2016 – A historical year for Castellum

During the year, the real estate portfolio changed significantly, due to major acquisitions and sales. Norrporten was acquired in the second largest real estate transaction ever in Sweden, and the acquisition of CORHEI in Östergötland was completed. The acquisition entails a real estate portfolio featuring higher density in central locations and higher quality. During the autumn, a substantial portfolio was sold in Norrland and Malmö. All actions were taken at continued low financial risk.

CEO'S COMMENTS A year when many missions were accomplished!

"Everything" happened at Castellum in 2016: a major acquisition, coupled with major sales, reorganization and brand positioning.

I'd like to broaden the perspective and – through a few key figures – highlight the great change in strategic position that Castellum has carried out:

2013 2016
Property value, SEK billion 38 71
Property value, SEK/share 230 259
Central location, proportion 30% 54%
Retail, proportion 12% 10%
Public tenants, proportion 9% 21%
Remaining lease length 3.3 years 3.8 years
Ongoing/decided company
projects, SEK billion
3.3 4.5
Building rights, SEK billion 0.9 1.5
Loan to value ratio 51% 50%/47%

Illustrated here is the overall eect of a large number of transactions, as well as a process that was initiated three years ago: more centrally located portfolio; a lower proportion of retail space; longer leases and more public tenants. Due to the foreseeable impact of e-commerce on traditional retail, we have worked towards a lower proportion of retail premises. And this entire transformation occurred while the loan to value ratio was reduced.

The picture that emerges is that of a new Castellum, positioned for higher growth at even lower financial risk. With a loan to value ratio of 50% (corresponding to 47% after received payment from autumn's large sales) we now have the financial muscle to develop our existing in-house projects at a higher yield than at acquisitions. In addition, new projects can be initiated with our extended building rights in high-growth locations, and we also retain the capacity to make strategic acquisitions.

Property values have increased significantly during the year. The increase in value totalled SEK 4 billion (SEK 17.42 per share). The acquisition of Norrporten alone meant an increase in value totalling SEK 1.6 billion. In short, a robust business deal. We are particularly pleased that the sellers are now on board as shareholders,

to take part in Castellum's continued growth. "Dare to make changes – even when successful" was the title of the CEO Comments in 2013. And that's what we have done. Alongside all real estate transactions, the company has now been converted into a cohesive Group under one brand name: Castellum. Close to one thousand Castellum flags are now flying across the country, from Sundsvall in the north to Öresund in the south. Many things came together in 2016, but as I mentioned, it's been a systematic and well-planned process over a number of years.

So, what about the future?

Naturally, we aim to reinforce our hard work of realizing the synergies of acquisition and reorganization. Tangible synergy eects, along with our announced savings programs, will gradually materialize during 2017 and achieve full impact in 2018. This also applies to eects from our record-high net leasing during 2016 and the continuing renegotiations that will be implemented in 2017. Add to that, our increasing project volumes featuring high occupancy rates.

Concern for the real estate market?

It's true, not everyone sees a bright future for real estate shares in the short term. The real estate index has fallen considerably since fears of higher interest rates began to take oin early autumn.

Are these concerns justified? My take on the subject is that they are not. Lower interest rates since the financial crisis have served their purpose as eective medicine for a sickly patient. If interest rates are now slowly beginning to normalize, it's rather a sign that the patient – the global economy – is starting to recover. This does not constitute bad news for business and commerce. Quite the contrary. For real estate companies, improved market conditions means higher interest rates, lower vacancy rates, higher inflation and increased rents. This normally contributes to

"I'm convinced that we'll get to enjoy the full positive eects of Castellum's repositioning in 2018."

rising property values. Of course, there may be a time gap between these various eects, but generally speaking: what's good for business in general is also good for commercial real estate companies. In the long run, increased interest expense will be well compensated for by other positive eects. Particularly for real estate companies like Castellum, featuring low financial risk.

Future-proof real estate portfolio

Castellum holds the highest number of environmentally certified properties in Sweden. We've prioritized sustainability issues since the company was first formed. This was confirmed in 2016 when we received two international awards. Furthermore, Castellum was the only Nordic real estate company selected for inclusion in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index. This occurred in competition with more than 3,000 best sustainability performers from all worldwide industries.

This is also the place to mention that we continue to support the Global Compact: the UN initiative that formulates international principles for companies regarding human rights, working environments, the Environment and corruption.

First strong eects start to arrive in 2017

Concerning 2017, the extensive 2016 property sales, comprising nearly SEK 7 billion, will naturally dampen growth in income from property management. On the other hand, these sales created financial resources for in-house project investments, generating a yield which is actually a couple of percentage points higher than the divested properties. Moreover, the sales also enhanced Castellum's ability to take advantage of acquisitions under optimal conditions. The larger remaining portion of Norrporten's properties retained by Castellum will join our other investments in contributing to solid growth. In combination with other synergies and savings programs, income from property management per share will continue to increase 2017, even if it remains somewhat shy of our long-term goal. I'm convinced that we'll get to enjoy the full positive eects of Castellum's repositioning in 2018. The Board's 2016 dividend proposal of SEK 5.00 per share – compared with SEK 4.25 for 2015 – will also be interpreted as a belief in Castellum's continued long-term positive development.

Henrik Saxborn CEO

Castellum's strategy

GROWTH STRATEGY

Castellum's operations are focused on cash flow growth, which – factored-in with low financial risk – provides conditions for solid asset growth within the company. All while oering shareholders a competitive dividend.

In order to achieve the overall objective of 10% property management income-growth per share, annual net investments of at least 5% of the property value will be made. This is currently equivalent to approx. SEKm 3,500. All investments are to contribute to the property management income-growth objective within 3 years and have a potential asset growth of at least 10%.

PORTFOLIO STRATEGY

Castellum's portfolio will support the target set for growth in income from property management, thereby creating shareholder value over time. This presumes a long-term portfolio strategy. Castellum's portfolio will be well diversified in terms of region, city, tenants and use-of-premises.

Geography

Castellum's real estate portfolio will be located in growth areas in Sweden and Denmark. This, together with rational property management and a strong market presence, provides for good business opportunities.

Property category

The real estate portfolio will consist of commercial properties with general and flexible premises for oce/retail and warehouse/logistics. The distribution among the dierent categories is determined by business opportunities, cash flow, risk-exposure and asset growth.

Real estate portfolio development

To create conditions for sustained growth and ecient management, the density and quality of the real estate portfolio has to increase constantly. Castellum will continue to grow with customer demand, mainly through new construction, extensions and reconstructions but also through acquisitions of buildings and land with building rights for future development. Quality, sustainability and access to infrastructure are important aspects driving development of the real estate portfolio.

Sales of properties will take place when they are commercially justified.

LEASING AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

Customers

A strong and clear customer focus is achieved through long-term relations, local presence and by supplying premises and services that meet customer requirements. The customer segment consists of commercial and industrial life, government agencies and municipalities.

Management and employees

Castellum will deliver service and property management via a decentralized organization with strong local presence. Business decisions are to be made locally – where operations take place –featuring short decision-making processes and prompt response. Property management will mainly be carried out by our own employed personnel.

Castellum focuses on attracting, recruiting, developing and retaining managers and employees with the relevant skills for making oers that promote company competitiveness and allow our customers to be attractive employers.

MISSION AND VISION

One of the largest real estate companies, while remaining equipped to act as close to the market as the smallest.

BUSINESS CONCEPT

Castellum's business concept is to develop and add value to the real estate portfolio, focusing on the best possible earnings and asset growth, by oering customized commercial properties, through a strong and clear presence in growth regions.

BUSINESS MODEL

Investments and development of commercial premises managed in a decentrilized and customerfocused organization. Castellum focuses on cashflow and operates with low financial risk.

The Group is to be an attractive workplace, oering ample possibilities for professional and personal development.

To promote development in our customer relations, high levels of customer and employee satisfaction will be assured through regular monitoring.

SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY

Operations will contribute to sustainable development, and sustainability eorts will be integrated with all business actions and result in tangible results. Sustainability eorts will permeate all business undertakings such as ownership, management, portfolio development, customer relations, employees and financing. Operations conducted in a responsible manner are vital for the company's short- and long-term success, as sustainability action drives profitability and long-term shareholder value.

All business operations will be characterized by high skills levels, good business ethics and benchmark assumption of responsibility.

FUNDING STRATEGY

Castellum will feature low financial risk. The chosen key ratios for risk are loan to value ratio and interest coverage ratio.

Castellum's funding strategy will support the business operations and manage the Group's financial risks while working for an open and transparent business climate. Castellum's funding strategy can be summarized in five pillars: diversification, liquidity, strength, transparency and flexibility.

The Castellum Share

Castellum will work for a competitive total return on the company's share relative to risk and also strive for high liquidity. At least 50% of pre-tax property management income will be distributed. Investment plans, consolidation needs, liquidity and financial position in general will be taken into account.

All actions will be taken from a long-term perspective and the company will hold frequent, open and fair reports to shareholders, the capital and credit markets and the media, without disclosing any individual business relationship.

In the long term, Castellum will be one of the largest listed real estate companies in Sweden. The Castellum share is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm Large Cap and shall be an attractive investment alternative from a long-term perspective, which creates return.

VALUE SYSTEM

Castellum will be a close and present partner to its customers, contributing to growth in customer enterprises by developing the business value of the premises for their activities. When this succeeds best, it creates growth for Castellum.

A key success factor is our knowledge of and feel for the local market, which is why business decisions are made where operations take place – with short decision-making processes and faster decisions.

All while Castellum provides the security of a large, national Group.

Castellum creates value

Castellum creates value by investing in and developing commercial premises as well as by conducting operations with a strong local presence in growth regions. Long-term value creation is subject to all operations being conducted at low financial risk.

Market comments

Swedish and Danish economy

Sweden, with 10 million inhabitants, is a country with an open and strong economy. This is primarily due to a stable and transparent business climate, high education levels, healthy public finances and high productivity. Sweden has long and extensive experience in international trade and international relations. This is evident from its relatively large share of world-leading corporations. The high export dependency of Swedish industry contributes to the fact that, historically, Sweden has shown the strong adaptability required to restructure the economy during economic changes.

The Swedish economy continues to perform well, with relatively strong GDP growth – even if forecasts have been revised slightly downwards. Growth continues to be driven by investment – mainly construction and infrastructure investments – and domestic private consumption.

Exports are also relatively strong. Geopolitical turmoil continues to dampen the mood. The result of the British EU referendum and the outcome of the US presidential election have created further uncertainty, and it is dicult to foresee what the long-term impact will be.

The labour market has been positively aected by the stronger economy. Labour shortages are expected to increase for several groups, primarily within the construction and public sectors. However, only marginal eects are expected for the unemployment rate, due to increasing labour supply. Inflation has begun to show signs of rising, but still remains low, due to subdued commodity prices and low inflation in the outside world. Development of the krona exchange rate plays a key role for inflation in Sweden, as a weak exchange rate normally contributes to higher inflation. The krona has gradually weakened, primarily during the second half of 2016, although part of the decline was recovered closer to year end.

Macro indicators, Sweden

Unemployment 6.5% (December 2016)
Inflation 1.7% (December 2016 compared to December 2015)
GDP growth 0.5% (Q3 2016 compared to Q2 2016)
Source: SCB

Source: National Institute of Economic Research in Sweden Source: National Institute of Economic Research in Sweden

According to Denmark's Nationalbank, Danish GDP growth is expected to increase to about 1.5% during 2017, compared with just under 1% in 2016. Increasing private consumption against a backdrop of rising employment is expected to provide the primary push, but favourable export prospects and investments are also contributing factors. Inflation in Denmark – expressed in terms of CPI – is also expected to rise to approximately 1.5% in 2017, compared with just over zero in 2016.

Interest and credit market

In 2016, the Swedish Riksbank continued both its unequivocal focus on the KPI goal of 2% and its ultra-loose monetary policy. Since February, when the repo rate was cut to a new historic low of -0.50%, the repo rate has remained unchanged, even while the repo rate path has gradually been adjusted downward. The Riksbank has bought government bonds during the year and announced further purchases during the first half of 2017. The Swedish repo rate path indicates that some further reduction is possible in the near future. The repo rate is not expected to begin a slow rise until the beginning of 2018.

Of particular significance to Castellum, the 3-month STIBOR rate moved downward after the Riksbank's lowering of the repo rate in February; since then it has traded in the range of –0.4% to –0.6%, ending at –0.6% by year end. The spread between short- and long-term interest rates increased during the year, even though the long-term interest rates remained historically low. During the latter part of the year, development was primarily driven by slightly higher long-term interest rates, due at least in part to strong fiscal stimulus measures announced by the US president-elect.

Availability of bank financing as well as funding in the Swedish capital market is considered favourable. Credit margins have been relatively stable during the year.

In Denmark, the 3-month Cibor rate was traded in the range of –0.05% to –0.25%, closing just under –0.25% at year end.

At year end, Castellum was the 18th largest listed real estate company in the European real estate market in terms of market capitalization.

"The Swedish property market continued to be attractive, with historically high transaction volumes."

European real estate market

The transaction volume for the European real estate market totalled approx. EUR 133 billion (138) for the segments oce and warehouse and industry, which corresponds to a decrease of 4% compared with previous year.

The Swedish transaction market grew rapidly in 2016 and Sweden represented approx. 6% (5%) of the European volume for the segments oce and warehouse and industrial.

At year end, Castellum was the 18th (20th) largest listed real estate company in the European real estate market in terms of market capitalization. If real estate companies that only focus on residential properties or shopping centres are excluded, Castellum is the 11th largest real estate company in terms of market capitalization.

Swedish and Danish real estate markets

Together, the 200 largest real estate owners in Sweden own a taxable area of 91 million square metres in terms of oce, retail, warehouse and industrial properties. Castellum is one of Sweden's largest real estate companies and represents approx. 4% of the taxable area among the 200 largest real estate owners. Apart from the listed companies, the largest real estate owners in Sweden are public corporations, as well as Swedish and foreign institutional investors. In addition, there are also a number of smaller real estate owners such as real estate and construction companies, users and individuals.

2016 marked a new record in the Swedish real

estate market with a total transaction volume of approx. SEK 197 billion: a whole 36% over last year's volume and about 23% higher than the previous record level from 2014. 2016 ended strongly, as De cember's volume was SEK 31 billion and the number of transactions in December amoun t ed to 83.

Castellum's acquisition of Norrporten was the single largest transaction, and Castellum's sale of the portfolios in Luleå, Umeå and parts of Sundsvall was the fourth largest transaction during the year.

There was a strong interest for oce and retail properties as well as for warehouse and logistics properties. Commercial properties accounted for a total of approx. 73% (77%) of the transaction volume. Foreign buyers accounted for 19% (26%) of the purchase volume. However, most of the foreign players were still visible in several major transactions concerning oce, retail and logistics facilities – especially at the end of the year when 27% of December's transactions were made by foreign players.

Geographically, regional cities increased their attractiveness in 2016 and accounted for 28% (22%) of the transaction volume in Sweden during the year. The volume was highest in Stockholm – 32% of the total transaction volume.

In 2016, the Danish real estate market continued to be attractive all over the country and in all segments for both domestic and international players. Strong demand during the year resulted in lower yield with higher property prices as a result.

The Copenhagen region is clearly the most attractive region for foreign investors.

The transaction volume in Denmark amounted to DKK 63 billion in 2016. The Copenhagen region accounted for DKK 49 billion (78% of the total Danish transaction volume). There was a strong interest for oce and retail properties as well as for warehouse and logistics properties. In total, commercial properties accounted for about 54% of the Danish transaction volume.

Swedish and Danish rental markets

The rental market has generally been strong, exhibiting high demand in most of Castellum's submarkets. In a few markets, office space is becoming scarce, due to low new-construction levels as well as strong growth (and hence a strong labour market).

The current logistics market is characterized by changes in trade patterns, where increased e-commerce volume has led to higher demand for logistics facilities near city centres, as well as large, efficient facilities in strategic outer locations.

In the Copenhagen region, rents in the central business district (CBD) remained relatively stable during the year, despite strong demand for modern properties. This was mainly due to the availability of several building rights, which helped balance supply and limited demand-driven rent increases. The oce rental market in Copenhagen is generally characterized by low volatility, meaning that small changes in market rents have a relatively marginal eect, even in times of increased economic uncertainty.

Market comments growth areas in focus

Sweden can be divided into a number of local labor markets where each market has dierent development strength. A local labor market is characterized by that it can function independently concerning work and commuting. Some markets are due to their size and business structure less dependent to changes in the world around than others and have their own inherent power to grow, where the size provides economies of scale. Sweden is currently in an strong urbanization trend where growth is concentrated in the longterm to medium-sized and larger regions, while the number of regions is reduced.

Castelllums property portfolio is focused on growth areas with good prospects. Copenhagen and the three major urban regions in Sweden have the greatest development potential, primarily explained by a larger population, relative to other parts of the country. This in turn creates a larger labor market, a diversified industrial structure, research opportunities and greater variety of shopping, entertainment and culture. Successful regions are also characterized by tolerance. The most attractive cities oer opportunities for quality education in universities and colleges. They embrace diversity and openness.

The map shows the Swedish local labour markets, where dark blue indicates the local labour markets showing the highest increase of total wages during 2006-2015 in absolute figures, and light blue the lowest. The local labour markets where Castellum operates are indicated.

Castellum's real estate portfolio and financial results 2016

Castellum is present in the nation's major growth regions and approx. 75% of Sweden's 10 million inhabitants live within Castellum's regional market areas. Castellum's real estate portfolio is concentrated to a few selected sub-markets where the regions have a strong position. The objective is to be one of the three largest realestate owners in each local market. Castellum's geographical submarkets can be characterized as stable, with good prospects for long-term positive development. The real estate portfolio is found in 17 locations in five growth regions: Central, West, Öresund, Greater Stockholm and North. The main part with 65% of the portfolio is located in the three major urban regions.

The commercial portfolio consists of 78% oce and retail properties as well as 18% warehouse and logistics properties. The properties are located from inner city sites to well situated working areas with good means of communication and services. The remaining 4% consists of project and undeveloped land. Castellum owns approx. 920 thousand sq.m. unutilized building rights.

On December 31, 2016 Castellum's real estate portfolio comprised 665 properties (597) with a total rental value of SEKm 5,499 (3,690) and a total lettable area of 4,292 thousand sq.m. (3,392). For properties owned at year-end the net operating income over the year was SEKm 3,376 (2,240).

Investments

During the year investments totalled SEKm 31,491 (3,553), of which SEKm 29,372 (2,321) were acquisitions and SEKm 2,119 (1,232) were new constructions, extensions, and reconstructions. After sales of SEKm 6,754 (1 140) net investments amounted to SEKm 24,737 (2,413).

Castellum has ongoing projects with remaining investments of approx SEK 1.5 billion.

During the first quarter Castellum acquired the remaining 50% of the shares in CORHEI Fastighets AB (former Ståhls) corresponding to a property value of SEKm 2,083. During the second quarter Castellum acquired Norrporten with un underlying property value of SEKm 26,415. During the last quarter 2015 agreement have also been concluded for the acquisition of one oce property under construction, in Hagastaden, Stockholm for SEK 1.6 billion with change of possession scheduled to February 2017. The property will be accounted for when the change of possession has taken place due to the agreements which is conditional upon i.e. completion.

During 2016 the real estate portfolio has changed according to the table below.

When a property is acquired, it is analyzed both in terms of energy utilization and environmental risk, and all new constructions and major recon structions are environmentally certified. The environmental risks in Castellum's real estate portfolio are considered to be small, and

Approx. 75% of Sweden's 10 million inhabitants live within Castellum's regional market areas.

ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION SYSTEM

Miljöbyggnad

Miljöbyggnad is a Swedish system that classifies buildings in terms of energy consumption, indoor environment and building materials. The system awards gold, silver or bronze levels and is used for both residential and commercial premises.

EU GreenBuilding

EU GreenBuilding focuses on improving the eciency of energy usage. The requirement is to improve energy eciency by 25%, or to use 25% less energy compared with new construction requirements in the building regulations [BBR] of the National Board of Housing, Building and Planning.

BREEAM

BREEAM, from Great Britain, is the most commonly used environmental classification system in the world. The system evaluates and rates the overall environmental impact of buildings.

LEED

LEED from USA is together with BREEAM the most commonly used environmental classification system in the world. The system evaluates and rates the overall environmental impact of buildings.

no significant fines have been paid for environmental crimes.

One way to secure the property portfolio for the future is to environmental classify the properties. A total of 24% of Castellum's real estate portfolio is environmentally certified according to Green Building, Miljöbyggnad, BREEAM or LEED. Further certification is ongoing of additional 479 thousand sq.m. corresponding to 11%.

The purpose of the certification is to reduce our climate impact and risks to the real estate portfolio, to lower costs, and to create facilities that are attractive to customers and their businesses – while we improve safety and working environments.

Property value and changes in value

The fair value of the properties at the year-end amounted to SEKm 70,757 (41,818), corresponding to SEK 16,558 per sq.m. (12,282). The average valuation yield over time for Castellum's real estate portfolio, excluding development projects, undeveloped land and building rights, can be calculated to 5.8% (6.5%). Of the total property value 95% represents freehold properties and 5% is site leasehold.

In 2016, the real estate market was characterized by high activity, high demand and limited supply, resulting in rising prices. The price increase was mainly attributable to centrally located oce properties in growth areas, properties with longterm leases and well-located warehouse and logistics properties.

Average valuation yield, SEKm

Net operating income properties 3,699 2,443

Valuation (excl. building rights of SEKm 388) 67,557 39,824
Average valuation yield 5.8% 6.5%

This price rise is reflected in Castellum's internal valuation through lower required yield, which at portfolio level corresponds to approximately 27

points. This, primarily in combination with project profits and improved cash flow results, resulted in a change in value for the year of SEKm 3,793, corresponding to 6%. Norrporten's change in value of SEKm 638 – or 3% – for the first six months, is included in the purchase price allocation (PPA) and therefore does not aect Castellum's income. Moreover, 80 properties were sold for SEKm 6,754 after deduction for assessed deferred tax and transaction costs totalling SEKm 233. The underlying property value – thus amounting to SEKm 6,986 – exceeded the latest valuation of SEKm 6,461 by SEKm 525. The sales in the North Region means that the goodwill that occurred in conjunction with the acquisition of Norrporten has changed with SEKm –373. As each property is valued individually, the portfolio premium that can be noted in the property market is not taken into account.

Rental income

Group's rental income amounted to SEKm 4,533 (3,299). For oce and retail properties, the average contracted rental level, including charged heating, cooling and property tax, amounted to SEK 1,561 per sq.m., whereas for warehouse and logistics properties, it amounted to SEK 818 per sq.m. Rental levels, which are considered to be in line with the market, have in comparable portfolio increased by approx. 2% compared with previous year, which inter alia is an eect from indexation (and can be compared with the usual industry index clause October to October which was 0.1% in 2016) and renegotiations carried out. Castellum's higher indexation is due to the Groups focus on index clauses with minimum upward adjustment in the contract portfolio, which oers protection against low deflation and inflation.

The average economic occupancy rate was 91.3% (90.3%). The total rental value for vacant premises for the year amounted to approx. SEKm 550 (392). The rental income for the year includes a lump sum of SEKm 20 (8) as a result of early termination of leases.

Gross leasing (i.e. the annual value of total leasing) during the period was SEKm 489 (316), of which SEKm 152 (55) were leasing of new constructions, extensions and reconstructions. Notices of termination amounted to SEKm 311 (298), of which bankruptcies were SEKm 17 (11) and SEKm 5 (18) were notices of termination with more than 18 months remaining length of contract. Net lease for the year was hence SEKm 178 (18) and for the fourth quarter isolated SEKm 84 (11). The time dierence between reported net leasing and the eect in income thereof is estimated to be between 9–18 months.

"The average valuation yield for Castellum's real estate portfolio, excluding development projects and undeveloped land, can be calculated to 5.8%. The lower valuation yield can partly be explained by major reallocations in the property portfolio."

Property costs

Property costs amounted to SEKm 1,497 (1,074) corresponding to SEK 376 per sq.m. (316). The increase SEK per square metres refers to the acquisition of Norrporten, whose property portfolio consists of oce premises with a higher costs per square metres, but also higher rental income. Consumption for heating during the year has been calculated to 92% (88%) of a normal year according to the degree day statistics.

Central administrative expenses

Central administrative expenses totalled SEKm 143 (113) and has been charged with SEKm 11 for non-recurring costs related to ongoing work to collect the Group under the joint name Castellum and coordination of support functions. This also includes costs for a profit-and-share-price related incentive plan for 10 persons in executive management of SEKm 20 (11).

Transaction and restructuring costs

During 2016, Castellum acquired Norrporten, resulting in transaction costs of SEKm 126. In addition, a major business restructuring was initiated, and this is expected to generate synergies of SEKm 150.

The cost of restructuring has been estimated at approx. SEKm 40 of which SEKm 37 have been charged to the period's result.

Income from joint venture

In Q2 2015, Castellum AB (publ) closed a deal with Heimstaden AB (publ), which meant that Castellum acquired 50% of the property management company CORHEI Fastighets AB (previously Ståhls) for SEKm 505.

Castellum gained access in May/June 2015. The agrement provided an opportunity to acquire, through an option, the remaining 50% at market value during the autumn 2016 at the earliest. Thus, the option was used already during Q1 2016: Castellum has thereby owned 100% of CORHEI Fastighets AB since the beginning of March this year. The acquisition price for the remaining 50% amounted to SEKm 555.

The acquisition constitutes a company acquisition in phases, resulting in a revaluation of SEKm

Rental value and economic occupancy rate Average valuation yield over time

27 of the 50% already owned. The revaluation is the dierence between the purchase price paid, SEKm 555, and the previously recognized net asset value of SEKm 528 on the access date in March. As a result of the stepwise company acquisition, there is a goodwill entry of SEKm 141, corresponding to the net deferred tax liability.

Income from joint ventures amounted to SEKm 3 (21) and refers to Castellum's 50% share of the income in CORHEI Fastighets AB (former Ståhls). Of this income, SEKm 4 (23) refers to income from property management and SEKm –1 (–5) to tax.

Net interest

Net interest items were SEKm –832 (–602). The average interest rate level was 2.7% (3.0%). Net interest income was positively aected by approx. SEKm 150 due to the average interest rate level decrease by 0.3%-units.

Tax

The nominal corporate tax rate in Sweden is 22%. Due to the possibility to deduct depreciation and reconstructions for tax purposes, and to utilize tax loss carry forwards, the paid tax is low. Paid tax occurs since a few subsidiaries have no possibilities to group contributions for tax purpose.

Remaining tax loss carryforwards can be calculated to SEKm 2,392 (809). Furthermore, there are derivatives at an undervalue of SEKm 385, which are not tax deductible, as well as untaxed reserves totalling SEKm 31. Fair values for the properties exceed their fiscal value by SEKm 36,851 (22,239) of which SEKm 1,992 (1,893) relates to the acquisition of properties accounted for as asset acquisitions. As deferred tax liability, a full nominal 22%

tax of the net dierence is reported, reduced by the deferred tax relating to asset acquisitions, i.e., SEKm 7,065 (4,299).

Castellum has no current tax disputes.

Income over time

Income from property management over the past 10 years shows stable development and has grown by an average of 7% per year. Property values have been volatile over the past 10 years with average growth of 1.3% per year which is in line with inflation.

"Castellum's Income from property management over the past 10 years shows stable development and has grown by an average of 7% per year."

Acquisition of Norrporten strengthening Castellum's market position

On 13 April 2016, Castellum signed an agreement with the Second AP Fund and the Sixth AP Fund to acquire all shares in Norrporten AB (publ). Access to the shares was gained on 15 June 2016, for an acquisition value of SEKm 13,468, distributed as follows: SEKm 10,393 in cash and 27.2 million shares worth approx. SEKm 3,075, divided among 19,194,458 newly issued shares and 8,006,708 shares held in treasury. The valuation of these shares was made at market value on the date of transaction, amounting to SEK 113/share (market price quoted on Nasdaq). Acquisition costs amounted to SEKm 126 and are accounted for in the income statement.

The acquisition is accounted for as a business combination, hence the occurrence of a goodwill item of SEKm 1,891 – corresponding to net deferred-tax liabilities at the time of acquisition.

Norrporten has been one of Sweden's largest real estate companies focused on managing and developing modern, high-quality oce space centrally located in growth areas in Sweden and Copenhagen. The acquisition completed and strengthened Castellum's market position: the supply of various types of properties and premises increased, and the Group's geographical presence expanded. Furthermore, the acquisition strengthened Castellum's presence and market position in five cities where the Group was already established: Stockholm, Copenhagen, Helsingborg, Örebro and Jönköping. The acquisition also provided Castellum with scale as well as attractively located properties in Gävle, Sundsvall, Östersund, Umeå, Luleå and Växjö. Norrporten's tenant structure

also brought longer leases into the lease portfolio, along with increased levels of public tenants. During Q4, 2016, sales were completed for the entire portfolios of Luleå, Östersund and Umeå – along with portions of the Sundsvall portfolio.

The acquisition is expected to result in synergies of approx. SEKm 150, of which about SEKm 120 are estimated to be realized successively until the end of 2017. The remaining SEKm 30, primarily attributable to operating costs, will be realized over a 3-year period from the date of acquisition.

Active property development requires investments

Long-term and sustainable growth implies constant improvement and development of the real estate portfolio through new construction, reconstructions and extensions – as well as acquisitions. Investments will meet customer requirements for suitable premises and workplaces as well as society's need for urban environments that ensure growth over time. New development projects are added on an ongoing basis through the acquisition of properties with development potential and unutilized building rights.

Castellum – one of the largest project developers in Sweden

In order to achieve the overall growth objective of 10%, Castellum needs to invest. Investments in new construction, extensions and reconstruction in our real estate portfolio often provide higher yield than acquisitions. In the last 10 years, Castellum has invested SEK 52 billion, which means SEK 5.2 billion on average per year.

