Note 20 Interest-bearing receivables

Important estimates and assessments

The most important sources of uncertainty in estimates

A decision in the case between Peab and Unibail-​Rodamco-Westfield regarding the contract for Mall of Scandinavia in Solna was handed down in Peab’s favor on June 30, 2023. In August 2023 Unibail-​Rodamco-Westfield petitioned the Swedish Court of Appeal to set aside the judgment in its entirety in a so-​called protest action. During the process the judgement is suspended and cannot be enforced and therefore the time of payment has been deferred. Peab’s assessment of the estimated effects on profit has not changed. Peab continues to have an outstanding receivable of about SEK 1,600 million on Unibail Rodamco Westfield per December 31, 2024. In addition to interest-bearing receivables  accrued interest income is also reported, see note 25. After a thorough legal trial through arbitration lasting nearly seven years Peab cannot see any grounds for a protest action. In the further process Peab will counter the protest action.
