Economic recovery

The increased activity in the office rental market, which we could note during the second quarter, has continued during the third quarter. The lifting of restrictions and return to work places now taking place provide good hope for positive future development. Logistics properties continue to benefit from increased demand for logistics close to cities.

Extensive stimulation packages and mass vaccination combined with the gradual removal of restrictions around the world create good conditions for a continued economic recovery. Concern about new variants of the virus that causes covid-19 however creates some uncertainty. Short- and long-term interest rates continue to be at historically low levels, which overall means favourable conditions for the real estate market, although there is now mention of the possibility of accelerated inflation.

Positive net letting and earnings development

In all, net letting during the quarter amounted to SEK 7 million and to SEK 31 million during the first nine months of the year. During the quarter, lease contracts have been signed with, among others,

A GOOD QUARTER FOR A NEW, LARGER AND STRONGER COREM

Through the acquisition of Klövern, which has been consolidated in Corem from 15 June, a leading commercial Nordic real estate company has been created with its focus on growth regions. During the third quarter, we have, without slowing down in our everyday operations, worked in a focused way to integrate the two companies. The customer offering has been broadened to include both offices and logistics as well as retail and residential properties. Furthermore, we have many new skilled colleagues to get to know and many new well-run properties to manage and further develop. At the same time, I am pleased to note that we are reporting a good quarter with positive net letting, a strong profit from property management and an improvement in net asset value (NAV) to SEK 27.21 per share.

Avalanche Studios Group for approximately 1,400 sq.m. in New York, and Every Padel for around 3,800 sq.m. in Norrköping.

The profit is developing positively. During the first nine months of the year, profit from property management increased, excluding the part coming from Klövern of SEK 416 million and acquisition expenses of SEK 21 million, by 24 per cent.

Value creation from project development

Through the acquisition of Klövern, value creation from project development has increased in importance for Corem. A number of exciting projects are in progress, both in Sweden and abroad. In central Stockholm, for instance, an office property Orgelpipan 4 on Klarabergsgatan is being modernized and in Örebro a new hotel and office building is being built as part of the first stage of the project Örebro Entré. Two residential projects with a total of 233 tenant-owner apartments are in process and there is great potential in the portfolio for future residential projects. Our two largest new build projects now in process are two high-quality office buildings in attractive locations in Manhattan. Both projects will obtain LEED Gold environmental certification. This is only one of many examples of our major focus on sustainability producing results. Activity on the rental market is also increasing in New York. In addition to the letting to Avalanche, we have at the start of the fourth quarter had the pleasure of being able to communicate that we have signed a 15-year lease with A24 Films for approximately 3,800 sqm in the 1245 Broadway project. The tenant is planned to move in during the second half of 2022. A total of seven

floors and a third of the project is thus leased. It is gratifying that the rental market is recovering well in New York and we hope to be able to communicate further leases before the end of the year.

Focus on the future

Our foremost focus in the new merged company is to complete projects and reduce vacancies. And it is precisely letting work which is the single most important key for Corem's future profitability. We are also working continuously to secure long-term sustainable, costeffective financing. The aim is within two years to complement our BBB- rating from Scope with an additional investment grade rating from one of the three large rating institutions.

Long-term work with sustainability

Sustainability is now a naturally integrated part of all of our activities. It is important that we at all times live up to, and preferably exceed, the expectations of our tenants and the finance market as regards sustainability. The Board of Directors have set a number of ambitious long-term sustainability goals for the merged company, including that Corem should be climate neutral throughout the whole value chain by 2035.

I look forward to an eventful conclusion to 2021 where we in the merged company together develop and optimize our real estate portfolio with an unchanged focus on local management close to the customer.

Eva Landén, CEO

The acquisition is classified as a business combination in accordance with IFRS 3. This means that acquired assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are valued at fair value as per the acquisition date. All acquired items have a carrying amount corresponding to fair value, except for current asset properties and deferred tax liabilities, which have both been revalued in connection with the acquisition.

In connection with the acquisition, goodwill of SEK 2,934 million arose in the form of the difference between the acquisition value of the acquired shares and the net assets.

