NET LETTINGS

Target: SEK 80m per year

SURPLUS RATIO

Target: 75%

During the third quarter, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde continued to fight for our attention. The focus in the media and in the financial market was on risk and doomsday prophecies. Meanwhile, we had positive net lettings, stable or increasing rental levels and a continued strong transaction market, even though it weakened during the third quarter. On the other hand, the rising interest rates and inflation continued to soar, equity prices kept falling, the war in Ukraine continued and the geopolitical uncertainty became even greater.

Of course, we must be humble about the new tough challenges we will face going forward, but this can also create opportunities.

On the positive side, we had net lettings of SEK 25m during the quarter and SEK 69m in total for the period January-September. The third quarter is usually always the weakest quarter so I am convinced that we will meet our target of SEK 80m in net lettings for 2022. The trend of customers demanding quality is continuing. This applies to both the location and design of offices. However, we saw a slight decline in the number of new searches and inquiries after the summer.

The occupancy rate in the investment property portfolio increased slightly to 90 per cent, which is gratifying even though it is too early to call it a trend reversal. Vacancy rates are still too high and we are working actively to improve this. It will take some time, but it is fully plausible to get back to an occupancy rate of 95 percent. To drive this work, we further strengthened our letting organisation after the summer. Income will also increase by indexation, which we estimate to amount to approximately SEK 250m and in addition by almost SEK 400m in additional rental value in the project portfolio.

Activity in the capital market remains low, even though we saw some improvement in the commercial paper market at the end of the period.

Pricing in the bond market is still not competitive compared to bank financing. We have amortised maturities of SEK 2.2bn during the year. After mid-year, we increased our bank facilities by just over SEK

2.6bn in total on good terms. In July, a new 10-year loan of SEK 1.2bn was disbursed. After the summer, we increased an existing bank facility with a remaining term of two years by a further SEK 1bn. We also signed a 10-year loan agreement of SEK 432m with the Nordic Investment Bank. This does not mean that we will abandon the bond market but as the situation looks today, we will reduce our exposure or issue shorter maturities going forward. We have realised that it is important to work with several different funding sources and this will also continue to be our goal.

We have no bank maturities during the rest of the year. Upcoming maturities in late 2023 will be refinanced during the fourth quarter this year. We have bond maturities of SEK 2.4bn during 2023. If we do not see any improvement in the bond market, we will aim to replace these with bank financing even though it is a bit too early to say so today. We are a long-term and stable customer to the banks and I am convinced that the banks will be available for Fabege. In total, we now have SEK 4.3bn in undrawn

CHANGE IN VALUE OF PROJECTS

INVESTMENT VOLUME

Target: SEK 2,500m per year over a business cycle

facilities including the commercial paper backup.

Our interest expense increased, and the average interest rate at the end of the quarter amounted to 2.13 per cent after the Riksbank's hikes. The fact that interest rates have risen from the extreme unnaturally low levels we have had in recent years, should not really come as a surprise. Almost half of our interest rates are hedged via swap contracts with maturities of more than three years.

Before the end of the quarter, around 35 per cent of the portfolio was independently valued. In addition to this, a large proportion was valued internally. We saw a yield increase of 8 points in our portfolio due to the high interest rate environment. In Hammarby Sjöstad, we saw slightly falling yields since transactions in the area were completed during the quarter at lower levels than earlier.

The portfolio showed total unrealised value growth of SEK 253m. The increased yield requirements were positively offset by indexation, which was the main explanation for the increase in value. Our independent valuers calculated 7 per cent in indexation for 2022. Almost 100 per cent of our portfolio is linked to indexes.

Yields will probably follow the interest rate up during the remainder of the year and in 2023 but I do not want to speculate yet about how much it will impact us. Folksam's acquisition in the inner city of the properties Kortbyrån 19 and 20, from DNB in early October at a yield of around 3.1 per cent shows that long-term investors are still willing to pay handsomely for quality in Stockholm.

On the project side, inflation has made it difficult to budget for future project costs. We are putting a lot of effort into tenders and planning, among other things regarding the choice of material and the timing of payments with the aim of keeping down costs. We collaborate closely with our contractors. We see a general cost increase in projects of 10 - 15 per cent. In our project with Alfa Laval in Flemingsberg, the cost has

increased by about 20 per cent. The project's special character, including high demand for load-bearing capacity in the innovation center, means a lot of steel in production. Steel is one of the input goods that has seen the biggest cost increase since the war in Ukraine.

On the residential side, we are following developments closely and we have the luxury of being able to keep our development rights in the portfolio and start projects when we believe that the market and the cost structure have stabilised. As the situation looks today, we will reduce the rate of new housing projects a few quarters ahead.

Last week, we received an acknowledgement of our excellent sustainability work when we obtained 94 points out of 100 in this year's GRESB ranking. We are ranked highest in the Offices category among listed property companies in northern Europe. The average score in the ranking was 73 points. The fact we are ranked highest in our category is not what is most important, but that we as an industry are working together to find solutions to our common challenges.

