CEO's comments
The first quarter of the year was eventful, bringing continued growth with our entry into the Danish market by acquiring a portfolio of 34 properties with a total value of about EUR 280 million. Our capacity to conduct this transaction in such troubled times, with war in Europe and interest rates in turmoil, demonstrates the strength of our business concept and of Cibus as a brand. The banks, our shareholders and our bond investors have stood by us through good times and remain at our side in this more troubled period.
Taking the step into the Danish market has been a priority and gives us a fourth foundation stone to grow on. We are now clearly the market leader for grocery and daily-goods properties in the Nordic market, holding the most geographically diversified portfolio. The Danish market is similar to the other Nordic markets, with predominantly supermarket-sized stores. The tenant mix is also similar to the other Nordic countries with a small number of profitable grocery chains.
To partially finance this acquisition, Cibus issued an unsecured green Euro bond of EUR 50 million in March and issued new shares within the framework of the mandate granted by the Extraordinary General Meeting.
Cibus issued 4.4 million new shares, with tremendous interest being shown in participating in the issue. The Company raised approximately SEK 955 million through the issue and stands well equipped for continued growth.
With the Danish acquisition, we are well on our way to achieving our growth target with a property portfolio valued at EUR 2.5-3 billion by the end of 2023. The market remains strong and we have a good pipeline of prospects in all of the Nordic countries. We are also keeping our eyes open for new markets in Europe. Although we see the Nordic market as having a great deal left to offer and remains our first priority. We look forward with confidence to the rest of 2022, in which we intend to continue our value-generating and profitable growth.

*Includes all transactions where Cibus has taken possession of the property prior to or during March 2022, plus the acquisition of 34 properties in Denmark, of which Cibus took possession on 6 April.
**In accordance with IFRS16, site leasehold fees are included among financial expenses. Financial expenses also include prepaid arrangement fees not affecting future cash flow. ***A new share issue was implemented encompassing 2,000,000 shares in November 2021, a further 2,000,000 shares issued in December 2021, as well as 4,400,000 shares issued in March 2022. The number of shares subsequently totalled 48,400,000.
As of 31 March 202, the earnings capacity for the next 12 months improved by 17% compared with the 12-month perspective as of 31 March 2021. This was a result of the acquisitions carried out by the Company and rent increases due to indexation.
In the first quarter of 2022, the Group's rental income amounted to EUR 23,465 thousand (19,430), corresponding to an increase of 21% compared with the corresponding period last year. Service income totalled EUR 4,665 thousand (3,650) and consisted largely of reinvoiced expenses. The economic occupancy rate was 94.7% (94.7). Total rental value on an annual basis, including the Danish acquisition signed in March and taken possession of on 6 April, amounted to EUR 114,200 thousand (81,938).
Operating expenses for the reporting period amounted to EUR 6,361 thousand (4,869). Net operating income increased by 20% to EUR 21,769 thousand (18,211), resulting in a surplus ratio of 92.8% (93.7). As many leases are triple-net leases, whereby the tenants cover the majority of the expenses, net operating income is one of the most important comparative figures. Depending on the terms of the lease, expenses may be charged to tenants directly or via Cibus. This means that gross rents, expenses and service income may vary over time, even if net operating income remains relatively stable.
Administrative expenses amounted to EUR 2,142 thousand (1,697). Cibus has chosen to support UNHCR's work in Ukraine during the quarter with EUR 200 TEUR, which is included in the administrative expenses. Administrative expenses also include non-recurring costs of approximately EUR 100 TEUR for legal and other advisory services in connection with mainly restructuring within the Group.
Net financial items amounted to an expense of EUR 5,052 thousand (4,944) and consisted mainly of interest expenses for the period of EUR 5,100 thousand (4,654) but also an exchange rate difference of EUR 915 thousand (497). Net financial items also include limit fees, expenses for interest rate derivatives and site leasehold fees in accordance with IFRS 16. In addition to secured loans of EUR 731 million, three unsecured bonds have been issued in the amounts of SEK 600 million, EUR 135 million and EUR 50 million. At the end of the period, average interest rate in the loan portfolio, including unsecured bonds and including margins and expenses for interest rate hedging, was 2.4% (2.4).
For the reporting period, profit from property management increased by 26% to EUR 14,575 thousand (11,570), corresponding to EUR 0.33 per share (0.29).
