Ulrika Hallengren, CEO of Wihlborgs, comments on the fourth quarter:
"Rental income for the fourth quarter amounted to SEK 1.059 million, up 9 percent year-on-year and a new record high for income in a single quarter. Income from property management increased a full 23 percent to SEK 452 million now that we are seeing the effects of falling market interest rates. These figures once again demonstrate Wihlborgs' capacity to generate a strong cash flow."
"We also posted positive net lettings, up SEK 13 million, for yet another quarter, and where the varied range of the leases reflects our capacity to meet very different needs for workplaces. Many of the larger leases we signed during the year will generate full income at the end of 2025 and during 2026, with the effect that the occupancy rate is then expected to rise slightly again."
"Our energy consumption and our CO2 emissions declined during the year thanks to initiatives like operating optimisation, energy savings projects and transitioning to energy sources with lower climate impact. I am also pleased to note that we achieved our certification target of 90 percent one year early. Nonetheless, the certification work will continue apace, for example by certifying additional existing properties in various segments in Sweden as well as Denmark."
