Kojamo (Buy, TP: EUR10.50) - Expecting improved rental markets
The Q3 results were in line with our forecasts, with continued muted Finnish residential rental markets. However, we expect markets to gradually improve, given a low supply of newbuilds over 2025–2027e and falling unemployment rates. With declining interest rates, we also see the potential for the company to restart project developments in 2025–2026. On the current valuation, we find the risk/reward attractive. We have upgraded to BUY (HOLD) and raised our target price to EUR10.5 (10).

Mixed Q3s and soft datapoint for Stockholm office market
This week, Hufvudstaden, Veidekke, Selvaag Bolig and Skanska reported Q3 results. Furthermore, Vasakronan (unlisted) reported soft vacancies and net lettings, which we consider a negative datapoint for peers such as Fabege and Hufuvdstaden. The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 4.33% for 2024e and 4.88% for 2025e.

Two upgrades, an equity raise, and transactions
This week, we upgraded Balder to BUY and Sagax to HOLD following their Q3 results, Balder completed a SEK1.5bn equity raise and bought assets from a JV, while a >5% rent increase for 2025 provided a positive datapoint for rent-regulated apartments in Sweden. The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 4.31% for 2024e and 4.86% for 2025e.

This week, we shifted our coverage from KCM Properties to Logistea and reinstated a recommendation with a BUY and SEK20 target price. In other news, Entra reported soft Q3 results, while Atrium Ljungberg’s were more neutral, and we see a potential catalyst for the Swedish residential market at the start of November. The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 4.70% for 2024e and 5.17% for 2025e.

Keen eye on vacancy rates
Interest rates have seemingly peaked, and more cuts are expected. Given the level at which rates are set to stabilise, we still expect some upward pressure on book value yields. NAV-wise, this is likely to be offset by rental growth and retained earnings, but our base case is limited growth in 2024–2025e. Rental KPIs remain the key focus, as vacancy rates continue to rise, particularly for offices, but so far rental prices have held firm. We maintain our neutral sector stance, with Castellum and...

Hufvudstaden up to HOLD, layoffs in construction sector and rate cut
This week we upgraded Hufuvdstaden to HOLD following its Q2 results, JM is laying off 145 employees, and the Riksbank cut the policy rate by 25bp to 3.50%. While we retain our neutral stance on the Swedish real estate sector, we have turned slightly more positive since last month’s reduction in long-term market interest rates. The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 4.27% for 2024e and 4.71% for 2025e.

Kojamo (Hold, TP: EUR10.00) - Q2 as warned, market as feared
Kojamo’s Q2 results were as warned on 15 July. And as we expected, yields on book asset valuations and vacancy rates continued to rise. With no ongoing developments, the growth outlook remains weak. We see a better risk/reward elsewhere in the sector, and reiterate our HOLD and EUR10 target price.

More Q2 results, a profit warning and an equity raise
This week, Kojamo issued a profit warning for Q2 and the full year. Balder, Castellum, Citycon and Sagax reported Q2 figures. Corem issued new shares. The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 4.26% for 2024e and 4.69% for 2025e.

Kojamo (Hold, TP: EUR10.00) - Guidance cut
On 15th July, Kojamo issued a profit warning, lowering its Q2 FFO guidance by c7% on a weaker lettings market. The company stated oversupply was the main reason, but we also expect demand to weaken in 2024–2025 in Finland with the rise in VAT and cuts in housing allowance for lower-income households. We find the risk/reward better elsewhere in the sector, but the valuation appears fair. We reiterate our HOLD, but have cut our target price to EUR10 (10.5).

The slow market recovery in Nordic CRE transactions continued in June. Moreover, a large transaction in Stockholm, Sweden, supports commercial brokers’ estimated current CBD yields.

Strong divestment, flat Swedish policy rate and tenant bankruptcies
This week, the Swedish Riksbank kept the policy rate unchanged at 3.75%, but the market is factoring in an 85% likelihood of a cut in August. Stenhus Fastigheter has seen two key tenants apply for bankruptcy within a week, and Entra divested a hotel at a 28% premium to book value. Finally, we maintained a neutral view in our Nordic real estate sector update last week. The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 4.45% for 2024e and 4.86% for 2025e.

Improved sentiment, but unattractive sector valuation
On the positive side, sentiment has improved on peaked interest rates and tightening credit spreads. However, we consider the sector fully valued and maintain our neutral view, given our expectation of muted NAV/share and FFOps growth. Our key focus is on rising vacancy rates, particularly in the office segment. Our top sector picks are Wihlborgs, Catena and PPI.
