INTERIM REPORT JANUARY – MARCH 2026

CATTOLA

Improved underlying earnings in an uncertain market

"Catella delivers a stable first quarter, with underlying earnings improving year on year. This was achieved despite heightened uncertainty in our external environment. Against this backdrop, we continue to strengthen the Group through sharper focus and higher efficiency, supported by organizational initiatives already implemented. In an uncertain market, disciplined execution, agility and speed will remain key differentiators for long-term success".

Rikke Lykke, Group CEO

Progress during the quarter

Financial results

  • Net sales in the quarter amounted to SEK 296 M (325)
  • Operating profit was SEK -45 M (-43)
  • Operating profit adjusted for items affecting comparability, increased by SEK 26 M compared with the previous year.
  • Operating profit attributable to Catella’s shareholders was SEK -45 M (-44)
  • Profit attributable to Catella’s shareholder was SEK -50 M (-182)
  • Earnings per share before and after dilution was SEK -0.57 (-2.06)

Assets under management

  • Assets under management (AUM) amounted to SEK 160 Bn at the end of the period, an increase of SEK 4 Bn compared to the fourth quarter of 2025. The increase is mainly driven by a reporting change implemented in 2026, under which assets under development are included in AUM. Revenue from these assets was already reflected in the comparison period, whereas AUM was not.

CEO COMMENTS

The first quarter of 2026 saw renewed macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, adding to an already complex environment. Escalating tensions in the Middle East and continued energy-market volatility again weighed on investor sentiment, delaying decisions and dampening activity in both the global economy and real estate transaction markets. While we do not expect a prolonged downturn in our base case, these developments have reinforced a "wait-and-see" approach and contributed to a slower recovery in market activity.

Despite this, underlying market conditions are gradually improving. The repricing phase in European real estate is largely behind us, with early signs of stabilisation: modest value recovery, improving financing conditions and steadily increasing transaction activity. Liquidity, however, remains selective and uneven, favouring high-quality assets and income-oriented strategies.

Against this backdrop, I am pleased that our underlying results improved during the quarter, adjusting for last year's positive non-recurring effects, including the reversal of provisions and rental income from Kaktus Towers, divested in May 2025. This performance reflects the resilience of our core business and continued progress in executing on our strategy.

Looking ahead, we see clear opportunities in the current market despite ongoing external uncertainty. In particularly, we see opportunities in affordable rental housing and operational living concepts, such as student housing, senior housing, co-living, and serviced apartments, focused on dense urban areas across the Nordics, Spain, and Germany. Residential markets continue to benefit from structural supply shortages, low vacancy, and population growth in major cities. Operational living formats offer advantages through shorter lease cycles, flexible pricing, and specialized management.

During the quarter we took important strategic steps to further strengthen the Group. A new organizational structure has been implemented. We manage our business in two business areas: Investment Management and Corporate Finance. This change is intended to strengthen transparency, accountability and operational efficiency. While Balance Sheet investment, from an operational standpoint, is no longer a separate business area, we will continue to separate these assets in our monitoring and reporting.

A part of our continued strategy is to identify profitable, less capital-intensive co-investments with third parties to grow assets under management in the Investment Management business area. In the first quarter, we completed an investment in line with our new investment criteria, establishing a joint venture with Pictet Alternative Advisors to

deliver 205 apartments in Greater Copenhagen. The structure, combining a limited equity commitment with a long-term development mandate, is intended to generate both fixed and variable fee income while maintaining capital efficiency and scalability.

In parallel, we continued to align key functions with our organizational structure, enabling more effective resource allocation towards higher-return opportunities. This work remains ongoing and is aimed at strengthening collaboration across our pan-European operations. With a presence in twelve countries, greater alignment and agility will enable us to operate more efficiently, respond faster to market changes and act more globally while leveraging strong local expertise.

At the beginning of April, we repurchased own bonds corresponding to SEK 140 million, which will reduce our debt and lower interest costs. While straightforward, this is an important step in strengthening our financial position and flexibility. Subject to the annual general meeting to be held on 12 May 2026 resolving to authorise the board of directors to resolve on repurchase of the company's own shares, the board of directors intends to launch a share repurchase program of own Class B shares of up to approximately SEK 100 million following the 2026 annual general meeting to further optimize our capital structure.

