- Rental income increased 8 percent to SEK 2.324 million (2.142).
- Operating surplus increased 8 percent to SEK 1.664 million (1.544).
- Income from property management increased 9 percent to SEK 1.077 million (978).
- Profit for the period amounted to SEK 850 million (883), corresponding to earnings per share of SEK 2.76 (2.87).
Ulrika Hallengren, CEO of Wihlborgs, comments on the second quarter:
"Rental income for the quarter amounted to SEK 1.174 million, up 7 percent year-on-year and a new record for a single quarter. A record was also set for operating surplus, which was up 6 percent to SEK 864 million. Income from property management increased 6 percent to SEK 556 million, equalling the record set in the fourth quarter of 2025. In summary, despite higher-than-normal vacancy rates, we have posted strong earnings growth."
"Net letting was positive at SEK 5 million, but more importantly, we are seeing a clear increase in market activity compared with the beginning of the year, providing an even stronger foundation going forward. In parallel, long-term external conditions are improving for our business. Clear examples of this include investments in defence and technology in Lund, infrastructure projects related to the Fehmarn Belt link and SAS's focus on Copenhagen Airport as its international hub."
"We have recently signed an agreement to acquire 95 properties in Skåne from Castellum. This is Wihlborgs' largest acquisition to date and aligns fully with our strategy as well as our focus for the past 20 years. We invest in markets that we know and in properties that offer a combination of stable returns and development potential. Our strong cash flow, together with a clear plan for gradually lowering our loan-to-value ratio, means we are well-positioned to create long-term value for our shareholders."
"We are continuing to invest in sustainability, with an unwavering focus on improving energy efficiency and reducing our CO2 emissions as well as on sustainability certifications, refrigerants and many other important areas. During the quarter, Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) validated our updated climate targets, which align better with our operations. It was also gratifying to receive recognition for our efforts in the form of inclusion in TIME Magazine's World's Most Sustainable Companies 2026 list."
