The mission is crystal clear

"Back to Basics"

The mission given to all of us at Castellum from the board and owners is crystal clear: Castellum must become more profitable. It's a fun and exciting mission. My experience is that I'm not the only one at Castellum who feels this way.

Worse before it gets better?

Yes, that's probably how it will be. We had a positive net leasing of SEK 16 million in the third quarter, but throughout 2025, terminations have far exceeded new leases.

Leasing, leasing, leasing

When it comes to properties, people usually say location, location, location. When it comes to property management, it's now leasing, leasing, leasing. Our vacancy rate has increased by almost 4 percentage points since 2020. It's a tough market, especially in the big cities, and we must adapt. Now we need to be faster and more flexible.Use every single tool in the toolbox. High vacancy is not sustainable, neither economically nor from a sustainability perspective.

Turning over every stone

We are now turning over every stone to become more efficient and reduce costs. Fewer internal meetings, more leasing instead. Fewer consultants. Fewer trips and fewer newspaper subscriptions. Turning over stones is something we will continue to do. It's something you always have to do.

Back to basics

For Castellum, it's now 'Back to Basics'. Leasing, cutting costs both in property management and at headquarters. Owning the right commercial properties in the right locations. Selling and buying when good opportunities arise. More entrepreneurship and decreased bureaucracy.

Performance analysis

Comparisons shown in brackets are made with the corresponding period in the previous year except in sections describing assets and liabilities, where comparisons are made with the end of the previous year.

Income

Income totalled SEK 7,196 M (7,405). Completed property sales meant lower income of SEK 125 M while income for development properties decreased by SEK 8 M against the comparison period. This is due to only a few projects being completed while additional development properties were added. Income in the like-for-like portfolio remained unchanged compared to previous year. The index contributed positively to income, but was offset by higher vacancies. Furthermore, part of the change in income is attributable to other income of SEK 64 M related to insurance compensation during the comparison period.

The economic occupancy rate was 90.0 per cent (91.2). The decrease in the occupancy rate is attributable to the underlying rising vacancy of 0.8 percentage points, as well as the effects of a general 0.4-percentage point adjustment of vacancy rents.

Costs

Direct property costs totalled SEK 1,726 M (1,736). Costs in the likefor-like portfolio increased SEK 40 M, corresponding to 2.5 per cent, excluding currency effects. The direct property costs in the like-forlike portfolio decreased early in the year as a result of the mild winter but subsequently rose, primarily as a result of increased rental losses totalling SEK –43 M (–17).

Property administration for the period amounted to SEK 403 M (397), corresponding to SEK 104 per square metre (102) and central administration costs totalled SEK 176 M (178).

Income from associated companies and joint ventures

Income from associated companies and joint ventures consists of Castellum's share of Entra ASA's and Halvorsäng Fastighets AB's earnings. Castellum's share of the associated companies' and joint ventures' income from property management is included in the line item "of which income from property management".

As of the balance sheet date, impairment was reversed due to higher net reinstatement value for Entra. The exchange-rate impact on the Entra holding is recognised in other comprehensive income. For further information on Entra and Halvorsäng, refer to page 9.

Net financial items

Net financial items totalled SEK –1,610 M (–1,573). The higher costs compared to the preceding year are attributable in part to the expiration of interest rate derivatives with low fixed interest rates and in part to rising costs for currency hedging with short maturities. This effect was offset by renegotiations to lower margins as well as lower underlying market rates.

The average closing interest rate for the loan portfolio, including interest-rate and currency hedging with long maturities, was 3.1 per cent (3.2) on the balance sheet date. The average interest rate provides a snapshot of the latest fixed-interest rate term for the derivative and loan portfolios on the balance sheet date and excludes certain items in net financial items such as the accruals of borrowing fees, other financial costs, currency hedging with short maturities and, in some cases, currency effects.

Income from property management

Income from property management totalled SEK 3,474 M (3,735), corresponding to SEK 7.06 per share (7.58). The decrease in income from property management is related primarily to rising vacancy rates and higher financial costs. Moreover, sales in the last year had a negative impact on net operating income, whereas the acquisitions for the year have not yet made any significant contribution.

Castellum's participations in the associated companies Entra and joint venture Halvorsäng added SEK 352 M (352) to income from property management.