Surely everyone agrees, that our industry, after many years of constant sunny days, is facing harsher times. The road ahead will be bumpier. I cannot answer how everything will go but we will continue to work diligently and take care of our customers, properties and districts just like before. It is also reassuring to have a stable and debt-free principal owner when the cold wind blows. However, we are well-equipped, we have a fundamentally strong balance sheet, we know our customers well, we have an experienced, professional and customeroriented organisation and we will take on the challenges and opportunities of the future with humility.

Earnings Jan–Sep 20221

Profit after tax for the period amounted to SEK 5,105m (3,142), corresponding to earnings per share of SEK 16.05 (9.72). Profit before tax for the period amounted to SEK 6,458m (3,989). Higher profit from property management and more significant changes in the value of both properties and fixed-income derivatives meant that profit before tax increased compared with the year-earlier period.

THIRD QUARTER IN BRIEF

  • Continued high activity on the rental market, in terms of viewings, negotiations and completions.
  • New lettings totalled SEK 39m (88).
  • Net lettings amounted to SEK 25m (74).
  • Rental income totalled SEK 771m (721).
  • The surplus ratio stood at 76 per cent (79).
  • SHH's net sales amounted to SEK 104m and gross earnings totalled SEK 6m.
  • Profit from property management totalled SEK 408m (404).
  • The property portfolio posted unrealised growth in value of SEK 253m (881), of which projects accounted for SEK –2m (480).
  • Unrealised changes in value in the derivatives portfolio totalled SEK 277m (124).
  • Profit after tax for the quarter amounted to SEK 728m (1,096).

RENTAL INCOME AND NET OPERATING INCOME

Rental income increased to SEK 2,251m (2,143) and net operating income amounted to SEK 1,667m

(1,616). The increase in income was mainly due to acquisitions, occupancies of project properties and index-linked revenue, and also includes non-recurring income of SEK 6m. On a like-for-like basis, income rose by approximately 5 per cent (1). The increase mainly related to rental income from the completed project properties Nationalarenan 3 and Poolen 1. Income from new lettings, renegotiations and indexlinked revenue fell following Skatteverket's departure from Nöten 4. The increase in property expenses was mainly attributable to higher electricity costs and property taxes. Net operating income rose by approximately 3 per cent (1) on a like-forlike basis. The surplus ratio stood at 74 per cent (75).

PROFIT FROM RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT

SHH Bostad has been included in the Fabege Group's earnings since the fourth quarter of 2021. Revenue from residential development totalled SEK 132m during the period. Residential development costs amounted to SEK –122m, of which administrative costs accounted for SEK – 21m. Gross earnings therefore totalled SEK 10m. Income recognition takes place on project completion. A project in Riksten was completed during the period. Income from co-owned projects is recognised under the item 'Share in profit/loss of associated companies.

CENTRAL ADMINISTRATION

Central administration costs stood at SEK – 77m (–85). The figure for 2021 included non-recurring costs relating to Fabege's new headquarters.

NET FINANCIAL ITEMS

Net interest items amounted to SEK 423m (–365). The increase in interest expenses

was mainly due to a higher volume of loans and higher average interest rates. During the third quarter, the average interest rate increased slightly as the Riksbank's key interest rate hike impacted the market rate (STIBOR). The average rate at 30 September was 2.13 per cent (1.79). Ground rent amounted to SEK –31m (–26).

SHARE IN PROFIT/LOSS OF ASSOCIATED COMPANIES

The share in the profit/loss of associated companies totalled

SEK –8m (–20), of which SEK –38m related to contributions to Arenabolaget and SEK 30m related to final settlement regarding the co-owned residential development project in Lagern 3, Råsunda.

CHANGES IN THE VALUE OF PROPERTIES

The property portfolio is valued using a well-established process. The entire property portfolio is independently valued at least once a year. Roughly 35 per cent of the portfolio was independently valued in the third quarter, while the remaining properties were internally valued based on the most recent independent valuations. The total market value at the end of the period was SEK 89.4bn (83.3). Unrealised changes in value totalled SEK 3,432m (2,420). The average yield requirement declined by 0.07 per cent in the first half of the year but rose again in the third quarter by 0.08 per cent to 3.77 per cent (3.76 at year-end). The change in the first half of the year was mainly due to a backlog based on transactions at the end of last year and the beginning of the current year. In the third quarter, yield requirements increased as a result of higher interest rates. In valuations this was offset by higher inflation assumptions.

The realised changes in value of SEK 74m (56) related to gains from the sale of Lagern 3 in Råsunda to the joint venture that has been developing residential units on the property.

Shareholders' equity amounted to SEK 48,232m (45,174) at the end of the period and the equity/assets ratio was 51 per cent (51).

The dividend decided on by the Annual General Meeting reduced the equity. Equity per share attributable to Parent Company shareholders totalled SEK 153 (141). EPRA NRV stood at SEK 185 per share (171).

GOODWILL

Recognised goodwill of SEK 205m is entirely attributable to the acquisition of SHH Bostad AB.

PROPERTIES

The property value recognised relates to Fabege's investment property portfolio, including project and land properties. At 30 September 2022, the total property value amounted to SEK 89.4bn (83.3).

DEVELOPMENT PROPERTIES

This refers to ongoing in-house projects and development properties for future construction within SHH. The value at the end of the quarter totalled SEK 957m (821), SEK 571m of which relates to ongoing construction and SEK 386m to development properties for future development.

