Wihlborgs Fastigheter

Ulrika Hallengren, CEO of Wihlborgs, comments on the third quarter:

“To summarise the third quarter for Wihlborgs, we continued to sign new leases with exciting customers, we continued to invest in new and existing portfolios and we continued to focus on our cash flow. Together, these activities have generated good results over time.”

“Net lettings for the quarter amounted to a positive SEK 28 million, with new lettings of an entire SEK 96 million, a record high for the third quarter. New agreements were also signed at higher rent levels than agreements that have been terminated, which supports a positive market rent trend. Rental income increased 7 percent in the third quarter to SEK 1.043 million, which is the highest figure to date for income in a single quarter. But despite a higher interest expense, income from property management increased 3 percent to SEK 445 million.”

“One important event for us was that once again in 2024, Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark’s ESG evaluation ranked us as number one among listed diversified property companies in Europe. We also signed an agreement with Handelsbanken for a sustainability-linked loan, where specific energy intensity targets and direct and indirect CO2 impact, Scopes 1-3, will be evaluated annually. This will allow us to highlight how our operations impact the climate now and in the future, and how we are focusing on reducing our CO2 emissions.”
