Jacob Karlsson, CEO of K-Fast Holding AB
Uncertain economic conditions continue to affect society as a whole, including the property and construction sectors. The challenges this gives rise to need to be addressed throughout society, by everyone from private individuals to businesses, politicians and other decision makers.
In the housing sector, construction starts continued to decline as a result of the general uncertainty and a transaction market where buyers and sellers are still not finding each other fully. However, I am able to conclude that prices of building rights have settled at a lower level than previously while building costs stabilized, which means that it is still possible to find business opportunities at attractive levels for K-Fastigheter. We are therefore continuing to start construction on new projects, and acquired a further two building rights for a total of nearly 200 apartments in Eskilstuna and Ale municipality in the first quarter . We are seeing that prices of building rights in locations and with pricing levels that were previously not a good fit with K-Fastigheter, are now being priced at levels that are reasonable for us. We plan to continue to actively add to our land bank as the right opportunities arise.
As I said in the Year-end Report, market conditions have increased the direct return requirement on our properties, which has led to lower valuations. Since the peak in the second quarter 2022, the direct return requirement in our valuations increased by 0.4 - 0.5 percentage points, which means that the market value of our properties fell by a total of approximately 5 percent. This applies to existing properties as well as ongoing construction projects, which are all valued on a quarterly basis by external parties. The fact that we still increased the Group's total property value to nearly SEK 13.6 million at the end of the first quarter evidences our self-sufficient and cost-effective growth capacity, where we continuously acquire new building rights, start new construction and build new rental apartments, which continues to satisfy both the company's internal as well as our banks' return requirements. Overall, since the end of the first half 2022, we
have generated value growth in new construction of some SEK 360 million factoring in lower market valuations, to be compared to the lower total market values of some SEK 375 million for completed investment properties at the end of the first half 2022. This illustrates the resilience of our business model even in such turbulent times as over the past 12 months.
However, a changing market climate brings with it new conditions, and given the higher interest rates and because projects with a lower loan-to-value ratio require more equity, we have decided to revise our goal of 1,300 construction starts in 2023 to 1,000. The goal beyond 2023 will be set later in the year. I consider that this level of construction starts represents an aggressive approach given the current market conditions, which really proves that K-Fastigheter has a strong business model that controls the entire value chain from project development through prefab, construction and on to management. I believe that our business model makes us better equipped to withstand the toughening market conditions than many other sector operators. The projects now being started have an internal minimum yield on cost of 5.7 percent, with several started projects are closer to 6 percent. By a lower loan-to-value ratio, we ensure a satisfactory yield on debt on construction starts which, in turn, ensures continued future financing.
At present, our production-to-value ratio (PTV) is 73.6 percent. PTV is coming under pressure because the market value of our properties has decreased since summer 2022, as well as from increased development costs, mainly in the form of higher interest rates on building credits. I am proud that we have successfully offset last year's cost increases through efficiency gains, and the cost of projects where we assume total responsibility for production (including sales tax) in 2022 only increased by SEK 90/m2 produced living area. This means I am convinced that we will maintain a low PTV and remain one of the market's most costefficient developers of new rental apartments in Sweden almost regardless of market developments looking ahead.
In the first quarter, our construction organization handed over a total of 125 apartments to the management organization. Our housing portfolio comprised a total of 3,833 apartments at the end of the quarter, with a further 1,986 apartments currently in production. At the end of 2023, our management portfolio will comprise some 5,000 apartments in line with previously announced targets. Since our IPO in fall 2019, when we first communicated this target, this represents growth of 220 percent or 3,438 new apartments.
Our rental income for the quarter increased by 44 percent in year-on-year terms. At the same time, gross profit from property management increased by as much as 47 percent despite the fact that rental increases for 2023 will not feed through until in the second quarter, and that costs for electricity, heating and water in the period were significantly higher than in the first quarter 2022. The surplus ratio also increased in the quarter, despite management-related central expenses being distributed over the property administration from the third quarter 2022 onwards. This suggests that our high rate of completion is gradually starting to feed through to profit.
This year's rent increases mean that from April onwards we will increase rents including heating and water by some 4.9 percent, and rents excluding heating and water by some 3.5 percent. The rent increases necessary to fully offset increased costs, in particular higher interest rate expenses, will need to be implemented in multiple steps over time. This means that compared to owneroccupier housing, tenants in rental apartments have maintained more of their purchasing power despite the rent increases, and rental properties will remain competitive even in a potential recession.
Both the construction and prefab operations returned positive results in the first quarter, with construction operations positively affected by high activity in intra-Group projects, and prefab operations experiencing high activity levels and strong order books for the remainder of the year, largely because of a growing
proportion of intra-Group construction. We have also realigned production, with a lower rate of external housing production and an increase in properties for warehousing/logistics, industry and infrastructure. This includes deliveries to DSV's large logistics facility in Landskrona. In the first quarter 2023, K-Prefab presented gross profit close to SEK 23.8 million, compared to SEK 11.3 million in the corresponding quarter of the previous year.
There is substantial demand for new housing in Sweden. Rental housing has many advantages and is a natural part of the mix of title formats available. My conviction is that in the long term it is wise to invest in and own rental apartments, and thus play a part in social developments.
- Jacob Karlsson, May 2023

