Events third quarter

During the quarter, 75 apartments were completed in four different projects in Gothenburg, Härryda and Uppsala. In a reconstruction project in the property Kvillebäcken 5:6 on Lantmätaregatan in Gothenburg, 18 new rental apartments were completed. The property, which comprises a total of 37 apartments, was part of the transaction that Wallenstam carried out with Ikano Bostad in 2022, and it was vacated on September 29, 2023, according to agreement. In Uppsala, 33 rental apartments were completed in the Bersån development project, which is now fully completed, as well as 16 rental apartments in the Kompositören project. In addition to this, eight co-op terraced houses in the Pixbo Sjöterrass project in Härryda Municipality were completed, and sales have commenced.

Two public use properties, a nursery school and a school with a total combined floor space of about 7,000 sq m, were also completed in the urban development project Kallebäcks Terrasser during the quarter.

A sports hall in Mölnlycke Fabriker has been sold to Härryda Municipality for SEK 37 million. The property was vacated on September 4, 2023.

Business plan 2030 – Goal: Achieve a net asset value of SEK 100 per share

During the business plan 2030, Wallenstam has a goal of increasing the net asset value through a continued productive, cost-efficient and service-oriented business in the growth regions of Gothenburg, Stockholm and Uppsala. Successful letting, efficient management, value-creating investments, profitable new construction and profitable transactions will contribute to this net asset value growth. During the business plan, the equity/assets ratio shall not be less than 35 percent.

On September 30, 2023, the net asset value per share amounted to SEK 57.20 (61.50).

Our driving force

To create functioning, safe meeting places, provide new housing, supply commercial premises for companies to conduct their businesses in – this is our mission in society and our driving force as a company. We want to play our part in contributing to solutions to the societal challenges that exist in our business sector. Therefore we do not focus only on ownership. We create new buildings, new areas, new city silhouettes. Urban development projects become new districts, such as Mölnlycke Fabriker, Kallebäcks Terrasser, Umami Park and Ålta Torg. When we construct one or a few buildings in an existing area, we further develop and supplement what was already in place. We are proud of the fact that what we construct and develop has a societal benefit! And what we do, we should do in a profitable and sustainable way.

Several completed projects

In Kallebäcks Terrasser, we have completed a school and a nursery school just in time for the start of term. With 700 children in both the school and nursery school, this creates a sense of vibrancy and life, which feels really great! To date, tenants have also moved into 1,000 apartments, which we have constructed in the new district. A number of other businesses such as a convenience store, healthcare center, restaurants and a bakery are already established or will open shortly. Soon another 500 apartments will be ready for occupation, and a further 500 apartments will be constructed in the future before this fantastic area is fully completed.

Many people are noticing our refinement of the property on Birger Jarlsgatan in Stockholm and I can now also tell you that the restaurant Noema will open in the entrance floor in November! We are just in the final stage of the reconstruction and renovation work. The restaurant will be a wonderful meeting place and, I hope, an appreciated part of the area!

Hans tested our assets

We have very good assets in extremely attractive areas in the two metropolitan regions Gothenburg and Stockholm. When my namesake, storm Hans, brought gales and extreme amounts of rain over Sweden in August, it was a real stress test for our properties. We received a confirmation that the buildings stood solidly and without damage. Despite this, we naturally see challenges with the climate transition and we are working with climate hedging measures in both our new construction and existing holdings in order to be able to withstand future extreme weather events. On the sustainability side, energy efficiency improvements are also in focus where we are making investments to improve the energy classification of our properties.

Stable financing

Wallenstam has a stable financial situation, with a strong equity/assets ratio and a low loan-to-value ratio. Maintaining and strengthening our balance sheet is something we have worked with for a long time and even focused on during the so-called "good times". Even before interest rates started to rise, we chose to hedge our loans with interest rate derivatives which means that about 60 percent of our loans are now hedged for an average period of about 5 years. In combination with a microscopically small share of bond loans and the fact that we chose not to have any rating, I can state that we have created such a stable and comfortable position with regard to our financial situation that we can concentrate wholeheartedly on our business – our properties and our customers.

Strong demand

Demand for housing is enormous and there is also strong demand for our commercial premises. We can see that the decision-making time among our potential commercial customers has become longer, which is completely normal in times like these. However, the business sector in the Gothenburg region has performed very positively with both new establishments and expanding companies. Visitor flows in the city are also returning to pre-pandemic levels. This feels positive!