During 2016 Castellum had high activity in the portfolio and investments totaled SEKm 31,491 (3,553), of which SEKm 29,372 (2,321) were acquisitions and SEKm 2,119 (1,232) awere new constructions, extensions and reconstructions. After sales of SEKm 6,754 (1,140) net investments amounted to SEKm 24,737 (2,413).

During the first quarter Castellum acquired the remaining 50% of the shares in CORHEI Fastighets AB (former Ståhls) corresponding to a property value of SEKm 2,083.

During the second quarter Castellum acquired Norrporten with un underlying property value of SEKm 26,415.

During the last quarter 2015 agreements have also been concluded for the acquisition of one oce property under construction, in Hagastaden, Stockholm for SEK 1.6 billion with change of possession scheduled to February 2017. The property will be accounted for when the change of possession has taken place due to the agreements which is conditional upon i.e. completion.

Requirements for sustainable investments

Castellum environmentally classifies all new constructions and larger reconstructions according to at least Miljöbyggnad level Silver. Castellum currently owns 89 of Sweden's 319

Green Building-certified buildings. The purpose of certification is to reduce the climate impact and the risks in the property portfolio, reduce costs as well as create attractive premises for the customers and their business.

A total 24% of Castellum's real estate portfolio is environmentally certified according to Green Building, Miljöbyggnad or BREEAM. Further new construction is ongoing of additional 479 thousand sq.m. corresponding to 11%.

Development of our growth regions

For Castellum, as a long-term real estate owner and urban developer, it is important to contribute to sustainable development of the communities, wherein the Group operates. Collaboration also takes place in about 100 networks and business associations to develop all regions that host our operations.

We also cooperate continuously with other parties to push development, share knowledge about new technologies and exchange experiences. Examples of networking partners include the EPRA Sustainability Committee, The Energy Agency's Beställargrupp för lokaler (BELOK), Sweden Green Building Council, energy companies, local sanitation companies and Universities.

ERIK A OLSÉN CHIEF INVESTMENT OFFICER, CASTELLUM AB

"Today's growing cities are characterized by dynamic structures with mixed development, where we'll happily contribute to building a mixeduse city. Being a great corporate citizen in Sweden's major cities, Castellum has a responsibility to carry out urban development in a sustainable and long-term manner. We contribute as a long-term owner, with great willingness to invest in urban development in many dierent ways.

One of the best examples of our involvement in urban development is Örebro, right by the central train station. Here, Castellum is currently developing approx. 15,000 square metres of sustainable oce space, featuring a façade partially covered with solar panels. The project contributes sustainable oces to the city – in a prime location with direct access to public transport."

Building rights by region and sq.m.

Building Rights and Potential Development Projects – build future Castellum

Part of Castellum's strategy is to build new premises. In order to o¤er the customer new premises with the shortest possible time for moving in, it is a competitive advantage to own building rights in attractive locations with approved plans. Castellum has approx. 920,000 sq.m. unutilized building rights. For a number of the unutilized building rights there are finalized project plans which can be started relatively promptly.

Unutilized building rights are valued at SEKm 1,530 (1,352) corresponding to approx. SEK 1,700 (1,700) per sq.m. on average. Of the building rights approx. 431,000 sq.m. corresponding to approx. SEKm 1,141 (883) are reported as development projects and undeveloped land. The remaining are reported among oce/retail and warehouse/industrial properties since they are addititions to already developed properties.

Eminent in Hyllie, Malmö

In the expansive area of Hyllie, in Malmö, Castellum plans for the construction of modern, highly sustainable oce space totalling close to 8,500 sq. m. The project, called Eminent, is being planned as the first oce building in the Nordic countries to be certified according to WELL – an international construction standard that factors-in workplace well-being for people. The WELL standard is based on seven concepts that aect health: air, water, lighting, sound, diet, exercise and wellness, which implies particularly high requirements for ventilation, heating, lighting and sound. In addition to WELL, the intention is also to certify the building according to the Miljöbyggnad Gold environmental standard.

Kungspassagen in Uppsala

Castellum is constructing the Kungspassagen oce building in one of the city's best locations, close to both the travel centre and the city's entire range of restaurants, services and shopping.

The new oce building will be built according to the Miljöbyggnad environmental classification system (silver level, minimum), and feature solar cells, green electricity and carbon-neutral district heating.

Logistics Park in Gothenburg

Castellum and four other players plan to jointly create a new logis tics park in close proximity to the Port of Gothenburg: the Port of Gothenburg Logistics Park. The initiative is one of the largest of its kind in Sweden. The location near Scandinavia's largest port, featuring key industries and access to good infrastructure, is perfectly suited for ecient warehouse and logistics operations. The allocated land allows for new constructions of up to 65,000 sq.m.

Sustainability is a requirement for economic growth 34 CASTELLUM ANNUAL REPORT 2016 DIRECTORS' REPORTRESPONSIBLE BUSINESS

Castellum is one of the largest players in the real estate industry, and both profitability and capacity for growth are based on continuous development of the company. Sustainability activities are about conducting business in a responsible manner and creating sustainable solutions from economic and ecological as well as social perspectives.

Sustainable highlights 2016

"We can look back on a year of continued high activity in the area of sustainability. We've increased the transparency of our audits, which earned us several awards. Within the organization, we've continued to challenge ourselves with higher goals, and we know that what we measure, we actually do", says Filip Elland, Head of Sustainability.

Reduced energy consumption and lower CO2 emission Green financing

Energy consumption in the Group has been reduced by 26% since 2007 and carbon dioxide emissions decreased by 71% per square metre since 2007.

The ultimate aim is that 90% of the energy consumption should come from non-fossil sources by 2020. In 2016, 96% was achieved.

In autumn 2016, Castellum issued Green MTN Bonds totalling SEKm 1,000. The settlement amount is used to finance selected real estate investments whose environmental profile meets the requirements of Castellum's Green Framework.

Broad community involvement

Castellum invests in young people

Castellum has the strong ambition of oering young people concrete work experience. In 2016, a total of 77 young people worked at Castellum as trainees or vacation workers.

Fourteen of the young people were apprentices, which means that they worked in the organization for a year. The apprentices constitute 4% of the Group's employees. An apprenticeship provides work experience that can be highlighted in CVs, plus a number of contacts that may enhance opportunities to gain work experience at other workplaces.

The photo shows Sofyan and Ramazan who held apprenticeships at Castellum in Stockholm, 2016.

Sustainability e orts rewarded!

Castellum is included in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI), which includes worldwide companies that perform best in terms of sustainability.

GRESB Global Sector Leader, which means that Castellum is ranked number one in the world in the real estate industry, in the sector for office and logistics premises.

EPRA Gold is a prize for the best sustainability reporting in Europe. One recognition that Castellum does what we promise and communicates it clearly.

According to the CDP sustainability index, Castellum achieved the highest rating of all real estate companies in Sweden. This makes Castellum the highest ranking real estate company in CDP's international survey.

The UN Sustainable Development Goals

At the UN Summit in September 2015, the world's heads of state and government adopted 17 global goals. The countries of the world have committed themselves to leading the world toward a sustainable and equitable future, beginning on 1 January 2016 and continuing until 2030.

A first mapping has been conducted according to the UN's global sustainability goals to analyze relevant areas for Castellum operations. These goals appear colour-highlighted in the figure and they will begin to be implemented in strategy and policy during 2017.

Sustainability involves creating long-term solutions from economic, ecological and social perspectives, and refining these values through our operating processes.

In addition to taking responsibility and creating value for our society, the planet and future generations, Castellum's sustainability eorts also provide the Group with a competitive advantage. Moreover, well integrated sustainability eorts contribute to better management and improved control of our properties. This means more satisfied customers, dedicated employees and increased profitability. In other words, sustainability is about taking the right decisions today so that the stakeholders – on whom Castellum's operations depend – will choose Castellum in the future.

For Castellum, ecological sustainability means utilizing resources such as energy and water as wisely and eciently as possible. For our core business activities, it also means that new constructions as well as extensions and reconstructions are built according to high environmental standards.

Castellum is actively committed to the communities and regions in which we operate, and cooperates with customers, municipalities and other partners. This also means that Castellum collaborates with schools and universities and oers young people apprenticeships and summer jobs. And, naturally, we look out for – and care for – Castellum employees.

Organization and governance of sustainability eorts

Our sustainability eorts permeate all operations and are controlled via a management system comprising a common policy, guidelines, overall measurable objectives and detailed action plans.

The aim of this work is to monitor, document, evaluate and improve Castellum's sustainability activities. Activities are followed up annually

and are regularly reported to Executive Group Management. Castellum has a Head of Sustainability with the task of conducting and developing the sustainability eorts of the Group as a whole. Each region has a Sustainability Coordinator, and the sustainability eorts are integrated into operations.

Castellum's Board of Directors annually adopts the sustainability policy and Code of Conduct as well as continuously discussing and following up various eorts. Castellum's CEO is ultimately responsible for all sustainability work.

Castellum's Sustainability Report is prepared in accordance with the GRI and limited reviewed by Deloitte. To maintain structured environmental activities, Castellum is certified in accordance with the environmental management system Miljödiplomering (Environmental Certification). In addition, parts of the business are ISO 14001 certified. A joint operational sustainability group develops activities, shares experiences and monitors relevant changes in the global environment. There is also a Sustainability Forum with the aim of

updating and integrating development eorts into Castellum operations. The Sustainability Forum consists of managers from the core business: HR, Project Development, Executive Management, Regional CEOs, Finance and Purchasing.

Castellum's sustainability eorts require committed and skilled employees; further training in sustainability issues is therefore oered on a regular basis. The ambition is that all new employees will undergo introductory sustainability training.

Stakeholder dialogue

To develop and improve operations, Castellum has identified and analyzed stakeholder expectations of our business. Stakeholder dialogues conducted in 2016 with customers, suppliers, employees, Executive Group Management and the Board of Directors highlight which sustainability issues they considered most important for Castellum. The result is shown in the matrix below.

Values

Castellum takes long-term actions and strives to work close to – and be there for – our customers and their operations, while we build upon longterm relationships with them, as well as other partners. Castellum employees are ambassadors for the company culture, and their actions are crucial to how the company is perceived.

Castellum's knowledge of and feel for the local market are key success factors; business decisions are thus made where business is conducted, with short decision-making processes and ecient and quick responses. At the same time, we can oer the security of a large, national Group.

Trust is the most important commodity for Castellum, and our common values can be sum-

External priority

marized as worthy of trust, regardless of whether we collaborate with customers, capital market participants or other stakeholders.

Trustworthiness relies upon:

  • Creating responsible growth
  • Solid knowledge of the local market
  • Taking action with a long-term perspective
  • Continuous improvement and development

One example of Castellum's strong corporate culture is demonstrated in the NMI (Satisfied Employee Index) survey.

Code of conduct

The code of conduct provides a basis for how Castellum employees should behave toward each other as well as toward customers and other external stakeholders. It is based on Castellum values and the UN Global Compact principles and the code clarifies Castellum's position on human rights, working conditions, business ethics and information. Castellum is to provide quality service, abide by laws and regulations, never discriminate against anyone, and create a quality working environment and high safety level. Castellum also maintains focus on gender equality issues.

Castellum operations, conducted in Sweden and Denmark, are subject to each country's laws and regulations concerning, for example, working conditions, occupational safety and freedom of association. Castellum's HR manual addresses issues such as working environment, equal opportunities, salaries, pensions and company cars.

Preventative eorts on ethics and corruption issues are being carried out throughout the Group, where preferred conduct for various everyday situations is discussed. A pivotal element is that

Global Compact

Castellum has signed FN Global Compact, which is an initiative to coordinate matters of human rights, labor conditions, the precautionary principle and responsibility concerning the environment and anti-corruption. Global Compact includes 10 principles.

Generated and distributed economic value Value generated according to GRI-indicator G4-EC1

The primary focus for Castellum's sustainability efforts

Our stakeholder dialogues, combined with the company's own materiality analysis, define the Castellum focus to:

THE PLANET How we responsibly and eectively reduce resource use and carbon emissions that cause global warming.

FUTURE-PROOFING How we create a sustainable real estate portfolio in a changing world.

WELLNESS How we promote health, wellness and productivity.

SOCIETY How we can create betterfunctioning communities, featuring increased employment and involvement.

The matrix shows the results of stakeholder dialogues conducted through surveys during the autumn of 2016.

The expansion of solar electricity Uppsala

In summer 2016, Castellum implemented the Group's largest solar park to date in Uppsala. Business Area Manager Björn Johansson comments:

"It means that we can now run the entire cooling system, as well as part of the ventilation system, of a large building in Boland City on solar electricity during the light half of the year, from March to October. We get a high yield and save approximately 255 MWh per year – from just one such facility. What's positive about solar power is that the need and eect are greatest at the same time, during the warm months. But solar cells also provide a lot of energy during winter, even if the sunny days are fewer and the sun's angle is less favourable. Then, the solar electricity helps run geothermal heating pumps."

"Solar cells have become part of everyday life; we look into this with every new project."

At the end of 2016, Castellum had ten solar parks. In 2016, Castellum implemented the Group's largest solar park yet in Uppsala, with a capacity of approx. 255 kW.

all employees understand and follow the code of conduct.

Castellum has a whistleblowing service, which can be reached via the Group's web page and Intranet. The service aims to help both employees and external parties to act responsibly.

All whistleblower cases are handled according to established procedures. Those reporting a whistleblower case receive prompt feedback and then the aim is to maintain a dialogue with the initial notifying person. He or she is also encouraged to contact the Compliance Department. All cases are handled confidentially.

Work environment

Castellum protects and supports both employees and suppliers, and it is our responsibility to see that no one is hurt, either physically or mentally, due to workplace activities. Castellum works continuously to develop and improve working environments within the entire Group.

In 2016, health and safety training was provided for all Group employees.

Community involvement

Castellum works proactively to oer young people work experience. In 2016, a total of 77 young people worked at Castellum as vacation workers, trainees and apprentices, as well as through mentorship or thesis writing. Fourteen of the young people were apprentices, thereby representing 4% of Castellum's employees (excluding former Norrporten employees).

We participated in ongoing collaborations with universities, colleges and elementary schools at several locations regarding thesis writing and mentor ship. During this past year, Castellum has collaborated with, for example, Linköping University, Mälardalen University, Mid Sweden University, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Lund University and Chalmers University of Technology.

In 2016, Castellum provided activities and support to help with the refugee crisis. In addition, Castellum premises were used as meeting places, workplaces or storage rooms for refugees.

Castellum's sponsorship and support are focused on promoting young people's education and health. For example, Castellum sponsors the Science Festival, the Ung Företagsamhet organization, and local sports clubs. Further, Castellum contributes directly to, for example, the City Mission and the Childhood Cancer Foundation.

Our suppliers

There are clear sustainability requirements for new construction and extensions, as well as for the purchase of goods and services. For the most part, Castellum hires local suppliers – where heating, cooling, water and electricity suppliers account for a large share of the hired suppliers.

For larger purchases and procurements, Castellum's ambition is to audit suppliers and contractors according to the Group's common sustain ablity guidelines regarding, for example, material require ments, quality and work environment. Although requirements are not identical for all procurements, there are general, overall demands regarding the Environmental Management System, Environmental Manager and choice of sustainable building materials – both from environmental and health perspectives – as well as for environmental and waste-management plans.

Requirements for new construction and major reconstructions of oce or retail premises follow the regulations of the Miljöbyggnad environmental classification systems, level Silver or higher. However, environmental certification is also done using the EU Green Building, BREEAM or LEED systems. For each major procurement, there are specific administrative regulations as well as working environment requirements.

Castellum has a Code of Conduct for suppliers and partners.

Customers

Key success factors include the organization's knowledge and feel for local markets. Through local organizations close to the customers, Castellum makes business decisions directly, within local markets. We can thus oer customers shorter decision-making processes, quicker responses and smoother-running business activities. In addition, customers can enjoy the increased security provided by a large national corporation.

Castellum's customers reflect Swedish and Danish business life

Castellum's large contract portfolio, comprising approx. 6,000 commercial contracts, reflects Swedish and Danish trade and industry, as well as the economy, generally.

Castellum has balanced risk distribution in the commercial contracts regarding geography, type of premises, size, length of contracts and customer industry. Over 2016, the contract portfolio changed with the acquisition of Norrporten, and – among other things – this meant that the average lease length was extended from 3.4 to 3.8 years and the proportion of government customers increased from 10% to 21%. The single largest contract accounts for approx. 2% of Castellum's total rental income.

Being close to the customer

Castellum's organization, with local presence through 20 business areas, provides close relationships to customers and short decisionmaking processes. Castellum employees work close to

the market, which means natural access to fresh information about customers' current and future operations. Customers can thereby be oered premises suited to their needs and benefit from optimal personal service and quick answers.

Castellum employees have a continuous dialogue with customers through personal meetings as well as customer magazines and the website.

As one of the largest real estate owners on local markets, Castellum collaborates with municipalities and local networks, e.g. corporate associations, to be an active urban developer that creates attractive work environments for customers.

Satisfied customers

Positive and long-term customer relations are of crucial importance for growth, and customer surveys are conducted regularly. To evaluate and follow up on our eorts, an external customer survey, the Satisfied Customer Index, is carried out annually. The survey indicates general customer opinion about Castellum as well as how

CECILIA S ALDÉN BUSINESS AREA MAN-AGER IN NORRKÖPING

Castellum's business idea is to have first-hand knowledge of local markets. What does it mean to be local and close? Our customers become the nucleus and the real estate is created around them. Nearness to our customers and interaction with them form the primary elements of our integral business concept.

How is daily work a ected by this work approach? It's about being perceptive and humble, about capturing needs and finding flexible solutions.

How is that achieved? By organizing ourselves the way we do. We work with short decision-making processes, which means that our customers get rapid feedback.

How has the 2016 organizational change at Castellum a ected this concept? The entire Group is now working under the same brand, which has made communication with our customers much easier. It gives us more power in our daily assignments – while also utilizing a larger group's broad expertize and strength.

When it comes to your own area of responsibility, how do you see the future of Norrköping?

Together with our customers we'll take an even greater responsibility for leading the development of functional areas in a city that's prospering more than ever. Our ambition is to continue developing our real estate portfolio – especially through project development.

CHANGED CUSTOMER PORTFOLIO

Every day, 250,000 people go to their workplaces at any of Castellum's 6,000 customers. In 2016, Castellum's customer base changed significantly, mainly due to the acquisition of Norrporten. The proportion of government customers increased from 11% to 21% and the average lease length was extended from 3.4 to 3.8 years.

MINIMUM DEMANDS FOR GREEN LEASES

  • Exchange of information on environmental ambitions and environmental activities
  • Annual consultation and follow-up meeting
  • Development and follow-up of action plan
  • Written environmental information to customer's employees
  • Review of energy declaration
  • Exchange of information on resource use
  • Optimization of operating times
  • Purchase of renewable electricity
  • Information on optimal placement of work-stations
  • Furnishing and information re property change-of-use
  • Environmental considerations regarding choice of materials
  • Appliances with low energy utilization
  • Reporting for dismantled and removed building materials and furnishings
  • Environmental considerations and maintenance, caretaking and operations management

well Castellum performs in the areas of service, business relationships, indoor premises, property condition, environmental questions and information.

The survey carried out in 2016 – which included oces, retail, warehouses and industry – comprised a majority of Castellum's major customers. The survey continues to show consistently high marks for Castellum, with a weighted index of 79 out of 100. This is higher than the industry benchmark of 73 for oce premises.

The 2016 survey was performed at the new Castellum, i.e. with both Castellum's and former Norrporten's current customers. Castellum and Norrporten clearly correspond with one another, and the dierences between the regions are marginal.

At Castellum, service willingness shows the highest index of the surveyed categories.

The category includes parameters such as personal attention, service and availability. A significant portion of the customers surveyed – 89% – reply that they are willing to lease from Castellum again and gladly recommend Castellum as a landlord to others.

Leasing activity

Castellum enjoys high leasing activity. During 2016, the Group signed 757 new leases, for a total annual value of SEKm 489. Robust leasing activities indicate the importance of taking care of customers and networks.

Commercial leases – formal agreement with the customer

Commercial leases are generally signed for 3-5 years, with a 9-month notice period, and they are paid quarterly, in advance. The rental level can change when the lease in question is due for renegotiation.

Leases usually include a base-rent – i.e. the rent agreed upon when signing the contract – and an index clause that provides for an annual adjustment of the rent: either as a certain percentage of the previous year's inflation or as a minimum upward adjustment of a set percentage.

A lease may also contain an addendum for the tenant's share of the property's total heating, cooling and property-tax costs.

Green leases

Sustainability goes hand in hand with long-term growth, and Castellum oers green leases to both current and new customers. This means that both parties collaborate on issues such as energy eciency and indoor environment, choice of building material and source-separation of waste. The aim is to reduce environmental impact at the premises. In 2016, 31 new green leases, comprising 82,000 sq. m., were signed, and Castellum holds a total of 90 green leases, amounting to 302,000 sq. m.

Satisfied Customer Index

Lease size structure

Organization and employees

Castellum manages the Group's properties through local organizations to create proximity to customers, shorter decision-making processes and local decision-making power. In 2016, Castellum implemented major organizational change in order to further improve conditions for continued growth and to strengthen local decision-making power.

Castellum operates as one of the largest real estate companies, while remaining equipped to act as close to the market as one of the smallest

Castellum's local presence creates business value through familiarity with customer operations and requirements, as well as valuable knowledge of the local real estate and rental markets, market changes and business opportunities. The decentralized organization provides short decisionmaking processes and creates a dynamic and active organization.

Employees are oered challenging tasks via a flat organization where competence development and experience exchanges are considered key success factors.

There is a clear correlation between satisfied employees, satisfied customers and company growth.

Taking Castellum to the next level

The transformation carried out in 2016 means that the organization was gathered together, under the same brand: Castellum. Castellum's local subsidiaries are organized into five regions: Central, North, Stockholm, West and Öresund – comprising 20 business areas. The purpose of the transformation was to create a more unified organization and provide better conditions for the business areas to focus on local operations. In addition, local empowerment increased. The transformation also provides increased sharing of support functions, as well as qualitative and ecient support processes for IT, finance, HR, communication etc.

Further, Castellum launched a number of strategic initiatives to develop the next generation of cities: for example, through a focus on digitalization.

In June 2016, Castellum acquired one of Sweden's largest real estate companies – Norrporten AB. The acquisition strengthens Castellum's real estate portfolios in Stockholm, Copenhagen, Helsingborg, Örebro and Jönköping. The deal also established new real estate portfolios in Gävle, Sundsvall, Östersund, Umeå, Luleå and Växjö. Later that year, entire real estate portfolios in Östersund, Umeå, Luleå were sold, along with part of the Sundsvall portfolio.

Integration of the two companies is underway, including common systems, work procedures and – not least – corporate culture and values.

Another important part of the integration is working with customers. Here, Castellum and Norrporten have clearly been operating on a similar wavelength – and the dierences between the regions are marginal.

Castellum has initiated a process to reduce the number of regions from five to four. The intention is that the business areas Sundsvall and Gävle, which now form the region North, will be merged with the region Stockholm.

Monotoring the operations

As parent company, Castellum AB is responsible for capital allocation, as well as measuring and comparing regional eciency along with assetvalue growth of the real estate portfolio. During 2016 a common ERP system and payroll system

ANNE THELIN-EHRLING HR MANAGER AT CASTELLUM AB

" 2016 was both eventful and challenging. We started an exciting journey when six independent subsidiaries became four – while the acquisition of Norrporten was being conducted. As the new HR Manager, I'm impressed by the commitment, strength and ambition that managers and coworkers have demonstrated during the year.

We've now gathered Castellum under one brand – we are one Group – which provides us with many advantages and possibilities. We can work together, share experiences and – not least – demonstrate that we're a large company, full of expertise and power. This is of great importance for our employees and customers, and also for our eorts in attracting new employees.

The new corporate structure entails changes in working methods and the structuring of common work procedures.

We'll continue to be one of the largest real estate companies, acting as one of the smallest, with a long-term approach. Our obvious task is to actively work toward ensuring a common direction towards remaining an attractive and leading employer: further strengthening company expertise and continuing to advance the Castellum spirit – that sense of belonging and pride." was implemented for the Group. Work has been initiated concerning common systems such as energy monitoring and CRM-system.

Castellum has decided to replace a number of regional board meetings with Business Reviews, where business issues are discussed, according to region. Castellum AB is therefore actively involved in regional activities, thus providing the Group with a comprehensive picture of all activities. The regions hold board meetings once a year as well as two Business Reviews per year and region.

Castellum operations are controlled by rules for decision-making and work allocation, policies and instructions. Policies are in place for finance and financial activities, communication, insider issues, sustainability, crisis management, and Code of Conduct for employees as well as for suppliers and partners.

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 financial risk management) as well as overall IT/IS strategies, human resources matters and sustainability eorts. During 2016, the finance function was also coordinated through the parent company and an ERP system for the entire organization was implemented. Castellum AB has 43 employees (24).

Cooperating and exchanging experiences

Strengthening the Group through increased collaboration is a continuous process. Common development eorts occur within the Group. A lively experience exchange between local Group companies makes upgraded expertise available to the entire organization. The joint development groups provide opportunities for continued improvement, and the groups include participants representing all regions. The groups regularly discuss issues within specific areas such as rental, IT, management, project development, sustainability, communication, purchases and personnel. In addition to the permanent development groups, there are project teams who handle current issues.

The Group has a common intranet where

experiences and knowledge can easily be shared between employees in all regions.

Attractive workplace

By oering competence development and creating a motivating work situation, Castellum promotes loyalty and job satisfaction. The decentralized organization means that each employee enjoys well-defined areas of responsibility with a high level of empowerment, leading to professional as well as personal development. Employee performance reviews occur yearly with all employees. These are an important tool for following up and setting objectives, as well as for identifying competence development needs. During 2016, 90% (95%) of all employees – of whom 35% were women and 65% men – had performance reviews.

Castellum cares for its employees and thus works with preventive health care, oers corporate wellness subsidies and provides substantial health insurance for both employees and their immediate families. Wellness programs are oered both for preventive purposes and for the continued well-being of the company's workforce.

A bonus-sharing program provides employees with the opportunity to benefit from their respective region's financial performance improvement.

Once a year – on Castellum Day – all employees in the Castellum Group meet to increase competences, share experiences and strengthen Group spirit.

Education

Employee turnover

Castellum oers full possibilities for professional and personal development through internal and external training. Employees continuously receive training adapted to their respective tasks. New employees also undergo continuous training in sustainability issues.

In 2016, Castellum arranged a Management Day for all management and employees in key positions to lift issues and provide an opportunity for networking across regions.

A health and safety training course was conducted for all Castellum employees in 2016, with the aim of highlighting health and safety issues across the entire Group.

Committed employees

Employee viewpoints about Castellum are monitored regularly in a Satisfied Employees Index, surveying attitudes toward their own working situation, the company and management. The latest survey resulted in an index of 85 on a scale of 100. This can be compared with an industry benchmark of 72. High results are shown for the fields of leadership, competence development and loyalty. The response rate was 97%, demonstrating deep commitment.

Results of employee surveys are important for further development of the company and its employees.

In November 2016, an employee survey was conducted with focus on the transformation process carried out during the year. The purpose of the survey was to evaluate how the transformation process was received, but also to determine benefits from a learning-organization perspective. The survey shows that a high proportion of employees are committed and supportive of the change and retain a deep understanding of why the change was implemented: to result in a stronger company with improved structures for cooperation and exchange of experience.

The customary employee survey will be conducted again in 2017.

Ecient and e ective use of resources

FILIP ELLAND HEAD OF SUSTAINABILITY CASTELLUM AB

"Human impact puts pressure on our planetary limits as never before; that's bad news. Meanwhile, we're the first generation on earth who, thanks to science, is aware of our impact and the adjustments required if we're to succeed in saving the planet. World leaders have agreed on a tough agenda for the world, both in the form of a global climate agreement and the UN global goals for sustainable development: Conditions for conversion to a sustainable world.

Hence, Castellum has a greater responsibility than ever when developing cities. We know that building cities takes time and that the decisions we make today will have a huge impact on the future. That's why Castellum has to think a generation ahead when developing our properties.

We need to understand how people want to work and live in the future, to eectively create smart buildings. Buildings account for a very large part of material use in society and for about 40% of society's energy consumption.

A responsible utilization of resources is therefore something we always keep in mind. Today, Castellum has come a long way on this journey but there's still great potential ahead, now that we're laying out our direction for the next 10 years."

Resources are to be used eciently and eectively and the real estate portfolio will develop sustainably, to reduce Castellum's climate impact – work that has been carried out in the Group since the mid-1990s, with positive results.

To secure Castellum's real estate portfolio for the future and to reach Castellum's prioritized global objectives, we have to make our buildings even more energy-ecient. We need to take responsibility for natural resources and biodiversity, as well as increasing the proportion of renewable energy we utilize. Changing weather conditions have to be taken into account.

Castellum is committed to the climate strategies of customers and authorities. The company stands solidly behind international agreements (such as the Paris Agreement), shows leadership and – to every possible extent – influences industry to become more climate-friendly. Moreover, Castellum was the first Swedish real estate company to join the government's Fossil Free Sweden initiative. The company also works actively with the Sweden Green Building Council to develop environmental certification systems for buildings.

Improve energy eciency

Castellum works continuously to reduce energy consumption by optimizing operations and investing in energy-ecient technologies. In 2016, over 92 major energy eciency projects were undertaken. Castellum follows up and analyzes all energy con sumption via a monitoring system. These close follow-ups mean that eective measures can be targeted to areas with the greatest eciency potential.

Expansion is underway for Castellum's own portal for web-based property monitoring, to check values for operations, alarms, elevators and entries. This project is saving energy and time, and it provides customer benefits in terms of better services through preventive measures. Today, 266 properties – representing 1,746 thousand sq. m. – are connected to the portal.

In 2016, the normalized energy consumption for heating and property electricity in the comparable portfolio (like for like) increased by 2% compared with the previous year. The increase is partly due to increased service demands from a number of tenants and degree-day correction that aects the heat use very negative. The use of energy for heating increased 2,7% during 2016 and the electricity consumption decreased 2.3%.

