Hotel demand was good during most of the fourth quarter, supported by increased business travel, stable leisure travel and good average price development in general. Demand gradually slowed during the second half of the quarter due to a new virus variant which led to increased infection rates and new restrictions. The domestic and regional hotel markets saw the best development again in the fourth quarter, with the UK remaining at the top. Occupancy in the Nordic regional markets was periodically well in line with the 2019 levels*.
The development experienced in the fourth quarter is a clear indication that underlying demand is strong and that there is substantial pent-up demand among both leisure and business travellers to travel and meet in person – and this demand is growing with each new round of restrictions.
Pandox's total revenue and net operating income increased by 42 and 37 percent respectively compared with the fourth quarter of 2020. For comparable units the increase was 49 and 32 percent respectively, adjusted for currency effects. The majority of Pandox's revenue was made up of contractual minimum rents and fixed rents within Property Management. The amount contributed from revenue-based rents and revenue from Operator Activities was higher than in the third quarter. Occupancy for comparable units in the Property Management and Operator Activities business segments amounted to around 51 percent (22) and 38 percent (12) respectively in the fourth quarter.
At the end of the fourth quarter Pandox acquired the 146-room Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile for around MGBP 40.5. This is an attractive hotel property in an exciting segment in a dynamic and growing city. The hotel is strategically and centrally located in one of the UK's most attractive hotel markets with well-diversified demand and very good RevPAR levels. This acquisition gives Pandox exposure to the extended stay segment, a segment of our portfolio that we hope to be able to grow over time.
Pandox has reported positive cash earnings every quarter since the pandemic started and the Company's financial position is strong. As of 31 December 2021, the net loan-to-value ratio was 49.8 percent and cash and cash equivalents plus unutilised credit facilities amounted to MSEK 3,576. Refinancing transactions equivalent to MSEK 2,313 were executed during the quarter. The majority of credit facilities maturing in 2022 will mature in the fourth quarter.
As previous communicated, Pandox is expecting the hotel market's recovery to take place in phases – provided that restrictions are eased and economic activity remains high – with six development levels and with various market segments gradually building up demand in the hotel market:
-
- Cities and countries open up and restrictions are gradually lifted
-
- Hotels open
-
- Domestic leisure travel with a growing high-paying segment
-
- Domestic business travel
-
- Conferences and international travel
-
- Group travel
Each phase will contribute to increased occupancy and revenue, which in turn will create the conditions for higher average prices and increased revenue per room.
Throughout the pandemic the hotel market has vacillated between levels 1 and 4. Pandox's assessment is that the hotel market is currently in a holding pattern between levels 3 and 4. In the wake of eased restrictions the hotel market is expected to quickly recover the ground lost at the end of the fourth quarter, supported by increased domestic business travel.
The trend in the fourth quarter shows once again that there is a substantial pent-up desire for travel, which is quickly converted into demand once restrictions are reduced and it becomes easier to travel. Good average prices also signal a high willingness to pay for a hotel stay.
With the spread of the omicron variant the pandemic has entered a new phase. There is discussion in many countries about removing restrictions and finding new ways to live with the virus that have less impact on society. With the exception of Germany and Canada, the authorities in all of the countries where Pandox operates have now announced a date – mostly in February – for when Covid-19 restrictions will be lifted. This will lead to higher hotel demand and will also likely increase demand predictability and stability.
So far in the first quarter hotel demand has been higher than in the corresponding period last year. The first quarter is also seasonally the weakest one of the year.
The recently announced and implemented easing of restrictions has resulted in more booking inquiries from both individuals and businesses. In the most recent phase of restrictions, businesses have opted to postpone meetings rather than cancel them altogether, because the need for meetings is constantly growing. Pandox has therefore made the assessment that the hotel market is in a good position to quickly recover lost ground once restrictions are eased again.
Taking into account the effects of the pandemic and the Covid-related government support received, the Board of Directors is proposing no dividend payment for 2021.
*Benchmarking Alliance based on open hotel
Pandox is monitoring and evaluating the business climate on an ongoing basis and is in close dialogue with tenants in the Property Management business segment regarding their respective situations.
Contractual guaranteed minimum rents plus contractual fixed rents amount to just over MSEK 1,900 on an annual basis.
Agreements are reached with tenants on temporary changes to payment terms where this is possible and appropriate. During the fourth quarter, rents were received in line with original and temporary payment terms. No reductions in hotel rents have been granted. As of 31 December 2021, accounts receivable relating to deferred rent under temporary payment terms amounted to the equivalent of MSEK 590, compared with MSEK 649 as of 30 September 2021.
Pandox received government grants in Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Norway totalling the equivalent of MSEK 8 in the fourth quarter (MSEK 7 in the third quarter of 2021). These have been recognised as revenue under "Other property revenue".
For more information, see pages 6, 7 and 24.
Pandox benefitted from relief programmes within Operator Activities in Belgium, Germany, Canada, the UK and the Netherlands equivalent to around MSEK 28 in the fourth quarter (MSEK 15 in the third quarter of 2021), most of which is for previous periods. This is recognised as a cost reduction within "Costs" in Operator Activities.
In addition, around MSEK 13 (MSEK 10 in the third quarter of 2021) was transferred directly from authorities to Pandox's employees in the form of salary support for furloughed personnel. These amounts are therefore not included in Pandox's numbers.
For more information, see pages 6, 7 and 24.
Planned investments in 2022 amount to the equivalent of around MSEK 890.
For more information, see page 9.
Pandox performs internal valuation of its hotel property portfolio, and investment properties are recognised at fair value in accordance with accounting standard IAS 40. Operating properties are recognised at cost less depreciation and any impairment. Internal valuations of operating properties are reported for disclosure purposes only and these are included in EPRA NRV calculations.
External valuations of all properties are normally carried out annually by independent property appraisers. The external appraisers complete a more in-depth inspection at least every three years or in conjunction with major changes to the properties. The external valuations provide an important reference point for Pandox's internal valuations, to the extent that differences compared with internal valuations are analysed to challenge the internal valuation. It is Pandox's lenders who decide, or in certain cases participate in decisions, on which external appraiser to retain, which hotel properties to appraise and when to do it.
The valuation model consists of an accepted and proven cash flow model, where the future cash flows that the hotel properties are expected to generate are discounted by the market's yield requirements. The valuation is based on the hotel's business plan, which is updated at least twice a year and takes into consideration aspects such as development in underlying operator activities, market development with a particular focus on supply and demand, the contract situation, operating and maintenance issues, and investments aimed at maximising the hotel property's cash flow and return in the long term.
At the end of the fourth quarter Pandox's valuation of the hotel properties was based on the same method and the established cash flow model used since the IPO in 2015 as reviewed and approved by the independent auditor appointed by the stock exchange.
Pandox has mainly managed uncertainties associated with the Covid-19 pandemic though the cash flow forecasts that are the basis for the valuations. Uncertainty over the impact of the pandemic on future cash flows has decreased due to increased vaccination rates, eased government restrictions and the strength of the hotel market's recovery. There is still some uncertainty about possible long-term and lasting effects of Covid-19 on the hotel market in general.
The pandemic's effects on valuation yields cannot be established yet with certainty, mainly because there is still insufficient supporting evidence in transaction markets for the hotel property valuation process. Under normal circumstances Pandox's estimated yield requirements tend to be very similar to those obtained from external property appraisers. These are in turn based on the market yield, which, subject to availability, has been derived from transactions of comparable hotel properties. However, the complexity due to the Covid-19 pandemic has led to increased uncertainty about the future and a higher degree of estimates and assessments, including regarding the market's yield requirements. The higher degree of assessments of yield requirements has resulted in a greater deviation between Pandox's yield requirements and certain yield requirements used by the external property appraisers in their calculations. Pandox's management of the complexity and the necessary assessments has been discussed and analysed internally within the Company and by Pandox's Audit Committee, Finance Committee and the Board of Directors on an ongoing basis.