In the first quarter, we report an operating profit of SEK -45 million (-43) with a total income of SEK 303 million (341), with recurring revenues representing 67%. Adjusted for prior-year items affecting comparability, primarily rental income from Kaktus Towers, adjusted total income for the first quarter 2025 amounted to SEK 314 million. The 2026 adjusted operating profit was SEK 26 million better than previous year.

Increase in Assets Under Management

Total AUM increased from SEK 155 Bn at the end of 2025 to SEK 160 Bn as of 31 March 2026. The increase is driven by a reporting change implemented in 2026, under which assets under development are now included in AUM. Excluding this effect, AUM declined by SEK 3 Bn during the quarter, reflecting softening valuations, terminations of Asset Management mandates in Finland and redemptions. Revenue from these assets was already recognised in the comparison period, whereas the corresponding AUM was not previously reported.

As the European real estate fundamentals continue to improve, we expect AUM to increase, with a further improvement in earnings within the Investment Management business area.

CATELLA

The transaction market slowly picking up

Transaction markets continued to improve gradually during the quarter, although uncertainty led to some transactions being postponed. Momentum strengthened and we completed attractive mandates, particularly in the Nordics and Spain. At the same time, we also saw increased activity in France, especially in the regional markets.

The Corporate Finance business area reported total income of SEK 73 million, flat to previous year (73) and a 2026 first quarter operating profit of SEK -29 million, compared to -33 million in 2025.

A notable achievement during the quarter was the mandate executed by Corporate Finance Denmark, acting as financial advisor to one of Europe's largest asset managers, DWS, in the refinancing of a large-scale residential development project in Herlev, Denmark. The refinancing, amounting to DKK 1 billion, was completed following the project's development and leasing. The mandate underscores the strength of our advisory business, even in a selective market.

Future outlook

Looking ahead, I expect the market to continue improving gradually, although the path will not be linear and uncertainty will remain. Compared with a year ago, we are in a stronger position and well placed to act. Our priorities are clear: resilience and quality of earnings over time, operational excellence and a focus on selected targeted investments.

As outlined in our House View, the most attractive opportunities remain in segments supported by structural demand such as affordable housing. At the same time, opportunities are emerging more broadly. As pricing adjust, retail, particularly non-discretionary segments, and selected logistics investments are becoming more attractive. In offices, the flight to quality continues, underscoring the importance of location and sustainability.

In summary, we made steady progress this quarter. With a clearer structure, a more focused organization and a strengthened balance sheet, I am confident in our ability to scale and build long-term value.

I would like to thank Michel Fischier, who has stepped down as Catella's CFO after five years and to welcome his successor, Gustav Jansson, who will play an important role in our continued development.

I would also like to warmly welcome all our shareholders to our Annual General Meeting, which will be held on Tuesday, 12 May at 10:00 a.m. at GT30, Grev Turegatan 30 in Stockholm.

Catella will be presenting the Interim Report and answering questions today at 10 a.m. CET. To participate in the conference, please see: https://financialhearings.com/event/54586

Balance Sheet Investments

Catella makes own sustainability-focused real estate investments together with partners and external investors. The goal of the investments is to grow AUM in Investment Management and create a strong base of recurring income. This is done through seed investments in new in-house funds, co-investments with external capital partners to secure long-term asset management mandates, and investments in development projects alongside majority-owning capital partners. In addition to growing managed capital and fixed fees, the return requirements are a minimum of $15\%$ IRR on own investments.

Comments on the Group's progress

Profit and comments on page 5-11 relate to operating profit attributable to Catella AB's shareholders, which is consistent with the internal reporting delivered to Group Management and the Board. The difference to the Group's formal Income Statement is that deductions have been made in the Income Statement for profit attributable to shareholders with non-controlling interests. A complete reconciliation can be found in Note 1.

Catella primarily invests through co-investments with partners to grow assets under management in the Investment Management business area. Subsidiaries that engage in project development are included in Investment Management from 2026 and comparative periods have been adjusted accordingly. Previously, these subsidiaries were included in the Balance Sheet Investments business area (previously Principal Investments).

Group net sales and profit/loss

First quarter 2026

Net sales for the Group amounted to SEK 296 M (325), a decrease of SEK 29 M compared to the previous year. Most of the change is attributable to rental income from Kaktus which was divested in May 2025, and to some extent also to exchange rate impacts due to a weaker euro relative to the Swedish krona in the first quarter of 2026. No projects were divested or revenue recognized in the current period. Other operating income in 2025 included a non-recurring income of SEK 8 M related to the revaluation of a financial liability related to the acquisition of shares in Catella Aquila.

