Interim Report January - September 2021

Rise in property value and income from property management

John Mattson acquired and took possession of shares in the property companies HEFAB Fastighets AB (Hefab) and EFIB Aktiebolag (Efib) in the third quarter. As a result, John Mattson now has shareholdings of slightly more than 97% in Hefab and almost 100% in Efib. Property value increased SEK 5.6 billion in the quarter and amounted to SEK 14.2 billion at the end of September. The increase was largely attributable to the acquisitions of Hefab and Efib. One of our long-term goals, namely for the Group’s property value to amount to at least SEK 10 billion by the end of 2023, has now been achieved.

“John Mattson has recorded strong growth in the past months and is now established in several attractive submarkets in the Stockholm region. Our focus over the immediate future will be on establishing high quality property management, preparing to add value and develop the newly acquired portfolios and developing a larger John Mattson together with Hefab’s employees. Work with the integration of both companies is ongoing,” says John Mattson’s CEO, Siv Malmgren.

Over the past 12 months, income from property management per share increased 15%, and the net asset value per share rose 36%. The increase in net asset value was partially due to the acquisition of the shares in Hefab and Efib, but was also due to unrealised value changes stemming from changed yield requirements. John Mattson’s goal is for an average annual increase in income from property management per share of at least 10% and NAV growth per share of at least 10%.
