The second quarter was strong and saw high demand in the hotel market. The majority of our submarkets improved compared with the corresponding quarter the previous year. Germany saw the strongest relative improvement, explained by an active trade fair calendar and increased business travel. Brussels also developed well with a clear increase in conference demand and a good level for leisure travel. As before, the UK and the Nordics were stable at a high level and had strong average price development. Weak exchange rates in several important markets helped to increase international demand, above all in the UK based on increased arrivals from the USA.

We have now entered into the third quarter which is dominated by leisure demand. The ensuing fourth quarter is more balanced with contributions from all demand segments.

Good hotel demand resulted in a higher total net operating income and EBITDA. Adjusted for pandemic-related government grants of MSEK 156, for the years 2020–2021, which we received in the second quarter of 2022, cash earnings increased by approximately four percent in the quarter. This shows that our model with variable rent is working and that we can create value also in a higher interest-rate environment. The grants were finally settled in the third quarter of 2022 and will therefore affect comparisons also in the third quarter of 2023.

For comparable units, net sales and total net operating income increased by a solid 18 and 16 percent in the second quarter. Higher demand in Germany positively affected Property Management and, combined with a more active hotel market in Brussels, contributed to both higher earnings and profitability in Operator Activities. Adjusted for certain renovation costs the net operating margin in Property Management was approximately 88 percent in the second quarter. At the same time, the net operating margin in Operator Activities rose to approximately 26 percent, which is a more normal level given the season and current portfolio composition.

The hotel property portfolio had high business momentum. At the beginning of the third quarter we signed a lease with Scandic to open a new Scandic Go at Fridhemsplan in Stockholm in 2024. The lease, which is revenue-based with a guaranteed minimum rent level, is for the property we acquired in February 2023 and is a good example of our value creation through investment and product shift activities. It is also inspiring to be able to contribute to Scandic's expansion in the economy segment in Stockholm.

In the first half of the year we refinanced the equivalent of around MSEK 14,146 of our debt portfolio. The percentage of credit facilities maturing within one year has dropped to 15 percent. This demonstrates that our banking partners have a high level of confidence in us and that our refinancing risk is low.

Our interest expense increased somewhat also in the second quarter, mainly due to higher market rates, but our interest rate derivatives compensated for a large portion of this. The effect of higher credit margins is limited and is mainly in the form of a delayed effect from the credit margin increases that took place during the pandemic years and that are now having an impact when we refinance older credit facilities.

Our financial position remains stable with a loan-to-value ratio of 46.7 percent at the end of the second quarter. Our interest coverage ratio, on a rolling 12-month basis, as measured in all credit agreements, was 3.2 times.

The good development in the hotel market reflects an economy with strong legs. Household demand for experiences has been high and people have prioritised travel at any price over other consumption. We believe that what people experienced during the pandemic, when freedom of movement was limited, may be one explanation for this, and that it is still a strong driver. Also, surplus household savings remain high in many of our markets.

We see further potential for increased business travel in the autumn, particularly in Germany where trade fair calendars are now well-filled. The same applies to international travel which still has a way to go to reach 2019 levels. Re-opening in Asia after the Pandemic has been relatively slow and arrivals from countries such as China and Japan into Europe are still at a low level. One explanation, which also applies to international travel in general, is that flight capacity has not yet fully returned to pre-pandemic levels. One positive short-term factor is that weak exchange rates in the UK, Norway and Sweden should stimulate increased international arrivals to these markets.

Pandox's vision is to be a world-leading hotel property company.

The business concept is to own hotel properties and lease them to strong hotel operators under long-term revenue-based leases. Pandox's ability to act throughout the hotel value chain reduces risk and creates business opportunities.

Pandox's strategy and business model is based on:

    1. Focus on hotel properties
    1. Large hotel properties in strategic locations
    1. Long-term revenue-based lease agreements with the best hotel operators and shared investments
    1. Sustainability with a business focus
    1. Geographical diversification to limit fluctuations
    1. Operating our own hotels reduces risk

Loan-to-value ratio

Pandox's target is a loan-to-value ratio of 45–60 percent, depending on the market environment and the opportunities that exist. The Company defines loan-tovalue 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 and working capital requirements.

Pandox will present the interim report January-June 2023 to investors, analysts and the media in a conference call webcast on 14 July at 08:30 CEST. As a service to Pandox's stakeholders there will also be an external update on the hotel market.

