SSG: All-time high revenues and EBITDA

(Oslo, August 18, 2021) Self Storage Group ASA (Self Storage Group, OSE:SSG)

continues to deliver strong growth and reports all-time high revenues and EBITDA

in the second quarter and first half year of 2021. The revenues in Q2 2021 ended

at the all-time high NOK 85.9 million, a 20% increase from NOK 71.7 million in

corresponding quarter in 2020, and an EBITDA of NOK 52.2 million, up nearly 22%

from 42.9 million. The results of the first half year 2021 are also record high:

Revenues of NOK 162.6 million (142.5 million) and EBITDA of 96.1 million (82.9

million).

"We experienced strong demand for our services and achieved record high

occupancy in the second quarter. Our solid platform and business-model continue

to prove its robustness at handling rapid growth and expansion without

jeopardizing profitability. With a further increase in lettable area through the

successful acquisition of Dit Pulterkammer, with five facilities in Denmark, and

the acquisition of two properties in Norway, we are well positioned to take on

further growth opportunities", says Fabian Søbak, CEO of Self Storage Group.

Current lettable area increased by 15 100 m2 during the first half year of 2021

and consisted of 5 700 m2 from organic growth and 9 400 m2 from the acquisition

of Dit Pulterkammer, which was closed in April 2021. The Group plans to open

between 12 000 and 14 000 m2 organically during 2021. The average occupancy in

the second quarter of 2021 was 89.2% (82.3%) for sites in operation for at least

12 months and average rent per m2 was NOK 2 264 per year (NOK 2 349).

"The market for self-storage is driven by urbanization and smaller living spaces

resulting in an increased need for external storage solutions. We deliver on

this demand with a focus on sustainability, quality, and high customer

satisfaction. Self Storage Group is well-positioned as one of the leading

providers in Scandinavia and delivers stable growth with the benefits of scale,

strong brands and the unique combination of customer-oriented and automated

business model", says Steven Skaar, Chairman of Self Storage Group.

In the first half of 2021, the value of the freehold portfolio increased by NOK

533.3 million, to a total value of NOK 1 990 million, which includes a solid

pipeline with 36 700 m2 under development. SSG has, over the past three decades,

built unique and endurable scale in the market. With a solid financial position,

a strong organization and attractive assets, SSG is well positioned to leverage

its scalable platform, setting the foundation for a great future.
