The property Stenåldern 6 in Malmö.

Continuous development ensures value creation

In the first nine months of the year, SLP retained its high rate of activity and acquisitions, while operations made strong progress on a stable financial foundation. Rental income increased by 21 percent and net operating income by 22 percent in the third quarter, in year-on-year terms. Profit from property management increased by 26 percent, which is very satisfying. This was despite the fact that the new issues from the previous year of SEK 1,100 m were mainly allocated to new construction projects where profit from property management does not feed through to profit until during the first quarter 2025. Despite the continuous expansion of operations, administration costs remain at the same level, which makes a positive contribution to profit from property management and illustrates our efficiency and cost consciousness. Net letting also made positive progress and amounted to SEK 24 m in the period.

In the first nine months of the year, we completed nine acquisitions with a total area of 113,000 square metres and a rental value of SEK 84 m. We continue to maintain a steady rate of acquisitions, i.e. one per month on average. The conditions for continuing to acquire logistics properties with development potential remain excellent. We continuously evaluate potential transactions and are well prepared for completing further acquisitions in the near future.

New issue increases investment opportunities

We want to continue to capitalise on investment opportunities in the logistics sector, while retaining our stable financial foundation and risk profile. To ensure this, we completed a directed new issue in the quarter totalling SEK 1,100 m at a premium of approximately 30 percent compared to the reported net asset value per share at the end of the first six months. The issue attracted considerable interest from several Swedish and international existing and new institutional investors. The capital raised will finance new investments in property acquisitions as well as new construction projects, ensuring continued growth in profit from property management and NAV per share, in line with the company's strategy and overarching goals.

Refinancing and continued stable finances

Since the foundation of the company, we have only used secured bank financing from our Nordic banks. The conditions for continuing our growth journey with these banks are better than ever. In September, we refinanced, ahead of time, loans totalling approximately SEK 1,400 m. This corresponds to approximately 25 percent of our total loan portfolio. The loans that would have matured in the second quarter 2025 now run for a further 3 years, immediately ensuring lower average margins while also extending capital tied up. This was the result of close and effective dialogue with, and very considerable interest from, our existing banks. We foresee good opportunities to continue our growth journey with secured bank financing on attractive terms in future.

The refinancing contributes to increasing capital tied up by approximately eight months for the entire portfolio, which means that it reached 2 years at the end of the third quarter. Falling market interest rates and lower margins mean that the average interest rate decreased by 30 b.p. at the end of the period, implying an average interest rate of 3.8 percent compared to 4.1 percent at the end of the second quarter.

Value growth continues in the third quarter

Despite an increase in the portfolio's average return requirement from 5.2 percent to 5.9 percent over the past 2 years, our properties have returned positive value growth each quarter. This was largely made possibly by investments in, and development of, our properties. The return requirement remained unchanged in the third quarter, which further highlights our development work which generated value growth of SEK 72 m for the properties in the quarter. Net asset value (NAV) per share has thus increased by 13 percent since year end, above target annual growth of 15 percent.

Tried and tested business model

SLP's business concept is to acquire, develop and manage logistics properties with a focus on sustainability. Continuous value growth is created through acquisitions and ongoing development of properties located in Sweden's most critical logistics hubs. The development also leads to sustainable assets with green financing and optimized net operating income. We focus sharply on sustainability and energy-saving measures, which benefits both our own and our customers' operations. On the foundation of an established business model and a strong financial position, we continue to expand with a focus on value-creating development and strategic acquisitions. In combination with an effective transactions market in logistics properties and falling interest rates, we enjoy favourable prospects for continuing to develop operations through an active acquisition strategy.

Tommy Åstrand, CEO

SLP in brief

SLP shall acquire, develop and manage logistics properties with a focus on sustainability.

Overarching goal

To generate average annual growth in NAV per share of at least 15% and annual average growth in profit from property management per share of at least 15%.

Financial risk limitations

  • Minimum interest coverage ratio of 2.5 x
  • Maximum long-term loan-to-value ratio of 55%
  • Minimum equity/assets ratio of 40%

Dividend policy

SLP shall continue to grow and therefore reinvest in its operations with the aim of generating further growth through property acquisitions and investments in new construction, conversions and extensions. This means that dividends will be low or zero over the coming years.

Overarching strategy

In order to reach its overarching goals the company works with its own staff in five strategic areas: acquisitions, property development, property management, financing and sustainability.

