Key Points

Positve

  • Successfully raised occupancy of the acquired 4,761-apartment portfolio from 83% to 89% during Q2, ahead of expectations.
  • Finnish economy showing strong growth, with GDP up 0.9% in both Q1 and Q2, leading in Europe.
  • Supply of rental apartments in Helsinki area declined by ~20%, improving supply-demand balance.
  • Financial position stable with strong liquidity, including 275 million in unused credit facilities and a 500 million backstop facility.
  • Like-for-like rental income increased 2.7%, driven by a 3.7% occupancy effect.
  • Equity ratio remains strong at 45%, with sizable headroom to financial covenants.
  • Expect to reach stabilized occupancy for the acquired portfolio by Q3, earlier than initially planned.
  • Integration of the Varma portfolio is going well, with performance exceeding underwriting expectations.
  • Refinanced 300 million acquisition financing with a bond issue in May, securing cost-effective terms.
Negative
  • Pricing power for landlords has not yet improved, with new lease agreements still slightly negative year-to-date.
  • FFO guidance upper limit was lowered by 5 million due to higher-than-anticipated finance expenses.
  • Revenue guidance was narrowed, with the lower end raised and upper end lowered, keeping the midpoint unchanged.
  • Like-for-like rents and water charges were slightly negative at -1%.
  • Loan-to-value ratio at 45.1% is slightly above the internal target of 45%.
  • Tenant turnover ratio increased slightly to 14.5%.
  • Geopolitical tensions and rising interest rates pose a cloud over the economic outlook.
  • Vantaa region is lagging behind Helsinki and Espoo in market recovery due to a weak construction sector.
  • Average rent per square meter increase is partly due to the higher-rent acquired portfolio, not organic growth.
  • Financial expenses were 2.3 million higher compared to last year.
