Hotel demand remained stable and positive in the first quarter, taking into account the hotel market's past seasonal patterns where the first quarter is normally the weakest one of the year.
Pandox's growth was good, and our cash flow was strong. For comparable units, net sales and total net operating income increased by 47 and 41 percent respectively, compared with the corresponding quarter the previous year – a quarter that was impacted by pandemic restrictions. Growth was particularly strong in Operator Activities.
Although the first quarter had a cautious start, demand increased gradually and the hotel market is still perceived as robust. Development was particularly strong considering the significant new capacity which, in the aftermath of the pandemic, has been added in many markets over the past few years, such as in Copenhagen and Helsinki.
During the quarter we acquired The Queens Hotel Leeds within the Operator Activities segment and Best Western Hotel Fridhemsplan within Property Management. Both of these acquisitions had attractive prices and good yield levels. I'm particularly glad that we have made another acquisition in Stockholm – especially because we see great potential in the hotel property at Fridhemsplan. We have a long and successful history of acquiring underperforming hotel properties and increasing their profitability and value in various ways. Our focus and our speciality is identifying valuable strength factors, particularly in the current market.
For various reasons, transaction activity in the hotel property market is low and our acquisition pace is currently below what we would like it to be. The situation is better in terms of investment in the existing portfolio and we believe there is good potential to continue to add profitable projects in cooperation with our tenants.
Pandox's financial position improved further during the first quarter. The loan-to-value ratio fell to 46.2 percent. Adjusted for distributed dividends in April, our loan-to-value ratio was 46.8 percent. We only have bank financing where the security is in the form of our properties, and the loans are in local currency. During the quarter we secured refinancing equivalent to around MSEK 5,200 in the form of loans with longer terms to maturity. As is our normal procedure, we have a close working relationship with our banks and lenders about refinancing maturing loans.
Our variable revenue business model provides effective protection against both inflation and higher financing costs. This, combined with a company that is driven to succeed and is financially strong, allows us to both actively defend our positions and proactively utilise the business opportunities that are created.
Up to now, in April, both hotel demand and average price development have been good in most markets. There is still recovery potential in business and international travel. At the same time we are seeing stronger trade fair and exhibition calendars than in 2022 in important markets. Our cautiously optimistic view of the hotel markets in 2023 still holds.


Pandox's vision is to be a worldleading 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:
-
- Focus on hotel properties
-
- Large hotel properties in strategic locations 3. Long-term revenue-based lease agreements
- with the best hotel operators and shared investments
-
- Sustainability with a business focus 5. Geographical diversification to limit fluctuations
-
- 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-March 2023 to investors, analysts and the media in a conference call webcast on 26 April at 08:30 CEST. As a service to Pandox's stakeholders there will also be an external update on the hotel market.

