COMMENTS FROM THE CEO

Nyfosa is continuing to deliver on our commitments – to grow through acquisitions and build up strong, sustainable cash flows. The trend of positive net leasing continued in the second quarter of 2021. Our regional cities are witnessing a high level of activity, we experience that many of our tenants have a positive view of the future and demand for premises remains stable.

We recently made a clear impression on Nyfosa’s new market, Finland, by completing acquisitions for a total of SEK 2.3 billion. These are properties with stable tenants in growing regional cities that provide a solid platform for our continued growth in Finland. We also acquired a portfolio in Norrland during the quarter that supplements our portfolio well, and in addition a number of small deals.

Nyfosa will continue to grow and we can see attractive business opportunities going forward, particularly in Finland. With Nyfosa’s first green bond and a directed share issue, we have strengthened our financial preparedness so that we can act quickly when we identify the right transactions. Investors have shown widespread interest, and naturally we are delighted that our opportunistic business model focusing on strong cash flows is appreciated.