CASH FLOW

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital amounted to SEK 1,129m (1,141). Changes in working capital had an impact on cash flow of SEK 382m (46). Investing activities had an impact of SEK –2,579m (–1,748) on cash flow, while cash flow from financing activities totalled SEK 1,051m (626). In investing activities, cash flow is driven by property transactions and projects. Cash and cash equivalents declined by a total of SEK 17m (65) during the period.

10-YEAR AGREEMENT WITH NIB

Nordiska Investeringsbanken (NIB) and Fabege have agreed on a 10-year loan of SEK 432.5m to finance Scandinavia's first zero-energy hotel in Arenastaden, Solna, just outside Stockholm.

"The loan from NIB supplements our existing sources of financing and contributes to a long fixed-term maturity. We're delighted that the Nationalarenan 3 project meets the stringent sustainability requirements set by NIB," comments Åsa Bergström, Fabege's CFO.

Financing

Fabege employs long-term credit facilities subject to fixed terms and conditions. The company's creditors mainly comprise the major Nordic banks and investors on the capital market.

FINANCING

Fabege is striving to achieve a balance between different forms of financing on both the capital and banking markets, longterm relationships with major financial backers having high priority. Fabege's bank facilities are complemented by an MTN programme of SEK 18bn, a commercial paper programme of SEK 5bn and the possibility of borrowing a maximum of SEK 6bn via SFF's secured MTN programme.

The financial markets have remained unsettled, which has resulted in continued transfers from the capital market to banks. Two new 10-year bank facilities were taken out in the third quarter, totalling over SEK 1.6bn, while bond and commercial paper maturities have been repaid. Outstanding commercial paper and bonds amounted to a total of SEK 13bn at the end of the quarter, which is a reduction of SEK 2bn compared with the previous quarter. Including the backup facilities for the commercial paper program, the undrawn facilities amounted to SEK 4.4bn

2Fabege's fixed-interest term at the end of the quarter was 2.9 years. The derivatives portfolio comprised interest rate swaps totalling SEK 17,950m, maturing in 2032 and bearing fixed annual interest of between – 0.18 and 1.30 per cent.

Net financial items included other financial expenses of SEK 24m, which mainly related to accrued opening charges for credit agreements and costs relating to bond and commercial paper programmes. During the period, interest totalling SEK 13m (12) relating to project properties was capitalised.

Fabege firmly believes in the ability of the financial market to contribute to a more sustainable society, and is keen to play an active role in its transition towards greater accountability. In 2020, Fabege achieved its target of 100 per cent green financing, which was also the case for this quarter. Further steps have also been taken to extend our sustainable financing by linking it to the EU's new taxonomy. In addition to stringent energy efficiency requirements, this includes climate analyses that assess risks associated with climate change such as flooding, strong winds, intense heat and other extreme weather events.

GREEN FINANCING

Fabege's green financing framework was updated in June 2022. The framework has been designed to give Fabege broad opportunities for green financing and is based on third partycertified properties and ambitious energy consumption targets. It is based on the green bond principles, adapted to the EU taxonomy and linked to Fabege's ambition to contribute to the goals of Agenda 2030. CICERO has issued a second opinion with ratings of 'medium green' for the green terms and conditions and 'excellent' for governance. Green financing offers Fabege better terms and access to more financing alternatives.

Operations Jan–Sep 20221

Activity in the rental market remained strong and net lettings totalled SEK 69m over the period. Renegotiations made a positive contribution of 10 per cent towards the rental value in renegotiated leases. Projects progressed as planned, however projects in the start-up phase were subject to increased costs.

PROPERTY PORTFOLIO AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

Fabege's property management and urban and property development activities are concentrated on a few selected submarkets in and around Stockholm: Stockholm inner city, Solna, Hammarby Sjöstad and Flemingsberg. On 30 September 2022, Fabege owned 103 properties with a total rental value of SEK 3.9bn, lettable floor space of 1.3m sqm and a carrying amount of SEK 89.4bn, of which development and project properties accounted for SEK 15.4bn.

OCCUPANCY RATE

The investment property portfolio's financial occupancy rate was back up at 90 per cent in the third quarter (90 per cent at year-end). The biggest vacancies relate mainly to three properties in Solna Business Park. Contractually agreed occupancies and departures in the investment property portfolio are expected to contribute an additional SEK 35m in regular annual rental income over the next few quarters. The financial occupancy rate for development properties is not measured as most of these properties are vacant, or have been partially let on short-term contracts pending demolition or redevelopment. These cover a surface area of 236 thousand sqm, of which 142 thousand sqm are being let for a current annual rent of SEK 207m. Significant ongoing projects make up a lettable area of approximately 156 thousand sqm, with a rental value of SEK 405m. The project portfolio's occupancy rate was 27 per cent at the end of the quarter.

NET LETTINGS

During the period, 109 (101) new leases were signed with a combined rental value of SEK 176m (231), and 83 per cent (82) of the space was attributable to green leases. Lease terminations amounted to SEK –107m (–101). Net lettings amounted to SEK 69m (130). Leases totalling SEK 94m (153) were renegotiated, with an average rise in rental value of 10 per cent (12). Leases worth SEK 88m were also extended on unchanged terms. The retention rate during the year was 87 per cent (76).