In Europe, the world's largest travel destination, there were 585 million international arrivals in 2022. This was around 80 percent of the level before the outbreak of the coronavirus (UNWTO). The improvement was driven by strong intra-European travel and a very intense summer season driven by pent-up travel demand.
International travel is expected to continue to increase in 2023, supported by more active Chinese travel in the second half of the year as passport and visa processing improves and the air travel infrastructure to Europe is re-established. A strong dollar and increased US demand are also expected to drive increased transatlantic travel to Europe. Despite inflation and increasing living costs, there are still good indications that experiences and travel will be prioritised over other consumption. Any downside risks for individual travellers' travel consumption are expected to be offset by business and conference demand, as well as international travel that has not yet fully recovered to pre-pandemic levels.
The first quarter of 2023 largely followed the same pattern as the preceding quarters, with occupancy slightly below and average prices clearly above the 2019 levels.
- Occupancy in Europe** was 60 percent compared with 46 percent in the corresponding period the previous year (just over 63 percent in 2019).
- The average price was EUR 120, which is equivalent to 19 percent more than 2022 and 21 percent more than the 2019 level.
- Altogether RevPAR in Europe amounted to EUR 72, an increase of 53 percent on the previous year (+15 percent compared with 2019).
- The results of eased restrictions on travel from China have still not materialised in terms of effect on hotel demand.
After a cautious start, Pandox's markets developed well in the first quarter, albeit with certain differences. These are explained by different demand mixes and how quickly pandemic restrictions were removed in
various countries in the comparison quarter. Germany and Austria, where restrictions were removed last, saw the strongest growth in the quarter. In general and in comparison with 2019, occupancy was lower, while average prices were significantly higher.
- Occupancy in the Nordics* was 56 percent, compared with 44 percent in the corresponding period the previous year (2019: 61 percent).
- The average price and RevPAR for the Nordics as a whole exceeded the 2019 level by around 13 percent and 4 percent respectively.
- Compared with 2019, regional Nordic markets continued to perform better than the four capital cities.
- Norway had the strongest average price development, with 26 percent compared with 2019.
- Helsinki remained the most challenging sub-market due to a relatively strong dependence on long-haul flights from Asia and demand from Russia. At the same time, this market has seen a relatively large addition of new hotels in recent years.
- The good trend in Germany continued, with RevPAR at EUR 58 compared with EUR 29 for the corresponding period the previous year. RevPAR in Germany was 9 percent lower than in 2019.
- The German conference, trade fair and congress-related demand had a strong comeback, which is particularly beneficial for cities such as Dusseldorf, Hannover and Frankfurt.
- Ireland and UK regional (outside London) were both strong compared with 2022 and 2019. RevPAR for Ireland and UK Regional was 34 percent and 21 percent respectively above the 2019 level, driven mainly by average price.
- Brussels an international hotel market saw good RevPAR growth. International meetings, delegations and conferences are back at good levels. Occupancy is 11 percent lower and average prices 16 percent higher than in 2019, making RevPAR 3 percent higher than 2019.

The Group's net sales amounted to MSEK 1,353 (876), an increase of 54 percent where restrictions related to the pandemic affected the comparable quarter negatively. Hotel demand developed in line with the historical seasonal pattern where the first quarter normally is the weakest of the year. For comparable units, net sales increased by 47 percent, adjusted for currency effects.
Revenue from Property Management amounted to MSEK 780 (634), an increase of 23 percent. The increase in revenue is explained by higher revenue-based rents, which amounted to MSEK 208 (98). For comparable units, revenue increased by 21 percent, adjusted for currency effects.
Revenue from Operator Activities amounted to MSEK 573 (242), an increase of 137 percent. For comparable units, revenue increased by 113 percent and RevPAR by 112 percent, adjusted for currency effects.
Total net operating income amounted to MSEK 714 (494), an increase of 45 percent. For comparable units, total net operating income increased by 41 percent, adjusted for currency effects.
Net operating income from Property Management amounted to MSEK 662 (543), an increase of 22 percent. For comparable units, net operating income increased by 21 percent, adjusted for currency effects.
Net operating income from Operator Activities amounted to MSEK 52 (-49). The comparison quarter includes government grants received of MSEK 17.
Central administration costs amounted to MSEK -45 (-32).
Depreciation in Operator Activities amounted to MSEK -67 (-61). Depreciation of MSEK -6 (-5) is included in administration costs.
Financial expense amounted to MSEK -320 (-232), of which MSEK -22 (-18) consists of depreciation of capitalised loan arrangement fees. The increase is mainly explained by higher base interest rates and negative currency effects, and only to a limited extent by increased credit margins.
Financial income amounted to MSEK 10 (2). Financial expense associated with right-of-use assets amounted to MSEK -26 (-23).
Unrealised changes in the value of properties amounted to MSEK -410 (279), which is mainly explained by increased yield requirements.
Realised changes in value of properties amounted to MSEK 198 (–), of which two-thirds is capital gain from divestment of InterContinental Montreal, and the remaining part is the net of disposal and insurance settlement for Dorint Parkhotel Bad Neuenahr.
Unrealised changes in the value of derivatives amounted to MSEK -344 (930).
Current tax amounted to MSEK -65 (-33). The increase in current tax is mainly explained by higher profit before tax in Sweden, where Pandox does not have any tax loss carryforwards from previous years.
Deferred tax amounted to MSEK 152 (-280), explained by changes in value of derivatives and Investment Properties. See also Note 3 on page 19.
Profit for the period amounted to MSEK -203 (1,044) and profit for the period attributable to the Parent Company's shareholders amounted to MSEK -216 (1,042), which is equivalent to SEK -1.17 (5.67) per share.
Cash earnings amounted to MSEK 259 (178).
On 31 March 2023 cash and cash equivalents and unutilised credit facilities amounted to MSEK 3,843, compared with MSEK 4,489 as of 31 December 2022. Pandox's refinancing transactions during the first quarter amounted to the equivalent of MSEK 5,151.

