Growth, development and a sustainable business

"We began 2022 with several significant transactions."

The surplus ratio of 65 per cent is the highest in Diös' history for a first quarter and we show good growth in property management income per share of 10 per cent. We deliver net leasing of SEK 22m in a continued strong market and an unrealised value development for our properties of SEK 533m.

The increased property management income of 11 per cent is due to increased revenues, completed projects, lower property costs and a larger property portfolio. During 2021, we completed three major projects that now fully contribute to our results. Our property costs are lower mainly due to lower winter-related costs and a lower heating requirement, partly due to energy efficiency improvements in the properties.

Strategic transactions in a red-hot market

We began 2022 with several significant transactions. In total, we communicated and completed acquisitions for approximately SEK 1,800m during the quarter. For example, we communicated acquisitions in Borlänge and Falun for SEK 564m. In order to create the conditions for further growth and acquisitions, we also divested retail properties with a value of SEK 737m with transfer in the second quarter.

Interest in our market is very large and the green transition not only covers the northernmost parts of Sweden. One exciting example is Northvolt's investment in converting the old paper mill in Borlänge

into a factory for circular battery production. The establishment represents around 1,000 new jobs in Borlänge, which will, of course, cause positive rings on the water for our business as well.

Value creation through sustainable projects

Our ongoing projects are progressing well and this summer we are completing the new Clarion Hotel in Umeå. We are also in the early phases for the move of the university in Borlänge into the city centre with an official date for the groundbreaking on 4 May and the start of construction of the brand new Västra Stranden quarter in Luleå. These projects provide both new and increased flows of people and contribute to security and accessibility in our cities.

Demand for modern offices and premises for urban service is high and we see both new players that are establishing themselves and existing ones that are growing. I am convinced that our 15-minute cities with more homes in central locations and all available services continue to be attractive and to be at the heart of the event.

Towards halved carbon dioxide emissions

Circularity and investments for the future are an important element for sustainable urban development and we are seeing a growing green commitment from our tenants through the signing of green leases and re-use. As part of our efforts to halve carbon dioxide emissions by 2030, we are now increasing the proportion of recycled materials and are launching "Reuse in collaboration with Diös" – an initiative

where materials we do not use ourselves are auctioned off at Tradera. We invest the proceeds from the sales in local projects with a focus on sustainability from a social perspective or in local climate and environmental initiatives.

Well-equipped in a changing world

The horrendous development of the war in Ukraine affects us all and will affect the world economy. Exactly how remains to be seen, but energy, material costs and interest rates are issues to which we live closely and act on. Our portfolio model to purchase energy for the next few years far in advance is proving to be very successful. We have a strong financial position, good banking relations and an interest coverage ratio of a multiple of 6.8. At the same time, we are working to both increase our liquidity facilities and to extend our loan maturities.

With respect to the world situation and the changing times we live in, I am confident that we are well equipped with a strong financial position, strong teams and the right offering in a growing market. The future is bright for our cities and for us as a company and I am convinced that 2022 will continue to be a successful year for our tenants, for us and for our shareholders.

This is Diös

As a market leader in our cities, we develop our properties, city blocks, neighbourhoods and suburban areas, creating growth for our tenants, our shareholders and ourselves. Through our knowledge and long-term sustainable investments in offices, urban service and housing, we offer our tenants the right premises in the right location, leading to a stronger offering, lower vacancies, higher rent levels and increased profitability.

BUSINESS CONCEPT

By building good relationships, using our pool of knowledge and taking responsibility, we are developing our cities and creating sustainable long-term value for our tenants, ourselves and our owners.

To create Sweden's most attractive places with the right content, where people want to be, live, work and meet.

Simple. We are clear, open and honest. Close. We are interested, listen and are available. Active. We turn words into deeds, take our responsibility and dare to make decisions.

Mission Core values Our promise to tenants

Everything is possible!

We want to create an inspiring, sustainable and accessible city for all.

Sustainability

Our sustainability work is part of our everyday life where our urban development strategy will lead to long-term sustainable cities. As a market leader in our ten cities, we have great opportunities to make a difference and create value for our tenants, shareholders and colleagues, as well as for the world around us.

