The second quarter of 2018 has been eventful. Elspot prices have been very volatile, ranging from 16 to 46 øre/kWh in the quarter. Prices dropped in the second half of April and first half of May, followed by a sharp increase through the last half of May and into June. These kinds of rapid variations can be demanding. However, the Group delivers an adjusted net revenue of 242 NOKm in the quarter, which is an 18% YoY growth. 7 percentage points of the increase is related to the acquisition of TrønderEnergi Marked. Adjusted net revenue the last twelve months amounts to 1,005 NOKm, breaking the NOK 1 billion barrier for the first time ever.
The temperature in the quarter has been higher than normal in all three months, and especially in May. According to The Norwegian Meteorological Institute, the temperature in May was 4,4 degrees Celsius above normal. Recorded temperatures in May have not been this high in the history of the Institute's statistics, which goes back to year 1900. The warmer than normal weather affects electricity consumption, and average volume per delivery in the second quarter decreased by 5% YoY in the Consumer segment and 4% YoY in the Business segment. Still, total volume in the quarter increased by 8% YoY, as a result of the 15% YoY growth in number of electricity deliveries.
Adjusted EBIT in the quarter amounts to 78 NOKm, which is an increase of 4% YoY. Adjusted OPEX in the quarter amounted to 164 NOKm, a YoY growth of 27%. The increase in OPEX is in line with expectations and is driven by growth in sales and marketing costs, customer service costs and losses on receivables.
The Group's reporting structure comprises three operational segments: Consumer, Business and New Growth Initiatives.
At the end of second quarter 2018, the Consumer segment comprised 519.9 thousand electricity deliveries, which represents an organic growth of 1.9 thousand deliveries from first quarter 2018. The volume sold in second quarter 2018 was 1,376 GWh, an increase of 5% compared to second quarter 2017. Average volume per delivery was 2,785 kWh in second quarter 2018, a 5% decrease from the 2,946 kWh in second quarter 2017.
During the quarter, Fjordkraft has entered into a partnership with Spond – a communication platform for organising team sports or other group activities. Spond will be a new sales distribution channel for Fjordkraft, offering Fjordkraft's customers cashback to teams and organisations of their choice.
Adjusted net revenue in the Consumer segment amounts to 174 NOKm, a YoY growth of 20%. Margin improvement explains about three quarters of the 20% increase, while volume growth explains about one quarter.
Adjusted OPEX amounts to 119 NOKm in the second quarter of 2018, compared to 88 NOKm in the second quarter of 2017. Increased sales and marketing costs, customer service costs and losses on receivables are the main drivers.
EBIT adjusted amounts to 55 NOKm in the quarter, which is in line with the second quarter of 2017.
At the end of second quarter 2018, the Business segment comprised 75.8 thousand electricity deliveries, which represents an organic growth of 0.7 thousand deliveries from first quarter 2018. The volume sold in second quarter 2018 was 1,328 GWh, an increase of 12% compared to second quarter 2017. Average volume per delivery was 19,043 kWh in second quarter 2018, a 4% decrease from the 19,820 kWh in second quarter 2017.
Adjusted net revenue in the Business segment amounts to 62 NOKm, a YoY growth of 15%. The growth is primarily because of growth in number of deliveries.
Adjusted OPEX amounts to 32 NOKm in the quarter, compared to 26 NOKm in the second 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 3 NOKm from the second quarter of 2017.
At the end of second quarter 2018, the number of mobile subscribers was 56.9 thousand, which represents an organic growth of 7.6 thousand from first quarter 2018.
Alliance volume in second quarter 2018 was 910 GWh, which is a 21% YoY increase.
OPEX adjusted amounts to 13 NOKm, a decrease from 15 NOKm in second quarter 2017.
EBIT amounts to -8 NOKm, an improvement from the -10 NOKm in second quarter 2017.
Figures from the corresponding period the previous year are in brackets, unless otherwise specified.
Gross revenue amounted to 1,297 NOKm (892 NOKm), an increase of 45%, due to higher elspot prices and increased volume sold.
Adjusted net revenue amounted to 242 NOKm (204 NOKm), an increase of 18%. The increase is driven by both improved margins and volume growth.
Adjusted operating expenses amounted to 164 NOKm (129 NOKm), an increase of 27 %. The increase in operating expenses is in line with expectations and is driven by growth in sales and marketing costs, customer service costs and losses on receivables.
Adjusted EBIT amounted to 78 NOKm (75 NOKm) in the second quarter due to the factors described above.
Net financial income amounted to 0.1 NOKm (2.2 NOKm).
Profit for the period amounted to 54 NOKm (45 NOKm) in the second quarter due to the factors described above.
Cash provided by operating activities was 669 NOKm (55 NOKm). The main reason for the positive cash development from operating activities is a decrease in net working capital in the period. Trade receivables decreased by 1,384 NOKm (341 NOKm) in the second quarter.
Net cash used in investing activities was 296 NOKm (34 NOKm) driven by the acquisition of TrønderEnergi Marked AS. Net cash used in financing activities was NOK -53 NOKm (-120 NOKm), consisting of net outflow from change in overdraft facilities of -331 NOKm and proceeds from borrowings of 278 NOKm.
The total capital as of 30.06.2018 was 2,421 NOKm (1,393 NOKm), an increase of 1,028 NOKm from Q2 2017. The main drivers for the increase are the acquisition of TrønderEnergi Marked AS, increased value of derivative financial instruments and an increase in cash and cash equivalents. Assets are financed by increased trade payables and long-term debt.
Fjordkraft Holding ASA (through a subsidiary, Fjordkraft AS) has entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with TrønderEnergi AS to purchase 100% of the shares of Oppdal Everk Kraftomsetning AS. Oppdal Everk Kraftomsetning AS will be demerged from Oppdal Everk AS and will consist of about 5,200 electricity deliveries.
The acquisition strengthens the Group's position in Mid-Norway and is a good follow-up after the acquisition of TrønderEnergi Marked AS in the spring of 2018.
The agreed purchase price is NOKm 19.375, including net financial assets of 1.0 NOKm, and will be financed by available cash in Fjordkraft. The purchase price does not include working capital.
Cost synergies are expected to be in line with the TrønderEnergi Marked acquisition.
The transaction is expected to be completed 1 October 2018. Oppdal Everk Kraftomsetning AS will be consolidated in the Group accounts from the date of acquisition.
There are no other significant events after the reporting period that has not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

