Comments from the CEO

During the first quarter, we took possession of properties at a value of SEK 1.4
billion in Sweden, Norway and Finland and Hemfosa reported increased earnings
capacity and stronger earnings from property management. The proportion of
community service properties continued to rise, in line with our strategy of
achieving further growth in this type of property. In view of our strong
development and continued growth ambitions, we have proposed to the shareholders
that we implement a proactive rights issue, which will strengthen our
opportunities to continue to grow while maintaining a high and stable return.

PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

We now put another strong and eventful quarter behind us. Our earnings capacity
increased after acquiring properties worth approximately SEK 1.4 billion in all
of our three markets, including our second acquisition in Finland, as well as a
number of fully leased, newly built healthcare and personal care properties in
Sweden. We also divested non-priority properties at a total value MSEK 324 as a
feature of our efforts to streamline the property portfolio towards an increased
share of community service properties. Viewed as a whole, this meant that the
community service properties’ share of the total property value increased to 61
percent while the Group’s net operating income rose 17 percent to MSEK 428. The
upward trend during the quarter strengthens us in our conviction that we have
chosen the right direction: that by focusing on community service properties, we
can achieve increased earnings combined with a lower risk.

PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

Hemfosa is currently the only listed company in Sweden focusing on community
service properties. Our clear focus combined with stable cash flows and a
position as a reputable and knowledgeable counterparty in the community property
sector constitutes a solid platform for acquisitions and continued growth.
During spring 2016, the Hemfosa Board decided to additionally underscore the
company’s focus on community service properties by adopting a strategy aimed at
expanding the share of community service properties so that it represents at
least 75 percent of the total property portfolio. The geographic expansion to
Norway and Finland is important to our efforts to reach this goal. By broadening
the geographic selection base, we enhance our potential to identify advantageous
business opportunities that are suitable to us, even in the currently
competitive transaction market. The active market also provides us with
opportunities to streamline the portfolio and continue to divest non-priority
properties.

GROWTH

By combining long-term property management and development with successful
transaction work, Hemfosa has generated strong growth and a high return for its
shareholders since its inception seven years ago. The early part of 2016
continued in the same vein, and we see favorable prospects to continue to grow
while achieving high and stable earnings. This boosts our confidence ahead of
the proactive rights issue of ordinary shares that we are proposing to our
shareholders. With greater access to capital, we can act more swiftly when we
identify the right acquisitions. Our aim is to get this money working as soon as
possible by implementing wise acquisitions. We are evaluating attractive
transactions in all of our three markets. Strong cash assets also increase our
opportunities to invest in and develop our existing properties. We consider this
beneficial to both Hemfosa and our shareholders. We hope to receive the
confidence of the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting being held today –
and we look forward to continuing delivering the highest return among listed
property companies in Sweden.
