Statement by the CEO
Continued expansion
"During the second quarter, Klövern has continued the expansion that started
during the first quarter with the acquisition of the listed real estate company
Dagon. In recent months, we have announced the acquisition of four properties
for more than SEK 900 million, of which three in Stockholm and one in
Gothenburg. Through this expansion, we have strengthened our position in the
metropolitan cities and acquired new modern properties with a good yield.
Klövern is focusing its efforts on filling vacancies, which can also be seen in
the net moving-in for the quarter, which is a SEK 15 million. We deliver a good
result for the first six months of the year. The operating margin was 64 per
cent, which is a high level for Klövern. Profit from property management, which
includes Dagon's earnings from March and onwards, has increased by 21 per cent.
Net profit for the period is also affected by changes in value of both
properties and derivatives. The continued decline of the fixed income market is
playing tricks on us here. Falling long-term interest rates during the quarter
mean a drop in the value of derivatives of almost SEK 100 million during the
same period. However, it should be borne in mind that derivatives should be
regarded as insurance and that there is an upside of SEK 336 million in
derivatives, which will affect the income statement and the balance sheet
positively until maturity.
After the end of the period we have acquired over five per cent of the shares in
Diös Fastigheter AB. This acquisition is a financial placement where the shares
in Diös served as the means of payment when Klövern sold repurchased common
shares and newly issued preference shares to the Federation of Swedish Farmers,
LRF", says Klövern's CEO Rutger Arnhult.