Since 2007, energy consumption has decreased by a total of 26% per sq. m. Castellum's heating consumption of 74.9 kWh/sq. m. can be compared with the industry average for heating commercial premises: 122 kWh/sq. m.

Increased share of renewable fuels

Out of Castellum's total carbon dioxide emissions, 7% are directly influenced by oil, gas, and service-, benefit- and pool cars (Scope 1). Remaining emissions can only be influenced indirectly, i.e. purchased energy such as district heating and electricity, 90% (Scope 2), and travels by plane, train and taxi, 3% (Scope 3).

To reduce emissions, work is underway to phase out fossil fuels: There are currently 6 oil furnaces still in use. Geothermal heating/cooling is installed in 29 properties of 145 thousand sq. m. Approx. 17% of Castellum's customers are respon-

sible for their own heating and 22% for electricity on their premises. A total of 454 kW of solar cells are installed on Castellum properties, corresponding to a total of approx. 3,200 sq. m. of solar cells. In addition, there are two wind turbines on roofs, totalling 3 kW.

As a user of district heating, Castellum is dependent on the district-heating plant's fuel mix when it comes to emissions of carbon dioxide. Today, Castellum makes use of 28 district-heating facilities, accounting for to 90% of the Group's total carbon dioxide emissions. Castellum conducts ongoing dialogues with the district-heating suppliers who account for the highest emissions per kWh, with the purpose of influencing these suppliers to reduce emissions. The transfer to green district heating with renewable fuels is ongoing and currently amounts to 43% of our districtheating suppliers.

During 2016, carbon dioxide emissions decreased by 49% per sq. m. and since 2007 they have decreased by 71% per sq. m. The large decrease in 2016 is due to the possibility of increasing the proportion of non-fossil district heating mainly in the Central Region. Of Castellum's total energy use, 96% is renewable.

Since 2001, only green electricity has been used in the Group.

Almost all of Castellum's servers are now virtual. A virtual server means that a physical server has been replaced by software, which reduces energy consumption.

Reduced amount of waste

For a long time, Castellum has actively worked on reducing the amount of waste that goes to landfill by providing recycling services. Follow-up is dicult since Castellum hires several sanitation

companies, and only a few oer weight-monitoring. In addition, customer operations dier – as do their needs for waste disposal. Statistics are currently obtainable from 22% (15%) of the sanitation companies.

The statistics include waste from buildings managed by Castellum, but not waste from projects/contracts.

Water consumption

Water consumption is an important issue from a global perspective, but currently of less importance in Sweden. Castellum utilizes water from the municipal water system, monitors consumption and takes measures to reduce it.

During 2014, Castellum adopted a target implying that water consumption should be reduced by 5% per sq. m. by 2017, compared with 2013. Outcome to date 2016 was -2% per sq. m.

Well-located areas where Sweden is growing

The Central Region consists of Örebro, Västerås, Uppsala, Växjö, Jönköping, Norrköping and Linköping. These are well-located areas, featuring good transport links and thriving commerce, in Mälardalen – what has been called the fourth metropolitan region in Eastern Götaland – and two university cities in Småland.

Rental market

Örebro

Rental markets in the seven cities of the Central Region generally showed stable to positive development during the year, although with some variation between and within the cities.

Demand for premises in Örebro, Västerås and Uppsala was stable or high in 2016, with the exception of retail. Modern oces in prime locations showed strongest demand, leading to rising market rents and falling vacancies. The development was the same for all three cities, but strongest in Uppsala. Uppsala had the greatest new construction rate of all cities in Mälardalen and it is also here that the vacancy rate was the lowest.

Regarding the warehouse and logistics market, Örebro continued to consolidate its position as a leading logistics centre with several ongoing major projects. The rental level for warehouse/ logistics was stable throughout Mälardalen and the same applied to vacancies.

The market situation in Jönköping, Linköping and Norrköping was positive in 2016. In Jönköping, there is ongoing new construction of several oce buildings, and a number of new oce premises in central locations are planned. As for Linköping and Norrköping, major urban development for each city is connected to the new infrastructure around the East Link, which is not yet fully completed. Hence, there is some cautiousness concerning new projects in central locations.

Linköping's oce market was stable, with strong demand for oce space and limited new construction.

Norrköping demonstrated strong demand for modern oces in central locations. Generally, the central portfolio is older and requires some level of reconstruction to attract tenants.

The warehouse and logistics market remained strong with low vacancy rates and stable rental levels in Jönköping, Linköping, Norrköping and Växjö.

Real estate market

In 2016, the total transaction volume in the Central Region amounted to approx. SEK 12 billion (8). The region's turnover corresponds to about 6% of the total transaction volume in Sweden.

In the region, there were a few sales of properties that were part of larger portfolios and these also included cities outside the region. The largest individual sales in the region were two retail properties in Västerås of approx. SEKm 850, two retail properties in Norrköping of about SEKm 526 and one oce building in Dragarbrunn, Uppsala, of about SEKm 436.

The buyer side consisted mainly of Swedish real estate companies and mutual funds, but also a number of foreign buyers. An increase in value was recorded for the region during the year, but with variation due to location, property type and quality. The increase in value was most obvious regarding central oce buildings. In the cities of the Central Region, the yield for oce space in prime locations generally was about 5.5%, with the exception of Uppsala, where the yield was approx. 5%.

SOME QUESTIONS FOR: CLAES LARSSON MANAGING DIRECTOR OF CASTELLUM'S CENTR AL REGION

What's been important for the Central Region in 2016? Despite a high internal rate of change within the Group, we've managed to maintain a high tempo. We've launched several major new construction, extension and reconstruction projects and made decisions on several others that we hope to launch in 2017. According to our customer survey, our customers are rather happy, on balance – and net leasing was on the plus side, big time. In all: We're focusing forward and I'm proud of our employee e¢orts.

What are you looking forward to in 2017?

Our vision is to be one of the largest real estate companies, while remaining equipped to act as close to the market as the smallest. This means that customers will be close to us and our decisions, that we invest locally and are involved in building the city, and that our employees have the necessary authority to keep a full focus forward. 2017 will also be a year of rapid change, but we promise to maintain a high tempo and full activity.

THE WESTERN REGION

High growth and major infrastructure investments

The Gothenburg region, well-situated between three capital cities and featuring the largest port in Scandinavia, is in the midst of a development phase driven by huge investments in research and product development. Meanwhile, plans have been made for construction and infrastructure investments of SEK 800–1,000 billion by the year 2035. During this time, the population is expected to grow by about 250,000 inhabitants.

Rental market

Central Gothenburg saw strong growth in the rental market in 2016, driven by limited supply and continued strong demand due to, for example, relatively low unemployment.

Rental levels for office space in the most central locations rose to well above SEK 3,000/ sq. m. during the year. Even in the rest of Greater Gothenburg, office rents generally increased. However, rental increases for warehouse and industrial properties in Greater Gothenburg were more limited with generally stable levels.

Vacancies for new premises in the central parts of Gothenburg were very low. In turn, the current supply restriction in central locations have had a positive impact on areas just outside the city centre, with rising rents and fewer vacancies as a result here, as well. Lindholmen continued to strengthen its role as one of Gothenburg's most attractive office areas with a well-developed infrastructure.

Rental levels in Borås and Halmstad were positive during the year, although with a slightly lower rate of increase than in Greater Gothenburg.

Gothenburg, stretching to Borås, continued to consolidate a position as one of Sweden's leading logistics hubs, and both cities plan for extensive new construction of warehouse and logistics premises.

These will be built on land with approved local plans.

The rental market for retail space has generally been stable during the year; however, some caution was seen as the market becomes increasingly affected by rising e-commerce.

Real estate market

The transaction volume in Greater Gothenburg amounted to about SEK 18 (9) billion. Turnover constitutes approx. 9% of Sweden's total transaction volume. The largest single commercial transaction consisted of a warehouse/industry portfolio in Gothenburg, sold by Volvo for SEKm 2,800. The largest office transaction was the sale of two properties in Gårda for SEKm 1,177. In Borås, the largest single transaction amounted to about SEKm 200 and related to an office building, and in Halmstad the transaction was approx. SEKm 475 and included four properties.

As previously, the buyers were mainly mutual funds and Swedish real estate companies, both listed and unlisted. During the year, yields for the region generally continued downward, resulting in an increase in value. This development was especially obvious in the central parts of Gothenburg where the yield for office space in prime locations moved down to 4.0%.

CECILIA FASTH MANAGING DIRECTOR OF CASTELLUM'S WESTERN REGION

What's been important for the Western Region in 2016? We've grown considerably after consolidating our previous two companies and forming the Western Region. It's been fun and exciting to gather all employees in one office with common objectives.

We've worked actively to increase our project volume and we're proud to have started several new projects and handed over a number of completed sustainable projects. Both to existing customers as well as to new customers who are expanding.

We have a wonderful commitment to social sustainability among co-workers, and in the autumn, we initiated our cooperation with a new grade seven class from Brunnsboskolan.

What are you looking forward to in 2017?

We're working to launch several new construction projects and major renovations – and prospects are looking great. We cooperate with many customers to help them expand. To finally see our property on Östra Hamngatan in Gothenburg complete with a whole new façade will be the kick-off for a major revamping of Nordstan – started together with the municipality and other real estate owners.

In Borås, we're changing parts of the city centre, as more tenants move in and add new life to the urban environment. Parallel to all this, we're actively involved in several local plans, where the development of Halmstad University is especially exciting.

THE ÖRESUND REGION

The largest Nordic region across borders

More than a quarter of Sweden's and Denmark's total GDP is produced in the Öresund Region – the largest labour market in the Nordic countries. Infrastructure investments characterize the region, and every day 96,000 people travel over the Öresund Bridge. Here, 17 Danish and Swedish universities are found, and the region boasts the largest concentration of university graduates in Northern Europe.

Rental market

Malmö

In Malmö, a relatively large proportion of new oce space has been added to the market in recent years, although the pace of construction has declined recently. Malmö is characterized both by great relocation and by customer demand for modern oce space. Vacancies remained stable in the central business district, while the older real estate portfolio was more negatively aected. For warehouse/industrial properties, the demand for modern and ecient facilities remained fairly stable: Here, Fosie belonged to the strongest and most attractive districts, whereas Bulltofta saw increased vacancies.

In 2016, the market in Lund, one of Sweden's leading research and development cities, was stable to slightly positive in many areas relating to oces. However, the relatively high vacancy rate, in combination with possible cutbacks at Sony Mobile, could exacerbate the situation. For warehouse/industrial properties in Lund, the rental market was relatively prosperous in some areas, whereas, for example, the southern industrial areas had relatively high vacancy rates.

Newly built oce space entered the Helsingborg market for the first time in many years, complementing an older oce stock. Nonetheless, rents in prime locations rose during the year.

Copenhagen experienced a strong demand for prime properties and, as the prices in central locations slowly improved, demand in secondary areas also strengthened. However, the availability of numerous construction rights dampened demanddriven rent increases. There was also a continued high vacancy rate in the Copenhagen region, especially for older properties, where large investments are often made carrying out conversion and renovation measures.

Real estate market

The transaction volume in the Öresund Region amounted to about SEK 18 (13) billion. Turnover constitutes approx. 9% of Sweden's total transaction volume. In the Copenhagen region, the transaction volume totalled approx. DDK 49 billion in 2016.

The largest single transaction on the Swedish side was Malmö Live, for approx. SEK 1 billion, followed by Castellum's sale of oce and warehouse properties in Malmö and Lund for a value of SEKm 900.

The largest single transaction on the Danish side was Castellum's acquisition of Norrporten's properties. The second largest transaction in Copen hagen was an oce sale of approx. DDK 1.5 billion.

Buyers on both the Swedish and Danish sides were mainly national real estate companies, institutions and, to a lesser degree, foreign buyers. An increase in value was recorded in the region during the year; however, with some variation due to location, property type and quality. The increase in value was highest for central oce properties close to public transport. The yield was about 4.25% for oces in prime locations in Malmö, while approx. 5.00% or slightly lower in Lund and Helsingborg, and 4% or just higher, in Copenhagen.

A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS FOR: OLA ORSMARK MANAGING DIRECTOR OF CASTELLUM'S ÖRESUND REGION

What's been important for the Öresund Region in 2016? 2016 was an incredibly busy year. We conducted a large portfolio relocation and doubled our value through the acquisition of Norrporten. At the same time, we continued being an accommodating business partner for our existing customers and created firm relationships with all new customers. None of this would have been achieved without our employees – their dedication and e£orts.

Is there anything else you'd like to highlight? 2017 is the continuation of the journey we began in 2016. We're already underway with a number of exciting property projects, such as the innovative Eminent property in Hyllie – planned to become the first health-certified building in the Nordic countries.

THE STOCKHOLM REGION

One of the fastest growing cities in Europe

Stockholm is one of the fastest growing cities in Europe. The Swedish capital region is the hub of Swedish economic development and the migration to Stockholm is great – the population is expected to increase by one million people in the next 50 years. Among other things, this will lead to work areas being developed into residential areas. And high employment growth will drive the real estate market.

Rental market

Strong demand and low supply – from a historical perspective 2016 was a record high year for the Stockholm rental market. The average rent for oce space in Stockholm's central business district was approx. SEK 5,200/sq. m., the average for top rents was about SEK 6,000/sq. m. with individual contracts reaching more than SEK 7,000/sq. m.

Increased activity was also noted for community properties, which have become increasingly soughtafter assets due to lack of other investment objects, hardened competition and uncertainty about the future of the market.

The region was still characterized by a clear focus on modern, cost-eective oce space, resulting in several companies streamlining their existing premises or moving away from the inner city to newly constructed oce premises outside the city centre.

Hence, secondary locations saw a fairly high development of rental levels. This process is expected to continue in coming years. Duly noted consequences include that empty premises in the city centre are converted into hotels and retail and that external locations, to where companies relocate, are strengthened.

The recent addition of oce space in the region is not expected to aect either rental or vacancy levels. Demand remained high for warehouse and logistics premises, and no major changes were seen for rental levels or vacancy rates. New

construction was relatively limited, especially in the central business district and the rest of the city centre.

The region's rental market for retail was characterized by change as a result of new constructions (for example, the Mall of Scandinavia) as well as by the refurbishment of several of several shopping centres.

Real estate market

The total transaction volume in Greater Stockholm amounted to SEK 61 billion (52) in 2016. The turnover represents about 31% of the total transaction volume in Sweden.

The single largest transaction was the acquisition of the leasehold property Snäckan 8 in central Stockholm at a purchase price of approx. SEK 2-2.2 billion.

Another transaction that stood out was the acquisition of the Uarda 7 oce building, in Solna, for about SEK 2.1 billion. Yield is estimated at approx. 3.75%. This demonstrates how the lack of investment objects in the Stockholm central business district, where the yield moved down to 3.5%, contributed to the major positive value changes in suburban areas.

The buyer side consisted of listed Swedish real estate companies, institutions and Swedish and foreign mutual funds. Just as before, some of the commercial real estate sales were undertaken for the benefit of future conversion to housing.

QUESTIONS FOR: ANDERS NILSSON MANAGING DIRECTOR OF CASTELLUM'S STOCKHOLM REGION

What's been most important for the Stockholm Region in 2016? An important element in 2016 was that we continued to strengthen our position as city developers in central Stockholm. We're currently involved in the development of several of Stockholm's most exciting transitional areas. At the end of 2016, we also purchased land in Brunna, which creates additional opportunities for warehouse and logistics investments in the Arlanda Region.

What are you looking forward to in 2017?

A continued favourable business climate with yet another prosperous rental year for both new and current properties. I'm also looking forward to our continued eorts, deepening and creating long-term business relationships with our customers. Additionally, we'll continue our active contributions to Stockholm's city development.

THE NORTHERN REGION

The largest labour market in northern Sweden

Sundsvall is the hub of a region with 200,000 inhabitants and constitutes northern Sweden's largest labour market with good communications and a highly developed infrastructure. Gävle is one of Sweden's fastest growing cities with a population expected to exceed 100,000 in 2017. The proximity to the Stockholm Region and Arlanda Airport has a positive impact on Gävle's commercial and industrial life.

WAREHOUSE/ INDUSTRIAL

The oce market in Sundsvall has been marked by the construction of the Sundsvall Bridge, completed in 2014, which led to the emergence of new areas with road access and where the inner city has room to expand towards the sea. Sundsvall is the hub of a region with 200,000 inhabitants and constitutes northern Sweden's largest labour market.

Oce vacancies reduced in central Sundsvall, mainly due to increased demand, but also because several oce spaces in the older buildings are being converted into housing.

The market for smaller oces was relatively strong in Sundsvall, whereas the larger premises take a longer time to fully lease. The vacancy rate was about 5% and is expected to remain unchanged. The relatively unchanged level for oce rents during the past three years in the most central locations is expected to endure.

Commerce in Sundsvall is characterized by strong commercial activity in the outskirts and weaker downtown business as it has become easier for consumers to go to Birsta City after the completion of the Sundsvall Bridge in 2014.

Rental levels in Gävle remained relatively stable during the year. The economy in Gävleborg County is considered to be at a stable level; tending to great variation between dierent industries

where the engineering industry was the worst, while the construction industry experienced a boom.

Real estate market

Total transaction volume in Sundsvall and Gävle amounted to approx. SEK 13 billion (9). The region's turnover corresponds to about 7% of Sweden's total transaction volume.

The single largest transaction was Castellum's Sundsvall sale to Diös, where the Sundsvall properties were valued at SEK 1 billion. In Gävle, the acquisition of three commercial properties in Valbo Köpstad, for approx. SEKm 275, was the largest transaction.

A number of value increases were noted for the region during the year, with variation due to location, property type and quality. The increase in value was most obvious regarding central oce buildings. The yield for oce space in prime locations was 6% or slightly less in Sundsvall, whereas it was 6% or just above in Gävle.

Changes in Castellum's organization

Castellum initiated a process in the beginning of 2017 to reduce the number of regions from five to four. The intention is that the region North will be merged with the region Stockholm.

COMMENTS FROM: JÖRGEN LUNDGREN MANAGING DIRECTOR OF CASTELLUM'S NORTHERN REGION

What's been important for the Northern Region in 2016?

Since Norrporten became part of Castellum, 2016 has been characterized by integration and consolidation activities, which were carried out as planned. We've sold a large part of the portfolio, just as we indicated at the time of acquisition.

Meanwhile, business operations went on at full speed within the organization; for example, we conducted successful leasing e¢orts in the region.

Financing at low risk – a cornerstone of Castellum's strategy

Owning and managing real estate is a capital-intensive business, which requires readily accessible funding. Funding can be carried out utilizing shareholder equity as well as borrowed capital, and the look of a company's capital structure depends on the financial risk that the company and its owners are prepared to take.

Financing

The chosen capital structure is pivotal for the financial returns and risk exposure anticipated by owners. Among the factors that a ect the choice are business risk and tax shield, as well as the risks and costs associated with increased borrowing. As early as the IPO (Initial Public O ering), Castellum established that the company would stand for low financial risk – which is currently expressed in terms of a loan-to-value ratio not permanently exceeding 55% and an interest coverage ratio of at least 200%.

At 31 December 2016, Castellum's assets amounted to SEK 71 billion and the loan-to-value ratio was 50%, while the interest coverage ratio for 2016 was 348%.

Finance policy and monitoring

Paula and Jens

Castellum's financial activities are conducted in accordance with the finance policy established by the Board. These will be conducted in such a way that fulfilling the need for long- and short-term financing and liquidity is ensured. Moreover, low and stable net interest costs will be pursued while taking into account the established risk mandates. Developments in financial markets have a great impact on Castellum. For finance operation purposes, it is therefore important to reflect and support the goals and requirements of the business operations. With the support of the

finance policy, the Group can control and manage financial risks and ensure risk management through close control and monitoring. The financial risks are monitored and reported quarterly to both the Audit and Finance Committee and the Board. The Board annually conducts a review of the finance policy.

Castellum regularly follows up and monitors future funding needs based on assumptions about earnings, net investment volume, property value growth and maturity profile of the existing debt portfolio, covenants in loan agreements and interest-rate risk exposure. Furthermore, the Group carries out sensitivity analyses to understand how changes in the real estate portfolio – as well as movements in market interest rates and property values – a ect the balance sheet and earnings.

Financial strategy

Castellum's financing strategy will support operations and manage the Group's financial risks while promoting an open and transparent climate. The strategy will be reflected in the finance policy established by the Board – all to ensure risk management through close control. Castellum's finance strategy can be summarized in five cornerstones: diversification, liquidity, strength, transparency and flexibility.

Distribution of financing 31-12-2016

CASTELLUM'S FIVE CORNERSTONES ABOUT FUNDING
DIVERSIFICATION Castellum will oversee a diversified loan portfolio and avoid dependence on both individual counterparty and source of
financing. In addition, the maturity of various kinds of funding sources and individual loans will be distributed over time.
Castellum will monitor and follow developments on financial markets, enabling us to act quickly and to match business
requirements.
At year end, Castellum's interest-bearing financing amounted to SEK 38.2 billion, of which SEK 17.0 billion came from capital
market financing (an MTN-program totalling SEK 9.3 billion and a commercial paper program totalling SEK 7.7 billion) corre
sponding to 44%. Remaining financing came from bank financing from major Nordic banks and credit institutes.
At year end, the average maturity of credit agreements amounted to 3.0 years and ranged from 1 month to 13.5 years.
LIQUIDITY Castellum will keep unutilized credit facilities available, in order to respond rapidly to business needs and opportunities that
arise. Moreover, there will be revolving credit facilities for the purpose of reducing the need to invest the surplus.
At year end, Castellum had SEK 53.3 billion in credit agreements, of which SEK 15.0 billion was unutilized.
STRENGTH The Group's financial key ratios will be strong, with a loan-to-value ratio not exceeding 55% and an interest coverage ratio of at
least 200%. The strength of our real estate portfolio is enhanced by the quality of our cash flow as well as by the composition of
our debt and interest rate portfolio.
Castellum is to reduce the risk of sudden negative impact on net financial items – resulting from interest rate changes and/
or the assessment of Castellum as borrower – that cannot be adjusted by opposing e¢ects on income related to business
operations.
The loan-to-value ratio was 50% at year end, while the interest coverage ratio for 2016 was 348%.
TRANSPARENCY Castellum will encourage long-term relationships with both banks and other lenders/investors and aim to be transparent in
order to increase stakeholder understanding of the Group's operations and, consequently, credit exposure.
FLEXIBILITY Castellum is to have flexible financing for the purpose of supporting business developments regarding acquisitions, sales and
project development. Our credit facilities will provide us with high flexibility to withdraw and repay with short notice and at no
extra cost. Furthermore, Castellum is to have access to flexibility, both in terms of pricing (fixed and floating) and maturities.
At year end, Castellum had SEK 36.3 billion in bank agreements, of which SEK 23.0 billion consisted of revolving credit facilities.

"Castellum should enjoy sucient and competitive financing so the Group's activities can be conducted in an e ective and cost-ecient manner."

* Castellum drew up the Green Bond Framework in collaboration with Handelsbanken.

Funding risk

Funding risk refers to the risk that financing is not available or is very unfavourable at a given time. Funding risk itself is by far the Group's largest financial risk. The Group's assets – primarily commercial properties – should be seen as longterm investments, which thereby comply with demands for a long-term approach to real-estate portfolio financing. However, market pricing of credit should also be taken into account.

Castellum should enjoy sucient and competitive financing so the Group's activities can be conducted in an e ective and cost-ecient manner. The funding risk is managed through advance planning, an appropriate credit maturity structure, balanced loan pricing, diversification of funding sources and maturities, and a reasonable liquidity cushion.

At year end, Castellum had credit agreements totalling SEKm 53,259 (30,325), of which long-term agreements amounted to SEKm 40,358 (25,141) and short-term contracts to SEKm 12,901 (5,184).

The acquisition of Norrporten meant a takeover of SEKm 14,172 in credit agreements. Of these, SEKm 5,498 terminated or expired. SEKm 3,269 of the remaining volume were renegotiated and guarantees were concluded for agreements totalling SEKm 6,059. In addition, Castellum added new agreements totalling SEKm 5,300, existing agreements increased by SEKm 1,000, and SEKm 8,150 in credit agreements were renegotiated and extended. Moreover, funding of SEKm 1,069 from the previous joint venture company CORHEI was included in Castellum's interest-bearing financing during the year, SEKm 447 of which expired.

During the year, MTNs totalling SEKm 500 expired and SEKm 3,275 were issued, of which SEKm 1,000 were green MTNs issued under the "Green Bond Framework" drawn up by Castellum.*

¦Issued commitments in credit agreements – called covenants – state a loan-to-value ratio not exceeding 65% and an interest coverage ratio of at least 175%, which Castellum accomplished by a wide margin: 50% and 348%, respectively.

¦Average maturity of Castellum's credit agreements was 3.0 years (3.1).

Interest rate risk

By definition, interest rate risk refers to a potentially negative impact on the income statement and balance sheet caused by a change in market interest rates. To limit fluctuations in net interest costs, Castellum will feature a mix of fixed interest terms on loans and interest rate derivatives. However, as long as the Stibor rate (3 months) is negative, derivatives in the form of interest-rate swaps do not provide a stable cost structure for Castellum when combined with bank credits that have zero as the floor for the Stibor rate. Choice of interest-rate profiles should take into account the in the Group's Business Plan as well as anticipated inflows and outflows.

rapport 2016.

Interest cost is the single largest cost item and has a major impact on growth in income from property management. It is partly a ected by changes in market interest rates, and partly by the margin required by creditors as compensation for lending money. The short-term market interest rate is controlled by the Riksbank, whereas the long-term market interest rate is a ected by other factors such as expectations of future growth and inflation. The credit margin is controlled by supply-anddemand for credit, as well as by regulations in the credit and capital markets. Both interest and credit markets can change rapidly and are outside Castellum's control. Increased market interest rates are generally a result of economic growth and rising inflation. Higher rates, in turn, are presumed to result in increased demand for commercial premises, thereby leading to increased rents and/or reduced vacancies. Falling interest rates are assumed to have opposite causes and e ects. Given this reasoning, rising or falling market interest rates will thus be met by rising or falling rental income, over time. Changes in credit margins may occur regardless of prevailing economic conditions. Recently, they have primarily been a ected by changes in credit and capital market regulations. Changes in market interest rate and credit margins a ect net financial items. How quickly – and by how much – largely depends on the chosen fixed interest term and the binding period of credit margins.

To ensure a low and stable net interest cost, Castellum has chosen to restrict the proportion of fixed maturities due within 6 months at an interval between 20% and 55% of net debt; the average fixed interest term will be between 1 and 3.5 years. The interest coverage ratio is the financial key ratio that describes a company's risk level and resilience to fluctuations in net interest.

Credit and counterparty risk

Credit and counterparty risk is the risk that the counterparty cannot fulfil delivery or payment. In financial operations, credit and counterparty risk arises primarily in connection with long-term credit agreements, derivative contracts and the investment of liquid funds.

¦Castellum limits this risk by requiring high creditworthiness of counterparties; currently, all of them are major Nordic banks.

Currency risk

Currency risk refers to a negative impact on the income statement, balance sheet and cash flow due to changes in exchange rates. Currency risk can be divided into translation exposure and transaction exposure. At year end, Castellum owned properties in Denmark totalling SEKm 5,395 (954), which means that the Group is exposed to currency risk. Currency risk relates mainly to income statements and balance sheets in foreign currencies that are translated into Swedish kronor. As a basic rule, equity is not hedged for translation exposure, while transaction exposure is hedged if exposure in any currency exceeds a counter-value of SEKm 25.

Secured interest-bearing liabilities

Long-term bank facilities are mainly secured with collateral comprising the company's real estate holdings, and commitments also include a number of covenants. Issued MTNs, commercial papers and certain short-term bank loans, such as overdraft credits, are unsecured. Of net interest-bearing liabilities totalling SEKm 38,210 (20,357), SEKm 21,252 (10,460) were secured by mortgage deeds and SEKm 16,958 (9,897) were unsecured. The proportion of utilized secured financing was thus approx. 28% of the property value. Issued commitments in credit agreements state a loan-to-value ratio not exceeding 65% and an interest coverage ratio of at least 175%. Castellum is also to provide lenders with financial information such as annual reports, interim reports and property valuations. In some cases, the banks have the right to renegotiate credit agreements due to a significant change in business direction or discontinued stock exchange listing.

Derivatives Interest rate derivatives

According to the IAS 39 accounting standard, derivatives are subject to market valuation. For interest-rate derivatives, this means that a surplus or a deficit occurs if the stipulated interest rate varies from the current market rate. Castellum accounts for this change in value in the income statement. By extending the fixed interest term, the interest rate risk in terms of cash flow is limited, whereas the risk for accounting-based changes in value is increased. To note: Loans with long-term, fixed interest rates are less flexible but – from an interest rate risk standpoint – comparable to extensions using interest-rate derivatives. These are not subject to market valuation according to current accounting standards.

Currency derivatives

Funding in Danish currency can be achieved by borrowing in Danish kroner or by using currency derivatives. The exposure is the same but derivatives are subject to market valuation, according to the IAS 39 accounting standard. This means that there is a surplus or a deficit if the stipulated currency rate varies from the current exchange rate. Castellum applies hedge accounting according to IAS 39, implying that the e ective portion of value changes is accounted for in other total net income.

Organization

All financial risk management is centralized in the parent company. The internal bank is responsible for the Group's funding, risk management, financing for subsidiaries and cash management. The parent company also includes a back-oce and compliance function, which provides accounting and independent control of financial operations.

CASTELLUM ANNUAL REPORT 2016 DIRECTORS' REPORT 61 Victoria, Fredrik and Christian CASTELLUM ANNUAL REPORT 2016 DIRECTORS' REPORT

FINANCING

Dividend growth for 2016: 18%

Castellum will work for a competitive total return on the company's share relative to risk and will also strive for high liquidity. All actions will be taken from a long-term perspective. The company will provide frequent, open and fair reports to shareholders, to capital and credit markets and to the media – without disclosing any individual business relationship. In the long term, Castellum will be one of the largest listed real estate companies in Sweden.

