Statement by the CEO
Sharp increase in profit
"Klövern has achieved a sharp improvement in profit from property management
during 2009. While this can be explained to a large extent by the extremely low
level of interest rates, Klövern's low risk profile and dedicated personnel are
also important contributory factors. To date, Klövern has not been particularly
greatly affected by the downturn, which has left its mark on the general state
of the economy. The occupancy rate fell marginally at the start of the year,
rental levels are stable and property values are holding up, which is shown not
least by the property sales carried out by Klövern during the year.
Future years will undoubtedly be tough from the point of view of the business
cycle. However, Klövern's good foundations provide a basis for further
value-creating investments in existing and new properties during 2010. The
downturn can give rise to exciting new business opportunities where Klövern can
play a part in creating the communities of the future", says Klövern's CEO
Gustaf Hermelin.
