Improved earnings trend during the quarter in a cautious market

The past year was probably the year that the housing market bottomed out in this economic downturn, and all our markets are now showing positive indications even if the recovery is going to take a long time on each of our submarkets. Thanks to a strong project portfolio in attractive locations with competitive production costs, JM was able in 2024 to significantly increase both sales of residential units and the number of housing starts, and we have come quite far toward our goal of 3,800 housing starts per year. But this does not mean just yet that the challenges are behind us. Price levels in the majority of our submarkets continue to be clearly below earlier peaks, and the entire construction industry has structural challenges with continued high costs that we do not expect will decrease significantly going forward. In addition, we foresee only limited price increases in 2025.

Balanced risk in current production

During the fourth quarter, the housing market in several of our markets continued to be cautious. Despite this, sales increased sharply to consumers, while the sale to investors was lower than in the strong fourth quarter of 2023. Housing starts for the quarter were in line with previous year. We have continued to balance the risk in current production through sales of rental units to investors but also started a rental project on our own balance sheet. Overall, sales in the fourth quarter amounted to 574 (773) residential units, and the number of housing starts amounted to 733 (740), which resulted in the share of sold and reserved residential units in production increasing to 59 percent (54).

JM's annual externally appraised market valuation of development and project properties showed an impairment need of SEK –72m (–258) in total, primarily related to three properties in Stockholm's outer suburbs. The market valuation underlined at the same time the strength in JM's building rights portfolio, which continued to show large surplus values of SEK 5.2bn (5.6).

Revenue during the fourth quarter was at the same level as in the previous year and amounted to SEK 3,375m (3,407). Operating profit amounted to SEK 107m (–90). Adjusted for impairment of development and project properties, operating profit amounted to SEK 179m (168) where the improvement was primarily attributable to increased earnings in the business segment JM Property Development.

Increasingly strong sales and more housing starts

JM Residential Stockholm increased its sales sharply compared to the same quarter the previous year, and the number of housing starts more than doubled. Supply on the existing home market continued to be large, which slowed price development. Lowered mortgage rates and increased optimism about future household finances, have increased customers' willingness to sign contracts in early stages. Revenue in the quarter was at the same level as the previous year, and profit improved primarily due to less of an impact from price adjustments.

"Lowered mortgage rates and increased optimism about future household finances, however, have increased customers' willing‑ ness to sign contracts in early stages"

JM Residential Sweden had somewhat lower sales in the quarter compared to the previous year. The business unit's submarkets continued to be cautious, but interest among potential homebuyers was positive despite this, which resulted in an increased number of housing starts. Revenue was lower than in the previous year due to fewer residential units in production, while operating profit improved primarily due to decreased impact from impairment.

The Norwegian market for newly produced residential units continued to be cautious, and JM Norway's sales were lower than in the previous year. However, sales to consumers were at the same level since a rental project was started and sold to investors in the fourth quarter of the previous year. There were no housing starts during the quarter. JM Norway had lower revenue and operating profit due to fewer residential units in production.

Activity on the housing market in Helsinki increased in the fourth quarter, and JM Finland sharply increased its sales to consumers, albeit from low levels. Sales to investors were lower than in the previous year. Revenue and operating margin decreased compared to the previous year due to fewer residential units in production and price adjustments in a few projects.

JM Property Development completed the office project K1 Karlbergs Strand during the quarter together with two other projects at the same time as a rental project was started on own balance sheet. Revenue increased primarily from an increase in project volume and profit improved thanks to index regulation in office projects and sales of commercial properties.

High turnover of completed residential units

Cash flow in the fourth quarter was lower than in the previous year due to lower operating profit and increased tie-up of working capital from higher project balances. A large number of residential units was completed in the fourth quarter and given that most customers continue to prefer to sell their existing home before investing in a new home, the supply of completed residential units in the balance sheet has temporarily increased. However, they have a high turnover rate.

"We will have a strong focus in 2025 on further streamlining our operations while continuing to deliver the market's best customer offer"

Sustainability central for JM

JM's leading market position with strong structural capital and extensive knowledge offers us a number of advantages but also entails significant responsibility. We want to, and do, take responsibility for the industry to lower production costs and lead times at the same time as we aim to be a leader in sustainabilityrelated matters. We are therefore pleased that, during the quarter, JM placed eighth out of 130 among Swedish listed companies in the Sustainable Companies 2024 ranking. We also recently received the basic license for Nordic Swan Ecolabel Generation 4, which places very high demands on living environment, environmental impact, and energy consumption.