Changes in value

Properties

During the period, Castellum recognised unrealised changes in value of SEK –1,412 M (–1,544), driven primarily by changes in cash flow assessments on individual properties during the period. The average exit yield for Castellum's portfolio totalled 5.63 per cent at the end of the period, 1 basis point higher compared to the same point in time in the preceding year, and unchanged since the start of the year. During the period, 17 per cent of the property value was externally assessed. The external valuations are on par with the internal valuations, confirming Castellum's assessed market value.

Castellum's completed property sales during the period resulted in a realised change in value of SEK 12 M (−88), where SEK –6 M is sales and SEK 18 M is attributable to reversal of exchange rate effects recognised in other comprehensive income.

Net sale price amounted to SEK 618 M after deduction for deferred tax and transaction costs of SEK -7 M. The total underlying property value in the sales was thus SEK 625 M, a difference of SEK 1 M compared with the latest assessment of SEK 624 M.

Goodwill

Changes in goodwill totalled SEK –60 M (–128), of which SEK –20 M (–68) was attributable to divestments, and SEK –40 M (–60) was attributable to negative changes in value on properties.

Derivatives

Castellum holds both interest rate and currency derivatives. In profit for the period, the derivatives generated a change in value of SEK –869 M (–483), which includes both realised and unrealised changes in value of SEK 303 M (–92) and SEK –1,172 M (–391), respectively. These changes in value are attributable to falling swap rates and changes in exchange rates during the period.

Changes in value resulting from hedging relationships totalled SEK 130 M (100) and are reported in other comprehensive income.

Tax

Total tax for the period was SEK –307 M (–360), of which SEK –262 M (–170) pertained to current tax. Applying nominal tax rate to income before tax, the total theoretical tax is SEK –280 M. The difference of SEK –27 M is due primarily to non-deductible interest. The remaining tax loss carry forwards, estimated at SEK 359 M (588), are restricted for use in parts of the Group.

1. Calculated solely based on the area attributable to investment properties

The difference between the net operating income of SEK 4,994 M reported above and the net operating income of SEK 4,908 M in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income is attributable to the deduction of the net operating income of SEK 8 M in properties divested during the period, the SEK 117 M upward adjustment of the net operating income on properties acquired/completed during the period as if they had been owned or been completed during the entire period. Remaining SEK -23 M is net operating income related to coworking.

Tenants

Castellum's exposure to individual tenants is extremely low, with a lease portfolio that has a large spread across many different tenants, customer sizes and industries. This spreads the risk for rent losses and vacancies. The Group has approximately 7,400 commercial leases and 500 residential leases, and their distribution in terms of size is presented in the table below.

The single largest lease accounts for 1.2 per cent of the Group's total rental income, while the corresponding figure for the single largest customer is 2.8 per cent. As at 30 September 2025, the remaining average length of contract was 3.6 years (3.6).

Net leasing

During the period, Castellum signed leases with an annual rental value of SEK 532 M (399). Notices of termination amounted to SEK –698 M (–409), of which SEK –111 M (–22) were bankruptcies and SEK –42 M (–22) were notices of termination with more than 18 months left of contract. Net lettings for the period thus totalled SEK –166 M (–10). The time difference between reported net leasing and the income effect thereof is estimated to be between 6–15 months

in investment properties and 12–24 months for development properties. Normally, the impact of reported bankruptcies on earnings is immediate.

Annual rent corresponding to SEK 197 M (293) was renegotiated during the period, with an average change in rent of 1.6 per cent (–1.0). Leases valued at SEK 1,345 M (1,183) were extended with no changes to terms.

Financing

Access to external capital is deemed to be very good, and margins in both capital markets and banks are at historically low levels. The proportion of interest-bearing liabilities hedged (more than 1 year) on the balance sheet date was 71 per cent (70). The floating rate portion comprises primarily exposure to Stibor 3m.

Average Stibor 3m was 2.11 per cent during the quarter, compared to 2.28 per cent during the second quarter of the year. S&P confirmed the credit rating of BBB with a stable outlook during the quarter. Castellum also has a credit rating of Baa2 with a stable outlook from Moody's.

Sustainability

Castellum updates green framework and retains Nasdaq Green Designation

During the third quarter, Castellum updated its Green Financing Framework in line with international guidelines and market practice. This framework ensures that capital is channelled toward properties and projects that promote a more sustainable property sector. Nasdaq has again awarded Castellum's share with its Green Equity Designation – a status that only a few major property companies on the stock exchange enioy.

