INTERIM REPORT JANUARY – MARCH 2026
Business concept, targets and strategies
BUSINESS CONCEPT
Sagax's business concept is to invest in commercial properties, mainly in the warehouse and light industrial segment.
OPERATIONAL TARGETS
Sagax's goal is to generate attractive risk-adjusted return for the company's shareholders. This is to be achieved by accomplishing the following operational targets:
- The company's operations are to generate long-term sustainable return and strong cash flows.
- The company is to continue to grow through new investments if attractive risk-adjusted returns are expected to be achieved.
- Cash flow growth in existing operations is to exceed inflation.
FINANCIAL TARGETS
Sagax has the following financial targets from 2026:
- Return on equity of at least 12% per year over the period 2026–2030.
- Growth in profit from property management per Class A and B share of 5–10% per year over the period 2026–2030.
The table below illustrates the outcome in relation to the financial targets:
| Financial targets | 2026
Jan-Mar |
| --- | --- |
| Return on equity of at least 12% per year over the period 2026–2030 | 13% |
| Growth in profit from property management per Class A and B share of 5–10% per year over the period 2026–2030 | –2% |
STRATEGIES
Sagax has a long-term “buy and hold” approach to its investments. Sagax does not engage in property trading activities other than occasional sales of properties that no longer meet the company’s investment criteria.
Sagax’s property development activities are limited and projects are carried out primarily after they have been let.
To achieve the company’s operational and financial targets the company has adopted the following strategies.
Investment strategy
Property acquisitions and investments in the existing portfolio aim to increase cash flow and diversify rental revenue, thereby reducing the company’s operational and financial risks.
Sagax invests in commercial properties, mainly in the warehouse and light industrial segments. This segment combines low rates of new construction with stable occupancy levels, generating stable cash flow and opportunities for long-term value creation. Sagax invests in add-on acquisitions and in existing properties.
In addition to direct investments, Sagax invests in properties via joint ventures and associated companies. This enables the company to invest in markets that Sagax cannot reach successfully on its own. The indirect investments allow Sagax to team-up with specialised management teams and to leverage Sagax’s general industry knowledge to develop attractive investments.
Financing strategy
The financial structure of Sagax is designed with a clear focus on operating cash flow and interest coverage ratio. This is expected to create both good prerequisites for expansion and attractive return on equity.
The chart on page 4 shows that Sagax’s cash flow from operating activities largely corresponds to its profit from property management. The difference is mainly due to joint ventures and associated companies, where dividends instead of profit from property management are recognised as cash flow from operating activities.
Sagax endeavours to have well-balanced fixed interest and loan maturity profiles to secure its operating cash flow. The company’s interest-bearing debt mainly consists of senior unsecured bonds issued in the EUR market. Sagax also finances its operations via issuance of commercial paper in EUR and SEK. Sagax can also raise bank loans in EUR and in SEK when this is deemed to be advantageous. Moody’s Investors Service has rated Sagax Baa2 with a stable outlook.
The company has three classes of shares: Class A, B and D common shares. The Class A and B shares participate fully in the company’s profit or equity. The Class D shares participate in an annual dividend of up to SEK 2.00 per share and carry entitlement to a maximum of SEK 35 per share of equity. The aim with the Class D shares is to attract investor categories that value stable and regular dividends while limiting dilution for the holders of common shares of Class A and B.

