and Sundbyberg in northeastern direction outside the City of Stockholm and the Stockholm city districts Mariehäll/ Ulvsunda in Bromma, are geographically concentrated with proximity to the center of Stockholm and good means of communications. The total market for offi ces in the area is, next after the inner city, the largest within the entire Stockholm region and has shown strong growth in the number of people employed in offi ce
Kista, in the municipality of Stockholm, is the location of Kista Science Park – one of Northern Europe's most dynamic business parks and one of the Stockholm region's largest business areas where approx. 22,000 people work. Kista is dominated by companies operating in mainly in the fi elds of information technology and telecommunication. Also the retail sector has grown strongly.
SOUTH
In southern Stockholm there are a number of offi ce and industrial areas such as Johanneshov, Marievik/Liljeholmen and Västberga. Johanneshov's business structure, including the Globen area, is dominated by service companies, retail and communication. The area has good means of communication with access to the subway, commuter trains and busses. Marievik/Liljeholmen is a more typical offi ce area right outside Stockholm's inner city and Södermalm. Västberga, with proximity to the E4 and the trunk line, is dominated by transportation and logistics companies, warehouses, and manufacturing and construction operations.
In the southernmost part of the City of Stockholm lies Skärholmen and right next to lays Kungens kurva in the municipality of Huddinge. Skärholmen is dominated by trade and Kungens Kurva is one of the largest shopping areas in the Nordic countries. Close to Kungens kurva along the E4 lies the area Smista Allé, which is an area under development particularly towards retail of cars.
THE RENTAL MARKET
The activity and the demand have remained high on the rental market in Stockholm which have led to decreasing vacancy rates in all market areas. An increase in the market rents has been seen in many market areas and for many categories and of a number of large new construction projects have started in 2007. The general vacancy rates have been estimated to 11-18% for offi ces, 5-10% for industrial an warehouse premises, while insignifi cant for retail.
THE REAL ESTATE MARKET
The interest in the real estate market in the Stockholm region remained during 2007 for all types of properties. The strong demand in combination with a positive rental market led to increasing property prices, particularly during the fi rst six months of 2007. Real estate transactions for approx. SEK 33 billion were closed during 2007, which is somewhat lower than in 2006, but still on a high level historically. The largest transactions were located to Stockholm's inner city and Solna.

The employment rate in the region has grown on average 0.5% per year between 1995 and 2006 and the total sum of wages during the same period have grown by 3.4% per year.
THE RENTAL MARKET
The demand for commercial premises has remained high during 2007. This in combination with started new construction projects already being leased, have led to decreasing vacancy rates in a number of market areas. Hence, there is a working balance between supply and demand.
The decreasing vacancy rates have led to slightly increasing rental levels in some segments and categories during the year. The general vacancy rates in the region are estimated to 5-10% for offi ces, 10-15% for industrial and warehouse premises, while insignifi cant for retail.

THE REAL ESTATE MARKET
During 2007, a continued large interest for the real estate market in Eastern Götaland remained. A positive rental market and slightly lower required yields during the fi rst six months resulted in slightly increasing property prices for most categories during the year. Real estate transactions of approx. SEK 5 billion were closed during 2007 in Jönköping, Linköping, Värnamo and Växjö.

The owning of properties demands fi nancing in the form of equity and interest bearing debts. The share of equity in relation to interest bearing debts is decided partly by the chosen fi nancial risk level, partly by the share of equity required to receive loans in banks. By setting objectives for the capital structure the allocation of equity and interest bearing debts are defi ned and the level of fi nancial risk is determined, in order to meet the required return on equity, secure room for investments and to receive necessary funding. Castellum has chosen a strategy with a lower fi nancial risk than the industry as a group.
FINANCIAL POLICY
The fi nancial activities in Castellum are run according to the fi nancial objectives set by the Board in the fi nancial policy. The objectives in the fi nancial policy are:
- Capital structure with a borrowing ratio not permanently exceeding 55% and an interest coverage ratio of at least 200%.
- Secure the need for long-term funding and liquidity.
- Achieve a low and stable net interest income/costs within the given risk mandate.
The fi nancial policy states the given mandates and limits for management of fi nancial risks and overall assignments of responsibility. The Board makes an annual review of the fi nancial policy.
CAPITAL STRUCTURE
The value of Castellum's assets amounts to SEKm 27,891 (24,446). They are fi nanced partly through equity of SEKm 11,204 (10,184) and partly through liabilities of SEKm 16,687 (14,262), of which SEKm 12,582 (10,837) are interest bearing.
ORGANIZATION
All fi nancial risk management is centralised to the parent company. The treasury department is for instance responsible for the Group's funding, interest rate risk management, fi nancing of the subsidiaries and cash management. The treasury department consists of two persons. The parent company also holds a function for accounting and independent control of the fi nancial operations, a so called back-offi ce and compliance function.
RISK MANAGEMENT
Operational risk and fi nancial risk together make up Castellum's overall business risk. The fi nancial operations are carried out in order to within the given risk mandate adjust the fi nancial risk level to meet changes in the operational risk. An increased market interest rate is generally considered to be an effect of economic growth and increasing infl ation, which in turn is considered to lead to an improved demand for commercial properties and hence increasing rents and/or reduced vacancies. Thus increased fi nancial costs during an economic boom will over time be met by higher rental income. In that way the overall business risk can be kept on a stable level.
To be short of necessary funding is Castellum's single largest fi nancial risk. In order to secure the need for liquidity and competitive long term funding regular reviews and renegotiations of existing credit agreements are carried out and new credit agreements are signed when needed. In order to achieve the objective of a stable net interest income/costs fi nancial transactions are carried out based on estimations of the groups overall need for liquidity, funding and chosen interest rate risk.
Interest rate risk occurs due to the fact that the market interest rates change and affect net fi nancial income/costs. By the use of interest rate derivatives the interest rate risk can be managed in a cost effective manner. Castellum works with netting bank accounts in order to be able to use the group's liquidity fl ows and hence reduce the need of liquidity.
Castellum's choice of working mainly with bilateral long term credit agreements in order to secure the need for funding has, besides favourable credit conditions, given access to a credit market which has not yet been affected by the international credit squeeze. The commercial paper program is a complement to the long term funding and means an active presence on the Swedish capital market.
A good net leasing and a stable economy in 2007 have made Castellum chose a large share of short interest rate maturity. The short interest rate maturity has been favourable despite the increasing trend.
NET FINANCIAL ITEMS
Net fi nancial items were SEKm –495 (–364). The increase of SEKm 131 is partly due to a larger real estate portfolio and partly due to that the average interest rate level during the period has increased 0.5%-units to 4.2% (3.7%), giving higher costs in net fi nancial items of approx. SEKm 50.
FINANCING STRUCTURE
Funding is provided by draw downs of short term debts under long term credit agreements, issuing of bonds or commercial papers. Castellum can increase or decrease outstanding debts under the long-term credit agreements. The amount of interest-bearing liabilities may therefore be minimized from time to time.
After deduction of liquid assets of SEKm 7 (8), net interest bearing liabilities were SEKm 12,575 (10,829). Outstanding commercial papers of SEKm 2,949 are fully covered by unutilized long term credit agreements. The average duration of Castellum's long term credit agreements was 5.2 years (5.8). Long term binding credit agreements totalling SEKm 13,950 (11,400), exceed utilized credit agreements totalling SEKm 12,575 (10,829) by SEKm 1,375 (629).
During the year Castellum, has signed new long term credit agreements with Nordic banks totalling SEKm 1,250, issued long-term bonds totalling SEKm 300, increased the commercial paper program with SEKm 1,000, and renegotiated and extended credit agreements totalling SEKm 7,500. In all cases the credit agreements have been signed or renegotiated on more favourable conditions than existing agreements.
INTEREST RATE MATURITY STRUCTURE
The average effective interest rate as of 31 December, 2007 was 4.4% (4.0%), which is 0.2 percentage units higher than the average interest rate level during the year. The higher closing interest rate is an effect of increasing market interest rates. The market interest rate at the same time for an equal portfolio was 5.0%
The average fi xed interest term on the same date was 2.2 years (2.3). The share of loans with interest rate maturity during the next 6 months was 45% (60%).
Castellum's strategy of using interest rate derivatives in order to manage the interest rate risk and achieve the desired interest rate maturity structure means that value of the interest rate derivatives portfolio may vary over time. These changes occur partly due to changes in the market interest rates and partly due to the time factor. As of December 31, 2007 the market value of the interest rate derivatives portfolio amounted to SEKm 44 (–55).

