COMMENTS FROM THE CEO

A high tempo in Nyfosa’s acquisition operations in the spring has yielded returns. We signed acquisition agreements for a value of slightly more than SEK 3.3 billion during and after the quarter. These properties have stable cash flows in prime locations, including a large retail property in Luleå. Nyfosa’s flexible strategy means that we can go against the tide and, in the current market, retail is a category where we see attractive opportunities in places and locations that we believe in. With a stronger cash position from the bond issue in May, we are continuing to analyze both large and small acquisitions as we continue towards our target property value of SEK 25 billion.
