Financial Performance Overview of EfTEN Real Estate Fund AS
In May, EfTEN Real Estate Fund AS reported a consolidated rental income of EUR 2,643 thousand, marking a EUR 33 thousand increase from April.

However, the consolidated EBITDA year-to-date stands at EUR 10.6 million, which is 2.7% lower than the previous year, primarily due to higher utility costs associated with vacant spaces within the office segments.
