Outlook for Kojamo in 2021 

Kojamo estimates that in 2021, the Group's total revenue will increase by 2–4 per cent year-on-year. In addition, Kojamo estimates that the Group's FFO for 2021 will amount to between EUR 150–158 million, excluding non-recurring costs.

The outlook is based on the management's assessment of total revenue, net rental income, administrative expenses, financial expenses, taxes to be paid and new development to be completed, as well as the management's view on future developments in the operating environment.

The outlook takes into account the estimated occupancy rate and rises in rents as well as the number of apartments to be completed. The outlook does not take into account the impact of potential acquisitions on total revenue and FFO.

The outlook also takes into account that delays in lifting COVID-19 restrictions affect the rate at which migration recovers to the level seen before the COVID-19 pandemic. Migration sustains strong demand, which will increase Like-for-Like rental income.

The management can influence total revenue and FFO through the company's business operations. In contrast, the management has no influence over market trends, the regulatory environment or the competitive landscape.

CEO's review

Our total revenue and net rental income grew during the first nine months of the year. Funds From Operations (FFO) also developed favourably, especially in the third quarter. Our financial position was strong at the end of September, with our equity ratio and Loan to Value (LTV) being in line with our strategic targets.

Despite the good progress with vaccinations, the COVID-19 pandemic, the related restrictions and the uncertainty around the lifting of the restrictions have had a temporary impact on migration. This, together with the increased supply, continued to affect our operations especially in the capital region, and our financial occupancy rate decreased during the period under review. The recovery of migration is a key factor in the recovery of demand. According to the current estimate, COVID-19 restrictions and recommendations will be lifted in Finland when over 80 per cent of people over the age of 12 have received two vaccine doses.

There are signs of a recovery and the lifting of the restrictions has already begun. For example, the national remote work recommendation was lifted in mid-October and universities have announced they will increase the proportion of contact instruction during the remainder of the year. The number of job vacancies in the capital region increased significantly in the third quarter. The prevailing labour shortages in the service industry are slowing down the recovery of that sector.  However, decision-making has been somewhat slow and uncertain, and the effects of lifting the restrictions will be reflected in the recovery of migration with a delay. These uncertainties have slowed down the migration of labour to the Helsinki region. There are regional differences in recovery, with normalisation of the market already seen in Finland's other large university cities during the summer. Our occupancy rate improved in the third quarter in Tampere and Turku, for example, while the recovery in the Helsinki region has been slower to start.

We are in a good position to respond to the recovery of demand and we expect urbanisation to continue in line with forecasts. We focus on creating long-term growth in the regions where future demand will be concentrated. The 36,484 apartments in our portfolio are located in Finland's largest cities and our strong project pipeline is situated entirely in the Helsinki region. We are also making good progress in our development projects, with the first projects under the Metropolia real estate development undertaking set to be put up for tender during the remainder of the year. We also expect zoning for rest of the projects to be completed during this and next year. 

Our investments have progressed in line with our strategic targets during the year. The substantial increase in construction costs in the market has not affected us significantly, as our contracts have been signed at fixed prices. Approximately 800 apartments have already been completed this year and their development margin has been at a very good level.