On 31 March 2023, the Group's property portfolio comprised 112 completed investment properties1 distributed over a total of 249,145 square meters of residential and 46,419 square meters of commercial space. In addition, the Group had 23 ongoing construction projects, distributed over 130,574 square meters of residential and 1,140 square meters of commercial space, as well as the construction of Hässleholm Rusthållaren 3 & 4, which encompass 8,000 square meters of lettable area, much of which will be home to the Group's new head office and will therefore be classified as business property. Furthermore, K-Fastigheter has 24 projects in progress in the project development phase, at various stages of building permit application or project planning, of which 12 are projects for which K-Fastigheter has yet to take possession of the land.
Of the property holding, 57 percent was built after 2020 and a total of 85 percent after 2010. Newsec assesses that all of the properties are in category A or B locations in the communities where the Group operates. As of 31 March 2023, contractual rent amounted to SEK 482.6 million, with an estimated operating surplus of SEK 360.2 million, corresponding to a surplus ratio of some 75 percent. For newly produced concept buildings, the corresponding potential surplus ratio is some 79 percent, and approximately 68 percent for other properties in the portfolio. Of the contractual rent, 88 percent pertains to housing or related rentals (such as parking) divided between the 3,833 apartments under property management at the end of the period. Contractual rent from commercial tenants is distributed over some 180 commercial contracts, with the largest tenant accounting for approximately 2 percent of total contractual rental income and the 10 largest commercial tenants accounting for approximately 5 percent of total contractual rental income.
K-Fastigheter's management operations are divided into three regions: South, West and East. 88 percent of property values are located in region South, encompassing Skåne, Denmark and southern Småland. Region West encompasses Halland and the
Västra Götaland region. Region East includes the Mälardalen region and Nyköping and Gävle. As of 31 March 2023, 92 percent of the market value and 93 percent of the contractual rent related to investment properties in Sweden and 8 percent of the market value and 7 percent of the contractual rents related to investment properties in Denmark.
Each quarter, K-Fastigheter conducts an external or internal valuation of all completed investment properties and properties under construction. As of 31 March 2023, all properties have been valued by an independent external valuer. The valuation forms the basis for fair value recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and the value change is recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement. All investment properties have been assessed as level 3 in the value hierarchy in accordance with IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement.
At the end of the period, the value of investment properties totaled SEK 13,596.1 million (13,094.6), distributed over completed investment properties of SEK 9,787.1 million (9,775.3), undeveloped land and building rights of SEK 802.3 million (695.1), site leases of SEK 18.0 million (18.0) and construction in progress of SEK 2,988.6 million (2,606.1). During the period, SEK 588.2 million (427.3) was invested in new construction, extensions and remodeling. During the period, acquisitions totaled SEK 138.0 million (283.5). There were no divestments in the period (3.4).
Unrealized change in value in investment properties for the period were SEK -222.9 million (239.9), of which SEK -307.4 million (68.2) for properties under management and SEK 84.5 million (171.6) for construction in progress. During the first quarter of 2023, the direct return requirement in external valuations of completed properties and properties under construction increased by approximately 0.15 - 0.20 percentage points due to changed market conditions. All in all, the change means that the market value for completed properties and properties under construction