CHANGES IN THE PROPERTY PORTFOLIO

Generatorn 10, in Flemingsberg, was acquired during the first quarter. There was also a property reallotment whereby Hagalund 2:10, in Haga Norra, was divided into six properties. The new properties are included in the upcoming subproject that is part of the continued development of offices and residential units in Haga Norra. The Kabelverket 2 property, in Älvsjö, was acquired during the second quarter. SHH also took possession of a residential property in Borås. Separatorn 1 in Flemingsberg was taken over in August. Properties were acquired during the period for a total sum of SEK 1,068m.

PROJECTS AND INVESTMENTS

The purpose of Fabege's project investments in the investment property portfolio is to reduce vacancy rates and increase rents in the property portfolio, thereby improving cash flows and values. Investments in existing properties

and projects during the period totalled SEK 1,617m (1,458), of which SEK 980m (1,100) related to investments in project and development properties. Capital invested in the investment property portfolio totalled SEK 637m (358) and related primarily to tenant customisations, including

SEK 124m relating to customisations for Convendum in Bocken 39, Kungsgatan.

COMPLETED PROJECTS

During the first quarter, the new construction of Poolen 1, in Arenastaden, was completed, and Tieto Evry moved into its premises on 31 March. In June, Convendum's premises in Bocken 39, in Kungsgatan, were completed.

MAJOR ONGOING PROJECTS

Redevelopment work continued at Glädjen 2, in Stadshagen, with a total estimated investment of SEK 185m. The property has been certified to BREEAM In-use, excellent standard. The first tenant moved in in June 2021. The project is progressing, with customisations for future tenants, who will move in during the fourth quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023. The occupancy rate is 71 per cent. In February, the groundbreaking ceremony was held for the construction of new premises for the Royal

The property has been certified to BREEAM-SE, very good standard.

The project to construct the first office building on the Ackordet 1 property in Haga Norra is proceeding, with assembly of the frame. The investment is estimated at around SEK 1.4bn. The property has been certified to BREEAM-SE, excellent standard. The first lease was signed in September. This brings the occupancy rate to 5 per cent.

The multistorey car park project at the Semaforen 1 property in Arenastaden is progressing. Cable laying and foundation work have been completed and work has now started on assembling the frame. The investment is expected to amount to SEK 330m following an upward adjustment to the forecast. The project is expected to make a loss of around

SEK 110m, but it will resolve a parking deficit and therefore generate cost savings for other adjacent projects.

In Flemingsberg, the project relating to the construction of offices and laboratories for Alfa Laval is continuing. Fabege took over the property, which has been named Separatorn 1, once the local development plan became legally binding. The project has been expanded to cover a lettable area of roughly 23,400 sqm excluding parking, of which Alfa Laval is leasing approximately 91 per cent. The investment is estimated at SEK 1,045m, excluding land acquisition. The increased investment cost is due to the project being

expanded, as well as higher costs for foundation work and materials. The lab areas need to bear considerable weight so construction involves a lot of steel, which is responsible for much of the increase in cost. Alfa Laval will take up occupancy in the second quarter of 2025.

Work has begun on the redevelopment of Nöten 4, Solna strand, with basic building investments. The property will be customised for a number of tenants, with an investment estimated at SEK 770m. No leases have been signed as yet.

FORTHCOMING PROJECT STARTS

Additional approved project starts include the redevelopment of the Påsen 1 property in Hammarby Sjöstad and tenant customisations for Convendum in Hägern 7, on Drottninggatan. These projects will start in the autumn.

PROJECT COSTS

Global unrest due to the pandemic and the war and rising inflation are affecting the cost of building materials and transport, for example,

which, together with the risk of delayed deliveries, may affect our cost structure and project calculations. This is especially true for the projects currently being launched, including Nöten, Påsen and projects in Flemingsberg.

SHH BOSTAD

SHH's project portfolio includes 26 projects, of which 8 are under construction, with an estimated investment volume of just over SEK 1bn. During the first quarter, construction started on a project in Botkyrka, the BRF (tenant-owner association) project Översten. A BRF project in Karlskrona was also acquired in the first quarter of 2022, together with Balder. During the second quarter, the BRF project Kaptenen in Botkyrka was completed and wrapped up. Furthermore, in the second quarter the 18 townhouses that are part of the BRF project Fyrklövern in Upplands Väsby were put on the market, with a selling rate of roughly 90 per cent. In the third quarter, 52 apartments in one of the Botkyrka projects were converted from rental apartments into tenant-owner apartments. These will be put up for sale in the fourth quarter. Following the conversions, the selling rate for BRF projects in progress totals 85 per cent. In addition, the first stage of occupancies in Vårbruket, Landskrona (13 apartments) and Slottsträdgården, Sigtuna (8 townhouses) was completed.

RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT IN JOINT VENTURES

The residential project being conducted in cooperation with Brabo in Haga Norra is proceeding according to plan. The project includes 418 apartments that are being constructed in a 3D reallotment above the facility that Fabege built for Bilia. The estimated investment totals approximately SEK 1.1bn. The project is being financed by an owner's loan. A total of 383 apartments have been sold, including 354 for which tenancy contracts have been signed and 29 for which non-binding booking agreements have been signed. Tenant-owners have moved in to 337 apartments. As the project is completed, the booking agreements will be converted into tenancy contracts. Work in progress relates to the completion of apartments ahead of the final occupancies in February 2023.

