Consolidated revenues of Hepsor for Q1 2022 amounted to 1.3 million euros and net profit to 0.02 million euros (including 0.005 million euros attributable to the owners of the parent company). The Group's revenues and profitability are directly dependent on the development cycle of projects, which lasts approximately 24 to 36 months. Sales revenue is only generated at the end of this cycle. Therefore, more projects may end in one quarter than in another and quarters may differ significantly in terms of revenue. In competed development projects, we sold 8 apartments at Strelnieku 4b, Riga in Q1 2022.

The management of Hepsor still forecasts a turnover of 28 million euros in 2022 and profit of 3.3 million euros (including 3.1 million euros attributable to the owners of the parent company) despite the war in Ukraine that was launched in February 2022 and its impact on the global economy.

At the beginning of 2022, the development project at Baložu 9 (18 apartments) was completed in Riga. All the homes in this project had found new owner even before the construction was completed. This year, Priisle Kodu (76 apartments plus commercial space) and the first stage of Paevälja Hoovimajad (48 apartments) will be completed in Tallinn. The sales revenue of these projects will be reflected in the financial results of the following quarters of 2022.

Three commercial development projects will be completed in Tallinn and Riga this year. The first tenants have moved into Grüne Maja, an office building following the green thinking concept. The construction of the Büroo 113 office building, which has already reached 100% occupancy, will be completed by the end of 2022. The latter is the first time that we use green solutions (geothermal heating and cooling, rainwater use, energy-efficient architecture, excellent indoor climate, solar energy, etc.) in a city centre highrise. In 2022, a stock-office commercial development project will be completed at Ulbrokas 30, Riga, which has also reached 100% occupancy.

In May 2022, we sold the last apartment in the Agenskalna 24 development project in Riga. Therefore, the number of development projects in the portfolio dropped to 25. The apartments sold in 2022 reduced the potential turnover to 377 million euros.

Despite the complicated construction market due to the war in Ukraine, supply chain challenges and rising prices, we signed an 8.1 million euro construction contract for the construction of four apartment buildings with 92 apartments in Marupe, near Riga. As of May 2022, a total of 38 booking agreements and contracts under the law of obligations have been sold in the Marupe development project. The project will be completed in 2023. The sale and construction of Hepsor's second largest residential development project, Kuldigas Parks (116 apartments) in Riga, is also proceeding according to plan and 34% of the apartments have been sold. The project will be completed in 2023.

In Estonia, we will start the construction and sale of homes at Ojakalda and Manufaktuuri 7 in 2022. The two projects have a total of 255 homes. In addition to the construction of the Marupe development project, which has already started in Riga this year, we also plan to start the construction of the Ranka Dambis residential development project in Riga (36 apartments). In 2022, a total of 383 apartments are planned to be built in Tallinn and Riga, including 128 in Riga.

As of the date of this report, the market for new developments is still active both in Riga and Tallinn, and interest in new homes and commercial premises is still high. At the same time, it is currently difficult to assess the impact of rapid inflation, the European Central Bank's monetary policy, rising energy prices and the Ukrainian refugee crisis on the economy and consumer behavior in the near future.

Overview of Development Projects

As at 31 March 2022 the Group had 26 active projects in different development phases (31 March 2021: 21 projects) ja 177,000 sqm of sellable area (31 March 2021: 131,000 sqm).

At the beginning of 2022, the following structural changes have taken place in the Group:

  • ✓ Hepsor Latvia OÜ acquired a 50% shareholding in Kvarta Holding OÜ in accordance with an option agreement (Estonia, 12 January 2022). The Group has already taken into account the exercise of the option in previous published forecasts. Kvarta Holding OÜ owns a 100% shareholding in Kvarta SIA, which is developing Kuldigas Parks residential development project with 116 apartments in Riga at Gregora 2a.
  • ✓ Hepsor Latvia OÜ sold its 50% shareholding in Hepsor Marupe SIA to the co-owners (Latvia, 10 February 2022) in accordance with the shareholders' agreement. Hepsor Marupe SIA is developing a project with 92 apartments in Marupe, Latvia, near the Riga city boundary.
  • ✓ Hepsor AS acquired a minority stake in Hepsor P26b OÜ and Hepsor Peetri OÜ (March 2022) increasing its stake in both companies to 100%. The development projects of these entities ended in 2021.

