- Gross profit from property management rose by 6 per cent to SEK 1,029 million (972). The increase can be attributed mainly to higher rental revenue.

- Profit after tax for the period was SEK 2,045 million (3,137), equivalent to SEK 9.91 per share (15.21). The decrease can be attributed mainly to lower unrealized changes in the value of the property holdings and the deferred tax recalculation the previous year following the reduction in corporation tax.
- The fair value of the property holdings was SEK 46.4 billion (44.1 at the turn of the year), resulting in a net asset value of SEK 179 per share (171 at the turn of the year). The unrealized change in the value of the property holdings for the period was SEK 1,700 million (2,467).
- The equity ratio was 62 per cent (63), the net loan-to-value ratio was 16 per cent (15), and the interest coverage ratio multiple was 11.4 (10.0).