The Castellum Share

The Castellum share is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm Large Cap. Castellum's market capitalization, i.e. the value of all outstanding shares in Castellum, amounted to SEK 34.1 billion (19.8), as at December 31, 2015. This corresponds to about 13% of the total market capitalization (SEK 256 billion) of Swedish real estate companies operating solely in this sector. The Castellum figure is just under 0.6% of the total market capitalization – approx. SEK 6,115 billion – of listed Swedish companies.

As part of the acquisition of Norrporten, Castellum completed a rights issue as well as a directed share issue.

The rights issue of 82,000,000 new shares, which ended in June, meant that Castellum raised approximately SEK 6.3 billion before deduction of issue costs of about SEKm 123 (SEKm 95 net after deduction of deferred tax). In addition, a total of 27,201,166 Castellum shares constituted part of the consideration for the Norrporten shares, corresponding to a value of SEKm 3,075 at the time of access. Relying on the share-issue authorization from the Extraordinary General Meeting on 20 May 2016, the Castellum Board decided on a directed share issue to the Second and Sixth Swedish National Pension Funds totalling 19,194,458 consideration shares. Pursuant to the authorization from the AGM on 17 March 2016, the Castellum Board also decided to transfer all previously repurchased shares, representing 8,006,708 shares. Castellum's repurchased shares were acquired in year 2000 for a total purchase price of SEKm 194.

After the rights and directed share issues, the number of outstanding Castellum shares totals 273,201,166.

During 2015, a total of 285 million (188) shares were traded, equivalent to an average of 780,000 shares (751,000), per day, corresponding on an annual basis to a turnover rate of 103% (114%). The share turnover is based on statistics from Nasdaq, Chi-X, Burgundy, Turquoise and BATS Europe.

Proposed dividend

The Board of Directors will propose a dividend of SEK 5.00 per share to the Annual General Meeting, representing an increase of 18% compared to previous year. The payment is proposed to be distributed to yhe shareholders in two equal payments. The dividend ratio amounts to 57%, based on income from property management before tax.

If the Annual General Meeting approves the Board's proposal, the record date for the first payout will be Monday, March 27, 2017. This means that the final day for trading shares including dividend is Thursday, March 23, 2017. Record date for the second payout is Monday, September 25, 2017, meaning that the final day for trading shares including dividend is Thursday, September 21, 2017. The first payout is estimated to take place on Thursday, March 30, 2017, and the second payout is estimated for Thursday, September 28, 2017.

The dividend falls within Castellum's objective of distributing at least 50% of income from property management, having taken into account investment plans, consolidation needs, liquidity and financial position in general. Unrealized changes in value, positive or negative, are thus not included in the distributable income.

WHY IS CASTELLUM INTERESTING FOR THE INVESTOR?

Castellum is one of Sweden's largest real estate companies, with a long-term approach to strategy, property-value growth, income from property management and dividends.

• STABLE GROWTH SINCE THE IPO IN 1997

Since 1997, Castellum has enjoyed property-management income growth of 10% per year in SEK/share. Add to that: an annual dividend that constituted an average of 52% of income from property management.

• STRONG BALANCE SHEET AND LOW FINANCIAL RISK

Castellum's goal is that the loan-to-value ratio should not permanently exceed 55%. At year end 2016, it amounted to 50%. The goal for interest coverage ratio is at least 200%. At the end of 2016, it totalled 348%.

• WELL DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO

The focus is on commercial properties with a contract portfolio of approx. 6,000 customers from a variety of business categories that reflect Swedish and Danish business life. Hence, risk diversification is broad, and the single largest contract corresponds to approx. 2%.

• LOCAL BUSINESS OPERATIONS WITH SUSTABILITY FOCUS Castellum is present in 17 growth areas in Sweden and in Copenhagen,

which all have their own local organizations for rental, service and management. The corporation's active sustainability e¢orts have been acknowledged with several prestigious awards and certificates.

• CREDIBILITY THROUGH TRANSPARENCY

Castellum's ambition is to provide updated and accurate information about company development. The information is to be fully adequate for investment decisions concerning company shares. The company's Annual Report for 2015 was awarded Best Annual Report among Swedish companies listed on NASDAQ Stockholm, Large Cap.

5.00

The Board intends to propose to the Annual General Meeting to approve a dividend of SEK 5.00 per share, an increase of 18% compared with previous year.

"Since 1997, Castellum's share has been listed on Nasdaq Stockholm Large Cap under the name CAST."

23.8%

During 2016, the total yield of the share, including dividend of SEK 4.25, was 23.8%.

equity Castellum want to a create stable return and growth at a low level of financial risk. 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 e¢ective tax is lower than the reported nominal tax rate, in part due to the possibility to sell properties in a tax e¨cient way, and in part due to the time factor for which the tax should be discounted.

Long term net asset value (EPRA NAV) can be calculated to SEK 133 per share (112). The share price at the end of the year was thus 94% (94%) of the long term net asset value.

* Estimated real deferred tax liability net has been calculated to 5% based on a discount rate of 3%. Further, assessments have been made that tax loss carry forwards are realized in 2 years with a nominal tax of 22%, giving a present value of deferred tax liability of 21%, and that the properties are realized in 50 years where 33% are sold directly with a nominal tax of 22% and that 67% are sold indirect through company disposals where the buyers tax discount is 6%, which gives a present value of deferred tax liability of 4%. Furthermore, deferred tax assets attributable to non-deductible losses in the derivatives portfolio have been valued at a nominal tax of 22%.

Earnings

In 2016, income from property management per share adjusted for nominal tax attributable to income from property management (EPRA EPS) amounted to SEK 8.26 (7.84). This results in a share price yield of 6.6% (7.5%), corresponding to a multiple of 15 (13). Income from property management should be adjusted for increase in value in the long-term real estate holdings as well as for e¢ective tax paid.

Earnings after tax per share amounted to SEK 21.20 (15,24) in 2016. Based on the share price, this provides a return of 17.0% (14.6%) corresponding to a P/E of 6 (7).

Total yield

Total yield reflects the development of the share price plus dividend paid during the period.

The Castellum share price as at 31 December, 2016 was SEK 124.90 (104.73) corresponding to a market capitalization of SEK 34.1 billion (19.8). During 2016, the total yield of the share, including dividend of SEK 4.25, was 23.8% (2.3%).

Dividend yield

Dividend yield is the company's dividend divided by the current share price. It represents the yield shareholders receive in cash every year following the AGM's decision. The key ratio thus expresses the relationship between two di¢erent "spheres": Castellum's performance in the form of dividends and the stock market's pricing of the company.

The valuation thus reflects the market's view of the dividend yield required to achieve a total

The Castellum share's price trend and turnover from Listed Real Estate Companies IPO May 23, 1997 until December 31, 2016

yield that matches the market's yield on the Castellum share.

The proposed dividend of SEK 5.00 (4.25) corresponds to a yield of 4.0% (4.1%) ased on the share price at the end of the year.

Net asset yield and result including long-term change in value

In companies managing real assets, such as real estate, the income from property management only reflects part – albeit a large part – of the overall result. The definition of a real asset is that the value is protected. This means that over time – and with proper maintenance – the real asset increases in value to compensate for inflation.

The net asset value – i.e., the denominator of the yield ratio income/capital – is adjusted annually in accordance with IFRS regulations for changes in value. In order to provide an accurate yield figure, the numerator – i.e., income – must be similarly adjusted. Therefore, the recorded net income has to be supplemented with a component of value changes as well as with e¢ective tax to provide an accurate view of income and yield.

One problem is that changes in value can vary greatly between years and quarters, thus leading to volatile results. However, by being a long-term player with stable cash flow and a balanced real estate portfolio, Castellum is able to make use of long-term value changes to adjust the numerator of the equation.

Created shareholder value

At the IPO in May 1997, Castellum's real estate portfolio amounted to approx. SEK 10 billion, income from property management to approx. SEKm 300 and shareholders' equity to about SEK 4 billion. Since then, Castellum has created shareholder value by increasing shareholder's equity to SEK 36 billion as at December 31, 2016. The real estate portfolio has grown over the same period to approx. SEK 71 billion at the end of 2016, while income from property management has increased to SEKm 2,065.

Valuation

The investor's required yield for a given share forms a basis for valuation in the long term. The required yield varies from share to share, as well as over time. This is partly due to the risk the investor perceives for a particular company; a risk that he wants to be compensated for. The higher the risk, the higher the required yield. An acceptable share price therefore derives from the investor's – or rather the investor collective's – assessment of the future total yield of the share (the sum of dividend yields and changes in value) and the level of risk.

In the short run, it is largely supply and demand for shares that a¢ects share-price movements and sets current share prices. Factors a¢ecting price in the short term – apart from investor assessments of the long-term yield of the share – include industry outlook, macro assessments, geopolitical events, allocation aspects, potential yield on alternative investments, and regulations. However, looking over the long term, it is the company's actual performance in terms of total yield and growth that determines crucial for share-price development.

As shown in the table on the left, Castellum has achieved a total average yield of 8.5% per year, over the past 10 years, of which dividend yield accounts for about 4% and share price development around 4.5%. All to a moderate risk level compared to the Swedish real estate market. The average dividend growth for the same period amounted to 7% per year.

Shareholders

At the end of the period the company had about 30,000 shareholders. The amount of shares regis"Some twenty Swedish and foreign stock market analysts track the development of both Castellum and the Swedish real estate sector. "

Average dividend growth for the Castellum share has amounted to 7% per year during the last 10 years.

PROPERTY VALUATION

A property portfolio valued at SEKm 70,757

On December 31st, 2016 Castellum's investment properties were assessed a fair value of SEKm 70,757 corresponding to SEK 16,558 per sq.m. The average valuation yield for Castellum's real estate portfolio, excluding development projects, undeveloped land and building rights can be calculated to 5.8%.

The valuation was carried out in a uniform manner using internal valuation based on a 10-year cash flow model with individual assessments for each property. This was to reflect both future earnings capacity and required market yield. In order to provide further assurance and validation of the valuation, 180 properties – representing 57% of the value of the portfolio – have been valued externally.

Property valuation

Internal valuation

Castellum records the investment properties at fair value and has made an internal valuation of all properties as of December 31, 2016. The valuation was carried out in a uniform manner, and was based on a 10-year cash flow model, which is described in principle below. The internal valuation was based on an individual assessment for each property and reflects both its future earnings capacity and its required market yield. In the valuation of a property's future earnings capacity, consideration has been taken of potential changes in rental levels, occupancy rates and property costs – as well as an assumed inflation level of 1.5%. Projects in progress have been valued using the same principle, but with deductions for remaining investments. Building rights have been valued on the basis of an estimated market value per square metre, on average approx. SEK 1,700 per sq.m. (1,700). For further information about the assumptions in cash-flow and required yield see note 12.

Example internal valuation

To illustrate the model, the following example is provided. It should be noted that assumptions regarding cash flow growth and other assumptions included in the model are only intended to illustrate the model. Even if relevant figures are used 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 96% in the year 2021.
  • Net operating income for 2016 is based on actual 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 1.5% per year during the calculation period.
  • The average economic life of the real estate portfolio has been assumed to be 50 years.
  • Projects, undeveloped land and building rights have an assumed value SEKm 3,200.
  • The required yield, discount factor, is calculated according to the following assumptions:
Percentage Weighted
Required yield of capital required yield
Equity 7.5% – 15.3% 40% 3.0% – 6.1%
Borrowed capital 5.0% 60% 3.0%

Uncertainty range

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 in a normal market, should therefore be seen as an indication of the uncertainty that exists in assumptions and calculations. In a market with lower liquidity, the range may be wider. For Castellum, an uncertainty range of +/– 5% means a range in value of the property portfolio of SEKm 67,219 – 74,295 corresponding to +/– SEKm 3,538.

Changes in value

In 2016, the real estate market was characterized by high activity, high demand and limited supply, resulting in rising prices. The price increase was mainly attributable to centrally located oce properties in growth areas, properties with longterm leases and well-located warehouse and logistics properties. This price rise is reflected in Castellum's internal valuation through lower required yield, which at portfolio level corresponds to approximately 27 points. This, primarily in combination with project profits and improved cash flow results, resulted in a change in value for the year of SEKm 3,793, corre-sponding to 6%. Norrporten's change in value of SEKm 638 – or 3% – for the first six months, is included in the purchase price allocation (PPA) and therefore does not aect Castellum's income. Moreover, 80 properties were sold for SEKm 6,754 after deduction for assessed deferred tax and transaction costs totalling SEKm 233. The underlying property value – thus amounting to SEKm 6,986 – exceeded the latest valuation of SEKm 6,461 by SEKm 525. As each property is valued individually, the portfolio premium that can be noted in the property market is not taken into account.

The net increase in value, including this years change, over the past 10 years has been 1.3% per year, which is well in line with inflation.

Total yield

Concerning the total yield of the properties – i.e., the sum of yields and changes in value – it can be noted that Castellum's performance depends on when measurements were started.

The annual average total yield on warehouse/ industrial for the past 10 years has been 7.4% (6.8% yield + 0,6% change in value), thereby surpassing oce/retail which has had 6.8% (5.8% yield + 1.0% change in value). During 2016 oce/ retail has had a better total yield corresponding to 11.5%, compared to 8.7% for warehouse/industrial. Calculations do not include project gains or acquisitions from the year the acquisition was completed.

External valuation

In order to provide further assurance and validation of the valuation, 180 properties – representing 57% of the value of the portfolio – have been valued externally by Forum Fastighetsekonomi AB in Sweden and CBRE and Cushman & Wakefield in Denmark. The properties were selected on the basis of the largest properties in terms of value, but they also reflect the composition of the port-folio as a whole in terms of category and geographical location of the properties. The external valuations of the selected properties amounted to SEKm 41,180, within an uncertainty range of +/– 5–10% on property level, depending on each property's category and location. Castellum's valuation of the same properties totalled SEKm 40,642, i. e., a net deviation of SEKm 538, corresponding to –1%. The gross deviation was

SEKm +1,563 and SEKm – 1,025 respectively, with an average deviation of 6%.

In addition, Cushman & Wakefield made a desk-top valuation of 54 properties corresponding in value to 27% of the portfolio. Cushman & Wakefield's valuation of the selected properties amounted to SEKm 18,229. Castellum's valuation of the same properties amounted to SEKm 19,088, i.e. a net deviation of SEKm – 859 corresponding to – 5%. The other external valuations of the same properties amounted to SEKm 19,382, i.e. en net deviation of SEKm +294 corresponding to 2% compared to Castellum's valuation.

It can be noted that Castellum's deviation from the external valuers accommodated well within the uncertainty range of +/– 5–10%.

Tax

Castellum will provide financial reporting which is permeated with openness and transparency. This also applies to the handling and accounting of taxes, an issue of such importance to the real estate industry. The Group's main approach is that correct tax will be paid in compliance with prevailing regulations.

At Castellum, there are a number of areas that are taxed: income tax on current earnings, property tax, VAT, stamp duty and energy taxes. Political decisions – such as changes in corporate taxation, tax legislation and interpretations – may lead to changes in Castellum's tax situation. These could be both positive and negative.

Income tax

Castellum's reported income from property management for 2016 amounted to SEKm 2,065 (1,533), while taxable income from property management amounted to SEKm 580 (236). In the absence of tax loss carry forwards, a paid tax of SEKm 128 (52) would occur, attributable to the income from property management, equivalent to 6% eective tax paid.

Tax depreciations

Investments in real estate can be allocated to dierent parts where the Swedish Tax Authority specifies percentages for tax depreciations: Buildings (2-5% depending on type of property), land improvements 5% and inventories 20% or 30%. Land is not depreciated.

Tax deductible reconstructions

Costs for repairs and maintenance of a building may be deducted immediately. The "extended repair concept" allows for direct deduction for certain types of value-adding improvements, even if they are capitalized in the accounts.

Property sales

Properties can be sold directly or indirectly through companies, which have dierent tax consequences. Profit on properties that fiscally represent fixed assets is taxable, while a loss is put in a "fold"and can only be netted against profits within the Group from direct sales of properties that represents fixed assets. Profit on sales of shares which from a taxation point of view are considered fixed assets is not taxable, while a loss is not tax deductible.

For properties or shares which fiscally represent current assets a profit is always taxable while a loss is tax deductible.

Changes in value on properties and derivatives

Swedish accounting laws do not allow reporting of properties at fair value in a legal entity, meaning that changes in value are reported only in the consolidated accounts and hence do not aect taxation. Some financial instruments such as interest rate derivatives may be reported at fair value in legal entities. For Castellum, changes in value resulting in a negative value on the instrument constitute a tax deductable cost and changes in value up to acquisition value of the instrument are considered a taxable income. Castellum has no current tax disputes.

Deferred tax on the balance sheet

Castellum has two entries which make up the basis for deferred tax – properties and tax loss carry forwards. All tax loss carry forwards are

Deferred tax is in principle both interest free and amortization free and can therefore be considered as shareholder equity. The real deferred tax is lower than nominal partly due to the possibility of selling properties in a tax-ecient way, partly due to the time factor which means that the tax will be discounted.

Estimated real deferred tax liability net has been calculated to 5% based on a discount rate of 3%. Further, assessments have been made that tax loss carry forwards are realized in 2 years with a nominal tax of 22%, giving a present value of deferred tax liability of 21%, and that the properties are realized in over 50 years where 33% are sold directly with a nominal tax of 22% and that 67% are sold indirectly through company disposals where the buyers tax discount is 6%. This provides a present value for deferred tax liability of 6%.

reported since expected future taxable income may be used to net the tax loss carry forwards. Deferred tax deriving from properties occurs mainly due to changes in value, tax deductions such as depreciation and deduction of certain reconstructions, which are capitalized in the account.

Property tax

Property tax is paid for almost all the Group's properties. However, there is tax exemption for special buildings such as communication buildings, educational and healthcare buildings. For other properties, the tax rate set by the Swedish Tax Agency depends on the type of building and site. Tax is 1% of the assessed value for oces and 0.5% for industrial and warehouse buildings. In Denmark, tax rates vary depending on in which municipality the properties are located. Property taxes for 2016 amounted to SEKm 262 (172) , based on an assessed value of SEK 33 billion.

Value added tax (VAT)

Real estate is exempt from compulsory VAT duty. If a premise is leased to a customer who runs a permanent VAT-liable business, the real estate owner can voluntarily register for VAT and thus get to deduct input VAT on both operating expenses and investments. Hence no deductions can be made for input VAT attributable to operating expenses and investments in premises not registered for voluntary tax liability. Non-deductible VAT on operating expenses for 2016 was SEKm 18 and is reported as an operating expense. Non-deductible VAT on investments for 2016 was SEKm 13 and is reported as investment in real estate.

Stamp duty

Upon acquisition of real estate in Sweden there is a stamp duty (title deed) of 4.25%, calculated on the higher value of either purchase price or assessed value. In Denmark, the equivalent tax is 0.6%. In 2016, SEKm 72 stamp duty was paid for acquisitions, as part of the acquisition value. There is also an additional stamp duty (pledging cost) of 2% (1.5% in Denmark) for mortgage deeds in real estate. In 2016, this tax totalled SEKm 67 and is capitalized in the balance sheet.

Energy taxes

Castellum purchases energy to use for heating, cooling, ventilation and lighting in the buildings. SEKm 28 of that sum involves energy taxes.

Employees

Employers in Sweden pay 31.42% in social-security contributions based on salary and a payroll tax of 24.26% on pension contributions. Castellum has 408 employees for whom SEKm 86 was paid in social-security contributions and payroll taxes.

Summary tax

In 2016, Castellum's operations generated a total of SEKm 569 in various taxes.

Owning and managing properties means that operations are exposed to a variety of risks, both internal and external – or to uncertainties that may aect the Group's ability to achieve objectives. Castellum therefore works with a regular and structured process to identify and actively monitor the full range of financial and non-financial risks that the Group encounters or has to take on. The Group's risk management involves a structured process of decision-making with the aim of establishing a balance between the desire to limit uncertainty or risk and the task of generating growth and shareholder value.

Risk and risk management

Risks, exposure and risk management

Castellum defines risk as an uncertainty factor that may aect the ability to achieve company goals. Risk management involves a structured decision-making process with the aim of balancing the desire to limit uncertainty with achieving the objective. In order to assess the eect of identified risks, an internal risk rating is carried out where each risk is assessed, both from the perspective of impact and probability. This process determines whether the risk should be further monitored (Monitor), corrected (Focus) or handled through the standard review and management (Review).

To facilitate risk management, Castellum has chosen to classify risks into the following categories:

  • External environment risks due to the influence of external factors and events
  • The real estate portfolio risks associated with the ownership of Castellum's real estate portfolio
  • Employees risks associated with recruiting, training and retaining engaged and competent employees
  • Management risks associated with everyday management of Castellum's real estate holdings
  • Financing Castellum's financing risks

MACROECONOMIC RISKS PRIORITY: FOCUS DEVELOPMENT:
1. Macro – crisis
Macroeconomic risks are risks associated with
a general reduction in demand in the economy,
low inflation, deflation or situations which entail
general di¦culties in obtaining financing – or
funding at higher credit margins.
• Monitor world events
• Strong balance sheet and low loan to value ratio
• Well-composed contract portfolio with a wide
spread regarding notice of termination, type
of business, type of facility, contract size and
geographical location
• Deflation protection or a minimum upward
adjustment of leases
• Multiple sources of funding
• Frequent renegotiations/new credit agreements
• Property portfolio focused to growth areas
• Natural macroeconomic hedging mechanism
for higher/lower interest costs and rental
income, but with some time delay
A weak economy aªects the demand for
premises negatively, leading to increased
vacancies, falling market rents and loss of
indexation for existing leases. In addition, the
risk of payment problems, or even bankruptcies,
among tenants increases, resulting in immediate
negative eªects on cash flow.
Limited access to funding reduces Castellum's
possibility to operate. Ultimately, reduced
demand in the economy leads to declining
property values.
C RI S E S PRIORITY: MONITOR DEVELOPMENT:
2. Crises
Crises may include such events as terrorist
attacks, cyber-attacks, extreme weather and
environmental disaster, and information leakage.
• Crisis plan
• Succession-planning for senior executives
• Full value insurance properties
• Guidelines for information security: create user
understanding and awareness of information as
an asset to be handled with care.
• Continuity plan IT
The risk is generally low, but Castellum could
become indirectly aªected by external factors
and events.
CHANGES IN LEGISLATION PRIORITY: FOCUS DEVELOPMENT:
3. Changes in legislation
Changes in legislation or regulations, whether
national or international, can aªect Castellum.
For example, tax law changes, new regulations for
banks, plan process management etc.
• Monitor developments regarding laws, regula
tions, praxis etc., within areas most essential to
Castellum.
• Actively participate in public debate
• Prepare Castellum for new legislation
• Frequent renegotiation of credit agreements
• Broaden the funding base through multiple
sources of funding and financiers
Changes in legislation may aªect future
investment opportunities, or lead to increased
expenses, resulting in reduced future returns.
New banking legislation may aªect access to
financing, cost of borrowed capital – and might
trigger credit clauses that would lead to higher
financing costs. Changes in tax rates and tax
legislation – such as proposals regarding
interest-deduction limitations, new regulations
concerning tax depreciation and the prohibition
for "bundling" of properties – may aªect
Castellum's future tax expenses.
PRIORITY: FOCUS DEVELOPMENT:
4. Regulatory compliance
Lack of compliance could lead to financial losses,
supervisory sanctions, loss of reputation, and –
worst-case – to delisting.
Some regulations are open to interpretation
– (IFRS), which means that Castellum and a
• A corporate culture based on high ethical ideals
• Strict internal control processes with several
levels of quality assurance
• Code of conduct
It is crucial to the Group's long-term success
that Castellum's operations are conducted in a
responsible manner. Our business and our ability
to continue to create value are based on the
relationships between employees, customers,

REAL ESTATE PORTFOLIO

Real estate portfolio risks are risks associated with the ownership of Castellum's real estate portfolio, which in turn can be divided into risks concerning the composition of the portfolio, investments and changes in property value.

RISK RISK MANAGEMENT EXPOSURE
COMPOSITION OF THE REAL ESTATE PORTFOLIO PRIORITY: MONITOR DEVELOPMENT:
5. Composition of the real estate portfolio
The composition of the portfolio can be aªected
at two levels: unfavourable geographical distri
bution – which means that Castellum owns
properties in the wrong submarket, community
or location with respect to, for example, future
growth and current urbanization trend, – or:
owning obsolete properties – i.e. a real estate
portfolio that is not future-proof with regard to
customer preferences, technical requirements,
micro-location – or flexibility in usage and condition
of contracts.
• Macro analysis – regular reviews of submarkets
regarding economic growth, rental market,
cooperative climate, infrastructure investments,
etc.
• Annual review of the real estate portfolio
regarding geographic exposure and property
type
• The Board's adoption of an annual strategy
document
Castellum's real estate portfolio is located in five
growth regions and 17 areas. Currently, all loca
tions are assessed as having the right conditions
for continued holding or investments. Moreover,
during 2014 and 2016, major transactions took
place with the aim of creating better conditions
for future cash flow growth.
The Group's real estate portfolio in the commer
cial real estate segment is distributed across
o¦ce/retail (but not malls) and warehouse/light
industrial/logistics. All segments are linked to
growth possibilities.
PRIORITY: FOCUS DEVELOPMENT:
6. Obsolete product/property
A non- "future-proof" real estate portfolio may
become obsolete due to customer preferences,
technical requirements, micro-location or to
flexibility in usage and condition of contracts. It
entails a risk of increased vacancies and a decline
in value as a result. Alternatively, large invest
ment commitments.
• Follow the rental market and its development/
supply
• "Trend spotting"
• Be close to customers to understand not only the
needs of today but also those of tomorrow
• Follow infrastructure investments
• Participate actively in developing the area/
submarket
• Follow the development of technology
• Ongoing investments in existing portfolio to
"upgrade" and sell properties that are not
deemed "right" from a future perspective.
Castellum annually invests approx. SEK 3.5
billion, evenly distributed in a normal year
between acquisitions, new constructions,
extensions and reconstructions. In addition,
the Group sells real estate for about SEK 0.5
billion a year when it is commercially justified.
PRIORITY: REVIEW DEVELOPMENT:
7. Size – too big in a submarket/area
Becoming too big in a market segment or area
may mean that the municipality or the outside
world places higher demands on Castellum, for
example: that the company has to take overall
financial responsibility for an area regarding
infrastructure etc.
• To be among the top three in each respective
submarket
• Follow market share, which is considered in the
adopted investment strategy
• Conduct annual analysis of the next three years
to ascertain available growth opportunities
The real estate portfolio is concentrated to selected
submarkets, which are all considered stable,
possessing favourable prospects for long-term
positive development.

RISK RISK MANAGEMENT EXPOSURE

INVESTMENTS PRIORITY: MONITOR DEVELOPMENT:

8. Investments

Erroneous investment strategy or, alternatively: inability to execute the selected investment strategy or to find profitable investment projects.

Investments can be made either in the form of new constructions, extensions and reconstructions, or via acquisitions. Acquisitions of individual properties can be carried out directly as property acquisition, or indirectly in corporate form. Acquisitions may also be made on a larger scale, either in the form of portfolios for regions or category of properties, or in the form of strategic acquisitions of corporations, i.e. the purchase of an existing organization.

  • Annual review and evaluation of the adopted investment strategy
  • Link investment decisions to the adopted investment strategy to ensure the optimal decision is made
  • Several parallel investment discussions ongoing simultaneously
  • Post-investment follow-ups after three years
  • Risk-based model to determine the proportion of projects that may commence without ready customers
  • A structured decision-making process which analyzes market conditions and risks
  • Contract form that limits risk
  • Leasing agreements designed to limit the negative impact of unforeseen construction delays, additional requirements, etc. when leasing before construction starts
  • Quality assurance and evaluation of implemented projects
  • Quality assured due diligence process concerning legal, financial and tax issues

• Identify in advance the skills and market aware-

• Introduction program for new employees

Low-yield investments and/or lack of growth potential mean that the 10% income-growth objective for property management will not be achieved. Further, yearly net investments constitute a prerequisite for reaching the growth target, which in a highly competitive real estate market means increased risk that the investment strategy can't be carried out.

The risks associated with new constructions, extensions and reconstructions concern both technology issues in the form of construction risks – such as selecting suppliers, contract type, technical execution, etc. – and market issues in the form of rental and vacancy risks as well as miscalculations regarding potential rental level and customer requirements. In addition, there are risks in the form of negative environmental impact. Acquisitions via corporations also involve corporate-specific risks pertaining to the acquired companies, for example, taxes, litigations and environmental issues. Furthermore, the task of employee integration often accompanies the transfer of employees.

9. Strategic acquisitions

Strategic acquisitions can be performed to obtain various advantages, but can also carry risks such as di¦culties integrating operations and employees, a risk that management's attention is drawn away from other important business issues, risks with a potentially new market that the acquirer has limited or no experience of, expenditures for any unknown or potential legal liabilities in the acquired company, as well as an overly expensive acquisition.

CHANGES IN PROPERTY VALUE PRIORITY: FOCUS DEVELOPMENT:

10. Changes in value – real estate

Value changes can occur due to macroeconomic factors (see section above, on macroeconomic risks), microeconomic factors (usually the wrong submarket, district or location), or propertyspecific causes. In addition, there is also the risk of individual properties being incorrectly assessed. Whatever the reason, value changes aªect both income statement and Castellum's financial position including loan to value ratio.

• Strong balance sheet

• Due diligence

ness needed

incorporate a new company

• Identify key figures in well in advance • Access to the market's best advisors

  • A large number of properties, a geographically diversified real estate portfolio and great variation in lease agreements – concerted actions which result in lower volatility of the real estate portfolio value
  • Continuous analysis of the transaction market and quarterly reviews of the valuation of the real estate portfolio help detect early warning signs
  • Internal quality assurance and internal control of internal valuations
  • Annual external valuation of at least 50% of the portfolio

(directly or indirectly via advisors) required for major strategic acquisitions.

