The power market has received a lot of attention in the third quarter of 2018. The failed bet of the Norwegian power trader Einar Aas baffled an entire industry. Elspot prices have been volatile, ranging from 0.62 NOK/kWh to 0.21 NOK/kWh in different parts of Norway. From a record-breaking warm summer, the September of 2018 was among the wettest we have seen since 1900. It has been an eventful quarter.
The Group's results are solid, with a 23% YoY increase in adjusted net revenue and a 34% YoY increase in adjusted EBIT. Revenue from the variable products in the Consumer segment was positively affected by the significant drop in elspot prices in September. The last twelve months' EBIT is all time high, at 379 NOKm.
YoY growth in number of deliveries in the Consumer and Business segments amounts to 14%, of which 2% organic. The Extended Alliance concept is growing by 7,672 deliveries QoQ and number of mobile subscriptions grew by 4,282 QoQ.
This quarter, the Group was announced as one of the winners of the United Nations "Momentum for Change" Climate Action Award. Fjordkraft's efforts towards a climate neutral supply chain is named "Klimanjaro", and annual CO2 emissions of about 56,000 tonnes are now being offset as a result of this initiative. Fjordkraft is the first Norwegian company to receive the award, and the award ceremony will take place in Katowice, Poland, 2-14 December 2018.
Kantar TNS' Q3 2018 survey shows that Fjordkraft maintains the position as the number one electricity retail brand in the consumer segment. Fjordkraft has the highest brand awareness in Norway, the highest market share ever measured by Kantar TNS and the best customer satisfaction among the five most well-known brands. On 25 October, Fjordkraft entered into an agreement with BKK AS to purchase the customer portfolio of Etne Elektrisitetslag. The customerportfolio consists of about 1,600 deliveries. Transaction details are comprised by confidentiality by seller's request. The transaction was completed on 30 October 2018.
The Group's reporting structure comprises three operational segments: Consumer, Business and New Growth Initiatives.
At the end of third quarter 2018, the Consumer segment comprised 519.8 thousand electricity deliveries, which represents an organic growth of -23 deliveries from second quarter 2018. The volume sold in third quarter 2018 was 1,126 GWh, an increase of 12% compared to third quarter 2017. Average volume per delivery was 2,166 kWh in third quarter 2018, a 1% decrease from the 2,182 kWh in third quarter 2017.
During the quarter, Fjordkraft has signed an agreement with Consort, a telemarketing and door-to-door sales channel. They will primarily be selling in the Trøndelag area.
Adjusted net revenue in the Consumer segment amounts to 156 NOKm, a YoY growth of 20%. Margin improvement explains 40% of the 20% increase, while volume growth explains about 60%.
Adjusted OPEX amounts to 121 NOKm in the third quarter of 2018, compared to 98 NOKm in the third quarter of 2017. Increased sales and marketing costs and variable costs are the main drivers for the increase.
EBIT adjusted amounts to 35 NOKm in the quarter, which is an improvement of 3 NOKm compared to the third quarter of 2017, representing a YoY growth of 9%.
At the end of third quarter 2018, the Business segment comprised 76.4 thousand electricity deliveries, which represents an organic growth of 682 deliveries from second quarter 2018. The volume sold in third quarter 2018 was 1,118 GWh, an increase of 7% compared to third quarter 2017. Average volume per delivery was 14,693 kWh in third quarter 2018, a 15% decrease from the 17,220 kWh in third quarter 2017. The decrease is due to relatively lower average volume per delivery in the TEM portfolio.
Adjusted net revenue in the Business segment amounts to 65 NOKm, a YoY growth of 23%. About 2/3 of the growth is due to improved margins from power sales and value added services.
Adjusted OPEX amounts to 34 NOKm in the quarter, compared to 29 NOKm in the third quarter of 2017. The main reason for the OPEX growth is increased sales and marketing costs.
EBIT adjusted amounts to 31 NOKm in the quarter, an increase of 8 NOKm from the third quarter of 2017, representing a YoY growth of 35%.
At the end of third quarter 2018, the number of mobile subscribers was 61.2 thousand, which represents an organic growth of 4,282 subscribers from second quarter 2018.
Alliance volume in third quarter 2018 was 713 GWh, which is a 24% YoY increase. Extended Alliance deliveries increased by 7,672 deliveries in the third quarter of 2018.
OPEX adjusted amounted to 15 NOKm, an increase from 14 NOKm in third quarter 2017, due to growth in number of mobile subscribers and Extended Alliance deliveries.
EBIT amounted to -8 NOKm, an improvement from the -12 NOKm in third quarter 2017. The improved EBIT is primarily because of higher net revenue from Mobile.
Figures from the corresponding period the previous year are in brackets, unless otherwise specified.
Gross revenue amounted to 1,329 NOKm (765 NOKm), an increase of 74%, due to higher elspot prices and increased volume sold.
Adjusted net revenue amounted to 227 NOKm (185 NOKm), an increase of 23%. The increase is driven by both improved margins and volume growth.
Adjusted operating expenses amounted to 169 NOKm (141 NOKm), an increase of 19 %. The increase in operating expenses is in line with expectations and is driven by growth in sales and marketing costs and variable costs.
Adjusted EBIT amounted to 58 NOKm (43 NOKm) in the third quarter due to the factors described above.
Net financial income amounted to 1.9 NOKm (2.3 NOKm).
Profit for the period amounted to 26 NOKm (35 NOKm) in the third quarter. For more details on adjustments and tax, please see note 2 and 3.
Other comprehensive (loss)/income for the period, net of tax amounted to 12 NOKm (0 NOKm) in the third quarter 2018 due to actuarial gain on pension obligations. The amount is a preliminary estimate and a complete actuarial calculation will be carried out in Q4 2018.
Cash provided by operating activities was 125 NOKm (374 NOKm). In addition to the underlying cash generation, the decrease in net working capital in the period also contributes to the 125 NOKm in cash provided by operating activities. Net cash used in investing activities was -35 NOKm (-36 NOKm) driven by payments to obtain contract assets. Net cash used in financing activities was NOK -14 NOKm (0 NOKm), consisting of proceeds from borrowings.
The total capital as of 30.09.2018 was 2,485 NOKm (1,468 NOKm), an increase of 1,018 NOKm from Q3 2017. The main drivers for the increase are the acquisition of TrønderEnergi Marked AS, increased value of derivative financial instruments increased trade receivables, driven by volume growth and higher elspot prices. Assets are financed by increased trade payables and longterm debt.
Fjordkraft Holding ASA (through a subsidiary, Fjordkraft AS) has entered into an agreement with BKK AS to purchase the customer portfolio of Etne Elektrsitetslag.
The customer portfolio consists of about 1,600 deliveries, and the agreed purchase price is 3,200 NOK per delivery. The transaction was completed on 30 October 2018.

