Hreiðar Már Hermannsson, CEO:
"The Company's performance has been strong so far this year, with robust growth in both revenue and EBITDA year-on-year.
In the second quarter, the Company completed the acquisition of Hádegismóar 8, a property of approximately 4,000 square metres let on a long-term triple net lease to a single tenant. The property is a clear example of the Company's strategy for developing its portfolio: large properties, strong tenants and long lease terms. The Company also sold its site at Járnháls 4.
Eik's new subsidiary, Vigur Kredit, purchased its first mortgage bond during the quarter, secured by a second-priority lien on a property that the Company considers would be a good fit for its own portfolio. This is the first concrete example of the financing approach outlined in the letter to shareholders in March — using the Company's position to provide second-lien financing secured by commercial real estate — put into practice.
Bond issuance has continued in line with the Company's issuance plan. The Company now offers three products suited to different investor needs, all of which have been well received.
The Company's outlook for 2026 has been revised upward in light of changes to the portfolio and other factors affecting performance in the second half of the year."
Operations of the period
Eik's operations remained strong in the first half of 2026, with EBITDA at the upper end of the Company's earnings guidance. Income from operations amounted to ISK 7,150 million, of which rental income was ISK 6,330 million, equivalent to an increase of 21.3% from the same period in 2025. Operating expenses amounted to ISK 2,572 million.
Operating income before fair value changes, sales gain and depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) increased by 24% compared with the same period last year, to ISK 4,578 million. Adjusted for one-off items in 2025, the increase was approximately 21% year-on-year. Profit before income tax amounted to ISK 4,744 million, and the Group's total comprehensive profit for the period amounted to ISK 3,794 million.
The Net Operating Income (NOI) ratio (i.e. operating profit before fair value change and depreciation, as a percentage of rental income) was 71.8% in the first six months of 2026, compared with 69.6% in the same period last year.
Financial Position
Total assets of the Company amounted to ISK 196,105 million as at 30 June 2026, of which investment properties were valued at ISK 182,251 million and assets for own use amounted to ISK 5,373 million. The Company's equity amounted to ISK 54,828 million at the end of the period. The Company's loan-to-value ratio (net interest-bearing debt / value of real estate, building permits and plots) was 59.6%. At the Company's Annual General Meeting on 16 April 2026, it was approved to pay a dividend to shareholders for the 2025 financial year in the amount of ISK 3,732.74 million, to be paid in two instalments. The payment date for the first instalment was 28 April 2026, and the second instalment will be paid on 14 October 2026. The Company's equity reflects the above liability.
Total liabilities of the Company amounted to ISK 141,277 million as at 30 June 2026, of which interest-bearing debt accounted for ISK 114,514 million and the income tax liability for ISK 16,498 million.

The Company's Portfolio
At the end of June, the Company completed the acquisition of Hádegismóar 8 for ISK 2.6 billion. As part of the transaction, a 20-year lease agreement was signed with Brimborg. The acquisition is expected to have a positive annualised impact of approximately ISK 195 million on the Company's EBITDA.
The Company has sold three properties this year: Suðurlandsbraut 20, the site at Járnháls 4, and a residential plot at Fossvegur 3 in Selfoss. The combined sales price of the properties was approximately ISK 1,270 million, and the sales gain amounted to ISK 115 million.
Updated Outlook
The Company has updated its outlook for 2026 to reflect changes in its portfolio, the estimated cost of share option agreements, and other factors affecting performance. The Company expects EBITDA for 2026 to be in the range of ISK 9,330–9,610 million.
The outlook is based on the consumer price index for July 2026.