The residential project in the Lagern 3 property in Råsunda, which is being managed as part of a joint venture with TB-gruppen, has been completed, and all of the apartments are occupied. The capital gain of SEK 74m from the sale of the property to the joint venture company was recognised as a realised change in value in the first quarter of 2022. In the third quarter, the project was completed, generating a profit for Fabege of SEK 30m, which has been recognised under 'Share in profit/loss of associated companies'.

The current joint venture projects have been recognised using the equity method. Income recognition will take place on the completion of the projects.

Fabege's sustainability work

Our ambition is not limited to developing sustainable city districts, properties and premises. We aim to contribute to a sustainable Stockholm. Our sustainability strategy is an integral part of our business concept, business model and corporate culture.

Goals for 2030

  • Carbon neutral property management.
  • Halving of the climate impact of project development.

74 kWh/sqm

Average energy usage, rolling 12 months, at 30 September

GRESB 2022

In 2022, Fabege once again achieved 94 points out of 100 in GRESB's sustainability survey. The average rating was 74 points.

Goals & strategy

URBAN DEVELOPMENT

The design of the physical environment has a major impact on how we live our lives and on our well-being. Social sustainability is not a new urban planning phenomenon but is something that is constantly evolving. In Flemingsbergsdalen, work is therefore continuing on the Vinnova social sustainability in the physical environment project. During the quarter, for instance, we made leisure activities for children and young people possible through Samverkan Huddinge and BID-Flemingsberg. This was achieved through the HANG initiative, in collaboration with Huddinge basketball, the Municipal Culture and Leisure Department and the National Sports Federation. Flemingsberg residents will now be able to make fuller use of the Flemingsbergshallen. This summer, HANG is also organising 52 days of activities.

REDUCED CARBON FOOTPRINT IN PROJECTS

The targets and roadmap that we have established in support of the Paris Agreement via the Science Based Targets initiative form the backbone of Fabege's work on climate issues. By 2030, Fabege will have reduced its carbon footprint from construction projects, so that its life-cycle analysis will show a halving of its CO2e/GFA compared with 2019. Achieving this target will require us to use innovative approaches in our project development, involving reuse, the choice of materials, new technology and the imposing of stringent requirements during procurement processes. At the ongoing office project Ackordet 1 in Haga Norra, we have a current reduction in CO2 of roughly 22 per cent, with a target of 25 per cent by the final decision date.

Fabege has a long-term, target-based and integrated approach to creating more sustainable properties. Our ultimate long-term goal is for Fabege's property management to be carbon neutral, as measured in kg CO2e/sqm, by 2030. By this we mean that we will have control over all the emissions associated with our operations, and we will minimise emissions to the greatest possible extent using the tools available. We will compensate for emissions over which we have no control via carbon offsetting, for example investments in additive technology that reduces the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY TARGETS

Fabege's energy efficiency targets are divided into phases. In 2019, we already exceeded the Swedish Energy Agreement's target of 50 per cent more efficient energy use by 2030 compared with 2005. In 2021, Fabege's average energy use was 77 kWh/sqm (cumulative twelve-month result). The target is average energy consumption of 77 kWh/sqm by 2023 and the result for Q3 is 74 kWh/sqm on a rolling 12-month basis. The energy market in Europe is under considerable pressure, which will affect many companies this winter. Fabege has been actively working to improve its energy efficiency for some time, and we are proud of the fact that we now rank among the most energyefficient companies in the sector. During the quarter we stepped up our energy efficiency improvements in all types of energy, with a particular focus on electricity. In Q3, the technical operations department intensified efforts with the support of a 30-point list and is now implementing measures appropriate to each property.

ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION OF PROPERTIES

Fabege's objective is for the company's entire property portfolio to be certified to BREEAM-SE/BREEAM In-Use standard.

GREEN FRAMEWORK UPDATED IN JUNE 2022

The framework has been designed to give Fabege broad opportunities for green financing and is based on third party-certified properties and ambitious energy consumption targets. It is based on the green bond principles, adapted to the EU taxonomy and linked to Fabege's ambition to contribute to the goals of Agenda 2030. CICERO has issued a second opinion with ratings of 'medium green' for the green terms and conditions and 'excellent' for governance.

All project properties and investment properties have been certified since 2019. Fabege's new builds are certified according to BREEAM-SE, ambition level Excellent, and our investment properties according to BREEAM In-Use, ambition level Very Good. 63 of Fabege's 103 properties were certified at the end of the period. Overall, this represents 83 per cent of the total combined area of Fabege's existing portfolio. The properties for which certification has not yet begun are land and development properties for future project development.

During the quarter, work continued on driving sustainable improvements in construction, management and operations, in connection with the certifications.

All residential new builds are certified according to the Nordic Ecolabel.

SOCIAL SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVES

Fabege collaborates with customers, municipalities, authorities, other property owners and associations to create safe and attractive areas. We are continuing to focus on social sustainability in urban planning and projects as we develop the physical environment in our city districts. Fabege's actions are centred on networks and dialogue, as well as education, leisure time, health and work.