Pandox is carefully monitoring the parameters that impact valuations. As the effects of Covid-19 become clearer, it is expected to be possible to estimate valuation yield and future cash flows with greater precision.
Pandox believes that the Covid-19 pandemic is transitional in nature and will have a limited effect on long-term yield requirements based, for example, on the following:
-
- Generally strong recovery in both leisure and business demand once restrictions are eased
-
- Pandox's main exposure is to hotel markets with primarily domestic demand that have been more resilient in the face of increased restrictions and have seen faster and stronger recovery when restrictions have been eased
-
- In 2021 some domestic hotel markets periodically performed at the same or a higher level than in the corresponding period in 2019
-
- Accommodating banks and otherwise open credit and stock markets
-
- Government relief programmes for tenants enabling continued payment of rent
-
- Falling valuation yield for other types of properties has increased the difference in valuation yield compared with hotel properties
The differences between internal and external valuations gradually decreased in 2021. Around 98 percent of the properties have been subject to external valuation over the past 12 months and overall the outcomes are around 1 percent lower than Pandox's internal valuations – ranging from around +8 percent to around -12 percent per country/region. The negative deviation is mainly explained by external valuations performed in the UK and Ireland during the period of the pandemic when uncertainty was the highest (December 2020/January 2021). Since then there has been strong recovery in these markets, but this is not yet reflected in the external valuations.
During the fourth quarter 77 external valuations were performed. Overall these are around 1 percent higher than Pandox's internal valuations – ranging from around +14 percent to around -4 percent per country/region.
See page 23 for information on the properties' market value by country.
In the fourth quarter the unrealised changes in value amounted to MSEK 97 for investment properties. The unrealised changes in the value of operating properties amounted to MSEK -13.
Since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic in the first quarter of 2020 the unrealised and realised changes in value have totalled MSEK -2,147 for investment properties and MSEK -977 for operating properties, equivalent to a combined reduction of -4.9 percent, mainly explained by lower anticipated cash flows.
For more information, see pages 9 and 21 and 23.
Pandox's financial position is strong. As of 31 December 2021, the net loan-to-value ratio was 49.8 percent and cash and cash equivalents plus unutilised credit facilities amounted to MSEK 3,576.
Pandox's debt financing consists exclusively of credit facilities from 11 Nordic and international banks secured mainly with mortgage collateral. Short-term credit facilities with a term of less than one year amount to MSEK 5,891, of which MSEK 4,693 matures in the fourth quarter of 2022. During the quarter, Pandox completed refinancing of the equivalent of around MSEK 2,313.
At the Group level, Pandox's financial covenants are:
-
- Loan-to-value ratio at a level where Pandox's financial loan-tovalue target provides comfortable headroom
-
- Interest coverage ratio at a level where revenue from contractual minimum rents and fixed rents alone provides satisfactory headroom
Pandox has a positive and close dialogue with its lenders on refinancing and adjustment of terms and covenants in existing credit agreements taking Covid-19 into account. In the fourth quarter, lenders provided waivers in individual credit agreements. For more information, see page 10 and 11.
To address the financial impact of Covid-19 on Pandox, certain tax actions have been implemented, for example correction of preliminary tax payments, and deferral of VAT payments and property tax. Tax payments, mainly VAT for 2020 and the first nine months of 2021, equivalent to around MSEK 28 have, for example, been deferred. The full deferred amount is expected to be paid in the first quarter of 2022.
Pandox is continually monitoring all new tax incentives that are offered in the jurisdictions where the Company operates and will act when it is deemed appropriate to do so.
Hotel market demand increased initially in the fourth quarter thanks to a better restriction situation. However, as the spread of primarily the omicron variant of Covid-19 increased, a number of limitations and restrictions were reintroduced in Pandox's markets, and this slowed the initial strong development during the second half of the fourth quarter.
Stricter restrictions in combination with a seasonally weak end to the year resulted in occupancy in Europe* decreasing slightly to 54 percent in the fourth quarter, compared with around 59 percent in the third quarter and around 25 percent in the fourth quarter of 2020.
Initially, demand from the business segment increased in the fourth quarter, driven by more companies returning to their physical offices and becoming more active in travel and conferences. An easing of restrictions on the public/participants at, for example, cultural and sporting events compensated to some extent for a seasonally weaker period for leisure. On the negative side there were some remaining and reintroduced restrictions, which from the beginning of November adversely impacted hotel demand again. In general, however, the most recent wave of restrictions has not been as lasting and extensive as in the past, with Germany as an exception where the situation was significantly more restrictive than in countries like Sweden and the UK in the fourth quarter. As in the past, cities and markets that are highly dependent on demand from international travellers and from the event and conference segment were hit harder than cities and markets with mainly domestic leisure demand. Overall, however, the activity level and occupancy were significantly higher in the fourth quarter of 2021 than in the corresponding period the previous year.
From a seasonal and restriction standpoint, the hotel market is currently in a holding pattern, although the outlook is significantly brighter than in the corresponding period in 2021. Vaccination rates are high, the spread of infection is slowing, and the restriction situation has already improved in several countries. An active discussion is underway about the need to manage Covid-19 in an endemic context, i.e. to live with the virus without extensive restrictions that have a negative impact on society. Many external analysis institutes also are optimistic about the hotel and travel industry in a broader context in 2022.
In the Nordics* overall occupancy in the fourth quarter was 56 percent compared with 60 percent in the third quarter. Demand in Nordic regional cities was strong with the exception of the second half of December, partly explained by a weaker season and partly by new restrictions. Altogether, occupancy for Nordic regional cities amounted to a good result of 56 percent, compared with 58 percent for the corresponding period in 2019 before the pandemic hit.
Nordic capitals also experienced a positive trend, with increased demand from all segments. The occupancy gap between regional cities and capitals decreased significantly. Occupancy in the four capitals combined was 55 percent in the fourth quarter, compared with 70 percent in the corresponding period in 2019. One of the explanations for the difference is that a significant share of international demand was lacking and that demand for larger conferences and events is lower.
Germany** was relatively quick to impose renewed limitations and restrictions in the quarter. Occupancy for the country as a whole amounted to around 46 percent, compared with around 53 percent in the third quarter. There are still relatively large differences between markets, depending on the composition of the demand.
In the UK** where new restrictions were introduced later and were milder than in other countries, occupancy was around 65 percent for the country as a whole in the fourth quarter. Occupancy in UK Regional was 66 percent and in London 62 percent, making a difference of around 4 percentage points. This can be compared with 18 percentage points in the third quarter. In general, the average prices continued to improve in the fourth quarter, which is explained by the hotel markets starting to have a more normal mix of demand and by a high willingness to pay for a hotel stay, especially in the leisure segment for attractive domestic markets and hotels.
- Demand is dependent on the level of restrictions
- The leisure segment is the first to recover and hotels and destinations with a strong leisure offering are the most attractive in early phases
- Hotels that are easy for guests to reach by car or train have an advantage
- Markets with high domestic demand are recovering first
- Potential for increased domestic and regional tourism as long as international restrictions are in place
- Recovery takes longer for hotels with significant conference activity and that are highly dependent on international demand
- Good economic activity and increased household saving has created the conditions for a further increase in demand once restrictions are lifted
- Pent-up demand for travel among individuals and companies, which increases each time there is a new round of restrictions
- Discussion about living with Covid-19 begins

