- Rental income increased 10 percent to SEK 1,150 million (1,045).
- Operating surplus increased 9 percent to SEK 800 million (731).
- Income from property management increased 12 percent to SEK 520 million (463).
- Profit for the period amounted to SEK 548 million (431), corresponding to earnings per share of SEK 1.78 (1.40).
Ulrika Hallengren, CEO of Wihlborgs, comments on the first quarter:
- Wihlborgs posted continued growth in the first quarter of 2026. Rental income increased 10 percent to SEK 1,150 million and for the fourth consecutive quarter sets another record. Operating surplus and income from property management also increased compared with the same period in 2025, and the long-term net asset value (EPRA NRV) rose 10 percent over the 12-month period, adjusted for paid dividends.
- While a general sense of caution is prolonging decision-making processes, we are also noting good potential in ongoing tenant discussions. We have a strong track record, with only two quarters of negative net lettings over the past seventeen years. In parallel with the above, we continue to invest in new projects and acquisitions that strengthen our positions on our markets.
- The new sustainability targets entered force as of 1 January. The targets are designed to better meet our stakeholders' rising expectations and to strengthen links with relevant frameworks and regulations. We have also broadened several areas, including climate change adaptation, circular material flows and refrigerant management, while concurrently strengthening the corporate governance perspective by increasing the focus on transparency, supplier responsibility, anti-corruption and how ESG is integrated into operational governance and decision making.