PRIORITY: FOCUS DEVELOPMENT:

During 2016 Norrporten was acquired, which means that a large integration work is ongoing of two corporate cultures.

Large negative value changes can ultimately lead to the breaking of agreed terms and terminating credit agreements, thus resulting in higher borrowing costs, or – worst-case scenario – in utilized credits falling due for payment.

• Thorough planning and structured processes to Castellum has eªective processes and skills

MANAGEMENT

Property-management risks refer to risks connected with day-to-day management of Castellum's property portfolio, which can directly influence the balance sheet. These can be categorized as rental income, property costs, taxes, sustainability, liability risk and reporting.

RISK RISK MANAGEMENT EXPOSURE
RENTAL INCOME PRIORITY: MONITOR DEVELOPMENT:
11. Rental income
Rental income is aªected by many factors, both
external and internal. External factors may
include falling market rents, loss of indexation
and bankruptcy (see section above on macro
economic risks). Poor management can result in
disgruntled tenants, unnecessary vacancies and
customer loss caused by inability to oªer cust
omers what they want.
• Maintain properties in growth areas and a
contract portfolio with a large number of
agreements – not dependent on a single tenant
or business sector. Ensure a maturity structure
spread over time
• Proximity to customers and attentiveness to
customers
• Experienced and competent management and
leasing staª who prevent notices of termination
through active renegotiations before contract
expiry
• Competitor analysis; measure customer satis
faction and follow-up of net leasing
• Strive for leases with an index clause with
deflation protection and minimum indexation
For Castellum, reduced income can be derived
from lower rental value, i.e. loss of potential rent
obtained from vacant premises, or from lower
rental income, which is the actual rent received.
Rental income is hence dependent on both the
market rent of the property and on how Castellum
handles vacancies. Reduced rental income
ultimately leads to a decline in the value of the
real estate portfolio.
The acquisition of Norrporten results in a lower
risk distribution in the contract portfolio due
to a large proportion of public tenants as state,
government and agencies and extended average
lease length on the contracts.
PRIORITY: FOCUS DEVELOPMENT:
12. Disgruntled customers/tenants
The risk that several tenants or customers become
disgruntled and leave the Group.
The ability to attract new customers/tenants
fails, with large vacancies and value decline as a
result.
• Proximity to customers and attentiveness to
customers
• Experienced and competent management and
leasing staª
• Annual measurement, Customer Satisfaction
Index
Castellum has a strong and clear customer
focus, and it is important that the Group lives
up to customer expectations. Hence, an annual
Customer Satisfaction Index measurement is
carried out.
PROPERTY COSTS PRIORITY: REVIEW DEVELOPMENT:
13. Property costs
Risks concerning property costs mainly relate
to cost increases beyond what Castellum can
be compensated for through contractual rents,
indexation and surcharge. It can also refer to
unforeseen costs and extensive renovation needs.
• High percentage of cost recharging
• Compensation via minimum indexation
• Continuous optimization of operations and
e¦ciency eªorts
• Electricity hedging
• Demarcation list landlord/tenant
• Prevention of rental losses via background
checks on customers and operating an "in-house"
debt collecting business
• Long-term maintenance planning, in order to
optimize maintenance costs over time
The price of electricity is determined by supply
and demand in an open, deregulated and partly
international market. Other media costs are partly
controlled by local monopolies, which creates
uncertainty in future costs. The basis for calcu
lating ground rent levels may change in future
renegotiations, and political decisions can change
both tax rate and tax assessment value used for
calculating property tax. Indirect costs for employees
– such as payroll taxes and other obligations –
could also be aªected by political decisions.
TAX PRIORITY: REVIEW DEVELOPMENT:
14. Tax
Castellum's potential non-compliance with
existing regulations or non-adaptation to
changing regulations regarding income tax
and VAT. Tax is also an important parameter
in the context of calculation.
• Strict internal control processes and external
quality assurance of, for example, income tax
returns
• Open claims regarding doubtful items
• Continuous training of employees
• Closely following the development of legis
lation, praxis and court orders
Incorrect tax management might lead to erro
neous tax being paid, to tax penalties and, in
some cases, to qualified opinion. Poor fiscal
management may lead either to an overesti
mation of the return – which means insu¦cient
actual return. Or it could lead to an underestima
tion of the return, with the risk of a fundamentally
profitable investment not being implemented.
RISK RISK MANAGEMENT EXPOSURE
SUSTAINABILITY PRIORITY: FOCUS DEVELOPMENT:
15. Sustainability
An erroneous investment strategy or portfolio
management may mean that the Group does
not have the correct platform for maintaining
sustainable earnings. For example, lower cost
e¦ciency may occur if measures are not taken
to save energy and minimize waste. For new
construction, extension and reconstruction there
is a risk that the materials and methods used may
subsequently prove to cause damage. In addition,
environmental policies and environmental opinion
may aªect Castellum, not least in the form of
increased taxes or necessary investments.
Being a long-term player, incidents may arise
which imply that Castellum does not assume
social responsibility – causing damage to the
reputation or brand.
• Monitor developments in laws and regulations
• Prioritize environmental issues in all parts of
the business
• All new constructions will be environmentally
certified
• Sustainability policy, where measurable goals
common to the Group have been developed
under the headings:
- Promote more e¦cient resource consumption
- Develop a sustainable real estate portfolio
- Develop green relationships with customers
- Sustain social commitment and responsibility
• Code of conduct for Castellum employees, as
well as for suppliers and partners, in place
• Comply with standards and documentation
requirements
Castellum works with environmental certifi
cation and environmental inventory to reduce
environmental, climate and health risks. 24% of
the real estate portfolio is certified and 89% has
undergone environmental inventory. E¦cient
management, with focus on reduced resource use
reduces the risk of high costs, environmental and
health impacts as well as providing customers
with a healthy working environment. Since 2007,
energy consumption has been reduced by 26%
and carbon dioxide emissions by 71%.
Defect-risk in the work of the suppliers involved,
can also aªect Castellum. However, by including
the Code of Conduct and sustainability standards
in procurement, the risk is considered to be low.
Through community involvement in all locations
where Castellum operates, the company contributes
to the attractiveness of the area and reduces
social challenges.
LIABILITY RISKS PRIORITY: MONITOR DEVELOPMENT:
16. Liability risks
All ownerships entail responsibility. For Castellum's
part, the properties may be destroyed by fire, water,
theft or other damage. Moreover, Castellum may
– through negligence – cause damage to a person
or to the property of another. The Company might
also cause environmental damage for which it
will become liable.
• Preventive measures to minimize the risk of
damage to property, person or environment
• All properties will be covered by full value
insurance
• Subscribe to an insurance which covers liability
and other economic losses
• Environmental inventory of existing portfolio and
when acquiring new properties in order to identify
and address environmental and health risks
Inadequate insurance coverage may result in
unforeseen costs for Castellum. Liability and
compensation for damage might also arise
due to personal injury and third-party property
damage, as well as for remediation of environ
mental damage.
REPORTING PRIORITY: FOCUS DEVELOPMENT:
17. Reporting
The risk of an o¦cial report, in the form of interim
reports or financial statements, which do not
provide a true and fair view of Castellum's opera
tions, earnings and financial position.
• A corporate culture based on high ethical ideals
and orderliness
• Close internal control with quality assurance at
several levels
• Skilled and experienced staª
• Updated on development of regulations and
able to implement changes in good time
• A compliance function which reports directly to
the Board's Audit and Finance Committee
• External audit full-year and half-year
A misleading report would lead to bad will and
a negative reputation in the market. This may
lead to uncertainty among investors, increased
risk premium and, ultimately, to a negative
exchange rate impact, creating economic
losses for Castellum's current owners. Other
effects include: investors may make incorrect
investment decisions, regulators may exercise
sanctions and, ultimately, the Castellum share
may become delisted.
During 2016 has a change of administrative system
been carried out as well as a reorganizations
which means new procedures and processes.

EMPLOYEES

To recruit, develop and retain motivated and engaged employees is crucial to Castellum's long-term success.

RISK RISK MANAGEMENT EXPOSURE
EMPLOYEES PRIORITY: FOCUS DEVELOPMENT:
18. Employees
Employees are one of our most important assets
– their decisions and actions run the business.
The largest risk is to fail to recruit, develop and
retain employees and senior executives with the
right skills, which may lead to underachievement
at Castellum.
• Castellum's common value-system
• Open and transparent work environment
• Skills and leadership development
• Employee Satisfaction Survey (NMI)
• Succession plan for key employees/manage
ment positions
• Market and competitive remuneration
• Analysis of employee turnover
Bad hires in the wrong place, disgruntled
employees, poor leadership and an organization
that fails to encourage open dialogue and stimu
late development can lead to employees being
discontented, underperforming or quitting. In
turn, dissatisfied employees and high employee
turnover lead to increased costs, poorer customer
relations, reduced internal efficiency and –
ultimately – to lower profitability.
Castellum is in a process of change with both
reorganization and a integration of Norrporten
in progress.

FINANCING

Castellum's single greatest risk is not to have access to financing. Lending conditions, as well as credit market rules can change quickly, thus aecting Castellum's interest rate risks, financial costs and ability to extend existing credit agreements and sign new ones.

RISK HANTERING EXPOSURE
FINANCING PRIORITY: FOCUS DEVELOPMENT:
19. Financing
Liquidity and financing risk: Financing is either
not available or conditions are very unfavourable
at a given time.
Selected capital structure: Castellum violating
the 55% limit for LTV or the covenant of 65%
could aªect the market's confidence in Castel
lum, with potential results:
- violating the 55% limit for LTV leads to more
expensive financing costs for some contracts
- violating the 65% limit for covenants means
that they expire for a number of contracts
Interest rate risk: the risk that a change in market
interest rate will affect income and cash flow.
Castellum may violate the established mandate of
an interest coverage ratio of no less than 200%
or corresponding covenants of a minimum of
175%.
• A finance policy defines that determines risk
mandates
• Liquidity reserves/unutilized credit facility
• Multiple sources of financing (bank, MTN,
commercial paper programs)
• Several lenders, and only counterparties with
high credit ratings
• Continuous renegotiation of credit agreements
• Security through pledged mortgages
• Strong balance sheet
• An interest-rate maturity structure spread over
diªerent terms
• Long-term credit agreements with fixed
margins
• Revolving loans in order to obtain maximum
flexibility
• Only marketable instruments used in the
market, so that listed prices can be obtained
• Established formulas for handling calculations
• Reconciliation between internal and external
valuations
• A compliance function to ensure independence
Property ownership is a capital-intensive
business that requires a well-functioning credit
market. Access to finance is fundamental for
Castellum and for continued growth. Insu¦cient
liquidity reserves could result in Castellum
missing out on business opportunities. Further
more, all lenders are not equally strong financially,
which means that counterparty risks are built into
the system.
Changes in capital structure might cause
Castellum to violate the agreed-upon finan
cial key ratios of the loan conditions, which
would lead to more expensive loans or to credit
agreements maturing. In addition, confidence
in Castellum within the capital market could be
negatively aªected by not ensuring an appropriate
capital structure.
The market interest rate is aªected by the Riks
bank's monetary policy, expectations of economic
development – nationally as well as internationally
– and other unforeseen events.
The acquisition of Norrporten means a signi
ficantly larger credit portfolio, and thereby a
increased refinancing risk.
PRIORITY: MONITOR DEVELOPMENT:
20. Changes in value – derivatives
Changes in value of Castellum's interest-rate
derivatives or currency derivatives arising from
changes in market interest rate or from the
exchange rates between SEK/DKK.
• A financial policy regarding fixed interest terms
and currency risks
• Marketable instruments – exclusively – used in
the market, so that listed prices can be obtained
• Established formulas for handling calculations
• Reconciliation between internal and external
valuations
• A compliance function to ensure independence
Changes in market interest rate and exchange
rates aªect the market value of the derivatives
portfolio. Improper valuation of derivatives may
provide an inaccurate picture of the Group's
financial position.

Sound corporate governance is the foundation for a trusting relationship with shareholders and other key stakeholders.Sound corporate governance is the foundation for a company to be managed sustainably and responsibly – as well as eciently and eectively. It requires compliance with legislation, rules and good practice, but also has to be tailored to Castellum's business operations.

Sweden's leading real estate developer – creating sustainable value through responsible business practices

At Castellum, we hold – and take – far-reaching responsibility that extends beyond the Group's formal commitments as defined by laws and regulations. This is nothing new for us. Long before the concept of sustainability started to make the rounds, Castellum took ambitious initiatives and set tough targets for the Group's use of resources.

Real estate is one of the largest environmental polluters. Just to illustrate: real estate accounts for approx. 40 percent of the world's carbon emissions. The first targets were set as early as 1995, with the aim of prioritizing areas where Castellum could assume a strong leadership role and realize significant environmental benefits. Over time, these targets have been gradually refined and broadened. Everything that can be measured gets done.

Issues concerning the ecient use of resources and the reduction of Castellum's ecological footprint are vibrant topics in Castellum's board room. We regularly monitor achievements in relation to set targets. The current target period extends through 2017. Most of the objectives have already been achieved. For example, Castellum's energy consumption in 2016 per sq. m. was 43 percent lower than the industry average (target: at least 50% lower by 2017) and carbon dioxide emissions have been reduced by 71 percent since 2007 (target: 70% by 2017). For more information, please see pages 44–45.

However, we must never become complacent, so we're already outlining how to raise the bar for the next target period. It's one of the areas that Castellum's executive management and Board will pay special attention to during the year.

By involving our tenants as well as their employees – for example, through green leases – and by putting pressure on district heating producers, municipalities and other public bodies, we are accelerating the pace towards an ecologically sustainable society.

Smart solutions come in all sizes. Ingrained behaviour can be changed and has to be changed. By extending invitations and inspiring innovation through new technologies – particularly digital – we can utilize our size as leverage and quickly implement smart solutions across 4.3 million sq. m. of business space. That's equivalent to 860 football pitches, spread across Sweden's and Denmark's main growth areas.

Our position as one of Sweden's largest real estate owners and developers – as measured by investments in new construction, extensions and reconstructions – gives us a unique opportunity to create public good.

The aspects which currently fall within the concept of sustainability – to conduct business in a responsible manner and create long-term solutions from economic, ecological and social perspectives – are deeply rooted in Castellum's DNA. Each year we broaden the scope by making conscious choices.

Over time, sustainability has become a fully integrated part of Castellum operations. This is reflected in the complex web of activities and relationships that constitutes Castellum's universe, both in dealings with the outside world and in internal operations. We want to be in the forefront and contribute as much as possible to the UN's global sustainability goals for 2030.

We're utterly convinced that this approach is the basis for a sustainable value creation for our shareholders and a shortcut to our financial target, and thereby to a favourable and solid total yield, over time.

This is our motive – and it's good enough for us.

Winning prizes has never been our goal. However, we are of course happy and proud of the rain of coveted awards received in 2016, honouring Castellum's sustainability eorts. A "ketchup eect" after decades of diligent everyday eorts and an acknowledgement of persistent and purposeful strategic decisions.

"Our position as one of Sweden's largest real estate owners and developers – as measured by investments in new con struc tion, extensions and reconstructions – gives us a unique opportunity to create public good."

A critical issue for Castellum's Board and Executive Management is therefore to aspire to a high business tempo where change is seen as an opportunity. The Board's role is to set requirements but also to support Executive Management in the transformation.

The inclusion of the Castellum share in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index is of particular importance from a capital market perspective and enables us to reach an even larger and more demanding investor universe. This, as the only Swedish company in the construction and real estate business and in the good company of six other Swedish prestigious Large Caps.

Courage and patience

On several occasions I've dwelt upon the real estate industry being characterized by sluggishness – for better and for worse. Leases are often long-term, contributing to a limited risk level in a well-composed portfolio. Such extended lockins require long-term planning and visionary thinking to bring about major changes. The preferences of our customers – as well as their own employees and customers – change faster and faster. The transformation of society to new patterns of behaviour creates opportunities for new thinking and strengthens Castellum's competitiveness compared with other players. Castellum's size and interface towards all groups in the communities in which we operate create a unique opportunity for providing our partners with interesting and relevant venues – a condition for creativity and growth.

A critical issue for Castellum's Board and Executive Management is therefore to aspire to a high business tempo where change is seen as an opportunity. The Board's role is to set requirements but also to support Executive Management in the transformation.

Our goal is to move even more decisive power closer to customers, while simultaneously realizing economies of scale and building specialist expertise. During the year, parallel with the concentration to a few regions, we increased the empowerment of our 20-or-so business locations. Here – closest to customers – is where we want to strengthen business power. By allocating certain corporate functions, we'll develop sharp purchaser and specialist competencies. This is crucial from an owner-and-Board perspective. We have to economize with shareholder equity – for example, by using our collective purchasing power optimally – but also by delivering the desired yield that matches a conscious risk level. As Castellum becomes more of a development company, we're planning investments of approximately SEK 10 billion over a three-year period. A highly specialized project organization is required.

Sluggishness of the rental market is matched by sluggishness in the transaction market. To achieve a significant change in the real estate portfolio valued at SEK 10 billion three years ago, a bigger reach than the previous model – many, smallersized transactions – was required. We'd already noted that in order to future-proof the portfolio and deliver on promised growth, we'd have to leave

approx. SEK 5 billion to other owners. Parallel to this, a transformation through project development and acquisitions was essential to ensuring sustainable growth and avoiding increased risks in the form of obsolete locations and products.

Even back when Henrik Saxborn took over as CEO, we agreed to reconnoitre and scout for business opportunities beyond the ordinary. We called it "leap business": to move beyond the limitation of the mind and agree that we were willing and prepared to make a significant transformation in one leap. And that we would have the courage to act if the opportunity arose.

To give a face to the concept of patience, let me tell you that Castellum took a first initiative – almost three years to the day – prior to the acquisition date for Norrporten. At no point did we ever feel confident of reaching a conclusion. During those years, however, we did not stand still; we transferred the real estate portfolio through transactions and projects with a gross value of SEK 9 billion. At the same time, we established financial preparedness. Business decisions of this kind – whether large or many smaller – have come to represent an increasingly larger portion of the Board's agenda and demands on Board members.

It's particularly encouraging that a growing share of recent net investment consists of our own projects. Our belief is that being able to deliver returns and growth at a reasonable risk is based on a strong entrepreneurial culture where business noses create projects and new combinations – thereby adding to the strong, more manage-andmaintain profile that has long been Castellum's hallmark.

My Board colleagues and I would like to take this opportunity to thank the owners for their confidence and willingness in contributing to a significant new issue – relative to Castellum equity – thereby facilitating the acquisition of Norrporten. As shareholders, we note for 2016 that the Castellum share delivered a total share yield of 23.8 percent, compared with 9.6 percent – relative to the corresponding index on Stockholm Nasdaq – and 7.2 percent for the Sweden Annual Property Index, respectively. The Board and Executive Management look forward to continuing on this agile and exciting track and building shareholder value over time.

Swedish Code for Corporate Governance

Corporate governance covers the various means of decision making by which the shareholders – directly and indirectly – control the company. Corporate governance has evolved through laws, recommendations and statements, the Code (Swedish Code for Corporate Governance) and through self-regulation. It is based upon the comply-or-explain principle, meaning that all rules do not always have to be followed and there is no crime in deviating from one or more particular rules of the Code if there are motives and explanations. The Swedish Code for Corporate Governance (the Code) is conducted by the Swedish Corporate Governance Board and is found at www.bolagsstyrning.se, where the Swedish model for corporate governance is also described.

ªThe model above describes the overall structure of corporate governance at Castellum AB (publ).

Observance of the Code

Castellum applies the Code with the purpose of creating favourable preconditions for taking on the role of active and responsible ownership. It is crucial that the company acts responsibly to fulfil strategies and create long-term value.

ªAccording to Board appraisal, Castellum has followed the Code in all respects during 2016 and has no deviation to report.

Charlotte Strömberg Chairman of the board in Castellum AB (publ)

All members of the Election Committee have carefully considered and concluded that there is no conflict of interest to accept the assignment as member of the Election Committee of Castellum. Four recorded meetings have been held by the Election Committee. In addition, the Election Committee has had contact via telephone and email. The Election Committee has received a presentation from the Chairman of the Board concerning the results of the evaluation of the Board of Directors, and has thereto conducted interviews with all members of the Board of Directors. The Election Committee has further taken note of the Audit and Finance Committees' recommendation to the Board of Directors regard ing election of auditor.

ªThe Election Committee has considered all tasks stated in the Swedish Corporate Governance Code under the responsibility of the Election Committee. The Election Committee has discussed and considered, inter alia,

  • to what extent the current Board of Directors fulfills the requirements that will be imposed on the Board of Directors as a result of Castellum's business and development phase,
  • the size of the Board of Directors,
  • the dierent areas of competence that are and should be represented on the Board of Directors,
  • the composition of the Board of Directors with respect to experience, gender and background,
  • remuneration to the members of the Board of Directors,

• questions relating to election of auditor and CASTELLUM'S AUDITORS the auditor's fee,

• the procedure for establishing a new Election Committee for the Annual General Meeting to be held in 2018.

The Election Committee has considered that the gender balance shall be maintained in the Board of Directors and that the Board shall be characterised by diversity and breadth regarding competence, experience and background. The Election Committee has applied rule 4.1 in the Swedish Corporate Governance Code as diversity policy when preparing the proposal regarding election of members of the Board of Directors.

ªFinally, the Election Committee has, in order for the company to fulfill its information obligation to the shareholders, informed the company on how the Election Committee has performed its tasks and on the proposals that the Election Committee presents.

ªThe Election Committee considers that the members of the Board of Directors of Castellum are competent and have extensive experience regarding real property matters in a broad sense, sustainability matters, infrastructure matters and city planning, capital market matters and financing matters, customer service and changed customer behaviors, trend analysis, digital conversion, insight in transformation trends at both private and public players, communication and marketing and regarding board work in general. Therefore, the Election Committee considers that the current Board members together constitute a Board of Directors, which has the versatility and competence, experience and background required with respect to Castellum's business, development phase and other circumstances. The Election Committee's proposal implies that four out of seven Board members of the company will be women. Considered the above, the Election Committee proposes that all current members of the Board of Directors are re-elected.

External auditors

The external auditors are appointed by the AGM and responsible to the shareholders at the AGM. They are independent reviewers of Castellum's accounting and corporate governance report and also review the Board and the CEO.

NINA LINANDER BOARD MEMBER

"An eventful and busy year"

"Castellum's operations focus on cash-flow growth, while maintaining low financial risk. This approach provides conditions for solid growth in the company, and enables us to offer shareholders a competitive dividend.

This strategy meant that 2016 an eventful and busy year. We acquired Norrporten and the remaining 50% of CORHEI. We also sold properties for a total value of approx. SEK 7 billion to streamline the portfolio. As a result, the value of our real estate portfolio increased from SEK 40 billion to SEK 71 billion.

The repositioning also means that our real estate portfolio became more risk-diverse, resulting in higher quality in more central locations, an expanded customer base and an extended contract portfolio. All of the above were achieved at Castellum parallel with consolidating the organization under a single brand, centralizing support functions and replacing administrative systems.

We've also worked hard with our capital structure and implemented a rights issue and a share issue while restructuring our debt portfolio – all to facilitate for and manage the large portfolio transfer.

In all: An eventful and busy year for Castellum.

Officer and setting remuneration and other terms of employment benefits for the CEO. Each member is to act independently and with integrity and ensure that the interest of the company and all shareholders is protected.

At page 88 a description of the Board's year is presented.

The Board of Directors – rules of procedure

The Board of Directors rules of procedure are set annually. The rules of procedure describe the work of the Board and the distribution of responsibility between the Board and the Chief Executive Officer. The rules of procedure also state which topics should be dealt with at each Board meeting and give instructions regarding financial reporting to the Board of Directors.

The rules of procedure also prescribe that the Board will have an auditing and finance committee and a remuneration committee. The committees review and prepare recommendations to the Board on various matters. Members of the committees are appointed yearly. The Chairman of the Remuneration Committee should be the Chairman of the Board of Directors, and the Chairman of the Audit and Finance Committee is appointed by the Board.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors

The Chairman of the Board of Directors is responsible for making sure that the members of the Board regularly receive required information from the Chief Executive Officer. This is in order to follow up on the company's financial position, results, liquidity, financial planning and development. The Chairman of the Board of Directors is also obliged to fulfil decisions made by the Annual General Meeting regarding establishment of an election committee and to participate in the work of the committee.

The Board of Directors – activities during 2016

In 2016, Castellum's Board held 18 meetings, of which one was the Board meeting following election. According to the prevailing procedural rules, the Board is to hold at least seven scheduled board meetings each calendar year, of which one is a Board meeting following election.

Board meetings are held in connection with the publication of the company's reports, specifically: the Annual Report, proposed appropriation of profits and issues relating to the AGM are dealt with in January; interim reports are discussed in April, July and October; strategy is examined in June and the budget for the following year is considered at the meeting in December.

At each of the scheduled board meetings, matters of significance for the company, such as investments, sales of properties and funding are covered. Further, the Board is informed on the current business situation in the rental and real estate markets as well as in the credit and stock markets. Issues about safety, incident reports and customer-related issues are

managed regularly by the Board, and at each board meeting, an executive session is conducted without anyone from corporate management present. The Board also has meetings with the auditors without the presence of corporate management.

Regular matters dealt with by the Board during 2016 included company-wide policies, an overall strategy plan, procedural rules for the Board, capital structure and funding needs, sustainability efforts, the business model and organizational issues, as well as the company's insurance situation. In addition, the Board devoted several meetings to enhancing their knowledge of operations through themed meetings and visits to the regions.

In addition to the above, the work of the Board in 2016 focused on the acquisition of Norrporten and the implementation of the transformed corporate structure.

Based on the comprehensive evaluation of the Board in autumn 2015 with the help of an outside consultant, the Board has evaluated its work during 2016. The evaluation showed an open and constructive Board climate and a well-functioning decision-making process.

The evaluation has been presented and submitted to the Election Committee and discussed by the Board.

The evaluation covers topics such as working climate, working procedures in the business process, crisis management, follow-up and control systems, morals, ethics and communication.

The evaluation and related discussion serve as a basis for the continuous development of the Board's work and ensure that the Board can make decisions which are as well-informed as possible.

No other compensation than remuneration for work on the Board and committees has been paid.

Remuneration Committee

The Board's Remuneration Committee continuously evaluates the remuneration to executive management in view of current market conditions. The Committee prepares matters for decisions by the Board. The members of the Remuneration Committee are appointed once a year.

The Remuneration Committee consists of three Board members, including the Chairman of the Board, who is Chairman of the Remuneration Committee. The Committee's rules of procedure are drawn from the Board of Directors' rules of procedure and are established annually. The Remuneration Committee's functions are to:

  • Prepare and propose guidelines for remunera tion principles, remuneration and employment terms for the CEO and other senior executives. The guidelines for remuneration are to be sub mitted to the Board which, in turn, will work out remuneration suggestions to be decided upon at the Annual General Meeting,
  • Monitor and evaluate ongoing incentive plans – completed during the year – for flexible

remuneration to Executive Group Management. The results of the Remuneration Committee's evaluation of remuneration to senior executives are presented on the company's website,

• Annually evaluate the work of the CEO.

The Remuneration Committee will meet at least twice a year. During 2016, the Committee held three meetings. Issues addressed at the meetings included the review of the remuneration of the CEO and other senior executives, decisions about changes in the remuneration of members of executive management, evaluation and follow-up of existing incentive programs, as well as HR and succession issues. In 2016, the Remuneration Committee also received a comprehensive external evaluation of the CEO's eorts. They developed parameter proposals for the individually targeted factors regarding the annual performance-based incentive program.

Audit and Finance Committee

The Board's Audit and Finance Committee monitors financial and auditing matters and submits them to the Board for decision. The Chairman and members of the Committee are appointed annually.

ªThe Audit and Finance Committee consists of three members, and the Committee's rules of procedure partly consist of the Board of Directors' rules of procedure, which are established annually. The Audit and Finance Committee's functions are to:

  • Monitor financial reporting and make recom mendations and suggestions to ensure the reliability of the financial reporting,
  • Monitor, with respect to financial reporting, the eectiveness of internal controls, any internal audits and risk management,
  • Monitor work on capital structure and other funding issues and prepare funding issues for decisions by the Board,
  • Monitor the eorts concerning business risks and compliance, and ensure that appropriate systems for control and monitoring exist,
  • Submit an annual report on internal control and ensure that the corporate governance report describes the Board's measures to ascertain that the internal control works,
  • Keep informed about the Annual Report and consolidated accounts,
  • Inform the Board about the result of the audit and how it contributed to the reliability of financial reporting,
  • Keep informed about the findings of the Super visory Board of Public Accountants' control of the auditors,
  • Review and monitor the auditor's impartiality and independence, and evaluate auditing activi ties, as well as informing the Election Committee of the evaluation outcome,

Active Board work in 2016

The Board's main tasks are both to act as a control body and to provide support for Executive Management. The controlling task means ensuring that Castellum acts for the long term: responsibly, with a mindset for sustainability, as well as seeing to it that operations run e¥ciently in accordance with laws, regulations and good business practice.

For the supporting task, the Board becomes a challenging driver and supports via close contact with business operations. During our eventful 2016, the Board has been more active than usual in this role. The clearest examples are:

• The acquisition of Norrporten in April

In Sweden's second largest real estate transaction to date, the Board actively took part in preparing for and implementing the acquisition, as well as the extraordinary general meeting (which was a prerequisite for the transaction). The integration of two major organizations has also been an important task for the Board.

The October Board meeting was held in Copenhagen, where the Board had the opportunity to visit some of Castellum's new real estate portfolio in Örestad – the well-situated and fast growing area between the city centre and Kastrup Airport, Scandinavia's largest airport.

• Long-term restructuring of the real estate portfolio

In autumn 2014, Castellum initiated e§orts to restructure the real estate portfolio, and the Board has been very active in this strategic work. In the spring of 2016, and more rapidly than announced, Castellum took

over all of CORHEI. The Group had owned 50% of the company – operating in Norrköping and Linköping – since 2015.

