## Geography

The business is centered in Silkeborg, Denmark, with the Papirfabrikken area as its core operating location. The group’s asset base and tenant relationships are therefore highly concentrated in one Danish market, which makes local demand, regulation, and property values especially important.

- Operations are concentrated in Silkeborg, Denmark
- Property portfolio is centered on the Papirfabrikken area
- Tenant demand is local and tied to the Silkeborg market
- Development projects and hotel activity are Denmark-based
- Concentration increases sensitivity to one regional market

## Strategy

The group’s strategy is to maintain a high standard of property upkeep and tenant service while improving the quality and utility of its real estate portfolio. It also seeks to create value through development projects, long lease structures, and ongoing optimization of property operations in the Silkeborg area.

- **Strengthen the property portfolio** (medium-term) — A better-quality asset base supports tenant retention and long-term value creation.
- **Preserve stable tenant relationships** (short-term) — Longer leases and well-funded tenants reduce vacancy and income volatility.
- **Develop residential projects for sale** (medium-term) — Project development creates embedded value beyond recurring rental income.

- Maintain high maintenance and service standards
- Secure well-established tenants and stable occupancy
- Extend lease duration and improve contract durability
- Optimize property operations through close tenant dialogue
- Develop and sell residential projects in Silkeborg

## Risks

The company is exposed to property valuation risk because a large part of the asset base is measured at fair value and depends on market assumptions. It also faces concentration risk in Silkeborg, financing and interest-rate sensitivity through mortgage and bank debt, and earnings volatility from its minority stake in Silkeborg IF A/S.

- **Fair value volatility in investment properties** [high] — Property values are based on management assumptions and market yields, which can change with conditions.
- **Geographic concentration in Silkeborg** [medium] — The portfolio and operations are centered in one local market, limiting diversification.
- **Interest-rate and financing risk** [high] — Mortgage and bank borrowing make returns sensitive to funding costs and refinancing conditions.
- **Development and sale execution risk** [medium] — Projects under construction depend on timely completion, demand, and sale proceeds.
- **Volatile associate earnings** [medium] — The stake in Silkeborg IF A/S contributes earnings that can vary significantly year to year.

- Fair value changes can move earnings and equity materially
- Local market concentration ties results to Silkeborg conditions
- Interest expense and refinancing affect property returns
- Development projects carry timing and completion risk
- Silkeborg IF A/S results can be volatile and unpredictable

## Accounting

A major accounting judgment is the fair value measurement of investment properties, including level 3 inputs and assumptions about yields, renovations, and market conditions. The group also capitalizes project costs for properties under development, so timing of completion and valuation changes can materially affect reported profit. Borrowing costs, amortized loan fees, and associate accounting for Silkeborg IF A/S also affect the reported result.

- **Investment property fair value** — Can create non-cash profit volatility and change asset values materially
- **Development project capitalization** — Affects carrying value and future profit on sale
- **Borrowing cost accounting** — Changes finance costs and net profit
- **Equity method for associate** — Can cause earnings volatility despite limited cash flow control

- Fair value gains and losses affect reported profit
- Level 3 inputs rely on management estimates and market assumptions
- Development properties are measured using cost and valuation judgments
- Borrowing costs and loan fee amortization affect finance expense
- Equity-accounted associate results can be volatile