INTEREST RATE MATURITY
In the next year we will see higher rental income relating from both higher rental levels and lower vacancies as effects of investments made. The growth in income will however be limited due to increasing interest cost depending on higher interest rate levels and larger volumes.
LEASE MATURITY STRUCTURE
DISTRIBUTION BY SIZE OF LEASES
Opportunities and Risks
Opportunities and risks may roughly be divided into two sections – changes in the cash fl ow and changes in value.
OPPORTUNITIES AND RISKS IN CASH FLOW Rental Income
Both rental levels as well as vacancies for commercial contracts are mainly depending on the growth in Swedish economy, but are also affected by the level of new construction. Economic growth is considered to lead to increased demand for premises and hence decreasing vacancies, with the potential for increasing market rents as a result. Since the commercial contracts are signed for a certain period of time, a change in the market interest rates does not give an immediate effect on the rental income. The most common term of a new lease is currently 3-5 years with a nine months notice and an index clause linked to the infl ation. The average remaining lease duration in Castellum's portfolio is 3.2 years. Castellum's lease portfolio is presently considered to be in line with or below market rents.
The risk of large changes in the vacancies increases when a real estate company has few large tenants. Castellum has over 4,000 commercial contracts of which the single largest tenant accounts for 1% of the total rental income. Castellum's current lease maturity structure together with the lease portfolio's make up of sizes and sectors, provide a good risk exposure. Vacancies during 2007 amounted to approx. SEKm 337 and make up a potential for possible new leases, assuming a continued successful leasing activity and a stable rental market.
Property Costs
Operating costs are largely made up of costs for electricity, cleaning, heating and water, where electricity and heating costs have the largest effect on income. The price of electricity is controlled by supply and demand on the open market for electricity. Castellum limits the risk by hedging a certain amount of electricity. Most of the costs are passed on to the tenants why Castellum's exposure to changes in the costs is relatively limited. Castellum's properties have a good standard and maintenance situation. The real estate tax is a federal tax based on the properties' tax assessment value and completely dependent on political decisions such as tax rate and tax assessment value, which Castellum cannot control. The real estate tax is also passed on to the tenants.
Interest Costs
Interest costs are the single largest cost item for Castellum and the conditions on the interest rate market can change quickly. The market interest rate is affected by Riksbanken's monetary policy, the expectations of economic development both internationally as well as nationally and of unexpected events such as the recent credit worries. In order to limit this effect the interest rate maturity structure has been spread over different terms. A change in the market interest rate of +/– 1%-unit will affect cash fl ow by SEKm –107/+62 for 2008.
Taxes
Castellum is affected by political decisions such as changes in the corporate tax rate, real estate tax, the fi scal legislation or interpretations of it. Future income tax reforms or interpretations of these may have both positive as well as negative effects on Castellum's fi scal position.
Summary of Opportunities and Risks in the Cash Flow
Increasing market interest rates is generally an effect of economic growth and increasing infl ation, which is thought to give higher rental income. This is in part due to that the demand for premises is thought to increase leading to reduced vacancies and hence the potential for increasing market rents and in part due to that the index clause in the commercial contracts is compensating the increasing infl ation. An economic boom therefore means higher interest costs but also higher rental income, while the opposite relationship is true during a recession. The change in rental income and interest costs does not take place at the exact same time, why the effect on income in the short term may occur at different points in time.
OPPORTUNITIES AND RISKS IN VALUES
The Properties' Value
Castellum reports its properties at fair value with changes in value in the income statement. This means that the result in particular but also the fi nancial position may be volatile. The value of the properties is determined by supply and demand, where the prices are mainly depending on the properties' expected net operating income and the buyer's required yield. An increasing demand gives lower required yields and hence an upward adjustment in prices, while a weaker demand has the opposite effect. In the same way, a positive real development in net operating income gives an upward adjustment in prices, while a negative real growth has the opposite effect.
The real estate market has had a historically large volume of transactions in 2007 even if it is lower than for the record year 2006. Castellum makes the assessment that the required market yields were reduced during the fi rst six months of 2007 and have since remained unchanged. In a situation where the rental market is improving, the prices on real estate can remain even if the required yields should increase somewhat. If the demand for Swedish properties is reduced, for example due to investors seeking markets elsewhere or other types of assets, a downward adjustment in prices cannot be ruled out. The sensitivity analysis on the side shows how Castellum's equity/assets ratio and borrowing ratio are affected by a +/– 10-20% change in value.
In property valuations consideration should be taken to an uncertainty range of +/– 5-10%, in order to refl ect the uncertainty that exist in the assumptions and calculations made.
All of Castellum's properties are insured to their full value.
Interest Bearing Liabilities and Financial Risk
One of Castellum's greatest fi nancial risks is to lack access to funding. However, existing credit agreements are overviewed and renegotiated on an ongoing basis and new agreements are signed when needed in order to secure Castellum's need for funding. Castellum has currently an average duration of long term credit agreements of 5.2 years and unutilized long term credit agreements of SEKm 1,375.
In order to manage the interest rate risk in a cost effective way Castellum uses interest rate derivatives. As the agreed interest rate deviates from the market interest rate from time to time there is a theoretical surplus or sub value on the derivatives, which is reported in the income statement. The lesser risk taken in the interest payments by signing derivative agreements and extending the fi xed interest term, the greater risk taken in the value of the derivatives, since the time factor means greater risk for large changes in value. For further description of Castellum's fi nancial risks and a sensitivity analysis of the interest rate derivatives portfolio, see note 16.

The Castellum Share
SHAREHOLDERS
At the year-end, Castellum had approx. 7,300 shareholders. The proportion of shares registered abroad at the year-end was 49%. Shareholders registered abroad can not be broken down in terms of directly held and nominee registered shares.
PROPOSED DIVIDEND
The Board intends to propose the annual general meeting to decide on a dividend of SEK 3.00 per share, an increase of 5% compared with previous year. The dividend ratio is 74% of income from property management after a 28% tax deduction.
If the annual general meeting decides to accept the Board's dividend proposal, of Tuesday April 1, 2008 as the record day for payment of the dividend, the share will be traded including the dividend up to and including the day for the annual general meeting, Thursday March 27, 2008. Payment of the dividend is expected to take place on Friday April 4, 2008.
The dividend falls within Castellum's objective of distributing at least 60% of income from property management after tax, having taken into account investment plans, consolidation needs, liquidity and financial position in general.
SHARE CAPITAL, NUMBER OF SHARES AND REPURCHASE
The share capital amounts to SEKm 86, distributed among 172,006,708 A-shares with a par value of SEK 0.50 per share. Each share, except the company's own repurchased shares, entitles the holder to one vote and carries an equal right to a share in Castellum's capital. There are no potential shares, such as convertible shares. All share related key ratios in this annual report have been recalculated based on the share split in 2006. Changes in share capital and the number of shares are displayed in note 14.
During 2000, Castellum repurchased 8,006,708 of the company's own shares for a total of SEKm 194, equivalent to 4.7% of the total registered number of shares. Since then no repurchases of the company's own shares have been made. As repurchasing is a good method of adapting the capital structure to the capital requirements from time to time, the Board will propose to the AGM that the mandate to repurchase shares will be extended until the next AGM. This mandate provides the facility to repurchase a maximum of 10% of the number of registered shares in the company, i.e. a further 9.2 million shares in addition to the previously repurchased shares.
The number of outstanding shares, i.e. the number of registered shares less the number of repurchased shares, thus totals 164,000,000.
The Castellum share is listed on OMX Nordic Exchange in Stockholm.
LISTED REAL ESTATE COMPANIES
The total market capitalization of Swedish real estate companies operating solely in this field was approx. SEK 87 billion at the yearend, equivalent to approx. 2% of the total market capitalization of listed Swedish companies totalling approx. SEK 4,000 billion. Castellum's market capitalization, i.e. the value of all outstanding shares in Castellum, amounted to SEK 11.0 billion as at December 31, 2007.
During 2007, a total of 207 million shares were traded, equivalent to an average of 830,000 shares per day, corresponding on an annual basis to a turnover rate of 126%.
SHARE PRICE AND TOTAL YIELD
The Castellum share price at the year-end was SEK 67.25. During 2007 the total yield of the share, including dividend of SEK 2.85, was - 23.2%.
GROWTH, YIELD AND FINANCIAL RISK
Growth, yield and financial risk are shown below for both the present year as well as the three and ten years' average. The average over a number of years is not least important considering the fact that changes in value on properties may vary between different years.

VALUATION - SHARE PRICE RELATED KEY FIGURES
Earnings Capacity
Income from property management before tax for 2007 amounted to SEK 5.63 per share, which compared to the share price at the year-end gives a multiple of 12.
Net income for 2007 amounted to SEK 9.07 per share, which gives a multiple of 7.
Net Asset Value
When assets and liabilities are valued at fair value the net asset value can be calculated using shareholders' equity in the balance sheet. However, consideration should be taken to that the effective tax is lower than the reported 28% nominal tax rate, in part due to the possibility to sell properties in a tax effi cient way, and in part due to the time factor for which the tax should be discounted. The present assessment is that the discounted real deferred tax liability amounts to approx. 5%, which means a net asset value of SEKm 13,933 corresponding to SEK 85 per share. The share price at the year-end was thus 79% of the net asset value. An uncertainty range of +/- 5% in property valuations has an affect on net asset value of +/- SEKm 1,317, corresponding to SEK 8 per share.
The yield on net asset value for the year, including changes in value and considering a 5% deferred tax, can be calculated to 16.4%.
Dividend Yield
The proposed dividend of SEK 3.00 corresponds to a yield of 4.5% based on the share price at the year-end.

ELECTION COMMITTEE
The Annual General Meeting 2007 decided that an election committee should be appointed for the AGM 2008 in order to fulfi l the tasks set out in the code for corporate governance and to propose a procedure for setting up a new election committee. Further, decision was made that the election committee should be established by the Chairman contacting the three largest shareholders at the end of the third quarter 2007 in order for them to each appoint one member to the election committee who, together with the Chairman of the Board of Directors as convener, should constitute the election committee. It was also decided that the election committee would appoint a chairman amongst its members. The election committee which was formed includes: Lars Öhrstedt representing AFA Försäkring, Åsa Nisell representing Swedbank Robur, Lars-Åke Bokenberger representing AMF Pension and the Chairman of the Board Jan Kvarnström. Lars Öhrstedt is the chairman of the election committee.
The election committee has held two meetings with minutes taken. At the meetings the election committee has discussed all the issues the election committee are obliged to discuss according to the Code for corporate governance. The election committee has among other things judged if the current Board of Directors meet the requirements that will be put on the Board as an effect of Castellum's situation and future operations, e.g. by reviewing the evaluation made of the work of the Board.
The Election Committee has decided to propose re-election of the present Board of Directors. The decision has been made with respect to the fact that three new board members have been elected to Castellum's Board of Directors in the last two years and considering the program for renewal of the Board of Directors that exists.
When assessing the remuneration to the Board of Directors the Election Committee has proposed that the remuneration should increase from SEK 400,000 to SEK 450,000 for the Chairman and from SEK 200,000 to SEK 215,000 for each one of the remaining board members.