The Group's operating expenses were lower than the previous year, with salary costs for the period decreasing by SEK 23 M to SEK 183 M (206), mainly driven by lower variable salaries. Costs for external consultants also decreased. Furthermore, the period's fair value changes in fund holdings amounted to SEK -16 M (-24), most of which is attributable to Pamica.

The Group's operating profit amounted to SEK -45 M (-44), which was on par with the previous year.

Comments on the progress of each business area can be found on pages 7-10.

The Group's net financial income/expense improved significantly compared to the previous year and amounted to SEK -2 M (-143), of which exchange rate differences amounted to SEK 12 M (-104). Funding to subsidiaries and associated companies is provided by Catella Holding AB in local currency. Outstanding loan receivables in foreign currency give rise to currency exposure, the effects of which are reported in the consolidated income statement. The lower exchange rate impact for the period is due to lower lending to subsidiaries, mainly due to the sale of Kaktus, but also to a more stable SEK exchange rate in relation to EUR, DKK and GBP. Interest expenses for the period decreased by SEK 14 M to SEK 23 M (37), where the positive change is mainly due to the sale of Kaktus but also to lower interest expenses for Catella AB's bond loan. Profit/loss for the period was SEK -50 M

(-181), corresponding to earnings per share of SEK -0.57 (-2.06) attributable to the Parent Company's shareholders.

Significant events in the quarter

The Catella Group appointed Gustav Jansson as new Chief Financial Officer, effective from 1 May 2026. Gustav Jansson succeeds Michel Fischier.

Catella's Nomination Committee proposes re-election of Tobias Alsborger, Pernilla Claesson, Erik Eikeland, Samir Kamal, Erik Ranje and Erik Rune as board members at the 2026 Annual General Meeting. Erik Rune is proposed to be re-elected as chair of the Board. Sofia Watt has declined re-election.

Significant events after the end of the quarter

In April Catella AB repurchased additional bonds, with a final redemption date in March 2029, for a total nominal value of SEK 140 million at a price of 103.75 percent of the bonds' nominal amount.

Net sales and profit/loss

First quarter 2026

Net sales was SEK 221 M (230), and gross profit amounted to SEK 188 M (210).

Net sales for the business area decreased by SEK 9 M, mainly due to lower fixed management fees, negatively impacted by FX effects in SEK/EUR. Total income decreased by SEK 22 M, primarily due to lower fixed revenue and the absence of a one-off revenue recognised in the prior year relating to a financial liability for contingent consideration from the acquisition of shares in the French asset management company Aquila, seen in other income.

Operating expenses for the segment decreased compared with the corresponding period last year, primarily as a result of lower IT, external services and personnel costs.

Operating profit for the quarter totalled SEK 19 M, primarily generated by our units within Property Funds.

Change in assets under management

AUM increased from SEK 148.1 Bn to SEK 159.8 Bn compared to the same period last year, a net change of SEK 11.7 Bn. The change was primarily driven by higher net inflows and a new reporting adjustment implemented from 2026 to include asset under development in AUM. Positive currency effects from movements in EUR/SEK exchange rate also contributed to the increase in AUM, partly offset by a slight negative market revaluation. The inflow of SEK 21.5 Bn was driven primarily by new mandates within Asset Management, particularly in Denmark, together with inflows in asset under development, mainly from the German unit Catella Project Management. This was supported by smaller contributions from Property Funds, with inflows to their property funds. The outflow of SEK 10.4 Bn was mainly attributable to Asset Management, driven by two larger mandates ending in Finland, as well as Property Funds, with outflows from its property funds.

AUM increased by SEK 4.5 Bn in the first quarter compared to the fourth quarter last year, from SEK 155.3 Bn. Inflows in the quarter of SEK 8.2 Bn were mainly driven by newly added asset under development reported from 2026, primarily from Catella Project Management. At the same time, an outflow of SEK 5.5 Bn was recorded, which was largely driven by Asset Management Finland with two larger mandates ended during the period. Exchange rate movements, primarily in EUR/SEK, increased AUM by SEK 1.8 Bn during the quarter. In Property Funds, AUM increased by SEK 1.4 Bn compared with the previous quarter, and by SEK 0.3 Bn year-on-year. In Asset Management, AUM decreased by SEK 4.9 Bn compared with the previous quarter and increased by SEK 3.5 Bn year-on-year. In Development, AUM increased by SEK 8.0 Bn compared both to the previous quarter and year-on-year, as this is the first quarter reflecting the newly introduced reporting of asset under development.