Revenue from Property Management amounted to MSEK 648 (570), an increase of 14 percent. The majority of Pandox's revenue was made up of contractual minimum rents and fixed rents within Property Management, but the amount contributed by revenue-based rent increased and amounted to around MSEK 144. The increase is explained by a generally milder restriction situation in all markets, despite reintroduced restrictions towards the end of the quarter. Leisure demand remained strong during weekends at the same time as demand from the business segment increased. Revenue includes one-time revenue in the form of government grants equivalent to MSEK 8. For comparable units, revenue increased by 18 percent, adjusted for currency effects.
Revenue from Operator Activities amounted to MSEK 326 (117), an increase of 179 percent. For comparable units, revenue increased by 197 percent and RevPAR by 317 percent, adjusted for currency effects. The large revenue increase is explained by stable leisure demand, strong recovery in the business segment and the beginnings of conference activity, mainly in October. The increase was from low levels, explained by the fact that Pandox's Operator Activities segment has high exposure to large conference hotels in international markets, particular Brussels, which have seen relatively weaker development during the pandemic. Three hotels were closed for most of the quarter – two for renovation and one due to trade union negotiations.
The Group's net sales amounted to MSEK 974 (687). For comparable units, net sales increased by 49 percent, adjusted for currency effects.
Net operating income from Property Management amounted to MSEK 542 (478), an increase of 13 percent. For comparable units, net operating income increased by 14 percent, adjusted for currency effects.
Net operating income from Operator Activities amounted to MSEK 26 (-64). Pandox received government grants during the quarter totalling the equivalent of around MSEK 28 within Operator Activities relating to previous periods. In addition, around MSEK 13 was transferred directly from authorities to Pandox employees in the form of salary support for furloughed personnel. These amounts are therefore not included in Pandox's numbers. Read more on page 3 and in the section "Operator Activities".
Total net operating income amounted to MSEK 568 (414), an increase of 37 percent.
Central administration costs amounted to MSEK -52 (-41), of which MSEK -5 (-5) was depreciation. The cost increase is explained by increased costs relating, among other things, to external property
valuation, system upgrades, office renovations and forming of a foundation.
EBITDA amounted to MSEK 521 (378), an increase of 38 percent.
Financial expense amounted to MSEK -229 (-228), of which MSEK -20 (-22) consists of depreciation of capitalised loan arrangement fees.
Financial income amounted to MSEK 2 (1). Financial expense associated with right-of-use assets amounted to MSEK -21 (-21).
Profit before changes in value amounted to MSEK 195 (62), an increase of 215 percent.
Unrealised changes in the value of investment properties amounted to MSEK 97 (-533). Realised changes in the value of investment properties amounted to MSEK -12 (0).
Unrealised changes in the value of derivatives amounted to MSEK 187 (109), mainly explained by changed long-term market interest rates. See also pages 10–11.
Current tax amounted to MSEK -78 (-2), mainly explained by higher revenue in countries with limited opportunities for intra-Group eliminations as well as differences between booked and final tax amounts for 2020. Deferred tax amounted to MSEK -127 (59). See also page 11 and the section "Deferred tax".
Profit for the period amounted to MSEK 258 (-305) and profit for the period attributable to the Parent Company's shareholders amounted to MSEK 259 (-300), which is equivalent to SEK 1.41 (-1.63) per share.