Hotel market day 2023 21 November 2023 Year-end report 2023 8 February 2024

Despite a challenging economic environment with higher living costs and interest rates, there was strong growth in travel in the second quarter. The recovery was initially and primarily driven by domestic and intra-European travel, but the contribution of transatlantic travel gradually increased. Europe is always a popular destination for American tourists and even more so when the dollar is strong. Another important driver behind the positive development was that people continued to prioritise leisure travel and hotel nights over other consumption. Any downside risk for individual travellers' travel consumption during the second half of the year is expected to be offset by a sustained improvement in business travel and increased international/Asian travel, which has not yet reached pre-pandemic levels.

The second quarter of 2023 largely followed the same pattern as the first quarter, with occupancy slightly below and average prices significantly above 2019 levels.

  • Occupancy in Europe** amounted to 69 percent in April and 73 percent in May, with the good trend continuing in June, compared with 63 percent in April and 70 percent in May the previous year. (2019: 72 percent and 75 percent respectively).
  • Average price development remained very strong, with an increase of +18 percent in April and +17 percent in May compared with the previous year (2019: +24 and +28 percent respectively).
  • Altogether RevPAR in Europe amounted to EUR 94 in April and EUR 108 in May, an increase of 29 and 21 percent respectively compared with the previous year (2019: +23 and +28 percent respectively).
  • There was significantly higher activity in international meetings, delegations and conferences – especially in Germany.
  • After pandemic restrictions were removed, Asian travel has so far only materialised to a limited extent in European hotel demand.

Despite a relatively strong comparative quarter in 2022, Pandox's markets developed well in the second quarter. As in the past, there were certain differences between countries and markets, explained by different demand mixes and how quickly pandemic restrictions were removed. Germany and Austria, where restrictions were removed last, were the countries with the strongest growth in the quarter.

  • In the Nordics*, occupancy was 65 percent, which was slightly lower than the corresponding period the previous year when pent-up domestic travel drove higher occupancy figures (2019: 68 percent).
  • The average price for the Nordics* as a whole exceeded both the levels of 2019 and the previous year by 19 and 9 percent respectively.
  • Compared with 2019, regional Nordic markets continued to perform better than the four capital cities. However, development was very positive for the capital cities which, as a whole during the quarter and for the first time since the pandemic, exceeded the RevPAR level of the corresponding period in 2019.
  • Helsinki* remained the most challenging submarket due to a relatively strong dependence on long-haul flights from Asia and demand from Russia. Average prices were back at 2019 levels, while occupancy was 21 percent lower. The market has also seen a relatively significant addition of new hotels over the past few years.
  • Norway* had the strongest average price increase, with 32 percent compared with 2019. Oslo* was exceptionally strong with an average price increase of 35 percent.
  • The improved trade fair and congress related demand noted in Germany** at the end of the first quarter further accelerated in April and May and the trend in June remained good. The good growth was particularly positive in trade fair cities such as Düsseldorf, Hannover, Frankfurt and Cologne.
  • Germany** as a whole exceeded 2019 RevPAR levels by 5 percent during the quarter. Development was driven by higher average prices, which were up 14 percent, while occupancy was down by around 8 percent.
  • Ireland** and UK regional** (excl. London) were both strong compared with 2022 and 2019. For the period April–May RevPAR for Ireland and UK Regional was 39 and 28 percent respectively above the 2019 level, driven mainly by higher average prices.
  • Supported by increased international travel, a continued recovery in Brussels** was noted in April and May, with combined RevPAR growth of 16 percent compared with 2019. The good development was driven by improved average prices, although it was notable that occupancy in May was only one percentage point below the 2019 level.

External valuations were performed in the second quarter for around 13 percent of Pandox's hotel property portfolio, measured in value.

The value of Operating Properties is reported for information purposes only and is included in EPRA NRV calculations.

In the period January–June 2023, investments in property, plant and equipment, excluding acquisitions, amounted to MSEK 482 (416), of which MSEK 254 (174) was for Investment Properties and MSEK 228 (241) for Operating Properties. At the end of the period, approved investments for ongoing and future projects amounted to around MSEK 1,800 (1,500), of which around MSEK 650 is for projects that are expected to be completed in the remainder of 2023.

The cost of maintenance in the first quarter of 2023 was MSEK 32 (27).

