"We leave a strong first half year behind us, with an increase in underlying net operating income for the comparable portfolio of 7%, both completed and newly started projects and completed acquisitions.
The acquisitions shall be seen in the light of the fact that we again see acquisitions as an important complement to organic growth. The market offers attractive acquisition opportunities and we are currently evaluating a number of exciting acquisitions.
With the attractive acquisition opportunities, strong project pipeline, an adjusted capital structure and normalized interest rates, our focus is now to accelerate growth in Stendörren."
