Interim Report

JANUARY 1–SEPTEMBER 30,2024

"After a challenging time last year for Wallenstam, I can confirm that most things started to turn around in 2024 and this report shows that this trend is continuing. Our income from property management and net operating income are increasing again, the average interest rate has also fallen this quarter and on closing day the average interest rate was 2.95 percent, and the equity/assets ratio remains strong."

"For many years, we have felt that it would be natural for us to develop the commercial segment in Stockholm, since we own residential properties in both Gothenburg and Stockholm as well as commercial properties in central Gothenburg. Now we think that the timing is right and we will let our three-leaf clover become a fourleaf clover! The first stage in our new commercial segment venture in Stockholm's CBD was to sign an agreement the other week to acquire the scraper next to Sergels Torg square, the 5th Hötorget scraper. A unique building with great potential!"

Comments by the CEO

fter a challenging time last year for Wallenstam, I can confirm that most things started to turn around in 2024 and this report shows that this trend is continuing. Our income from property management and net operating income are increasing again, the average interest rate has also fallen this quarter and on closing day the average interest rate was 2.95 percent, and the equity/assets ratio remains strong.

We estimate that the yield requirements on our properties are unchanged. But the property market is starting to come to life, not least because the long-term interest rate is slowly falling. This means that we will certainly see positive changes in value going forward.

New commercial segment in Stockholm's CBD

Our strong financial position is the basis for our freedom of action, enabling us to refine our properties, start new construction projects and to also now set a new strategy for the business: a new commercial property venture in central Stockholm! For many years, we have felt that it would be natural for us to develop the commercial segment in Stockholm, since we own residential properties in both Gothenburg and Stockholm as well as commercial properties in central Gothenburg. Now we think that the timing is right and we will let our three-leaf clover become a four-leaf clover!

We are not just a property owner but also an urban and site developer with extensive knowledge and experience of developing both new and existing areas. In Gothenburg, there are many good examples of how we contribute to a vibrant streetscape with good conditions for our commercial tenants to successfully conduct their business. Now when we are starting a new commercial segment in central Stockholm also, we are bringing with us all the knowledge and experience we have built up, to be able to offer attractive premises in areas that people want to work in and visit.

Strong commitment

It can be said that 2024 is generally tougher for Sweden, both for

companies and individuals. The fight against inflation has meant higher interest rates, which are now slowly falling as inflation declines. But this also means that companies with businesses aimed at private consumption are having a tough time. Our vacancies in the commercial holdings are still being kept at a satisfactory level. Part of the reason is that we are careful to maintain close contact with our customers, and that we focus on location, location, location of our properties. Our commercial offer and our commitment are paying off even in the more sluggish current market, and we are also bringing this with us in our new commercial segment venture in Stockholm.

Almost 1,400 apartments under construction

This year, we started three construction projects, which feels really great! When we add up our construction starts – 408 apartments in Årstaberg in Stockholm, 50 apartments in Älta Torg in Nacka and 119 apartments on Åbybergsgatan in Mölndal – to those already under construction, we have a total of 1,379 apartments in ongoing projects right now. As a socially engaged company, we want to help provide new homes and to do so at a time of great housing need is of course particularly important.

Even for our housing projects, we are extremely careful about the location. To be sure that we can rent out our apartments, we must ensure that we build where people really want to live. There are some concerning population statistics and reports of empty apartments in certain places, but we can say that demand is strong in our attractive residential areas in both Stockholm and Gothenburg. We currently have about 250,000 applicants in our register.

Attractive locations most profitable over time

As I said, Wallenstam is a company that prioritizes the location, even if the locations we want generate a lower return initially than less attractive locations. But we believe that over time it is most profitable to invest in the most attractive locations, and Wallenstam as a company of course has the opportunity, due to our knowledge capital and strong financial position, to operate over a long time horizon.

Acquiring the scraper next to Sergels Torg

The first stage in our new commercial segment venture in Stockholm's CBD was to sign an agreement the other week to acquire the scraper next to Sergels Torg square, the 5th Hötorget scraper. A unique building with great potential! We want to create really modern, attractive premises here for offices, retail and restaurants, in a welcoming environment for both tenants and visitors. All our knowledge and experience in project development, site development and commercial letting will come in handy!

Exciting times ahead

To deliver a result with numbers that again point in the right direction, to also now start a new commercial segment in Stockholm's CBD and to have the privilege of acquiring Stockholm's most iconic building – this is big news! Exciting and interesting times lie ahead for Wallenstam, and I am really looking forward to this!

Comments on the consolidated income statement

JULY 1–SEPTEMBER 30

Rental income in the third quarter amounted to SEK 730 million (697), an increase of almost 5 percent or SEK 32 million, of which SEK 19 million came from increases in comparable holdings. Newly constructed properties and completed larger projects added SEK 18 million comparatively and divestments reduced rental income by SEK 5 million.