Main Events

  • ✓ Hepsor U30 SIA signed a loan agreement with Bigbank AS Latvian affiliate on 14 January 2022 for the amount of 2.65 million euros. The purpose of the loan is to finance the construction of stock-office in Riga, Ulbrokas 30. Total leasable area of 3,645 sqm is fully covered with lease agreements. The expected completion of construction is in third quarter 2022.
  • ✓ Kvarta SIA signed a 7.5 million euro loan agreement with Bigbank AS Latvian affiliate on 1 February 2022. The purpose of the three-year loan is to finance the construction of Kuldigas Parks project in Riga, Gregora 2a. The construction of two buildings with 116 apartments began in the third quarter 2021 and is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2023.
  • ✓ Hepsor Marupe SIA and SIA Mitt&Perlebach signed a construction agreement for the construction of Marupe Darzs development project in Marupe, Riga area, on 5 April 2022. The value of construction agreement is approximately 8.3 million euros excluding value added tax.

Employees

As of 31 March 2022, the Group employed 23 (31 March 2021: 15) people, including 13 in Estonia and 10 in Latvia.

Total labour cost for the reporting period amounted to 369 thousand euros (Q1 2021: 164 thousand euros). Gross fees paid to the members of Management and Supervisory Boards during the reporting period amounted to 69 thousand euros (Q1 2021: 12 thousand euros).

The Group's definition of labour costs includes payroll expenses (incl. basic salary, additional remuneration, holiday pay and performance pay), payroll taxes, special benefits and taxes calculated on special benefits. The remuneration of the members of the Management Board and the Supervisory Board are also considered to be labour costs.

Operating Results

The Group's sales revenue in Q1 2022 was 1.3 million euros (compared with 2.9 million euros in Q1 2021), of which 1.1 million euros (Q1 2021: 0.3 million euros) or 86% (Q1 2021: 12%) was earned from Latvia.

Compared with the same quarter year earlier, sales revenue in Q1 2022 decreased by 56%. The decrease in revenue in Q1 2022 was mainly due to a smaller number of completed projects, which resulted in fewer projects available for sale.

In Q1 2022, the Group sold a total of 8 apartments in Latvia, Strelnieku 4b. A year earlier, 3 apartments were sold in Latvia and 16 in Estonia. In addition to the sale of apartments, the Group also offers project management services and generates rental income from real estate. In total, other sales revenue amounted to 158 thousand euros, or 12% of the Group's total sales revenue.

Large fluctuations in sales revenue are relatively common in real estate development business. The development cycle of the Group's real estate projects lasts approximately 36 months. In year-on-year comparisons, sales revenues and profits may fluctuate depending on the period between the completion of the construction of the development project and the sale of the completed apartments.

Profitability

The Group's operating loss for Q1 2022 amounted to 314 thousand euros (compared with operating profit of 259 thousand euros in Q1 2021). The Group's net profit for the reporting period amounted to 22 thousand euros (compared with 173 thousand euros in Q1 2021), of which the profit attributable to the owners of the parent amounted to 5 thousand euros (50 thousand euros in Q1 2021), while the profit to non-controlling interest was 17 thousand euros (123 thousand euros in Q1 2021).

The increase in operating expenses and change in the structure of sales revenue had the most impact on the Group's operating profit. Compared to 95% in 2021, the Group's revenues from the sale of real estate dropped to 85% in Q1 2022. The share of rental income in sales revenue increased therefore decreasing profit margins.

Cash Flows

The Group's cash and cash equivalents amounted to 10.9 million euros at the beginning of the Q1 2022 (Q1 2021: 4.2 million

euros) and to 7.4 million euros at the end of the Q1 2022 (Q1 2021: 2.4 million euros). The negative cash flow for the period was 3.7 million euros (Q1 2021: 1.8 million euros).

Cash flow from operating activities for Q1 2022 was negative at 6.9 million euros (Q1 2021: 5.9 million euros). Cash flow from operating activities was mostly affected by the growth in the portfolio of development projects, due to the change in inventories the negative cash flow in Q1 2022 was 7.4 million euros (Q1 2021: 5.9 million euros).

