COMMENTS FROM THE CEO
Altra Fastigheter reports a second quarter with high activity in all parts of the business. Transactions totalling SEK 1.8 billion contributed to the communicated portfolio rotation. A large number of new leases resulted in positive net leasing of SEK 26 million during the quarter. Profit from property management amounted to SEK 1.99 per share, an increase of 23% compared with the second quarter of 2025.
Implementation of the company's updated strategy continues according to plan, and we are seeing gradual progress across all three strategic priorities – strengthened operational efficiency, reduced complexity and optimised capital allocation. During the quarter, the company also completed its rebranding to Altra Fastigheter, marking its updated strategy and long-term direction.
High leasing activity generates new rental income
For the second consecutive quarter, Altra reported positive net letting across all three markets. Overall, the net letting during the first half of the year amounted to SEK 51 million. This performance is a result of high letting activity, with 325 new lease agreements and 85 lease renewals completed, corresponding to 3.4 deals per business day. This demonstrates the strength of our regionally anchored property management model and the organisation’s ability to generate new business.
Following the end of the quarter, Altra's Finnish organisation Kielo, signed a new lease for previously vacant premises of 8,230sqm to the City of Helsinki through a 10-year lease agreement for school premises. Tenant improvements will commence immediately to enable the premises to accommodate up to 650 primary school students during the autumn school semester 2027. The lease has an annual rental value of SEK 34 million and will be recognised in net letting for the third quarter of 2026.
Portfolio rotation increases concentration and strengthens profitability
During the second quarter, Altra agreed property transactions totalling SEK 1.8 billion. One of these transactions was the divestment of four office properties in the Stockholm area for SEK 1.2 billion, transferring commercial properties with residential development potential to a specialised owner. The divestment releases capital and resources for investments where we see greater return potential, while also reducing the complexity of the portfolio.
In June, agreements were also signed for the acquisition of four properties for SEK 236 million and for the divestment of five properties for SEK 420 million. These transactions strengthen our position in three existing local markets while allowing us to exit two others. This form part of the ongoing portfolio rotation, which is gradually increasing portfolio concentration and strengthening profitability over time.
Improved financing terms through active refinancing
During the quarter, SEK 3 billion of interest-bearing debt was refinanced, resulting in a cost of SEK 8 million related to early redemption of existing debt. The refinancing nevertheless strengthens our funding through improved terms and extended debt maturity. The average interest margin was 1.62% as of 30 June, compared with 1.96% at the corresponding date in 2025. Following the end of the reporting period, a further SEK 3.8 billion of debt has been refinanced, contributing to a continued reduction in the company's average interest margin.
Strong financial flexibility supports continued capital allocation
Completed property divestments and refinancings have strengthened our financial flexibility. Together with the Annual General Meeting’s authorisations to resolve on share repurchases and the ability to issue new classes of shares, this provides us with greater capacity to act when investment opportunities arise.
Since the beginning of the year, Altra has acquired 8.5% of outstanding shares for a total consideration of SEK 1.2 billion. Share repurchases will continue to be evaluated as one of several alternatives for efficient capital allocation.
During the first six months of the year, we have taken tangible steps across all three of our strategic priorities. We will continue to execute this strategy with maintained discipline and a clear focus on sustainable growth in profitability. I look forward to an active second half of the year.