Castellum is also working further on implementing its new climate targets, which were validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) earlier in the year. This target means that the company undertakes to achieve net-zero GHG emissions throughout its value chain by 2040 at the latest.

Sustainability goals and strategy

Castellum's sustainability strategy, The Sustainable City, encompasses 17 measurable targets in three areas of focus: Future-proofed Assets, Sustainable Workplaces and Sound Business. An integral part of the business model, this strategy promotes energy optimisation, an increase in the proportion of certified buildings and mitigated sustainability risks. It also includes investments in attractive, inclusive workplaces as well as responsible business with clear procedures for ethics, regulatory compliance and the supply chain.

By combining environmental, social and governance-related aspects, Castellum is strengthening its competitiveness and long-term profitability while the company promotes a more sustainable society.

Sustainability results

During the year, Castellum was named one of the world's most sustainable companies by TIME Magazine – the only Nordic property company on the list.

Circular construction efforts have taken new steps forward. In Kista, Castellum has partnered with Ragn-Sells to operate a re-use centre that serves as a logistics hub for collection, interim storage and sale of construction materials. In Uppsala, the company – in partnership with several other property operators – signed a declaration of intent to establish a circular materials hub and develop a market for re-use in the region. Additionally, Castellum has joined several other re-use centres around the country in order to increase the use of circular construction materials.

For Castellum, energy efficiency is a priority. In the like-for-like asset portfolio, the normalised energy savings LTM amounted to –7 per cent. Since 2021, the company has reduced its energy consumption by 13 per cent throughout its portfolio, which exceeds the target of an 11 per cent reduction by the end of 2025, compared to 2021. The number of buildings with a sustainability certification continues to increase. As of the third quarter of 2025, these certificates encompass 306 properties, encompassing 56 per cent of the property area. Energy optimisation projects corresponding to just over SEK 175 M have been completed or commenced during the last twelve months. The average energy savings over the last ten years in the like-for-like asset portfolio amounts to 3.5 per cent per year.

Castellum is continuing its venture in renewable energy through extending its "100 on Solar" programme, with the target of building 200 new solar PV systems by 2030. Production from the solar PV panels that Castellum has constructed as part of this program corresponds to 24 per cent of the company's annual energy needs.

Acquisitions and transfers of own shares

The 2024 AGM gave a mandate to the Board up until the next AGM to acquire and transfer shares in order to ensure delivery of shares to participants as part of the 2025/2028 performance share programme and to safeguard against Castellum's exposure to costs for social security contributions that could arise as a result of the 2025/2028 performance share programme. Shares may be acquired, but at a maximum so that after each acquisition, the company holds at most 10 per cent of all shares in the company.

During the interim period, 344,000 shares were repurchased at an average price of SEK 114.15 per share. On 30 September 2025, the company's holding of treasury shares amounted to 499,403 shares, corresponding to 0.1 per cent of the number of shares registered.

Dividend yield

The recent AGM approved a dividend of SEK 2.48 per share (—) corresponding to a dividend yield of 2.3 per cent (—) based on the share price at the end of the period. The dividend will be paid out on four occasions, at SEK 0.62 per share each. A dividend was paid on two occasions during the period with record dates of 9 May and 30 June.

Apart from the factors that have expressly been commented on, other factors such as economic growth, interest-rate levels, financing terms, yield requirements on property assets and political decisions may also have a material impact on the actual outcome.

Accounting policies

Castellum's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, and for the Parent Company in accordance with Chapter 9 of the Annual Accounts Act. Moreover, the relevant provisions in the Annual Accounts Act and the Securities Markets Act have been applied. For the Group and the Parent Company, the same accounting policies and bases for calculation as in the latest annual report have been applied. In addition to the financial statements, disclosures in accordance with IAS 34.16A appear in the remainder of this interim report. Preparation of the interim report requires company management to make assessments and estimates, and to make assumptions that have impacted the application of the accounting policies and the recognised amounts of assets, liabilities, income and costs. The actual outcome may deviate from these estimates and assessments. The critical assessments made and the sources of uncertainty in existing estimates are the same as those in the latest published annual report.