The election committee will appoint a chairman amongst its members.
SWEDISH CODE FOR CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Castellum applies the code which purpose is to create good preconditions for practicing the role of an active and responsible ownership. The code is meant to make up one step in the self-regulation of the Swedish business environment. It is based upon the principle comply or explain, meaning that all rules must not always be followed and there is no crime in deviating from one or more particular rules of the code if there are motives and explanations.
Castellum deviates from the paragraph, "making the members of the election committee public", which according to the code shall be made six month prior to the AGM. The AGM 2007 decided, according to previous practice, that an election committee should be established at the end of the third quarter, and that the names of the members of the election committee should be published in the company's third interim report for the year. This meant that the composition of the election committee was published approximately five months prior to the AGM.
Since the Corporate Governance Report, which is made up of the section corporate governance pages 56-65, is an important report Castellum has chosen to include this in the Directors' Report, excluding the section about internal control on pages 62-63. Hence, the Corporate Governance Report, excluding the section about internal control, is included in the regular audit of the annual report.
The following section about internal control is part of the Corporate Governance Report, but is not a part of the Directors' Report. The section has not been reviewed by the auditors.
INTERNAL CONTROL
According to the Swedish Companies Act and Swedish code for corporate governance the Board of Directors is responsible for the internal control. This report has been drawn up in accordance with the Swedish code for corporate governance and is hence limited to internal control regarding the fi nancial reporting.
The internal control in Castellum follows an established framework, Internal Control – Integrated Framework, "COSO", comprising the following fi ve components: control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication and monitoring.
Control Environment
The basis for the internal control regarding the fi nancial reporting is made up of the control environment, which consists of different parts that together form the culture and values Castellum is managed from. The fundamentals for Castellum's internal control is the decentralized smallscale organization with over 500 properties, as well as cost centres, which are managed by six subsidiaries, each with approx. 25-35 employees. The decision making processes, authorizations and responsibilities which have been drawn up and communicated in documents such as the Board of Directors' rules of procedure, rules for decision making, rules for authorization, accounting and reporting manuals, internal policies and manuals are also important for the internal control. Documents in use are updated regularly to changes in legislation, accounting standards or listing requirements etc.
Risk Assessment
In Castellum risk management is built into processes concerned and different methods are used to evaluate and limit risks and to secure that the risks Castellum is exposed to are managed in accordance with set polices and guidelines. In accordance with the rules of procedure, the Board of Directors, also the audit committee, reviews the internal control once a year. Identifi ed risks are assessed and measures are set to reduce these risks. The important risks Castellum has identifi ed in the fi nancial reporting are errors in the accounting and valuation of properties, interest bearing liabilities, taxes and VAT, as well as the risk of fraud, loss or embezzlement of assets.
Control Activities
The risks identifi ed regarding the fi nancial reporting are taken care of by the company's structure for control resulting in a number of control measures. The control measures aim to prevent, discover and correct errors and deviations and comprise analytical reviews on many levels in the organization and comparisons of income statement items, reconciliation of accounts, follow-up and reconciliation of board decisions and policies set by the board, authorization and reporting of business transactions, structure for proxy and authorization, authorized signatory, compliance offi cer function, group-wide defi nitions, templates, tools for reporting as well as accounting and valuation principles.
Castellum's subsidiaries have their own fi nancial functions which take part in the planning and follow-up of their units' fi nancial results. Their regular analysis of their own units' fi nancial reporting are together with the analysis made at group level an important part of the internal control in order to ensure that the fi nancial reporting do not contain any signifi cant errors.
Information and Communication
Castellum has ways for information and communication that aim to ensure an effective and correct distribution of information regarding the fi nancial reporting. This demands that all parts of the operation communicate and share relevant and important information. Policies and guidelines regarding the fi nancial reporting as well as updates and changes are made available and aware to the personnel concerned. The group management as well as the Board of Directors regularly receive fi nancial information about the subsidiaries with comments on fi nancial results and risks. The Board of Directors also receives additional information regarding risk management, internal control and fi nancial reporting from the auditors through the audit committee. In order to ensure that the external distribution of information is correct and complete there are both a policy for communicating with the stock market and an information security policy.
Monitoring
Regular follow-ups take place on many levels in the group, on both property level and subsidiary level as well as group level. The Board of Directors, which also makes up the audit committee, regularly evaluates the information provided by the company management and the auditors. The company's auditors also report in person directly to the audit committee at least twice a year of their observations from the audit and their assessment of the internal control. In addition the audit committee has an annual review of the risk assessments made and the decided measures. The audit committee's and the Board of Directors' monitoring are of particular importance for the development of the internal control and for ensuring that measures are taken for possible shortcomings and suggestions that emerge.
The Need for Internal Audits
Castellum has a small scale organization with approx. 25-35 employees in each company which together manages over 500 cost centres. All property management are run by the subsidiaries while fi nance activities are taken care of by the parent company, meaning that Castellum AB is not a profi t centre. This gives the fi nancial function of the parent company the role of a controlling function for the subsidiaries and a compliance offi cer function for the treasury department. In all this provides for the assessment that there is no need for a special unit for internal audits.
EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT
The executive management includes the Chief Executive Offi cer, the Deputy Chief Executive Offi cer with responsibility for business development, the Financial and Finance Directors of Castellum AB and the six Managing Directors of the subsidiaries. Each member of the executive management has their own area of responsibility and at the meetings taking place mostly issues of overall operations are covered. The executive management has had 9 meetings in 2007.
The Chief Executive Offi cer
The Chief Executive Offi cer is responsible for the company's day-to-day operations and for leading the operations according to the guidelines and directives submitted by the Board of Directors and for providing the Board with information and necessary basis for decision making. The Chief Executive Offi cer is also reporting at Board meetings and shall make sure that members of the Board regularly receive the information needed in order to follow the company's and the group's fi nancial position, results, liquidity, and development.
Guidelines for remuneration for Senior Executives
The AGM 2007 decided on the following guidelines for remuneration for senior executives:
Castellum shall uphold such remuneration levels and terms of employment as required in order to recruit and maintain a good management with competence and capacity to reach set goals. The remuneration and other terms of employment for the management shall thus be adjusted to the market conditions. A fi xed salary will be paid for work performed in a satisfactory manner.
In addition, fl exible remunerations may also be offered, in order to reward clearly goal referenced achievements by simple and transparent constructions. The fl exible remuneration of the management shall generally not exceed the fi xed salary. The fl exible remuneration of the management shall depend upon the extent to which set goals have been fulfi lled. The remuneration of the management under the incentive program will depend upon the extent to which set goals have been fulfi lled, mainly in respect of profi ts from property management, development of the company image, training of staff and customer satisfaction, as well as development of the share price, both in nominal fi gures and compared to real estate index.
The non-monetary benefi ts of the management shall facilitate the work of the members of management and shall correspond to what is considered reasonable under relevant market practice.
The pension terms of the executive management shall be set according to general market practice with regards to corresponding executive management, and shall be based on pension plans with fi xed payments.
Dismissal pay and severance pay of a member of the management shall not exceed 24 monthly salaries in total.
The proposed guidelines for remuneration for senior executives which will be put forward at the AGM on March 27, 2008 are unchanged compared to those put forward at the AGM 2007.
The AGM 2007 also decided on an incentive program for senior executives, which in principle is a renewal of the previous incentive program. The new incentive program covers the years 2008, 2009 and 2010 for the profi t based part and for the share price related part the period June 2008 - May 31 2011.
For further information regarding remuneration for the management see note 10, page 87.

Financial Review
SUMMARY
Rental income amounted to SEKm 2,259 (2,014) with an average economic occupancy rate of 87.9% (87.1%).
During the year 796 new lease contracts were signed with a total annual value of SEKm 315 (287), while contracts terminated amounted to SEKm 180 (167). Hence, net leasing for the year was SEKm 135 (120).
Property costs amounted to SEKm 771 (700), corresponding to SEK 262 per sq.m. (259). The net costs, which in principle have remained unchanged, have been affected partly by lower operating expenses, and partly by higher real estate tax due to increased tax assessment values.
Income from property management i.e. net income for the year excluding changes in value and tax, amounted to SEKm 924 (883), equivalent to SEK 5.63 (5.38) per share. The improvement was 5% and is chiefly an effect of improved net operating income in the property management and investments made but has been limited by higher interest costs.
During the year, changes in value on properties and derivatives amounted to, respectively, SEKm 920 (1,145) and SEKm 99 (178). Changes in value on properties refer to both SEKm 1 in realized results from properties sold during the year and SEKm 919 in unrealized change in value. The increase in value is mainly made up of three parts: approx. SEKm 375 is assigned to lower required market yields of 0.1% seen during the fi rst six months, approx. SEKm 275 is assigned to new constructions, extensions and refurbishment projects started during the last quarter, and approx. SEKm 200 is assigned to improvements in future cash fl ows chiefl y depending on an expected increase in rental levels based on the infl ation.
Castellum's net income for the year 2007 was SEKm 1,487 (1,674).
THE REAL ESTATE PORTFOLIO
As of 31 December, 2007 Castellum's real estate portfolio amounted to a fair value of SEKm 27,717 (24,238). During the year investments totalling SEKm 2,598 (2,283) were made, of which SEKm 1,514 (1,292) were acquisitions and SEKm 1,084 (991) new construction, extensions and refurbishment. Of the total investments, SEKm 864 related to Greater Gothenburg, SEKm 679 to Eastern Götaland, SEKm 401 to Mälardalen, SEKm 374 to the Öresund Region and SEKm 280 to Greater Stockholm. During the year Castellum made two entries in new markets, Linköping and Halmstad.
FINANCING

After deduction of liquid assets of SEKm 7 (8), net interest bearing liabilities were SEKm 12,575 (10,829). Outstanding commercial papers of SEKm 2,949 are fully covered by unutilized long term credit agreements. The average duration of Castellum's long term credit agreements as of 31 December, 2007 was 5.2 years (5.8). Long term binding credit agreements totalling SEKm 13,950 (11,400), exceed utilized credit agreements totalling SEKm12,575(10,829) by SEKm 1,375 (629).