Revenue from Property Management amounted to MSEK 2,422 (2,399), an increase of 1 percent. Most of the revenue consisted of minimum rent and fixed rent, but the share of revenue-based rent increased gradually during the period. Revenue includes one-time revenue in the form of government grants equivalent to MSEK 26. For comparable units, revenue increased by 6 percent, adjusted for currency effects.
A weak first six months caused by restrictions was followed by a significantly stronger second half of the year, driven by a clear improvement in demand. The recovery is explained by high economic activity, eased restrictions and pent-up demand for travel in all segments.
Revenue from Operator Activities amounted to MSEK 851 (779), an increase of 9 percent. For comparable units, revenue increased by 12 percent and RevPAR by 22 percent, adjusted for currency effects. The revenue increase is explained by a strong recovery in the second half of 2021, mainly explained by an increase in business travel. Four hotels were closed for part of the second half of the year – three for renovation and one due to trade union negotiations.
The Group's net sales amounted to MSEK 3,273 (3,178). For comparable units, net sales increased by 7 percent adjusted for currency effects.
Net operating income from Property Management amounted to MSEK 2,027 (2,018). For comparable units, net operating income increased by 5 percent, adjusted for currency effects.
Net operating income from Operator Activities amounted to MSEK -22 (-168). Pandox received government grants during the period totalling around MSEK 185 within Operator Activities. In addition, around MSEK 83 was transferred directly from authorities to Pandox employees in the form of salary support for furloughed personnel. These amounts are therefore not included in Pandox's numbers. Read more on page 3 and in the section "Operator Activities".
Total net operating income amounted to MSEK 2,005 (1,850).
Central administration costs amounted to MSEK -157 (-171), of which MSEK -20 (-20) was depreciation.
EBITDA amounted to MSEK 1,868 (1,699), an increase of 10 percent.