Examples of initiatives:

  • BID (business improvement district) started in Flemingsberg
  • Homework club in Flemingsberg
  • Changers Hub in Huddinge
  • TalangAkademin in Huddinge
  • Support for the Stockholm City Mission
  • Street Gallery, Solna Business Park
  • Support for local sports clubs
  • Pep Parks in Solna
  • Vinnova 'Social sustainability in the physical environment' project
  • Nature and the environment guide, containing teaching materials for grades 4, 5 & 6.

ABOUT THE SUSTAINABILITY REPORT

The following is a quarterly follow-up of Fabege's work on sustainability issues. The starting point is Fabege's annual Sustainability Report. The quarterly report has not been prepared in accordance with the GRI guidelines and therefore does not address certain issues. An overall picture of the company's sustainability work is published once a year in the Sustainability Report; more information is available at https://www.fabege.se/en/sustainability.

OPPORTUNITIES AND RISKS

Risks and uncertainties relating to cash flow from operations relate primarily to changes in rents, vacancies and interest rates. The effect of the changes on consolidated profit, including a sensitivity analysis, and a more detailed description of risks and opportunities, are presented in the section on Risks and opportunities in the 2021 Annual Report (pages 74–83).

Properties are recognised at fair value and changes in value are recognised in profit or loss. The effects of changes in value on consolidated profit, the equity/assets ratio and the loan-tovalue ratio are also presented in the section on Risks and opportunities and the sensitivity analysis in the 2021 Annual Report. Financial risk, defined as the risk of insufficient access to long-term funding through loans, and Fabege's management of this risk, are also described in the Risks and opportunities section of the 2021 Annual Report (pages 74–83).

Fabege's aims for the capital structure are to have an equity/assets ratio of at least 35 per cent and an interest coverage ratio of at least 2.2x. The target for the loan-to-value ratio is a maximum of

50 per cent max. The debt ratio will amount to a maximum of 13x.

Since the start of the pandemic, we have commented in particular on the risks and impact of the pandemic. As we no longer believe there are specific risks associated with the pandemic, this section has been deleted.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine, rising inflation and rising market interest rates have created global turmoil, which has had a negative impact on the financial markets, resulting in higher lending margins and reduced access to the capital markets. Inflation also affects the cost of construction materials and transport, for example, which, together with the risk of delayed deliveries, may affect future projects particularly. No material changes in the company's assessment of risks have arisen, aside from the above, since the publication of the 2021 Annual Report.

SEASONAL VARIATIONS

Expenses for the running and maintenance of properties are subject to seasonal variations. For example, cold and snowy winters give rise to higher costs for heating and snow clearance, while hot summers result in higher cooling costs. Activity in the rental market is seasonal. Normally, more business transactions are completed in the second and fourth quarters, which means that net lettings in these quarters are often higher.

MARKET OUTLOOK

We feel that Stockholm's rental market is stable, with healthy demand for office premises in all our locations. New lettings and renegotiations continue to be completed at good levels.

The capital market is not functioning well for property companies at present. Capital is available, but at prices that are pushing the sector towards a higher proportion of bank financing. Furthermore, rising market rates are having an adverse impact on earnings. The proportion of Fabege's fixedrate borrowing is 67 per cent, which will mitigate the effect of higher market rates for the next few years. So far, rising interest rates have had a limited impact on yield requirements in property valuations. Higher yield requirements have been met by higher inflation assumptions. The market anticipates continued rising yield requirements as market rates increase. Although there have been few completed transactions on the transaction market, those that have been completed confirm that long-term investors remain willing to pay good prices for quality in Stockholm.

Fabege has a strong financial position. We have created new investment opportunities in our locations through the acquisitions that were completed during the period. With the acquisition of SHH in the autumn we took a step towards more comprehensive urban development that extends to residential units as well. Fabege's hallmark is stability – we have a portfolio of modern properties in attractive locations, stable customers and committed employees. We are well prepared to take on the challenges and opportunities open to us on the market over the coming year.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Fabege prepares its consolidated financial statements according to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). This Interim Report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.

Disclosures in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting are submitted both in the notes and in other sections of the interim report.

The Group has applied the same accounting policies and valuation methods as in the last annual report.

New or revised IFRS standards or other IFRIC interpretations that came into effect after 1 January 2022 have not had any material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The Parent Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, and has applied the same accounting policies and valuation methods as in the last annual report.

Stefan Dahlbo CEO

Review report

We have conducted a limited assurance review of the interim report for Fabege AB (publ) for the 1 January 2022 – 30 September 2022 period. The Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our limited assurance review.

Scope and focus of the limited assurance review

We conducted our limited assurance review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, 'Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity'. A limited assurance review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other limited assurance procedures. The procedures performed in a limited assurance review vary in nature from, and are considerably less in scope than for a reasonable assurance engagement conducted in accordance with the ISA and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed consequently do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in a reasonable assurance engagement. Accordingly, we do not express a reasonable assurance conclusion.

Conclusion

Based on the limited assurance procedures we have performed, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that this interim report has not been prepared for the Group, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, and for the Parent Company in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.

