SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE THIRD QUARTER

• In July, Stendörren signed a lease agreement with Stockholms Stadsmission regarding logistics premises of 3,161 sqm in Brunna, Upplands Bro.
• In September 2023, Stendörren established a Green Finance Framework and issued green bonds at a nominal amount of SEK 500 million with a tenor of 3.25 years at a floating rate of Stibor 90 plus 5.25%. In connection with this, an outstanding bond of SEK 700 million, with final maturity in April 2024, were redeemed.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE PERIOD

• Stendörren signed a ten-year lease agreement with Advania Sverige AB for a 9,500 sqm logistics facility at the Stenvreten 8:37 property in Enköping, with possession of the premises expected to take place on January 1, 2025. After signing the lease with Advania Sverige AB, the facility is fully let. A building permit has been obtained and preparatory work ahead of new construction has already begun.

“We are proud to continue to deliver increased rental income and net operating income, by 17 and 24 percent, respectively, despite a downturn in the economy. In addition, we continue to increase rents through renegotiations, by a total of 24 per cent for the renegotiated leases, despite the fact that we have already made substantial inflation-related rent increases at the beginning of the year.

We have also had strong progress in our project development operations, where we have completed seven projects totaling approximately 35,000 sqm, most of which are fully let. Ongoing and recently completed projects that have not yet generated revenue are expected to add approximately SEK 80 million to net operating income in following leasing and completion.

We have continued to strengthen our financial position. We repurchased part of a hybrid bond during the first quarter and during this quarter we refinanced a bond with a new green bond, albeit at a lower volume, with the effect that we reduced our capital market funding by approximately half a billion during the year. At the same time, we continue to have strong liquidity, which provides us with flexibility, both to develop our business and, if necessary, to take measures to reduce financial risk.”