Accounting Principles and Notes
(All fi gures in SEKm unless stated otherwise.)
| Note 1 | Accounting Principles |
|---|---|
| General information |
The consolidated fi nancial reports of Castellum AB (The Parent Company) for the fi nancial year ending December 31, 2007 has been approved by the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Offi cer for publication on February 6, 2008 and will be proposed to the Annual General Meeting 2008 for adoption. The parent company is a Swedish limited liability company (publ), with registered offi ce in Gothenburg, Sweden. The operations of the Group are described in the Directors' report. |
| Grounds for the accounting |
Castellum´s accounts have been prepared in accordance with the IFRS standards adopted by the EU and the interpretations of them (IFRIC). Further, the consolidated accounts have been prepared according to Swedish law by application of the Swedish Financial Accounting Standards Council's recommendation RR 30:06 (Complementary accounting principles for consolidated accounts). The accounts have been prepared based on fair value for investment properties and derivatives. For the remaining items acquisition value has been used. |
| Critical assessements |
In order for the accounts to be completed in accordance with the IFRS and generally accepted accounting principles assessments and assumptions must be made that affect the recorded assets, liabilities, income and costs as well as other information in the accounts. These assessments and assumptions are based upon historical experiences and other factors which are considered fair under the current conditions. Real outcome may be different from these assessments if other assumptions are made or other conditions exist. |
| Investment properties In valuation of investment properties the assessments and assumptions can have signifi cant affect on the income and fi nancial position of the Group. The valuation calls for estimation and assumptions of the future cash fl ows and decision about the discounting factor (required yield). To refl ect the uncertainty that exists in the assessments and assumptions, normally an uncertainty range of +/- 5-10% is used in property valuations. Information about this and the assessments and assumptions made are presented in note 11. |
|
| Deferred tax liability According to the accounting principles deferred tax shall be accounted to nominal value without discounting, meaning 28% nominal tax rate. The real tax is considerably lower in part due to the possibility to sell properties in a tax effi cient way, and in part due to the time factor. |
|
| Classifi cation | Fixed assets and long-term liabilities consist of amounts that are expected to be regained or settled more than twelve months from the balance sheet day. Current assets and short-term liabilities consist of amounts that are expected to be regained or settled less in than twelve months from the balance sheet day. |
| The consolidated fi nancial statements |
The Group's balance sheet and income statement includes all companies where the parent company has direct or indirect determining infl uence. All companies in the Group are wholly-owned and there are neither associated companies nor joint ventures. In addition to the parent company, the Group comprises the subsidiaries listed in Note 13 and their respecitve sub-groups. The consolidated fi nancial statements are based upon the accounts for all sub-groups as of December 31. The consolidated fi nancial statements have been prepared according to the acquisition accounting method, meaning that the shareholders' equity of the subsidiaries at the time of acquisition, calculated as the difference between the fair value of the assets and liabilities, are fully eliminated. The shareholders' equity of the Group includes only the part of shareholders' equity of the subsidiaries that has been added after the acquisition. When a property is indirectly acquired through a company, the accounting of deferred tax depends on wether the acquisition is classifi ed as a business combination acquisition or an asset acquisition. Castellum has classifi ed all company acquisitions as business combination acquisitions and thus recorded full tax of 28%. The consolidated income statement includes records of associated companies acquired or sold during the year only for the time of possession. |
| Intra-group sales, income, losses and dealings are eliminated in the consolidated accounts. | |
| Income | Rental income Rental income, which from an accounting perspective is also called income from operating leases, is debited in advance and allocated linear in the income statement, based on the terms in the lease. Rental income includes supplementary charges for the tenant, such as debited real estate tax and heating costs. Rents debited in |
advance are recorded as deferred rental income. In cases where a lease during a certain period of time offers a reduced rent, corresponding to a higher rent at another point in time, this sub/surplus rent is spread out over the period of the lease. Pure discounts, such as reduction for successive moving in, are recorded in the income statement in the period when they are given.
Income from property sales
Income from property sales is entered as of the contract date, unless there exist special conditions in the purchasing agreement. On sale of a property through a company, the transaction is recorded using gross accounting regarding the underlying property price and the calculated deduction for deferred tax. The result from a property sales is accounted for as a realized change in value and refers to the difference between the received sales price after deduction of sales costs, and the recorded value in the latest interim report with addition of capitalized investments after the latest interim report.
Financial income
Financial income consist of interest income and interest subsidies and are recorded as income in the period which they refer to. Also received and anticipated dividends are recorded as a fi nancial income.
Financial costs are interests and other costs that occur when a company is borrowing money. Costs for taking out pledges for mortgages are not considered as fi nancial costs and are capitalized. Financial costs are accounted for in the period which they refer to. Financial costs also consist of cost of entered interest rate forward agreements. Payments under these agreements are accounted for in the period which they refer to. Net fi nancial items have not been affected by market valuation of the entered interest rate swap agreements, instead changes in the market value of interest rate derivatives are recorded as changes in value under a separate headline. The part of the interest costs originating from interest during the construction period for major new construction, extensions or refurbishment projects is capitalized. The interest is calculated based on the average interest rate level for the Group.
Employee benefi ts are accounted for as the employees perform services in exchange for the remuneration. Benefi ts according to incentive plans are accounted for as the objectives are achieved during the period of the incentive plan.
Pensions
Pensions and other post-employment benefi ts are classifi ed as defi ned contribution or defi ned benefi t plans. The majority of the Castellum Group's pension commitments are defi ned contribution plans, which are fulfi lled through regular payments to independent authorities or bodies which administer the plans. Obligations regarding payments to contribution plans are recorded as a cost in the income statement when they occur. A small number of employees within the Castellum Group have defi ned ITP-plans with regular payments to Alecta. These plans are recorded as defi ned contribution plan since Alecta does not provide the information needed in order to report the plan as a defi ned benefi t plan. There are, however, no indications of any signifi cant liabilities besides what have already been paid to Alecta.
The income tax in the income statement is divided into current and deferred tax. The income tax is recorded in the income statement except when related to transactions, such as group contributions, which have been recorded directly in equity when possible tax effects also have been recorded directly in equity. Current and deferred taxes are calculated based on current tax rates.
Open claims in the income tax return that contains a certain degree of uncertainty, is taken into consideration in the tax calculation, in the year after the fi nancial year at the earliest, after the taxation has been assessed by the tax authority.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recorded in Castellum, using the balance sheet method, for all temporary difference between an asset's or a liability's book value and its tax basis value. This means that there is a tax liability or a tax asset that falls due for payment on the date on which the asset or liability is realized. Castellum has three entries in which temporary differences may be found – properties, derivatives and tax loss carry forwards. Deferred tax assets related to tax loss carry forwards are recorded since it is probable that future taxable income will be available, which may be utilized against the tax loss carry forwards. Deferred tax liability relates to the difference between partly the properties and partly the derivatives book value and their tax basis value. On a change in one of the three entries above the deferred tax liability / tax asset is also changed, which is accounted for in the income statement as a deferred tax.
Castellum has recorded completed company acquisitions as business combination acquisitions, which means that a 28% deferred tax on the difference between the real estate portfolio's consolidated book value and its tax basis value, has been considered.
Financial costs
Employee benefi ts
Income taxes
Current tax
Besides the deferred tax also current tax is recorded in the income statement, which is equivalent to the tax that the company must pay on the taxable income for the year, adjusted for possible current tax for previous periods.
Leases where all crucial risks and benefi ts associated with the ownership fall on the lessor, is classifi ed as operational leases. All existing rental leases related to Castellum's investment properties are, from an accounting perspective seen as operational leases. How these leases are accounted for can be read about in the accounting principles for income and in note 3.
There are also a small number of leases of insignifi cant value, where Castellum is the lessee. These leases are also accounted for as operational leases and concerns mainly private cars. Payments made during the period of the leases are recorded as a cost, in the income statement, linear over the leasing period.
Investment properties
Leases
An investment property is a property held for the purpose of generating rental income, capital appreciation or both rather than for the use in a company's operations for production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes and sales in daily operations. All of Castellum's owned or by ground rent used properties, are considered to be investment properties. If the Group starts an investment on an existing investment property for future use as an investment property, the property continues to be recorded as an investment property.
Valuation
Investment properties, which at the time of acquisition are recorded at acquisition cost including expenses directly related to the acquisition and with consideration taken to nominal deferred tax, have been recorded at fair value with changes in value in the income statement. Fair value has been calculated using an internal valuation model described in note 11. The note also describes the assumptions made as basis for the valuation. The valuation model is based on a long-term value determined on an earnings basis by calculating the net present value of future cash fl ows with a differentiated required yield for each property depending on such factors as location, intended use, condition and standard. In order to provide further assurance of the valuation part of the portfolio has been valued externally. If there are indications of changes in value during the year, revaluation is made in the interim reports.
Unrealized changes in value
Unrealized changes in value are recorded in the income statement. Changes in value are calculated based on the valuation at the end of the fi nancial year compared to the valuation previous year, or the acquisition value if the property has been acquired during the year, with addition of capitalized subsequent expenditures during the period. For properties sold during the year, unrealized changes in value are recorded and calculated based on the valuation at the latest interim report prior to the sale compared to the valuation at the end of previous year, with addition of capitalized subsequent expenditures during the period.
Subsequent expenditures
Subsequent expenditures that increase the valuation of the property and can be calculated in a reliable way are capitalized. Costs for repairs and maintenance are accounted for in the income statement in the period they occur. In the case of major new construction and refurbishment, interest costs during the construction period are capitalized.
Acquisitions och sales
On acquisition or sale of properties or companies, the transaction is entered as of the date of the contract unless there exist special conditions in the purchasing contract.
Tangible fi xed assets
Tangible fi xed assets are made up of equipments, which have been recorded at acquisition value with deduction of accumulated depreciation according to plan and any write-downs made. The acquisition value includes the purchase price and costs directly related to the asset in order to bring it to its place and state to use according to the purpose of the acquisition. Depreciation on equipments is based on historical acquisition values after possible deduction of subsequent write-downs. The residual value is assessed to be non-existent. Depreciation of assets acquired during the year is calculated with reference to the date of acquisition. Depreciation is linear, which means equal depreciation during the period of use, which is normally fi ve years, except for computers which are expected to have a three year period of use.
Financial instruments Financial instruments which are recorded in the balance sheet includes assets such as cash and bank, lease receivables, other receivables, long-term receivables and derivatives, and liabilities such as accounts payable, other liabilities and loans. Financial instruments are initially recorded at acquisition value equivalent to fair value, with addition of transaction costs, except for the category fi nancial instruments which are recorded at fair value through income statement, without transaction costs. Following the initial recognition the accounting is based on the classifi cation made according to the following. Financial transactions such as cash received or paid on interests and loans are recorded on the settlement day of the bank holding the account, while other payments are recorded on the accounting date of the bank holding the account.
Cash and bank
Cash and bank consist of the bank balance at the end of the accounting period and are recorded at nominal value.
Receivables
Financial assets which are not derivatives, that has fi xed or predictable payments and that are not quoted on an active market, are recorded as receivables. In the Group there are rent receivables and other receivables which are mainly payments from property sales that has not yet been received. Receivables from property sales occur because the sale is normally recorded at contract date while the payment is made on the day when the buyer takes possession of the property. Receivables have, after individual valuation, been recorded at the amount at which they are expected to be received, which means that they are recorded at acquisition value with reservation for receivables which are uncertain. Reservation for uncertain receivables is made when an objective risk assessments gives at hand that the Group will not receive the entire receivable. There are no receivables in foreign currency. Receivables in the parent company consist only of receivables from the subsidiaries, which are recorded at acquisition value.
Liabilities
Liabilities refer to loans and operating liabilities such as accounts payable. The majority of Castellum's credit agreements are long term. In cases where short-term loans are drawn under long-term credit agreements, the loans are considered as long-term. The loans are recorded on the settlement date at acquisition value. Deferred unpaid interest is recorded in accrued expenses. There are no liabilities in foreign currency. A liability is recorded when the counterparty has performed services and a legal obligation to pay exist, even if the invoice has not yet been received. Accounts payable are recorded when the invoice is received. A liability is removed from the balance sheet when the obligation is fulfi lled or cleared in an other way. Accounts payable and other operative liabilities with short duration are recorded at nominal value.
Derivatives
Derivatives are fi nancial assets or liabilities which are valued at fair value with changes in value recorded in the income statement. In order to manage the exposure to fl uctuations in the market interest rate according to the fi nancial policy, Castellum has entered into interest rate swap agreements. When using interest rate derivatives changes in value may occur partly due to changes in market interest rates and partly due to the time factor. Derivatives are initially recorded in the balance sheet on the settlement day at acquisition value and are thereafter valued at fair value with changes in value in the income statement. In order to calculate the fair value market interest rates for each fi xed interest term as listed on the balance sheet date and generally accepted methods for calculations are used. Interest rate swaps are valued by calculating the net present value by discounting future cash fl ows, instruments containing some sort of option are valued at the current repurchase price which may be received from respective counterparty. Realized changes in value refer to redeemed derivatives and is the difference between the price at the time of redemption and the recorded book value according to the latest interim report. Unrealized changes in value refer to the changes in value during the fi nancial year for the derivatives that Castellum held at the end of the fi nancial year. Changes in value are calculated based on the valuation at the end of the fi nancial year compared to the valuation previous year, or the acquisition value if the derivative agreements have been entered into during the year. For derivatives that have been redeemed an unrealized change in value is recorded and calculated based on the valuation at the latest interim report prior to the redemption, compared with the valuation at the end of previous year. Payments made under these agreements are accounted for in the period which they refer to.
Repurchased shares
Repurchased shares reduce the shareholders' equity with the paid purchase price including any transaction costs.
Dividend
Dividend is accounted for as a deduction of shareholders' equity, after the annual general meeting's decision.
Earnings after tax, per share
Calculation of earnings after tax per share is based on the Groups net income for the year attributable to the shareholders of the parent company, and on the weighted average number of outstanding shares during the year.
The Group's operations are organized, managed and reported primarily by geographical region and secondly by type of property. Segments are consolidated according to the same principles as the Group.
Income and costs reported for each segment are actual costs. No distribution of joint costs has been made between the regions. This is also true for assets and liabilities reported in the note segment reporting below.