  • Acquisitions: The company grows its property holdings by acquiring properties and building rights. The properties acquired are in strategic logistics locations and are suitable development targets.
  • Property development: Properties are developed through new construction, extensions and conversions, and by optimizing net operating income for the properties. Net operating income is optimized by letting vacant premises, renegotiating and extending rental agreements, and through increased energy efficiency.
  • Property management: SLP's property management is characterized by active customer dialogue, short decision paths and a long-term view.
  • Financing: The company ensures long-term and cost-efficient financing, and an optimized debt/equity ratio.
  • Sustainability: SLP has an ambitious approach to sustainability and environmental and social responsibility. Read more about our sustainability work on the following pages.

Developments on the logistics market

Geopolitical unrest shifts warehousing and production back to Sweden

Global uncertainty and geopolitical tensions are leading companies to reassess their supply chains and relocate production and warehousing closer to domestic markets in order to reduce risk and increase delivery reliability.

E-commerce and digital maturity leads to changing behaviours

Digital maturity and e-commerce growth in Sweden has changed consumer behaviour and created new challenges and opportunities for the logistics sector in terms of managing increased online retailing and expectations on quick deliveries.

Growing demand for modern refrigerator and freezer warehousing

Global trade and high consumer expectations on availability of foods are driving growing demand for modern refrigerator and freezer delivery and warehousing. This is critical for ensuring product quality and shelf life, which requires investments in new technology and infrastructure.

Growing demand for city logistics

In order to address challenges such as crowding, environmental impact and delivery efficiency, there is growing demand for efficient logistics solutions, which makes city logistics an increasingly important area. City logistics are required to meet the need for fast, sustainable deliveries in urban environments.

Demands for more circular and sustainable distribution

The need for making supply chains more sustainable is becoming increasingly pressing. Components shortages are driving companies to build more sustainable and resilient supply chains.

SLP's sustainability work

SLP strives to ensure sustainable working methods that contribute to improving the environment and society, today and for the future. We view sustainability as an integral part of our business model and daily work. SLP's sustainability work is based on the Group's business concept, Code of Conduct and other governing documents, as well as our sustainability policy and sustainability framework with related goals. By integrating sustainability, we shall create value for our stakeholders in both the short and long term.

Our Responsibility- sustainability framework

We have chosen to call our sustainability framework Our Responsibility. It spans three focus areas – Planet, People and Business – and includes the company's key sustainability areas. Our Responsibility contains concrete goals, KPIs and activities in each focus area. The framework is based on materiality analysis and stakeholder dialogues carried out. The goals linked to identified key sustainability areas have been adopted by the company's Board.

  • Planet: The main contribution we are making to environmentally sustainable development is optimizing our properties. Lower energy consumption, a higher proportion of renewable energy, resource optimization and environmental certification of our property holdings create value both for the planet and for SLP as a company.
  • People: Looking after people, our employees and tenants alike, is critical to SLP's success. SLP shall actively strive to retain and attract skilled employees and do our utmost to create long-term relationships and environments where our tenants enjoy working.
  • Business: We shall run the operation in a sustainable way with lasting long-term profitability. Everything we do shall be characterized by good business practice. We shall focus on long-term business relationships and partnerships with our tenants and suppliers alike.

Sustainability Report This is an interim report and includes some of SLP's sustainability work and goal monitoring. The full picture of the company's sustainability work and goal attainment is published annually in the annual report. Read more about our sustainability work here, link to sustainability reporting.

Sustainability – goals and goal attainment

Sustainability goals

For each focus area within SLP's sustainability framework – Our Responsibility - Planet, People and Business, we have formulated and adopted goals. Please refer to sustainability goals and monitoring of goal attainment in the KPI table to the right. Sustainability goals for solar cells, climate neutral projects, charging points, environmentally certified area, eNPS, equality, Code of Conduct for suppliers and sustainable financing are monitored and presented on a quarterly basis. Other sustainability goals are monitored and presented annually.

CSRD and new statutory requirements

SLP is not subject to statutory requirements under the CSRD and ESRS directives until the financial year 2025, but is preparing the company ahead of future reporting standards. The work associated with and implementation of the double materiality analysis is currently underway. From the financial year 2024 onwards, SLP is required to present sustainability reporting under the Annual Accounts Act.

EU Taxonomy

SLP is not covered by the 2025 taxonomy's reporting requirements until the financial year 2025, but the company always strives to be transparent in its approach to material topics for the business and the company's stakeholders. SLP reports the extent of operations encompassed by the EU taxonomy and provides guidance on the extent of operations judged to be compatible with the taxonomy.

