Bent Oustad, CEO, says about the quarter:
“Despite turmoil in the world's financial markets, we keep focus on the things we can do something about. Once again, we deliver good rental results for the quarter. The situation is being closely monitored, and we are very satisfied with our tenant mix and its profile with large and solid companies. We notice that there are some large rental searches in the market. From there to getting a contract signed, it is all about hard work and good collaboration between all our departments, and that is where our focus lies.
In the quarter, we have completed the refinancing of Martin Linges vei 33 (ML33). Bonds totaling MNOK 2,000 were issued in January 2025. We have also refinanced Sandakerveien 138-140 with a new bank loan of MNOK 608. These days, we are finalising negotiations on the refinancing of bank loans and bonds maturing in 2025. In somewhat turbulent times in the financial market, it gives extra comfort to have long and good relationships with our financing partners."
