My Favorite Swedish Stock: 🏢 Cibus Real Estate AB – Q2/2026 Earnings & Update

Hi everyone,


Since the latest quarterly figures were released today, I took the opportunity to review the fundamentals on our Side A (dividend/net asset value) with an additional purchase. The monthly dividend payer from Sweden is performing well :)


The operating business involving Scandinavian supermarket real estate (tenants such as Kesko, ICA, and Coop) is running like a Swiss watch. Here’s the unbiased breakdown of the raw numbers from the Q2 report, converted to euros:


https://www.cibusrealestate.com/investors/financial-reports/


1. Core Quality Formula (revenue growth + margin)


  • Revenue growth: Rental income rose in Q2 to 46.2 million EUR (previous year: EUR 41.3 million). That represents a double-digit increase of 11.8%, driven primarily by lease agreements that are almost entirely indexed to inflation.


  • Operating Margin (Net Profit Margin): Stood at a phenomenal 97.6% (net cash flow of EUR 45.1 million).


  • Core Quality Score: 11.8% + 97.6% = 109.4 (Our target is >25 for top quality. This figure absolutely blows that target out of the water).


2. Cash Flow & Dividend Check (The Most Important Criterion)


For a dividend stock with monthly payouts, the all-important question is: Is the dividend paid out of assets or on credit, or is it genuinely earned?


  • Operating Cash Flow (H1/2026):
    73.2 million EUR.
  • Capital Expenditures (CapEx in the Portfolio): Only 8.4 million EUR.
  • Free cash flow (FCF) in the first half of the year:
    64.8 million EUR.
  • Dividend paid (H1/2026):
    36.9 million EUR.
  • Conclusion: Free cash flow more than comfortably covers the dividend. The payout of EUR 0.90 per year (corresponding to a solid yield of just under 7.0%) is absolutely crisis-proof and earned organically.


3. Net Asset Value (P/B Ratio) & Valuation


  • Equity-Adjusted Book Value (EPRA NRV):
    13.00 EUR per share (previous year: 12.80 EUR).
  • At our purchase price of approximately 12.87 EUR (96 DKK), we are therefore acquiring the portfolio at a slight discount to the fair net asset value of the properties (P/B ratio of 0.99).
  • The projected P/E ratio for 2026 is a very favorable 12.7x.


4. Debt Review (Have We Weathered the Interest Rate Turn?)


  • Leverage ratio (net debt/property value): Remains stable at 59.1% —right within the healthy management target range of 55% to 65%.
  • Interest Rate Hedging: A massive 96% of all debt is hedged long-term via swaps and interest rate caps. The average interest rate remains consistently at a very manageable 4.0%. The interest coverage ratio (Räntetäckningsgrad) stands at a solid 2.4x.


Overall conclusion:


No half-baked compromises, no interest rate house of cards. Cibus delivers an excellent operating report, is achieving double-digit revenue growth, and easily covers its dividend from free cash flow. A first-class, defensive cash generator with a solid foundation.

A score over a hundred is pretty impressive 👍🏼
I used my last few emergency carrots yesterday to place a short trade on $SPCX 😂

@TradingHase Well, if that works out, you know where you’ll get your monthly cash 😬—a whole 7%—and from now on, I’m going half and half. Every month, I’ll use half of the dividends to buy new Cibus shares, and the other half will be reinvested in new projects.

@Raketentoni I think I'll start by increasing the positions I already have to the levels I've set as my goal, and only then add new stocks to my portfolio.
That said, Netflix is already tempting me to top up my position right now using my emergency fund. 🙈

@TradingHase Stay away from Netflix. I'd wait until the market as a whole bottoms out. There are good reasons why the big players are moving into defensive and dividend stocks. $TDIV is a good example of this.

@Raketentoni Thanks for the tip. Where do you see a bottom for this?
Yeah, I'm pretty well positioned in ETFs now, too. 👍🏼

@TradingHase It's tough with Metflix, but I think there's still room for a 5% drop.

@TradingHase But the short position is going to skyrocket. $SPCX will soon be available for $60. That's when you could go long.

@TradingHase Have a wonderful evening
#I wonder how many beginners have filed for personal bankruptcy 😂. I'd love to see the statistics on that. It's actually not that hard to trade securities.
@TradingHase # Fun Fact: It would be so cool if my album came out
@TradingHase #Hopefully there will be a feature with Azet

Nice stock—thanks for the post 👍
For Swedish stocks, the withholding tax is 30% in total, right?

@Royal_TS That's right—if you've used up your tax-free allowance, 15% will be withheld. The remaining 15% will then be subject to the usual deductions in Germany. However, you can easily claim a refund for these from Sweden. If you haven’t used up your tax-free allowance, the 30% rate will apply in full.

@Royal_TS Yeah, that's true, but as the old man says, in Sweden everything is straightforward—just do it again.

@Dividendenopi Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, the tax-free allowances for dividend portfolios run out quickly. I haven't dared to invest in Swedish stocks yet, and so far I only have $SHB A and $INVE B on my watchlist.

@Royal_TS Svenska is great, but the stock price is correcting right now. I’d wait a bit longer. They won’t pay out again until 2027 anyway. But Cibus pays out monthly. They make their money from grocery stores here in Scandinavia.
The leases are tied to inflation, so I don’t care if it goes up 😂 Best regards from 🇩🇰

@Royal_TS Go ahead and give it a try 😇 If the tax-free allowance runs out quickly, that's fine. And in the best-case scenario, you'll have a broker who offers a partial advance exemption. Then you won't have to do anything at all

@Dividendenopi Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case with FinanzenNetZero

@Royal_TS Nope, unfortunately, neobrokers generally don't offer that.

That sounds like something for me. I just need to look into the topic of withholding tax. That’s also one of the reasons why I sold off my shares in my employer, Essity.

@dirko68 It’s actually quite simple; here in Denmark, my broker handles this for me in the Scandinavian countries. For Germany, this is the easiest way:

The easiest way to reclaim the excess Swedish withholding tax (30% instead of the 15% stipulated in the double taxation treaty) is through the Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket).

You have up to five years after the end of the calendar year in which the dividends were paid to file your claim.

Here are the step-by-step instructions:

Request a certificate of residency:

Have your local tax office issue an official certificate confirming your tax residency.

Fill out Form SKV 3740:

Download the “Claim for repayment of Swedish tax on dividends” (SKV 3740) directly from the Skatteverket website.

Gather supporting documents:

Include your dividend statements from your custodian bank (as proof of the tax withheld) and the certificate of residence with your application.

Submit the application by mail:

Send the fully completed form along with the supporting documents to Skatteverket in Sweden. You’ll find the exact address directly on the form.