Green transition of existing properties

Since its foundation, SLP has focused closely on optimizing and rationalizing the existing property holding. Investing in modern and efficient equipment and actively optimizing operations contributes to reducing energy consumption and increasing net operating income. For properties owned by SLP since 2021, where we have access to complete energy data, energy use has decreased by 19 percent in the comparable holding. In addition, we have worked extensively to improve our energy ratings.

Several sustainability targets reached ahead of time

SLP continuously strives to improve energy efficiency and obtain environmental certification for its properties in order to increase net operating income and reduce the climate footprint. This work was successful and progressed better than expected, which resulted in SLP already achieving 50 percent environmentally certified lettable area, a target originally set for the end of 2025. This is despite an increase in the total area of the holding. During the year, we also reached the goal of sustainable loans comprising a minimum of 70 percent of total financing, as well as achieving output from installed solar cells of over 15 MW ahead of time.

SEK 166/m2 Difference in net operating income for investment properties and development properties

52% Percentage of development properties

In order to present differences in the character of the property holdings according to whether the intention is to acquire, develop or manage the properties, we have divided the holdings into the following categories: property management, development, projects and building rights.

Property management

This category includes properties that are essentially fully developed and thereby generate stable cash flows.

Development

This category covers the properties characterized by their potential to create value. It may for example include substantial vacancies, rental potential or the opportunity for cost reductions.

Projects

To create attractive logistics properties, ongoing new construction projects are carried out as well as adaptations for tenants in the form of conversions and extensions.

Building rights

Acquiring properties that also have building rights and exploiting the building rights in existing holdings increase the lettable area further.

The following table presents the distribution of the property holdings according to this categorization and the current earnings ability as of 1 October 2024.

The summary relates to properties owned by SLP at the end of the period. Rental values relate to contractual rent plus annualized vacancies. Net operating income relates to contractual rent less normalized property costs including property administration. Rental income SEK/m2 is based on the area let in each category. The judgements and assumptions that form the basis for the information contained in this table imply uncertainties and the information should not be viewed as a forecast.

Projects

To create attractive logistics properties, SLP carries out ongoing new construction projects as well as adaptations for tenants in the form of conversions and extensions. The projects are carried out in close collaboration with our tenants.

Ongoing projects

At present, three major projects are in progress relating to new construction and one conversion and extension project over a total area of 93,600 square metres. All new construction projects will have a minimum of Sweden Green Building Council Silver level certification or equivalent.

In the period, tenants moved into 2,200 square metres in Malmö, where building rights for an existing property were used for an extension.

The table to the right presents projects with a value of over SEK 25 m.

Other projects

In addition to the projects in the table, several smaller rent-generating, cost-reducing or energy-saving projects are continuously in progress. In the period, SEK 61 m was invested in energy saving projects and SEK 201 m in other projects. Major ongoing projects > SEK 25 m

Ackumulatorn 1

SLP acquired the Ackumulatorn 1 property in Helsingborg in December 2022. The current building, which is fully let, covers 15,600 square metres, with the majority let to two tenants. A part of the building rights for the property will now be utilized, as an agreement relating to an extension has been signed with one of the existing tenants. The building will be extended by 3,000 square metres, of which 2,500 square metres comprises cooled space and 500 square metres office premises. The new rental agreement also entails extending the term by just over 10 years.

Planning permission was obtained and the project started in the third quarter of 2024. The extension is scheduled for completion in Q2 2025. In connection with the extension, existing cooled spaces will also be

developed, further reducing SLP's operating costs.

Information about projects in the report is based on estimates regarding size and scope, and expected completion dates. Furthermore, the information is based on estimates relating to future project costs and rental values. The judgements and assumptions should not be viewed as a forecast and they imply uncertainties in terms of project completion, structure and scale, time plan, project costs and future rental value and net operating income. Information about ongoing construction and planned projects is evaluated regularly, and judgements and assumptions are adjusted in line with ongoing construction projects being completed or started, and changing conditions generally.

*As the improvement in net operating income for the project relates both to higher rental values and lower operating costs, total net operating income for the project has been indicated.

Transactions

Acquisitions of development properties are a central part of SLP's growth strategy. Nine transactions took place in the period.

Acquisitions

SLP took ownership of nine acquired properties in the period, which increased the lettable area by 113,000 square metres and the rental value by SEK 84 m.

