Rental income development & market rent potential

  • *Consolidation of Inkognitogaten 33A (Inkognito Park) in Q3-22, with rental income from Q4-22. Divestment of Vipeveien 51 in Q3-22.
  • ** Acquisition of Lørenveien 73 (Parallell) in Q4-22, conditional upon financing, is not included until completion is final. Divestment of Versvikveien 6B and Storgata 106 in Q4-22 included.
  • MNOK The graph shows the estimated development in contractual rental income and market rent potential on vacant space
    • The figures are based on owned properties, including adjustments from signed new, renewed and terminated contracts, as well as acquisitions and divestments which will be completed within the next 18 months
    • Future CPI adjustments are not include

Financial development

  • Rental income of NOK 33.6 million in Q2-22 (NOK 35.3 when including owner-occupied property) compared with NOK 29.9 million in Q2-21. The 12 per cent growth (18 per cent including owner-occupied property) is related to changes in the property portfolio and CPI adjustment
  • Other operating revenue of NOK 17.3 million in Q2-22, compared with NOK 2.9 million in Q2-21. This is mainly related to the consolidation of Evolve
  • Negative unrealised change in fair value of investment properties of NOK 81.3 million (including effect from owner-occupied property) is mainly related to Kjelleveien 21 and project Slottsfjell Park
  • Positive change in unrealised fair value of financial derivates of NOK 14.4 million is related to a positive contribution of NOK 12.3 million from interest rate swaps. Our investment in Inkognitogaten 33 and the ongoing development project, gave a positive contribution of NOK 2.1 million (through value changes of forward contract, put option and shares)
  • Share of profit (loss) from associates and joint ventures affected Net financials with a negative contribution of NOK -1.0 million from the investment in Orbit Technology

Outlook

Key drivers in the general marketplace that could influence the Groups business going forward, hence are ongoing considerations for the Group:

  • Significant increase in commodity prices (including energy prices)
  • Increasing construction costs
  • Increasing interest rates
  • Inflation
  • Expected limited supply of new office spaces in the short to medium term

Key drivers in the marketplace are assessed similar to Q1 2022, although the general focus on energy prices, inflation and increasing interest rates have been at the center of attention. Key policy rates are on the rise in Europe and United States and are expected to increase further the coming quarters. This may impact funding options and availability going forward.

Being a real estate developer with an accompanying management portfolio the sentiment in the marketplace is monitored continuously. Increasing interest rates and construction costs is an ongoing concern, with increase in cost of financing potentially contributing to yield expansion. Higher construction cost is expected to limit new supply of office premises, on top of a slim pipeline from projects during the pandemic.

However, increasing demand for office spaces and expected strong CPI – coupled with increasing constructions costs - could contribute to an upward pressure on rental income that may partially counter the effect of potential higher yields. Post pandemic has given additional fuel to the demand for hybrid work solutions, a trend that may be reinforced by current uncertainty. This is a positive for flexible office provider Evolve.

The Group is currently experiencing uncertainty in the financial markets and corresponding funding possibilities, with expected challenging liquidity in coming quarters.

The Group is working on several solutions to improve and strengthen the liquidity in the short and longer term, and sale of properties is considered likely. Share issue and/ or alternative debt financing are to be expected going forward.

Completion of the acquisition of Lørenveien Næring AS (Parallell) in Q4 2022 is conditional upon financing, and will require liquidity supply from transactions and/ or other sources of capital.

To meet the office users' changed behavior and needs after Covid-19, Recreate ASA had launched a hybrid solution

  • Combining ordinary office rental and co-working provides both flexibility and predictability
  • Tenants get access to a network of office spaces, meeting rooms and other facilities
  • Corporate agreements for existing tenants
  • Utilizes the capacity of the buildings in a better way

The hybrid solution is a combination of an ordinary, permanent lease and a membership in Evolve, with access to their 23 locations with flexible workplaces.

The benefits are many: The employer keeps their environment, meeting points and predictability that comes with a traditional office; the employees get flexibility to work efficiently where they want, and reduced commuting time. In addition, users get access to video conferencing and beautiful meeting rooms, all closer to where people live.

For Recreate, this is a unique tool and competitive advantage, that adapts to the "new normal" in working life, post-Covid. Many companies can manage with fewer fixed square meters, when a possible shortage of space in "peak hours" can be covered through access to available capacity in Evolve.

Tenants signed on the hybrid solution:
