Logistea reports increasing income, net operating income and profit from property management, both for the period but also for the quarter. We continue to have a strong predictability in our cash flow even in a changing financing climate. Our average borrowing rate decreased by 0.1 percentage points in the quarter following completed repurchases in our own bond loan. Furthermore, we will strengthen our financial position further through the right issue Logistea’s Board resolved upon today, and we can continue with repurchases of bond loans, acquire more properties in line with our growth ambition and focus on value-adding investments in our current property portfolio, says CFO Philip Löfgren.
