Comment from Hans Wallenstam, CEO:
"All of Wallenstam's numbers are looking better, income from property management is going up, net operating income is increasing and the surplus ratio is back at the levels that we saw before the electricity prices soared. Net financial items are lower, but we see a turnaround as the average interest rate has gone down to 3.17 percent on closing day compared to 3.27 percent in Q1. The results show that Wallenstam's business is working very well!"
"I am very happy that we have started the construction of just over 400 apartments in Årstaberg in Stockholm. We hope to be able to start more projects both in Stockholm and Gothenburg during the fall. Demand for our apartments is very good, which reflects the severe prevailing housing shortage in the areas we operate in but it is also a confirmation that we are offering the right products in the right locations."