INTERIM REPORT JANUARY – MARCH 2026
Asset management strategy
Sagax's long-term perspective applies to the company's asset management strategy. Sagax endeavours to attract reputable and creditworthy tenants. The company prioritises long-term customer relationships even if this entails foregoing higher rental levels. This is regarded as being advantageous since it reduces the risk of vacancies, while leading to lower costs for letting premises and adapting premises to tenant needs.
Sagax invests primarily in regions experiencing stable population growth with diversified business activities. This reduces the risk of a decline in occupancy rates and rent levels. Sagax's largest markets are Stockholm, Helsinki and Paris, which are regarded as offering favourable conditions for long-term growth.
The company mainly enters into net leases. This strategy protects the company's operating cash flow from increased expenses deriving from changes in property taxes, consumption levels or for utility rates.
SUSTAINABILITY ACTIVITIES
The aim of Sagax's sustainability activities is to avoid short-term gains arising at the expense of negative longer-term consequences. The company's investing activities, management and funding are conducted to achieve the best possible long-term – meaning sustainable – outcome. The planning, governance and monitoring of sustainability activities follow Sagax's organisational structure with well-defined delegation of responsibilities and authorities.
Sustainability activities are based on applicable legislation and internal policies. Sagax has identified the following focus areas:
Environmental and climate impact
Heating and the use of electricity account for the largest share of properties' energy use. Sagax takes regular measures to reduce energy consumption. Sagax obtains sustainability ratings for buildings that are constructed and selected existing buildings.
Business conduct
Sagax works to combat all forms of corruption, and has a whistle-blower function available on the Sagax website and a Code of Conduct for Suppliers.
Sagax's business model is characterised in all areas by a long-term approach. Short-term gains are subordinate to the company's long-term value creation. Accordingly, sustainability work is integrated into the business model.
Workforce and value chain
The development of the company is dependent on highly skilled employees. For this reason, it is important that the company is an attractive employer that can recruit and has the ability to retain highly skilled personnel. Sagax employees are expected to assume responsibility of their work duties and serve as good representatives of the company's values and culture.
Additional information on Sagax's sustainability activities is available in the sustainability report in Sagax's 2025 Annual Report.

The profit and cash flow items below refer to the January to March 2026 period. The balance-sheet items refer to the position at the end of the period. The comparative items refer to the year-earlier period and the position at the end of the period last year.
PROFIT
Profit from property management attributable to the Parent Company's shareholders decreased 2% to SEK 1,029 M (1,053). Profit from property management decreased due to currency effects, a higher vacancy rate, divestments and higher average interest rate. Profit from property management per Class A and B share after dilution amounted to SEK 2.85 (2.92).
Property revaluation had an impact on profit of SEK 460 M (-17), of which SEK 21 M (50) referred to changes in the value of properties in joint ventures and associated companies.

REVENUE
Rental revenue increased 3% to SEK 1,344 M (1,307). Revenue was primarily affected by property acquisitions in the Benelux, Iberia, France and Denmark segments as well as by rent indexation.
79% of rental revenue for the period was generated in EUR. Excluding currency effects, rental revenue in comparable portfolios increased 0.5% (1.2). The segments with the largest percentage increases were Iberia 4.9%, Sweden 3.0% and Denmark 2.1%. The weighted inflation for Sagax's segments in the same period was 1.6% (1.1) at an annual rate.

INTERIM REPORT JANUARY - MARCH 2026
CHANGE IN THE ECONOMIC OCCUPANCY RATE
The economic occupancy rate amounted to 95% (96). During the period, the vacancy value increased SEK 117 M (46) due to tenants vacating premises and decreased SEK 50 M (53) following new lettings. Fixed-term rent discounts reduced the vacancy value by SEK 3 M (increased by 3) to SEK 46 M (43) on an annual basis at the end of the period. Acquired and divested properties as well as decommissioned buildings during the period decreased the vacancy value by a net SEK 1 M (decreased by 9). Exchange rate fluctuations increased the vacancy value by SEK 2 M (decreased by 9). The total vacancy value at the end of the period amounted to SEK 307 M (210).
FUTURE VACANCY CHANGES
At the end of the period, notice of termination had been served for leases with a rental value of SEK 199 M (224), of which leases with notice of vacating the premises accounted for SEK 189 M (222) and leases amounting to SEK 10 M (1) were terminated with notice of renegotiation. Of the leases for which notice had been received, vacancies corresponding to a vacancy value of SEK 93 M will arise in 2026. At the end of the period, lettings of premises to tenants who have not yet occupied reduced the adjusted vacancy value by SEK 61 M (23). Of these, new lettings corresponding to a vacancy value of SEK 31 M will occur in 2026. The adjusted closing vacancy value was SEK 445 M (410).