We have set a climate target that has been reviewed and approved by the Science Based Target initiative, SBTi. This target means that we must cut our carbon dioxide emissions by at least 50 per cent in Scope 1 and 2 by 2030 in order to reach net zero by 2045, and take responsibility for our impact in Scope 3.

55% green assets by 2026 are one of our targets. The goal is to drive a development of our property portfolio and is measured as a percentage of the market value. A green asset for Diös is defined by our Green Financing Framework from 2021, which is available in full on our website.

Scope 1 and 2

Today, our emissions in Scope 1 and 2 consist mostly of emissions from purchased district heating. These emissions are thus highly dependent on the year's heating needs, where a cold year like 2021 caused our emissions to increase. To achieve a halving of Scope 1 and 2, we are actively working on energy efficiency improvement and optimisation, which is closely linked to our tenants' indoor climate and the property's operational economy. Power optimisation linked to changing energy tariffs is becoming an ever-larger issue and is also closely linked to the climate impact of energy production. We know today that several of our energy suppliers have targets similar to ours and their journey will also be a factor on our path to halved emissions.

Scope 3

According to our climate survey, emissions from our construction production and tenants' driving are two major items in our Scope 3 emissions. A major difference between these items is the control

Today, we can only present annual data from our travel and private cars, which is a very small part of our emissions. This is why we choose to present the measures we are planning for the future to increase the possibilities for measurement as well as measures to reduce our Scope 3 emissions.

Focus: Energy

Energy is an important issue for our business, our offering and our climate work. We buy origin-labelled electricity from renewable energy sources for our entire portfolio. We have an energy savings target of -3 per cent per year and a target of 55 per cent green assets by 2026 where energy performance is part of the criteria.

Actual energy use by quarter

Comment and analysis

For the first quarter of 2022, we achieved energy efficiency improvement of -6 per cent for normal-year-adjusted district heating in a comparable portfolio and -1 per cent for electricity use. This gives a total energy efficiency improvement for electricity and district heating of just over -4 per cent for the first quarter of the year compared with the previous year. This is a positive result as the investment rate in energy projects has been significantly lower during the pandemic than we are used to. We are increasing the pace of our energy investments and are seeing good conditions for more profitable energy projects in the future.

We do not include district cooling in the energy efficiency improvement target as district cooling accounts for a small part of our total energy use. In addition, the statistics for district cooling are of lower quality compared to electricity and district heating and adjustment for a normal year is not possible.

Comment and analysis

Energy costs and climate impact (Scope 2) are directly linked to actual energy use. The bars show actual energy use, not normalyear-adjusted district heating divided by total leasable area. We reported increased emissions in Scope 2 for full-year 2021, which was due to a significantly higher heating needs in the first quarter of 2021, which was an unusually cold period. Today, the cost of power withdrawals is a large part of the total energy cost, which further strengthens the link between cost and outdoor temperature.

Income statement

Earnings analysis Jan–Mar 2022

Note 1 Property management income

Property management income for the period, i.e., income excluding changes in value and tax, was SEK 271m (231). This is an increase of 17 per cent compared with the previous year. For comparable properties, our property management income increased by 10 per cent year on year.

Note 2 Revenue

Revenue for the reporting period was SEK 539m (483), representing an 90 per cent (90) economic occupancy rate. In a comparable portfolio, contracted rental income, excluding project properties, increased by 3.0 per cent compared with the previous year. Other property management income totalled SEK 19m (8) and consisted mainly of the costs of work on leased premises that are passed on to tenants. Of our commercial leases, 97 percent are index-linked, where 93 percent run with CPI adjustment and 4 percent with fixed enumeration.

Note 3 Property costs

Total property costs were SEK 203m (193). The increase in costs is related to a larger property portfolio. Of the total property costs, SEK 7m (4) refers to work on leased premises where the costs are passed on to tenants.

Note 4 Operating surplus

The operating surplus was SEK 336m (290), representing a surplus ratio of 65 per cent (61). For comparable properties, our operating surplus increased by 9 per cent compared with the previous year.

Note 5 Central administration

The central administration expense was SEK 18m (17). Central administration includes Group-wide costs for staff functions, such as IT, annual reports, auditors' fees, legal advice and so on.