Financial income amounted to MSEK 4 (2).
Financial expense associated with right-of-use assets amounted to MSEK -88 (-86).
Profit before changes in value amounted to MSEK 542 (458), an increase of 18 percent.
Unrealised changes in the value of investment properties amounted to MSEK -368 (-1,779), most of which is explained by reduced cash flows. Realised changes in the value of investment properties amounted to MSEK -18 (0).
Unrealised changes in the value of derivatives amounted to MSEK 740 (-221), mainly explained by changed long-term market interest rates. See also pages 10–11.
Current tax amounted to MSEK -128 (-57), mainly explained by higher revenue in countries with limited opportunities for intra-Group eliminations and differences between booked and final tax amounts for 2020. Deferred tax amounted to MSEK -149 (191). See also page 11 and the section "Deferred tax".
Profit for the period amounted to MSEK 609 (-1,408) and profit for the period attributable to the Parent Company's shareholders amounted to MSEK 610 (-1,399), which is equivalent to SEK 3.32 (-7.61) per share.

Rental income and other property revenue amounted to MSEK 648 (570), of which MSEK 8 consists of government grants which are recognised under "Other property income". The majority of Pandox's revenue consisted of contractual minimum rent and fixed rent, although a gradual improvement of business conditions also resulted in a higher contribution from revenue-based rent. Marginal variable revenue was noted in the quarter in 16 leases with minimum levels, the majority of which in Sweden, compared with 11 leases in the third quarter.
On 1 October 2021 Motel One Copenhagen (previously h27) was reclassified from Operator Activities to Property Management.
Occupancy at comparable hotels amounted to around 51 percent during the quarter, compared with around 22 percent in the corresponding quarter of 2020 and around 55 percent in the third quarter. The improvement is explained by high economic activity and milder restrictions which in turn led to higher demand in all segments.
Hotels with mainly local demand, such as interstate hotels, hotels in smaller cities as well as destinations with an attractive leisure offering continued to perform well. Hotels in regional markets, such as Stockholm, Manchester, and Düsseldorf, noted positive development, supported by an increase in business demand and more meetings and events.
Net operating income amounted to MSEK 542 (478), an increase of 13 percent. For comparable units, revenue increased by 18 percent while net operating income increased by 14 percent, adjusted for currency effects.

Revenue from Operator Activities amounted to MSEK 326 (117), an increase of 179 percent. The increase in revenue is due to the same drivers as for Property Management and the fact that within Operator Activities Pandox has full and direct earnings exposure. Occupancy at comparable hotels amounted to around 38 percent during the quarter. Holiday Inn Brussels Airport was closed for renovation for much of the quarter and DoubleTree by Hilton Montreal was closed for the whole quarter due to trade union negotiations. Occupancy for comparable hotels in the same quarter of 2020 amounted to 12 percent.
Pandox's hotel in Nuremberg remained closed for renovation and its reopening is planned for September 2022.
Hotels that saw particularly good development during the quarter were Hotel Hubert (Brussels, Belgium), Radisson Blu Glasgow (Scotland) and InterContinental Montreal (Canada).
For comparable units, revenue increased by 197 percent and RevPAR by 319 percent, adjusted for currency effects.
Net operating income amounted to MSEK 26 (-64).
Pandox received government grants during the quarter totalling the equivalent of around MSEK 28 within Operator Activities, most of which relates to previous periods. In addition, around MSEK 13 was transferred directly from authorities to Pandox employees in the form of salary support for furloughed personnel. These amounts are therefore not included in Pandox's numbers. Read more on page 3 and in the section "Operator Activities".
At the end of the period, Pandox's property portfolio had a total market value of MSEK 62,596 (59,542), of which Investment Properties accounted for MSEK 52,215 (50,181) and Operating Properties for MSEK 10,380 (9,361). As of the same date the carrying amount of the Operating Properties portfolio was MSEK 8,015 (7,363).
At the end of the period, Investment Properties had a weighted average unexpired lease term (WAULT) of 14.0 (14.6) years.

At the end of the fourth quarter of 2021, approved investments for ongoing and future projects amounted to approximately MSEK 1,280, whereof MSEK 890 is expected to be completed during 2022. In 2021, total investments and maintenance have amounted to approximately MSEK 982 and MSEK 47, respectively.

*The graphs above show the breakdown between Pandox's revenue in the Property Management segment in 2021 compared with 2019, which was not affected by the Covid-19 pandemic and is an approximation of a normal financial year.
At the end of the period the loan-to-value net was 49.8 (48.7) percent. Equity attributable to the Parent Company's shareholders amounted to MSEK 25,213 (23,880). EPRA NRV amounted to MSEK 31,905 (30,813), equivalent to SEK 173.54 (167.60) per share. Cash and cash equivalents plus unutilised credit facilities amounted to MSEK 3,576 (5,221). In addition, there are additional credit facilities that, at any given time, fully cover the issued volume under the Pandox commercial paper programme.
At the end of the period the loan portfolio amounted to MSEK 32,752 (31,629), excluding loan arrangement fees. Unutilised credit facilities amounted to MSEK 1,983 (2,599) and the volume issued under the commercial paper programme amounted to MSEK 2,191 (0).
Pandox has a continued positive and close dialogue with its lenders on refinancing as well as necessary adjustment of terms and covenants in existing credit agreements with consideration to Covid-19. In the fourth quarter, lenders have provided waivers in individual credit agreements.
Short-term credit facilities with a term of less than one year amount to MSEK 5,891, of which MSEK 4,693 matures in the fourth quarter 2022. Pandox has all short-term credit facilities with Nordic relationship banks. Pandox's refinancing transactions during the quarter amounted to the equivalent of around MSEK 2,313.
The average fixed rate period was 3.3 (2.8) years and the average interest rate, corresponding to the interest rate level at the end of the period, was 2.5 (2.6) percent, including effects from interest-rate derivatives, but excluding accrued arrangement fees. The average repayment period was 2.2 (2.8) years. The loans are secured by a combination of mortgage collateral and pledged shares.