Pandox submitted a commitment letter to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) on 30 November 2022. On 1 December 2022 Pandox also shared its targets with SBTi. These were produced in consultation with the Swedish Environmental Research Institute (IVL) in order to meet the requirements under the Paris Agreement. Target validation by SBTi is currently ongoing.

Pandox's sustainability work is aimed at promoting sustainable properties and operations and creating new business opportunities. The Company's overall sustainability goal is to offer tenants resource-efficient hotel properties that contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, reduce climate impact and enable good management of climate risks.

Pandox's sustainability strategy is based on the Company's vision and business objectives, its impact on communities in terms of sustainability and climate change, and which issues the stakeholders consider to be important for Pandox to focus on. Current trends and the risks and opportunities identified by the Company are also taken into consideration.

Pandox has defined the most material sustainability topics and divided them up into five focus areas:

    1. Environment and climate
    1. Responsible and fair business
    1. Guest satisfaction and security
    1. Attractive and equal workplace
    1. Inclusive local communities

Pandox's most important contribution to more sustainable growth is through its development of profitable green properties. The goal is to create resource-efficient properties and operations that reduce Pandox's environmental and climate footprint, but that can also handle climate change impacts in the form of torrential rain and a warmer climate.

Pandox's green investment programme of MEUR 8, with an expected return of around 20 percent, is expected to be completed in 2023. The purpose is to lower climate impact through energy and water reducing projects and technology installations. The target is a reduction in energy, gas and water use of 35 percent, 25 percent and 20 percent respectively, and a 20 percent reduction in CO2 emissions.

  • Per 30 June 2023 the average repayment period was 2.6 (1.7) years, the average interest rate was 4.3 (3.2) percent and the average fixed rate period was 4.3 (2.7) years.
  • In the second quarter, Pandox and Aareal Bank AG have refinanced a hotel portfolio of 14 properties in four countries, with a total credit volume of MEUR 422 with a five-year tenor.
  • During the first half of 2023, Pandox has refinanced debt with a shorter duration of twelve months, corresponding to approximately MSEK 14,146, of which the majority with international banks, with a five-year tenor.
  • Per 30 June 2023, the share of credit facilities with a duration shorter than twelve months amounted to 15 percent, compared with 44 percent at the beginning of the year.
  • All loans maturing in the coming twelve months are financed by Nordic relationship banks and positive dialogues on refinancing are ongoing.
  • In the second quarter, Pandox has entered interest rate derivative contracts corresponding to approximately MSEK 6,434. Per 30 June 2023, approximately 76 percent of Pandox's net interestbearing debt was hedged against interest movements for periods longer than one year.
  • Per 30 June 2023, Pandox's average fixed interest rate on interest-rate derivatives was 1.3 (0.5) percent.

At the end of the period the loan-to-value net was 46.7 (46.7) percent. Equity attributable to the Parent Company's shareholders amounted to MSEK 31,643 (30,731). EPRA NRV amounted to MSEK 38,583 (37,694), equivalent to SEK 209.86 (205.03) per share. Cash and cash equivalents plus unutilised credit facilities amounted to MSEK 3,340 (4,489) and there are several unpledged properties with a value of approximately MSEK 2,500 in total. In addition, there are additional unutilised 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 34,726 (33,964), excluding loan arrangement fees. Unutilised credit facilities, after deduction of commercial paper, amounted to MSEK 2,333 (2,859) and the volume issued under the commercial paper programme amounted to MSEK 543 (699). Commercial paper is only used to optimise Pandox's financial cost via interest rate arbitrage.

Commercial paper aside, all Pandox's debt financing is bank financing only with loans secured by a combination of mortgage collateral and pledged shares. Pandox has a geographically diversified lender base consisting of eleven Nordic and international banks, and AMF Tjänstepension AB.

Per 30 June 2023, the average repayment period was 2.6 (1.7) years and the average interest rate level, including effects from interest-rate derivatives, but excluding accrued arrangement fees, was 4.3 (3.2) percent, which also is a reasonable approximation for the expected level at year end, given unchanged market rates.

The increase in the average interest rates is mainly explained by higher market rates. At the end of the period the interest cover ratio (measured on rolling twelve months) was 3.2 times.

Short-term credit facilities maturing in less than twelve months amount to MSEK 5,593, of which nothing matures in the third quarter 2023 and approximately MSEK 3,175 matures in the fourth quarter 2023.

During the quarter, Pandox and Aareal Bank AG have refinanced the loan, which was entered into 2015 (thereafter extended and increased 2018) with an additional five years. The financed portfolio consists of a total of 14 hotels with number of brands and operators in Germany, Belgium, Austria and the Netherlands in both Pandox's business segments.

