Carnegie & Co was announced Comment from the CEO D. Carnegie & Co – a focused residential property company with its aim set on continued growth The first half-year of 2014 has been very eventful for D. Carnegie & Co. The company was given a new operational direction after acquisition of, and contractual agreements to acquire, properties valued at a total of SEK 10 billion, a new share issue was completed and the company was listed on NASDAQ OMX First North. On February 27 we acquired a property portfolio valued at approximately SEK 3 billion from Stendörren Bostäder AB. This report thus only includes four months (March-June) with operational activities. In connection with the acquisition, we became a company with a clear focus on housing and an attractive property portfolio. The sights are from the start set on acquisitions of new properties, but also the refinement of the existing portfolio and the development of interesting projects – the three cornerstones of our business. The properties are strategically located in the so-called Million Programme areas, and demand for these homes has increased in step with the housing shortage. We feel a strong commitment to contribute to a favourable development of these areas, while we of course also see the commercial potential. In March, we took the next step when the board approved a listing of the company’s shares on NASDAQ OMX First North, and on April 9 this year, trading began. The share issue completed in connection with the listing raised a total of SEK 690 million before transaction costs, including the overallotment option. Investor interest was very high and the offer was oversubscribed several times in the process giving us 2,700 new shareholders. We are of course grateful for this confidence shown, and as we have many exciting opportunities ahead, we are confident that we can give good returns to our shareholders. On June 1 we signed a deal to acquire 9 300 apartments from a Norwegian-Swedish fund structure that makes D. Carnegie & Co the largest listed purely residential real estate company in Sweden. The properties are strategically placed and complements our current portfolio. The deal included Graflunds, an organisation with 50 years experience of property management, which will be responsible for the management of all of D. Carnegies properties. The deal was only completed on July 4 and will therefore not affect our reports until the third quarter of 2014. The deal also means that the company substantially exceeded its growth target in a short amount of time. ULF NILSSON CEO of D. Carnegie & Co For more information, please contact: Ulf Nilsson, VD +46 (0)8 121 317 00 Per-Axel Sundström, CFO +46 (0)8 121 317 00