Fjordkraft Fjordkraft Holding ASA and its subsidiaries (together 'the Group') is a supplier of electrical power in Norway. The Group's core business is concentrated at purchase, sales and portfolio management of electrical power to households, private and public companies, and municipalities. In 2017, the Group also became a provider of mobile phone services to private customers in Norway.
Fjordkraft Holding ASA is incorporated and domiciled in Norway. The address of its registered office is Folke Bernadottes Vei 38, 5147 Bergen, Norway.
These interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors for issue on 29 August 2018.
A review of the interim financial statements has been carried out by the independent auditor of the Group.
These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim financial reporting". These interim financial statements do not provide the same scope of information as the annual financial statment and should therefore be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The Group has adopted the going concern basis in preparing its consolidated financial statements. When assessing this assumption, management has assessed all available information about the future. 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.
Note 1 Accounting policies 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. See note 6 for details regarding assets from acquisitions.
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.

On 18 April 2018 Fjordkraft Holding ASA (through the subsidiary Fjordkraft AS) acquired 100.0% of the issued shares in TrønderEnergi Marked AS, a leading electricity retailer in the Trøndelag-area, for consideration of NOKt 280 351. The acquisition is expected to increase the group's market share and reduce costs through economies of scale.
Details of the purchase consideration, the net assets acquired and goodwill are as follows:
| Total purchase consideration | 280 351 |
|---|---|
| Interest, paid cash | 2 007 |
| Purchase price shares, paid cash | 278 344 |
| NOK in thousands |
There is no contingent consideration included in this acquisition.
As of 18 April 2018 the assets and liabilities recognised as a result of the acquisition are as follows:
| NOK in thousands | Fair value |
|---|---|
| Property, plant and equipment (note 5) | 741 |
| Customer relationships (note 6) | 107 118 |
| Other intangible assets (note 6) | 12 066 |
| Other non-current assets | 10 051 |
| Other non-current financial assets | 70 |
| Total non-current assets | 130 046 |
| Trade receivables | 158 592 |
| Derivative financial instruments | 7 966 |
| Other current assets | 48 073 |
| Cash and cash equivalents | 26 240 |
| Total current assets | 240 871 |
| Total assets | 370 917 |
| Net employee defined benefit plan liabilities | 2 701 |
| Deferred tax liabilities (note 3) | 31 777 |
| Provisions for liabilities | 1 014 |
| Total non-current liabilities | 35 492 |
| Trade and other payables | 1 382 |
| Overdraft facilities | 20 102 |
| Derivative financial instruments | 6 833 |
| Social secutiry and other taxes | 32 198 |
| Other current liabilities | 145 457 |
| Total current liabilities | 205 972 |
Total liabilities 241 464
| Net identifiable assets acquired | 129 453 |
|---|---|
| Add: Goodwill | 150 898 |
| In total | 280 351 |
The goodwill is attributable to TrønderEnergi Marked AS's strong position and profitability in the electricity retailer market and synergies expected to arise after the company's acquisition of the new subsidiary. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. See note 6 above for the changes in goodwill as a result of the acquisition.
Deferred tax of NOKt 27 412 is related to the fair value adjustments of customer relationships and other intangible assets.
Other current liabilities contains dividends of NOKt 37 242 approved by the General Meeting of TrønderEnergi Marked AS prior to the acquisition. The dividend was paid after the acquisition and is therefore included in other current liabilities in The Group's cash flow in Q2.
Acquisition-related costs of NOKt 2 485 are included in administrative expenses in profit or loss.
The fair value of trade receivables is NOKt 158 592. The gross contractual amount for trade receivables due is NOKt 161 436, of which NOKt 2 844 is expected to be uncollectable. The fair value of other receivables recognised is considered to be equal to the gross contractual amount.
The acquired business contributed revenues of NOKt 103 398 and EBIT adjusted of NOKt 4 849 to the Group for the period from 18 April 2018 to 30 June 2018. This excludes the depreciations of customer relationships and other intangible assets from the acquisition, NOKt -8 876 in the period, and other gains and losses related to derivatives of NOKt 1 711. The Group does not allocate the depreciations to its segments, as this, in The Group's opinion, better represents the underlying profitability of the segments. In total, the contribution to the Groups EBIT reported including the depreciations was a net loss of NOKt 2 317.
If the acquisition had occurred on 1 January 2018, consolidated revenue and consolidated profit after tax for the half-year ended 30 June 2018 would have been NOKt 3 435 606 and NOKt 152 963 respectively.
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 8 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 June 2018.

REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed interim financial statement of Fjordkraft Holding ASA and the Fjordkraft Group. The condensed interim financial statement consists of the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of 30 June 2018, the condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss, the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss), the condensed statement of changes in equity and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the sixmonth period then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes. Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs), and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying consolidated interim financial information does not present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the entity as at 30 June 2018, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the sixmonth period then ended in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