Operating expenses were, as usual, comparatively lowest in the third quarter and amounted to SEK 153 million (151), an increase of SEK 2 million. The largest difference came from lower electricity prices in 2024, which were just over 30 percent lower compared to 2023. However, rates for water and sanitation and cleaning have increased, as have property maintenance expenses. Net operating income increased by just over 5 percent and amounted to SEK 576 million (546), which corresponds to a surplus ratio in the quarter of 79.0 percent (78.3).

Net financial items investment properties amounted to SEK -191 million (-183). The average interest rate in the quarter was in line with the same quarter last year and amounted to 3.08 percent (3.05). The average interest rate on closing day was 2.95 percent, which was 22 points lower than the end of the second quarter of 2024. The average interest rate was positively affected by falling Stibor and by new swap agreements entered into during the quarter totaling SEK 1.4 billion.

Changes in value of properties amounted to SEK -22 million (-188). No changes to yield requirements have been made during the quarter.

The value of interest rate derivatives developed negatively during the period, SEK -432 million (112), due to falling interest rate levels.

JANUARY 1–SEPTEMBER 30

Income from property management amounted to SEK 880 million (828). Profit after tax for the period amounted to SEK 139 million (42), which corresponds to earnings per share of SEK 0.2 (0.1).

Rental income

Rental income has increased by SEK 151 million, 7 percent, compared to the same quarter of the previous year and amounted to SEK 2,187 million (2,036). Most of the increase, SEK 83 million, was generated in comparable holdings, primarily through rent increases from indexations and rent negotiations. Almost as large a proportion, SEK 79 million, came from properties added mainly through new construction. Divestments reduced rental income by SEK 12 million. Wallenstam's revenue is evenly distributed between residential properties and commercial premises, where there is a slight preponderance of residential.

Agreed adjustments for commercial premises have meant average increases of 6 percent and apply from January 1. This year's rent negotiations for residential properties have been completed. For the Group, the agreed rent negotiations correspond to an average rent increase for residential of approximately 4.5 percent.

Operating expenses and 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.

Operating expenses for the period amounted to SEK 501 million (518) and were lower than the previous year despite more properties

RENTAL INCOME AND INCOME FROM PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

NET OPERATING INCOME AND SURPLUS RATIO

*Latest rolling twelve-month period

under management. This was mainly explained by lower electricity expenses, which were almost 40 percent or SEK 50 million lower in comparable holdings compared to the same period last year as the electricity prices were comparatively high in 2023. However, rates and charges for water and sanitation and cleaning, are higher. Weather-related expenses were SEK 3 million higher during the period compared to the same period in the previous year.

Net operating income increased by SEK 168 million. The surplus ratio amounted to 77.1 percent (74.6).

Central management and administration

Central management and administration amounted to SEK 238 million (237), which mostly related to property management of SEK 221 million (218).

Participation in profits/losses of associated companies

Participation in profits/losses of associated companies consist of participations in profits/losses and value adjustments, and totaled SEK -152 million (-2), of which impairment losses amounted to SEK -149 million (-). The impairments related to the holdings in Convendum and Colive, and are a consequence of the current market situation for coworking in Stockholm and coliving in Sweden. The remaining value of the holdings in Convendum amounts to SEK 184 million.

Financial income and expenses

Financial income amounted to SEK 6 million (3) and financial expenses totaled SEK -639 million (-510). Net financial items are distributed among investment properties in operation SEK -585 million (-472), expensed project-related interest SEK -19 million (-6) and other SEK -29 million (-28), which mainly related to wind power and financial investments. Capitalized interest amounted to SEK 92 million (98).

The average debt was SEK 0.9 billion higher than year-end. The average interest rate was higher than the previous year but lower than the end of the second quarter of 2024 and was 3.20 percent, compared to 2.76 percent in the same period last year.

Other income and other expenses

Other income and other expenses mainly includes the Group's profit from electricity generation from our wind turbines, see Notes 2 and 3.

Other income amounted to SEK 180 million (229) and other expenses totaled SEK -168 million (-132). The decrease in income was mainly due to a much lower electricity price compared to the same period last year when the electricity price was comparatively high. Since the Group is a net producer of electricity, the lower income is also offset by lower electricity costs within operating expenses for our investment properties. Electricity generated has increased during the period and amounted to 208 GWh (200).

Changes in value, investment properties

The change in value during the period amounted to SEK -44 million (-793).

The average yield requirements on closing day, which refer to the

properties owned on each closing day, were unchanged compared to the previous quarter and amounted to 4.6 percent for the commercial holdings and to 3.6 percent for residential properties in operation.

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 negatively during the period, SEK -336 million (29), as a result of falling interest rate levels. On closing day, the 10-year swap rate amounted to 2.22 percent, compared to 2.34 percent at the start of the year.