JM is thus the first Nordic construction company to certify its entire production of residential units in accordance with the new Nordic Swan Ecolabel Generation 4 – in Sweden, Norway and Finland.

Good outlook

The combination of lower housing prices and high costs has put pressure on our margins during the year and will impact profit in 2025 as well, as projects for which the conditions are already established are completed and sold at low margins. JM cannot rely on increased prices to restore the good margins that have long been characteristic of housing development. We will therefore have a strong focus on further streamlining the operations in 2025 at the same time as we continue to deliver the market's best customer offer. The underlying market conditions continue to be good, with all our markets having a shortage of housing. We continue to believe in a gradual recovery in all markets in 2025 and expect to gradually increase the number of housing starts to approach our goal of 3,800 per year. JM has a strong financial position with large unutilized credit facilities, and the Board of Directors proposes a dividend of SEK 3.25 (3.00) per share. JM's market-leading position on a growing market leads me to view the future with confidence.

Mikael Åslund, President and Chief Executive Officer

Market, sales and housing starts

JANUARY– DECEMBER 2024

During 2024, inflation decreased on all of the Group's submarkets. As a result, Sveriges Riksbank and the European central bank implemented a number of interest rate cuts. Norway's central bank, however, left its policy rate unchanged since Norwegian inflation did not fall to an extent that was judged to justify a correction to the policy rate. Despite cuts, the policy rates at the end of the year continued to be at a relatively high level. The global economy continued to be instable due to high market rates and geopolitical uncertainty. The current market conditions and the large supply on the existing home market continued to impact the housing market and subsequently JM's sales, at the same time as production costs continued to be high.

There are clear signals that the housing market is improving, primarily on the Swedish and Norwegian market, and household expectations of additional interest rate cuts and rising housing prices have increased consumer interest in buying a new home. Customers' willingness to sign a contract at an early stage has also improved in Sweden.

Consumers' buying power is stronger than it was in the previous year but continued to be under pressure from a high cost level and the current interest rate level. The period from when the customer signs a contract to occupancy is usually long. The market for newly produced residential units is thus more vulnerable than the existing home market when households' finances are strained, and it therefore takes longer for the market for newly produced housing to recover.

The underlying need for residential units continues to be larger than the annual number of housing starts in all of the Group's submarkets. The Group's housing starts and number of residential units sold increased compared to the previous year, but the number of residential units in production decreased. In order for the housing market to improve and for more consumers to be prepared to buy a new home, further strengthening of buying power is required, which is expected primarily from continued interest rate cuts and higher disposable income.

Sales increased compared to the previous year, and the number of sold residential units in the form of signed contracts amounted to 2,778 (1,901).

The percentage of sold and reserved residential units in relation to current production amounted to 59 percent (54). The interval 60–65 percent is considered a normal level. JM Residential Stockholm sold 785 residential units (315), JM Residential Sweden sold 731 (534), JM Norway sold 416 (488), JM Finland sold 472 (346), and JM Property Development sold 374 (218).

The number of housing starts increased to 2,237 (1,609). JM Residential Stockholm started production on 758 residential units (231), JM Residential Sweden on 538 (443), JM Norway on 375 (405), JM Finland on 361 (375), and JM Property Development on 205 (155). The number of residential units in current production decreased to 4,558 (6,033).

Residential building rights

The number of available building rights at the end of the year amounted to 37,400 (39,100), of which 21,700 (22,700) are recognized in the balance sheet as development properties. The carrying amount of development properties decreased during the year to SEK 7,660m (8,504).

During the fourth quarter, JM's development properties were appraised and showed a surplus value of SEK 5.2bn (5.6). An impairment need for a few specific development properties was identified, which resulted in impairment of SEK 67m (181). JM acquired development properties for residential units during the year for SEK 832m (1,628), of which SEK 478m (805) relates to JM Residential Stockholm, SEK 137m (40) to JM Residential Sweden, SEK 3m (644) to JM Norway, and SEK 214m (139) to JM Finland.

