Skanska invests SEK 565 M in four new logistics projects in Sweden and Denmark

Skanska has signed leases for four new logistics facilities - in Gothenburg,
Linköping and Burlöv (Sunnanå) in Sweden, and Stilling in Denmark. The total
investment amounts to approximately SEK 565 M. The contracts, which are separate
from each other, involve a total of 50,000 square meters, and were signed with
Scan, TransFargo, Freja Transport & Logistics, and an unnamed tenant.

The projects were launched in the third quarter of 2007. The occupancy date will
be around year-end 2008. All of the facilities are provided on long-term leases,
the average term being 12 years. The construction assignments will be performed
by Skanska Sweden and Skanska Denmark.

“We are pleased to note that our cutting-edge logistics expertise attracts
demanding customers. Winning four logistics contracts with successful tenants,
all in a brief period, shows that demand for this customized product has risen
sharply,” says Cecilia Fasth, President of Skanska Fastigheter Göteborg.

Skanska has over a considerable period accumulated extensive expertise in
development of logistics properties. Growth opportunities in this niche are
expected to be significant, and the operations are now also expanding into the
Danish market.

Skanska Commercial Development Nordic initiates and develops property projects
within offices, logistics and shopping centers. Office operations focus on the
three large metropolitan regions in Sweden, the Copenhagen region of Denmark and
Helsinki, Finland. The development of logistics facilities and volume retail