Good position in a turbulent global climate

A long-term approach and low risk-taking characterize Wallenstam and I can see that we really benefit from that now in a less favorable global climate. We have prepared well, financially and organizationally but also in terms of the composition of our property holdings. We are now in a consolidation phase until conditions change and in the meantime we are working on finding opportunities and preparing for new construction starts as soon as the opportunity arises, hopefully already in the coming year. We create value, both for society at large and for the individual, and this is our real driving force!

Comments on the consolidated income statement

JULY 1-SEPTEMBER 30

Rental income in the third quarter amounted to SEK 697 million (626), an increase of 11 percent or SEK 71 million, of which the majority came from comparable holdings, SEK 51 million. Newly constructed properties and larger projects added a further SEK 33 million. In late 2022, a number of properties were divested, which comparatively resulted in SEK 14 million in lower income during the third quarter of 2023.

Operating expenses amounted to SEK 151 million (129), an increase of SEK 22 million compared to the same quarter last year. Just over half of the increase was due to higher electricity prices in 2023 and the remainder was a result of general price increases. However, since the Group is a net electricity producer, the higher electricity expenses in our property operations do not mean a cost increase for the Group overall as an equivalent increase in revenue is found under other income. Net operating income increased by almost 10 percent and amounted to SEK 547 million (498), which corresponds to a surplus ratio in the quarter of 78.4 percent (79.5).

Net financial items investment properties amounted to SEK -183 million (-95) and increased due to the higher STIBOR rate. Capitalized interest amounted to SEK 35 million (22). Income from property management amounted to SEK 297 million (343).

In September, SEK 20 million was received in electricity support from the Swedish Government. This support relates to the Group's business but just over SEK 9 million has already been passed on as discounts to tenants with submetering. This part of the support is reported against income from property management and the remainder as Other income.

Changes in value of properties amounted to SEK -199 million (0) mainly due to write-downs in future projects. The properties' yield requirements are unchanged compared to the previous quarter.

Swap interest rates have risen during the quarter, which resulted in a positive change in value on our interest rate derivatives of SEK 116 million (310).

Profit after tax for the third quarter of 2023 amounted to SEK 212 million (754), which corresponds to earnings per share of SEK 0.3 (1.1).

JANUARY 1-SEPTEMBER 30

Income from property management amounted to SEK 828 million (993). Profit after tax for the period amounted to

SEK 42 million (2,904), which corresponds to earnings per share of SEK 0.1 (4.4).

Rental income

Rental income for the period increased by SEK 174 million and amounted to SEK 2,036 million (1,863). Adjusted for transactions, the increase was SEK 213 million where just over 40 percent came from added properties and larger projects and the remainder from comparable properties. The increase in comparable holdings primarily consisted of rent increases from indexations and rent negotiations as well as higher extra charges due to increased property tax and higher electricity prices.

The year's rent negotiations for the residential holdings are mainly effective from the first quarter of 2023. On average, the year's agreements mean a rent increase for apartments of 3.3 percent in total.

The rents in the commercial holdings were impacted by indexations and new lettings. In comparable holdings, the base rent for commercial increased by 9.1 percent compared to the previous year.

Wallenstam's revenue is evenly distributed between residential properties and commercial premises. The residential property holdings are fully let. Our commercial properties are mainly situated in central locations in Gothenburg, with offices as the largest type of commercial premises. The surrender rate, which reflects how large a proportion of the cancellable leases are extended, amounted to 89 percent (90). Our occupancy rate for commercial in terms of lettable area amounted to 91 percent on closing day which is unchanged compared to the previous quarter. In Gothenburg, where the majority of our commercial floor space is located, the occupancy rate is 93 percent.

In September, the Group received support from the Swedish Government of SEK 20 million for electricity, of which the part that was equivalent to the discounts provided is reported against the properties' income, just over SEK 9 million in total, and the remainder is reported against Other income.

Operating expenses & Net operating income

Seasonal effects at Wallenstam consist mainly of variable operating expenses, which are usually highest during quarters one and four when expenses for heating and property maintenance are generally higher.

NET OPERATING INCOME AND SURPLUS RATIO

WALLENSTAM | INTERIM REPORT JAN 1 - SEP 30, 2023


Operating expenses for the period amounted to SEK 518 million (423). Just over two thirds of the increase was due to higher electricity expenses as a result of higher electricity prices, which also led to increased expenses for non-deductible VAT. Since the Group is a net electricity producer, the higher electricity expenses in our property operations are offset by an equivalent increase in income within electricity revenue under Other income so the higher electricity expenses do not mean a cost increase for the Group overall. Weather-related expenses were SEK 4 million higher during the period compared to the same period in the previous year.