Note 6 Net financial items

Net financial items for the period were SEK -47m (-42). The higher cost is related to a larger volume of interest-bearing liabilities. The interest costs for the period, including costs for interest rate derivatives and loan commitments, represent borrowings at an average annual interest rate of 1.1 per cent (1.2).

Note 7 Changes in value, properties

The average valuation yield at the end of the period was 5.47 per cent (5.65). The unrealised changes in value amounted to SEK 533m (418) and are mainly attributable to increased market rents and improved net operating income. For more information, see Note 11. The unrealised changes in value were equivalent to 1.8 per cent (1.6) of the properties' market value. At 31 March, the market value was SEK 29,847m (25,340).

During the period, nine properties (2) were acquired while eight properties (0) were divested.

Note 8 Changes in value, derivatives

The portfolio of interest rate derivatives has been measured at fair value. If the contracted interest rate deviates from the market rate, a theoretical fair value gain or loss arises on the interest rate derivatives. The change in value has not been realised and does not affect cash flow.

During the quarter, unrealised changes in value on derivatives totalled SEK 88m (9), which have been fully recognised in the income statement. The change in value is attributable to rising market interest rates.

Note 9 Profit before tax

The profit before tax was SEK 892m (658). The higher profit is mainly due to higher unrealised property values compared with the previous year.

Note 10 Tax

The nominal corporate tax rate in Sweden is 20.6 per cent. The remaining tax loss carry-forwards are estimated at SEK 0m (0). The Group also has untaxed reserves of SEK 539m (475). The fair value of the properties exceeds their tax base by SEK 11,037m (8,356), including SEK 4,557m (3,857) in deferred tax relating to asset acquisitions.

Diös has no ongoing tax disputes.

Our tenants

Tenants

Our tenant base is well diversified geographically and in terms of industry. There were 3,098 premises leases (2,878) and there were 2,008 residential leases (1,850). The ten largest tenants represent 16 per cent (17) of Diös' total contracted rental income. At 31 March, 30 per cent of contracted rental income came from tenants engaged in activities on behalf of the central government, county councils, local authorities or activities funded with municipal school vouchers. The share of commercial leases with green annexes is 8 per cent of the annual contract value.

Net leasing

Net leasing for the period was SEK 22m (-5). Net leasing during the period increased as a result of leasing to the Swedish Migration Agency in Södertull 13:8, Gävle and to the Central Railway Station in Järnvägsstationen 1, Sundsvall. Dalarna University's updated lease in Mimer 1, Borlänge contributes positively to net leasing.

Lease term

The average lease term for commercial premises at 31 March was 4.3 years (3.9).

Vacancies

Vacancies remained unchanged during the quarter, with economic vacancies standing at 9 per cent (9) and physical vacancies at 13 per cent (13) at 31 March. Adjusted for project-related and non-leasable vacancies1, the physical vacancy rate was 11 per cent. Economic vacancies are highest in office and retail premises while physical vacancies are highest in office and industrial premises.

1Project-related and non-leasable vacancies are sites that have been vacated for new builds and conversion, plus premises that have already been leased but are not yet occupied.

Comments on the balance sheet

Note 11 Investment properties and property value

The property portfolio is concentrated to central locations in ten priority cities in northern Sweden. The portfolio is well diversified, consisting mainly of residential, office and retail properties. At the end of the period, the portfolio comprised 91 per cent (92) commercial properties and 9 per cent (8) residential properties based on rental value by type of premises.

Property value

All properties are externally valued at each quarterly closing with the aim of determining the individual value of the properties in the event of a sale. Any portfolio effects are thus not taken into account. The external valuation is carried out from the first quarter of 2022 by CBRE. The valuations are based on a cash flow model with an individual assessment for each property of both future earning capacity and market return requirements. In assessing a property's future earning capacity, in addition to the inflation assumption of 2.0 per cent, the estimated market rents have been taken into account in contract maturity, occupancy rate and property costs. The market's return requirements are determined by an analysis of completed property transactions for properties with a similar standard and location. Projects and project properties have been valued according to the same principle but with deductions for remaining investment. Development rights have been valued on the basis of an estimated market value SEK/sq.m. gross floor space for established development rights. The average value of the development rights in the valuation is around SEK 1,400/sq.m. gross floor space. The valuations are in accordance with IFRS 13 level 3.