Defi nition of segments
Cash fl ow statement
Differences in accounting principles between the Group and the parent company
The cash fl ow statement has been prepared according to the indirect method, whereby net profi t or loss is adjusted for the effects of transactions of a non-cash fl ow nature during the period as well as income or costs associated with the cash fl ow from investment or fi nancing activities.
The annual report of the parent company has been prepared according to Annual Accounts Act and by applying of the Swedish Financial Accounting Standards Council's recommendation RR 32:06 (Accounting for legal entities). RR32 states that a legal entity shall apply the same IFRS/IAS that is applied in the consolidated fi nancial statements, with exceptions for and additions of rules and laws mainly according to the Annual Accounts Act, and with consideration to the relation between accounting and taxation. The differences in accounting principles between the Group and the parent company are mentioned below.
Shares in subsidiaries
Shareholdings in subsidiaries are accounted for in the parent company according to the method of acquisition value. The book value is regularly compared to subsidiaries' group equity. When the book value is lower than the subsidiaries' group value, a write-down is made in the income statement. In the case when a previous write-down no longer can be justifi ed, it will be reversed.
Group contribution and shareholders' contribution
Group contributions and shareholders' contribution are accounted for according to a statement from the Swedish Accounting Standards Council emerging issues task force. Group contributions are recorded according to its fi nancial consequence. Group contributions submitted and received where the purpose is to minimize the total tax of the Group, and any tax effects there of, are recorded directly in the balance sheet as a deduction or an increase of non-restricted equity. Group contributions received which are considered equal to dividend are recorded as a fi nancial income in the income statement of the recipient and as a deduction of non-restricted equity by the contributor. Shareholders' contributions are recorded as an increase of shares in subsidiaries by the contributor and as an increase of non-restricted equity by the recipient.
New IFRS and interpretations New standards and interpretations, which have been adopted by the EU and will come into effect from the fi nancial year 2009 and later, have not been applied in these fi nancial reports.
IFRS 8 Operating segments
The standard will come into effect as of 1 January 2009 and applies to a fi nancial year starting on the same date. The standard covers the segmentation of the companies' operations. According to the standard the company shall have the internal reporting structure as a starting point in deciding reporable segments. Castellum's preliminary assessment is that this will have no major impact on the Group's segment reporting.
IFRIC 11 IFRS 2 Group and Treasury Share Transactions
The interpretation statement will come into effect as of 1 March 2007 and applies to fi nancial year starting after that date. The interpretation explains the reporting regarding classifi cation of share based remunerations where the company repurchases shares in order to regulate its committments and the accounting of option based remuneration in subsidiaries applying IFRS. The Group will apply IFRIC 11 as of 1 January 2008 but this is expected to have no effect on the Group's accounts.

Rental Income Note 3
Rental value
Group rental income was SEKm 2,259 (2,014). The improvement is chiefl y an effect of investments made, but also higher rental levels and lower vacancies. Rental income consists of the rental value with deduction of the value of vacant premises during the year.
Rental value refers to the rental income received and the estimated market rent of unlet premises. The rental value also includes supplementary charges for the customer, such as heating, real estate tax and an index supplement.
Rental value SEK/sq.m. for the different regions and types of properties are shown in the table below. Rental levels have increased by 3% (2%) compared with previous year.

Renegotiation
Commercial leases, for which rents are paid quarterly in advance, are signed for a certain period of time, which means that a change in the market rents do not have an immediate effect on rental income. Rental income can only be changed when the lease in question is due for renegotiation.
Commercial leases include a so-called index clause, which provides for an upward adjustment of the rent, corresponding to a certain percentage of the infl ation during the previous year or a minimum upward adjustment.
The lease maturity structure for Castellum's portfolio is shown in the table below, where lease value refers to annual value. An explanation of the relatively small portion in 2008 is that a majority of the leases maturing in 2008 were already renegotiated in 2007 due to the period of notice. The most common terms for a new lease is currently 3-5 years with a nine months notice. The average remaining lease duration in the portfolio is 3.2 years (3.0).

Economic occupancy rate Castellum's average economic occupancy rate during 2007 was 87.9% (87.1%). The economic occupancy rate for warehouse and industrial properties amounted to 86.5% (86.0%) and for offi ce and retail properties 88.6% (87.6%). The total annual rental value for vacant premises during the year amounts to approx. SEKm 337.
New leases signed during the year amounted to an annual value of SEKm 315 (287), while contracts terminated and bankruptcies amounted to SEKm 180 (167). Hence, net leasing for the year was SEKm 135 (120).

Castellum's lease portfolio has a good risk exposure. The Group has 4,128 commercial leases and 354 residential leases and their distribution in terms of size can be seen in the table below. The single largest lease as well as the single largest customer accounts for only approx. 1% of the Group's total rental income.

| Note 4 | Property Costs | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Property costs in 2007 was SEKm 771 (700), equivalent to SEK 262/sq.m. (259). This amount includes both direct property costs such as costs of operation, maintenance, ground rent and real estate tax, and indirect costs such as leasing and property management. |
||||||||||
| Operating expenses | Operating expenses include electricity, heating, water, facilities management, cleaning, insurance, rent losses and property-specifi c marketing costs. Most of the operating expenses are passed on to the customers as supplements to the rent. For warehouse and industrial properties, however, customers are in most cases directly responsible for most of the operating costs. Operating expenses in 2007 were SEKm 414 (393), equivalent to SEK 138/sq.m. (145). Operating expenses, which are considered to be at a normal level for the business, are dependent on the weather, which means that they vary between both different years and seasons of the year. Operating expenses includes rent losses of SEKm 9 (4). |
|||||||||
| Maintenance | Maintenance costs consist of ongoing measures to maintain the property's standard and technical systems. For 2007 maintenance costs were SEKm 96 (100), equivalent to SEK 34/sq.m. (37). |
|||||||||
| Ground Rent | Ground rent for the year 2007 was SEKm 20 (18), and mainly related to Greater Stockholm. Ground rent is the charge paid annually to the municipality by the owner of a building on land owned by the municipality. The ground rent contracts are spread over a period of time and are in most cases renegotiated at intervals of 10 to 20 years. At the end of year 2007 Castellum had around 50 properties with ground rent. Existing ground rent contracts mature relatively evenly over the next 15-year period. |
|||||||||
| Real estate tax | Group real estate tax was SEKm 110 (74), equivalent to SEK 38/sq.m. (28). The increase is chiefl y related to higher tax assessment values during 2007 of 37% on average. Real estate tax is a state tax based on the property's tax assessment value. The greater part of the real estate tax is passed on to the customer. The tax rate for 2007 was 1.0% of the tax assessment value for offi ce/retail properties and 0.5% for warehouse/industrial. |
|||||||||
| Leasing and property management |
The Group's leasing and property management costs for 2007 were SEKm 131 (115), equivalent to SEK 45/ sq.m. (42). Leasing and property management refers to the indirect costs of ongoing property management, comprising the costs of leasing operations, rent negotiation, lease administration, rent debiting, collecting rent and accounting as well as project administration costs and depreciation on equipment in subsidiaries. Of the costs SEKm 69 (63) refers to employee benefi ts and SEKm 5 (4) depreciation on equipment. |

Central Administrative Expenses
Central administrative expenses include the costs of portfolio management, company administration and the costs of maintaining the Stock Exchange listing. This involves all of the costs of Castellum AB, comprising group management, treasury department, IT, personnel, investor relations, annual report, audit, and depreciation on equipment etc. At the subsidiary level, the fi gures include, costs for the MD and fi nancial manager as well as costs of preparing the annual report, audit etc. Of the costs, excl. the incentive plan described below, SEKm 34 (33) refers to employee benefi ts and SEKm 1 (1) is depreciation on equipment.