PROPERTY EXPENSES
Operating and maintenance costs amounted to a total of SEK 171 M (143). Operating and maintenance costs in comparable portfolios excluding currency effects increased 12.4%, corresponding to SEK 18 M compared with the year-earlier period, primarily due to higher costs for electricity and heating in the Sweden and Finland segments. Weighted inflation for the period was 1.6% at an annual rate, which is the reason that the costs, in real terms, increased 10.8% corresponding to SEK 16 M.
Expenses for property tax increased to SEK 81 M (73) and other property expenses increased to SEK 32 M (30) due to property acquisitions.
CENTRAL ADMINISTRATION
Central administration costs amounted to SEK 51 M (47), corresponding to 3.8% (3.6) of the period's rental revenue.
At the end of the period, Sagax had 108 (98) employees. Functions such as property caretaking and on-call operations are outsourced. Sagax has offices in Stockholm, Helsinki, Paris, Lyon, Rotterdam, Barcelona, Madrid, Frankfurt and Copenhagen.

Forecast and current earnings capacity
UNCHANGED FORECAST FOR 2026
Profit from property management for 2026 attributable to the Parent Company's shareholders, meaning profit before revaluations and tax, based on the current property portfolio, announced acquisitions and divestments and current exchange rates, is expected to amount to SEK 4,500 M. The forecast was presented in the 2025 year-end report.
CURRENT EARNINGS CAPACITY
Current earnings capacity is reported in conjunction with interim reports and year-end reports.
The table below shows the earnings capacity on a 12-month basis on 1 April 2026. It is important to note that this capacity is not equivalent to a forecast for the forthcoming 12 months since it does not contain assessments about, for example, future vacancies, interest rate scenario, currency effects, rent trends or changes in value.
The rental value is based on contractual rental revenue on an annual basis, with supplements for estimated market rents for vacant premises.

Yield and interest rate
Property expenses are based on actual outcomes over the past 12 months adjusted for the holding period. Central administration costs are based on actual outcomes over the past 12 months. Net financial items are calculated based on interest-bearing liabilities and assets on the balance sheet date. Expenses for interest-bearing liabilities are based on the Group's estimated average interest rate, plus accrued financing costs and the costs for unutilised credit facilities on the balance sheet date. Lease expenses essentially pertain to site leasehold fees that are based on actual outcomes over the past 12 months. Dividends attributable to the company's holdings of listed shares were not taken into account in the earnings capacity. Tax is calculated at the standard tax rate of 16% (16). Translation from EUR took place at the closing rate of SEK 10.94, which was 1.2% higher than the rate of SEK 10.82 that was used to calculate the earnings capacity as per 1 January 2026. As per 1 April 2026, 79% of Sagax's rental value was generated in EUR. A property in Oulu with an annual rent of SEK 76 M was divested during the period. Excluding divestments and currency effects, the earnings capacity's rental revenue for the period increased 0.2%, while net operating income decreased 0.4%.
Share in profit from joint ventures and associated companies are calculated in accordance with the same principles as for Sagax, taking into account the size of the participations.

Sagax has a diverse lease structure, which improves the company's possibilities to maintain a stable occupancy rate. To reduce the risk of lower rental revenue, Sagax endeavours to create long-term relationships with the company's tenants and to achieve diversification in terms of the duration and size of its leases.
Sagax's annual rent at the end of the period was distributed between 2,724 leases (2,632). The table below presents the size of Sagax's leases in relation to the Group's annual rent at the end of the period. The table shows that 2,710 leases (2,616) had an individual rental value of less than 0.5% of the Group's annual rent. The total rental value for these leases accounted for 87% (85) of Sagax's annual rent. In addition, Sagax was party to fourteen leases (sixteen) with a rental value corresponding to 0.5–2.0% of the Group's annual rent. Combined, these leases total 13% (15) of Sagax's annual rent. None of Sagax's leases had an annual rental value that accounted for more than 2% of the Group's annual rent (last year no lease accounted for more than 2% of the Group's annual rent).