| Sum | 34,735 |
To reduce the currency exposure in foreign investment Pandox's aim is to finance the applicable portion of the investment in local currency. Equity is normally not hedged as Pandox's strategy is to have a long investment perspective. Currency exposures are largely in form of currency translation effects.

In order to manage interest rate risk and increase the predictability of Pandox's earnings, interest rate derivatives are used, mainly in the form of interest rate swaps. At the end of the period interest rate derivatives amounted to MSEK 27,343 gross and MSEK 22,318 net, which is also the portion of Pandox's loan portfolio for which interest rates are hedged. Approximately 64 percent net of Pandox's loan portfolio was thereby hedged against interest rate movements for periods longer than one year.

The market value of the derivatives portfolio is measured on each closing date, with the change in value recognised in profit or loss. Upon maturing, the market value of a derivative contract is dissolved entirely and the change in value over time thus does not affect equity.
At the end of the period, the net market value of Pandox's financial derivatives amounted to MSEK -58 (-798).
At the end of the period, the deferred tax assets amounted to MSEK 249 (631). These represent mainly the book value of tax loss carry forwards which the Company expects to be able to use in upcoming fiscal years, and temporary measurement differences for interest rate derivatives.
Deferred tax liabilities amounted to MSEK 4,281 (4,307) and relate mainly to temporary differences between fair value and the taxable value of Investment Properties, as well as temporary differences between the book value and the taxable value of Operating Properties.