Including acquisitions, changes in property values amounted to EUR 42,974 thousand (2,856) from the opening balance of EUR 1,499,626 thousand (1,272,514) to the closing balance of EUR 1,542,600 thousand (1,269,658). Of the value changes, EUR 26,532 thousand (193) was unrealised. The change in value is due to rent indexation having increased property values, while we are seeing slightly lower yield requirements in all three countries. An exchange rate effect impacts profit negatively by EUR 294 thousand (3,928). During the period, disbursements for acquisitions of properties were made in the amount of EUR 16,187 thousand (315). In addition, investments of EUR 549 thousand (564) have been made in the properties, of which about EUR 104 thousand (200) involved tenant adjustments that were implemented with a direct return in line with, or exceeding, the existing portfolio.
The nominal rate of corporation tax in Finland is 20%. Through fiscal depreciation on fittings and equipment, and on the buildings themselves, as well as through tax-loss carryforwards being exercised, a low effective tax expense was incurred for the reporting period. The nominal rate of corporation tax in Sweden is 20.6% and in Norway it is 22%.
The loss carryforwards are estimated at about EUR 19,225 thousand (23,849). Tax assets attributable to these loss carryforwards have been recognised in the consolidated balance sheet in an amount of EUR 4,078 thousand (4,570) and in the Parent Company's balance sheet in an amount of EUR 2,840 thousand (2,508). Cibus recognised total tax for the reporting period of negative EUR 7,201 thousand (847), of which current tax and deferred tax amounted to a negative EUR 286 thousand (0) and a negative EUR 6,915 thousand (847) respectively. The effective tax rate was 16.9% (7.0).
Earnings after tax amounted to EUR 35,523 thousand (11,171), corresponding to EUR 0.79 per share (0.28). Unrealised changes in property values totalling EUR 26,532 thousand (193) were included in profit.
■ Profit from property management
Consolidated cash flow from operating activities amounted to EUR 1,020 thousand (5,374). The operating cash flow is affected by a down payment of EUR 10 million paid for the acquisition in Denmark, which was assumed on 6 April. Cash flow from investing activities was negative in the amount of EUR 16,738 thousand (935) and mainly involved acquisitions of properties during the reporting period. Cash flow from financing activities amounted to an inflow of EUR 136,884 thousand (outflow 9,591). The financing business has increased in the quarter to be able to acquire the Danish portfolio on 6 April.
At the end of the period, cash and cash equivalents amounted to EUR 172,238 thousand (31,533), corresponding to EUR 3.56 per share (0.79). As of 31 March 2022, Cibus had net interest-bearing liabilities, after deduction of cash and cash equivalents, of EUR 802,114 thousand (782,402). Capitalised borrowing costs amounted to EUR 4,229 thousand (3,919).
Cibus Nordic Real Estate AB (publ) is the Parent Company of the Group and owns no properties directly. Its operations comprise owning shares, managing stock market-related issues and Groupwide business functions such as administration, transactions, management, legal issues, project development and finance. The Parent Company's earnings after tax amounted to EUR 2,379 thousand (-673).
Cibus reports its operations in the three national segments of Finland, Sweden and Norway. Of the total net operating income for the first quarter of 2022, 80% was attributable to Finland, 16% to Sweden and 4% to Norway. Of the total value of the properties, EUR 1,231,432 thousand was attributable to Finland, EUR 248,446 thousand to Sweden and EUR 62,722 to Norway. See page 28 of this report for more information.
Cibus is driven by the conviction that the decisions we make regarding our property portfolio can contribute to responsible social development. In our acquisitions and management of properties, we seek to foster sustainable development, both for our tenants, as well as for vibrant local communities, and for this to contribute to a favourable long-term profit trend for our shareholders. For Cibus, sustainability entails helping create accessible and climate-smart marketplaces for end-consumers. We achieve this alongside our anchor tenants, who are leading players in the food, grocery and daily-goods segment in the Nordic region. An example of this is that we grant our tenants access to our large and often flat roofs so that they can install solar panels. Today, 39 (28) of our properties have solar panels. The electricity they generate annually corresponds to the electricity consumption for about 2,199 apartments or for driving more than 22 million kilometres in an electric car. The annual CO2 reduction is about 576 tCO2 . Additional solar panels have already been planned and discussions are in progress with several tenants about installing more.