Net operating income increased by SEK 79 million. The surplus ratio amounted to 74.6 percent (77.3).

Management costs and administrative expenses

Management costs and administrative expenses totaled SEK 237 million (221) and are distributed among property management SEK 218 million (204), energy management SEK 9 million (4) and property transactions SEK 10 million (12).

Financial income & expenses

Financial income amounted to SEK 3 million (4) and financial expenses totaled SEK 510 million (258), and are distributed among investment properties in operation, expensed project-related interest and other which mainly consists of wind power and financial investments. Capitalized interest amounted to SEK 104 million (56).

The average debt for the period was SEK 0.7 billion higher than the same period last year and SEK 0.6 billion higher than year-end. The average interest rate was 2.76 percent compared to 1.40 percent in the same period last year, due to rising market interest rates.

Other income & Other expenses

Other income amounted to SEK 205 million (199) and other expenses totaled SEK -128 million (-113). The Group's electricity production as well as additional other income and expenses are recognized as other income and other expenses. For 2023, Swedish Government support for electricity is included of almost SEK 11 million while the previous year included non-recurring income of SEK 69 million from the sale of wind turbines.

The electricity price is higher compared with the same period of the previous year, and a share of the sales is made to the Group's own properties. Electricity production amounted to 200 GWh (252). The decrease in production was mainly due to the divestment of 13 wind turbines in May 2022 (39 GWh). In comparable holdings, production decreased by 13 GWh due to less wind in 2023.

Changes in value, investment properties

The change in value during the period amounted to SEK -810 million (374).

The average yield requirements on closing day amounted to 4.5 percent (4.5) for the commercial holdings and to 3.5 percent (3.0) for residential properties in operation. Compared to the previous quarter, the properties' yield requirements are unchanged. Added properties have a marginal impact on the average yield requirement. See also on page 8.

Change in value, financial instruments

The change in value of financial instruments includes changes in value of interest rate derivatives and holdings of listed and unlisted shares that constitute financial investments.

The value of interest rate derivatives developed positively during the period, SEK 29 million (1,957), due to rising interest rate levels. On closing day, the 10-year swap rate amounted to 3.44 percent, compared to 3.12 percent at the start of the year.

Change in value synthetic options

The AGM on May 3, 2023 resolved to introduce a synthetic options scheme of a maximum of 10,000,000 options directed to all personnel. The term of the scheme runs until March 1, 2027, and the expected cost in the event of a maximum outcome is SEK 350 million. At the start of the scheme in May 2023, personnel were invited to each receive 20,000-100,000 options. The value of the synthetic options varies with Wallenstam's share price. The option ceiling amounts to SEK 75 per share, which provides a value of SEK 30 per option in the event of a maximum outcome.

On closing day, the number of outstanding options amounted to 5,989,000, which were valued at SEK 21 million. Costs for social security contributions associated with the scheme amounted to SEK 7 million, which gave a total expense for the scheme of SEK 29 million (-).

Tax

The recognized tax for the period amounted to SEK -53 million (-592) net, of which SEK -53 million (-589) was deferred tax and SEK 0 million (-3) was current tax.

Comments on the consolidated balance sheet

OUR PROPERTIES

Development during the period

During the period, we have invested a total of SEK 1,880 million (3,289), of which SEK 1,813 million (3,192) in investment properties and SEK 67 million (97) in development properties. New construction projects in progress involve 1,163 apartments. The total value of rental apartment and development projects in progress, including land and projects for future new construction, amounted to SEK 5.2 billion (6.4) on closing day.

The right of use value for land granted with site leasehold rights has been estimated at SEK 505 million (500).

Investment properties

In view of the increased risks due to uncertainty about deliveries, inflation and increased construction costs, no gradual value growth on new construction is reported in the first nine months of the year.

The average yield requirements on closing day amounted to 4.5 percent for the commercial holdings and to 3.5 percent for residential properties in operation. The equivalent information for the third quarter of 2022 was 4.5 percent for commercial and 3.0 percent for residential. Compared to the previous quarter, the properties' yield requirements are unchanged.

The value of investment properties amounted to SEK 62,777 million (62,092) at the end of the period.

Development properties

Development properties mainly consist of the projects Bersán in Uppsala, which by agreement will be handed over to ASPER upon completion in 2023, Pixbo Sjöterrass in Mölnlycke, construction of eight co-op terraced houses, where sales started during the third quarter of 2023, and Sóra radhus in Österåker, construction of 11 co-op terraced houses, where sales started during the first quarter of 2022. As of September 30, seven of the terraced houses in Österåker have been taken into possession. The book value of Development properties amounted to SEK 282 million (217) at the end of the period.