Valuation of the asset portfolio

Castellum internally assesses its entire property holdings on a quarterly basis, corresponding to level 3 in IFRS 13. 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 property portfolio. The value of the property portfolio is calculated in a 10 to 20-year cash flow model as the total present value of net operating income minus remaining investments on ongoing projects, during the calculation period of 10 to 20 years, and the present value of the estimated residual value after the cash-flow period. The residual value comprises the present value of all future net operating income after the cash-flow period. The estimated market value of undeveloped land and building rights are added to this. Accordingly, valuation is conducted pursuant to IFRS 13, level 3. The assessment pertaining to the future earnings and the yield requirement, which are the weightiest value-driving factors in the valuation model, are crucial for the calculated value of the property portfolio. The yield requirement is derived from market transactions on objects of equal value, known as the local price method. The earnings are based on existing contracts and the most likely lease scenarios in the respective properties. For further information on Castellum's valuation of its property portfolio, refer to Note 10 in the Annual Report for financial year 2024.

Valuation of financial assets and liabilities

To calculate the fair value of our interest-rate and currency derivatives, market rates for each term and exchange rates as quoted in the market for the closing date are used. Interest rate swaps are valued by discounting future cash flows to present value. When calculating the fair value of derivatives, adjustments are made for counterparty risk in the form of Credit Value Adjustments (CVA) and Debit 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 at the counterparty level based on expected future credit exposure, risk of default and the recovery rate of exposed credits.

Related-party transactions

Remuneration has been paid to Board members and senior executives pertaining to work performed. Additional related-party transactions also took place with Sweco, which is deemed to be a related party since one of Castellum's previous Board members held an executive position within the company. The total value of related-party transactions with Sweco is estimated at approximately SEK 12 M, net until 18 July 2025 when the Board member left her position.

Related-party transactions also encompass Castellum invoicing of SEK 0.9 M to Halvorsäng for services performed pertaining to project management and administration. The company is a joint venture in partnership with Göteborgs Hamn AB. All related-party transactions took place at arm's length.

Signing of the Report

The CEO hereby gives their assurance that the interim report provides a true and fair view of the Parent Company's and Group's operations, financial position and results and as well as the significant risks and uncertainties facing the company and companies within the Group.

Independent Auditor's Report on the review of interim financial information

To the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer of Castellum Aktiebolag (publ), Corporate ID No. 556475–5550

Introduction

We have reviewed the interim report for Castellum Aktiebolag (publ) for the period January 1 - September 30, 2025. The Board of Directors and the President are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review has a different focus and is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and other generally accepted auditing practices. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed based on an audit.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not, in all material respects, prepared for the Group in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act, and for the Parent Company in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.

Alternative performance measures

A number of the financial alternative performance measures presented by Castellum are not defined in accordance with the IFRS accounting standards. However, the company believes that these metrics provide useful supplementary information both to investors and to Castellum management, as they facilitate evaluation of company performance. It is to be noted that, since not all companies calculate financial key metrics in the same manner, these are

not always comparable to metrics used by other companies. These financial metrics should therefore not be seen as a substitute for metrics defined according to IFRS. Unless otherwise stated, the table below presents metrics, along with their reconciliation, which are not defined according to IFRS. Furthermore, definitions for these metrics also appear on page 29.

Alternative performance measures

Castellum applies the European Securities and Market Authority (ESMA) guidelines on alternative performance measures. According to these guidelines, an alternative performance measure is a financial measurement of historical or future earnings trends, financial position, financial earnings or cash flows that are not identified or indicated in the applicable rules for financial reporting (IFRS® reporting standards and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act). Castellum is also a member of the European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA), which is why the financial key metrics EPRA EPS, EPRA NRV, EPRA NTA, EPRA NDV, EPRA LTV and EPRA vacancy rate are reported.

Dividend yield

Declared dividend as a percentage of the share price at the end of the period. The key metrics illustrate how much of their investment the shareholders receive back in dividends.

Unencumbered assets ratio

Total carrying amount of assets that are not pledged as collateral, as a percentage of total assets. This key metric illustrates financial risk.

Return on equity

Income after tax as a percentage of average equity. This key metric illustrates the capacity for generating earnings on the Group's equity.

Loan-to-value ratio

Interest-bearing liabilities after deduction for cash and cash equivalents as a percentage of total assets. This key metric illustrates financial risk.

Loan-to-value ratio, Property

Interest-bearing liabilities after deduction for cash and cash equivalents as a percentage of the properties' fair value. This key metric illustrates financial risk.

EPRA EPS – Earnings per Share

Income from property management adjusted for current tax on income from property management, divided by the average number of shares. The estimate of current tax takes into account factors such as depreciation and reconstruction that are deductible for tax purposes. This key metric is a measurement of earnings generation in the operation, less nominal tax.