In October, properties in Malmö and Lund were sold for approx. SEKm 900. In addition, a portion of the real estate portfolio in Norrland was sold in autumn 2016.

• The change in corporate structure

Kicking o§ in 2016, Castellum has been organized into regions and operates under a single brand. The Board has been active in e§orts aimed at clarifying the company's collective resources and making Castellum more e¥cient and e§ective – without jeopardizing the close customer relationships thriving in local markets.

• Sustainability

The Board has been the driving force in e§orts to develop Castellum's sustainability activities, and in the autumn the company launched green MTNs, a form of financing based on sustainability from various perspectives.

In 2016, one result of Castellum's overall sustainability e§orts involved being selected, under fierce global competition, for participation in the prestigious DJSI sustainability index: the Dow Jones Sustainability Index.

CHRISTER JACOBSON BOARD MEMBER

"Somewhat of a ketchup-effect"

"2016 was an intense year for board work at Castellum. But the fact is that the process of repositioning the portfolio – as well as the brand and the organization – was initiated a few years back. In 2016, somewhat of a 'ketchupeffect' was seen in the almost simultaneous launch of several major transactions and projects.

I feel that Executive Management and the Board have worked closely and effectively together throughout the entire process. We have held many Board meetings, but all have been characterized by great commitment and high spirits. It's extra fun, of course, that the outcome was just what we'd hoped for and had indicated to the market – despite many components being uncertain or difficult to forecast.

I think that Castellum's Executive Management has done a fantastic job! And I'm thrilled to have been part of this exciting journey, both as Board member and shareholder."

  • Take note of the auditors' report pursuant to Article 11 of the Audit Ordinance and, if needed, take appropriate action in response to it,
  • Issue guidelines for services other than auditing provided by auditors and, where appropriate; approve of such services in accordance with these guidelines,
  • Prepare matters regarding procurement of audit and other services from the auditors,
  • Assist the Election Committee in nominating auditors and determining their remuneration; the Committee is then to monitor that the auditors' term of office does not exceed the applicable rules; procure audit and provide a reasoned recommendation in accordance with what is stated in Article 16 of the Audit Ordinance. "

The Audit and Finance Committee will meet at least four times a year, and of these, the Group's auditors will attend at least twice. On one of the occasions when the Audit and Finance Committee meets with the auditors, no one from corporate management is to be present. In 2016, the Audit and Finance Committee met four times. Examples of the issues dealt with at meetings involved: capital structure and financing issues; financial reporting, including a review of future regulations and their possible consequences for Castellum; internal control and risk management, as well as the work of the auditors. This last includes auditor impartiality and independence – development of policies and feedback from the Whistleblowing-service. Business-related issues were also thoroughly investigated.

During the year, the Audit and Finance Committee has also held a private meeting with the compliance officer without the presence of management.

CEO and Executive Group Management

The Chief Executive Officer is responsible for the company's day-to-day management and for leading operations according to the guidelines and directives submitted by the Board of Directors. The CEO also provides the Board with information and the necessary documentation for decision-making. The CEO leads the work of Executive Group Management and makes decisions after consulting its members.

The Chief Executive Officer

The Chief Executive Officer reports at Board meetings and assures that members of the Board regularly receive the information required to follow the company's and the Group's financial position, results, liquidity and development.

Executive Group Management

Executive Group Management consists of the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, the

Chief Investment Officer, the HR manager and well as the six Managing Directors of the five regions. Each member of Executive Group Management has his or her own area of responsibility, and meetings mostly cover issues pertaining to overall operations. Executive Management held 13 meetings in 2016.

In 2016, Executive Management focused on the acquisition of Norrporten and the integration of the two Groups. Executive Management also worked on the new Group structure implemented in 2016, which entailed that the six subsidiaries and Norrporten form five regions under one common brand. The transformation also means that the Finance Department has moved to head office and that a common corporate finance system has been implemented.

The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer join the Managing Director of each subsidiary to constitute the Board for each local region company.

Guidelines for remuneration for senior executives The 2016 AGM decided on the following remuneration guidelines for senior executives:

Castellum is to uphold competitive remuneration levels and attractive terms of employment to recruit and maintain excellent management with the competence and capacity to achieve set objectives. The Board of Directors considers and evaluates the remuneration as a whole, consisting of fixed remuneration, pension terms, variable remuneration and non-monetary benefits. A fixed salary will be paid for work performed in a satisfactory manner. In addition, flexible remuneration under an incentive plan may also be offered. The formulation is based on the objective of interconnecting the executive team's interests with shareholder interests, in that senior management members are also shareholders in Castellum.

This also entails an increased proportion of executive remuneration being directly linked to the Group's development. Flexible remuneration, which generally cannot exceed the fixed salary, is determined by the extent to which previously set objectives are achieved for growth in property management per share and share price development. It is also determined by how individually targeted factors have developed. The received remuneration according to an incentive program shall be paid as salary and includes payment for vacation. Such remuneration shall not be a pension qualifying income. Executives who receive flexible remuneration in accordance with the incentive program are committed to acquiring Castellum shares for at least half the amount of flexible remuneration after tax.

The pension terms of executive management are to be set according to general market practice and will be based on pension plans with fixed payments.

Upon termination by the Company, such period

of notice shall not exceed six months for the Chief Executive Ocer and twelve months for other executives. During the notice period full salary and other employment benefits are paid, with deduction for salary and remuneration received from other employment or business during the notice period. Such deduction will not be made in respect of the Managing Director. A severance pay, corresponding to twelve fixed monthly salaries, will be paid to the Managing Director upon termination by the company. Such severance pay will not be reduced due to other income received by the Managing Director.

ªCastellum has followed the guidelines decided by the 2016 AGM.

ªThe proposed guidelines for remuneration for senior executives, which will be put forward at the AGM on March 23, 2017, are in principle unchanged compared with those put forward to the AGM in 2016.

ªThe incentive program for senior executives in respect of the annual profit-based bonus, is to be applicable during 2017–2019; for the share-pricebased bonus the eective period is June 1, 2017, to May 31, 2020.

ªFor further information regarding remuneration for Executive Group Management, see note 11.

Compliance and internal control

Castellum has a Compliance Ocer who monitors compliance, i.e., ensures that laws, regulations and internal rules are complied with. The Group's corporate lawyer is Compliance ocer.

ªCastellum's internal control is based on the established "COSO" framework, which consists of the following components: control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information, communication and monitoring. Castellum's internal control is described on pages 95-97.

ªCastellum has a whistle-blower function, which is accessed via all web sites of the Group and via the Group's Intranet. The service represents an early warning system for reporting deviations from Castellum's values and business ethics guidelines.

ªThe Compliance Ocer supports business activities by identifying and following up business risks. The Compliance Ocer regularly reports risks and compliance to the CEO, as well as to the Audit and Finance Committee.

Executive Group Management consists of the Chief Executive Ocer, the Chief Financial Ocer, the Chief Investment Ocer, the HR manager and well as the six Managing Directors of the five regions.

Compliance and internal control

According to the Swedish Companies Act and the Swedish Code for Corporate Governance, the Board of Directors is responsible for internal control. This report has been drawn up in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Code for corporate governance and is therefore limited to internal control regarding financial reporting.

ªInternal control in Castellum follows an established framework, Internal Control – Integrated Framework, "COSO", comprising the following five components: control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information-andcommunication, and monitoring. A schematic description of the internal contral is shown below.

Control environment

The basis for internal control of financial reporting comprises a control environment, which consists of various parts that form Castellum's management culture and values. The fundamentals for Castellum's internal control comprise the following: a decentralized small-scale organization with approx. 700 properties, as well as cost centres, which are managed by five regional comapnies. 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, etc., are also important for internal control. Documents in use are updated regularly to reflect changes in legislation, accounting standards or listing requirements etc.

Risk assessment

At Castellum, risk management is built into our processes and various methods are used to evaluate and limit risks. We 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, and the Audit Committee, review internal control once a year. Identified risks are assessed and measures are set to reduce these risks. The important risks Castellum has identified in financial reporting are errors in 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 identified in financial reporting are addressed by the company's control structure, resulting in a number of control measures. The control measures aim to prevent, discover and correct errors and deviations. They comprise analytical reviews on many levels in the organization: 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-ocer activities; group-wide definitions; templates and tools for reporting as well as accounting and valuation principles.

ªCastellum subsidiaries have their own financial functions, which take part in the planning and follow-up of financial results for their units. The

CASTELLUM'S INTERNAL CONTROL ENVIRONMENT

INTERNAL CONTROL IS GOVERNED BY:

  • Board of Directors rules of procedures • Audit and Finance Committee's rules
  • and procedures
  • Rules for decision making
  • Instructions for authorization
  • Accounting manuals
  • Reporting manuals
  • Finance policy, communication policy, insider policy, sustainability policy, Code of Conduct, Code of Conduct for suppliers and partners and Crisis management
  • Guidelines for information security, insurance and electricity trading
  • Accounting manual, HR manual, Manager manual
  • Finance instructions • Continuity plan

regular self-analysis of unit financial reporting and the analysis made at Group level constitute an important part of internal control. This ensures that financial reporting does not contain any significant errors.

ªBoard reviews the interim and annual reports before publishing.

Information and communication

Castellum has processes for information and communication that aim to ensure the eective and correct distribution of information regarding financial reporting. This demands that all areas of the operation communicate and share relevant and important information. Policies and guidelines regarding financial reporting as well as updates and changes are made available and clearly communicated to the personnel concerned. Executive management, as well as the Board of Directors regularly receive financial information about the subsidiaries with comments on financial results and risks. The Board of Directors also receives additional information regarding risk management, internal control and financial reporting from the auditors through the Audit and Finance Committee. In order to ensure that the external distribution of information is correct and complete, we have both a policy for communicating with the stock market and an information security policy.

Company culture

That Castellum's operations are conducted in a responsible way is a prerequisite for the company's long-term successful business. The objective is to make sound and proper business decisions in all respects, high business morality, good business ethics, responsibility awareness and impartiality. The base of Castellum's code of conduct is to oer good quality and service, to follow laws and regulations, not to discriminate against anyone and to create good working environment and safety.

ªCornerstones for Castellum's company culture have been: The decentralized organization, which creates responsibility and committed employees, where each single colleague is a business collaborator. The geographical proximity to customers, community, suppliers and other parties involved creates a responsibility to act correctly and businesslike.

ªIn Castellum's flat organization each employee has an important role and new ideas are valued. A high level of competence is available within the organization.

Long-term value creation

Long-term value creation requires that operations are run with a sustainability focus. Sustainability work involves both environmental considerations such as reduced use of resources and close control of the property portfolio, as well as assumption of social responsibility by contributing to the development of the communities where Castellum operates. Our eorts also involve ensuring a healthy working environment for employees. Sustainability activities are carried out in collaboration with customers and other stakeholders – a requirement for success.

Aim

financial policy also specifies how responsibility for the financial operations will be distributed and how
financial risks will be reported and monitored. The financial policy includes instructions for how operational
activities will be run.

timing. The policy covers both internal and external communications.

that all business decisions are sound and healthy. The Code of Conduct will govern the Group's actions
in relation to employees, contractors, customers, suppliers and other stakeholders.

GROUP POLICIES ISSUED BY THE BOARD

<-- PDF CHUNK SEPARATOR -->

Guidelines for how value-creating sustainability activities are conducted are found in the Sustainability Policy, Code of Conduct and the Code of Conduct for Suppliers and Partners. Castellum reports on sustainability eorts in accordance with the GRI G4. Reports on sustainability activities are regularly provided for the Castellum Board.

Monitoring

Regular follow-ups take place on many levels in the Group, on both property-level and subsidiarylevel as well as Group level. The Board of Directors, which also makes up the Audit and Finance Committee, regularly evaluates the information provided by Executive Group Management and the auditors. The company's auditors also report in person directly to the Audit and Finance Committee at least twice a year regarding their auditing observations and their assessment of internal control. In addition, the Audit and Finance Committee conducts an annual review of the risk assessments and agreed-upon measures. Monitoring by the Audit and Finance Committee and the Board of Directors is of particular importance for the development of internal control and for ensuring that timely measures are taken for potentially emerging shortcomings and suggestions.

Need for internal audit

Castellum has a decentralized and transparent organization. The economy and finance functions are managed from the head oce, which means that procedures and processes will remain coherent. However, the move also provides

opportunities for the various functions to monitor each other's processes – a form of self-evaluation. All to increase and improve internal controls. Quarterly follow-ups of income statements and balance sheets are made by the business units and the company. Clear documentation through policies and instructions, along with regular follow-ups and regular discussions with the auditors, continuously ensure that the eorts of improving processes remain ecient and eective. Management and reporting are monitored by auditors twice a year and reported to both the Audit and Finance Committee and the Board. In addition, there is a "whistleblower" function on the Group's website. In all, the conclusion is that a separate internal audit function is uncalled for.

Whistle-blower

Castellum's whistle-blowing-service, "Help us to do right", can be reached by all the web pages in the Group and through the Group's Intranet. The whistleblowing-service is an early warning system which provides both employees as well as external partners the possibility to anonymously report a concern about something that is not in line with Castellum's corporate values and business ethics. The service is administered by an external partner to ensure anonymity and professionalism.

Financial Key Ratios

A number of the financial measures presented by Castellum are not defined in accordance with the IFRS accounting standards. However, the company believes that these measures provide useful supplementary information to both investors and Castellum management, as they facilitate evaluation of company performance. It is to be noted that, since not all companies calculate financial measurements in the same manner, these are not always comparable to measurements used by other companies. Hence, these financial measures should not be seen as a substitute for measures defined according to the IFRS. Unless otherwise stated, the table below presents measures, along with their reconciliation, which are not defined according to the IFRS. Definitions for these measures appear on the page 161.

*) The number of historical shares that have been recalculated with reference to the bonus-issue element (i.e. the value of the subscription right) in the completed new share issue, and utilized in all ratio calculations for SEK-per-share. The conversion factor is 1.15.

INCOME FROM PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

Castellum's operations are focused on cash-flow growth from ongoing management operations – i.e. income growth from property management – the prime yearly objective being a 10% increase in property management income. Income from property management also forms the basis of the annual shareholder dividend: at least 50% of property-management income. Income from property management is calculated before paid tax, as well as after the theoretical tax that Castellum would have paid on income from property management, had there been no loss carryforwards.

NET ASSET VALUE

Net asset value is the total equity which the company manages for its owners. Based on this equity, Castellum wants to create return and growth at a low level of risk. Net asset value can be calculated both long and short term. Long-term net asset value is based on the balance sheet, with adjustments for items that will not lead to any short-term payment. In Castellum's case, these would include such things as goodwill, derivatives and deferred tax liability. Actual net asset value is equity according to the balance sheet, adjusted for the market value of the deferred tax liability.

* Estimated real deferred tax liability net has been calculated to 5% based on a discount rate of 3%. Further, assessments have been made that tax loss carry forwards are realized in 2 years with a nominal tax of 22%, giving a present value of deferred tax liability of 21%, and that the properties are realized in 50 years where 33% are sold directly with a nominal tax of 22% and that 67% are sold indirect through company disposals where the buyers tax discount is 6%, which gives a present value of deferred tax liability of 4%. Furthermore, deferred tax assets attributable to non-deductible losses in the derivatives portfolio have been valued at a nominal tax of 22%.

FINANCIAL RISK

Castellum's strategy is to own, develop and manage properties at low financial risk. This is expressed in a loan-to-value ratio not permanently exceeding 55% and an interest-coverage ratio of at least 200%.

Accounting Principles and Notes

(All figues in SEKm unless stated otherwise.)

Note 1 Accounting Principles

General Information

The financial reports of Castellum AB (The Parent Company) for the financial year ending December 31, 2016, have been approved by the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Ocer on February 1, 2017, and will be proposed to the 2017 Annual General Meeting for adoption. The parent company is a public Swedish limited liability company, registered in Gothenburg, Sweden. The business activities of the Group are described in the Directors' report.

Basis for accounting

Castellum's accounts have been prepared in accordance with the IFRS standards adopted by the EU. Further, the consolidated accounts have been prepared according to Swedish law by application of the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 1 (Complementary accounting principles for consolidated accounts).

The accounts are prepared based on fair value of investment properties and derivatives, nominal value for deferred tax and acquisition value for the remaining items.

Critical assessments

Accounts are completed in accordance with the IFRS, and generally accepted accounting principles require assessments and assumptions aecting recorded assets, liabilities, income and costs, as well as other information. These assessments and assumptions are based upon historical experience and other factors which are considered fair under current conditions. Actual outcome may dier from these assessments if other assumptions are made or other conditions exist.

Investment properties

For valuation of investment properties, assessments and assumptions can have a significant eect on the income and financial position of the Group. These valuations require estimates and assumptions of future cash flows and the discounting factor (required yield). To reflect the uncertainty that exists in the assessments and assumptions, an uncertainty range of +/- 5–10% is normally used in property valuations. Information about this, along with prevailing assessments and assumptions, is presented in note 12.

Asset acquisition versus business combination

A company acquisition can be classified as either a business combination or an asset acquisition. An acquisition that has the primary purpose to acquire a company's property – i.e. where the company's possible property management and administration are of secondary importance to the acquisition – is classified as an asset acquisition. Other company acquisitions are classified as business combinations.

For asset acquisitions, no deferred tax is recorded in the acquisition. Instead, a possible tax discount reduces the acquisition value of the property, meaning that changes in value will be aected by the tax discount in the subsequent valuation.

Deferred tax liability

According to accounting principles, deferred tax shall be accounted for using nominal tax rate without discount, i.e. the 22% corporate tax rate adopted by the Swedish parliament. Actual tax is considerably lower, in part due to the possibility to sell properties in a tax-ecient manner, and in part due to the time factor.

Income from property management

Castellum's operations are focused on cash flow growth from property management – i.e. growth in income from property management – with the objective of an annual increase in property management income by at least 10%. It is also the income from property management that forms the basis of what is distributed to shareholders annually – at least 50% of the income from property management. Thus, changes in value have not been targeted since they are neither included in the basis for distribution, nor in any other basis, e.g. the management's incentive program. To provide an accurate picture of Castellum's view over its business operations, the statement of comprehensive income has been designed accordingly – i.e. changes in values (not aecting cash-flow) are presented after items aecting cash-flow. Furthermore, one performance measure has been added on which the business operations are managed and targeted: income from property management.

Classification

Fixed assets and long-term liabilities consist of items which are expected to be regained or which have matured more than twelve months from the balance sheet date. Current assets and short-term liabilities consist of items that are expected to be regained or settled in less than twelve months from the balance sheet date.

Consolidated account statement

The Group's balance sheet and income statement include all companies where the parent company has direct or indirect control, which is obtained when Castellum achieves voting majority. All companies in the Group are whollyowned. In addition to the parent company, the Group comprises the subsidiaries listed in Note 25 and their respective sub-groups. Consolidated account statements are based upon the account books for all subsidiaries as of December 31. The consolidated accounts are prepared according to the acquisition method. This means that shareholders' equity in the subsidiaries at the time of acquisition, calculated as the dierence between the fair value of the assets and liabilities, is fully eliminated. The shareholders' equity of the Group includes only the part of shareholders' equity in the subsidiaries that has been earned after acquisition.

The consolidated income statement includes companies acquired or sold during the year only for the time of possession. Intra-group sales, income, losses and balances are eliminated in the consolidated accounts. The accounts of foreign operations are translated to SEK by translating the balance sheet to the exchange rate at balance date – except for shareholders' equity, which is translated at historical exchange rate. The income statement is translated at the average exchange rate of the period. Currency translation dierences are recognized in other total income.

Income

Rental income

Rental income, which from an accounting perspective represents income from operating leases, is invoiced in advance and recorded as a linear allocation in the income statement, based on the terms in the leases. Rental income includes supplementary charges for the tenant, such as debited property tax and heating costs. Pre-paid rents are recorded as deferred rental income.

In cases where a lease during a certain period of time oers a reduced rent, corresponding to a higher rent at another point in time, this lower/higher rent is accrued over the leasing period. Pure discounts, such as reduction for successive moving-in activities, are recorded in the income statement for the period in which they occur.

Income from property sales

Income from property sales is entered as of the contract date, unless special conditions exist in the purchasing agreement. Sales of properties through companies are net accounted for with reference to underlying property price and calculated tax. Income resulting from property sales is accounted for as a change in value and refers to the dierence between the received sales price after deduction of sales costs, and the recorded value in the latest interim report, with adjustment for capitalized investments after the latest interim report.

Financial income

Financial income consists of interest-rate income and is recorded in the period to which it refers.

Received Group contributions, as well as received and anticipated dividends, are also recorded as financial income. In the calculation of financial income, the eect interest method is applied.

Financial costs

Financial costs include interest and other costs that occur when borrowing money. Pledging costs for mortgages are not considered financial costs but are capitalized as an increase in value of investment property. Financial costs are accounted for in the period which they refer to. Financial costs also include the interest cost for interest-rate derivatives. Payments for these interest-rate derivatives are accounted for in the period to which they refer. Net financial items are not aected by market valuation of the undertaken interest rate derivatives. Instead, changes in market value of interest-rate derivatives are recorded as changes in value under a separate headline. The portion of interest cost originating from the construction period for major new construction, extensions or reconstructions are capitalized. Interest is calculated based on the average interest rate level for the Group.

Employee benefits

Employee benefits are accounted for as employees perform services in exchange for remuneration. Benefits from incentive plans settled in cash and paid as non-pensionable salary are accounted for as targets are met during the period of the incentive plan.

Pensions and other post-employment benefits are classified as defined contribution or defined benefit plans. The majority of Castellum Group's pension commitments are defined contribution plans, fulfilled through regular payments to independent authorities or bodies which administer the plans. Obligations regarding payments to contribution plans are recorded as costs when they are due. A small number of employees within the Castellum Group have defined ITP-plans with regular payments to Alecta. These plans are recorded as defined contribution plans, since Alecta does not provide the information needed in order to report the plan as a defined benefit plan. There are no indications of any significant liabilities in addition to what has already been paid to Alecta.

Income taxes

Income tax in the income statement is divided into current and deferred tax. Income tax is recorded in the income statement except when related to transactions recorded directly in equity. In these cases, the related tax eects are also recorded directly in equity. Current and deferred taxes are calculated based on the current tax rate of 22%, which applies to both Sweden and Denmark.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recorded at Castellum using the balance-sheet method, for all temporary dierences 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 for which the asset or liability is realized. Exceptions are made for temporary dierences that arise from the initial accounting for assets and liabilities relating to asset acquisitions. Castellum has four entries that contain temporary dierences: properties, tax-loss carry forwards, derivatives and untaxed reserves. Deferred tax assets related to taxloss carry forwards are recorded, since it is probable that future taxable income will be available, which may be utilized to oset tax-loss carry forwards. Deferred tax liability is calculated on the dierence between the properties' book value and their tax basis value, as well as on derivatives and untaxed reserves. For changes in any of the four entries above, the deferred tax liability/tax asset is also changed, and this is recorded in the income statement as deferred tax.

Castellum has recorded the acquisition of Norrporten and CORHEI during the year as business combinations, meaning that full deferred tax is accounted for in the balance sheet.

Current tax

In addition to deferred tax, current tax – the tax the company must pay on taxable income for the year – is also recorded in the income statement. It includes adjustments for previous periods.

Leases

Leases where all crucial risks and benefits associated with the ownership fall on the lessor, are classified as operational leases. From an accounting perspective, all existing rental leases related to Castellum's investment properties are classified as operational leases. Refer to accounting principles for income and note 3 for further information of accounting for leases.

From an accounting perspective, a site leasehold is an operational lease. The ground rent is accounted for in the income statement for the period to which it refers.

There are a small number of leases of insignificant value, where Castellum is the lessee. These leases are also accounted for as operational leases and concern mainly leased cars. Payments made during the leasing period are recorded as running costs in the income statement, distributed over the leasing period.

Investment properties

Investment properties are properties held for the purpose of generating rental income, capital appreciation, or both. This is opposed to utilization in the company's operations for production or supply of goods or services or for administrative properties are classified as 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 are initially recorded at acquisition cost, which includes expenses directly related to the acquisition and are subsequently recorded at fair value with changes in value on the income statement. Fair value is calculated using an internal valuation model described in note 11. The note also describes assumptions made as basis for the valuation. The valuation model is based on an earnings-based value, determined by calculating the net prevailing value of future cash flows. A dierentiated required yield for each property depending on such factors as location, intended use, condition and standard is taken into consideration. In order to provide further assurance, part of the portfolio has been valued externally.

Changes in value

Changes in value are recorded in the income statement and consist of unrealized as well as realized changes in value. Unrealized changes in value are calculated based on the valuation at financial year end, compared with the previous year's valuation. Otherwise, it is based on acquisition value, if the property has been acquired during the year, with the addition of capitalized subsequent expenditures. 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 with the valuation at the end of previous year, with adjustment for capitalized subsequent expenditures during the period. Principals for calculation of realized changes in value is described in the principles for Income from property sales.

Subsequent expenditures

Subsequent expenditures are capitalized if they lead to economic benefits for the company – i.e. if they increase the valuation of the property – and can be reliably calculated. Costs for repairs and maintenance are accounted for in the income statement for the period in which they occur. For major new construction, extensions and reconstruction projects, interest costs during the construction period are capitalized.

Acquisitions and sales

For acquisition or sale of properties or companies, the transaction is entered as of the signing date, unless special conditions exist in the purchasing contract.

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets comprise all equipment, which has been recorded at acquisition value, including deduction of accumulated depreciation according to plan and any write-downs. Acquisition value includes purchase price and costs directly related to the acquisition, e.g. transport-to-site and proper conditions for utilization according to the purpose of the acquisition. Depreciation on equipment is based on historical acquisition values after deduction of subsequent write-downs. Residual value is assumed 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, normally five years, except for computers that are expected to have a three-year period of use.

Goodwill

Goodwill arising from the preparation of consolidated accounts represents the dierence between acquisition cost and the Group's share of the fair value of the acquiring subsidiary's identifiable net assets at acquisition date.

The Group's reported goodwill is attributable to deferred tax. Goodwill is valued at acquisition value for acquisition date; thereafter it is valued at acquisition value after deduction for possible write-downs. Goodwill is tested annually for possible write-downs, or if there are indications that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

Financial instruments

Financial instruments recorded in the balance sheet include assets such as liquid assets, lease receivables, other receivables and loans receivable, as well as liabilities such as interest and currency derivatives, accounts payable, other liabilities and loans payable.

Financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value equivalent to acquisition value, with the addition of transaction costs. An exception to this includes financial instruments that are recorded at fair value through the income statement, where transaction costs are excluded. Subsequent accounting is based on the classification made according to the criteria below. Financial transactions – such as cash received or paid as interest and amortization – 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.

A financial asset is removed from the balance sheet when the rights are realized, expired or the company no longer exercises control over it. A financial liability is derecognized from the balance sheet when contractual obligations have been paid or in some other way extinguished.

Cash and bank

Cash and cash equivalents could consist of the Group's available cash balances with banks and similar institutions, as well as by bank deposits with a residual maturity of no more than ten (10) banking days, short-term investments in treasury bills and bank and municipal bonds with a residual maturity of a maximum of three (3) months. At December 31, cash and cash equivalents consisted entirely of disposable bank balances.

Receivables

Financial assets which are not derivatives, that feature fixed or predictable payments and are not quoted on an active market, are recorded as receivables. In the Group there are mainly rent receivables and other receivables. After individual valuation, receivables have been recorded as the amount at which they are expected to be received. This means that they are recorded at acquisition value with deduction for receivables which are uncertain. Reservation for uncertain receivables is made when an objective risk assessment concludes that the Group might not receive the entire receivable. Receivables in the parent company consist only of receivables from the subsidiaries, which are recorded at acquisition value.

Liabilities

Liabilities refer to credits and operating liabilities such as accounts payable. The majority of Castellum's credit agreements are long-term. In cases where short-term credits are drawn under long-term credit agreements, the credits are considered long-term. The credits are recorded on the settlement date at accrued acquisition value. Deferred unpaid interest is recorded in accrued expenses. A liability is recorded when the counter-party has performed services and a legal obligation to pay exists, even if the invoice has not yet been received. Accounts payable are recorded when the invoice is received. Accounts payable and other operative liabilities with short duration are recorded at nominal value.

Foreign currency

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to Swedish kronor (SEK) at the spot exchange rate of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the balance day rate.

Derivatives

Interest-rate derivatives are financial assets or liabilities which are valued at fair value, with value-changes recorded in the income statement. In order to manage exposure to fluctuations in the market interest rate according to the finance policy, Castellum has entered interest-rate-derivative agreements. When using interest-rate derivatives, changes in value may occur, mainly due to changes in market interest rates. Interest-rate derivatives are initially recorded in the balance sheet on the trade day at acquisition value. They are subsequently valued at fair value with value-changes in the income statement.

Changes in value can be realized as well as unrealized. Realized changes in value refer to redeemed interest-rate derivative contracts and constitute the dierence 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 period for the interest-rate derivatives that Castellum held at the end of the period. Changes in value are calculated based on valuation at the end of the period, compared to valuation from the previous year. They can also refer to the acquisition value if the interest-rate derivative agreements have been entered into during the year. For interest-rate derivatives that have been redeemed during the year, an unrealized change in value is recorded and calculated based on valuation at the latest interim report, prior to redemption, compared with valuation at the end of the previous year. Payments made under these agreements are accounted for in the period to which they refer.

Financing of foreign investments can be achieved by raising loans in the functional currency of the company, and by entering into currency derivatives. Castellum apply hedge accounting of net investment in foreign operations in cases where currency derivatives are used. They are initially reported in the balance sheet at cost on trade date, and thereafter reported at fair value. The eective portion of the foreign exchange rate change regarding the hedging instrument is recognized in other total income, while the ineective portion is recognized as change in value in the income statement. The balance date rate is used to determine real value.

The valuation of derivatives at fair value is adjusted for counterparty risk, i.e. CVA and DVA

Shareholders' equity

Repurchased shares

Repurchased shares reduce shareholders' equity by the purchase price, including any transaction costs.