during the quarter decreased by 2.5 percent. Since the second quarter 2022, the corresponding downturn was some 4.5 percent for comparable investment properties, negatively affected by an increased direct return requirement from some 0.40 - 0.50 percentage points and increased costs for operations and maintenance, offset by increased rents and expectations of future rent inflation.
At the end of the period, the direct return requirement in the valuation of construction in progress amounted to 4.12 percent (3.78) compared to 4.01 percent at the end of 2022. On completion, the estimated market value of the construction in progress amounted to SEK 6,074.4 million (6,251.4).
At the end of the period, the average direct return requirement for properties under management amounted to 4.15 percent (3.76) compared to 4.03 percent at the end of 2022. For the full property portfolio, including undeveloped land, building rights and construction in progress, the average direct return was 4.14 percent (3.77), compared to 4.02 percent at the end of 2022. The fact that the increase in the average direct return requirement during the

period was not higher, taking into account the general increase during the last nine months, is primarily because K-Fastigheter's property portfolio increasingly consists of a higher proportion of homes in better locations.

Information on completed investment properties includes estimates and judgments. Contractual rent refers to the contract value on the balance sheet date recalculated at an annualized rate. Rental value refers to contractual rent plus estimated rent for vacant spaces. Property costs refer to budgeted property costs on an annual basis and are exclusive of property administration. The estimates and judgments involve uncertainties and the disclosures above should not be viewed as a forecast.
Details of construction projects and project development in progress on pages 6 and 7 are based on assessments of the size, focus and scope of construction projects and project development in progress, and of when projects are scheduled to commence and be completed. These details are also based on estimates regarding future investments and rental value. These estimates and judgments should not be viewed as a forecast. The estimates and judgments entail uncertainties regarding the execution, design and scale, scheduling, project costs and future rental value of the projects. Details of projects in progress are reviewed regularly and estimates and judgments are adjusted as a result of projects in progress being completed or new ones being added, as well as due to changes in conditions. Financing has not been secured for projects where construction has yet to commence, meaning that financing of construction investments in project development represents a source of uncertainty.

7 1. Data relates to K-Fastigheter's share of potential joint venture.
2. Accrued investment refers to the total costs incurred in each construction project. The carrying amount refers to the consolidated value adjusted for Group eliminations and includes the accrued change of SEK 1,002.6 million in the value of investment properties.
The table to the right presents the earnings ability of K-Fastigheter's completed investment properties and properties under construction as of 31 March 2023. Projects where construction has not started have not been included. Earnings ability is not a forecast for the current year or later periods but is to be viewed solely as a theoretical snapshot and is presented for illustrative purposes only. Current earnings ability does not include an assessment of future rent trends, vacancy rates, property costs, interest rates, changes in value, acquisitions or divestments of properties, or other factors.
Current earnings ability is based on properties held and properties under construction as of 31 March 2023 and their financing, meaning that current earnings ability illustrates the earnings of the management operations, on an annual basis, at that point in time. For ongoing construction projects, interest costs are based on existing loan-to-value ratios and variable interest at the end of the period. Vacancies for ongoing construction projects are based on existing vacancies in completed investment properties. The Income Statement for the management operations is also affected by developments in the value of the property portfolio, as well as

Earnings ability is based on contractual and estimated rental income from the property portfolio, estimated property costs for the year based on historical outcomes for properties under management, as well as property administration costs and central administration costs relating to the Property Management business area estimated for the year based on the current scale of administration. Costs for interest-bearing liabilities have been based on current interest-bearing liabilities and current interest rates (including the effects of derivative instruments) at the end of the period.
The following diagram illustrates current rental values for completed investment properties as of 31 March 2023 plus expected rental values of construction projects in progress of investment properties as of 31 December 2023 as these properties are completed or handed over.
Information on completed investment properties and construction projects in progress includes estimates and judgments. Rental value refers to contractual rent plus estimated rent for vacant spaces. The estimates and judgments involve uncertainties and the information in the diagram should not be viewed as a forecast.