Net fi nancial items were SEKm -495 (-364). During the year, interest costs of SEKm 13 (11) were capitalized in connection with investments in the real estate portfolio. The increase in net fi nancial items of SEKm 131 is partly due to a larger real estate portfolio and partly due to that the average interest rate level during the period has increased 0.5%-units to 4.2% (3.7%), giving higher costs in net fi nancial items of approx. SEKm 50. When capitalizing interest costs the average rental level has been used. For further information about the fi nancial risk management and policy, see note 16, Long-term interest-bearing liabilities.
Changes In Value
During the year 4 properties (12) were sold for a total of SEKm 39 (460), which gave SEKm 1 (83) in realized results.
On the real estate market the volume of transactions has been historically high during 2007, even if it was lower than for the record year 2006. Castellum makes the assessment that the estimated market yields fell during the fi rst six months of 2007 and have thereafter remained unchanged.
Based on annual business plans an internal valuation of all properties using a 10 year cash fl ow-based model with an individual assessment for each property of both its future earnings capacity and the required yield is carried out at the year-end. The valuations show a fair value of SEKm 27,717 giving an unrealized increase in value of SEKm 919. The unrealized increase in value mainly consists of the following parts:
- Approx. SEKm 375 is assigned to lower required market yields seen during the fi rst six months. • Approx. SEKm 275 is assigned to new constructions, extensions and refurbishment projects started during the last quarter.
- Approx. SEKm 200 is assigned to improvements in future cash fl ows chiefl y depending on an expected increase in rental levels based on the infl ation.
Castellum uses fi nancial instruments such as interest rate swaps in order to achieve the desired interest rate maturity structure. If the agreed interest rate deviates from the market interest rate there is a theoretical surplus or subvalue on the fi nancial instruments, where the changes in value are reported in the income statement.
The value has, due to increased market interest rates during the year, changed by SEKm 99 (178), and the value was SEKm 44 (-55) at the end of the year.
Tax Costs
The income tax in Sweden for limited liability companies is 28%. In the income statement, the income tax is recorded as two entries, current tax and deferred tax. Current tax is based on the taxable income for the year, which is lower than the recorded net income for the year. This is mainly an effect of the possibility to:
- use tax depreciation on buildings of 2-5%, which is not made in the accounts,
- make tax deductions for certain investments in properties, which are capitalized in the accounts,
- utilize existing tax loss carry forwards.
The deferred tax is a provision for the tax which will be paid in the future when the properties are sold, and the depreciation for tax purposes and the capitalized investments deducted for tax purposes are reversed.
Note 8
Investment properties
Derivatives
As shown in the table below, there is in principle no taxable income for 2007, because Castellum uses the above mentioned depreciation for tax purposes, makes tax deductions on some investments and utilizes existing tax loss carry forwards. The current paid tax that occur is because a few subsidiaries are not allowed to make fi scal group contributions.

The total tax may be different from 28% in those cases where there are recorded income / costs which are not taxable / tax deductible or as an effect of other tax adjustments. The total tax cost shown in Castellum's income statement 2007 is less than 28%. This depends on tax deductible write-downs on shares in subsidiaries, revaluation of tax loss carry forwards and deferred tax receivables related to real estate company acquisitions. The effective tax on income from property management, without consideration taken to the use of tax loss carry forwards, can be calculated to 3%. As shown in the table above the remaining tax loss carry forward are calculated to SEKm 539.
For the parent company deferred tax of SEKm 14 (3) has been recorded directly in equity since the underlying transaction has been recorded in that way.

Executives in receipt of a variable remuneration according to the incentive plan, must to acquire Castellum shares for at least half of the amount of the bonus due after tax. The bonus paid does not affect pension contributions. The AGM 2007 decided on a new incentive program, which in principle is a renewal of the

previous incentive program. The new incentive program covers the years 2008, 2009 and 2010 for the profi t based part and for the share price based part the period June 2008 - May 2011.
Pensions
Persons in the Executive management have defi ned contribution pensions with no other obligations for the company than to pay an annual premium during the time of employment. This implies that these persons, after completed employment, have the right to decide on their own, the time-frame during which the defi ned payments and subsequent return will be received as pension. The retirement age for the CEO is 65 years. For other members of the executive management the retirement age is also 65 years.
Serverance payment
If notice of dismissal is given by the company the CEO is entitled to two years salary, with deduction of salary or remuneration received from other employment or activity.
Other members of the executive management are entitled to, if notice of dismissal is given by the company, a maximum of one year salary with deduction of salary or remuneration received from other employment or activity.
Pensions for other employees
Other employees in Castellum have defi ned contribution pensions, with no other obligations for the company than to pay an annual premium during the time of employment. This implies that these persons, after completed employment, have the right to decide on their own, the time-frame during which the defi ned payments and subsequent return will be received as pension. However, there is an exception for about 25 employees within the Castellum Group that have defi ned ITP-plans instead with regular payments to Alecta. Insurance premiums paid to Alecta during the year amounted to SEKm 1 (1). The surplus in Alecta may be distributed to the insurance holder and/or the insured. Alecta's surplus in the collective consolidation level as of December had not been made offi cial at the time of signing of this annual report and can therefore not be reported. Alecta's latest offi cial consolidation level was as of September 2007 164.0% (December 2006: 143.1%). The collective consolidation level is made up of the market value of Alecta's assets as a percentage of the insurance obligations calculated according to Alecta's assumptions for calculating the insurance, which do not comply with IAS 19.
Absence due to illness
Absence due to illness for the year was 2% (2%), of which 1%-unit (0) are long-term sick leave. The absence due to illness for men and women were 1% (1%) and 4% (2%) respectively. The absence due to illness were 1% (1%) for the age group 29 years and younger, 2% (2%) for the age group 30-49 years and 2% (1%) for the age group 50 years or older. Absence due to illness for the parent company was 1% (1%).

During 2007, Castellum made investments totalling SEKm 2,598 (2,283), of which SEKm 1,514 (1,232) were acquisitions and SEKm 1,084 (991) new construction, extensions and refurbishment. Acquisitions during |
acquisitions and SEKm 1,084 (991) new construction, extensions and refurbishment. Acquisitions during the year refer to 38 properties of which most were acquired as company acquisitions. The Group acquisition value of SEKm 1,514 comprises partly a cash fl ow acquisition value of SEKm 1,349 and partly a deferred tax liability of SEKm 165. The single largest company acquisition was less than 1% of Castellum's total assets. If the properties owned by Castellum at the end of the year, would have been owned during the entire year, the net operating income can be calculated to SEKm 1,542.
Castellum has no signifi cant obligations to acquire or sell any investment property. However, Castellum is obligated to complete ongoing investments of a further SEKm 900 in addition to what is accounted for in the balance sheet.

According to accepted theory, the value of an asset consists of the net present value of the future cash fl ows that the asset is expected to generate. This section aims to describe and illustrate Castellum's cash fl owbased model for calculation of the value of the real estate portfolio. The value of the real estate portfolio is calculated in this model as the total present value of net operating income minus remaining investments on ongoing projects, during the next nine years and the present value of the estimated residual value in year ten. The residual value in year ten consists of the total present value of net operating income during the remaining economic life span. The estimated market value of undeveloped land is added to this.
The required yield and the assumption regarding future real growth are of crucial importance for the calculated value of the real estate portfolio, as they are the most important value-driving factors in the valuation model. The required yield is the weighted cost of borrowed capital and equity. The cost of borrowed capital is based on the market interest rate for loans. The cost of equity is based on a "risk-free interest rate" equivalent to the long-term government bond rate with the addition of a "risk premium". The risk premium is unique to each investment and depends on the investor's perception of future risk and potential.
To illustrate the model, the following example is provided. It should be noted that assumptions regarding cash fl ow growth and other assumptions included in the model are only intended to illustrate the model. The example should thus not be regarded as a forecast of the company's expected earnings.
Assumptions in the example:
- The economic occupancy rate is assumed to increase in order to reach a long-term level of 95% in the year 2012.
- Net operating income for 2007 is based on the result for the investment properties, with an assumed cost of SEK 30/sq.m. for pure property administration.
- Growth in rental value and property costs has been assumed to 1% per year during the calculation period.
- The average economic life of the real estate portfolio has been assumed to be 50 years.
- Projects and undeveloped land have an assumed value SEKm 1 111.
- The required yield is calculated according to the following assumptions:
| Required yield | Percentage of capital | Weighted required yield | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Equity | 7.0% - 20.5% | 30% | 2.1% - 6.1% |
| Borrowed capital | 5.5% | 70% | 3.9% |
| Weighted required yield | 100% | 6.0% - 10.0% |