The five largest tenants in alphabetical order are Colas, Kesko, Metro, Saint-Gobain and Vantive.
Sagax's tenants operate in a variety of sectors. Companies in the manufacturing industry accounted for 18% (17) of rental revenue. Food-related operations and automotive-related industry, including sales, service and manufacturing, accounted for 14% (15) and 13% (13) of rental revenue, respectively.

According to Sagax's asset management strategy, the company strives to secure long-term leases and an even distribution of contract maturities over the years. This is deemed to reduce the risk of significant variations in the Group's occupancy rate. Leases representing 50% of the annual rent expire in or after 2030. 10–15% of annual rent expires each year between 2026 and 2029.

INTERIM REPORT JANUARY - MARCH 2026
Market value of property portfolio
Sagax prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards. The company has decided to measure its properties at fair value according to Level 3 of IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement.
Sagax uses external valuations to determine the market value of its properties. The valuations are carried out by independent valuation companies and updated on a quarterly basis.
The total market value of Sagax's 1,050 properties (989) was established at SEK 69,749 M (64,040) on 31 March 2026. Exchange rate fluctuations during the period resulted in property values denominated in EUR and DKK changing by SEK 630 M (-2,807).
The unrealised change in value amounted to SEK 420 M (-67) corresponding to a change in value of 0.6% (-0.1). In the same period, weighted inflation was 1.0% (0.5) in the markets where Sagax is active. Accordingly, the real change in value amounted to -0.3% (-0.6).
Of this unrealised change in value, SEK -108 M was attributable to property management and SEK 528 M was related to general changes in market value.
VALUATION METHOD AND IMPLEMENTATION
The valuations were carried out in accordance with generally accepted international valuation methods. Properties corresponding to 100% of the property value had been valued by authorised property appraisers from independent valuation companies as per 31 March 2026.
The principal method of appraisal used was cash flow calculations in which the present value of net operating income, investments and residual values was calculated. The calculation period was adjusted to the remaining term of existing leases and varies between five and 17 years. As a rule, the calculation period is ten years. For more information, refer to page 95 of Sagax's 2025 Annual Report.
ANALYSIS AND GENERAL CONDITIONS
The discount rate for the present value calculation of cash flows (5.0–16.0%), the discount rate for the present value calculation of residual values (5.0–16.0%) and the capitalisation rate for the residual value calculations (4.8–14.0%) are based on comparable transactions and on individual assessments of the risk level and market position of each property.
The weighted discount rate for the present value calculation of cash flows and residual values for the property portfolio amounted to 7.9% (8.2) and 8.0% (8.2), respectively. The weighted capitalisation rate was 6.3% (6.4).