Our markets

The cities in which we do business are characterized by growth and heavy demand for housing. Only a minor proportion of our rental apartments become available for rent due to relocation, and demand for finished, newly built rental apartments is high. For example, we currently have about 270,000 people in our housing queue for new construction.

We build mainly rental apartments, but also cooperative apartments, when there is a need for mixed forms of tenure. Our flexible business model, where co-op apartment sales do not start until the project is approaching completion, makes it possible to convert a co-op apartment project into a rental apartment project if demand for co-op apartments is uncertain.

We see that demand for commercial floor space in central Gothenburg is still stable.

Valuation

Investment properties

Wallenstam measures all of its investment properties internally at fair value. We enjoy good market and property intelligence through active monitoring, which provides us with a firm basis for performing internal valuations of our property holdings. However, we must emphasize that the real value of properties only becomes a reality when they are sold, and therefore a valuation is always an estimation.

In its assessments of property values, Wallenstam has used different yield requirements. The yield requirements reflect market conditions and differ based on where the property is located and type of property (housing or offices, etc).

A valuation is calculated based on a property's net operating income including site leasehold rents, set in relation to the yield requirement for each property.

As our properties are valued separately, no consideration is given to the portfolio premium that may exist in the property market.

New constructions of rental properties are measured at fair value, which is determined as cost plus the estimated surplus on the completion date in relation to the degree of completion of the construction. This is in turn based on expenses incurred. The surplus value on new production is gradually recognized during the construction period.

Land rights and building rights for zoned land are measured at market value.

Development properties

Development properties are properties that we intend to construct in order to divest on completion, for example co-op apartment properties. Development properties are recognized at the lower of cost (investments incurred) and the estimated net realizable value. The profit/loss is recognized when the property or apartment is completed and handed over to the buyer.

MARKET VALUE

WIND POWER

On closing day, Wallenstam had 53 wind turbines in operation divided among 17 wind farms. The installed output amounted to 112 MW (143). Wind turbines are recognized at cost less depreciation and impairment losses.

On closing day, the consolidated book value of wind turbines amounted to SEK 1,008 million (1,017). During the second quarter of 2023, a reversal was made of a previously recognized impairment loss in electricity price zone 2 of SEK 59 million (-) as the write-down requirement no longer exists. During 2023, our process for identifying the expected electricity price has been updated. As an input for the electricity price, an average price is used based

on expectations of future electricity prices based on the Board's and Management's best estimate using external, independent, market data reports. The electricity price from the market data report forms the basis for estimation of the cash flow for the 2023-2030 period and an average growth rate of 1.5 percent (1.5) has subsequently been assumed. The yield requirement is 6 percent (6).

Estimated value in use of land leases, based on minimum rents, amounted on closing day to SEK 9 million (9). Depreciation for the period amounted to SEK 68 million (52). The increase was due to the reversal of previous impairment losses.

WALLENSTAM | INTERIM REPORT JAN 1 - SEP 30, 2023


DEFERRED TAX

A net deferred tax liability of SEK 6,009 million (5,963) is recognized in the balance sheet, which consists of a deferred tax asset of SEK 963 million (907) and a deferred tax liability of SEK 6,973 million (6,870) where SEK 6,402 million (6,393) relates to temporary differences in property investments and SEK 571 million (477) relates to derivative instruments, site leasehold rights and wind turbines.

FINANCING

Equity

Shareholders' equity amounted to SEK 31,257 million (31,432), which is equivalent to SEK 47.50 per share (47.70). The equity/assets ratio was 46 percent (47).

Interest-bearing liabilities

Wallenstam has 97 percent of its financing in the form of traditional loans from Swedish banks and the European Investment Bank. The remainder of the financing consists of commercial paper and bond loans.

On closing day, total interest-bearing liabilities amounted to SEK 29,184 million (28,283). Of the liability, outstanding bond loans amounted to SEK 334 million (890), and the book volume of commercial paper, with a framework amount of SEK 4,000 million, amounted to SEK 430 million (1,034). Total interest-bearing liabilities consist of SEK 10.9 billion (8.8) green financing, of which SEK 10.6 billion (7.9) of green loans and SEK 0.3 billion (0.9) of green bonds, issued according to the terms of Wallenstam's green framework and within Wallenstam's then MTN program (Medium Term Notes). The bond loans are listed on Nasdaq Stockholm.