Valuation model
Signifi cant obligations
Internal valuation
Castellum records the investment properties at fair value and has made an internal valuation of all properties as of December 31, 2007. The valuation was carried out in a uniform manner, and was based on a ten-year cash fl ow model, which was described in principle above. The internal valuation was based on an individual assessment for each property of both its future earnings capacity and its required yield. In assessing a property's future earnings capacity we took into account an assumed level of infl ation of 1.5% and potential changes in rental levels from each contract's rent and expiry date compared with the estimated current market rent, as well as changes in occupancy rate and property costs. Included in property costs are operating expenses, maintenance, ground rent, real estate tax, and leasing and property administration. Possible premiums paid on portfolios have not been taken into account.
Assumptions of the required yield etc.
The required yield on equity is different for each property, and is based on assumptions regarding real interest rate, infl ation and risk premium. The risk premium is different for each property and can be divided into two parts - general risk and individual risk. The general risk makes up for the fact that a real estate investment is not as liquid as a bond, and that the asset is affected by the general economic situation. The general risk was assumed to be 2.75%. The individual risk is specifi c to each property, and comprises a weighted assessment of; the property's category, the town/city in which the property is located, the property's location within the town/city with reference to the property's category, if the property has the right design, is appropriate and makes effi cient use of space, the property's technical standard with regard to such criteria as the choice of materials, the quality of public installations, furnishing and equipment on the premises and apartments and the nature of the lease agreements, with regard to such issues as the length, size and number of agreements.
In order to calculate the required yield on total capital, an assumption has been made about the cost of borrowed capital of 5.5%. The required yield of borrowed capital comprises the real interest rate and infl ation. The equity/assets ratio is assumed to be 35%-45%, depending on the property category.
The required yield on total capital is calculated by weighting the required yield on equity and the cost of borrowed capital depending on the equity/assets ratio. The required yield on total capital is used to discount the expected 10-year future cash fl ows, while the residual value is discounted by calculating the return on total capital minus growth which is set equal to the infl ation.
The assumptions that form the basis for Castellum's valuation are shown in the table below.
| Assumptions per property category 31-12- 2007 | Offi ce/Retail | Warehouse/Industrial |
|---|---|---|
| Real interest rate | 3.0% | 3.0% |
| Infl ation | 1.5% | 1.5% |
| Risk | 4.6% -12.0% | 6.5% - 13.3% |
| Return on equity | 9.1% - 16.5% | 11.0% - 17.8% |
| Interest rate | 5.5% | 5.5% |
| Equity/assets ratio | 35% | 45% |
| Return on total capital | 6.8% - 9.4% | 8.0% - 11.0% |
| Required yield minus growth equal to infl ation | 5.3% - 7.9% | 6.5% - 9.5% |
Compared to previous year the required yield has been reduced by 0.1%-units during the fi rst six months of 2007.
The average required yield in the valuation can, based on the earning capacity at the start of 2008, be calculated to 6.8% (6.9%). The calculation has been made based on the net operating income adjusted for a normalized occupancy rate of 95%, known index increases for 2008 and some adjustments of property costs such as degree day adjustments and an assumed cost for property administration of SEK/sq.m. 30.
Development projects and building permissions
Projects in progress have been valued using the same principle, but with deductions for remaining investment. Sites with building permission and undeveloped land have been valued on the basis of an estimated market value per square metre.
The value of the real estate portfolio and calculated net asset value
The internal valuation shows a fair value of SEKm 27,717 (24,238), which is an increase in value of approx. 3% (5%). The table below shows the fair value distributed by property category and region.
| Property value, SEKm | Warehouse/ | Projects | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 31-12-2007 | Offi ce/Retail | Industrial | and land | Total |
| Greater Gothenburg | 5 127 | 3 994 | 172 | 9 293 |
| Öresund Region | 4 854 | 1 752 | 300 | 6 906 |

| Total | 18 181 | 8 425 | 1 111 | 27 717 |
In order to provide further assurance and validation of the valuation 111 properties, representing 50% of the value of the portfolio, were valued by NAI Svefa. The properties were selected on the basis of the largest properties in terms of value, but also in order to refl ect the composition of the portfolio as a whole in terms of category and geographical location of the properties. NAI Svefa's valuation of the selected properties amounted to SEKm 13,976, within an uncertainty range of +/– 5-10% on property level. The size of the uncertainty range varies depending on each property's category and location. Castellum's valuation of the same properties amounted to SEKm 13,909. It can be noted that, on portfolio level, the external and the internal valuations correspond well, although there are individual differences.
Uncertainty range
A property's market value can only be confi rmed when it is sold. Property valuations are calculations performed according to accepted principles and on the basis of certain assumptions. The value range of +/– 5-10% often used in property valuations should be seen as an indication of the uncertainty that exists in such assessments and calculations. For Castellum, an uncertainty range of +/– 5%, means a range in value of SEKm 26,331 – 29,103.

Shareholders' Equity and Net Asset Value Note 14
Share capital
The share capital as of 31 December, 2007 consisted of 172,006,708 registered A-shares with one vote per share and a par value of 0.50 per share. All shares are fully paid. Of the registered shares, Castellum owns 8,006,708, to a total nominal value of SEK 4,003,354. The number of outstanding shares thus totals 164,000,000, which is the same amount as for the corresponding period previous year. The repurchased shares do not carry any voting rights and are not entitled to dividend. There are no restrictions regarding dividend or other types of repayment. There is no potential common stock such as convertible shares, or preferential rights to accumulated dividend (preference shares).

According to the Swedish Companies Act shareholders' equity is made up of restricted (non-distributable) and non-restricted (distributable) equity. Dividend to the shareholders may only be such that there after the distribution is full coverage for restricted equity in the parent company. Further, distribution of profi ts may only be made if it is justifi ed with respect to the demands put on the amount of equity by the type of business, extent and risk of operations, company and Group consolidation needs, liquidity and fi nancial position in general.
During the year 2000, Castellum repurchased 8,006,704 of the company's own shares for a total of SEKm 194, equivalent to 4.7% of the total registered number of shares. Since then no repurchase of the company's own shares have been made.
Dividends are proposed by the Board of Directors according to the rules of the Companies Act and decided by the annual general meeting. The proposed dividend, not yet paid out, for the fi nancial year 2007 is SEK 3.00 per share, SEKm 492 in total. The amount is recorded as debt after the annual general meeting has approved the dividend.

When calculating the net asset value for a real estate company and for Castellum in specifi c, there are in addition to what can be read in the balance sheet, mainly two items to take into consideration – uncertainty range in property valuation and deferred tax liability.
The value range of +/– 5-10% often used in property valuations should be viewed as an indication of the uncertainty that exists in assessments and calculations made. For Castellum this is equivalent to a range of SEK +/- 1.4 – 2.8 billion.
Present accounting principles states that the deferred tax liability shall be recorded to nominal 28%, while the real deferred tax is substantially lower. The present assessment is that the discounted real deferred tax liability does not exceed 5%, which means that an additional SEK 2.7 billion should be recorded in equity.
| Net asset value | SEKm | SEK/share |
|---|---|---|
| Equity according to the balance sheet | 11 204 | 68 |
| Deferred tax liability according to the balanse sheet | 3 322 | 21 |
| Adjustment for assessed market value of deferred tax (5%) | – 593 | – 4 |
| Net asset value without the uncertainty range in property valutation | 13 933 | 85 |
| Uncertainty range in property valuations +/– 5% after tax | +/– 1 317 | +/– 8 |
Castellum's objective is based on growth in cash fl ow and is not directly related to net asset value. The objective is an annual growth in cash fl ow, i.e. income from property management per share, of at least 10%. In order to achieve this objective, investments of at least SEKm 1,000 per year will be made. All investments will contribute to the objective of growth in income from property management within 1-2 years and have a potential asset value growth of at least 10%. Sales of properties will take place when justifi ed from a business standpoint and when an alternative investment with a higher yield can be found. Castellum will have a stable capital structure, meaning a borrowing ratio not permanently exceeding 55% and an interest coverage ratio of at least 200%.

During 2008, current interest-bearing liabilities amounting to SEKm 6,082 (6,487) are due for payment, but since they are covered by unutilized long-term credit agreements, they are treated as long-term interestbearing liabilities. The fair value of the liabilities are equal to the book value.
Long-term Interest-bearing Liabilities
Castellum's funding and management of fi nancial risks are run according to the fi nancial policy as defi ned by the Board of Directors. The fi nancial operations are centralized to the parent company. The treasury department in the parent company operates as the Group's internal bank with responsibility for group funding, management of fi nancial risks and cash management.
The objectives in the fi nancial policy are:
- Stable capital structure, meaning av borrowing ratio not permanently exceeding 55% and an interest coverage ratio of at least 200%.
- Secure the need for long-term funding and liquidity.
- Achieve a low and stable net interest income/costs within the given risk mandate.
The fi nancial policy states the given mandates and limits for management of the fi nancial risks defi ned in the policy and overall assignments of responsibility. The parent company holds a function for independent control of risks and regulations of the fi nancial operations. As a measure of continuous improvement and adjustments of the fi nancial risk management the Board of Directors makes an annual overview of the fi nancial policy.
The fi nancial operations in Castellum shall be run in such manner that the costs for the fi nancial risk management are minimized. This means that Castellum carries out fi nancial transactions based on estimations of the Group's overall need for liquidity, funding and interest rate risk. Hence, the fi nancial risk management is carried out on portfolio level. The internal bank works with netting bank accounts for the Group's liquidity fl ows. Portfolio management of lending means that a transaction within the Group, such as an internal loan, is not replicated by an identical external transaction, instead draw downs on loans are made under credit agreements based on the Group's overall funding needs. For a cost effective management of the interest rate risk an assessment is made of the interest rate risk that occurs on making a draw down on a single loan with

Long term credit agreements totalling SEKm 13,950 (11,400), exceed utilized credit agreements totalling SEKm 12,575 (10,829) by SEKm 1,375 (629). The debt maturity structure for the credit agreements, as may be seen in the table below, shows when in time the credit agreements fall due for renegotiation or repayment.