Due to Covid-19 the tenant at Park Centraal Amsterdam has filed a lawsuit against a Pandox subsidiary demanding certain temporary adjustments in existing leases, mainly with respect to minimum rent levels. Court proceedings are ongoing and, although Pandox has lost in the court of first instance, the outcome is not expected to have a material effect on the Group's earnings. Pandox has appealed the decision.
A Pandox subsidiary has filed a lawsuit against Köln Bonn Airport which has not granted an extension of a Hereditary Building Right ("HBR") for the 177-room Leonardo Hotel Köln Bonn Airport property. The case is ongoing and Pandox believes that there is a good possibility of a favourable decision, or compensation, for the company. No rental income was recognised in 2021.
As Pandox previously communicated, it received a decision from the Swedish Tax Agency on the Group's internal pricing. Pandox has appealed the decision with the Supreme Administrative Court. Pandox is maintaining its position that the Company has followed the law. Pandox's transfer pricing does not differ from industry practice. The Swedish Tax Agency is, however, of the opinion that no allocation of profits is to be made to the country where the properties are located and operations are conducted, but to the country of the parent company, i.e. Sweden. Pandox is maintaining that the Group's companies are following and have followed applicable laws on transfer pricing and taxation in the countries where the Group's companies are operating. Pandox has been granted a tax payment extension by the Swedish Tax Agency due to uncertainty about the outcome of the case. Pandox believes that there is a good possibility of a favourable decision in a higher court. An oral hearing was held 26 January in the Supreme Administrative Court and the ruling is expected to be announced shortly.
Dorint Parkhotel Bad Neuenahr has been closed since July due to extensive damage caused by flooding. The hotel property was full insured for property damage and consequential loss insurance covers rental income while the property is being restored.
The previous tenant of Maritim Hotel Nürnberg is claiming the right to a rent reduction for 2020–2021. Court proceedings are ongoing.
At the end of the period, Pandox had the equivalent of 675 (634) fulltime employees, based on number of worked hours translated to fulltime employees. Of the total number of employees, 626 (587) are employed in the Operator Activities segment and 49 (47) in the Property Management segment and in central administration.
Pandox's green investment programme of MEUR 8, with an expected return of approximately 20 percent, remains in place within the planned timeframe (2023). The purpose is to reduce climate impact through energy and water reducing projects and technology installations. The goal is to reduce energy, gas and water use by 35 percent, 25 percent, and 20 percent respectively, and to reduce CO2 emissions by 20 percent. The return is in parity with expectations, adjusted for Covid-19 effects.
Administration for activities within Pandox's property owning companies is provided by staff employed by the Parent Company, Pandox AB (publ). Pandox's subsidiaries are invoiced for these services. Amounts invoiced during the January–December 2021 period totalled MSEK 146 (150), and profit for the period amounted to MSEK 888 (-486).
At the end of the period the Parent Company's equity amounted to
MSEK 9,490 (8,603) and the external interest-bearing debt was MSEK 8,252 (4,804), of which MSEK 1,476 (3,294) was in the form of long-term debt.
The Parent Company carries out transactions with subsidiaries in the Group. Such transactions mainly entail allocation of centrally incurred administration cost and interest relating to receivables and liabilities. All related party transactions are entered into on market terms.
Eiendomsspar AS owns 5.1 percent of 22 hotel properties in Germany and 9.9 percent of another hotel property in Germany. The acquisitions were made by Pandox in 2015, 2016 and 2019. Pandox has a management agreement regarding Pelican Bay Lucaya Resort in the Bahamas owned by affiliates of Helene Sundt AS and CGS Holding AS. During January–December 2021, revenue from Pelican Bay Lucaya amounted to MSEK 0.6 (0.5).
Pandox seeks to achieve the lowest possible financing cost while simultaneously limiting the Company's interest rate, currency and liquidity risks. Pandox's approach is that increased financing cost resulting from moderate changes in interest rates is often compensated for by higher operating income due to increased economic activity. Also, Pandox has a loan portfolio with staggered maturities and fixed interest periods where the Company enters into interest rate swaps to hedge interest rate levels for a certain portion of the debt portfolio.
A significant amount of Pandox's operations are in countries outside Sweden and the Company is therefore exposed to exchange rate fluctuations. Pandox reduces currency exposure in foreign investments primarily by taking out loans in local currencies. In general, foreign operations report both income and costs in the local currency, which limits currency exposure in current flows.
Pandox aims to have a diversified loan portfolio in terms of the number of lenders, exposure to individual lenders, and maturities in order to manage liquidity risk.
Pandox's financial risks and risk management are described on pages 133–136 of the 2020 Annual Report.
Pandox defines risk as a factor of uncertainty that may affect the Company's ability to fulfil its objectives. It is therefore of utmost importance that Pandox is able to identify and assess these factors of uncertainty.
Pandox's strategy is to invest in hotel properties with revenue-based leases with the best hotel operators, and also to be able to operate hotels itself when necessary. Based on this strategy, Pandox has classified risk in five categories: strategy risk, operational risk, financial risk, external risk and sustainability risk.
Pandox's risk management work is described on pages 84–89 in the section "Risk and risk management" in the 2020 Annual Report. Pandox is of the opinion that the Covid-19 pandemic is transitional in nature and will have a limited effect on the long-term valuation yield requirements. See also pages 3–4 and the section "Valuation of hotel properties" for more information.
Considering the extraordinary situation created by Covid-19 it cannot be ruled out that a situation might arise where, for example, commitments and covenants in the Company's credit agreements are not met. In such cases there are various actions that can be taken if needed to remedy any deviations, such as payment of interest into an escrow account, adjustment of covenants, covenant holidays or certain repayments, internal loans or increased equity in subsidiaries. Besides the effects of Covid-19 described above and on page 3–4, there have been no significant changes to Pandox's risk assessment after the publication of the 2020 Annual Report.
The hotel industry is seasonal in nature. The periods during which the Company's properties experience higher revenues vary from property to property, depending principally upon location and the customer base served. Since most of the customers that stay at Pandox owned or operated hotels are business travellers, the Company's total revenues have historically been greater particularly in the second quarter. The timing of holidays and major events can also impact the Company's quarterly results.
This report contains forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual developments may differ materially from the expectations expressed, due to various factors, many of which are beyond the control of Pandox.

Pandox applies the European Securities and Market Authority's (ESMA) guidelines for Alternative Performance Measurements. The guidelines aim at making alternative Performance Measurements in financial reports more understandable, trustworthy and comparable and thereby enhance their usability. According to these guidelines, an Alternative Performance Measurement is a financial key ratio of past or future earnings development, financial position, financial result or cash flows which are not defined or mentioned in current legislation for financial reporting; IFRS and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Reconciliations of Alternative Performance Measurements are available on pages 18-20.
At the end of the period, the total number of shares before and after dilution amounted to 75,000,000 A shares and 108,849,999 B shares. For the fourth quarter 2021 the weighted number of shares before and after dilution amounted to 75,000,000 A shares and 108,849,999 B shares.