EPRA NRV – Net Reinstatement Value

Equity as recognised adjusted for hybrid bonds, declared and undistributed dividends, carrying

Other key metrics and definitions

Number of shares

Registered number of shares – the number of shares registered at a given point in time. Number of shares outstanding – the number of shares registered with a deduction for the company's own repurchased shares at a given point in time.

Average number of shares – the weighted average number of shares outstanding during a given period.

Return on total capital

Income before tax with reversed net interest and changes in values on derivatives over the last 12 months as a percentage of average total capital.

Data per share

Calculation of income and cash flow per share uses the average number of shares, and calculation of assets, equity and net asset value per share uses the number of shares outstanding.

Economic occupancy rate

Rental income accounted for during the period, less discounts, as a percentage of rental value for properties owned at the end of the period. Properties acquired/completed during the period have been restated as if they had been owned or completed

amounts of derivatives, goodwill and nominal deferred tax. This key metric describes the total equity that Castellum manages on behalf of its owners.

EPRA NTA – Net Tangible Assets

Equity as recognised adjusted for hybrid bonds, declared and undistributed dividends, carrying amounts of derivatives and goodwill adjusted for the estimated fair value of deferred tax instead of nominal deferred tax. This key metric corresponds to EPRA NRV, but with the difference that deferred tax is based on estimated fair value.

EPRA NDV – Net Disposal Value

Equity as recognised adjusted for hybrid bonds, declared and undistributed dividends and carrying amounts of goodwill. This key metric illustrates the owners' share of equity.

EPRA LTV – Loan to Value

Interest-bearing liabilities with additions for hybrid bonds, adjusted for the currency portion of the market value of hedging for loans in foreign currencies, and less cash and cash equivalents. Negative working capital increases interest-bearing liabilities, whereas positive working capital is added to the value of investment properties. Principal associated companies are included in proportion to the share owned. This key metric illustrates financial risk.

Income from property management

Income before tax adjusted for change in value of properties, derivatives, financial holdings and goodwill, as well as Castellum's share of earnings from associated companies and joint ventures excluding income from property management. Income from property management is a measurement of earnings

during the whole year, while properties disposed of have been excluded entirely. Development projects and undeveloped land have been excluded.

EPRA Vacancy rate

The estimated market rent for vacant leases divided by the rental value on an annual basis for the entire asset portfolio excluding properties classified as development properties.

Property type

The property's primary rental value with regard to the type of premises. Premises for purposes other than the primary use may therefore be found within a property type. Castellum's property types are: office, public sector properties (customers that are directly or indirectly tax funded), warehouse/light industry, retail and development projects and land.

Property costs

This item includes both direct property costs, such as operating expenses, maintenance, site leasehold fees and property tax, as well as indirect costs for leases and property administration.

generation in the operation, after financial costs but excluding changes in value.

Rental and service income in the like-for-like portfolio

Rental and service income from properties that formed part of the portfolio throughout the reporting period and the entire comparative period. Development properties, coworking and properties that were acquired or sold are not included. This key metric illustrates the performance of rental and service income excluding non-recurring effects – for example, early vacancies – unaffected by acquired and sold properties.

Net investments

Net of property acquisitions, investments in the existing property portfolio and property sales. This key metric illustrates the investment volume.

Net debt/EBITDA

Interest-bearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents in relation to net operating income less central administrative costs over the last 12 months. This key metric illustrates financial risk.

Interest coverage ratio

Income from property management after reversal of net financial items, as a percentage of net interest items. This key metric illustrates financial risk.

Secured debt to total assets ratio

Secured debts as a percentage of total assets. This key metric illustrates financial risk.

Surplus ratio

Net operating income adjusted for coworking and other income, as a percentage of rental income and service income excluding coworking. This key metric clarifies the profitability of the properties.

Rental value

Rental and service income with the addition of estimated market rent for vacant spaces.

Contract value

Rental and service income on an annual basis for Castellum's leases.

SEK per square metre

Property-related key metrics, expressed in terms of SEK per square metre, are based on properties owned at the end of the period. Properties acquired/ completed during the year have been restated as if they had been owned or completed for the whole year, while properties disposed of have been completely excluded. Development projects and undeveloped land have been excluded. In the interim accounts, key metrics have been recalculated on an annual basis, disregarding seasonal variations normally occurring in operations.

Net leasing

Rental and service income for leases signed during the period for the entire property portfolio, less rental income for leases terminated during the period.