At the end of the period, K-Fastigheter financed its assets exclusively through bilateral loans with Nordic banks. Consolidated interest-bearing liabilities at the end of the period amounted to SEK 9,104.6 million (8,461.4), of which SEK 2,097.8 million (2,049.9) was classified as current interest-bearing liabilities. Interest-bearing liabilities are distributed between first mortgages for completed investment properties of SEK 5,891.3 million (5,743.2), construction credits of SEK 1,859.1 million (1,591.2), leasing liabilities of SEK 92.8 million (93.1), operating and acquisition credits of SEK 1,011.4 million (783.8) and a promissory note relating to the acquisition of K-Prefab of SEK 250.0 million (250.0). The debt-to-equity ratio for the Group amounted to 58.1 percent (55.4) and the loan-to-value ratio for completed investment properties totaled 59.8 percent (58.2).
At the end of the period, the Group had contracted credit agreements of SEK 10,589.8 million (9,671.6), of which SEK 5,891.3 million (5,743.2) related to the financing of completed investment and business properties, of which SEK 1,404.1 million (1,706.9) mature for renegotiation within the next 12 months. In addition to the financing of completed investment and business properties, contracted credit agreements comprise building credits of SEK 3,266.0 million (2,867.1) and operating and acquisition credits of SEK 1,182.5 million (1,061.3), of which SEK 270.0 million (292.5) and SEK 87.5 million (93.8) relates to acquisition financing of K-Prefab and Mjöbäcks Entreprenad AB respectively. At the end of the period, building credits and operating and acquisition credits had been utilized at an amount of SEK 1,859.1 million (1,591.2) and SEK 1,011.4 million (783.8) respectively.
The average period of capital tied up for the Group's interestbearing liabilities relating to acquisition financing and completed investment and business properties amounted to 2.2 years (2.4) as of 31 March 2023.
K-Fastigheter currently works exclusively with variable interest
rate loans. Interest rate derivatives, primarily interest rate swaps, are used to adjust the period of fixed interest. Nominally, the swap portfolio totaled SEK 4,909.0 million (4,407.7) at the end of the period. The fair value of the interest derivative portfolio at the end of the period was SEK 349.4 million
(404.9). The average interest period for the Group's interestbearing liabilities related to acquisition financing, investment and business properties was 3.2 years (3.4), and the average interest rate was 2.93 percent (2.72), including the effects of interest rate derivatives, and 4.59 percent (3.85) excluding the effects of interest rate derivatives. The average interest expense in relation to contracted building credits amounted to 4.42 percent (3.92) at the end of the period. The total proportion of variable interest in relation to interest-bearing liabilities related to acquisition financing, investment and business properties was 21 percent (27), and the interest rate sensitivity in the event of a 1 percentage point shift in loan rates amounted to SEK 13.4 million (17.2).
In order to increase the degree of hedging and to hedge new loans as building credits are converted into long-term financing, during the first quarter of 2023 we continued to focus on restructuring elements of the swap portfolio. This has been achieved by closing older swaps and using the accrued market value in new swaps with shorter terms but with a higher swap volume and fixed interest rates that are far lower than the market interest rate for
equivalent swaps at a given time and with a particular term. In the first quarter, we thereby increased the swap portfolio by SEK 500 million, decreased the proportion of variable interest from 27 to 21 percent, and reduced interest sensitivity from SEK 17.2 million to SEK 13.4 million while the debt portfolio relating to completed investment properties increased by 2 percent to SEK 6,498.8 million. The average period of fixed interest has not been affected because the shorter terms in the swap portfolio have been mitigated by the higher degree of hedging and the total average interest rate has been positively impacted because the new swaps have lower fixed interest rates than the variable interest on the underlying loans in the debt portfolio. Efforts to restructure the swap portfolio will also continue in the future and are made possible thanks to the positive market value generated in the portfolio during the last year.