In November 2023, SLP announced that the company had signed an agreement relating to a new construction project of 11,000 square metres in Katrineholm, and signed a 15-year rental agreement with Seafrigo, relating to the entire area. The transaction was conditional on local municipality approval of the planning application and land acquisition, which was obtained in the first quarter 2024.

During March, SLP took ownership of its 100th property through its first acquisition in Gothenburg. The property Backa 29:14 has total floor area of 20,700 square metres and lettable area of 6,700 square metres, which

includes the opportunity for further construction. The new rental agreement, which is fully indexed, has a 6.5-year term with annual rental values of SEK 8.2 m. The property offers the opportunity for investment in energy projects such as solar cells.

In April, SLP acquired building rights in Jönköping over a land area of 38,500 square metres. The property has a completed zoning plan permitting utilization of approximately 60 percent of the land, which allows for new construction of around 23,000 square metres.

In May, SLP acquired a fully let logistics property with a rental term of 9 years in Eskilstuna. The annual rent, which is fully index-linked, amounts to SEK 8.9 m. A further logistics property with development potential was also acquired in Eskilstuna. The property, which includes building rights, covers approximately 59,000 square metres. The entire premises of 27,000 square metres are currently let under a fully index-linked rental agreement with annual rent of SEK 17.3 m.

In June, SLP acquired a newly built logistics property with associated building rights in Ulricehamn, as well as a logistics property in Linköping. Both properties are fully let under index-linked rental agreements, with annual rent of SEK 17 m and SEK 8.3 m respectively.

In September, the company acquired two fully let logistics properties with considerable development potential in Örebro and Lidköping. The total annual rent amounts to approximately SEK 8.5 m and the property in Lidköping has a total area of 71,300 square metres with lettable area of approximately 16,000 square metres. The rental agreement runs until September 2029. The property in Örebro has a total area of 22,300 square metres with lettable area of approximately 4,700 square metres. The rental agreement runs until February 2033.

Tenants

SLP's portfolio of contracts is long term and the properties are developed and managed in close collaboration with the tenants. The tenants operate in a variety of industries, which is deemed to reduce the risk of vacancies and rental losses.

Rental agreement structure

The company aims to ensure long and evenly spaced tenancy periods in order to minimize risk. At the end of the period, the remaining tenancy period was 5.9 years (6.2). Contracts representing 45% of the contractual annual rent expire after 2029.

Contractual annual rent was divided between 339 contracts (310) at the end of the period.

The tenants operate in a variety of industries, the largest being transport and logistics, and food retail.

Rental value

The rental value of SLP's rental agreements, i.e. the contractual annual rent plus estimated market rent for vacant premises, amounted to SEK 762 m (623) at the end of the period. This corresponds to a rental value of SEK 771/m2 (731).

Contractual annual rent of SEK 730 m was impacted by rental discounts of SEK 7 m annually. Rental discounts are usually offered at the start of the lease and progressively phased out.

99% of the contractual annual rent is indexed through rental agreements linked to the CPI or has fixed increases, see the table Agreement structure – indexation.

Letting ratio

At the end of the period, the financial letting ratio was 95.9% (94.3).

10 largest tenants

The 10 largest rental agreements at the end of the period accounted for 26% of the contractual annual rent and had an average remaining tenancy period of 8.5 years.

Net rental income

Net rental income amounted to SEK 23.5 m (71.8) in the period, of which SEK 15.6 m related to new construction projects in Katrineholm.

Current earnings ability

The table reflects the company's earnings ability on a 12-month basis as of 1 October 2024 based on properties where SLP had taken ownership as of the record date. Because this summary does not represent a forecast, and aims to reflect a normal year, actual outcomes may vary due to decisions and unexpected events.

Earnings ability does not include estimated changes in rental, vacancy or interest rates. Neither does the earnings ability presented take into account value changes, changes to the property holdings or derivatives.

Net operating income is based on contractual annual rent as of 1 October 2024 and property costs based on a normal year for the current holdings excluding major ongoing projects.

Rental income is impacted by rental discounts of SEK 7 m annually. Rental discounts are usually offered at the start of the lease and progressively phased out.

Financial income is based on the company's cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet date at the applicable deposit rate.

Financial expenses are based on the company's interest rate at the end of the period including interest rate derivatives for interest-bearing liabilities on the balance sheet date, adjusted for borrowing attributable to major ongoing projects. From time to time, financing is temporarily more expensive in connection with acquisitions and new construction, this has been normalized in the calculation of net financial items. Tax has been calculated at a standard rate on the basis of the applicable tax rate at each point in time.