Project properties

The externally appraised market value of JM's project properties was estimated to be SEK 381m (1,069) with a carrying amount of SEK 360m (1,030), of which properties under development amounted to SEK 354m (1,024). In conjunction with the market valuation conducted in the fourth quarter, one project property was written down by SEK 5m (77) in the business segment JM Property Development. Rental income from JM's project properties was SEK 66m (36). Net operating income was SEK 11m (42).

Revenue, operating profit and operating margin

JANUARY– DECEMBER 2024

Consolidated revenue according to segment reporting amounted to SEK 12,507m (13,851). The decreased revenue was primarily attributable to a low level of residential units in current production, which to some extent was offset by commercial projects in production.

Operating profit according to segment reporting decreased to SEK 531m (732), and the operating margin decreased to 4.2 percent (5.3), primarily due to price reductions in select projects, a low level of residential units in current production, high costs in current production, and impairment.

Revenue according to IFRS decreased to SEK 14,272m (15,969), which is primarily the result of a lower number of handed over residential units than in the previous year. This was to some extent offset by commercial projects in production and the sale of completed rental projects. During the period, 2,439 residential units (2,729) were handed over to consumers and revenue recognized. At the same time, 1,149 residential units (1,044) in current production have been sold to investors and for which profit and revenue are recognized gradually during construction.

Operating profit according to IFRS decreased to SEK 692m (1,510), attributable primarily to a lower number of handed over and revenue recognized residential units with a lower margin.

OCTOBER –DECEMBER 2024

Consolidated revenue according to segment reporting amounted to SEK 3,375m (3,407). The decreased revenue was primarily attributable to a low level of residential units in current production.

Operating profit according to segment reporting increased to SEK 107m (–90), and the operating margin increased to 3.2 percent (–2.6) primarily due to a lower level of impairment in development and project properties that amounted in the quarter to SEK 72m (258).

The revenue according to IFRS increased to SEK 4,001m (3,441) primarily due to the sale of the rental project Igelsta Trädkrona, which was somewhat offset by a lower number of handed over residential units. During the fourth quarter, 611 residential units (737) were handed over to consumers and revenue recognized. Operating profit increased to SEK 172m (48), primarily due to a lower level of impairment in development and project properties.

OPERATING PROFIT AND OPERATING MARGIN 1)

Financial items

JANUARY– DECEMBER 2024

Net financial items according to segment reporting deteriorated compared to the previous year due to a higher average level of interest-bearing liabilities in the period. The total interest-bearing liabilities according to segment reporting were SEK 2,780m (3,469), of which the pension liability comprised SEK 1,560m (1,546). At the end of the year, the average interest rate for the total interest-bearing loan stock including the pension liability was 4.4 percent (4.7). The average term for fixed-rate loans, excluding the pension liability, was 0.2 years (0.2).

Consolidated available liquidity according to segment reporting amounted to SEK 3,281m (4,382). Aside from cash and cash equivalents of SEK 431m (1,582), this included unutilized overdraft facilities and credit lines totaling SEK 2,850m (2,800) out of a total of SEK 3,150m (2,800), where credit agreements for SEK 2,750m (2,400) had an average maturity of 2.3 years (2.7).

Interest-bearing net liabilities including the pension liability according to segment reporting amounted at the end of the year to SEK 2,343m (1,877). Non-interest-bearing liabilities for completed property acquisitions amounted to SEK 350m (782), of which SEK 266m (419) were current.

The valuation of financial assets and liabilities showed no significant difference between carrying amount and fair value.

The effective tax rate according to segment reporting amounted to 39 percent (31) and was primarily negatively impacted by limitations on interest deduction restrictions.

Cash flow

JANUARY– DECEMBER 2024

Cash flow from operating activities according to segment reporting was SEK –268m (–48). This deterioration was primarily attributable to lower operating profit and an increase in other working capital with a negative change of SEK 1,710m mainly due to higher project balances. This was offset by net investments in development properties that decreased compared to the corresponding period the previous year and resulted in a positive cash flow of SEK 335m (–247). The change in unsold residential units in the balance sheet resulted in a positive cash flow of SEK 158m (–484). The change in the Group's project properties also led to a positive cash flow attributable to project properties of SEK 568m (−383) primarily due to payment received from property sales of SEK 735m (46) in the second and fourth quarters.