The following profit and cash flow items relate to the period 1 January 2023 - 31 March 2023. Comparative items relate to the corresponding period in the previous year. Balance Sheet items and comparative figures relate to the position at the end of the period in the current and previous year. All amounts are indicated in SEK million.
Total income for the period was SEK 296.4 million (352.4). The decrease was due to an increased proportion of intra-Group sales, mainly in Prefab's operations. Rental income amounted to SEK 114.4 million (79.3) in the period, which is an increase of 44 percent year-on-year. The increase was primarily due to more apartments under management, which increased by 26 percent to 3,833 apartments (3,050). However, the increase does not include agreed rent increases for 2023, as these will not feed through until April 2023. The financial occupancy rate gradually decreased in the period and was 95.8 percent (97.4) at the end of the period. The deterioration was assessed to be due to the high rate of completion, and can therefore be considered temporary.
Income from project and construction operations for the period amounted to SEK 567.3 million (464.6), of which SEK 387.7 million (195.1) related to construction for Group companies that has been capitalized for the Group's own purposes. The increase was due to higher activity in the construction of apartments for proprietary management, and at the end of the period 1,986 apartments (1,880) were in production, an increase of 6 percent compared to the corresponding period in 2022. External income for project and contracting operations amounted to SEK 179.6 million (269.5) in the period, of which Prefab's income was SEK 176.5 million (268.5). In Prefab, total income for the period amounted to SEK 314.0 million (305.7), of which SEK 136.2 million (34.6) related to intra-Group sales. Prefab has thus, despite an increasingly challenging market climate, been able to maintain and increase total income, mainly through increased internal sales.
Property management costs totaled SEK 42.7 million (29.6) for the period, corresponding to an increase of 44 percent year-onyear. The operating surplus amounted to SEK 73.3 million (50.0), up 47 percent year-on-year. The increased costs compared to the corresponding period in the previous year was primarily due to a higher number of apartments under management, increased electricity, heating and water costs and the fact that from the end of the first half of 2022 the company included central managementrelated costs in property administration, which amounted to SEK 4.6 million for the first quarter of 2023. The surplus ratio for the period amounted to 64.1 percent (63.0). The average occupancy rate was 95.0 percent (94.8) for the period, and 95.8 percent (97.4) at the end of the period. Operating costs for management operations normally vary according to a seasonal pattern, where costs are higher in the first and fourth quarters compared to the other quarters, which also affects the surplus ratio for these periods.
Costs relating to the project and construction operations comprise direct project-related costs and fixed costs associated with the Construction and Prefab organization. Operations related to external construction and production is reported in the Income Statement. Project and contracting operations for Group property management activities have been capitalized as work for the Group's own purposes and have been reported net in the Income Statement under Project and contracting costs. Gross profit during the period amounted to SEK 6.7 million (-3.1) for the Construction business area and SEK 23.8 million (11.3) for the Prefab business area. During the period, gross profit in the Construction business area was positively impacted by a high level of activity in intra-Group projects. The Prefab business area's gross profit was positively affected by increased income and more stable costs compared to the first quarter 2022 when inflation gained momentum and the Covid-19 pandemic was still impacting operations.