Rental income

Rental income amounted to SEK 516 m (430). The increase compared to the previous year primarily related to a larger property holding as a result of a high rate of acquisitions, lettings, tenants moving into new construction and CPI adjustments.

The financial letting ratio was 95.9% (94.3).

Property costs

Property costs amounted to SEK -67 m (-65). The year-on-year increase in property costs was due to the larger property holding as a result of a high acquisition rate. This was partly offset by reduced costs in the existing holding due to completed energy projects and lower media costs.

Property costs include operating, utilities, and maintenance costs, and property tax and insurance.

Most of the costs associated with utilities and property tax are invoiced to tenants.

Property administration

Property administration amounted to SEK -4 m (-4) and relates to staff costs for property management and letting.

Net operating income

Net operating income for the period amounted to SEK 445 m (362). For comparable holdings, net operating income increased by 8% on the previous year.

Central administration costs

Central administration costs amounted to SEK -18 m (-17). Central administration costs include personnel costs, group-wide costs, marketing costs and legal fees in relation to acquisitions.

Net financial income/expense

Net financial items for the period amounted to SEK -138 m (- 115). The higher year-on-year financial expenses primarily related to new borrowing as a result of the increased property holding.

The interest coverage ratio was 3.1 (3.0), compared to the financial risk threshold of a minimum multiple of 2.5. Ground rent for the period amounted to SEK -2 m (-2).

Profit from property management

Profit from property management for the period amounted to SEK 286 m (228).

Value change in investment properties

All properties were subject to an external valuation by Newsec at the end of the period.

The value change in the properties amounted to SEK 289 m (137) and related entirely to unrealized value changes.

Unrealized value changes were positively affected during the period by new lettings and new construction projects, deductions for deferred tax in connection with acquisitions and energy projects. The valuation assumes inflation of 1.75 percent for 2025, compared to an assumption of 2.0 percent at the start of 2024. The long-term assumption from 2026 onwards is 2.0 percent. 99% of the company's rents are indexed. The average direct return requirement in the valuations totalled 5.9% (5.9), unchanged since June 2023.

Value change in derivatives

Unrealized value changes in derivatives amounted to SEK -66 m (1). The negative change is linked to lower market interest rates for interest rate derivatives.

Tax

The tax cost for the period amounted to SEK -112 m (-85) and was primarily due to deferred tax on unrealized value changes on investment properties, tax depreciation, derivatives, untaxed reserves, carry-forwards of tax losses and current tax.

Profit for the period

Profit for the period amounted to SEK 397 m (281), corresponding to earnings per share after dilution of SEK 1.73 (1.44).

Comments on the statement of financial position

Investment properties

At the end of the period, the property holding encompassed 107 properties with a total lettable area of 1,082,000 square metres, including major ongoing projects.

The carrying amount for all properties amounted to SEK 12,446 m (9,534) at the end of the period, including SEK 1,263 m (264) relating to major ongoing projects and SEK 188 m (105) relating to building rights. In the period, SLP acquired a building right in Jönköping with the potential for new construction of approximately 23,000 square metres. Other building rights are available in existing properties. 100% of the building rights have zoning plans in place and these are expected to generate construction of approximately 215,000 square meters of lettable area. The estimated investment for this totals approximately SEK 2,400 m.

Valuation method and completion

The properties are recognized at fair value in accordance with IFRS 13 Level 3. The company's policy is that all of the property holdings are valued externally on a quarterly basis. The main method used in the valuation is cash flow calculations, which determine the present value of net operating income, investments and residual value. The calculation period is adjusted for the remaining term of the existing rental agreements, and varies between 5 and 27 years. Of the company's rents, 99% are index-linked and inflation is assumed at 1.75 percent for 2025 and 2.0 percent from 2026 and onwards.

All properties were subject to an external valuation by Newsec at the end of the period. The average direct return requirement in the valuations was 5.9%, which remains unchanged compared to the start of the year.

Ongoing projects are valued according to the same principle as for investment properties, but with a deduction for the remaining investment. Unrealized value changes are added depending on the phase the project is in and the estimated remaining risk.

Transactions

During the period, SLP carried out nine acquisitions. Nine properties were acquired with a total lettable area of approximately 113,000 square metres. Read more about acquisitions carried out in the Transactions section.

New construction, conversions and extensions

During the period, a total of SEK 1,081 m (210) was invested in existing property holdings, in new construction, conversions and extensions, energy investments as well as other investments. Other investments mainly relate to minor conversions and extensions.

