Hemfosa Fastigheter takes first step into Norway – acquires six community service properties in Oslo at a total value of SEK 1.5 billion

In the opinion of Hemfosa Fastigheter, Norway offers interesting business
opportunities in the segment of community service properties – the strategically
most important category of properties in Hemfosa’s portfolio. The company is now
taking the first step into the Norwegian market through the acquisition of six
community service properties in the Oslo region for a price corresponding to SEK
1.5 billion.
The acquired properties are located in the municipalities of Skedsmo, Moss and
Fredrikstad in the eastern Oslo region and have an underlying property value of
SEK 1,475 million. The leasable area totals approximately 63,000 sqm. The
tenants comprise to 100-percent state-owned operations, with colleges, judicial
institutions and the police authority as the largest tenants. All properties are
fully leased and the average remaining lease term, calculated from year-end
2014, is 9.7 years. The seller is Entra ASA, with the State of Norway as the
largest owner.

“Our assessment is that Hemfosa has excellent potential to expand its business
to Norway within the framework of the current strategy. The acquisition from
Entra is a very good platform for further growth. During 2015, we intend to
assess the possibility of additional acquisitions in Norway with which to
supplement our portfolio of community service properties,” comments Hemfosa’s
CEO, Jens Engwall.
