Signs of sector recovery, and more Q1 results

The markets were much quieter following the Easter break, with limited news; however, the names we cover saw their shares up 2.6% on average, with Atrium Ljungberg (7.1%), SBB (7.1%) and Pandox (4.8%) the top performers. JM released its Q1 results and we reiterated our BUY, believing it has passed the earnings trough, while we reiterated our HOLDs on Corem and Fabege following their quarterly reports. The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 5.04% for 2025e and 5.34%...

Q1 reporting begins, volatility persists, CEO to leave and ‘special ex...

The ‘tariff volatility’ in credit and equity markets persisted this week, reversing many of the gains from previous weeks. Atrium Ljungberg kicked off Q1 reporting season.

The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 5.33% for 2025e and 5.66% for 2026e.

Furthermore, we upgraded JM to BUY (HOLD) and published several Q1 previews in the construction sector. The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 5.06% for 2025e and 5.37% for 2026e.

Everything is connected

Geopolitical uncertainty has affected market interest rates and thus the Nordic real estate sector – and we see no near-term fix. The yield gap (risk premium) has remained broadly unchanged in the recent market volatility, meaning interest rates changes explain most of the YTD share price performance – a correlation we expected will continue. The local office rental market remains soft, and we expect the logistics market to follow suit. However, given the deleveraging efforts in recent years and...

This week, Castellum lost its seventh-largest tenant after Northvolt declared bankruptcy, Citycon’s IG rating was withdrawn, construction companies continue to start newbuilds (NCC in Finland), Corem announced a lease extension, and Kojamo and Sagax issued new bonds. The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 5.17–5.49% for 2025–2026e.

Sagax (Hold, TP: SEK235.00) - More terminations and low forecast

Q4 PFPM beat our forecast by 3%, while a key negative was the rise in lease terminations, indicating a coming rise in vacancy rates, and a low 2025 PFPM forecast of SEK4.4bn, up just 2.4% YOY. Sagax is trading at a 67% NAV premium (adjusted for listed holdings at market value), or a 2026e P/FFO (based on our M&A scenario) roughly in line with our broader peer group. We reiterate our HOLD, but have cut our target price to SEK235 (240).

This week, the ECB and Riksbank cut policy rates, and Atrium Ljungberg and Platzer kicked off the Q4 reporting season.

Set for another subdued year

Volatile market interest rates, coupled with rental market weakness, indicate 2025 could be another year of subdued sector performance. The sector is trading at discounts to its historical averages on P/FFO (15.4x NTM) and NAV (26% discount), while the tight implied yield gap looks less appealing. Deleveraging efforts over the past three years have improved EBIT/NIBD metrics and reduced sector risk. We maintain our neutral stance, with one SELL recommendation. Our top sector picks are Balder, Ny...

Transaction volumes on the up

Nordic property transaction volumes improved in December, with strong growth YOY in Norway and Sweden, albeit still far below ATH levels. In other news, Fabege made a mixed-use asset divestment at a 4% discount to BV, while we published Q4 previews for Sagax, Catena, Sveafastigheter and Wallenstam. The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 4.44% for 2024e and 5.06% for 2025e.

Sagax (Hold, TP: SEK240.00) - 2026e P/FFO in line with sector

We expect a solid Q4e result, with adj. PFPMps YOY growth of 12% and 12-month rolling growth of 5%, marking an end to the declining growth rate. We have raised our 2025–2026e FFOps by 4%, on a reclassification of NP3 to an associated company. Despite its substantial P/NAV premium, Sagax is trading at a 2026e P/FFO (based on our M&A scenario) roughly in line with our broader peer group. We reiterate our HOLD but have cut our target price to SEK240 (260).

Rising SWAP rates hit sector, weak rental update

The sector has traded down in recent weeks on rising long-term SWAP rates, resulting in multiples contraction, but we do not expect significant changes to consensus 2025–2026e FFO/EPS. This week, Corem issued a Q4 net letting-related profit warning, confirming the terminated lease in Stockholm’s Kista district, and Sveafastigheter announced a CFO change. The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 4.42% for 2024e and 5.10% for 2025e.
