Wihlborgs buys and sells


Wihlborgs is acquiring a property in Copenhagen and is divesting properties in
Helsingborg and Malmö as part of its long-term work on developing its commercial
property holdings.
In Copenhagen, Wihlborgs has acquired the property Abildager 16 in Brøndby for
DKK 20 million. The property, which is unlet, has a site area of about 35,000 m²
and about 11,000 m² is developed with warehouses, cold-storage depots and
offices. Wihlborgs already owns the adjoining property Abildager 8-14 where
PostNord is the tenant.

“The acquisition of Abildager 16 gives us the opportunity to manage the
properties more efficiently and meet our tenants’ needs,” says Anders Jarl, CEO
of Wihlborgs Fastigheter.

In Helsingborg, Wihlborgs, through a company transaction, is divesting the
property Vikingen 10, to Gustavssons Fastigheter, a family-owned real estate
company. The lettable area amounts to almost 1,900 m² and consists of
apartments, restaurants, stores and offices.

“The divestment of this older property in Helsingborg, with a number of
apartments, is a part of our strategy of continually developing our property
portfolio focusing on modern commercial properties,” says Jarl. Gustavssons is
taking good care of older buildings with cultural values .

In Malmö, Wihlborgs acquired a large industrial property in 2010 from Dresser
Wayne in connection with their relocation to one of Wihlborg’s properties in the
harbour. In recent years, Wihlborgs has worked on preparing the property for
housing development and three blocks were previously sold. The last two blocks,
containing residential building rights of approximately 20,000 sqm BTA, are now
sold to private operators in two separate transactions.

“An important part of Wihlborgs’ business is project development. The work on
conversion of the industrial property in Limhamn is an example of successful
project development, which contributes to our earnings,” continues Jarl.

All divestments are being carried out as company transactions with a total
property value of SEK 157 million.