Corporate Finance

Net sales and profit/loss

First quarter 2026

The European transaction market saw slightly increased transaction volumes in the first quarter compared with the same period last year, but a decrease relative to the fourth quarter last year.

Property transactions where Catella acted as advisor totalled SEK 3.7 Bn (3.4) in the quarter. Of total transaction volume

in the quarter, Denmark accounted for SEK 1.4 Bn (1.0), France SEK 1.0 Bn (0.8), Sweden SEK 0.9 Bn (1.7), Finland SEK 0.2 Bn (0.0), Spain SEK 0.1 Bn (0.0). Corporate Finance's net sales were SEK 72 M (73) and revenue excluding assignment costs was SEK 53 M (60), a decrease of SEK 7 M, primarily driven by lower revenue generated in Denmark, Sweden and France.

Operating expenses for the period decreased compared to the corresponding period last year. The decrease was mainly attributable to lower personnel-related costs and external consultants. The decline in net revenue was offset by lower operating expenses, resulting in an operating profit of SEK -29 M for the period (-33)

Other financial information

The Group's financial position

First quarter 2026

The following information relates to the Group formal accounts.

In the first quarter, the Group's total assets decreased by SEK 181M and amounted to SEK 3,963M as of 31 March, 2026, where major changes related to working capital and cash and cash equivalents.

Group financing

Catella AB has issued senior unsecured bonds totalling SEK amount 1,300 M, of which SEK 600 M with maturity in March 2028 and SEK 700 M with maturity in March 2029. The loans accrue variable interest at 3-month Stibor plus 390 b.p. and 450 b.p. respectively. The effective interest rate, excluding loan arrangement fees, was 6.2 percent (6.8) in the first quarter 2026. Financing is conditional on a minimum Group equity and liquidity requirement from time to time of SEK 1,000 M and SEK 200 M respectively. These covenants were satisfied in the quarter and as of 31 March 2026. The bonds are listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, with SEK 600 M included in the sustainable bonds segment.

In September 2025, Catella AB repurchased bonds for a volume of SEK 100 M, after which the nominal amount of outstanding bonds totalled SEK 1,200 M. In April 2026, Catella AB repurchased an additional volume of SEK 140 M.

In addition to the bonds, the wholly owned subsidiary Catella Holding AB has a credit facility of SEK 200 M on favourable terms, which serves as the company's liquidity reserve. The entire credit facility was unutilized both during the quarter and as of March 31, 2026.

In addition, the Group's property development company holds loans from credit institutions relating to ongoing property projects. As of 31 March 2026, these loans amounted to SEK 130 M.

Group cash flow

First quarter 2026

The Group's cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK -80 M (-69) caused by the period's operating loss and settlement of operating receivables and liabilities. During the period, additional investments were made in the Vega and Metz-Eurolog projects and a new co-investment in the Danish housing project Gloss totalling SEK 21 M. The associated company Catella Project Capital repaid loans of SEK 22 M from Catella.

Cash flow in the period was SEK -128 M (88) and cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period was SEK 1,488 M (782), of which cash and cash equivalents relating to the Group's Swedish holding company amounted to SEK 959 M (220).

Group employees

At the end of the period, there were 471 (483) employees, expressed as full-time equivalents.

Parent Company

First quarter 2026

Catella AB's operating profit amounted to SEK -20.0 M (-11.5), where the change compared to the previous year is due to increased fixed salary costs, increased costs for IT operations and PR activities, and increased depreciation for common IT platforms and applications.

Net financial items for the period improved by SEK 3.6 M to SEK -19.3 M (-22.8) due to lower interest expenses on bond loans driven by lower market interest rates as the loans run at floating interest rate. Lower interest expenses are also due to lower borrowing volume due to the repurchase of bonds for a nominal amount of SEK 100 M in September 2025.

The number of employees at the end of the period was 18 (19).

Repurchase of own shares

Subject to the annual general meeting to be held on 12 May 2026 resolving to authorise the board of directors to resolve on repurchase of the company's own shares, the board of directors intends to launch a share repurchase program of own Class B shares of up to approximately SEK 100 M following the 2026 annual general meeting.

