Interim report Jan-Jun 2018: Continued strong growth for Wihlborgs
“As Wihlborgs’ new CEO, I am delighted to summarise a very strong quarter for the company, one in which our excellent growth has continued. Thanks to a region experiencing strong expansion, an attractive offering and dedicated employees, we can report very favourable net lettings of SEK 46 million in the second quarter, totalling SEK 64 million in the first six months. This is an important factor for us to continue to improve our earnings,” says Ulrika Hallengren, CEO of Wihlborgs Fastigheter.
“The strong figures and robust growth we deliver quarter after quarter confirm that our strategy and business model are right, both in the short and the long term. Our balance sheet remains strong, which provides us with excellent prerequisites to continue our investments in new projects that will create long-term profitability for Wihlborgs, help our tenants grow, and contribute to the expansion of Wihlborgs and the region moving forward,” concludes Ulrika Hallengren.
