7/10/2017 5:30 AM

“I am pleased to report yet another extremely strong quarter. We have noted high demand and in the first six months, net lettings were a positive SEK 71 million, of which SEK 48 million pertained to the second quarter. This will build the foundation for increased earnings moving forward. However, we already have healthy growth with income from property management up 12 percent in the first six months,” says Anders Jarl, CEO of Wihlborgs Fastigheter.

“Moreover, the acquisition of 165,000 m² of office properties in Denmark for DKK 1.8 billion that was concluded on Sunday strengthens our position even further in the Danish market. Taken together, we see every prospect of Wihlborgs continuing to deliver profitable growth,” concludes Anders Jarl.