Risks and uncertainties

Macroeconomic conditions relating to inflation and interest rates affect transaction levels and AUM, impacting results of operations in Investment Management and Corporate Finance. Lower transaction volumes can also affect Balance Sheet Investments' ability to divest projects at acceptable prices. Our development projects have an indirect exposure to surrounding world risks such as the ongoing war in Ukraine and tension in the Middle East. These uncertainty factors may affect future returns.

Catella AB is indirectly exposed to the same risks as the Group through its holding of shares in subsidiaries.

For more information, see the section Risks and uncertainties in the Directors' Report of the Annual Report for 2025.

Seasonal variations

Seasonal variations are significant in the Corporate Finance business area. Transaction volumes and income have historically been highest in the fourth quarter.

This adjustment is reversed in the Group Elimination column so that the Group operating profit is consistent with the Group's formal Income Statement prepared in accordance with the Group's accounting principles.

The business areas covered in this report, Investment Management, Balance Sheet Investments and Corporate Finance, are consistent with internal reporting submitted to management and the Board of Directors and thus represent the Group's operating segments in accordance with IFRS 8, Operating Segments. The Parent Company and other holding companies are presented under the category "Other". Acquisition and financing costs and Catella's trademark are also recognized in this category. Group eliminations also include the elimination of intra-group transactions between the various business areas. Transactions between the business areas are limited and relate mainly to financial transactions and certain onward invoicing of expenses. Such transactions are conducted on an arm's length basis.

CATELLA

Note 3. Summary of Catella's loan portfolios

The loan portfolios comprise securitised European loans with primary exposure in housing. The performance of the loan portfolios is closely monitored and re-measurements are continuously performed. The loan portfolios are recognized under the category Other.

SEK M Loan portfolio Country Forecast undiscounted cash flow Share of undiscounted cash flow Forecast discounted cash flow Share of discounted cash flow Discount rate Duration, years
Pastor 2 Spain 55,0 71,5% 55,0 71,5% 0,0% 0,25
Lusitano 5 Portugal 21,9 28,5% 21,9 28,5% 0,0% 0,25
Total cash flow * 76,9 100,0% 76,9 100,0% 0,0% 0,3
Carrying amount in consolidated balance sheet ** 76,9
  • The discount rate recognised in the line "Total cash flow" is the weighted average interest of the total discounted cash flow.
    ** Catella's loan portfolio also includes the portfolios Pastor 3, 4 and 5 as well as Lusitano 4 whose book value have been attributed a value of SEK 0.

Pastor 2

In the sub-portfolio Pastor 2, the underlying loans are below ten percent of the issued amount and Catella expects the issuer to utilise its clean-up call. The administration of the portfolio is frequently unprofitable when it falls below ten percent of the issued amount, and this structure allows the issuer to avoid these additional costs. Catella considers the credit risk in the portfolio to be low, although the precise timing of the exercise of the option is difficult to forecast due to various unknown factors relating to the issuer.

Catella has assumed that the issuer will exercise its call option during the second quarter of 2026. The portfolio is valued at the full redeemable amount of EUR 5.0 M plus the subsequent quarter's cash flow, totalling EUR 5.03 M.

Lusitano 5

The time call affects sub-portfolio Lusitano 5 and constitutes an option held by the issuer that enables the sub-portfolio to be repurchased at a specific point in time, and subsequently from time to time. The option has been available since 2015. Catella evaluates that the time call will be exercised in the second quarter of 2026. The assumption is conservative due to this requiring no further cash flows other than the position's current capital amount of EUR 1.6 M plus the following quarter's cash flow when exercising the time call. The portfolio is hence valued at EUR 2.0 M.

For more information see Note 3 and 22 in the Annual Report 2025.

Note 5. The Group's assets and liabilities measured at fair value

Financial instruments valued at fair value are classified in one of three levels. Quoted prices on an active market on the reporting date are applied for level 1. Observable market data for the asset or liability other than quoted prices are used for level 2. Fair value is determined with the

aid of valuation techniques. For level 3, fair value is determined on the basis of valuation techniques based on non-observable market data. Specific valuation techniques used for level 3 are the measurement of discounted cash flows to determine the fair value of financial instruments. For

more information, see Note 22 in the Annual Report 2025.

The Group's assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of 31 March 2026 are stated in the following table.