Dividends

Dividends are accounted for as a deduction of shareholders' equity after the decision by the Annual General Meeting (AGM). Anticipated dividend is accounted for as financial income by the recipient.

Earnings after tax per share

Calculation of after-tax earnings per share is based on the Group's net income for the year pertaining to the shareholders of the parent company, and on the weighted average number of outstanding shares during the year.

Provisions

Provisions are liabilities that are uncertain regarding timing or amount. A provision is recognized when there are contractual obligations, court orders or other legal grounds likely to involve future payments. The amounts are continuously reassessed. Liabilities due in more than one year are estimated using discounting.

Definition of segments

The Group's operations are organized, managed and reported primarily by geographical region. Segments are consolidated according to the same principles as the Group. Income and costs reported for each segment are actual costs, and no distribution of common costs, assets or liabilities is made between the regions. The same applies to the assets and liabilities reported in the note for segments.

Cash flow statement

The cash flow statement has been prepared according to the indirect method. Net profit or loss is adjusted for eects of non-cash transactions during the period as well as for income or costs associated with the cash flow from investment or financing activities.

Dierences in accounting principles between the Group and the parent company

The Annual Report of the parent company has been prepared according to the Annual Accounts Act and by application of the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 2, Accounting for legal entities. RFR 2 states that a legal entity shall apply the same IFRS/IAS that is applied in the consolidated account statement, with exceptions for and additions of rules and laws mainly according to the Annual Accounts Act, and with consideration to the relationship between accounting and taxation. Dierences in accounting principles between the Group and the parent company are presented below.

Presentation

The income statement and balance sheet for the parent company are presented according to the Annual Accounts Act schedules.

Shares in subsidiaries

Shareholdings in subsidiaries are accounted for in the parent company according to the acquisition value method. The book value is regularly compared to subsidiary group equity. When the book value is lower than the group value of subsidiaries, a write-down is recorded in the income statement. Previous writedowns that are no longer justified are reversed.

Contingent liabilities

Contingent liabilities for the benefit of subsidiaries are financial guarantees and accounted for in accordance with RFR 2, i.e. they are not accounted for as provisions. Instead, Castellum provides information in the notes.

New accounting rules and regulations

New and revised existing standards and interpretations, approved by the EU

New standards that came into force in 2016

The new standards that came into force in 2016 have not had any impact on Castellum's financial reporting.

New standards and interpretations that come into force in 2017 and onwards IFRS 9 Financial Instruments legislation was adopted by the EU in autumn 2016, coming into eect on January 1, 2018. The recommendation means a new classification of financial assets and liabilities as well as a new model for credit provisions which will take into account the company's expected credit losses. The changes are not expected to have any material impact on Castellum but may need to be documented. For Castellum, the most substantial change in the regulatory framework concerns hedge accounting, which Castellum only uses to hedge its investment in Denmark through currency derivatives. Here, too, Castellum will mainly be aected by documentation, and a review will be made in good time for transition to the new regulatory framework.

©IFRS 15 Revenue Recognition was also adopted in the autumn, eective January 1, 2018. In addition, clarifications to the recommendation were presented in 2016 and are expected to be adopted by the EU during the first half of 2017. Castellum's income consists of rental income and sales income from real estate. Regarding the abovementioned, Castellum currently accounts for both direct and indirect real estate transactions on contract day given that customary contract terms apply. IFRS 15 may result in the transaction, and hence the sales income, being accounted for when change of possession occurs. Moreover, the recommendation results in expanded disclosure requirements regarding sales; for example, whether the transaction price includes variable or contingent consideration and/or elements of financing. Briefly, the clarifications published in in 2016, but not yet adopted by the EU, require that the performance obligations of principal vs agent be identified. The distinction between principal and agent may aect the recognition of revenue when re-invoicing the tenant, which in turn depends on whether Castellum acts as principal or agent in such situations. In 2017, Castellum's leasing agreements will be analyzed to clarify the relationship between principal and agent and investigate the possible distinction between rental and service revenues.

Changes in Swedish regulations

The changes in 2016 have not had any significant impact on Castellum's accounting but have primarily entailed slightly increased disclosure requirements.

Note 2 Segment reporting

The Group's operating segments consist of the following geographical areas: Central (Örebro, Västerås, Linköping, Norrköping and Växjö), West (Greater Gothenburg incl. Borås and Halmstad), Stockholm, Öresund (Malmö, Lund, Helsingborg and Copenhagen) and North (Gävle and Sundsvall). The operating segments are identified by geographical field of activity, which is according to how they are followed-up and analyzed by the primary operational decisionmaker in the Group. The Group only manages commercial properties.

Note 3 Rental income

Rental value

Group rental income was SEKm 4,533 (3,299). Rental income consists of the rental value with deduction for the value of vacant premises during the year. Rental value refers to rental income received and the estimated market rent of unlet premises. The rental value also includes supplementary charges for the customer, such as heating, property tax and an index supplement. Rental value SEK/sq. m. for the dierent regions and types of properties are shown in the table below. Rental levels have increased by 2% (1%) in comparable portfolio compared with previous year.

Renegotiation

Commercial leases, for which rents are paid quarterly in advance, are signed for a fixed period of time, which means that a change in market rents does not have an immediate eect on rental income. Rental levels can only be changed when the lease in question is due for renegotiation. Rental levels at Castellum are considered to be aligned with the market.

Commercial leases include a so-called index clause, which provides for an upward adjustment of the rent, corresponding to a certain percentage of inflation 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 for the relatively small portion in 2017 is that a majority of maturing leases were already renegotiated in 2016 due to periods of notice. The most common terms for a new lease include a 3-5 year duration, with a nine-month notice period. The average remaining lease duration in the portfolio is 3.8 years (3.4).

Economic occupancy rate

Castellum's average economic occupancy rate during 2016 was 91.3% (90.3%). It was 91.8% (90.2%) for oce and retail properties and 89.5% (90.5%) for warehouse and industrial properties. Total annual rental value for vacant premises during the year amounts to approx. SEKm 550 (392).

Rental income for the period includes a lump sum of SEKm 20 (8) as a result of early termination of leases.

©Gross leasing, i.e. the annual value of total leasing, during the year was SEKm 489 (316), of which SEKm 152 (55) related to leasing of new constructions, extensions and reconstructions. Notices of termination amounted to SEKm 311 (298), of which bankruptcies were SEKm 17 (11). SEKm 5 (18) related to notices of termination with more than 18 months left of the contract. Hence, net leasing for the year was SEKm 178 (18). The time dierence between reported net leasing and the eect in income is estimated to be 9-18 months.

Risk exposure and credit risk

Castellum's lease portfolio features a good risk exposure. The Group has approx. 6,000 commercial leases and 500 residential leases, and their distribution in terms of size is presented in the table below. The single largest lease as well as the single largest customer accounts for approx. 2% of the Group's total rental income, meaning that Castellum's exposure to a single- customer credit risk is very low.

Rent receivables

Rents are invoiced and paid in advance, which means that all of the Group's rental receivables of SEKm 118 (7) are overdue.

Parent company

The parent company consists of only group-wide functions and the turnover mainly consists of intra-group services.

Note 4 Property costs

Property costs in 2016 totalled SEKm 1,497 (1,074), equivalent to SEK 376/sq. m. (316). Costs include both direct property costs such as costs for operation, maintenance, ground rent and property tax, and indirect costs such as leasing and property management.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses include costs such as electricity, heating, water, facilities management, cleaning, insurance, rent losses and property-specific marketing costs. Most operating expenses are recharged to the customers as supplements to rent. For warehouse and industrial properties, however, most customers are directly responsible for most operating costs. Operating expenses for 2016 were SEKm 671 (507), equivalent to SEK 168/sq. m. (149). Operating expenses, which are considered to be at a normal level for the business, are weather dependent, and vary between years and seasons. Energy consumption for heating during the period has been calculated to 92% (88%) of a normal year according to degree-day statistics. Operating expenses include rent losses of SEKm 14 (6), corresponding to 0.3% of rental income.

Maintenance

Maintenance costs are ongoing measures to maintain the property's standard and technical systems. 2016 maintenance costs totalled SEKm 189 (133), equivalent to SEK 47/sq. m. (39).

Ground rent

Ground rent, including leasing fees, for 2016 totalled SEKm 24 (27), of which approx. half the amount relates to Greater Stockholm. Ground rent is the annual fee paid to the municipality by the owner of a building on land owned by the municipality. The ground rent is currently calculated in such a way that the municipality receives a fair real interest rate based on the estimated market value of the site. Ground rent is spread over time and is mostly renegotiated at intervals of 10 to 20 years. At year-end 2016, Castellum had 74 properties with ground rent. Existing ground rent agreements mature relatively evenly over the next 60 years. In most cases, when notice is given for a ground rent agreement, the site owner (the municipality) is to compensate Castellum for buildings, etc. There are, however, a few agreements where the municipality can demand that the land be restored.

Property tax

The Group's property tax was SEKm 262 (172), equivalent to SEK 70 sq. m. (50). Property tax is a federal tax based on the property's tax-assessed value. The tax rate for 2016 was 1.0% of the tax assessment value for oce/retail properties and 0.5% for warehouse/industrial.

Leasing and property management

The Group's leasing and property management costs for 2016 were SEKm 351 (235), equivalent to SEK 86/sq. m. (72). Leasing and property management are indirect costs for ongoing property management, comprising the costs of leasing operations, rent negotiation, lease administration, rent debiting and collecting, accounting and project administration costs as well as depreciation on equipment at subsidiaries. Of the costs, SEKm 209 (134) refers to employee benefits and SEKm 12 (10) to depreciation on equipment.

Of the Group's interest costs, SEKm 360 are related to liabilities valued at accrued acquisition value. Corresponding value for the parent company is SEKm 364. Remaining interest costs refer to interest attributable to Castellum's interest derivatives.

Note 9 Changes in value

Properties

The Swedish real estate market in 2016 was characterized by high activity and strong demand, resulting in lower required yield and consequently, higher property prices. Castellum has reflected this price rise in its internal valuation through reduced yield requirements, which at portfolio level corresponds to about 27 points. This, together with mainly project profits and changed cash flow, resulted in a change in value during the year of SEKm 3,793 or 6%. Norrporten's change in value for the first six months – totalling SEKm 638, corresponding to 3% – is included in the purchase price allocation and therefore does not aect Castellum's income. In addition, 80 properties were sold for SEKm 6,754 after reduction for assessed deferred tax and transaction costs totalling SEKm 233. Underlying property value, amounting to SEKm 6,986, exceeded the latest valuation of SEK 6,461 by SEKm 525. As each property is valued individually, the portfolio premium that can be noted in the real estate market was not taken into account.

The net increase in value, including this year's change, over the past 10 years has been 1.3% per year, which is slightly higher than inflation during the same period

Derivatives

Castellum uses interest rate derivatives to achieve the desired interest rate maturity structure. If the agreed interest rate deviates from the market interest rate, regardless of credit margins, there is a surplus or sub-value in the interest rate derivatives where the non-cash-flow changes in value are reported in the income statement. Castellum also uses derivatives in order to hedge currency fluctuation in its Danish investment. For currency derivatives, a surplus or subvalue occurs if the agreed exchange rate deviates from the current exchange rate, where the eective portion of value changes is accounted for in other total income.

The value of the interest derivatives portfolio has changed by SEKm 82 (220), mainly due to changes in long-term market interest rates. The value of Castellum's currency derivatives has changed by SEKm 19 (20) during the year, where the eective portion of the value change, SEKm 19 (24), is accounted for in other total net income. In addition there are realized changes in value on currency derivatives of SEK -76 on other total net income.

Note 10 Income taxes

The Swedish income tax for limited liability companies is 22%. In the income statement, 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 eect of the possibility to use tax depreciation on buildings, to use direct tax deductions for certain property reconstructions, which are capitalized in the accounts, and to utilize existing tax loss carry forwards.

Deferred tax is a provision for future tax that will be paid when the properties are sold, and the depreciation for tax purposes and the capitalized investments deducted for tax purposes are reversed.

Swedish accounting legislation does not permit the presentation of properties at fair value in legal entities, meaning that changes in property values only occur at Group level and thus do not aect taxation. Some financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps, might be recorded at fair value at entity level. For Castellum, negative value changes on such instruments are a tax deductible item, while changes up to the acquisition cost of the instruments comprise a taxable income.

As shown in the table below, taxable income for 2016 is low, since Castellum uses the abovementioned depreciation for tax purposes and tax deductions for certain reconstructions, while property sales mainly were made in the form of tax-free share transfers. Current paid tax occurs because a few subsidiaries are not allowed to make fiscal group contributions.

Tax loss carry forwards consist of prior years' tax losses. The losses, which are not restricted in time, are used to oset future taxable profits. Remaining tax loss carry forwards are estimated to SEKm 2,392.

Total tax may dier from nominal tax due to non-taxable/tax-deductible income/costs or as an eect of other tax adjustments. Total tax cost in Castellum's income statement is less than nominal tax. The eective tax on income from property management, without consideration of tax loss carry forwards, can be calculated to 6%.

*This year's acquisition of Norrporten led to former the CEO of Norrporten, Jörgen Lundgren, being released from his contract at a cost of SEKm 5, excluding social costs. This cost is accounted for among Other employees.

Board remuneration

Board remuneration was decided upon by the Annual General Meeting 2016 to total SEKk 2,610, of which SEKk 720 was designated to the Chairman of the Board and SEKk 315 to each other Board member. Additional remuneration for committee work totals SEKk 210. These amounts apply from the AGM 17-03- 2016 to the AGM 23-03-2017.

Executive management

Executive management changed over the year, and at year-end, the executive management group consisted of the Chief Executive Ocer, the Chief Financial Ocer, the Head of Business Development, the Chief Investment Ocer and the HR Manager at Castellum AB, as well as the five Regional Managing Directors. After the turn of the year, a Director of Corporate Communications was appointed and joins the executive management group, starting January 2017. Moreover, the Managing Director of the Northern Region has resigned from his post.

Remuneration and benefits

Remuneration and benefits for executive management are prepared by the remuneration committee and decided by the Board of Directors. The remuneration comprises a fixed salary as well as a variable remuneration according to an incentive plan, described below. During the three-year period of the plan, variable remuneration can amount to a maximum of three years' salary. Executive management has an incentive plan that comprises two parts:

  • One profit-based part is based on income growth from property management compared to the previous year, as well as an overall estimation of development for certain individual factors. Full outcome requires that income growth from property management per share reaches 10% per year. When growth is in the range 0–10%, a linear calculation of the incentive is made. The profit-based portion is paid out yearly as salary after the year-end closing and can total no more than six months' salary per year. The outcome for 2016 was 84%, representing a cost of SEKm 9.7 including social costs. The plan ended at the end of 2016.
  • One share-price-based part based on the total return on the Castellum share during a three-year period, both in nominal figures and compared with index for real-estate shares in Sweden, the Eurozone and Great Britain. For full outcome of the incentive plan, the total return must be at least 50% during the period and the total return has to exceed index development by at least 5 percentage points during the period. When growth is in the ranges 0–50% and 0–5%-points respectively, a linear calculation of the incentive is made. Any payments due are paid as salary after the measurement period of June 2014–May 2017. During the three-year period, the share-price-based part may total no more than one-and-a-half-years' salary, equal to a Castellum cost of SEKm 31, including social costs. As of December 2016, the outcome was 57%, representing a cost of SEKm 14.5 including social costs. Final reading and set-os will occur in May 2017.

Executives in receipt of variable remuneration according to the incentive plan must acquire Castellum shares for at least half of the amount of the payment due after tax. The paid incentive does not aect pension contributions.

The 2016 AGM decided on a new incentive plan that is basically an extension of the above plan and consists of an annual performance-based remuneration for the years 2017, 2018 and 2019, as well as a three-year share-based remuneration for the period June 2017–May 2020.

Pensions

Members of executive management have defined 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 defined payments and subsequent return will be received as pension. The retirement age for the CEO and other members of executive management is 65 years.

Notice of dismissal

When issued by the company, the period of notice will not exceed 6 months regarding the Chief Executive Ocer and 12 months for any other member of Group executive management. Notice is given by the Chief Executive Ocer or any other member of executive management of the company, the period of notice is six months. During the period of notice, salary and other benefits are paid, with deduction for salary and remuneration derived from another employment or activity. No deduction will occur for the Chief Executive Ocer. At the company's dismissal of the Chief Executive Ocer, a severance pay of 12 months' fixed salary is paid, which is not be reduced as a result of other income that the Chief Executive Ocer receives.

Pensions for other employees

Other employees at Castellum have defined 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 their own right to decide on the time-frame during which the defined payments and subsequent return will be received as pension. However, there is an exception for about 20 employees within the Castellum Group who instead have defined ITP-plans with regular payments to Alecta. Insurance premiums paid to Alecta during the year amounted to SEKm 4 (1). The surplus in Alecta may be distributed to the insurance holder and/or to the insured. Alecta's surplus in the collective consolidation level as of December had not been made ocial at the time of signing of this Annual Report and can therefore not be reported. Alecta's latest ocial consolidation level was 148% (December 2015: 143%), as of September 2016. The collective consolidation level is made up by 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 3% (3%), of which a 2% share (1%) was for long-term sick leave. Absences due to illness for men and women were 3% (2%) and 4% (3%), respectively. Absences due to illness were 4% (2%) for the age group 29 years and younger, 3% (2%) for the age group 30–49 years and 3% (3%) for the age group 50 years or older. Absence due to illness for the parent company was 4% (2%), of which a 3% share (1%) was for long-term sick leave.

Investments during the year

During 2016, Castellum invested a total of SEKm 31,491 (3,553), of which SEKm 29,372 (2,321) were acquisitions and SEKm 2,119 (1,232) were new construction, extensions and reconstructions. SEKm 9,768 of total investments related to the Northern Region; SEKm 8,060 to the Öresund Region; SEKm 7,666 to the Central Region; SEKm 5,346 to the Stockholm Region and SEKm 650 to the Western Region.

Significant obligations

In 2015, Castellum entered into an agreement for the acquisition of one newly built oce property in Hagastaden, Stockholm, for SEK 1.6 billion, with change of possession scheduled for February 2017. The property will be accounted for when the change of possession has taken place because the agreement is conditional on, among other things, completion. Moreover, Castellum has commitments to complete initiated projects where the remaining investment volume amounts to approx. SEKm 1,500, in addition to amounts reported in the balance sheet.

Valuation model

According to accepted theory, the value of an asset is the net present value of future cash flows that the asset is expected to generate. This section aims to describe and illustrate Castellum's cash-flow-based 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 and building rights are added to this. The valuation is thus under IFRS 13, level 3.

The required yield and the assumption regarding future real growth are crucial 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.

Internal valuation

Castellum records the investment properties at fair value and has made an internal valuation of all properties as of December 31, 2016. The valuation was carried out in a uniform manner, and was based on ten-year cash flow model, summarized above. The internal valuation was based on an individual assessment for each property of both its future earnings capacity and its required market yield. Valuations are made locally in each subsidiary and are quality assured by Castellum AB, which also has overall responsibility for both the process and system as for determining the macroeconomic assumptions.

Assumptions of cash flow

In assessing a property's future earnings capacity we took into account an assumed level of inflation 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. In the valuation, the economic occupancy rate gradually improves during the 10-year period and reaches 96%. Included in property costs are operating expenses, maintenance, ground rent, property tax, and leasing and property administration.

Assumptions per property category, year 1 OŽce/Retail Warehouse/industrial
31-12-2016 31-12-2015 31-12-2016 31-12-2015
Rental value SEK/sq.m, 1,561 1,347 818 813
Vacancy 9% 9% 9% 8%
Direct property cost SEK/sq.m. 355 314 167 72
Property management SEK/sq.m 35 35 25 25

Assumptions of required yield

The required yield on equity is dierent for each property and based on assumptions regarding real interest rate, inflation and risk premium. The risk premium is dierent 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, added to the fact that the asset is aected by the general economic situation. The individual risk is specific to each property and comprises a complex weighted assessment that includes property category; the town/city in which the property is located; the property location within the town/city with reference to the property category; and whether the property has the right design, is appropriate and makes ecient use of space. Further considerations: the property's technical standard with regard to such criteria as choice of materials, the quality of public installations, furnishing and equipment on the premises and in apartments; as well as the nature of the lease agreements with regard to such issues as length, size and number of agreements. Properties owned by site-leasehold rights, where Castellum has a reset obligation under contractual agreement, are assigned an additional individual risk premium of 1.0%.

In order to calculate the required yield on total capital, an operating assumption of 5% has been made about the cost of borrowed capital. The required yield of borrowed capital comprises the real interest rate, plus inflation. The loan-tovalue ratio is assumed to be 55%-65%, depending on the property category.

The required yield on total capital is calculated by weighing the required yield on equity and the cost of borrowed capital, depending on the capital structure. The required yield on total capital is used to discount the expected 10-year future cash flows; the residual value is discounted by calculating the return on total capital minus growth. Growth is set as equalling inflation, in order not to assume perpetual real growth.

The calculated required yield is then calibrated compared with the markets required yield. To get an opinion about the market's required yield, Castellum follows completed transactions. In an inactive market within a certain area or for a certain type of property, Castellum compares the data from transactions completed in a similar area or for a similar type of property. In the absence of completed transactions the opinion is based on existing macroeconomic factors.

The average valuation yield for Castellum's real estate portfolio, excluding development projects and undeveloped land, can be calculated to 5.8% (6.5%). Contracted rental levels are considered to be in line with the market levels.

Development projects and building rights

Development projects are valued using the same principle, but with reduction for remaining investment. Sites with building rights and undeveloped land have been valued on the basis of an average estimated market value per square metre, at approx. SEK 1,700 per sq. m. (1,700).

The value of the real estate portfolio

The internal valuation indicates a fair value of SEKm 70,757 (41,818), corresponding to a change in value of 5.6% (4.5%). Approx. SEKm 3,217 of the value relates to properties held through site leasehold rights, with a rental income of SEKm 286.

Uncertainty range and sensitivity analysis

A property's market value can only be confirmed when it is sold. Property valuations are calculations performed according to accepted principles 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. In a less liquid market, the range can be bigger. For Castellum, an uncertainty range of +/− 5%, means a range in value of SEKm 67,219 – 74,295, corresponding to +/− SEKm 3,538.

Sensitivity analysis +/–1% (unit) E…ect on value, SEKm

Economic occupancy rate + 778/– 778 + 175/– 175
Property costs SEK/sq.m. – 184/+ 184 – 41/+ 41
Required yield = discount rate – 7,819/+ 10,087 – 1,469/+ 1,866

The sensitivity analysis shown above illustrates how a +/− 1%-unit change in growth assumptions in future cash flow and required yield aects the valuation. However, the sensitivity analysis is not realistic as one isolated parameter rarely changes; instead, the assumptions made are linked together regarding cash flow and required yield.

External valuation

In order to provide further assurance and validation of the valuation, 180 properties – representing 57% of the value of the portfolio – have been valued externally by Forum Fastighetsekonomi AB. The properties were selected on the basis of the largest properties in terms of value, but they also reflect the composition of the portfolio as a whole in terms of category and geographical location of the properties. Forum's valuation of the selected properties amounted to SEKm 41,180, within an uncertainty range of +/− 5-10% on property level, depending on each property's category and location. Castellum's valuation of the same properties totalled SEKm 40,642, i.e. a net deviation of SEKm 538, corresponding to 1%. The gross deviation was SEKm +1,563 and SEKm −1,025, respectively, with an average deviation of 6%.

In addition, Cushman & Wakefield made a desk-top valuation of 54 properties, corresponding in value to 27% of the portfolio. Cushman & Wakefield's valuation of the selected properties amounted to SEKm 18,229. Castellum's valuation of the same properties amounted to SEKm 19,088, i.e. a net deviation of SEKm -859, corresponding to -5%. Forum's valuation of the same properties amounted to SEKm 19,382, i.e. a net deviation of SEKm +294, corresponding to 2%, compared to Castellum's valuation.

It can be noted that Castellum's deviation from the two external assessors accommodated well within the uncertainty range of +/− 5–10%.

Norrporten AB

On April 13, 2016, Castellum signed an agreement with the Second AP Fund and the Sixth AP Fund about acquiring all shares in Norrporten AB (publ). Castellum gained access to the shares on June 15, 2016, at an acquisition value of SEKm 13,468 distributed as SEKm 10,393 in cash and 27.2 million shares equivalent to a value of SEKm 3,075 and distributed as 19,194,458 new shares and 8,006,708 shares held in treasury. The valuation of these shares was made at market value on the date of transaction, amounting to SEK 113/share (quoted share price on NASDAQ). Acquisition costs amounted to SEKm 126 and have been recognized in the income statement.

©The acquisition is accounted for as a business combination; hence, the occurrence of a goodwill of SEKm 1,891, corresponding to the net deferred tax liabilities at the acquisition date.

©Norrporten has been one of Sweden's largest real estate companies focused on the management and development of modern, high quality oce space centrally located in growth areas in Sweden and Copenhagen. The acquisition complemented and strengthened Castellum's market position: The supply of property types and types of premises increased while geographical presence expanded. The acquisition strengthened Castellum's presence and market position in five locations where Castellum was already established: Stockholm, Copenhagen, Helsingborg, Örebro and Jönköping. The acquisition also resulted in Castellum's establishment, with size and in attractively located properties, in Gävle, Sundsvall, Östersund, Umeå, Luleå and Växjö. Furthermore, Norrporten's tenant structure brought a longer duration into the lease portfolio, as well as more public bodies and government agencies. During the third quarter of 2016, Castellum sold the entire portfolio in Luleå, Östersund and Umeå, as well as part of the Sundsvall portfolio.

©The acquisition of Norrporten is expected to result in synergies of approximately SEKm 150, SEKm 120 of which is estimated to be realized gradually until the end of 2017, whereas the remaining SEKm 30 – primarily attributable to operating costs – are realized over a three-year period from the date of acquisition.

CORHEI Fastighets AB

During the second quarter of 2015, Castellum AB (publ) conducted business with Heimstaden AB (publ) which meant that Castellum acquired 50% of the real estate management company CORHEI Fastighets AB (previously Ståhls) for SEKm 505. Castellum gained access in late May/early June 2015. Through an option, the agreement provided the opportunity to acquire the remaining 50% at market value, no earlier than in autumn 2016. However, this option was used during the first quarter of 2016, whereby Castellum owned 100% of CORHEI Fastighets AB eective the beginning of March 2016. The purchase price for the remaining 50% amounted to SEKm 555.

©The acquisition is a gradual business combination, resulting in a revaluation of SEKm 27 of the 50% previously owned. The revaluation constitutes the dierence between the paid purchase price of SEKm 555 and the previous book asset value of SEKm 528 as of change of possession date in March. The incremental business combination generates goodwill to a value of SEKm 141, which corresponds to the net deferred tax liability.

©Income from joint venture amounted to SEKm 3 (21) and refers to Castellum's 50% share in the income of CORHEI Fastighets AB (previously Ståhls). Of this, SEKm 4 is attributable to income from property management and SEKm −1 (−5) to tax.

The accounted income of the CORHEI Group for 2016 amounted to SEKm 290, of which SEKm 285 relates to income as from Castellum's accession in March. At the time of acquisition, CORHEI's assets consisted of SEKm 2,041 in real estate, SEKm 27 in other assets and SEKm 123 in cash. These were financed with SEKm 938 in equity, SEK 1,069 in interest-bearing loans, SEKm 131 in deferred tax liabilities, as well as SEKm 53 in other accounts payable.

Summary

This year's business combinations of Norrporten and CORHEI mean that shares were acquired for SEKm 14,023, which were financed by SEKm 10,948 in cash and 27.2 million Castellum shares to a value of SEKm 3,075. The business combinations corresponded to a property investment of SEKm 24,899 as well as the assumption of interest-bearing liabilities of SEKm 12,927 and cash totalling SEKm123.

Note 15 Goodwill

In March 2016, Castellum acquired CORHEI Fastighets AB (previously a joint venture) and in June 2016, Norrporten was acquired – see Note 14. In connection with the acquisitions a goodwill item was primarily attributable to the dierence between nominal tax and estimated tax applied at the acquisition. Hence, the goodwill is entirely linked to deferred taxes.

Moreover, parts of Norrporten were resold, resulting in an impairment of goodwill when the deferred tax that was attributable to the sold properties is derecognized in its entirety.

The impairment test has been based on fair value minus selling costs. The impairment test did not indicate any additional impairment than the abovementioned.

Note 16 Shareholders' Equity and Net Asset Value

Items in shareholders' equity

The share capital as of December 31, 2016, consisted of 273,201,166 registered A-shares with one vote per share and a par value of 0.50 per share. All shares are fully paid.

As part of the acquisition of Norrporten, Castellum completed both a rights issue and an issue in kind.

The rights issue of 82,000,000 new shares, which ended in June, meant that Castellum raised approx. SEK 6.3 billion before issue costs of about SEKm 123 (SEKm 95 net after deductions for deferred tax). Furthermore, Castellum shares for a total of 27,201,166 constituted part of the compensation for the shares in Norrporten, corresponding to a value of SEKm 3,075 at change of possession. With the support of the issue authorization from the Extraordinary General Meeting on May 20, 2016, Castellum's Board decided on an issue in kind to the Second and Sixth Swedish National Pension Funds of 19,194,458 consideration shares. The Board – pursuant to the authorization from the Annual General Meeting on March 17, 2016 – also decided to transfer all previously repurchased shares, corresponding to 8,006,708. Castellum's repurchased shares were acquired in 2000 for a total purchase price of SEKm 194.

©After the rights issue and the issue in kind, Castellum has 273,201,166 outstanding shares.

The number of historical shares has been restated for the bonus issue element (i.e. the subscription right) in the completed new issue and is used in all key calculations for SEK/share. The conversion factor is 1.15.

©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).

Other capital contribution

Other capital contribution is shareholders' equity contributed by shareholders.

Currency translation reserve

Currency translation dierences as a result of foreign operations.

Currency hedge reserve

Refers to the eective part of unrealized changes in value related to currency derivatives used to hedge investments in foreign operations.