Being sustainable also entails Cibus providing support where it can. During the pandemic, we supported our smallest tenants with rent reductions of EUR 200 thousand when restrictions in Finland closed their operations. In the first quarter of 2022, we chose to support Ukraine with humanitarian aid through UNHCR with a donation of EUR 200 thousand.
Cibus Nordic Real Estate AB (publ) ("Cibus"), corporate registration number 559135-0599, is a public limited company registered in Sweden and domiciled in Stockholm. The Company's address is Kungsgatan 56, SE-111 22 Stockholm, Sweden. The operations of the Company and its subsidiaries ("the Group") encompass owning and managing grocery and daily-goods properties.
Cibus aims to double the value of its property portfolio to between EUR 2.5 billion and EUR 3.0 billion by the end of 2023. At the end of the first quarter of 2022, the value of the property portfolio, including the Danish acquisition, which was signed in March but taken possession of on 6 April, amounted to EUR 1.8 billion. By the end of 2023, Cibus also aim to achieved the criteria for an investment grade credit rating.
Cibus is exposed to a number of risks and uncertainties. The Company has procedures in place to minimise these risks. Cibus also has a strong financial position. Beyond the risks and uncertainties described below, refer to Cibus's 2021 Annual Report under "Risks and risk management" on pages 41-45.
Changes in property values
The property portfolio is measured at fair value. Fair value is based on market valuations performed by independent valuation institutes, which were Newsec and Cushman & Wakefield for this reporting period. Ultimately, however, Cibus's management always determines the value of the property portfolio.
The value of the properties was largely influenced by the cash flows generated in the properties in terms of rental income, operating and maintenance expenses, administration costs and investments in the properties. Therefore, a risk exists in terms of changes in property values due to changes in cash flows as well as changes in yield requirements and the condition of the properties. Risk to the Company includes the risk of vacancies in the portfolio as a consequence of existing leases being terminated and the financial position of the tenants.
In turn, the underlying factors influencing cash flow stem from current economic conditions as well as local external factors in terms of competition from other property owners and the geographic location that may affect the supply and demand equilibrium.
Cibus focuses on offering active, tenant-centric management with the aim of creating good, long-term relationships with tenants, which fosters conditions for sustaining a stable value trend for the property portfolio. The Company's property development expertise enables the proactive management of risks pertaining to the properties' values by securing the quality of the holdings.
Cibus's results are affected by the portfolio's vacancy rate, customer losses and possibly by the loss of rental income. The (economic) occupancy rate for the portfolio at the end of the period was 94.7% and the weighted average unexpired lease term (WAULT) was 5.1 years. Slightly more than 95% of the Company's income stems from properties rented to tenants in the grocery and daily-goods sector. The risk of vacancies, lost customers and a loss of rental income is impacted by tenants' inclination to continue renting the property and by tenants' financial positions as well as other external market factors.
To manage the risks, Cibus is creating a more diversified contract base but is also continuing to retain and improve existing relationships with the Group's largest tenants, which are leaders in the grocery and daily-goods sector in the Nordic region.
The Group runs a risk of increased expenses that are not compensated by regulation in the lease. This risk is limited, however, as more than 90% of all leases are triple-net agreements or net leases, meaning that, in addition to the rent, the tenant pays most of the expenses incurred in the property. Even unforeseen maintenance needs pose a risk to operations. Active and ongoing maintenance is conducted to retain and improve the properties' standard and to minimise the risk of needs for repair.
The Group is exposed to risks associated with financial activities in the form of currency and interest-rate risks. Currency risk arises when agreements are signed in currencies other than the euro. Interest-rate risk pertains to the impact on consolidated earnings and cash flow from changes in interest rates. To reduce the risk of interest-rate increases, the Group has interest-rate derivatives in the form of interest-rate caps.
Cibus Nordic Real Estate AB (publ) applies the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU. This Interim Report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. Disclosures according to IAS 34 16A are presented in the financial statements and related notes as well as in other parts of the report. The Parent Company applies RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities and the Annual Accounts Act.
The accounting policies applied in the interim report correspond to those applied in the preparation of the 2021 Annual Report. Other amended and new IFRS standards and interpretations from IFRS IC taking effect during the year or in future periods are not considered to have any significant impact on the consolidated accounts and financial statements. Assets and liabilities are recognised at cost, other than investment properties and interest-rate derivatives, which are measured at fair value. Refer to pages 70-73 of the most recent annual report for information about fair value measurement.