Other current assets amounted to SEK 358 M (648) at the end of the period. Due rent receivables amounted to SEK 20 M (28).
ACCRUED EXPENSES AND DEFERRED INCOME
Accrued expenses and deferred income amounted to SEK 928 M (1,150) at the end of the period and primarily comprised deferred rental revenue of SEK 344 M (674) and accrued interest expenses of SEK 359 M (309).
The Sagax share and shareholders
At the end of the period, Sagax had 31,218 shareholders (28,781). Sagax's market capitalisation amounted to SEK 63,126 M (75,308). Sagax has three classes of shares: Class A, B and D common shares. The shares are listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, Large Cap. A total of 466,708,926 shares were outstanding at the end of the period, of which 2,000,000 were Class B treasury shares. According to the Articles of Association, each Class D share is entitled to five times the total dividend on Class A and B shares, although not more than SEK 2.00 per share annually.
WARRANTS
Sagax has three warrant plans for the company's employees. In total, Sagax's employees hold warrants corresponding to 0.3% of the number of Class A and B shares outstanding. The company's CEO and Board Members do not participate in the plans. These plans are valid for three years, and encompass the periods 2023–2026, 2024–2027 and 2025–2028.
The subscription price corresponds to the price paid for the Class B share at the start of each warrant plan, converted using the average total return in accordance with a real estate index comprising property companies listed on Nasdaq Stockholm's main list during each respective three-year period. Accordingly, the warrants will have a value on condition that the total return of the Sagax share exceeds the average for the listed property companies during each three-year period.
PROFIT FROM PROPERTY MANAGEMENT PER CLASS A AND B SHARE
Profit from property management per Class A and B share after dilution, rolling 12 months, amounted to SEK 12.31 (12.12), which, compared with the share price of the Class B share, corresponded to a multiple of 14.1 (17.4).
EQUITY PER CLASS A AND B SHARE
Equity per Class A and B share after dilution amounted to SEK 117.54 (108.21). Net asset value per Class A and B share amounted to SEK 135.30 (125.30). The share price for the Class B share at the end of the quarter was 148% (195) of equity per Class A and B share and 129% (168) of net asset value per Class A and B share.

INTERIM REPORT JANUARY - MARCH 2026
Risks and uncertainties
To prepare the accounts based on IFRS Accounting Standards, company management must make judgements and assumptions that affect asset and liability items, revenue and expense items recognised in the accounts and other information provided. The actual outcome may differ from these judgements. Sagax is also exposed to various risks that may be of significance to the company's future business, earnings and financial position. Sagax works continuously to identify and, if possible, address any risks.
Sagax's main risks are described below and in the 2025 Annual Report, on pages 50–53.
PROPERTY-RELATED RISKS
The valuation of investment properties is affected by the estimates and assumptions made. To reduce the risk of incorrect estimates, properties corresponding to 100% of the property value on 31 March 2026 were valued by authorised property appraisers from independent valuation companies. By their very nature, properties valuations are always associated with uncertainty.
Sagax prioritises leasing to tenants with a high credit rating and long-term leases, despite these entailing slightly lower immediate earnings. The intention is to reduce the risk of rent losses and the risk of vacancies.
Sagax mainly enters into net leases. This means the tenant accounts for the costs of such items as heating, electricity, property tax, water and sewage, in addition to the contractual rent. Accordingly, Sagax is only affected to a limited extent by changed costs due to changes in consumption or changed rates for such utilities as heating and electricity. More than 95% of Sagax's leases are indexed to the CPI or the equivalent. Annual indexation may, in certain cases, be limited by a CPI ceiling or floor. A small number of leases have annual fixed rental adjustments.
The geographic distribution of Sagax's property portfolio and the industries of its tenants are highly diversified. Sagax's lease structure of many small leases help reduce the risks of vacancies and rent losses.
FINANCIAL RISKS
Sagax's financial expenses comprise the single largest expense for the Group. To reduce Sagax's exposure to a rise in interest rates, the Group has a significant portion of fixed-rate loans. To limit interest-rate risk for loans at floating interest rates, interest-rate swaps and interest-rate caps are used. Sagax's funding primarily comprises equity and interest-bearing liabilities. Sagax endeavours to secure a long average remaining term of interest-bearing liabilities to limit its refinancing risk, defined as the risk that refinancing existing debt cannot take place on reasonable terms. The company's long-term funding comprises listed bonds and bank loans. The complete terms and conditions for the bond loans are available at www.sagax.se.
CURRENCY EXPOSURE
The amounts in the consolidated balance sheet are partly exposed to exchange rate fluctuations, particularly for the EUR. Net exposure on 31 March 2026, assets less liabilities in EUR, amounted to SEK 14,302 M (13,968). In total, net exposure in EUR amounted to 32% (33) of equity. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the balance sheets of the Group's foreign operations are translated from their functional currencies into SEK based on the exchange rates applying on the balance sheet date. On 31 March, EUR 1 was equivalent to SEK 10.94 (10.85), and DKK 1 was equivalent to SEK 1.46 (1.45). Revenue and expense items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period: EUR 1 was equivalent to SEK 10.69 (11.23) and DKK 1 was equivalent to SEK 1.43 (1.51). In accordance with IAS 21, the currency effects for foreign operations and hedge accounting are recognised in Other comprehensive income. Other currency effects are recognised in profit or loss.
RISK OF CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
To limit the risk of potential conflicts of interest, the Group has policies that prohibit Sagax's employees and Board members from:
i. Committing to Board assignments in property companies that primarily own warehouse and industrial premises except for those companies in which Sagax is a shareholder and when the Board assignment is performed within the framework of Sagax's operations.
ii. Investing in companies in which Sagax is a shareholder.
iii. Investing in competitors for an amount exceeding 10% of the value of the employee's or Board member's holdings in Sagax.
The policies also specify that senior executives and Board members who borrow against more than 10% of the market value of their shares in Sagax shall notify the company. As per the publication of this report no such notification has been received.

