INTERIM REPORT JANUARY – SEPTEMBER 2007
Malmö Urnes 1, Svågertorp (The property was acquired in June 2007.)
.
Catena shall own, effectively manage and actively develop commercial real estate in prime locations that offer the potential to generate steadily growing cash flow and good growth. Catena's overriding objective is to provide shareholders with a favorable long-term total return by being one of the leading players involved in commercial real estate in a number of strategic locations.
INTERIM REPORT JANUARY - SEPTEMBER 2007
- Rental revenue during the period totaled SEK 133.7 M (131.8 for the corresponding period in 2006).
- Income from property management for the period amounted to SEK 54.8 M (70.8), or SEK 4.74 per share (6.12).
- Profit before tax for the period was SEK 226.6 M (195.1).
- Profit after tax for the period amounted to SEK 178.2 M (143.4) or SEK 15.41 per share (12.40).
- Sales of properties resulted in a realized change in value of SEK 37.7 M (-).
- Investments in the existing portfolio of about SEK 115 M were decided during the period.
- Acquisitions of properties totaling SEK 24 M were made.
- An Extraordinary General Meeting of the shareholders will be held on October 25, 2007 to elect a partially new Board of Directors.
Peter Hallgren, President and CEO:
"Catena's performance continues to meet our expectations. Profit for the period after tax rose by 24% to SEK 178 M. The value of the existing real estate portfolio continues to grow and the change in the first nine months of the year was SEK 132 M, of which SEK 38 M pertains to the third quarter. This increase in value is an effect of reduced required returns for some properties, continued investment and new leases, which have a value-increasing effect.
"The lower income from property management is primarily attributable to exchange-rate fluctuations, mainly due to the strengthening of the Norwegian krona. However, currency changes had a positive effect on the translation reserve in shareholders' equity.
"We continue our work on developing and improving our existing properties. Our strategy also includes acquiring property and land with development potential. A weaker market situation and financial concern can increase the opportunities for such acquisitions. Catena is well prepared for a potential market change."
FOCUS ON COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE
Catena is a real estate company that focuses on properties in external retailing locations. The real estate portfolio is located in four growth regions in the Nordic countries: Stockholm and the Mälardalen, Västra Götaland, Öresund and Oslo.
SUMMARY OF STRATEGY AND DIRECTION
Catena shall:
- Actively manage the real estate portfolio, focusing on stimulating long-term customer relationships by offering attractive premises in close cooperation with our tenants.
- Acquire commercial properties with good potential to achieve long-term growth and stable revenue.
- Actively improve and develop the real estate portfolio by identifying and implementing value-adding measures that increase the properties' attractiveness and yield, with due consideration of risk.
- Divest properties for which the potential to create additional value growth is deemed limited.
FINANCIAL TARGETS
Over a business cycle, Catena aims to achieve the following targets:
- Return on shareholders' equity that exceeds the risk-free interest by not less than 5 percentage points1 .
- Interest coverage ratio not less than 1.75.
- Equity/assets ratio not lower than 25% and not higher than 35%.
DIVIDEND POLICY
Long-term, Catena's dividend shall amount to 75% of the income from property management2 after tax3 .
REVENUES, EXPENSES AND EARNINGS
GROUP
Rental revenue
Rental revenues have increased from SEK 131.8 M to SEK 133.7 M. The increase is primarily attributable to upward indexation, new rental contracts and increased rental revenues from remodeling for tenants. Of the rental revenues, 94% are revenues from the Bilia Group.
The revenue-based occupancy rate totaled 98.4% (98.8) on October 1, 2007. The total rental value of vacant premises amounted to SEK 2.8 M (2.1). The average lease term was 10.5 years.
Property expenses
Property expenses totaled SEK 17.3 M (19.1). Of total property expenses, operating expenses declined by SEK 0.2 M and repair and maintenance by SEK 1.0 M, compared with the preceding year. The deviation in operating expenses derives mainly from the Norwegian properties. In Sweden, repair and maintenance expenses were less extensive during the current year compared with the preceding year. Property administration declined by SEK 1.5 M, primarily due to the purchase of fewer services.
Operating surplus
The operating surplus for the period totaled SEK 116.4 M (112.7).
Other operating revenues
SEK 1.5 M (1.0) of other operating revenues, which totaled SEK 4.8 M (3.7), was attributable to consulting fees, SEK 1.8 M (-) to invoicing transferred to tenants and SEK 1.5 M (-) to non-recurring compensation for infringement of rights of use. The figure for the preceding year also included revenues of SEK 2.7 M related to leased properties.
Other operating expenses
Other operating expenses consisted of purchases for which invoicing was passed on to tenants of SEK 1.8 M (-) and consulting fees of SEK 0.3 M (-). The preceding year's operating expenses pertained mainly to expenses for leased premises.
1 Risk-free interest is defined as interest on a five-year Swedish Government bond. 2 Profit after financial items excluding realized and unrealized changes in value.
3 Profit after financial items charged with 28% standard tax.
Central administration
Expenses relating to central administration totaled SEK 13.1 M (19.2). The item covers expenses for Group management and other corporate functions. The amount for the preceding year includes costs incurred in connection with the stock-exchange listing of SEK 10.6 M. The increased expenses for other central administration are primarily attributable to the fact that Catena was not listed for the entire corresponding period in the preceding year. This meant that expenses for an annual report, an annual general meeting, payroll expenses for current staffing, etc., were not included.
Net financial items
Net financial items for the period amounted to an expense of SEK 51.2 M (23.8). Net financial items for the period included unrealized exchange losses of SEK 10.8 M (gains: 6.1).