A number of the financial descriptions and measures in this interim report provide information about development and status of financial and per share measurements that are not defined in accordance with the IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards). Adjoining alternative financial measurements provides useful supplementary information to investors and management, as they facilitate evaluation of company performance. Since not all companies calculate financial measurements in the same manner, these are not always comparable to measurements used by other companies. Hence, these financial measures should not be seen as a substitute for measures defined according to the IFRS. Unless otherwise stated, the tables on pages 18 –20 presents measures, along with their reconciliation, which are not defined according to the IFRS. The definitions of these measures appear on page 28 .
Pandox owns, manages and develops hotel properties and operates hotels. The level of risk -taking is expressed in a loan -to value ratio net of between 45 and 60 percent, depending on market development and the opportunities that exist. In addition to the loan -to -value ratio, interest cover ratio, average cost of debt and interest -bearing net debt are other relevant measurements of Pandox's financial risk.
Pandox's overall goal is to increase cash flow and property value and thereby enable Pandox to have the resources for investments to support the Group's continued expansion. Since Pandox both owns and operates hotel properties, multiple indicators are needed to measure the Company's performance in relation to goals in this regard. Growth in cash earnings is Pandox's primary focus and this is also the basis for the dividend paid annually to the shareholders, i.e. 30 –50 percent of cash earnings with an average payout ratio of approximately 40 percent over time. Measuring net operating income creates transparency and comparability between the Company's two operating segments and with other property companies. EBITDA measures Pandox's total operational profitability in a uniform way. 123
Net asset value (EPRA NRV) is the collective capital Pandox manages on behalf of its shareholders. Pandox measures long -term net asset value based on the balance sheet adjusted for items that will not yield any payments in the near future, such as derivatives and deferred tax liabilities. The market value of Operating Properties is included in the calculation. See also page 28 .
Net asset value is the aggregate capital the Company manages on behalf of its shareholders. Net asset value can be calculated in various ways, primarily affected by the time horizon and the portfolio's turnover. In general, Pandox has an industrial and long-term investment horizon.
From 31 December 2020 Pandox recognises the performance measures EPRA NRV (net reinstatement value), EPRA NTA (net tangible assets) and EPRA NDV (net disposal value). See page 28 for definitions.
EPRA NRV is the long-term net asset value and is based on the balance sheet adjusted for items where there will be no payments made in the near future, such as goodwill, financial derivatives, deferred tax liability and surplus value of Operating Properties (see page 3 and 9 for more information). EPRA NTA is the same as long-term net asset value with the difference that goodwill not attributable to deferred tax is to be added back and that deferred tax can be assigned a market value taking into account how the entity has carried out real estate transactions in recent years. As Pandox has no goodwill, has a long-term investment horizon, and does not report estimated actual deferred tax, the value of NRV and NTA in Pandox's case is the same. EPRA NDV is net asset value according to equity in the balance sheet adjusted for goodwill (Pandox has no goodwill) and surplus value of Operating Properties.

Pandox AB follows the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and interpretations (IFRIC), as adopted by the EU. This interim report has been prepared according to IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.
The interim report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with Chapter 9 Interim Reports of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The Parent Company applies the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR2 Accounting principles for legal entities. Under RFR2 the parent company of a legal entity applies all EU approved IFRS principles and interpretations within the framework defined by the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and taking into consideration the connection between accounting and taxation.
The interim financial statements are included on pages 1–26 and pages 27–29 are thus an integrated part of this financial report.
The accounting principles applied are consistent with those described in Pandox's 2020 Annual Report.
Pandox's operating segments consist of the Property Management and Operator Activities business streams. The Property Management segment owns, improves and manages hotel properties and provides external customers with premises for hotel operations, as well as other types of premises adjacent to hotel properties. The Operator Activities segment owns hotel properties and operates hotels in such owned properties. The Operator Activities segment also includes one hotel property under an asset management agreement. Non-allocated items are any items that are not attributable to a specific segment or are common to both segments, and financial cost for right-of-use assets according to IFRS 16. The segments have been established based on the reporting that takes place internally to executive management on financial outcomes and position. Segment reporting applies the same accounting principles as those used in the annual report in general, and the amounts reported for the segments are the same as those for the Group. Scandic Hotels Group and Fattal Hotels Group are tenants who account for more than 10 percent of revenues each.
For the fourth quarter and full-year 2021, revenue-based rent in Property Management amounted to MSEK 144 and MSEK 373 respectively.

Pandox is a leading owner of hotel properties in Northern Europe with a focus on sizeable hotels in key leisure and corporate destinations. Pandox's hotel property portfolio comprises 157 hotels with approximately 35,500 hotel rooms in 15 countries. Pandox's business is organised into Property Management, which comprises hotel properties leased on a long-term basis to market leading hotel operators, and Operator Activities, which comprises hotel operations executed by Pandox in its owner-occupied hotel properties. Pandox was founded in 1995 and the company's B shares are listed on Nasdaq Stockholm.
Pandox's vision is to be a world-leading hotel property company. Pandox's business concept is to own hotel properties and lease them to strong hotel operators under long-term revenue-based lease agreements. Pandox's ability to act throughout the complete hotel value-chain both reduces risk and creates business opportunities.
Pandox's strategy and business model is founded on:
-
- Focus on hotel properties
-
- Large hotel properties in strategic locations
-
- Long-term revenue-based lease agreements with the best hotel operators
-
- Sustainability with business focus
-
- Geographical diversification which limits fluctuations
-
- Own operations reduce risk
Loan-to-value ratio
Pandox's target is a loan-to-value ratio of 45–60 percent, depending on the market environment and opportunities that exist. The Company defines loan-to-value ratio as interest-bearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents as a percentage of the market value of the properties at the end of the period.
Dividend policy
Pandox's target is a dividend pay-out ratio of 30–50 percent of cash earnings, with an average pay-out ratio over time of around 40 percent. Future dividends and the size of any such dividends depend on Pandox's future performance, financial position, cash flows, working capital requirements, investment plans and other factors.
Pandox has two business segments. One is Property Management in which Pandox owns and leases out hotel properties to external operators under long-term revenue-based lease agreements. The other is Operator Activities in which Pandox owns hotel properties and operates hotels under external brands or its own brands.