Central administration, which includes Group-wide management, business development, project development, IR/communications and market, HR, IT and finance, amounted to SEK 12.1 million (17.6) for the period. The decrease compared to the corresponding period in the previous year was partly due to lower non-recurring costs, and partly because the company distributed management and project development costs over costs for property administration and project and construction operations from the end of the first half of 2022. Distributed costs for the period amounted to SEK 4.6 million and SEK 1.4 million respectively.
Depreciation/amortization and impairment for the period amounted to SEK 17.0 million (14.9). Total depreciation/amortization was SEK 16.7 million (14.7), of which SEK 3.0 million (2.8) was attributable to amortization of intangible assets for the period.
Profit/loss from participations in associated and jointly controlled companies amounted to SEK -3.1 million (3.3). Profit/loss was primarily affected by K-Fastigheter's share of profit in PVS Mark & VA Holding AB, Mjöbäcks Entreprenad AB and Novum Samhällsfastigheter AB.
Net interest income for the period was SEK -48.8 million (-23.1). At the end of the period, the average interest rate was 2.93 percent (1.74), including the effects of interest rate derivatives. During the period, interest expenses on construction credits of SEK 26.0 million (6.9) were capitalized. The average interest expense in relation to contracted building credits amounted to 4.42 percent (1.92) at the end of the period. Interest expenses in the period compared to the equivalent period in the previous year, were negatively affected by increased interest-bearing liabilities relating to acquisitions of investment properties and new construction, as well as by higher base rates. The interest coverage ratio for the period and on a rolling 12-month basis was a multiple of 2.1 (3.0), a figure adversely affected by lower net interest income which was not fully offset by increased gross profit.
Profit from property management in the period amounted to SEK 32.1 million (26.0), up 23 percent year-on-year. Profit from property management per share amounted to SEK 0.15 for the period attributable to the Parent Company shareholders (0.12), which is an increase of 23 percent year-on-year. The increase can primarily be attributed to higher rental income as a result of more apartments under management.
Unrealized change in value in investment properties for the period were SEK -222.9 million (239.9), of which SEK -307.4 million (68.3) for properties under management and SEK 84.5 million (171.6) for construction in progress. During the first quarter of 2023, the direct return requirement in external valuations of completed properties and properties under construction increased by approximately 0.15 - 0.20 percentage points due to changed market conditions. All in all, the change means that the market value for completed properties and properties under construction during the quarter decreased by 2.5 percent. Since the second quarter 2022, the corresponding downturn was some 4.5 percent for comparable investment properties, negatively affected by an increased direct return requirement from some 0.40 - 0.50 percentage points and increased costs for operations and maintenance, offset by increased rents and expectations of future rent inflation.

The average direct return requirement for K-Fastigheter's entire property portfolio, including undeveloped land and building rights and new construction in progress, amounted to 4.14 percent (3.77) at the end of the period. The fact that the increase in the average direct return requirement during the period was not higher, taking into account the general increase during the last nine months, is primarily because K-Fastigheter's property portfolio increasingly consists of a higher proportion of homes in better locations. For more information, see the Property portfolio and Valuation sections.
Changes in the value of derivatives amounted to SEK -54.2 million (179.7) for the period. The trend in the period was primarily caused by lower market rates, which had a negative impact on the market value of the Group's interest rate derivatives. The fair value of the Group's interest rate and exchange rate derivatives was SEK 344.9 million (399.1) at the end of the period. The change in value for interest rate derivatives does not affect cash flow, and at maturity the value of the derivatives is always zero.
Current tax for the period amounted to SEK 0.2 million (1.5). Deferred tax was positive in the period, amounting to SEK 56.7 million (95.9), mainly affected by unrealized value changes on properties.
Profit for the period was SEK -195.8 million (328.2), corresponding to SEK -0.91 per share (1.52) attributable to Parent Company shareholders. Comprehensive income for the period totaled SEK -191.2 million (330.3). Other comprehensive income includes translation differences relating to K-Fastigheter's foreign operations, which totaled SEK 4.6 million (2.1) in the period. The full amount relates to items that can be reversed in a later period.