Rental income and other property revenue amounted to MSEK 780 (634), an increase of 23 percent. For comparable units, revenue increased by 21 percent, adjusted for currency effects.
Revenue-based rent amounted to MSEK 208 (98). Variable rental income was generated within 55 (20) leases at minimum levels, which is normal taking into account seasonal effects.
Contractual guaranteed minimum rent plus fixed rent amount to around MSEK 2,000 on an annual basis.
Occupancy at comparable hotels amounted to around 56 (40) percent during the quarter.
Most sub-segments and markets had stable positive growth, among them UK Regional, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and the regional market in Finland. Helsinki continued to perform at a lower level than the portfolio as a whole, although a certain improvement was noted in the quarter.
In Germany, although the quarter began with some caution, demand gradually increased. There was a significant difference between the strongest and the weakest destinations, with domestic demand mainly benefitting cities such as Hamburg, Karlsruhe, Mönchengladbach and Heidelberg. Larger industrial cities such as Wolfsburg did not perform as well, in relative terms.
Net operating income amounted to MSEK 662 (543), an increase of 22 percent.
For comparable units, net operating income increased by 21 percent, adjusted for currency effects.

Revenue from Operator Activities amounted to MSEK 573 (242), an increase of 137 percent. For comparable units, revenue and RevPAR increased by 113 and 112 percent respectively, adjusted for currency effects. Hotel demand was stable in total in the quarter. The revenue increase was, however, limited by a slightly more cautious start of the period.
Occupancy at comparable hotels amounted to around 52 (31) percent and average price development remained good.
Hotels that performed the best during the quarter were Hotel Hubert (Brussels, Belgium), Hilton Garden Inn London Heathrow Airport (UK) and Novotel Den Haag (Netherlands).
Net operating income amounted to MSEK 52 (-49), equivalent to a net operating margin of around 9 percent, which is mainly explained by seasonal effects and that important demand segments have not recovered in full. The comparison quarter includes government grants in the amount of MSEK 17.
Pandox handed over the InterContinental Montreal on 1 February and took over The Queens Hotel Leeds on 16 February.

Pandox performs internal valuation of its hotel properties each quarter and Investment Properties are recognised at fair value. The property values are based on Pandox's internal valuation. External valuation of the properties is also conducted for comparative and quality purposes (see also Note E in Pandox's 2022 Annual Report).
The value of operating properties is reported for information purposes only and is included in EPRA NRV calculations. The operating properties' carrying amounts recognised in the condensed consolidated statement of financial position are equivalent to cost minus depreciation and any impairment losses and amounted to MSEK 8,817 (8,450) at the end of the period.
In the first quarter Best Western Hotel Fridhemsplan and The Queens Hotel Leeds were acquired in the Investment Properties and Operating Properties respectively, and InterContinental Montreal was divested in Operating Properties. Moreover, the insurance matter regarding Dorint Parkhotel Bad Neuenahr in Investment Properties was settled, and the property was written down to land value. The received insurance compensation mitigates the effect on earnings from the write-down (disposals below).
At the end of the period, Pandox's property portfolio had a market value of MSEK 69,695 (69,231), of which
Investment Properties accounted for MSEK 57,719 (57,563) and Operating Properties for MSEK 11,976 (11,669). Over the past 12 months, external valuations were performed for around 94 percent of the hotel properties and are in line with the internal valuations, measured in value. External valuations were performed in the first quarter for around 18 percent of Pandox's hotel property portfolio, measured in value.
Unrealised changes in the value of Investment Properties amounted to MSEK -410 (279), explained by an increase in the average yield requirement of 0.04 percentage points. Unrealised changes in the value of Operating Properties amounted to MSEK -10 (130) (reported for disclosure purposes only). Here the average yield requirement increased by 0.09 percentage points, which largely was offset by increased cash flows.

