Kungsleden acquires properties for SEK 3 bn and creates new inner city cluster in Stockholm

Kungsleden acquires four properties on Gärdet-Frihamnen and one in Hammarby
Sjöstad, both Stockholm city districts, for SEK 3 billion and thereby creates a
new inner city cluster. The leasable area totals 96,000 sqm.
Kungsleden AB (publ) strengthens its position on the office market in Stockholm
by acquiring four properties on Gärdet-Frihamnen and one property in Hammarby
Sjöstad, both districts within the Stockholm inner city borders. The properties
Rotterdam 1, Tegeludden 13, Stettin 5 and Stettin 6 are located on Gärdet
-Frihamnen, while Godsvagnen 9 is located in Hammarby Sjöstad. Larger tenants
include the Swedish Customs, the Swedish Fortifications Agency, Biz Apartment,
Axfood and Procter & Gamble. The rent value amounts to SEK 200 million. The
current occupancy rate is 92 per cent and the average remaining tenant agreement
duration amounts to 4.4 years. Djurgårdsstadens Fastigheter AB is the vendor.

With the acquisition, Kungsleden establishes an additional cluster with a total
leasable area of 88,500 sqm, which will complement the company’s current office
and hotel offering in the Stockholm region, e.g. the clusters Danderyd Kontor,
Kista City, Västberga and Västra Kungsholmen/Vasastan. The properties on Gärdet
-Frihamnen will be assumed on December 1 and the property in Hammarby Sjöstad
will be assumed following completion of the construction, which is expected to
take place in spring 2017.

“I am extremely proud and satisfied that we have managed to acquire a property
cluster in one of Stockholm’s largest city development areas, and thereby
strengthening our customer offering in central Stockholm. The acquisition means
that we will exceed our expansion goal for 2017 as we reach SEK 27 billion in
property value already this year, and more than 40 per cent of the total
property value will be located in Stockholm”, says Biljana Pehrsson, CEO at
Kungsleden.

Gärdet-Frihamnen is located in Stockholm’s new city district project Stockholm
Royal Seaport. The new area will include 12,000 new homes, 35,000 new
workplaces, a modern port and new infrastructure such as the City Tram and the
road tunnel project Norra Länken.

Financing for the acquisition has been secured through a six year credit from
Danske Bank with marked based terms and conditions.