These exchange losses are attributable to the strengthening of the NOK to the SEK, which affected the Group's financial net negatively. The higher interest expenses are due to a rise in market interest rates compared with the corresponding period in 2006.
Financial items
| 2007 | 2006 | |
|---|---|---|
| SEK M | Jan-Sept | Jan-Sept |
| Interest income | 1.9 | 0.5 |
| Interest expenses | -39.0 | -32.7 |
| Net exchange rate fluctuations, unrealized | -10.8 | 6.1 |
| Net exchange rate fluctuations, realized | -3.3 | 2.3 |
| Net financial items | -51.2 | -23.8 |
Income from property management
Income from property management totaled SEK 54.8 M (70.8).
Changes in value
Properties
All of the Group's properties, except those in Norway, have been valued internally applying external return requirements. The properties in Norway have been appraised by an external party. For more information about the appraisal method, refer to Catena's 2006 Annual Report.
Change in book value of the properties
| 2007 | 2006 | |
|---|---|---|
| SEK M | Jan.-Sep. | Jan.-Sep. |
| Book value at beginning of the period | 2,158 | 2,016 |
| Value changes | 132 | 120 |
| Investments in existing portfolio | 61 | 31 |
| Investments in new properties | 24 | - |
| Currency effect | 28 | -11 |
| Book value at the end of the period | 2,403 | 2,156 |
Financial derivatives
To achieve the interest rate structure stipulated in the Group's finance policy, Catena utilizes interest swaps. The value of these interest swaps increases or decreases to the extent that the agreed interest rate deviates from the corresponding market rate. The unrealized value of the aforementioned interest swaps was SEK 15.1 M (2.9) on the balance-sheet date, of which the change in value for the period amounts to SEK 6.4 M (2.9).
Through its holdings of properties in Norway and Denmark, the Group is exposed to the exchange rates for these countries' currencies. To reduce this exposure, the Group raises loans in the currencies of these two countries. In those cases where Catena has yet to utilize the opportunity to issue binding credits, the Group has instead utilized currency forward contracts to reduce this exposure. The unrealized change in value of currency forward contracts amounted to a negative SEK 4.5 M (positive: 1.8) on the balance-sheet date. The difference is attributable to the strengthening of the NOK to the SEK during the period.
As a whole, the strong NOK and DKK have had a positive effect, among other factors through the currency translation difference in shareholders' equity developing positively by SEK 21.0 M during the period compared with year-end 2006. See the table below for the net effect of currency fluctuations on the income statement and shareholders' equity.

| 2007 | 2006 | |

| In equity | ||
| Net change in translation reserve | 21.0 | -10.7 |
| Net influence | 2.3 | -0.5 |
Taxes
Current tax paid for the period amounted to SEK 12.9 M (13.5) and deferred tax to SEK 35.5 M (38.2). The change in deferred tax is largely attributable to unrealized changes in value. Catena has no unutilized loss carryforwards.
Profit after tax for the period
Profit after tax for the period totaled SEK 178.2 M (143.4).
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTY FACTORS
General
Catena is exposed to a number of risks that may affect the company's business and earnings, as well as the value of property. Through its holdings of properties in Denmark and Norway, the income statement and balance sheet can also be affected by fluctuations in the currencies of these countries against the Swedish krona. Included among the other risks are risks in leases, changes in operation and maintenance expenses and interest and financing risks.
Value change
Valuation of the properties managed by the Group was carried out internally, with the help of externally obtained return requirements, except for properties in Norway, where external appraisals were done. The same principles were used as for the valuation performed at the beginning of 2007. The valuation of properties is associated with forwardlooking assumptions, entailing a margin of error of +/- 5-10% at the property level.
The value of the Group's financial instruments, interest swaps and futures contracts is obtained externally. The value of these instruments varies with contracted interest rates, market interest rates and currency-exchange rates.
Beyond that stated in this interim report, no significant changes have occurred compared with that stated in the annual report.
For further information about risk and uncertainty factors, please see Catena's 2006 Annual Report, pages 16-17 and pages 60-61.
The Parent Company
The Parent Company is exposed to the aforementioned risks through liabilities to foreign subsidiaries, loans and financial derivatives.
PARENT COMPANY
The operations of the Parent Company, Catena AB, primarily consist of Group-wide functions and management of the Group's subsidiaries.
During the period, central administration expenses decreased from SEK 23,7 M to SEK 16,8 M. The change is largely attributable to expenses associated with the exchange listing charged to the corresponding period of 2006.
The Parent Company's operating profit is 100% (100) due to billing for internally provided services.
PROPERTIES
The Group's real estate portfolio consists of commercial premises located in Stockholm and the Mälardalen, Västra Götaland, Öresund and Oslo regions. On September 30, 2007, the real estate portfolio consisted of 30 properties, of which six are held on leasehold, with a rentable area of 225,907 square meters. At the beginning of October 2007, the land of the Lilleström property was acquired through the redemption of the leasehold agreement.
The properties are booked at a carrying amount of SEK 2,403 M, which corresponds to the properties' estimated market value. On October 1, 2007, the rental value totaled SEK 180.4 M and the contractual rental revenues totaled SEK 177.6 M on an annual basis. The revenue-related occupancy rate was 98.4%.
Property investments/acquisitions
Investments in existing properties amounted to SEK 61 M. This amount pertains primarily to renovation and expansion projects.
During the period, one property was acquired. The acquisition took place in the month of June.