This comprises information about net cash flows from existing customer contracts and other service contracts, debt service and obligations. After making such assessments, management has a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue its operational existence for the foreseeable future.
In order to consider an acquisition as a business combination, the acquired asset or groups of assets must constitute a business (an integrated set of operations and assets conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return to the investors). The combination consists of inputs and processes applied to these inputs that have the ability to create output.
Acquired businesses are included in the financial statements from the transaction date. The transaction date is defined as the date on which the company achieves control over the financial and operating assets. This date may differ from the actual date on which the assets are transferred.
Comparative figures are not adjusted for acquired, sold or liquidated businesses. For accounting purposes, the acquisition method is used in connection with the purchase of businesses. Acquisition cost equals the fair value of the assets used as consideration, including contingent consideration, equity instruments issued and liabilities assumed in connection with the transfer of control. Acquisition cost is measured against the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities. Identifiable intangible assets are included in connection with acquisitions if they can be separated from other assets or meet the legal contractual criteria. If the acquisition cost at the time of the acquisition exceeds the fair value of the acquired net assets (when the acquiring entity achieves control of the transferring entity), goodwill arises.
If the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired exceeds the acquisition cost on the acquisition date, the excess amount is taken to the Income statement immediately.
Goodwill is not depreciated, but is tested at least annually for impairment. In connection with this, goodwill is allocated to the cash-generating units (CGUs) or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from synergy effects of the acquisition. The allocation of goodwill may vary depending on the basis for its initial recognition.
The estimation of fair value and goodwill may be adjusted up to 12 months after the takeover date if new information has emerged about facts and circumstances that existed at the time of the takeover and which, had they been known, would have affected the calculation of the amounts that were included from that date.
Acquisition-related costs, except costs to issue debt or equity securities, are expensed as incurred.
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year except that income tax expense is recognised in each interim period using the expected weighted average annual income tax rate for the full financial year. Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual profit or loss.
The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing these interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017, except for income taxes and post-employment benefits.
Income tax expense and deferred income tax liability is calculated by applying a weighted average of tax rates across jurisdictions, while in annual financial statements income tax expense and deferred income tax liability is calculated by applying the tax rate for each individual jurisdiction to measures of income for each jurisdiction.
Present value of defined benefit obligations and the fair value of plan assets at the end of each interim reporting period is estimated by extrapolation of the latest actuarial valuation, while in the annual financial statements this estimate is based on an updated actuarial valuation.
The Group provides re-invoicing to its customers related to grid rent. This means that the trade receivables, as shown in th consolidated statement of financial position, in addition to power sales also includes grid rent. This makes the amount of trade receivables relatively high in comparision with the amount of gross revenue as shown in the consolidated statement of profit and loss.