Change in value synthetic options

Wallenstam has an ongoing synthetic options scheme which is directed to all permanent employees. Change in value synthetic options amounted to SEK -14 million (-29) due to a positive development of Wallenstam's share price in 2024. The number of outstanding options on closing day amounted to 6,025,000.

Tax

Recognized tax for the period amounted to SEK -139 million (-53) net, of which SEK -139 million (-53) was deferred tax and SEK 0 million (0) was current tax.

In the second quarter, construction started of 408 apartments in Årstaberg, Stockholm, and in the third quarter, construction started of 119 apartments on Åbybergsgatan, Mölndal, as well as 50 apartments and a cultural center in Älta, Nacka Municipality. In addition, the first 28 apartments in the Nacka Grace project in Nacka were completed and let. New construction projects in progress on closing day involve 1,379 apartments.

Investments during the period totaled SEK 1,700 million (1,880), of which SEK 1,699 million (1,813) in investment properties and SEK 1 million (67) in development properties. The total value of rental apartment and development projects in progress, including land and projects for future new construction, amounted to SEK 5.3 billion (5.1) on closing day.

As of September 30, two of the terraced houses in Mölnlycke and eight of the terraced houses in Österåker have been taken into possession.

Valuation

INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

Wallenstam measures all of its investment properties internally at fair value on a quarterly basis. As an active actor in the property market, with long experience, we enjoy good market and property intelligence, 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 our assessments of property values, we use different yield requirements for different properties. The yield requirements reflect market conditions and differ based on where the property is located and what type of property it is (housing or offices, etc.).

A valuation is calculated based on each property's net operating income including site leasehold rent, 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 construction is gradually recognized during the construction period. In view of the increased uncertainty that exists in the market, no gradual value growth is currently recognized for new construction.

Land rights and building rights for future new construction 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.

ACQUISITION, CONSTRUCTION AND SALES OF INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

Financing

Equity

Shareholders' equity amounted to SEK 30,431 million (30,500), which is equivalent to SEK 46.40 per share (46.40). The equity/ assets ratio was 45 percent (46).

Interest-bearing liabilities

Wallenstam has approximately 95 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 30,016 million (29,075). Of the liability, outstanding bond loans amounted to SEK 1,000 million (334), which were issued in the first half of 2024, and the book volume of commercial paper, with a framework amount of SEK 4,000 million, amounted to SEK 655 million (373). Total interest-bearing liabilities consist of SEK 12.9 billion (10.8) green financing, of which SEK 11.9 billion (10.5) of green loans and SEK 1.0 billion (0.3) of green bonds.

All the bond loans of SEK 1,000 million (334) are green bonds according to the terms of Wallenstam's green framework and were issued within Wallenstam's MTN program (Medium Term Notes). The bond loans are listed on Nasdaq Stockholm.

The average fixed interest term is 38 months (40). Of the loan portfolio, 58 percent (57) of the loans have fixed interest terms longer than one year. The average interest rate on closing day amounted to 2.95 percent compared to the previous quarter, when it was 3.17 percent.

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 for the loan to be unsecured.

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 596 million (544).

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 665 million compared to SEK 1,000 million as of December 31, 2023.

In the third quarter of 2024, new swap agreements of SEK 1.4 billion were entered into with an average maturity of 7.5 years. The total volume of outstanding interest rate derivatives, where Wallenstam pays fixed interest, subsequently amounts to SEK 17.4 billion (16.0). The first maturity is in 2026.

Interest rate derivatives are used to obtain a desired interest maturity profile in a flexible, cost-efficient way. They 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 1,943 million (1,285), of which SEK 662 million is reserved for back up for issued outstanding commercial paper. Approved overdraft facilities amounted to SEK 1,800 million (1,325), where no portion (90) was used on closing day.

Customer and market

The cities in which we do business are characterized by growth and heavy demand for housing and commercial premises. We build mainly rental apartments, but also cooperative apartments, when there is a need for mixed forms of tenure.

The residential property holdings are fully let. Only a minor proportion of our rental apartments become available for rent due to relocation, and demand for finished, newly constructed rental apartments is high.

The average agreed rent increase for residential properties for the Group amounts to approximately 4.5 percent in total for 2024. We have also agreed on the rent increases for 2025, which are on a par with 2024.

We see that demand for commercial floor space in central Gothenburg is still stable. Some sluggishness in the market can be seen in the form of, for instance longer decision-making times among existing and potential customers. The 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 90 percent (89) for the quarter. The occupancy rate for commercial in terms of lettable area amounted to 92 percent (91) on closing day. In Gothenburg, where the majority of the commercial floor space is located, the occupancy rate is 94 percent (93).

For commercial premises, agreed adjustments have meant average increases of 6 percent that apply from January 1.