The cost of maintenance in the first quarter of 2023 was MSEK 15 (22).
At the end of the period, approved investments for ongoing and future projects amounted to around MSEK 2,000 (1,250), of which around MSEK 900 is for projects that are expected to be completed in 2023.



Science-based targets
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. Pandox "slot time" to have the targets validated by the SBTi is 12 June 2023.
Focus areas
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:
-
- Environment and climate
-
- Responsible and fair business
-
- Guest satisfaction and security
-
- Attractive and equal workplace
-
- 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.
At the end of the period the loan-to-value net was 46.2 (46.7) percent. Equity attributable to the Parent Company's shareholders amounted to MSEK 30,681 (30,731). EPRA NRV amounted to
MSEK 37,676 (37,694), equivalent to SEK 204.93 (205.03) per share. Cash and cash equivalents plus unutilised credit facilities amounted to MSEK 3,843 (4,489) and there are several unpledged properties with a value of approximately MSEK 2,500. In addition, there are additional unutilised credit facilities that, at any given time, fully cover the issued volume under the Pandox commercial paper programme. Commercial papers are used to optimize Pandox's financial costs via interest rate arbitrage.
All Pandox debt financing is with banks, with the exception of AMF Tjänstepension AB, and commercial papers. At the end of the period the loan portfolio amounted to MSEK 34,191 (33,964), excluding loan arrangement fees. Unutilised credit facilities amounted to MSEK 1,840 (2,859) and the volume issued under the commercial paper programme amounted to MSEK 731 (699), which corresponds to approximately 2 percent of the total loan portfolio.
Short-term credit facilities maturing in less than 12 months amount to MSEK 11,021, of which approximately MSEK 3,500 matures in the second quarter 2023 and approximately MSEK 6,700 in the fourth quarter 2023. We have a dialogue with our lenders and the plan is to finalise refinancing well in advance of maturity. Pandox's refinancing transactions during the first quarter amounted to a total of around MSEK 5,151.
The average fixed rate period was 2.7 (2.7) years and the average interest rate, corresponding to the interest rate level at the end of the period, was 3.9 (3.2) percent, including effects from interest-rate derivatives, but excluding accrued arrangement fees. The average repayment period was 2.1 (1.7) years. The loans are secured by a combination of mortgage collateral and pledged shares.

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.

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 29,019 gross and MSEK 18,586 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 1,917 (2,261).

In January 2023, Pandox received insurance compensation for Dorint Parkhotel Bad Neuenahr, the property that was affected by flooding in 2021. The compensation covers Pandox's costs and the damage caused by the flood, and the property has been written down to land value.
No other 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 1,284 (850) fulltime employees, based on number of worked hours translated to fulltime employees. Of the total number of employees, 1,234 (804) are employed in the Operator Activities segment and 50 (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–March 2023, revenue from Pelican Bay Lucaya amounted to MSEK 0.0 (0.1).
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 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 20 22.
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.

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 1–24 and page 1–12 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-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 first quarter 2023 revenue-based rent in Property Management amounted to MSEK 208 (98).

Deferred tax
At the end of the period, deferred tax assets amounted to MSEK 268 (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 5,359 (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 20–22 presents measures, along with their reconciliation, which are not defined according to the IFRS. The definitions of these measures appear on page 2 4 .
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 4 .
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.