OCTOBER –DECEMBER 2024

Cash flow from operating activities for the fourth quarter was SEK −401m (404). This deterioration was primarily attributable to an increase in other working capital with a negative change of SEK 797m mainly due to higher project balances and other claims. Net investments in development properties increased and resulted in a negative cash flow of SEK −27m (168). Consolidated cash flow attributable to project properties improved and amounted to SEK 260m (−16), including payment received for property sales of SEK 325m (20).

JM Residential Stockholm

The business segment develops residential projects in Greater Stockholm. Operations include acquisi‑ tions of development properties, planning, pre‑construction, production and sales of residential units.

Average prices on the existing home market have increased since the previous year and have been stable in the fourth quarter. The total supply of residential units was large, but the supply of newly produced residential units was still at a low level.

The housing market in Stockholm was cautious, but activity gradually increased during the year. The implemented interest rate cuts and the general expectation that there will be additional interest rate cuts resulted in customers showing increased interest in JM's projects, and sales increased compared to the previous year. The willingness to sign a contract early has improved gradually during the year.

The absence of necessary authority decisions had a negative impact on the business segment's housing starts, which in the fourth quarter related to one project with 46 residential units.

During market valuation of the business segment's development properties, an impairment need of SEK 62m (75) was identified, related to three properties in Stockholm's outer suburbs, which burdened profit in the fourth quarter.

Revenue for the fourth quarter increased compared to the corresponding period the previous year, and operating profit

improved primarily due to increased sales, more housing starts, and lower price adjustments in projects.

Revenue for the year was in line with the previous year, while operating profit decreased primarily due to price adjustments in select projects and high financing costs.

Cash flow for the fourth quarter weakened compared to the corresponding period the previous year primarily due a temporary need for higher working capital and larger investments in development properties. Cash flow for the year was in line with the previous year but was primarily burdened by higher working capital and lower operating profit.

Production was started in the fourth quarter on 216 residential units in apartment buildings in Sollentuna, Stockholm and Täby.

During the fourth quarter, JM acquired and took over the legal title to approximately 60 building rights at Rindö in Vaxholm. JM also took occupancy of and started production on a previous land allocation for approximately 87 building rights on Södermalm in central Stockholm.

JM Residential Sweden

The business segment develops residential projects in growth areas in Sweden, excluding Greater Stockholm. Operations include acquisitions of development properties, planning, pre‑construction, production and sales of residential units.

Average prices on the existing home market for both tenantowned apartments and single-family homes showed small fluctuations in the fourth quarter, while for the full year average prices increased for both categories in all of the business segment's submarkets.

The supply on the existing home market continued to be at very high levels, where supply in Uppsala was significantly higher than in the previous year, while Malmö and Gothenburg were in line with the corresponding period the previous year. The supply of newly produced residential units, with the exception of Gothenburg, continued to be at very low levels.

The business segment's sales rate slowed slightly in the fourth quarter but increased compared to the previous year. The business segment continued to have a strong focus on sales of residential units that are close to the date of occupancy and completed residential units. Customers' willingness to sign a contract early was at a normal level, but there was greater interest in signing a contract early in some projects that entered production in the past year.

Revenue for the fourth quarter decreased compared to the corresponding period the previous year, primarily due to low current production and a change in project mix. Operating profit increased primarily because the business segment's development properties were burdened by impairment in the comparison period and a more stable cost level in projects.

Revenue and operating profit for the year decreased compared to the previous year due to lower current production and price adjustments in certain projects.

Cash flow for the fourth quarter weakened due to a temporary increase in the need for working capital, while cash flow for the full year improved due to fewer unsold residential units in the balance sheet.

During the fourth quarter, production was started on 158 residential units in total, of which 135 in apartment buildings and 23 single-family homes, at Lomma Strandstad in Lomma, at Öjersjö in Partille, and at Kongahälla in Kungälv. Approximately 100 building rights were acquired in the fourth quarter in Härryda and Örebro.

CASH FLOW

JM Norway

The business segment develops residential projects in Norway. Operations include acquisitions of development properties, planning, pre‑construction, production and sales of residential units.