Note 12 Equity

At 31 March, equity was SEK 12,471m (9,669). The equity ratio was 40.8 per cent (37.4), which exceeds the target of 35 per cent.

Balance sheet

Comments on the balance sheet, continued

Capital structure

At 31 March 2022, 41 per cent (37) of Diös' total assets of SEK 30,555m was funded through equity, 49 per cent (52) through debt securities and 10 per cent (11) through other items.

Note 13 Interest-bearing liabilities

Interest-bearing liabilities in the Group were SEK 15,001m (13,463). Of total interest-bearing liabilities, SEK 9,801m (10,212) refers to bank financing, SEK 1,090m (1,029) to covered bonds, SEK 2,210m (2,225) to commercial paper and SEK 1,900m (0) of unsecured bonds. Amortised cost of the commercial paper was SEK 2,207m (2,222). The loan-to-value ratio in the Group was 49.3 per cent (53.7) at the end of the period. The secured loan-to-value ratio amounted to 35.6 percent (44.3). The average annual interest rate, including the cost of derivatives and loan commitments, was 1.2 per cent (1.1) and the interest coverage ratio for the year was 6.8 times (6.3).

Derivatives

Out of the Group's total interest-bearing liabilities, SEK 4,500m (5,750) has been hedged through derivatives. At 31 March 2022, the market value of the derivative portfolio was SEK 126m (11.6). The financial instruments limit the impact of changes in interest rates on our average borrowing cost. The value of derivatives is always zero at maturity. All financial instruments are measured at fair value and are classified in Level 2 in accordance with IFRS 13, which means that the measurement is based on observable market data (see Note 22 in the Annual Report 2021). Changes in value are recognised through profit or loss.

Financial key ratios

The interim reports use non-IFRS KPIs. We consider that these measures provide valuable additional information for investors, analysts and the company's management, as they enable the evaluation of relevant trends and the company's performance. As not all companies calculate financial measures in the same way, these are not always comparable with the measures used by other companies. These financial measures should therefore not be viewed as substitutes for IFRS-defined measures. The following table presents non-IFRS measures unless otherwise stated. Definitions of these measures are provided on page 31 and in the descriptions of the purpose of the various KPIs in the annual report for 2021. The financial targets for 2022 adopted by the Board are presented on page 27 of this report.

Figures refer to SEKm unless otherwise indicated.

Our assessment

Our business is determined to be exposed to the EU taxonomy, and the established environmental objective of limiting climate impact, Climate mitigation. We see that we can contribute to the climate transition in society through, among other things, energy efficiency in our properties and purchasing renewable energy, but also promoting a low climate footprint in connection with new construction and renovations. We have assessed that our primary economic activities constitute the acquisition and ownership of properties 7.7 Acquisition and ownership of buildings. For 2021, we choose to report the combined data for all activities. For the 2022 financial year, current assumptions and interpretations may be adjusted and reporting extended.

Diös' share price at the end of the period was SEK 102.4 (71.8), which represents a market capitalisation of SEK 14,519m (9,658), and the return for the past 12 months was 42.6 per cent (-16.3). If the dividend is included, the total return on the shares for the period was 48.0 per cent (-14.1). The return on the OMX Stockholm 30 Index was -4.5 per cent (23.8) and the return on the OMX Stockholm Real Estate PI index was 27.2 per cent (-6.7).

The single largest shareholder was AB Persson Invest, with 15.4 per cent (15.4) of the shares. The ten largest shareholders accounted for 53.3 per cent (53.1) of the total number of shares and voting rights.

Our goal is to generate a return on equity in excess of 12 per cent. Return for the period was SEK 22.6m (13.6). Equity at the end of the year was SEK 12,471m (9,669) and the long-term net asset value, EPRA NRV, was SEK 14,575m (11,317). On a per share basis, EPRA NRV was SEK 103.1 (84.4), which means that the share price at 31 March represented 99 per cent (85) of long-term net asset value. The net asset value per share for the period, expressed as EPRA NTA, was SEK 101.0 (82.1).