Goodwill consists of two parts. For the most part, it consists of the difference between nominal tax and the deferred tax that is calculated in connection with acquisitions of properties which must be reported in business acquisitions. For this accounting goodwill of SEK 1,950 million, there is a corresponding amount in the item deferred tax. In addition, goodwill consists of synergy effects. This part consists of SEK 984 million.

Transaction costs attributable to the acquisition amounted to SEK 21 million and are reported in the item in the Statement of comprehensive income under Acquisition costs.

Transaction costs related to the issue of new treasury shares amounted to SEK 15 million and have been reported against equity, after consideration of tax.

From the acquisition date until 30 September 2021, Klövern contributed SEK 957 million to the Group's rental income and SEK 539 million to the Group's profit after tax.

Holdings without controlling influence have been valued at fair value at the time of acquisition, corresponding to the share price according to the same principles as acquired shares.

NEWLY ISSUED SHARES RELATED TO PUBLIC BID FOR KLÖVERN

On 29 March 2021, Corem submitted a public takeover bid to the shareholders of Klövern AB (publ) to acquire all outstanding shares in Klövern, in exchange for newly issued shares in Corem.

During the acceptance periods which ran during June 2021, a total of 68,296,112 ordinary shares of Class A, 738,725,754 ordinary shares of Class B and 14,695,199 preference shares in Klövern were submitted in the Offer.

During the acceptance period which ended on 18 August 2021, a total of 2,377,877 ordinary shares of Class A, 33,308,552 ordinary shares of Class B and 857,426 preference shares in Klövern were submitted in the Offer.

As part of the Offer, preference shareholders in Klövern were given the opportunity to either receive newly issued ordinary shares of series D or preference shares in Corem as consideration. Preference shareholders representing 5,016,695 preference shares in Klövern have chosen to receive ordinary shares of series D in Corem and shareholders representing 10,535,930 preference shares in Klövern have chosen to receive preference shares in Corem.

EXCHANGE OFFER TO PREFERENCE SHAREHOLDERS

On 30 March 2021, a voluntary exchange offer was made to preference shareholders to convert preference shares into newly issued Series D ordinary shares. The exchange offer covered all preference shares in Corem and meant that Corem offered 1.12 ordinary shares of series D in Corem for each preference share which was submitted in the exchange offer. The reason why only preference shares were offered redemption was to enable increased financial flexibility for Corem. An increased number of new ordinary shares of series D creates better long-term conditions for reaching an investment grade rating, which is expected to reduce the company's financial risk and financing costs.

A total of 1,720,635 preference shares had been submitted in the Exchange Offer as of 11 June 2021, which corresponds to 47.8 percent of the total number of preference shares. Based on the outcome, Corem has issued a total of 1,927,111 Series D ordinary shares to the shareholders who accepted the Exchange Offer.

During the period, Corem has not repurchased any shares. As of 30 september 2021 Corem held a total of 2,913,825 ordinary shares class A and 29,630,550 ordinary shares of class B. The shares have been repurchased at an average price of SEK 18.35 per share.

The properties are valued in compliance with Level 3 in the IFRS value hierarchy.

The fair value of financial instruments agrees essentially with the carrying amounts. The same applies to the Parent Company, with the exception of the holdings in Castellum and where fair values are those reported to the Group. No changes of the categorization of financial instruments have taken place during the period. Financial assets are valued at fair value and Short-term investments are valued in accordance with Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Derivatives are valued in accordance with Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. No new or changed standards of interpretations from IASB have had any impact on the interim report and the accounting policies applied are those described in Note 1 of Corem's Annual Report for 2020, with the following additions regarding Goodwill: "Goodwill arising through business combinations constitute the difference between the acquisition value and the Group's share of the fair value of acquired subsidiaries' identifiable net assets as per the acquisition date. At the time of acquisition, goodwill is reported at acquisition value. Thereafter, it is reported at acquisition value after deduction of any write-downs. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if there is an indication that the carrying amount may not be recoverable."

The report may contain rounding differences.