Intangible assets comprise goodwill and other intangible assets primarily arising in connection with the acquisition of K-Prefab. At the end of the period, goodwill amounted to SEK 443.6 million (443.6) and other intangible assets, comprising the value of K-Prefab's customer relations, amounted to SEK 33.6 million (36.6).
At the end of the period, the value of investment properties totaled SEK 13,596.1 million (13,094.6), distributed over completed investment properties of SEK 9,787.1 million (9,775.3), undeveloped land and building rights of SEK 802.3 million (695.1), site leases of SEK 18.0 million (18.0) and construction in progress of SEK 2,988.6 million (2,606.1). For more information, see Property portfolio and Valuation.
The value of business properties and equipment at the end of the period amounted to SEK 463.5 million (447.6) and SEK 193.5 million (193.6) respectively.
At the end of the period, cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 11.1 million (35.4). In addition, K-Fastigheter has an unutilized overdraft facility of SEK 172.8 million (277.4).
At the end of the period, Group equity amounted to SEK 4,978.3 million (5,169.6), which corresponded to SEK 23.03 per share attributable to Parent Company shareholders (23.92). The decrease is explained by comprehensive income for the period of SEK -191.2 million (330.3). At the end of the period, the Group's equity/asset ratio was 31.8 percent (33.9).
At the end of the period, long-term net asset value (NAV) amounted to SEK 5,575.2 million (5,768.3), corresponding to SEK 25.89
per share (26.79) attributable to Parent Company shareholders, a decrease of 3 percent compared to 31 December 2022.
Consolidated interest-bearing liabilities at the end of the period amounted to SEK 9,104.6 million (8,461.4), of which SEK 2,097.8 million (2,049.9) was classified as current interest-bearing liabilities. The debt-to-equity ratio for the Group amounted to 58.1 percent (55.4). Of the Group's interest-bearing liabilities, SEK 5 851.3 million (5,693.3) related to completed investment properties and the loan-to-value ratio for completed investment properties was 59.8 percent (58.2). The increase in interest-bearing liabilities was primarily due to financing of construction in progress and completed new constructions, as well as acquisitions in the period. The market value of the Group's interest rate and exchange rate derivatives at the end of the period totaled SEK 344.9 million (399.1). For more information, see the Financing section.

In the Year-end report, K-Fastigheter presents certain financial measures that are not defined in accordance with IFRS. K-Fastigheter believes that these measures provide valuable additional information to investors and management as they enable assessment of the company's performance. Since not all companies calculate financial measures in the same way, these are not always comparable to measurements used by other companies. Accordingly, these financial measures should not be considered as a replacement for measures defined in accordance with IFRS. The table to the right presents financial measures that are not defined in accordance with IFRS.
Definitions and information about KPIs can be found at k-fastigheter.com/en/investors/
Compared with the 2022 Annual Report, the definitions of the alternative key performance indicators have not changed.

Preparing financial reports in accordance with IFRS requires Group management to make assessments, estimates and judgments that affect how accounting principles are applied and the carrying amounts for assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and judgments are based on historical experience and other factors that appear reasonable under the prevailing circumstances. The results of these estimates and judgments are then applied in assessing the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, which would not otherwise be evident from other sources. Actual outcomes may deviate from these estimates and judgments.
K-Fastigheter's operations, financial position and profit may be affected, directly or indirectly, by a number of risks, uncertainties and external factors, where the effect on the Group's operating profit can be controlled to a varying degree. To limit risk exposure the Group applies internal regulatory frameworks, policies and control systems. K-Fastigheter's significant risks, exposure and management are described in the 2022 Annual Report.
At the time of preparing the current Year-end Report, the war in the Ukraine has been underway for over a year. To date, the war has had a significant but not material effect on K-Fastigheter's operations, and has so far mainly affected the pricing of certain input goods, maybe above all steel and energy prices. It has also had the indirect effect of increasing energy and fuel prices, as well as interest expenses to an increasing extent.
The impact of the war in Ukraine on K-Fastigheter's future operations remains uncertain, but assessments will be carried out regularly and will be reported in future Interim Reports. Additional information may also be presented through press releases.
K-Fastigheter's offering meets the market's demand for quality housing at the right cost. The Group's concept buildings, developed in-house, generate conditions for cost control and financial efficiency throughout the chain, from building rights to property management. It is the Group's view that demand remains favorable in Skåne, particularly in the Öresund region and in the Västra Götaland and Mälardalen regions, and in areas with structural housing shortages.
Property management is associated with certain seasonal variations primarily in charges related to heating costs. With regard to contracting operations, seasonality is mainly associated with weather and holiday periods, which means that performance in the first quarter, the summer months, and December is weaker than in the rest of the year.

The ownership structure as of 31 March 2023, based on data from Euroclear Sweden and K-Fastigheter.