To offer the right office to the right customer, we offer office solutions in three concepts:

  • Ready to go offices ready for occupation with flexible contract terms.
  • Synergy ready-made office solutions with small adaptations.
  • Signature customized premises reflecting the customer's brand. At Kaserntorget 6, we have recently designed "ready-to-go" premises, which have become very popular. The premises are fitted out with, for example meeting technology, alarm systems as well as fully furnished and equipped conference rooms for customers that wish to move in quickly.

Wallenstam's sustainability work

Climate targets 2023–2030

Wallenstam's climate targets in scope 1 and 2 are adopted and validated by the climate action partnership - The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). In scope 3, a voluntary target has been defined, according to the Science Based Targets initiative's methodology. Wallenstam reports reduced carbon dioxide emissions in all targeted areas, which is a result of structured and dedicated sustainability work in the business. The outcome is reported annually.

Corporate social responsibility

We want to offer safe and secure housing and premises for tenants, as well as safe and secure workplaces for employees and suppliers. To ensure that we only support those companies that conduct their business responsibly, we follow a routine which means that Wallenstam with the help of an external supplier, carries out comprehensive background checks that review the companies' finances and identify any links to criminality and work environment deficiencies. Collaboration is only initiated with those suppliers and tenants that meet our requirements, which will hopefully lead to increased safety and security among employees, suppliers and tenants.

We also focus on increasing security for residential and commercial tenants. Our security department and management department work with the "secure properties" concept where each property is inventoried from a security perspective and any deficiencies are rectified according to planned actions. Collaboration with tenants, other property owners and authorities may also be relevant.

Green premises

At Kaserntorget 6 in Gothenburg, a conscious effort has been made to create offices with a lower climate impact. All the leases are green, where both the landlord and the tenant undertake to reduce their environmental and climate impact. The property has been tastefully renovated with reuse in focus. Existing material has been reused as much as possible and layouts have been preserved. What could not be reused was handed over to an external recycling operator. The premises offer the customer a comprehensive solution, which means that no major reconstructions are required in connection with any relocations. To promote biological diversity in the city, insect hotels, bird nesting boxes, bird baths and growing greenery have been placed on the property's biotope roof.

Recycled textiles

Part of our sustainability work is to help tenants make environmentally friendly choices. The textile industry accounts for a significant proportion of global emissions and to reduce these emissions, recycling and reuse of textiles is a key measure. Therefore, Wallenstam in collaboration with Human Bridge has placed recycling containers in 25 properties where tenants can hand in their old clothes and textiles. In 2024, our tenants have so far collected 28 tons of textiles, which is an increase of almost 65 percent compared to last year.

During 2024, Wallenstam has reported to the ESG rating agencies below. The results are available on each company's website.

  • The S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment

RISK MANAGEMENT

Wallenstam's risks, and how we manage them, are presented in the 2023 Annual Report on pages 22–24. No significant changes in the management of these risks have occurred during 2024.

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS

As of September 30, 2024, the estimated market value of the properties amounted to around SEK 65 billion. A change in value of plus/minus 10 percent is thus equivalent to about plus/minus SEK 6.5 billion. A general change of plus/minus 0.25 percentage points in property yield requirements is equivalent to about SEK -3.7 billion to SEK +4.2 billion, while a general change in revenue of 5 percent is equivalent to about plus/minus SEK 3.7 billion.

A change in the market interest rate of plus/minus 50 points is equivalent to about plus/minus SEK 61 million in interest expenses.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

Wallenstam's related parties consist chiefly of Group 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 companies. Individuals related to Board members and 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 0.9 million.

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

The Convendum and Colive groups, where Wallenstam's Chairman is a board member of each parent company, have an agreed rent for the year 2024 totaling SEK 53 million and SEK 11 million, respectively. In addition to the tenancy, there is an outstanding promissory note receivable of SEK 58 million in relation to the Convendum group. During the year, Wallenstam has participated in two new issues in Convendum totaling SEK 50 million. Companies in the Wallenstam Group have entered into a guarantee commitment for companies in the Colive group of SEK 4.3 million.

Ferroamp AB and Mertzig Asset Management AB, where Wallenstam's Chairman is a board member, have agreed rents for the year 2024 of SEK 5.3 million and SEK 1.0 million, respectively. During the year, Wallenstam has participated in a new issue in Ferroamp of SEK 6 million.

Wallenstam's involvement in environmental and social responsibility issues is described in more detail on pages 15–21 of the 2023 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 3.5 million. The Rescue Mission in Gothenburg and Barn i Nöd rent premises and apartments from Wallenstam equivalent to annual rental income of SEK 8.0 million and SEK 0.1 million, respectively.

All transactions take place on market-related terms.

Review report

Translation from the Swedish original

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 2024 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.