EARNINGS

Earnings per share for the period were SEK 5.00 (3.86) while long-term earnings per share, expressed as EPRA EPS, were SEK 1.68 (1.66).

Other information

Employees and organisation

The number of employees as at 31 March 2022 was 147 (151), of whom 61 were women (65). The majority of our employees, 95 people (100), work in our business units and the rest at our head office in Östersund. Our Pick-Pack-Post concept currently employs four people (4), all women (4).

Risks and uncertainties

Effects of Covid-19

The business will be affected by Covid-19 in both the short and the long term. Our assessment is that the risk of doubtful debts and bad debts has decreased in the short term compared with the previous year. Tenants in particularly vulnerable segments, such as hotels, cafés, restaurants and stores selling consumer durables, have experienced a decrease in turnover and fewer visitors. This affects the ability to make payments and the liquidity situation and thus increases the risk of suspended or deferred rent payments. This risk remains, but decreased as a result of repealed restrictions and the reduction of the spread of infection.

Effects of the military conflict in Ukraine

Russia's invasion of Ukraine in mid-February 2022 and the resulting humanitarian disaster is a major setback for the world. Sanctions against Russia and changed world trade affect global flows of goods and capital as well as energy prices. The most obvious effect in the immediate future is rising inflation, higher interest rates and increased risk premiums on the capital market, which can result in higher financing costs compared with the conditions at the beginning of the year.

In addition, there are clear downward risks for economic growth and that the supply of goods and products where the conflict countries had large production contributions is restricted. For our part, this can lead to higher costs for production materials, supply shortages and longer lead times in the project business, in particular.

General risks

Material risks and uncertainties affecting the business include market and business intelligence, the business model, the properties, cash flow, financing and sustainability.

Demand and prices in the Swedish property market are influenced by the level of economic activity globally and in Sweden as well as by interest rates.

Our properties are measured at fair value on an ongoing basis, and changes in value are recognised in the income statement. The effects of changes in value affect the income statement and balance sheet and thus also the related KPIs. Any significant negative impact is managed through a diversified portfolio of centrally located properties in growth cities.

Equity ratio, % 36.0 40.7 44.7

Cash flow consists of income and expenses and is primarily attributable to rent levels, property costs, occupancy rates and interest rates. A change in these items affects cash flow and thus also earnings. Any significant negative impact is managed through a diversified tenant structure, good cost control and active interest rate risk management.

1 Annualised.

Access to financing is the biggest financial risk and is essential to running a property business. The risk is limited through good relations with banks, good diversification, access to the capital market, and strong finances and KPIs.

A sustainable business model and sustainable behaviour are essential to creating long-term value. Through good internal control and procedures, we take responsibility for building a sustainable long-term business.

For more information on risks and risk management, see Diös' annual report for 2021, pages 58-60, 74 and 78.

Related-party transactions

There were no significant related party transactions in the period. Those related-party transactions which did occur are deemed to have been concluded on market terms.

Seasonal variations

Costs for operations and maintenance are subject to seasonal variations. Cold weather and snow affect the costs for heating, snow clearance and roof snow removal. The costs are normally higher in the first and fourth quarters.

Accounting policies

We comply with EU-adopted IFRS standards and the interpretations of these (IFRIC). This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The report for the parent company is prepared in accordance with RFR 2, Financial Reporting for Legal Entities, and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. All property-related transactions in the first quarter have been recognised based on calculations of the preliminary consideration. The final purchase consideration calculation will be obtained during the second quarter of 2022. The accounting policies applied in preparing the interim report are consistent with the accounting policies applied in preparing the consolidated financial statements and annual accounts for 20211 , not 1.

Other changed and new IFRS standards that enter into force during the year, or the coming periods are not assessed as having any significant impact on the consolidated reports and financial statements. 1 The Annual Report 2021 is available at www.dios.se.

Review of the report

The Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer declare that the interim report gives a true and fair view of the company's and Group's operations, financial position and income, and describes the principal risks and uncertainties faced by the company and the companies in the Group. This interim report has not been subject to review by the company's auditor.