K-Fastigheter's flexible one to three-story multi-family dwellings can be constructed either as semi-detached houses, terraced houses or link houses with one or two-story apartments. The apartments are available in four sizes: one bedroom, a living room and a kitchen totaling 60 square meters; two bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen totaling 75 square meters; three bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen totaling 90 square meters; and three bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen on two stories totaling 94 square meters.
Ground level foundation plate, aerated three-layer wooden frame, delivered in prefabricated units.

apartments
K-Fastigheter's neighborhood-structure multi-family dwellings can be constructed up to ten stories high. There are two standard space-efficient apartment formats for Lateral Low-Rise buildings: one bedroom, a living room and a kitchen totaling 49 square meters and two bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen totaling 59 square meters. It is also possible to have apartment alternatives that are either larger or smaller. To meet market demand and make the best possible use of building rights, K-Fastigheter has chosen to make its Lateral Low-Rise as adaptable as possible with regard to floor plans, with opportunities for underground garages and commercial premises on the ground floor, for example.
Supporting concrete structure with concrete floor units and separating walls between apartments and lightweight external wall units.

Hällan – 38 Apartment Block apartments
K-Fastigheter's Apartment Blocks are square-footprint multi-family dwellings that can be from four to ten stories high. The Apartment Blocks have four apartments on each floor: two with one bedroom, a living room and a kitchen totaling 62 square meters and two with two bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen totaling 71 square meters. All apartments are equipped with spacious 27-square-meter balconies facing two directions. The Apartment Block is particularly suited for construction on difficult terrain because multiple designs are available for the ground floor. For example, on plots with uneven terrain, the ground floor can be constructed to include a semi-basement. K-Fastigheter has continued to develop the Apartment Block concept on the basis of this experience, resulting in the concept Apartment Block Plus. Apartment Block Plus is a rectangular structure containing six apartments per story. Apartment Block Plus is a hybrid, which allows for more choice, and can be built as a freestanding apartment block, or as two buildings connected at the gables, which creates a structure visually similar to K-Fastigheter's Lateral Low-Rise housing units.
Entirely concrete structure with sandwich exterior walls, uniform walls separating apartments and floor units. The roof is available in three options: pent, pitched or hipped. The facade color can be individualized and there is a selection of balcony railings to choose from.
K-Fast Holding AB ("K-Fastigheter") is a project development, construction, prefab and property company focused primarily on rental housing properties, which, as of 31 March 2023, accounted for 91 percent of the property value of the completed property portfolio and for 88 percent of the contractual rent. As of 31 March 2023, K-Fastigheter's property portfolio encompasses a lettable area of approximately 296,000 square meters distributed between more than 3,833 homes and 180 commercial contracts with an annual rental value of some SEK 483 million. The project portfolio also comprises over 6,000 apartments under construction and in project development.
K-Fastigheter's overarching goal is to generate value for the company's shareholders. Over a business cycle, value creation is measured as growth in long-term net asset value per share.
| ਸੋ | |
|---|---|
In the long term, rental income from housing is to comprise at least 80 percent of K-Fastigheter's total rental income.
At the end of 2023, K-Fastigheter is to manage at least 5,000 apartments in the Nordic region.

The aim is to ensure growth in net asset value and profit from property management while maintaining a stable and sound financial position, and balanced financial risk-taking, meaning:
For K-Fastigheter, sustainability is a concept that spans more dimensions than focusing solely on environmental impact. K-Fastigheter values commitment in its own operations, and commitment to sustainability issues that are high on the agenda of the Group's customers, suppliers and public authorities.
K-Fastigheter mainly pursues initiatives in product development, procurement and social sustainability. K-Fastigheter's business concept is to construct concept buildings, that is, a limited number of alternative buildings that can be adapted to each location. The foundation is a systematic working method, providing optimal resource utilization and ensuring both superior quality and a beneficial working environment. By using an industrial process in proprietary production facilities, consumption of materials, logistics and other resources can be planned in detail, reducing waste, streamlining flows and lowering costs in areas that do not create value.
Since early 2019, electricity in K-Fastigheter's properties has been procured exclusively from suppliers offering electricity from renewable sources, mainly wind power. Since the second quarter of 2021, K-Fastigheter has been installing solar panels on all new-build Lateral Low-Rise buildings and Apartment Blocks. The Group has also begun installing solar panels on its production facilities.
K-Fastigheter participates in Global Compact, the UN's principles for business governing human rights, working environment, anticorruption and the environment.