Pandox's refinancing transactions during the first half year 2023 amounted to a total of around MSEK 14,146, of which the majority with international banks with a five-year tenor.

To reduce the currency exposure in foreign investment Pandox's aim is to finance 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.

Pandox's bank financing is with variable interest rate. In order to manage interest rate risk and increase the predictability of Pandox's earnings, interest rate derivatives are used. During the second quarter 2023, Pandox has entered into interest rate derivatives corresponding to the equivalent of approximately MSEK 6,434. The derivatives are in four different currencies and maturities of 7 to 10 years, where we have chosen to take advantage of opportunities in the interest rate market while at the same time achieve a more even maturity structure.

At the end of the period, the gross nominal volume of interest rate derivatives amounted to MSEK 35,960 and net nominal volume of interest rate derivatives amounted to MSEK 23,218 net. The gross nominal volume includes forward-starting interest rate swaps. The net volume is the portion of Pandox's loan portfolio for which interest rates are hedged. Approximately 76 percent of Pandox's net debt was thereby hedged against interest rate movements for periods longer than one year and the average fixed rate period was 4.3 (2.7) years.

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 2,248 (2,261).

No significant change has taken place in any disputes and insurance cases commented on previously.

At the end of the period, Pandox had the equivalent of 1,407 (1,097) fulltime employees, based on number of worked hours translated to fulltime employees. Of the total number of employees, 1,358 (1,051) are employed in the Operator Activities segment and 49 (46) in the Property Management segment and in central administration.

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.

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–June 2023, revenue from Pelican Bay Lucaya amounted to MSEK 0.0 (0.3).

Pandox's general approach to business risk has not changed from the detailed account provided in the 2022 Annual Report. There is a risk that higher financing costs will lead to continued higher yield requirements. The effect from households' lower disposable income on hotel demand is uncertain.

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 the composition of demand and the hotel property's location. The second quarter is normally the strongest supported by high demand and willingness to pay from all sub-segments in the hotel market. Since most of the customers that stay at Pandox owned or operated hotels are business travellers, hotel demand is normally the weakest in the first quarter.

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 23–25.

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 2022 the weighted number of shares before and after dilution amounted to 75,000,000 A shares and 108,849,999 B shares.

Figures in brackets are from the corresponding period the previous year for profit/loss items and year-end 2022 for balance sheet items, unless otherwise stated.

The Board of Directors and the CEO confirms that this report provides a fair overview of the Company's business, position and results and describes the significant risks and uncertainties facing the Company and its subsidiaries.

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.

Derivatives are measured at fair value according to Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy under IFRS, based on inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

The carrying amounts of interest-bearing liabilities and other financial instruments constitute a reasonable approximation of their fair values.

The interim financial statements are included on pages 1–27 and page 1–14 is thus an integrated part of this financial report.

The accounting principles applied are consistent with those described in Pandox's Annual Report for 2022.

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-ofuse 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 second quarter and first six months 2023 revenue-based rent in Property Management amounted to MSEK 353 (258) and MSEK 561 (356) respectively.

Deferred tax

At the end of the period, deferred tax assets amounted to MSEK 269 (305). This consists mainly of the carrying amount of tax loss carryforwards which the Company expects to be able to utilise in future financial years.

Deferred tax liabilities amounted to MSEK 5,476 (5,538) and relate mainly to temporary differences between fair value and the taxable value of investment properties, as well as temporary differences between the carrying amount and the taxable value of operating properties, and temporary measurement differences for interest rate derivatives.

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 23–25 presents measures, along with their reconciliation, which are not defined according to the IFRS. The definitions of these measures appear on page 2 7 .

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 2 7 .

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 8 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.

EPRA LTV is a key ratio that shows interest-bearing net debt in relation to the total market value of the property portfolio and other available assets and is used to create comparability between property companies. EPRA LTV is essentially the same as Pandox's previous definition of loan-to-value ratio, with the only difference that net operating receivables and operating liabilities are included in the EPRA measurement. As Pandox has no associated companies or joint ventures, and as there are no minority interests that are material for the Company, no further adjustments are made. Adjustment compared with loan-to-value ratio reported thus far is net of the following short-term operating items: Tax assets, accounts receivable, other receivables, provisions, tax liabilities, accounts payable and other short-term liabilities.