Inflation has been steadily decreasing since 2022, and unemployment in Norway is at a low level. Norway's central bank left the key rate unchanged and is maintaining its assessment that the first interest rate cuts will occur in the spring of 2025. There are also signs of increased activity on the housing market and an expectation of rising housing prices in 2025, but the sale of newly produced residential units continued to be at a low level.

The prices on the existing home market decreased in the fourth quarter but with a clear increase in December. Prices increased for full-year.

Both the sale of residential units on the existing home market and newly produced residential units on the Norwegian market were at a high level compared to the previous year. JM's sales to consumers were at the same level as in the previous year. The number of housing starts in apartment buildings in Norway was higher than in the previous year but was still at a low level.

Revenue and operating profit for the fourth quarter decreased compared to the corresponding period the previous year primarily due to lower sales and production volume and that the business segment sold land for residential development in the previous year.

Revenue for the year decreased compared to the previous year due to lower production volumes. Operating margin improved thanks to the sale of developed land for residential development.

Cash flow for both the fourth quarter and the year improved compared to the previous year, primarily due to a lower level of investments in development properties and payment received for the sale of developed land for residential development.

There were no housing starts, and no building rights were acquired in the fourth quarter.

JM Finland

The business segment develops residential projects in Finland. Operations include acquisitions of development properties, planning, pre‑construction, production and sales of residential units.

Activity on the housing market in the Helsinki region continued to increase slightly in the fourth quarter at the same time as the European central bank made two further cuts to the interest rate. Despite lower accommodation costs, the low consumer confidence continued to limit customers' willingness to buy a home. The price level on the existing home market at the end of the fourth quarter was at a slightly lower level than in the previous year.

Sales in the fourth quarter were lower than in the previous year primarily due to decreased sales to investors. Sales for the year increased compared to the previous year, and sales to consumers increased sharply, both in the fourth quarter and for the year.

During market valuation of the business segment's development properties, an impairment need of SEK 5m was identified, which burdened profit in the fourth quarter. Business segment revenue and operating profit for the fourth quarter decreased

compared to the corresponding period the previous year, primarily due to lower sales, price adjustments in a few projects, and a lower number of project starts.

Revenue for the year was in line with the previous year, while operating profit decreased primarily due to price adjustments in some projects and higher development costs.

Cash flow for the fourth quarter weakened compared to the corresponding period the previous year primarily due to payment made for previously acquired development properties. Cash flow for the year improved compared to the previous year due to project starts with a higher land value for development properties and higher invoicing from the projects.

Production started in the fourth quarter on a total of 154 residential units in Helsinki and Tampere. In total, approximately 1,350 residential building rights were acquired in the fourth quarter, of which 400 were in Espoo and 950 in Helsinki.

JM Property Development

The business segment primarily develops rental units, residential care units and commercial properties in Greater Stockholm. The operations include JM@home, which offers economic and technical manage‑ ment services to tenant-owners associations as well as housing services.

The business segment's revenue and operating profit for both the fourth quarter and the full year increased compared to the previous year. This was due to an increased project volume in current production, index regulation of the purchase price in an ongoing office project, and the sale of commercial properties at Bolinder Strand in Järfälla that was completed in the fourth quarter and the legal title transferred at a gain of SEK 37m.

During market valuation of the business segment's project properties, an impairment need of SEK 5m was identified in a property, which burdened profit in the fourth quarter.

Cash flow for both the fourth quarter and the full year improved compared to the previous year as a result of payment received for the legal transfer of completed projects and commercial properties sold.

During the fourth quarter, the rental project Igelsta Trädkrona, the office project K1 Karlbergs Strand, and the residential care project Pilhamns Gårdar were transferred to buyers.

During the fourth quarter, production was started on the rental project Bovetet at Söderdalen in Järfälla, consisting of 205 rental units on JM's own balance sheet. The project is the fourth rental project JM is developing and producing in the area and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2027.

The business segment has one project in current production, the rental project Flora with estimated completion in the third quarter of 2025, for which profit and revenue recognition occurs gradually during construction.

Sustainable development

Sustainability is an integrated part of JM's residential and urban development, from the acquisition of land and throughout the entire design phase until the customers move in and are living in Swan Ecolabel homes in areas that promote a sustainable lifestyle. Structured work environment initiatives, efforts to prevent accidents, quality-assured supplier chains, and active efforts to improve diversity and equal opportunity are central components of JM's sustainability work.

