EfTEN Real Estate Fund AS earned consolidated rental income of EUR 2,650 thousand in June 2025, an increase of EUR 7 thousand compared to May. The increase was supported by higher turnover-based rent in shopping centers and a lower vacancy rate in office premises. Property management and marketing expenses decreased by EUR 77 thousand compared to the previous month. The Fund’s consolidated EBITDA for June amounted to EUR 2,310 thousand, growing by EUR 81 thousand month-over-month.
During the first six months of 2025, the Fund earned EUR 15.58 million in rental income, which is 1.6% more than in the same period last year. Consolidated EBITDA amounted to EUR 12.9 million, a decrease of 1.3% year-over-year. The decrease was primarily driven by the sale of the Tähesaju Hortes gardening centre and increased vacancy in the office segment, especially in the Menulio office building in Vilnius and the office building at Pärnu mnt 102 in Tallinn. On the other hand, EBITDA increase was supported by the addition of the Härgmäe and Paemurru logistics centres as well as newly acquired and developed elderly care homes. The total office vacancy rate decreased in June from 17.0% to 16.2%, i.e. from 10.2 thousand m² to 9.7 thousand m². Based on lease agreements already signed, an additional 1.1 thousand m² of office space will be transferred to tenants in July and August, further decreasing office vacancies. The overall vacancy rate in the Fund’s property portfolio stood at 3.7% at the end of June.
The regular semi-annual property revaluation carried out by Colliers International did not result in any significant changes. The revaluation resulted in a gain of EUR 546 thousand and increased the fair value of the property portfolio by 0.15%. In the valuation models, discount rates decreased on average by 0.1–0.2 percentage points, supported by the decrease in EURIBOR, while exit yields remained at the same level as at the end of last year. Forecasts for office cash flows were slightly more conservative compared to year-end 2024, while cash flow outlooks for other segments were slightly more optimistic.
Prior to the Midsummer holidays, the Fund’s subsidiary EfTEN SPV12 OÜ, which owns the Rautakesko property at Tammsaare tee 49 and the logistics centre property at Kuuli 10 in Tallinn, entered into an interest rate swap agreement with Swedbank. Under the agreement, the 1-month EURIBOR was fixed at 1.995%. The swap, which follows the repayment schedule of the underlying loan, was signed for a three-year term. As at the end of June, the fair value of the derivative was negative EUR 41 thousand, and the notional value of the swap agreement was EUR 11.6 million, accounting for 7.4% of the Fund’s consolidated loan portfolio.
The Fund’s weighted average loan interest rate was at 3.95% at the end of June, compared to 5.65% a year earlier. Consolidated interest expenses for the first half of the year amounted to EUR 3.5 million, which is EUR 973 thousand less than in the same period of 2024.
As at 30 June 2025, the Fund’s net asset value (NAV) per share was EUR 19.979 and EPRA NRV was EUR 20.8523 per share, both increasing by 1.0% during the month.
