Significant events after the end of the period
In October, an agreement was reached with two of the Group’s current banks to refinance loans of approximately SEK 1,800 million. The newly agreed credit margins are lower than the loan portfolio’s average credit margin and the agreements run for just over two and three years, respectively, with options to extend for a further two years. All else being equal, the new terms entail an annual reduction of approximately SEK 7 million in interest expenses.
Per 5 November the Board of KlaraBo updated the Group’s strategic targets for the coming strategy period.
From Andreas Morfiadakis’ CEO comment:
“KlaraBo’s operations are continuing to develop in a positive direction, primarily due to this year’s rent negotiations and continuous upgrades of the apartments in our property portfolio. Rental revenue and net operating income both increased around 7 per cent in the third quarter, compared to the previous year, driven by higher revenue as well as efficient management and ongoing cost control.
The transaction market for residential properties is opening up more and more, and we are continuing to actively identify acquisition opportunities that provide stable ongoing returns, where we can add value through active management and improvements. The Riksbank’s key interest rate cuts are resulting in more favourable acquisition calculations and improved opportunities for continued value creation by upgrading existing apartments. This is creating value for our tenants as well as our shareholders.”