Notes

NOTE 1 DERIVATIVES

Derivatives are measured at fair value as Level 2 assets. The derivatives portfolio is measured at the present value of future cash flows. Changes in value are recognised in profit or loss. Changes in value are recognised for accounting purposes and have no impact on cash flow. At maturity, the market value of derivative instruments is always zero. The valuation assumptions have not changed significantly compared with the last annual report.

NOTE 2 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

On the balance sheet date, contingent liabilities comprised guarantees and commitments in favour of associated companies of SEK 370m (704) and other 0 (0).

NOTE 3 SEGMENT REPORTING – CLASSIFICATIONS AND RECLASSIFICATIONS DURING THE PERIOD

In accordance with IFRS 8, segments are presented from the management's point of view, broken down by segment. Following the acquisition of SHH Bostad, the segment reporting has been adjusted to better highlight the various business areas. Fabege's property portfolio is classified as follows:

  • Property Management properties under ongoing, long-term management
  • Property Development properties awaiting a redevelopment or extension that will have a significant impact on ongoing property management and net operating income
  • Projects Land and development properties, and properties undergoing new construction/complete redevelopment.
  • Residential SHH's operations constitute a separate segment.

Rental income and property expenses, as well as realised and unrealised changes in the value of properties, are directly attributable to properties in the respective segments (direct income and expenses). If a property changes type during the year, the earnings attributable to the property are allocated to the respective segments based on the period of time for which the property belonged to the segments. Central administration costs and net financial items have been allocated to segments on a standardised basis according to each segment's share of the total property value (indirect income and expenses). Property assets are directly attributed to the respective segments and recognised on the balance sheet date. All revenue and expenses attributable to SHH's operations are recognised in the Residential segment.

During the fourth quarter of 2021, segment reporting was changed through the separation of development properties and ongoing projects and land properties, which means that some of Fabege's properties have been reclassified. The comparative figures have also been adjusted in accordance with the new breakdown.

The Generatorn 10 property acquired during the first quarter was classified as a land property. In March 2022, the Poolen 1 project, in Arenastaden, was completed, and from the second quarter of 2022 has been reclassified from a project property to an investment property. During the second quarter, possession was taken of the investment properties Kabelverket 2, in Älvsjö, and Solrosen 1, in Borås. During the second quarter, Nöten 4 was reclassified from an investment property to a project property. Påsen 1 was reclassified from a development property to a project property. Finally, Poolen 1 was reclassified from a project to an investment property. In the fourth quarter, the Separatorn 1 property was acquired and classified as a project property.

NOTE 4 ACQUISITIONS

On 18 October 2021, the Group acquired all of SHH Bostad AB's shares for a purchase price of SEK 880m. The preliminary acquisition analysis has been updated with an investment aid receivable for one of the properties acquired. Goodwill has been reduced by the same amount.

For further information about the acquisition, see Fabege's 2021 Annual and Sustainability Reports.

NOTE 5 THE EU TAXONOMY

Percentage of activities eligible for the taxonomy:

Percentage of activities Percentage of activities not
Total, SEKm eligible for the taxonomy eligible for the taxonomy
Rental income 2,251 100 0
Sales residential projects 132 100 0
Net Sales 2,383 100 0
Investments and acquisitions 1,717 100 0
Operating expenses 223 100 0

Percentage of activities eligible for the taxonomy:

Fabege owns and manages properties, with a primary focus on commercial properties in the Stockholm area. The majority of the property portfolio is eligible for the taxonomy and is divided into the following categories:

  • 7.1 Construction of new buildings; refers to properties under construction and project properties completed during 2021.
  • 7.2 Renovation of existing buildings; refers to development properties undergoing renovation where a significant portion of the property is affected by the project.
  • 7.7 Acquisition and ownership of buildings; refers to the majority of the Group's properties. All investment properties with a current cash flow are included.

Properties that fall outside the scope of the taxonomy are pure land properties, including SHH's development portfolio, i.e. land acquisitions for which construction has not yet started. The revenue, operating expenditure and capital expenditure relating to properties that are not eligible for the taxonomy are considered to be negligible. The Swedish trade association Fastighetsägarna is currently discussing and examining how the classification according to the different categories above should be interpreted.

Recognition of revenue:

All of the income related to properties included in the qualifying activities above is recognised. This refers to rental income, including the standard supplements. No material income that should be excluded has been identified.

Recognition of operating expenditure:

Operating expenditure includes property management costs, regular repairs, maintenance and expensed tenant customisations. SHH's construction costs for residential development are also included.

Recognition of capital expenditure:

Relates to capital expenditure for acquisitions and capitalised investment expenditure related to the properties included in the qualifying activities.

Percentage of activities aligned with the taxonomy:

It is not yet clear how the interpretation of the taxonomy framework should be fully implemented. Fabege has based its preliminary assessment on objective 1, i.e. the climate objective, including the 'Do No Significant Harm' criteria. The properties assessed as being aligned with objective 1 have an EPC-A level energy performance certificate or are in the top 15 per cent in terms of primary energy use in Sweden (in accordance with the definition applied by the Fastighetägarna (Swedish Property Federation) to existing buildings). The properties have undergone a climate resilience analysis.

According to Fabege's preliminary assessment, over 70 per cent of its revenue is aligned with the taxonomy based on compliance with objective 1, including the DNSH criteria. This assessment may change, depending on how the top 15 per cent is interpreted. The interpretation of how our properties are to be categorised according to 7.1 or 7.7 has also yet to be established, and may affect the percentage that is aligned with the taxonomy.

