"We are in a stable situation with a low loan-to-value ratio and good liquidity, which gives Annehem great opportunities for expansion through acquisitions that supplement our property portfolio. We have good conditions for investing in our existing portfolio with high returns. Our committed employees and I are looking forward to working further toward our challenging targets." says Monica Fallenius, CEO of Annehem Fastigheter.  

Significant events during the period

• Annehem has extended a lease with a tenant in Finland with a maturity of five years. In connection with the lease extension, rented spaces will be optimized and tailored to the tenant's current needs.

Significant events after the end of the period

• Annehem revises financial targets.

Revised financial targets

Annehem has remained stable since its listing in 2020 and has navigated through a challenging macroeconomic environment in recent years. The company's conservative financial approach, relying solely on bank financing, has proven crucial in a high-interest rate environment, contributing to stability combined with sustainable and profitable growth.

Considering the changed macroeconomic environment, Annehem is now turning its focus to cash flow and profitability, utilizing the capital generated by the business to achieve organic growth through acquisitions and investments in our existing portfolio.  

"Our revised financial targets are challenging and highlight our continued focus on growth. With a strong cash flow, we are prioritising growing organically, thereby creating shareholder value without jeopardising our financial position." says Monica Fallenius, VD Annehem Fastigheter.

Annehem's financial targets and dividend policy will be:

• Annual growth in income from property management of a least 20 percent
• Annual growth in EPRA net reinstatement value (NRV) of at least 10 percent
• Net loan-to-value ratio over time that does not exceed 55 percent
• Long-term interest-coverage ration that exceeds a multiple of 2.2
• Primarily reinvest profits in order to utilise business opportunities and achieve Annehem's growth targets

The report will be presented at 11:00 a.m. CEST on October 24 by CEO Monica Fallenius and CFO Adela Colakovic. The presentation will be held in Swedish.