The treasury department arranges loans under Castellum's credit agreements, issues bonds or commercial papers in order to provide funding for the subsidiaries owning the properties. The credit agreements provide Castellum the right to choose both short-term and long-term fi xed interest rates and sometimes even the right to choose interest rate base, i.e. each credit institute's offered variable interest rate, Stibor interest rate or fi xed interest rate.
The agreements can be divided into the following categories:
- Loans pledged by Castellum's receivables from subsidiaries, including pledged mortgages. In addition to the pledged mortgages the majority of the credit agreements include fi nancial covenants such as borrowing ratio and interest coverage ratio.
- Unsecured loans.
- Issuing of bonds.
- Issuing of commercial papers.
The conditions for funding in all credit agreements are in line with Castellum's fi nancial objectives. Irrespective of the type of credit agreement they include the usual conditions for cancellation and sometimes also conditions for renegotiation if there is a material adverse change in business or if an unacceptable single party engagement for the lender occurs. If the lender calls on the right for renegotiation and the parties cannot agree, the agreements contain specifi ed terms for the time of termination for those agreements covered by such conditions.
Castellum can increase or decrease the allocation under the long-term credit agreements with short notice. The objective is to minimize the interest-bearing liabilities, and cash is therefore used primarily to repay outstanding debts.
In order to secure Castellum's need for liquidity and long-term funding, Castellum is re-negotiating and adding new credit agreements on an ongoing basis. During the year Castellum has signed a net of new long term credit agreements with Nordic banks totalling SEKm 1,250, issued long term bonds totalling SEKm 300, increased the commercial paper program with SEKm 1,000, and renegotiated and extended credit agreements totalling SEKm 7,500. In all cases the credit agreements have been signed or renegotiated on more favourable conditions than existing agreements. Castellum's access to long term funding has not been affected by the recent international credit squeeze.
The average effective interest rate as of 31 December, 2007 was 4.4% (4.0), which are 0.2%-units higher than the average interest rate during the year. The higher closing interest rate is an effect of increasing market interest rates. The market interest rate for an equal portfolio was at the same date 5.0%. The average fi xed interest term on the same date was 2.2 years (2.3). The share of loans with interest rate maturity during the next 6 months was 45% (60%).
| Interest rate maturity structure | Amount, SEKm | Average interest rate |
|---|---|---|
| 0-1 year | 6 075 | 4.6% |
| 1-2 years | 1 750 | 4.1% |
| 2-3 years | 1 350 | 4.0% |
| 3-4 years | 50 | 4.2% |
| 4-5 years | 1 700 | 4.3% |
| 5-10 years | 1 650 | 4.5% |
| Total | 12 575 | 4.4% |
Castellum's strategy of using interest rate derivatives in order to manage the interest rate risk and achieve the desired interest rate maturity structure means that there may be changes in value of the interest rate derivatives portfolio from time to time. These changes occur partly due to changes in market interest rates and partly due to the time factor (an originally 5-year fi xed interest term with 2 years left to maturity is compared with a 2-year fi xed interest term). As of December 31, 2007 the market value of the interest rate derivatives portfolio amounted to SEKm 44. An upward parallel adjustment of the discounting interest rate used in the valuation of the interest rate derivatives portfolio as of December 31, 2007 of 1%-unit would affect the value of the interest rate derivatives portfolio by SEKm 104.
The table below shows the interest rate derivatives portfolio's nominal amount including accrued interest and market value as of 31-12-2007 and the market value of the portfolio with a +/- 1%-unit change in the interest rate. Derivatives which include an option has based on the date of termination been reported in the same time segment as prior to the assumed change in interest rate.

Deferred Tax Liability / Asset Note 17
A realization of all assets and liabilities to book value for the Group and utilization of all existing tax loss carry forward would, as is shown in the table below, result in a taxable income of SEKm 11,864 (9,724), equivalent to a tax payment of SEKm 3,322 (2,723).
As far as the parent company is concerned the deferred tax asset of SEKm 3 (2) consists of 28% of the net of unutilized tax loss carry forwards of SEKm 36 (7) and the difference between the derivatives book value and their tax basis value of SEKm –44 (0). Out of the change in deferred tax assets during the year, SEKm 14 (3) has been recorded directly in equity.
Tax loss carry forwards
Castellum's tax loss carry forwards were estimated on December 31 2007 at SEKm 539 (337). The change may be seen in the table in note 9.
Surplus- and sub value of properties for tax purposes
When calculating the tax effect on a sale of all properties in the Group, the book value in the Group of SEKm 27,717 (24,238) must be compared to the residual value for tax purposes in the legal entity, which amounts to SEKm 15,358 (14,177). This means that if all of Castellum's properties were sold, the taxable net profi t would exceed the recorded profi t in the Group by SEKm 12,539 (10,061). The accounts are based on the assumption that each property is sold by each legal entity with a maximum effective tax rate.
Previous write-downs where tax deductions have been assessed amount to more than SEKm 200. These may be reversed in the case of continued future increases in value.

Subsequent Events
The Board of Directors of Castellum AB intends to propose the annual general meeting a dividend of SEK 3.00 per share, which is an increase of 5% compared to previous year.
The Financial Reports are a part of the Annual Report and were signed by the Board of Directors on February 6, 2008.
The Income Statement and the Balance Sheet for the Parent Company and the Group shall be adopted at Castellum AB's Annual General Meeting, which is expected to take place on March 27, 2008.
Proposed Distribution of Profits
The following funds are at the Annual General Meetings disposal: Retained profits SEK 3 663 922 974
| Net income for the year | SEK 598 303 085 |
|---|---|
| SEK 4 262 226 059 | |
The Board of Directors propose that the retained profits be appropriated as follows: Dividend to shareholders, SEK 3.00 per share SEK 492 000 000 Carried forward to the new accounts SEK 3 770 226 059 SEK 4 262 226 059
The company has 172,006,708 registered shares, of which 8,006,708 are currently the company's own repurchased shares and are not entitled to dividends.
The total dividend payment proposed above of SEK 492,000,000 can be changed if the number of the companys own repurchased shares changes before the record date for the dividend.
Statement Regarding Proposed Distribution of Profit
Reasons
The Group's equity has been calculated in accordance with IFRS standards, approved by the EU, and the interpretations of these standards (IFRIC), as well as in accordance with the provisions of Swedish law by application of the recommendation RR 30:06 of the Swedish Financial Accounting Standards Council (Supplementary accounting principles for groups). The equity of the parent company has been calculated in accordance with Swedish law and by application of the recommendation RR 32:06 of the Swedish Financial Accounting Standards Council (Accounting for Legal Persons).
It is further noted that the proposed distribution constitutes 74 % of the Group's income from property management after tax, which is in line with the express target to distribute at least 60 % of the Group's income from property management after tax, having considered investment plans, consolidation needs, liquidity and overall position.
The Board of Directors concludes that the Company's restricted equity is fully covered after the proposed distribution.
The Board of Directors also concludes that the proposed distribution to the shareholders is justifi ed considering the parameters in section 17 subsection 3, second and third paragraphs of the Swedish Companies Act (the nature, scope and risks of the business as well as consolidation needs, liquidity and overall position). The Board of Directors would in this context like to emphasise the following.
The nature, scope and risks of the business
The Board of Directors estimates that the equity of the Company as well as the Group will, after the proposed distribution, be suffi cient in relation to the nature, scope and risks of the business. The Board of Directors has in this context considered inter alia the historical development of the Company and the Group, budgeted development, investment plans and the economic situation.
Consolidation needs, liquidity and overall position
Consolidation needs
The Board of Directors has made a general estimation of the fi nancial position of the Company and the Group, and the possibilities of fulfi lling their obligations in the long run. The proposed dividend constitutes 11.3 % of the Company's equity and 4.4 % of the Group's equity. The express target for the Group's capital structure, entailing a solvency of 55 % and an interest coverage ratio of at least 200 %, will be maintained after the proposed dividend. The solvency of the Company and the Group is good considering the prevailing conditions of the real estate business. In light of the above, the Board of Directors concludes that the Company and the Group have all the necessary requirements to take future business risks and to also carry potential losses. Planned investments have been considered when deciding on the proposed dividend. The dividend will furthermore not adversely affect the ability of the Company or the Group to make additional, motivated, investments according to assumed plans.
Liquidity
The proposed dividend will not affect the Company's or the Group's ability to meet their payment obligations in a timely manner. The Company and the Group have good access to liquidity reserves through short-term as well as long-term credits. The credits may be utilised at short notice, meaning that the Company and the Group are prepared to handle liquidity fl uctuations as well as possible unexpected events.
Overall position
The Board of Directors has considered all other known conditions which might affect the fi nancial position of the Company and the Group and which have not been considered within the scope of the above considerations. No circumstances have however been found showing that the proposed dividend would not be justifi ed.
Evaluation to actual value
Derivatives instruments and other fi nancial instruments have been valued to the actual value according to section 4 subsection 14a of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The valuation has showed a surplus value of SEK 32 million, which has increased the equity by the mentioned amount.

Audit Report
To the annual meeting of the shareholders of Castellum AB (publ) corporate identity number 556475-5550 We have audited the annual accounts, the consolidated accounts, the accounting records and the administration of the board of directors and the managing director of Castellum AB (publ) for the year 2007. The annual accounts and the consolidated accounts are presented in the printed version of this document on pages 6-61 and 64-100. The board of directors and the managing director are responsible for these accounts and the administration of the company as well as for the application of the Annual Accounts Act when preparing the annual accounts and the application of International Financial Reporting Standards IFRSs as adopted by the EU and the Annual Accounts Act when preparing the consolidated accounts. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the annual accounts, the consolidated accounts and the administration based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain high but not absolute assurance that the annual accounts and the consolidated accounts are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the accounts. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and their application by the board of directors and the managing director and signifi cant estimates made by the board of directors and the managing director when preparing the annual accounts and the consolidated accounts as well as evaluating the overall presentation of information in the annual accounts and the consolidated accounts. As a basis for our opinion concerning discharge from liability, we examined signi¬fi cant decisions, actions taken and circumstances of the company in order to be able to determine the liability, if any, to the company of any board member or the managing director. We also examined whether any board member or the managing director has, in any other way, acted in contravention of the Companies Act, the Annual Accounts Act or the Articles of Association. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion set out below.
The annual accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and give a true and fair view of the company's fi nancial position and results of operations in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Sweden. The consolidated accounts have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards IFRSs as adopted by the EU and the Annual Accounts Act and give a true and fair view of the group's fi nancial position and results of operations. The statutory administration report is consistent with the other parts of the annual accounts and the consolidated accounts.
We recommend to the annual meeting of shareholders that the income statements and balance sheets of the parent company and the group be adopted, that the profit of the parent company be dealt with in accordance with the proposal in the administration report and that the members of the board of directors and the managing director be discharged from liability for the financial year.
