Comments from Hufvudstaden's President, Anders Nygren.
"2024 was yet another year characterised by a weak economy, but Hufvudstaden still successfully delivered a 6 per cent increase in gross profit from property management. Our financial position is strong and there are great opportunities to continue developing operations to create increased shareholder value.
We summarise the year and are pleased with the great interest Kvarteret Johanna has garnered in Gothenburg. Several office leases have been signed with strong companies. The office market in Stockholm City was stable, though the letting processes were more protracted. Recovery in the retail sector will take time, unfortunately, but we are discerning several positive signs. Several brands see opportunities to establish themselves in attractive marketplaces in order to meet the improved purchasing power of households during 2025."