Leasing agreements, right of use

Parts of the property holding include right-of-use agreements that generate right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. In the period, the company has taken ownership of a site leasehold as a result of the acquisition of Backa 29:14 in Gothenburg.

Financing

Equity

Group equity amounted to SEK 6,695 m (4,594), corresponding to an equity/assets ratio of 49.1% (45.2) compared to the risk threshold minimum of 40%. Equity has been positively affected by profit for the period of SEK 397 m.

In the third quarter, the company conducted another directed new share issue of 31.4 million Class B shares at a subscription price of SEK 35, which contributed SEK 1,100 m to the company before issue expenses.

In connection with an acquisition in the period, payment was made using internally-generated funds plus a partial payment in the form of shares. A new share issue of 1,000,000 Class B shares was completed at a share price of SEK 36.20 per share, corresponding to a value of SEK 36.2 m. The acquired property was measured at fair value with a positive value change, implying an additional increase in equity of SEK 6 m.

Interest-bearing liabilities

The Group's interest-bearing liabilities amounted to SEK 5,881 m (4,792), corresponding to a loan-to-value ratio of 39.1% (46.5) compared to the long-term risk threshold of a maximum of 55%. Net debt/EBITDA (forward looking) was a multiple of 8.0 (9.5). All liabilities are comprised of secured bank financing with Nordic banks.

The change in interest-bearing liabilities is linked to the financing of acquisitions and increased credit in connection with the refinancing of existing liabilities. At the end of the period, the average interest rate including interest rate derivatives was 3.8% (4.1). and the average credit margin was 1.47% (1.53).

The average fixed interest period was 2.7 years (1.9) and the average period of capital tied up was 2.0 years (1.5). The target average period for capital tied up is around two years in order to optimize capital costs and refinancing opportunities. In September, loans totalling approximately SEK 1,400 m were refinanced ahead of time, which increased capital tied up by approximately eight months and reduced the margin.

The portfolio of interest rate derivatives comprises swaption agreements totalling SEK 725 m starting in 2026-2028 with an average term of 4.2 years and an average contractual interest rate of 2.7 percent, which have not been taken into account in the fixed interest period. The proportion of loans with interest rate hedging via derivatives was 80%.

The existing loan portfolio has also been renegotiated to comprise sustainable secured bank loans, which means that the proportion of sustainable loans was 75% at the end of the period. The financing agreements are based on those parts of SLP's property portfolio that are environmentally certified according to certain standards, or have low energy use. These sustainable bank loans contain a margin discount of 5-10 basis points per year compared to existing loans.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 1,016 m (358) at the end of the period. In addition to cash and cash equivalents, the company has access to available funds in the form of unutilized acquisition credits totalling SEK 200 m, an unutilized overdraft facility of SEK 100 m and approved secured property credits of SEK 706 m.

Other information

Employees

The company had 15 employees at the end of the period. The company has its own staff in acquisitions, property management, projects, letting, sustainability, financing and finance. Property caretakers and technicians are hired locally by partners close to where our properties are located to ensure all tenants have the best possible service.

Transactions with closely related parties

The Parent Company provided property administration services to subsidiaries with a total value of SEK 18 m.

All transactions with related parties have been priced on market terms.

Risks and uncertainties

The Group's operations, financial position and profit can be positively and negatively affected by risks and external factors. The estimated risks are mapped, evaluated and managed on an ongoing basis. For more information about risks and uncertainties, see the 2023 Annual Report.

The ongoing war in Ukraine and the conflicts in the Middle East are having a negative impact on the global economy. We cannot see that any of our tenants' operations have any direct exposure to these markets. However, the operations, depending on which industry they operate in, are impacted indirectly due to inflation, disruptions to supply chains and price rises on the commodity market. Furthermore, we have not noted any significant direct impact on SLP's operations in terms of cost increases, project delays or increased credit margins. However, the proportion of SLP's loans with no interest hedging via derivatives is impacted by the increased 3-month STIBOR interest rate. In the current circumstances, we assess the total impact as low.

The 2025 Annual General Meeting will be held in Malmö, Sweden, on 29 April 2025.

See sensitivity analysis under "Comments on the Statement of Financial Position" and Annual Report 2023.

Auditor's Report

Swedish Logistic Property AB (publ), corp. reg. no. 559179-2873

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Swedish Logistic Property AB (publ) as of 30 September 2024 and the nine-month period then ended, which can be found on pages 1-5 and 8-24 of this document. The board of directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Group, and with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Parent Company.