In preparing the interim report, management must make a number of assumptions and judgements that affect the Group's earnings and financial position. The same assessments and accounting and valuation policies have been applied as those used in the annual report – refer to the 2021 Annual Report for Cibus Nordic Real Estate AB (publ).
The Company prepares five reports each year: three interim reports, a year-end report and the Annual Report.
The Coronavirus has had a very limited negative impact on Cibus's operations. Grocery and daily-goods volumes are at normal levels and nothing indicates that our tenants will encounter difficulty paying their rent.
On 24 February 2022, Russia commenced a military invasion of Ukraine. In response, the EU and the US have imposed sanctions against Russia. It currently remains difficult to assess how the situation will affect macroeconomic developments and trends in the Nordic property markets.
At the Annual General Meeting on 11 April 2019, a resolution was taken to establish a warrant programme allotting 186,600 warrants to CEO Sverker Källgården. The subscription price is set at the average price for the Cibus share on 16-29 May 2019 and amounts to EUR 10.70 per share. Subscription may take place no earlier than 15 April 2022. The purpose of the warrants programme is to strengthen the connection between the work of the CEO and shareholder value.
The Annual General Meeting of 24 April 2020 resolved to initiate a warrants programme comprising 160,000 options for Cibus's management, excluding the Company's CEO, who already participates in a warrants programme established by the 2019 Annual General Meeting. The subscription price is set at the average price for the Cibus share on 18-25 May 2020 and amounts to EUR 12.20. Subscription may take place no earlier than 17 April 2023.
The Annual General Meeting of 15 April 2021 resolved to initiate a warrants programme comprising 120,000 options for Cibus's management, excluding the Company's CEO, who already participates in a warrants programme established by the 2019 Annual General Meeting. The subscription price is set at the average price for the Cibus share on 18-28 June 2021 and amounts to EUR 20.0. Subscription may take place no earlier than 15 April 2024.
At the Annual General Meeting on 20 April 2022, a resolution was taken to establish a warrant programme of 500,000 options for Cibus's CEO, company management and key employees. The subscription price shall be set at an amount in EUR corresponding to 110 percent of the average share price during the period 5 - 9 May 2022. Subscription may take place no earlier than 14 April 2025.
The purpose of the warrants programme, and the reasons for deviating from the preferential rights of existing shareholders, is to strengthen the connection between management and the shareholder value generated. In this way, the shared interests of Cibus's CEO, management, key employees and its shareholders are considered to increase.
The intention is for the warrant programme for the CEO to recur every three years and for the programme for company management and other employees to recur annually.

Cibus' share has been listed on Nasdaq Stockholm MidCap since 1 June 2021.
Primary reasons to invest in the Cibus share
Cibus strives to earn a high and stable yield for shareholders. From the outset, Cibus has never lowered its dividend in EUR per share from one quarter to the next. 1 3
Cibus's investment strategy of acquiring individual properties or property portfolios with a higher yield requirement than the existing portfolio. Combined with the planned rate of investment (doubling the value of the property portfolio to a value of between EUR 2.5 billion and EUR 3 billion at the end of 2023), this generates potential for favourable long-term growth in share value. 2 4 A segment with long-term resilience
Since October 2020, Cibus pays dividends monthly and aims to gradually increase them by 5% annually.
The grocery and daily-goods sector has experienced stable, non-cyclical growth over time. Historically, the grocery sector has grown by approximately 3% annually, even during periods of recession. It also shows strong resilience to the growing e-commerce trend that has made the stores into a distribution network for goods purchased online.

The closing price for Cibus's shares on 31 March 2022 was SEK 251.20, corresponding to a market value of approximately SEK 12.2 billion. The average turnover in the share in the first quarter of 2022 amounted to approximately SEK 48 million per day.
More than 95% of net operating income derives from grocery and daily-goods properties. The largest tenants are Kesko, Tokmanni, Coop Sverige, S Group and Lidl. Other tenants in the grocery and daily-goods trade include Coop Danmark, Salling Group, Dagrofa and ICA. The graph below shows how net operating income is distributed among properties where the different grocery and daily-goods chains are the anchor tenants.