Retained earnings

Retained earnings relates to earnings earned within the Group. The Group's earlier depositions to the restricted reserves is also included in this item.

Restricted and non-restricted equity in the parent company

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 after the distribution there is full coverage for restricted equity in the parent company. Further, distribution of profits may only be made if it is justified with respect to the demands put on the amount of equity needed by the type of business, the extent and risk of operations, company and Group consolidation needs, liquidity and financial position in general.

Repurchased shares

During the year 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 repurchase of the company's own shares have been made. These repurchased shares were used in connection with the acquisition of Norrporten as an issue in kind.

Dividend

Dividend is 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 financial year 2016 is SEK 5.00 per share, SEKm 1,366 in total. The dividend is proposed for division into two payment occasions where the record date for the first payment is proposed for March 27, 2017, and the record date for the second payment is proposed for September 25, 2017. The amount is recorded as a liability after the AGM has approved the dividend.

Net asset value

Net asset value can be calculated both long and short term. Long term net asset value is based on the balance sheet, with adjustments for items that will not lead to any short term payment such as – in Castellum's case – interest rate derivatives and deferred tax liability. This means that shareholders' equity according to the balance sheet is to increase by SEKm 1,582 and SEKm 7,065, respectively. At the same time, SEKm −1,659 is to be deducted.

Actual net asset value is equity according to the balance sheet, adjusted for deferred tax liability. Present accounting principles state that the deferred tax liability shall be recognized at nominal, while the real deferred tax is substantially lower, due to the possibility to sell properties in a tax-ecient manner, as well as the time factor. The present assessment is that the discounted real deferred tax liability is equivalent to approx. 5%, meaning that an additional SEKm 3,848 will be recorded in equity.

The value range of +/− 5-10% often used in property valuations should be viewed as indication of the uncertainty that exists in assessments and calculations made. For Castellum the +/− 5% uncertainty range is equal to SEKm +/− 2,760 after tax.

* Estimated real deferred tax liability net has been calculated to 5% based on a discount rate of 3%. Further, assessments have been made that tax loss carry forwards are realized in 2 years with a nominal tax of 22%, giving a present value of deferred tax liability of 21%. In addition, the properties are realized in 50 years where 33% are sold directly with a nominal tax of 22% and 67% are sold indirectly through company disposals where the buyers tax discount is 6%. This gives a present value for deferred tax liability of 6%.

Capital structure

Castellum should have a stable capital structure with low financial risk, meaning a loan to value ratio not permanently exceeding 55% and an interest coverage ratio of at least 200%.

In the balance sheet, there are, in addition to shareholders' equity, liabilities that in principle are both interest free and amortization free and therefore can be considered as shareholders' equity. The real estate industry therefore uses loan to value as a key ratio for capital structure instead of solidity. For the same reason the net asset value can be calculated in dierent ways, as shown above.

Castellum´s objective is based on growth in cash flow and is not directly related to the net asset value. The objective is an annual growth in cash flow, i.e. income from property management per share, of at least 10%. In order to achieve this objective, net investments of at least 5% of the property value will be made yearly. At the moment, this is equivalent to approx. SEKm 3,500. All investments are to contribute to the objective of growth in income from property management within 1-2 years and have a potential asset growth of at least 10%. Sales of properties will take place when justified from a business standpoint and when an alternative investment with a higher return can be found.

Distribution of earnings

The Board has proposed that the earnings at the AGM's disposal are to be appropriated as follows: a dividend to shareholders of SEK 5.00/share – totalling SEK 1,366,005,830 – and carry forwards of SEK 16,277,679,787.

During 2017, current interest-bearing liabilities amounting to SEKm 12,649 (4,866) are due for payment. Since they are covered by unutilized long-term credit agreements, they are treated as long-term interest-bearing liabilities.

Note 18 Deferred Tax Liability/Asset

As indicated in the table below, a realization of all assets and liabilities to book value for the Group and utilization of all existing tax loss carry forwards would result in a taxable income of SEKm 34,105 (21,430). With a tax rate of 22%, this is equivalent to a tax payment of SEKm 7,503 (4,715). Castellum has deferred tax of SEKm 423 (416), which relates to properties accounted for as asset acquisitions. According to present regulations deferred tax at the time of the acquisition is not to be accounted for in the balance sheet, which is shown in the table below.

he parent company reports a deferred tax asset of SEKm 83 (78), corresponding to 22% of the unutilized tax loss carry forwards of SEKm 377 (354), and the dierence between derivatives carrying value and tax value of SEKm 61 (−).

Tax loss carry forward

As of December 31, 2016, Castellum's tax loss carry forwards are estimated at SEKm 2,392 (809). The change is presented in note 9.

Surplus- and sub value of properties for tax purposes

When calculating the tax eect on a sale of all properties in the Group, the book value in the Group of SEKm 70,757 (41,818) must be compared to the residual value for tax purposes in the legal entity, which amounts to SEKm 33,906 (19,579). This means that if all of Castellum's properties were sold, the taxable net profit would exceed the recorded profit in the Group by SEKm 36,851 (22,239).

Other provisions relate to rental guarantees, with a maximum commitment to January 31, 2019, estimated to SEKm 9 (14) and other commitments in connection with the sale of real estate amounting to a maximum of SEKm − (-).

Note 20 Derivatives

Valuation

Castellum uses interest rate derivatives in order to manage interest rate risk and achieve the desired interest rate maturity structure. This strategy means that there may be changes in value of the interest rate derivatives portfolio from time to time. These value changes occur primarily due to changes in market interest rates. Castellum also uses currency derivatives to provide financing in foreign currency, which are included in the derivative portfolio market value.

To calculate the market value of derivatives, market rates for each term and – where appropriate – exchange rates are used, as quoted on the market for the closing date. Interest rate swaps are valued by discounting future cash flows to present value, while instruments containing options are valued at current repurchase price. When calculating the fair value of derivatives adjustments are made for counterparty risk such as Credit Value Adjustments (CVA) and Debt Value Adjustments (DVA). CVA shows Castellum's risk of experiencing credit loss in the event of counterparty default, whereas DVA shows the opposite. The adjustment is calculated on counterparty level based on expected future credit exposure, risk of default, and recovery rate of exposed credits. As of December 31, 2016, the market value of the interest rate and currency derivatives portfolio amounted to SEKm -1,582 (-1,117) where fair value is established according to level 2, IFRS 13. The acquisition of Norrporten implies that interest rate derivatives corresponding to a deficit of SEKm 566 were taken over on the acquisition date.

In the balance sheet, derivatives are accounted for as long-term liabilities since the amount will not be settled in cash. However, a theoretical maturing amount during 2017 can be mathematically calculated to SEKm 445.

Counterparty risk

In order to limit counterparty risk, Castellum's derivative transactions are covered by general agreement with netting clauses (ISDA). This allows Castellum to oset positive and negative market values in the event of default.

Note 21 Financial Risk Management

Financing

Real estate is a long-term asset, requiring long-term financing allocated between equity and interest-bearing liabilities. From a security perspective, Castellum credits can be divided into the following categories:

  • Credits pledged by Castellum's receivables from subsidiaries, including property mortgages
  • Credits directly to subsidiaries, pledged by property mortgages. In the majority of cases, credits directly to subsidiary also have a guaranteed commitment from the parent company
  • Unsecured credits
  • Issuing of bonds, without pledged security
  • Issuing of commercial papers, without pledged security

All types of credit agreements contain normal termination terms, and in some cases renegotiation terms for changes in business and delisting. If the lender calls for such renegotiation and the parties cannot agree, the credit agreements have established settlement times for the credit agreement subject to such terms.

At the end of the year, utilized credits secured by pledged mortgages added up to SEKm 21,252. In addition to mortgages, the majority of credit agreements include commitments regarding loan-to-value ratio and interest coverage ratio, called financial covenants, stating a loan-to-value ratio not exceeding 65% and an interest coverage ratio of at least 175%. If the 55% loan-to-value ratio is compromised, some agreements will suer more expensive financing costs. In all cases, the guarantee to lenders is issued by a comfortable margin to Castellum's capital structure objectives.

Finance policy

Castellum's funding and management of financial risk are conducted in accordance with the finance policy adopted by the Board of Directors. Castellum is to run at a low financial risk with a loan-to-value ratio not exceeding 55% in the long run and an interest coverage ratio of at least 200%. The financial operations in Castellum are to be carried out in such a way that the need for long- and short-term funding and liquidity is ensured. In addition, net interest expenses at each time will be optimized within the given risk authorization. The finance policy outlines overall authorization and how financial risk should be reported and monitored. Financial risks are monitored and reported quarterly to the Board. As part of continuously improving and adapting financial risk management, the Board conducts an annual review of the finance policy.

The parent company holds an internal auditing function, separate from the treasury department, which provides accounting and independent control of financial management and financial risks.

Financial risk management

Castellum carries out financial transactions based on estimates of the Group's overall long-term funding needs, liquidity and chosen interest rate risk.

Hence, financial risk management is carried out on portfolio level. Portfolio management of funding means that an intra Group transaction, such as an internal loan, is not replicated by an identical external transaction. Instead, loans are drawn under short- or long-term credit agreements, based on the Group's overall funding needs.

For cost-eective management of the interest rate risk, an assessment is made of the interest rate risk that occurs when a payment is made or a new loan is drawn with a short, fixed-interest term. Thereafter, interest-rate derivative transactions are made in order to achieve the desired fixed interest term on the total amount of debts. The internal bank works with a cash pool system of bank accounts for the Group's liquidity flows.

Funding risk

Demands for long-term funding make Castellum look for long-term capital in credit agreements in order to limit funding risk. To reach maximum flexibility, bank loans are mainly revolving, i.e. the credits are usually traded within 1–3 months. Short-term revolving loans facilitate amortization at every turnover occasion without any marginal breaking costs or other compensation to lenders. The objective is to minimize 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 regularly renegotiates and – when required – enters into new credit agreements or forms of borrowing. At the end of the year, Castellum held binding credit agreements totalling SEKm 53,259 (30,325) of which SEKm 40,358 (25,141) were long-term and SEKm 12,901 (5,184) were shortterm. Of utilized long-term credits, SEKm 18,162 (19,142) were long-term credit agreements in bank and SEK 7,656 (5,999) were MTNs issued under Castellum's MTN program. Of short-term credits, SEKm 3,090 (1,527) were short-term credits in bank; SEKm 1,600 (500) were MTNs, and SEKm 7,702 (3,157) were outstanding commercial papers.

The acquisition of Norrporten resulted in a takeover of SEKm 14,172 in credit agreements. Of these, SEKm 5,498 terminated or expired. SEKm 3,269 of the remaining volume was renegotiated and guarantees were signed for SEKm 6,059 of the agreements. In addition, Castellum entered into new agreements totalling SEKm 5,300; existing agreements increased by SEKm 1,000; and SEKm 8,150 in credit agreements were renegotiated and extended. In addition, funding of SEKm 1,069 from the previous joint venture company CORHEI has been included in Castellum's interest-bearing financing for 2016. However, SEKm 447 of these expired. During the year, MTNs totalling SEKm 500 matured and SEKm 3,275 were issued, SEKm 1,000 of which were green bonds issued under Castellum's new "Green Bond Framework". ©

At year end, the average duration of Castellum's long-term credit agreements was 3.0 years (3.1).

Interest rate risk

Changes in market interest rates and credit margins aect net financial items. How quickly, and by how much, largely depends on the chosen fixed interest term. To limit the immediate impact of changes in market interest rates, Castellum has chosen to work with both short- and long-term interest rate maturity structures. For the same reason, Castellum has chosen to enter credit agreements and issue commercial papers and MTNs with varying maturities. However, changes in both interest rates and credit margins will always have an impact on net financial items over time.

The interest coverage ratio is the financial measure that describes a company's risk level and resilience to changes in net interest. Castellum has the objective of an interest coverage ratio of at least 200%. For 2016, the interest coverage ratio was 348% (351%). The average interest-rate duration per December 31, 2016, was 2.4 years (2.5), the average eective interest rate was 2.6% (2.9%) and the average interest rate for the year was 2.7% (3.0%).

Margins and fees for long-term credit agreements are established with an average duration of 2.4 years (3.1).

Cash-flow eect on income for the next twelve months at an interest rate change of +/− 1% amounts to SEKm -26 and SEKm -118, respectively. Castellum is unable to take full advantage of negative interest rates because of interest rate floors in the credit agreements. Hence, there is a negative outcome, even at a reduction of the interest rate of 1%-point

In the interest rate maturity structure, interest rate derivatives are accounted for in the earliest time segment in which they can mature. Credit margins are distributed in the interval of the underlying loans.

Currency risk

Castellum owns properties in Denmark totalling a value of SEKm 5,395 (954), which means that the Group is exposed to currency risk. The currency risk primarily occurs when income statements and balance sheets in foreign currency are translated into Swedish currency. In cases where currency derivatives are used, Castellum applies hedge accounting for net investments in foreign operations. Normally, the transaction exposure in the Group is limited and will primarily be managed by matching income and costs.

The impact on financial position due to an appreciation of SEK by 10% in relation to DKK is SEKm +72.

Counterparty risk

Counterparty risk refers to the risk that – at any given moment – is estimated to exist that Castellum's counterparties do not fulfil their contractual obligations.

Castellum limits counterparty risk by requiring high credit ratings of counterparties. High rating means that no rating agency indicates a rating that is below investment grade. Castellum's counterparties are the major Nordic banks.

Future cash flow

Future cash flows attributable to liabilities are shown in the table below. The assumption is made that a maturing loan is replaced by a new loan during the term of maturity of the underlying credit agreement and at a Stibor interest rate as listed at year end.

Hence, fair value is assessed to comply with book value. Long-term interest bearing liabilities have primarily short-term interest conditions, entailing that accrued acquisition cost corresponds to fair value.

Note 28 Subsequent Events

The Financial Reports constitute part of the Annual Report and were signed by the Board of Directors on February 1, 2017.

©The Board of Directors of Castellum AB intends to propose to the Annual General Meeting a dividend of SEK 5.00 per share, to be paid on two occasions during the year. The Income Statement and the Balance Sheet for the parent company and the Group will be adopted at Castellum AB's Annual General Meeting, which will take place on March 23, 2017.

Ingalill Östman was appointed Director of Corporate Communications at Castellum AB in early January 2017, and will join the Executive Management Team. She will assume her position in mid-January.

Jörgen Lundgren, Managing Director of the Northern Region, is resigning at his own request in 2017. Castellum has initiated a process to reduce the number of regions – from five to four. The intention is that the Northern Region, Sundsvall and Gävle, will be merged with the Stockholm Region.

Proposed Distribution of Profits

The following funds are at the Annual General Meeting disposal:
Retained profits SEK 13,048,960,746
Net income for the year SEK 4,594,724,871
SEK 17,643,685,617
The Board of Directors propose that the retained profits be appropriated as follows:
Dividend to shareholders, SEK 5.00 per share SEK 1,366,005,830
Carried forward to the new accounts SEK 16,277,679,787
SEK 17,643,685,617

The company has 273,201,166 registered shares, of which all are entitled to dividends.

The total dividend payment proposed above of SEK 1,366,005,830 can be changed if the number of the company's 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, as well as in accordance with Swedish law by application of the recommendation RFR 1 (Supplementary Accounting Rules for groups) by the Swedish Financial Reporting Board. The equity of the parent company has been calculated in accordance with Swedish law and by application of the recommendation RFR 2 (Accounting for Legal Entities) of the Swedish Financial Reporting Board.

The proposed distribution constitutes 66 per cent of the group's income from property management, which is in line with the expressed objective to distribute at least 50 per cent of the group's income from property management, having considered investment plans, consolidation needs, liquidity and overall position. The group's net income after tax amounted to SEKm 4,972. The distribution policy is based on the group's income from property manage ment, and as a result non-a¢ecting cash flow increases and/ or decreases in value of the group's properties and on interest and currency derivatives, do not normally a¢ect the distribution. Such non-a¢ecting cash flow profit or loss, have neither been taken into account in previous year's resolutions regarding distribution of profit.

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 justified 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). Accordingly, the Board of Directors would 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 of the group will, after the proposed distribution, be su¨ 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 financial position of the company and the group, and the possibilities to fulfil their obligations. The proposed dividend constitutes eight per cent of the company's equity and five per cent of the group's equity. The group's loan to value ratio and interest coverage ratio 2016 amounted to 50 per cent and 348 per cent respectively. The expressed objective for the group's capital structure, implying a loan to value ratio which not permanently exceeds 55 per cent and an interest coverage ratio of at least 200 per cent, will be maintained after the proposed dividend. The capital structure of the company and the group is sound considering the prevailing conditions of the real property business. In light of the above, the Board of Directors concludes that the company and the group have all the necessary requirements to manage future business risks and also to carry potential losses. Planned investments have been considered when deciding on the proposed dividend.

Liquidity

The proposed dividend will not a¢ect the company's or the group's ability to meet their pay-ment 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, implying that the company and the group are prepared to handle liquidity fluctuations as well as possible unexpected events.

Overall position

The Board of Directors has considered all other known conditions, which might a¢ect the fin-ancial position of the company and the group, which have not been considered within the scope of the considerations above. In this respect, no circumstances have been found that indicate that the proposed dividend would not be justified.

Evaluation to actual value

Derivatives instruments and other financial instruments have been valued to the actual value in accordance with section 4 subsection 14 a of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The valuation has presented an undervalue of SEKm 1,233 after tax, which has a¢ected the equity by the mentioned amount.

Auditor's report

This auditor's report is a translation of the Swedish language original. In the events of any di¢erences between this translation and the Swedish original the latter shall prevail.

To the general meeting of shareholders of Castellum AB (publ), corporate identity number 556475-5550

Report on the annual accounts and consolidated accounts

Opinions

We have audited the annual accounts and consolidated accounts of Castellum AB (publ) for the year 2016 except for the corporate governance report on pages 82–97. The annual accounts and consolidated accounts of the company are included on pages 6–126 in this document.

In our opinion, the annual accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the parent company as of 31 December 2016 and its financial performance and cash flow for the year then ended in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act. The consolidated accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the group as of 31 December 2016 and their financial performance and cash flow for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the EU, and the Annual Accounts Act. Our opinions do not comprise the corporate governance report on pages 82–97. The statutory administration report is consistent with the other parts of the annual accounts and consolidated accounts.

We therefore recommend that the general meeting of shareholders adopts the income statement and balance sheet for the parent company and the statement of comprehensive income and balance sheet for the group.

Basis for opinions

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISA) and generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities section. We are independent of the parent company and the group in accordance with professional ethics for accountants in Sweden and have otherwise fulfilled our ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is su¨cient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinions.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters of the audit are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the annual accounts and consolidated accounts of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of, and in forming our opinion thereon, the annual accounts and consolidated accounts as a whole, but we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Valuation of properties

Castellum records properties at fair value and the property portfolio was valued at SEKm 70,757 at 31 December 2016. The company has made an internal valuation and to provide further assurance and to validate the internal valuation 57% of the property portfolio value has been valued externally.

The book value is based on the internal valuation. The basis for the valuation is an individual assessment of each property's future earnings and the market yield. The valuation is based on judgments and estimates, which may have a significant impact on the group's result and financial position.

Our audit included but was not limited to the following procedures:

  • We have reviewed Castellum's internal valuation procedures and evaluated assumptions and application of these in the internal valuation model.
  • We have reviewed input and calculations in the internal valuation model, on property level for a selection of properties, for our assess ment of completeness and valuation.
  • We have reviewed the recording of gains from projects for ongoing projects.
  • We have obtained the external valuations and assessed if the di¢erence against the internal valuations is within the normal uncertainty range.
  • We have reviewed relevant disclosure notes to the financial state ments.

For further information, please refer to the section risks and risk management on page 74, the group's accounting principles and critical assessments on page 109 and note 11 in the annual report.

Acquisitions and disposals

During 2016 Castellum has invested totally SEKm 31,491 in properties, of which SEKm 29,372 was related to acquisitions. The acquisitions are classified as either acquisition of assets or business combinations, which a¢ect the accounting for deferred taxes. Disposals amount to SEKm 6,754.

Risks related to acquisitions and disposals mainly relate to the timing of the recognition of the transaction and that certain conditions in the agreement are not correctly reflected in the accounting of the transaction, which may have a significant impact on the group's result and financial position.

Our audit included but was not limited to the following procedures:

• We have reviewed the procedures for acquisitions and disposals of properties and for material transactions reviewed underlying agreements, timing of accounting, price and certain conditions, if any. The acquisition of Norrporten AB was included in our review.

  • We have reviewed the classification of acquisitions, as acquisi tions of assets or as business combinations.
  • We have reviewed relevant disclosure notes to the financial statements.

For further information, please refer to the section about the acquisition of Norrporten on page 23, the section about investments on page 24, the section about risks and risk management on pages 74, the group's accounting principles on page 109 and note 12, 14 and 15 in the annual report.

Accounting for income taxes

Castellum's current and deferred tax calculations are complex and include a high degree of judgment. I.a. losses carried forward, tax depreciation, deductible reconstructions, result from disposals and value changes of properties and derivatives have to be considered. Any incorrect judgment could have a significant impact on the group's result and financial position.

Our audit included but was not limited to the following procedures:

  • We have reviewed Castellum's procedures for calculating current and deferred taxes and also reviewed calculations of current and deferred taxes against underlying documents and evaluated the calculations against current tax legislation.
  • We have reviewed the treatment of realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives and property disposals in the tax calculations.
  • We have reviewed relevant disclosure notes to the financial statements.
  • Our tax specialists have been involved in the review procedures.

For further information, please refer to the section taxes on page 72, the section risks and risk management on page 74, the group's accounting principles on page 109 and note 10 and 18 in the annual report.

Implementation of new ERP system

Castellum has in 2016 implemented a new ERP system for the main part of the group. In connection with the change of the ERP system an upgrade was made of the property management system.

Changing ERP system is complex and is an extensive activity that could have an impact on Castellum's financial reporting. We have therefore considered the change of the ERP system as a key audit matter.

Our audit included but was not limited to the following procedures:

  • We have reviewed the project management for the transition to the new ERP system.
  • We have reviewed the company's way of testing the new ERP system and the handling of deviations identified during the testing.
  • We have reviewed the company's procedures for verifying the transfer of information and data from the old to the new ERP system.

• We have reviewed the authorization structure and allocation of responsibilities in the new ERP system.

Our IT auditors have been involved in the review.

Other information than the annual accounts and consolidated accounts

This document also contains other information than the annual accounts and consolidated accounts and is found on pages 1–5 and 132–162. The board of directors and the managing director are responsible for this other information.

Our opinion on the annual accounts and consolidated accounts does not cover this other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion regarding this other information.

In connection with our audit of the annual accounts and consolidated accounts, our responsibility is to read the information identified above and consider whether the information is materially inconsistent with the annual accounts and consolidated accounts. In this procedure we also take into account our knowledge otherwise obtained in the audit and assess whether the information otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If we, based on the work performed concerning this information, conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the board of directors and the managing director

The board of directors and the managing director are responsible for the preparation of the annual accounts and consolidated accounts and that they give a fair presentation in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and, concerning the consolidated accounts, in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the EU. The board of directors and the managing director are also responsible for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of annual accounts and consolidated accounts that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the annual accounts and consolidated accounts, the board of directors and the managing director are responsible for the assessment of the company's and the group's ability to continue as a going concern. They disclose, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting. The going concern basis of accounting is however not applied if the board of directors and the managing director intends to liquidate the company, to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Audit Committee shall, without prejudice to the board of directors' responsibilities and tasks in general, among other things oversee the company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's responsibility

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the annual accounts and consolidated accounts as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these annual accounts and consolidated accounts.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISA, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the annual accounts and consolidated accounts, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is su¨cient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinions. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the over ride of internal control.
  • obtain an understanding of the company's internal control relevant to our audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the e¢ectiveness of the company's internal control.
  • evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the board of directors and the managing director.
  • conclude on the appropriateness of the board of directors' and the managing director's use of the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual accounts and consolidated accounts. We also draw a conclusion, based on the audit evidence obtained, as to whether any material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the company's and the group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the annual accounts and consolidated accounts or, if such disclo sures are inadequate, to modify our opinion about the annual accounts and consolidated accounts. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause a company and a group to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the annual accounts and consolidated accounts, including the disclo sures, and whether the annual accounts and consolidated accounts represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

• obtain su¨cient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the group to express an opinion on the consolidated accounts. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and perfor mance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our opinions.

We must inform the board of directors of, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit. We must also inform of significant audit findings during our audit, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identified.

We must also provide the board of directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the board of directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the annual accounts and consolidated accounts, including the most important assessed risks for material misstatement, and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in the auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in the auditor's report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. CASTELLUM ANNUAL REPORT 2016 AUDITOR'S REPORT

Report on other legal and regulatory requirements

Opinions

In addition to our audit of the annual accounts and consolidated accounts, we have also audited the administration of the board of directors and the managing director of Castellum AB (publ) for the year 2016 and the proposed appropriations of the company's profit or loss.

We recommend to the general meeting of shareholders that the profit be appropriated in accordance with the proposal in the statutory administration report and that the members of the board of directors and the managing director be discharged from liability for the financial year.

Basis for Opinions

We conducted the audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities section. We are independent of the parent company and the group in accordance with professional ethics for accountants in Sweden and have otherwise fulfilled our ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is su¨cient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinions.

Responsibilities of the board of directors and the managing director The board of directors is responsible for the proposal for appropriations of the company's profit or loss. At the proposal of a dividend, this includes an assessment of whether the dividend is justifiable considering the requirements which the company's and the group's type of operations, size and risks place on the size of the parent company's and the group's equity, consolidation requirements, liquidity and position in general.

The board of directors is responsible for the company's organization and the administration of the company's a¢airs. This includes among other things continuous assessment of the company's and the group's financial situation and ensuring that the company's organization is designed so that the accounting, management of assets and the company's financial a¢airs otherwise are controlled in a reassuring manner. The managing director shall manage the ongoing administration according to the board of directors' guidelines and instructions and among other matters take measures that are necessary to fulfill the company's accounting in accordance with law and handle the management of assets in a reassuring manner.

Auditor's responsibility

Our objective concerning the audit of the administration, and thereby our opinion about discharge from liability, is to obtain audit evidence to assess with a reasonable degree of assurance whether any member of the board of directors or the managing director in any material respect:

  • has undertaken any action or been guilty of any omission which can give rise to liability to the company, or
  • in any other way has acted in contravention of the Companies Act, the Annual Accounts Act or the Articles of Association.

Our objective concerning the audit of the proposed appropriations of the company's profit or loss, and thereby our opinion about this, is to assess with reasonable degree of assurance whether the proposal is in accordance with the Companies Act.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden will always detect actions or omissions that can give rise to liability to the company, or that the proposed appropriations of the company's profit or loss are not in accordance with the Companies Act.

As part of an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. The examination of the administration and the proposed appropriations of the company's profit or loss is based primarily on the audit of the accounts. Additional audit procedures performed are based on our professional judgment with starting point in risk and materiality. This means that we focus the examination on such actions, areas and relationships that are material for the operations and where deviations and violations would have particular importance for the company's situation. We examine and test decisions undertaken, support for decisions, actions taken and other circumstances that are relevant to our opinion concerning discharge from liability. As a basis for our opinion on the board of directors' proposed appropriations of the company's profit or loss we examined the board of directors' reasoned statement and a selection of supporting evidence in order to be able to assess whether the proposal is in accordance with the Companies Act.

Auditor's review of the corporate governance report

The board of directors is responsible for the corporate governance report on pages 82–97 and that it has been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.

We have performed our review in accordance with FAR's statement RevU 16 The auditor's review of the corporate governance report. This means that our review of the corporate governance report is limited compared to an audit in accordance with ISA and generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. We believe that our review is su¨cient and provides a basis for our opinions.

A corporate governance report has been prepared. Disclosures in accordance with chapter 6, 6 § second section, item 2–6 in the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and chapter 7, 31 § second section of the same law are consistent with other parts of the annual accounts and consolidated accounts and in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.

Auditor's Limited Assurance Report on Castellum AB's Sustainability Report

This is the translation of the auditor's report in Swedish.

To Castellum AB (publ)

Introduction

We have been engaged by the Board of Directors of Castellum AB (publ) to undertake a limited assurance engagement of the Sustainability Report of Castellum AB (publ) for the year 2016. The Company has defined the scope of the Sustainability Report on page 1.

Responsibilities of the Board of Directors and the Executive Management for the Sustainability Report

The Board of Directors and the Executive Management are responsible for the preparation of the Sustainability Report in accordance with the applicable criteria, as explained on page 162 in the Sustainability Report, and are the parts of the Sustainability Reporting Guidelines (published by The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI)) which are applicable to the Sustainability Report, as well as the accounting and calculation principles that the Company has developed. This responsibility also includes the internal control relevant to the preparation of a Sustainability Report that is free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.

Responsibilities of the auditor

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Sustainability Report based on the limited assurance procedures we have performed.

We conducted our limited assurance engagement in accordance with RevR 6 Assurance of Sustainability Reports issued by FAR. A limited assurance engagement consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for the preparation of the Sustainability Report, and applying analytical and other limited

CASTELLUM ANNUAL REPORT 2016 assurance procedures. The procedures performed in a limited assurance engagement vary in nature from, and are less in extent than for, a reasonable assurance engagement conducted in accordance with IAASB's Standards on Auditing and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The firm applies ISQC 1 (International Standard on Quality Control) and accordingly maintains a comprehensive system of quality control including documented policies and procedures regarding compliance with ethical requirements, professional standards and applicable legal and regulatory requirements. The procedures performed consequently do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in a reasonable assurance engagement. Accordingly, we do not express a reasonable assurance conclusion.

Our procedures are based on the criteria defined by the Board of Directors and the Executive Management as described above. We consider these criteria suitable for the preparation of the Sustainability Report. We believe that the evidence we have obtained is su¨cient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion below.

Conclusion

Based on the limited assurance procedures we have performed, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Sustainability Report, is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the criteria defined by the Board of Directors and Executive Management.
