Interim report January – June 2016


– During the second quarter of the year, the project portfolio experienced a
high rate of growth, says Fredrik Lidjan, CEO of Magnolia Bostad. We grew by
around 1,500 apartments since the end of the first quarter of 2016 and now have
more than 9,000 planned apartments in the portfolio, which constitutes an
increase of almost 60 percent over a 12-month period. Through the acquisitions
we made during the quarter, we also established ourselves in two new cities,
Södertälje and Åkersberga.
The second quarter, April – June:

  · Operating profit/loss: SEK 115.4 million (53.8)
  · Profit/loss after tax: SEK 86.2 million (37.2)
  · Earnings per share: SEK 1.71 (0.86)

Six months, January – June:

  · Operating profit/loss: SEK 214.8 million (199.8)
  · Profit/loss after tax: SEK 172.0 million (175.9)
  · Earnings per share: SEK 3.72 (4.53)

Operating profit for Q1 2015 was positively impacted by approximately SEK 153
million as a result of the revaluation of the Senapsfabriken project during the
transfer from associated company to subsidiary.

Significant events during the quarter

  · Acquisition of building rights for around 700 apartments in central
Södertälje. The company at the same time sells to SPP Fastigheter 436 rental
apartments that will be developed in the project’s first phase.
  · Sale of 454 rental apartments in the Senapsfabriken project, phase 1
Uppsala, to SEB’s residential fund Domestica III.
  · Sale of more than 300 rental apartments in the Tegelslagaren and
Tegelmästaren projects in Vallentuna to SEB’s residential fund Domestica II. The
transaction is conditional on the buyer’s financing and the revenue has thus not
been recognized.
  · Acquisition of the Senapsfabriken project, phase 3 in Uppsala. Magnolia
Bostad will pursue the local plan to develop the building rights for the
property and intends to build an additional 700 apartments.
  · Magnolia Bostad wins another two land allocation competitions, one in the
new neighborhood in Örebro Municipality, Södra Ladugårdsängen, and one in
Åkersberga in Österåker Municipality. The land allocations refer to a total of
410 apartments.
  · The company has reserved around SEK 28 million in the Nyby Lilium project in
Uppsala during the quarter as the company and the Municipality have made
different interpretations of the local plan, which resulted in a lower degree of
development than previously estimated.
  · Issue of a secured bond loan for SEK 600 million with an interest rate of
STIBOR 3m +6.25 percent, which has been admitted for trading on Nasdaq First
North Bond Market.
  · Employment of additional 12 staff members.
