“We continue to see a healthy trend in rental income and net operating income, with both increasing by 8% compared to last year, in spite of a minor currency headwind,” comments CEO Erik Selin and continues.

“The stable increase in Balder’s earning capacity is a consequence of our diversification and our ability to create added value through capital allocation, which is an important cornerstone in the company’s strategy. But in times like these, when some segments are a bit more challenging, and the importance of cost control is extremely high, our dedicated coworkers also truly make a difference. I believe this is evident in how we are performing versus the overall market.”
