Comments from the CEO – 2024 has been marked by a significant turnaround
After a challenging 2023, we have now seen positive changes in the market. Inflation has stabilized close to Sveriges Riksbank’s target of 2 percent. Interest rate cuts are following one another, and both the financial and real estate markets are showing signs of recovery.

We are still in a phase where patience is required, especially regarding our customers' behavior and uncertainties. Homebuyers have shown a more forward-leaning approach in the succession market in Stockholm, but the new-build market is experiencing some delay. However, there are clear indications that the developments are moving in the right direction, and the housing market continues to stabilize.

Improving Conditions in the Housing Market
As previously mentioned, our business operates with a certain level of inertia, where the efforts we make in one year often yield results in the following year. Therefore, the effects of the challenges faced in 2023 are reflected in our financial results for 2024. Throughout the year, we have only had limited production underway, with Vinkelhuset, as well as the demolition of the existing building at Fågelbärsträdet in preparation for the production start of Propellerhuset. This level of activity is not sufficient for Patriam, but the work our team has done on other projects, combined with the improvements we are now seeing in the housing market, provides us with strong conditions for 2025.

During 2024, we strengthened our position by acquiring a project with a unique waterfront location on Kvarnholmen. The acquisition occurred in January 2025 and will therefore not be reflected in the financial statements for the full year 2024. This acquisition presents new opportunities and enhances our portfolio with real estate projects that have short implementation times in the future.

Additionally, we recruited three new employees in 2024, which will help us develop our project portfolio at the desired pace and continue our expansion in line with our business strategy.

Strong Project Portfolio and Continued Growth
We have been advancing our projects toward production start and are now planning to have four to five projects in production during 2025: Vinkelhuset and House 6 on Lilla Essingen, Propellerhuset on Kungsholmen, and Kvarnholmen in Nacka, with more exciting potential projects on the horizon.

The progress of our project portfolio provides us with the right conditions to be profitable, competitive, and expansive. The result for 2024 amounted to a loss of MSEK 58,8, with a total balance sheet of MSEK 786,2.

2024 – A Turning Point
Our vision of building landmarks in Stockholm’s most attractive locations has now become a recognized success in the market. I look forward to seeing both Vinkelhuset and Propellerhuset come to life as the projects are completed in 2025 and early 2026, respectively. These are two unique projects, shaped by the characteristics of their locations, that meet our customers’ needs and expectations for what a premium residence should truly be.

If 2023 was a year of challenges, I would describe 2024 as the year the market turned, and we are now entering 2025 from a strong position. We have an exceptional project portfolio, a proactive and competent organization, and a future that looks increasingly bright.

A heartfelt thank you to Team Patriam, who tirelessly deliver beyond expectations and continue to achieve new successes, even when market conditions could have been more favorable.

Thank you for this year!