The average remaining fixed interest term is 37 months (44). Wallenstam uses interest rate derivatives to obtain a desired interest maturity profile. The first interest rate derivative maturity will occur in 2025, see table below. Of the loan portfolio, 57 percent (59) of the loans have fixed interest terms longer than one year. On closing day, the average interest rate on our loans was 3.14 percent compared to 2.21 percent at year-end.

Financing of the loan portfolio is mainly secured by mortgage deeds for properties. The bond loans, commercial paper and the loan from the EIB are unsecured. The commercial paper program has underlying credit commitments in the form of overdraft facilities. Covenants are issued for the loan from the EIB.

Lease liability

The recognized lease liability corresponds to the rights of use for land leases and site leasehold rights. The liability on closing day totaled SEK 515 million (511).

Derivative instruments

Wallenstam's financial derivative instruments consist of interest rate derivatives. On closing day, Wallenstam had a net receivable in respect of derivative instruments of SEK 1,903 million compared to SEK 1,874 million as of December 31, 2022.

The total volume of outstanding interest rate derivatives, where Wallenstam pays fixed interest, amounts to SEK 16.0 billion (16.3).

Interest rate derivatives are measured through discounting future cash flows at present value. Arising deficit or surplus values for interest rate derivatives, which reflect how the Group's hedged interest rates relate to the market rate of interest on closing day, are recognized in the balance sheet and as changes in value, financial instruments in the income statement.

Available liquid assets

Available liquid assets, including available bank overdraft facilities, amounted to SEK 1,510 million (2,093), of which SEK 435 million is allocated as back up for issued outstanding commercial paper. During the quarter, Wallenstam has chosen to reduce the overdraft facilities. Approved overdraft facilities amounted to SEK 1,325 million (1,912), where SEK 90 million (-) was used on closing day.

OPPORTUNITIES & RISKS

Wallenstam’s opportunities and risks, and how we manage them, are presented in the 2022 Annual Report on pages 25–28. No significant changes in the management of these risks have occurred during 2023.

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS

As of September 30, 2023, the estimated market value of the properties amounted to around SEK 63 billion. A change in value of plus/minus 10 percent is thus equivalent to about plus/minus SEK 6.3 billion. A general change of plus/minus 0.25 percentage points in property yield requirements is equivalent to about plus/minus SEK 4 billion, while a general change in revenue of 5 percent is equivalent to about plus/minus SEK 3.6 billion.

A change in the interest rate of plus/minus 50 points is equivalent to about plus/minus SEK 63 million in interest expenses.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

Wallenstam’s related parties consist chiefly of Group and associated companies. Board members, company management and their families and the companies they control are also related parties. Transactions with related parties mainly consist of administrative fees and the renting of premises between Group and associated companies. Individuals related to Board members and the Group Management rent apartments and premises. Insurance services are purchased from companies where a member of Wallenstam’s Board of Directors is a Board member, for a total equivalent to about SEK 5 million in net expenditure for the year. The CEO is a joint owner (50 percent) of Aranea Holding AB. Aranea is a tenant of Wallenstam with an annual rental value equivalent to SEK 0.7 million.

A member of Wallenstam’s Board, through his own consulting company, sold consulting hours to Wallenstam for SEK 0.1 million.

Wallenstam’s involvement in environmental and social responsibility issues is described in more detail on pages 17–24 of the 2022 Annual Report. As part of its social responsibility work, the Wallenstam Group not only contributes financially to a number of organizations but also gives its time in the form of e.g. board work. As a result of such board positions, related party status arises in the case of the Rescue Mission in Gothenburg and Barn i Nöd (Swedish International Help for Children). During the year, the Rescue Mission in Gothenburg received contributions and discounts equivalent to SEK 3.3 million and Barn i Nöd received contributions of SEK 0.1 million. The Rescue Mission in Gothenburg and Barn i Nöd rent premises and apartments from Wallenstam equivalent to annual rental income of about SEK 6.4 million and SEK 0.1 million, respectively.

All transactions take place on market-related terms.

WALLENSTAM | INTERIM REPORT JAN 1 - SEP 30, 2023


Review report

To the Board of Directors of Wallenstam AB (publ)
Corp. id. 556072-1523

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Wallenstam AB (publ) as of 30 September 2023 and the nine-month period then ended. The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the 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 International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review of interim financial information 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 and other generally accepted auditing practices and consequently does 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, for the Group in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act, and for the Parent Company in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.
