Klövern has signed an agreement on the acquisition of a property portfolio
comprising 37 properties in Linköping, Norrköping and Örebro. The purchase price

"At last, one might say. It feels pleasant to be able to state that the property
market is getting back on form and that Klövern has the strength and muscle to
re-enter a growth phase," says Klövern's CEO Gustaf Hermelin. "The portfolio
offers potential and our staff with their firm local base are ready to serve
existing tenants and to fill the vacant premises with new clients."
The acquisition comprises 37 properties with a total area of 157,000 sq. m. Of
these properties 31 are situated in Linköping, four in Norrköping and two in
Örebro. The purchase price amounts to SEK 1,055 million, the initial direct
yield is 6.5 per cent and the economic occupancy rate is 74 per cent. The vendor
is the Valad Property Group.
This acquisition strengthens Klövern's presence in three priority cities. The
properties supplement existing portfolios and Klövern will be the market leader
in commercial properties in Linköping. After taking over the properties Klövern
will have 248 properties with a total area of 1,527,000 sq. m. valued at SEK
13,0 billion.
