GroupOperationsAkelius Residential’s business concept entails the long term ownership, development and management of residential properties able to generate constantly growing cash flow.

Akelius ResidentialInterim Report, January to March 2014

Increase in value of properties 0.9 per centThe increase in value of the property holding was SEK 404 million (573) for the year, equiva-lent to 0.9 per cent (1.6). The increase in value is due to increased rental income. Properties were sold during the quarter for a total of SEK 95 million, which is 2.9 per cent above the estima-ted fair value at the beginning of the period.

Net financial items SEK -312 million Income from financial items for the quarter was SEK 2 million (37) and financial expenses were SEK 314 million (279). The Group’s interest expenses increased by SEK 36 million compared to the same period last year due to increased borrowings in connection with purchases of properties. The average interest rate on total borrowings decreased by 0.2 per-centage points, to 4.58 which affected interest expenses positively. The interest coverage ratio was 1.35 (1.32).

Change in fair value of derivatives SEK -281 million Derivative financial instruments during the period declined in value by SEK 281 million (-62), mainly due to the fall in market interest rate. Derivative instruments consist mainly of interest rate swaps. Estimates of the fair value of derivatives is based on Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Compared to 2013, no transfers have occurred between the different levels of the hierarchy, and no significant changes have been made regarding the valuation method. Cash flow in the derivative contracts is compared with the cash flow that would have been received if the contracts were concluded at market price on the closing date. The difference in the cash flows is discounted using an interest rate which takes into account the credit risk. The present value obtained is reported in the balance sheet at fair value. Change in fair value is recognized in the income statement without applying hedge accounting.

Property purchases SEK 2,620 million During the period properties were purchased for SEK 2,620, of which SEK 2,125 million relates to the purchase of properties in England as part of the Akelius Group restructuring started in 2013.Properties in Germany were bought for SEK 495 million with an average initial yield of 4.3 per cent at the average property price per square metre of SEK 11,100.

per centProperty investments SEK 277 million Investments in properties for the period totalled SEK 277 million (269), equivalent to SEK 91 per square metre. In conjunction with tenants moving out, apartments are upgraded to First Class, which corresponds to the quality of a newly built apartment. Total investment for First Class during the period is SEK 152 million.Other investments of SEK 125 million in improved standards concerned upgrading of residential properties, the conversion of commercial premises and lofts to apartments, densification of existing properties and water and energy saving projects.

Market valuation of properties The market value of all properties was assessed by internal valuations by closing day. The valu-ations are based on a cash flow model for each individual property, with separate assessments of future earning ability and required rates of return. The cash flow model is based on actual income and expenses adjusted for a normalized future cash flow. In order to guarantee valua-tions, 100 per cent of the properties have been valued externally. Values were verified by Jones Lang LaSalle and CB Richard Ellis. The average required yield for residential pro-perties was 4.74 per cent which is unchanged compared to the beginning of the period. The estimated market value of the Group’s property holding at the end of the period was SEK 47,252 million, which is equivalent to an average of SEK 15,329 per square metre as compared to SEK 14,736 at the end of 2013. The higher value per square metre is primarily due to the purchase of properties in England which, on average, were valued at SEK 41,283 per square metre. The market value has increased by SEK 404 million, or 0.9 per cent, as a result of changes in value, and decreased by SEK 45 million, owing to fluctuating exchange rates. The value increase of SEK 404 million is due to increased rental income. Purchases and investments for the quarter amounted to SEK 2,897 million and property sales totalled SEK 95 million. Residential properties constitute 95 per cent of the market value, which is in line with the company strategy of residential properties comprising a minimum of 90 per cent.

Loan-to-value 58 per centThe Group’s borrowing increased during the year by SEK 2,728 million from SEK 25,521 million at the end of 2013 to a total of SEK 28,249 million, primarily due to the net ac-quisition of properties. The loan-to-value ratio

Akelius ResidentialInterim Report, January to March 2014

TaxTotal tax for the period amounted to SEK 43 million, mainly related to deferred tax from unrealized value increase in the property portfolio. Akelius Residential has no ongoing tax disputes.

Cash flowOperating activities generated a cash flow of SEK 105 million (25). The improvement is mainly due to an increased operating surplus. Net cash from financing activities was SEK -2,858 million (-712) mainly related to purchas-es of properties. Cash flow from acquisitions of properties is secured before signing acquisition agreements. Profitable and non-mandatory upgrades to First Class can, if needed, be stopped within a three-month period. Cash flow from financing activities was SEK 2,743 million (729).

Risks and contingenciesThe operational risks are limited through the property portfolio being concentrated to resi-dential properties in locations with population growth. A strong residential market in Sweden, Germany and Canada reduces the risk for long-term vacancies. In order to further reduce the risk, or variations in the cash flow, interest rates are fixed long-term. Access to capital from a large number of investors, through the capital market and from private individuals provides a low refinancing risk. Overseas investments are currency-hedged so that the Group’s equity to assets ratio is not affected by exchange rate fluctuations.

The financial statements of the mother company have been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the accounting standard RFR 2, Ac-counting for Legal Entities.The Group applies the same accounting prin-ciples as in the last annual report, with the exception of IFRS 11 and IFRIC 21 Levies.

Additionally, a prepaid expense has been reported and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the financial year. IFRS 11 has not had any material impact on the Group.

Estimates and judgments Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experien-ce and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasona-ble under the circumstances. The same estima-tes and judgments are followed in the interim report as in the last annual report.

Related party transactions The following related party transactions were carried out during the period. The Group has raised a loan of SEK 1,058 million from the parent company.

Akelius ResidentialInterim Report, January to March 2014

Report of Review of Interim Financial Information

IntroductionWe have reviewed this report for the period 1 January 2014 to 31 March 2014 for Akelius Residenti-al AB (publ). The board of directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsi-bility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of ReviewWe conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

ConclusionBased on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Group, and with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Parent Company.