Cash flow from investments was positive at 1.1 million euros in Q1 2022 (Q1 2021: 0.2 million euros). The largest impact was from repayment of loans granted, the balance of which decreased by 1.1 million euros (Q1 2021: 0 euros).

Cash flow from financing activities was positive at 2.1 million euros (Q1 2021: 4.4 million euros). In Q1 2022, the Group received more loans than it repaid. The net amount of loans received in Q1 2022 was 2.3 million euros (Q1 2021: 4.7 million euros).

Note 20. Risk management

Risk management is part of the Group's strategic planning and decision-making process. The Group is exposed to a number of risks and uncertainties related to, among other factors, the business and financial risks. The materialisation of any such risks could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. The Group's risk management process is based on the premise that the Group's success depends on constant monitoring, accurate assessment, and effective management of risks. The Group's management monitors the management of these risks.

Strategic risk

The Group's strategic risks are risks that can significantly impact the execution of its business strategies and ability to achieve the objectives. Such risks are impacted by changes in political environment and market demand as well as microeconomic developments. While the risks can have negative impact on the Group's business, they can also create new business opportunities. The Group carefully selects the new development projects and monitors the market trends in order to adjust its strategy when significant changes occur.

Market risk

The Group is exposed to price risk resulting from decline in the market values of the Group's real estate development projects or increase in input prices. There can be no guarantee that the Group will be able to sell its development projects in future with prices that are similar or higher than the expected market value of these projects. The Group cannot ensure it is able to sell its development projects with expected prices could have an unfavourable impact on the Group's statement of financial position and may have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, financial condition, prospects and results of operations and execution of its strategy. At present it is not possible to assess the extent of any such potential changes.

The Group's income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. The Group actively uses external and internal borrowings to finance its real estate development projects in Estonia and Latvia. A project's external financing is either in the form of a bank loan or investor loan from minority interest holders denominated in Euro.

The interest rates of investor loans are usually fixed, ie interest rates are not floating and do not depend on Euribor.

The Group's bank loans have both fixed and floating interest rates based on Euribor. Bank loans have 0% floor clause as protection against negative Euribor meaning that in case of negative Euribor, Euribor is equalized to zero and the margin of such loans does not decrease. The management constantly monitors the Group's exposure to interest rate risk which arises from loans with floating interest rates. Such risk is mainly related to the potential upward movement in Euribor as already warned by European Central Bank.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations towards the Group under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities such as trade receivables from rental property and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and other financial instruments.

In order to minimize credit risk, the Group is only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and deposits cash in banks wellrecognized banks in Estonia and Latvia. If such rating is not available, the Group uses other publicly available financial information and its own trading records to rate its major customers.

The Group is in real estate development business and upon sale of completed property the Group enters into notarized agreement with the buyer. Since most of the transactions are ensured either with money deposited in the notary's deposit account or a bank loan, the Group is not exposed to material credit risk from trade receivables.

Liquidity risk

The Group's liquidity represents its ability to settle its liabilities to creditors on time. A careful management of liquidity and refinancing risks implies maintaining the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities. Due to the nature of the Group's business activities, the Group actively uses external and internal funds to ensure that timely resources are always available to cover capital needs.

The Group manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. The Group mitigates refinancing risk by monitoring liquidity positions, analyzing different financing options on an ongoing basis and negotiating with financing parties over the course of financing.

Covid-19 risk

The impact of the coronavirus COVID-19 is being felt by all businesses around the world. Therefore, the continuing spread of the coronavirus COVID-19 may have an adverse long-term impact on markets where the Group operates. The velocity of change coming out of the pandemic is generating new forms of financial and operational risks arising from inflation, capacity constraints, and supply chain disruptions.

Capital risk

The core purpose of the Group's capital risk management is to ensure the most optimal capital structure to support the sustainability of the Group's business operations and shareholders' interests.

The Group uses the debt-to-equity ratio to monitor capital structure. The debt-to-equity ratio is calculated as the ratio of net debt to total capital. The management considers the Group's capital structure optimal.

Management Board's Confirmation

The Management Board confirms that the unaudited interim report for Q1 2022, which is comprised of the management report and the interim financial statements, provides a true and fair view of the Group's operations, financial position and results of operations, and describe the significant risks and uncertainties the Group faces.