Notes

This document is an in-house translation of the Swedish Interim report. In the event of discrepancies, the Swedish original will supersede the translation.
INTERIM REPORT JANUARY – MARCH 2026
NOTE 1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This condensed interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. Disclosures in accordance with IAS 34 are provided in both the notes and elsewhere in this interim report. The term IFRS Accounting Standards in this report means application of IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU. The accounting policies and calculation methods are the same as those applied in the 2025 Annual Report and are to be read together with this Annual Report.
On 9 April 2024, the IASB® issued a new standard, IFRS 18, which will replace IAS 1. IFRS 18 enters into force for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2027, with early application permitted. Retrospective application is to be applied for comparative periods. The EU adopted the standard in February 2026. IFRS 18 is not expected to have any effect on estimates and judgements in the Group's financial statements. Changes will primarily be made to the presentation of the statement of comprehensive income, which will be divided into new categories, and to the statement of cash flows, which will be based on operating profit instead of profit before tax. Profit from property management will be reported separately from the statement of comprehensive income. The standard also requires disclosures of certain management-defined performance measures (MPM).
There are no other changes to accounting standards that have not yet come into effect and that are expected to have any material impact on Sagax's accounts.
Rounding-off differences may occur.
NOTE 2 SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
Transactions with related parties are described in Note 27 of the 2025 Annual Report. No material changes regarding transactions with related parties have taken place in relation to the information presented in the 2025 Annual Report.
NOTE 3 EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
On April 16, it was announced that Sagax has adjusted the financial targets. The following financial targets have been established:
- Return on equity of at least 12% per year over the period 2026–2030.
- Growth in profit from property management per Class A and B share of 5–10% per year over the period 2026–2030.
These targets replace the financial targets established in 2013, which were as follows:
- Return on equity, measured over a five-year period, shall exceed 15% per year.
- Profit from property management per Class A and B share shall increase by a minimum of 15% per year.
Sagax's dividend policy remains unchanged.
No other significant events have occurred after the end of the period.
SIGNING OF THE REPORT
The Board of Directors and CEO give their assurance that this interim report provides a fair overview of the company's and the Group's operations, financial position and earnings and describes significant risks and uncertainties faced by the company and the companies included in the Group.

INTERIM REPORT JANUARY – MARCH 2026
Alternative Performance Measures
Sagax applies the European Securities and Market Authority's (ESMA) Guidelines on the Alternative Performance Measures. Alternative performance measures refer to financial measures of historical or future earnings trends, financial position, financial results or cash flows that are not defined or stated in the applicable rules for financial reporting, which in Sagax's case is IFRS Accounting Standards. The basis of the alternative performance measures provided is that they are used by company management to assess the financial performance and thus are considered to provide valuable information to shareholders and other stakeholders.