JM works continuously on climate improvements for concrete in order to be able to reach its climate target of close to zero emissions in 2030. The concrete is responsible for more than half of the Group's carbon emissions, with cement accounting for the largest share of the concrete's climate impact. During the fourth quarter, JM conducted a pilot study in Norway using paving slabs that were made of concrete without traditional cement. The largest emissions from traditional cement come from the chemical process during which limestone is burned to cement followed by the emissions from energy used during the burning. The pilot study's concrete uses binders from finely ground rock from the mining industry, which are also called geopolymer. The climate improvement entails a decrease in CO2 emissions by 85–90 percent compared to traditional cement as the binder in concrete. The technology will be evaluated for potential use in more products, primarily in exterior construction components and in the longer term in weight-bearing constructions.

During the fourth quarter, a decision was made that all projects in Finland that enter production in 2025 will use concrete with Global Warming Potential (GWP.85) in joints cast in place. GWP.85 entails a 15 percent decrease in climate impact compared to the Finnish benchmark concrete. Approximately 20 percent of the emissions from a project's construction material comes from concrete in joints cast in place and constitutes the largest climate impact of all construction components.

At the end of 2024, JM received the basic license for Nordic Swan Ecolabel Generation 4. This means that all projects that enter the planning stage in 2025 will apply the new Nordic Swan Ecolabel criteria. JM is thus the first Nordic construction company to certify its entire production of residential units in accordance with the new Nordic Swan Ecolabel Generation 4 – in Sweden, Norway and Finland.

Nordic Swan Ecolabelled buildings meet strict requirements on the material that is used to ensure a healthy living environment, decreased environmental impact, and low energy consumption. The certification also places strict requirements on a quality-assured construction process and that the project has been reviewed by a third party. JM has certified all of its started residential projects in its own operations in accordance with Nordic Swan Ecolabel since 2018. The largest change from Nordic Swan Ecolabel Generation 4 is that the criteria apply to a greater extent to climate, climate adaptation, circular economy, and biodiversity.

JM placed eighth out of 130 listed Swedish companies in the latest Sustainable Companies 2024 ranking, which was published for the seventh consecutive year by Lund Universjty on behalf of the media publications Dagens Industri and Aktuell Hållbarhet. In addition, JM achieved a prestigious second place in the category Consumption Goods.

Notes

Note 1 Accounting principles

This year-end report and interim report for the fourth quarter of 2024 were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Annual Accounts Act. The consolidated accounts have been prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU. The Parent Company's accounts were prepared in accordance with RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities.

Amended standards as of 2024

No amendments to standards and interpretations that entered into force on January 1, 2024, have had a material impact on this financial statement.

Change in accounting principle operating segment

As of January 1, 2024, the operating segment JM Construction has been absorbed into the Group since the business no longer is of such a scope that it constitutes its own business segment. Other than this, the accounting principles and methods of calculation for the Group have not changed compared to the description on pages 71–75 in the 2023 Annual and Sustainability Report.

Segment reporting

JM's segment reporting primarily differs from IFRS in three respects:

  • In the segment reporting, revenue from the Group's housing development is recognized gradually over time.
  • In addition, project financing within JM Norway and JM Finland and parts of the project financing in JM Residential Stockholm, JM Residential Sweden and JM Property Development are recorded as a deduction item to "Revenue less progress billings" or "Progress billings in excess of recognized revenue" and raised/repaid project financing is reported in the cash flow from operating activities.
  • The reporting of leases in accordance with IFRS 16 is not applied in the segment reporting.

JM makes the assessment that segment reporting most accurately reflects the economic implications of JM's business at the same time as it correlates well with the Group's internal governance, which is based on the Group's cash flows, risk profile and capital allocation.

The percentage of completion method in JM and the accounting of gross profit for the housing business consists of three components: incurred costs (cost-based effect), assessment of expected margin (revaluation effect), and sales rate of projects (sales effect).

Profit/loss components are reported quarterly and are not accumulated. The table starts with the business segments' gross operating profit (excluding net rental income from project and

development properties) for the housing business. For definitions of profit/loss components in the housing business, see the document entitled "Definitions key financial figures" at jm.se/en/about-us/ investors
