Peter Hallgren, President and CEO:

“Catena's performance continues to meet our expectations. Profit for the period
after tax rose by 24% to SEK 178 M. The value of the existing real estate
portfolio continues to grow and the change in the first nine months of the year
was SEK 132 M, of which SEK 38 M pertains to the third quarter. This increase in
value is an effect of reduced required returns for some properties, continued
investment and new leases, which have a value-increasing effect.

“The lower income from property management is primarily attributable to
exchange-rate fluctuations, mainly due to the strengthening of the Norwegian
krona. However, currency changes had a positive effect on the translation
reserve in shareholders' equity.

“We continue our work on developing and improving our existing properties. Our
strategy also includes acquiring property and land with development potential. A
weaker market situation and financial concern can increase the opportunities for
such acquisitions. Catena is well prepared for a potential market change.”
