CEO Andreas Philipson comments

The business remained stable in the first half of 2013. The differences in the results compared to the same period last year are primarily due to an increase in property values during the quarter of more than 34 million SEK. The estimated increase in value is essentially due to reduced risk factors as our plans continue to materialise.

Our zoning plan was appealed at the beginning of the year concerning noise pollution and particle levels. In this quarter, we have worked to ensure that the appeal process will run as smoothly as possible. Catena is focused on a strong environmental profile for the new Haga Norra. Our aim is to meet all requirements to ensure the best environment possible. Based on our test measurements and the environmental precautions we have included in the zoning plan, we feel confident we will reach the required limits when the expansion is completed.

Preparations continued in order to identify future commercial tenants for our properties.

The level of activity and interest for what is happening in the local area remained strong during this quarter, including the developments at Arenastaden and the continued expansion of the hospital, New Karolinska in Hagastaden. When New Karolinska held an open house, approximately 1,000 visitors showed up. The range of future offerings in Haga Norra and its surroundings in terms of employment, housing, shopping, entertainment and leisure makes our location very interesting.
