In addition, Besqab would make a cash payment for any additional project costs up to the date of taking over.

Magnus Andersson, CEO of Besqab:
"Of the projects that Besqab acquired from ALM Equity in 2022, 8 projects remain that we have not yet taken over. The reason for the decision to withdraw these projects is partly that it is clear that the conditions for taking over for certain projects will not be met, and Besqab wants to prioritize other projects."