Note 1 Accounting policies
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal financial reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board. The Board examines the Group's performance from a type of services perspective. Segment performance is evaluated based on profit or loss and is measured consistently with profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements.
The Group's reportable segments under IFRS
8 - "Operating Segments" are therefore as follows: -Consumer segment - Sale of electrical power
and related services to private consumers -Business segment - Sale of electrical power and related services to business consumers
Information reported to the chief operating decision maker for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance is focused on the category of customer for each type of activity. No operating segments have been aggregated in arriving at the reportable segments of the Group. The principal categories of customer are direct sales to private consumers, business consumers and alliance partners.
The segment profit measure is adjusted operating profit which is defined as profit before tax earned by each segment without the allocation of non-recurring expenses, depreciation of acquisitions, other gains and losses, interest income, interest expense, and other financial items, net. This is the measure reported to the chief operating decision maker for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as the Group's accounting policies.
All of the Group's revenue is from external parties and is from activities currently carried out in Norway. There are no customers representing more than 10% of revenue.
The tables below is an analysis of the Group's revenue and results by reportable segment. New growth initiatives comprise of other business activities (sale of mobile service to private customers and power sale, included related services, to Alliance partners – referred to as New Growth Initiatives) which are not considered separate operating segments.

1) A large proportion of the Group's final settlement of sales and distribution of electricity is made after the Group has finalised its financial statements. At the date of reporting, the Group recognises electricity revenue and the associated cost of sales based on a best estimate approach. Thus, any estimate deviation related to the previous reporting period is recognised in the following reporting period. Management is of the opinion that the underlying operating profit in the reporting period should be adjusted for such estimate deviations related to previous reporting periods, thus the table below also presents the Group's operating profit before such estimate deviations in the line "Operating profit (before unallocated and estimate deviations)".
2) Other gains and losses, net consist of gains and losses on derivative financial instruments associated with the purchase and sale of electricity.
3) Non-recurring items consists of one-time items as follows:

4) Depreciation of acquisitions consists of depreciation related to customer portfolios and acquisitions of companies. The Group has decided to report the operating profit of the segments adjusted for depreciation of acquisitions. In order to accommodate this, historically reported figures have been adjusted accordingly.
Interim income tax expense is recognised based on management's estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year.

This note explains the judgements and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are recognised and measured at fair value in the financial statements. Changes in fair value are recognised through other gains and losses, net in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Group has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standards. An explanation of each level follows underneath the table.

Note 7 Fair value measurement of financial instruments
There were no transfers between level 1 and 2 for recurring fair value measurements during the period. The Group's policy is to recognise transfers into and transfers out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the reporting period.
Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and trading and available-for-sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.
Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. This is the case for unlisted equity securities.
Specific valuation techniques used to value derivative financial instruments include present value of future cash flows, based on forward prices from Nasdaq OMX Commodities at the balance sheet date. In the case of material long-term contracts, the cash flows are discounted at a discount rate of 0.90 per cent (2017: 0.90 per cent). Valuation method is used for forward contracts and option contracts associated with purchase and sale of electricity. Key inputs to the valuation are discount rates, contract- and market prices.
The Group also has financial instruments which are not measured at fair value in the balance sheet. For the majority of these instruments, the fair values are not materially different to their carrying amounts, since the interest receivable/payable is either close to current market rates or the instruments are short-term in nature. There has not been identified any significant difference between fair value and carrying amout at 30 September 2018.
