Bent Oustad, CEO, says about the quarter:

"This was another quarter with good underlying operations in the company,
including an increase in revenues and a stable cost level.

We had a revaluation of property values of MNOK 417 (+1.5%) in the quarter and
MNOK 910 (+3.4%) for the whole of 2024. This is in great contrast to 2023 where
we had a write-down of MNOK 3 150 (-11.6%) for the whole of 2023.

In the fourth quarter, we received an injection of MNOK 500 in new equity, which
shows our owner's support for developing the company further. In recent years,
we have strengthened the company through purchases in Kvadraturen and takeover
at Fornebu with contemporary buildings, solid tenants and long contracts. All of
this has resulted in longer WAULT and a better diversified tenant mix with an
overall higher yield.

The terms for an issuance of MNOK 2 000 in two new bilateral green bond loans to
refinance Martin Linges vei 33 in Fornebu were agreed at the end of December.
The loans of MNOK 800 for three years and MNOK 1 200 for seven years were issued
in January. Both loans have terms in line with our market price in the bond
market. We are humbled by the trust the market is showing us.

In addition, we have experienced a selective half-year in the transaction
market. A handful of life insurance companies and some syndicates have been
active in the market and more than confirmed our valuations. We still experience
the market as a bit uncertain, and interest rates as volatile. Based on this, we
believe that both 2025 and 2026 will offer opportunities in the property market.