The information below shows that the maturity structure of the leases is well distributed over the coming years. The typical lease contains a renewal option clause allowing the tenant to renew the lease, generally for three or five years, under the same terms as the current lease. This occurs in most cases. The table below presents the maturity of the leases if no such options are exercised by the tenant. Since the options generally are exercised, and approximately the same number of leases are extended each year, average lease terms have, to date, been relatively stable over time and are likely to remain so in the future. The average unexpired lease term in the portfolio, including the Danish acquisition, was 5.1 years.
■ Other agreements
Approximately 49% of the lease agreements that would expire in 2022 are valid until further notice, meaning that both the landlord and the tenant have the opportunity to terminate them. Such leases are typical for smaller tenants and this agreement structure provides flexibility for developing the property if, for example, the anchor tenant seeks to expand its premises. In the vast majority of cases, agreements valid until further notice have already continued for quite some time and it can be assumed that neither the landlord nor the tenant will terminate the agreement within the near future.
More than 90% of the leases are classified as net leases, meaning that the risk associated with operating costs is very low for the property owner.
As of 31 March 2022, Cibus's property portfolio, including the Danish acquisition, which was signed in March but with Cibus taking possession on 6 April, comprised 440 relatively modern store properties, located in various growth regions across Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark. Approximately 69% of the portfolio's net operating income on an annual basis stems from properties in Finland, 14% from properties in Denmark, 13% from properties in Sweden and 4% from properties in Norway.
More than 95% of total rental income derives from grocery and daily-goods properties. The largest grocery and daily-goods chains in the Nordic region perceive the properties as well suited to their operations. Anchor tenants account for 85% of rental income from grocery and daily-goods properties and have an average unexpired lease term of 5.6 years.
During the first quarter, six properties were acquired in Norway for EUR 16.1 million and 34 properties were acquired in Denmark for approximately EUR 280 million. Cibus took possession of the Danish acquisition on 6 April. For further information, access www. cibusnordic.com.

OPERATIONS
The portfolio is diversified with favourable market coverage throughout the Nordic region.
No single property in the portfolio accounts for a larger share than 2.0% of the portfolio's total net operating income, eliminating dependency on any individual property. Only one property accounts individually for more than 1.5% of the portfolio's total rental income.
Supermarkets account for the majority of the grocery and daily-goods sales in Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark and represent the dominant type of store property in the portfolio.
Annual net operating income is estimated at about EUR 102.2 million (current earnings capacity), based on the portfolio of which Cibus has taken possession.

The first properties in Norway were acquired on 15 October 2021. Prior to that, the property portfolio was located in Finland and in Sweden.
Since many of the leases are triple-net leases, whereby the tenants cover the majority of the expenses, net operating income is one of the most important comparative figures and the level at which the Board of Directors monitors the operations per segment.
Financial instruments valued at fair value in the Statement of financial position comprise interest rate derivatives. To determine fair value, market interest rates are applied for each maturity noted on the balance sheet date, as well as generally accepted calculation methods. Accordingly, as in the preceding year, fair value has been determined in accordance with level 2 in the value hierarchy. Interest rate swaps are valued by discounting future cash flows to their present value, while instruments with option components are valued at their current repurchase price, as obtained from the relevant counterparty. On the balance sheet date, fair value amounted to a positive EUR 519 thousand (negative 1,923).
The carrying amounts for financial assets and liabilities are considered to be reasonable approximations of fair value. According to the Company's assessment, there has been no change in market interest rates or credit margins since the interest-bearing loans were raised, that would have a significant impact on the fair value of the liabilities. The fair value of rental receivables, other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and other liabilities does not differ significantly from the carrying amount, as these have short maturities.

The Company presents certain financial performance measures in the interim reports that are not defined in accordance with IFRS. The Company is of the opinion that these performance measures provide valuable supplementary information to investors and the Company's management, since they enable an evaluation of the Company's performance. Since not all companies calculate financial performance measures in the same way, they are not always comparable with the performance measures used by other companies. Therefore, these performance measures are not to be considered a replacement for measures defined in accordance with IFRS. The following financial performance measures are not defined in accordance with IFRS: EPRA NAV per share; EPRA NTA per share; EPRA NDV per share; Senior debt LTV ratio; Net debt LTV ratio; Interest coverage ratio, Economic occupancy rate and The Proportion of grocery and daily-goods stores.
Definitions for these and other financial performance measures are presented under "DEFINITIONS" in the following section.