Capital expenditure related to the construction of new buildings by Fabege has initially been classified as non-aligned, as there is not enough information about how to interpret the requirements for Fabege to be able to say that the capital expenditure is aligned with the taxonomy at this stage. Work is underway on the interpretation of the taxonomy in order to determine whether projects may be classified as being aligned with the taxonomy. Fabege believes that, in the long run, at least part of the capital expenditure will be classified as being aligned with the taxonomy.

This is Fabege

Fabege is one of Sweden's leading property companies. We develop attractive and sustainable city districts, with a primary focus on commercial properties within a limited number of welllocated submarkets in the Stockholm region.

We are one of the largest property owners in Stockholm and have a clear strategy for our property holdings, with a portfolio grouped into clusters. The Group also includes SHH Bostad, which is a property development company focused on residential and publicservices property. The large number of residential development rights that we hold means that together we have a great opportunity to create mixed-use developments in our city districts. The concentration of our properties in well-contained clusters ensures greater customer proximity and, when coupled with Fabege's thorough knowledge of the market, creates a solid foundation for efficient property management and high occupancy rates. At 30 September 2022, Fabege owned 103 properties with a combined market value of SEK 89.4bn. Their rental value stood at SEK 3.7bn. This has been supplemented by SHH Bostad's development portfolio, comprising ongoing and future residential development projects with a value of SEK 957m.

BUSINESS CONCEPT

Fabege develops sustainable city districts, with a primary focus on commercial properties within a limited number of well-located submarkets in the Stockholm region.

Value is created via property management, property development, project development and transactions. We are keen to be a supportive partner that puts people front and centre and enables companies, locations and our city to develop.

BUSINESS MODEL

Fabege is active in three business areas: Property Management, Property Development and Transactions.

STRATEGY FOR GROWTH

Fabege's strategy is to create value by managing, improving and developing its property portfolio and through transactions, acquiring and divesting properties with the aim of increasing the property portfolio's potential. Fabege's properties are located in the most liquid market in Sweden. Attractive locations lead to a low vacancy rate in the investment property portfolio. Modern properties permit flexible solutions and attract customers. With its concentrated portfolio and high-profile local presence, investments to enhance the appeal of an area are sure to benefit many of Fabege's customers.

VALUE DRIVERS

Fabege's operations are affected by a number of external factors, such as the pricing of and demand for premises, the transaction market's required rate of return, and changes in market interest rates, which set the conditions for the company's success.

Stockholm is growing

Stockholm is one of the five metropolitan areas in Western Europe with the highest rate of population growth. The population of Stockholm County is forecast to continue to grow over the next 20 years. The most significant growth is in people in the active labour force, which is boosting demand for office premises.

Changing demand

New technology and new working methods are fuelling demand for flexible and space-efficient premises in prime locations. Peripheral services and effective communication links in the form of public transport are in increasing demand, as are environmentally-certified offices and green leases.

Economic trends

The property market is impacted by trends in both the Swedish and the global economy. Demand for premises is closely linked to GDP growth and companies' need for premises. Changes in market interest rates affect required rates of return.

Sustainable urban development

Sustainability issues are becoming increasingly important in terms of both individual properties and entire areas. Interest in environmental considerations relating to the choice of materials and energy-saving measures is on the rise. Demand is increasing for premises in areas with a good mix of offices, retail, service and residential units, and good transport links and environmental engagement.

Business model PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

The essence of Fabege's operations is finding the right premises for customers' specific requirements and ensuring customer satisfaction. This is accomplished through long-term efforts, based on close dialogue with the customer, which builds mutual trust and loyalty.

PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

High-quality property development is the second key cornerstone of our business. Fabege has long-standing experience in the management of extensive property development projects, and endeavours to attract long-term tenants for properties that have not yet been fully developed and can be redesigned based on customers' specific requirements.

TRANSACTIONS

Property transactions are an integral part of Fabege's business model and make a significant contribution to the company's earnings. The company continuously analyses its property portfolio in order to seize opportunities to generate capital growth through acquisitions and divestments.

Definitions

Fabege presents certain financial performance measures in the Interim Report that are not defined in IFRS. The company believes that these measures provide valuable supplementary information for investors and the company's management, as they enable an assessment and benchmarking of the company's reporting. Since not all companies calculate financial performance measures in the same way, they are not always comparable with measures used by other companies. These financial performance measures should therefore not be regarded as substitutes for measures defined in IFRS. The following key performance indicators are not defined in IFRS, unless otherwise stated.

ACTUAL DEFERRED TAX

Estimated actual deferred tax has been calculated at approximately 4 per cent based on a discount rate of 3 per cent. Furthermore, it has been assumed that loss carryforwards are realised over four years with a nominal tax rate of 20.6 per cent, which gives a net present value for deferred tax assets of 19.7 per cent. The calculation is also based on the property portfolio being realised over 50 years, with 10 per cent being sold directly with a nominal tax rate of 20.6 per cent and the remaining 90 per cent being sold indirectly via companies with a nominal tax rate amounting to 6 per cent, which gives a net present value for deferred tax liabilities of 4 per cent.
