2 FASTIGHETS AB BALDER · INTERIM REPORT JANUARY-SEPTEMBER 2017

Comments by the CEO

Dear shareholder,

Profit from property management in Q3, attributable to the parent company's shareholders, amounted to SEK 760m, corresponding to an increase of 24 % per ordinary share to SEK 3.94. The increase was generated through a larger property portfolio with slightly higher rents per sqm, a better surplus ratio and good financing conditions.

In terms of financing, we carried out two issues in the Eurobond market during the quarter, of which one was a senior unsecured bond with maturity in 2026 and a fixed interest rate of 1.95 % as well as a hybrid bond with a fixed interest rate of 3.13 %. We used the proceeds from the hybrid bond to retire our Preference shares just after the end of the quarter.

The property market

The property market in the Nordic region still feels stable with strong interest from investors and we usually see tough competition for attractive properties. The part of the market where we have noticed an increased supply and a more uncertain price level is the market for certain types of retail properties and for expensive residential building rights. The price of residential building rights has increased strongly in recent years in some places so a certain degree of correction does not feel completely unexpected. However, I am still optimistic about the residential segment over time.

In conclusion

I also remain optimistic about Balder's long-term performance, based on our organisation, financing possibilities and our many different investments options.

Erik Selin Chief Executive Officer

Current earning capacity

Balder presents its earning capacity on a twelve-month basis in the table below. It is important to note that the current earning capacity should not be placed on a par with a forecast for the coming 12 months. For instance, the earning capacity contains no estimate of rental, vacancy, currency or interest rate changes.

Balder's income statement is also impacted by the development in the value of the real estate portfolio as well as future property acquisitions and/or property divestments. Additional items affecting the operating result are changes in value of derivatives. None of the above has been considered in the current earning capacity.

The earning capacity is based on the real estate portfolio's contracted rental income, estimated property costs during a normal year as well as administrative costs. The costs of the interest-bearing liabilities are based on the group's average interest rate level including the effect of derivative instruments. The tax is calculated using the effective tax rate during each period.

Results, income and costs

Profit from property management

Profit from property management for the period amounted to SEK 2,401m (1,911), of which effect of changes in exchange rates amounted to SEK 20m. Profit from property management attributable to parent company shareholders increased by 27 % and amounted to SEK 2,056m (1,615), which corresponds to an increase per ordinary share by 25 % to SEK 10.59 (8.49). Profit from property management includes SEK 425m (294) in respect of associated companies.

Net profit after tax

Net profit after tax for the period amounted to SEK 5,430m (3,389). Net profit after tax for the period attributable to parent company shareholders amounted to SEK 4,971m (2,938), corresponding to SEK 26.78 per ordinary share (16.16). Profit before tax was affected by changes in value in respect of properties of SEK 3,582m (2,721), changes in value of interest rate derivatives of SEK 160m (–426) and profit from participations in associated companies of SEK 741m (355).

Rental income

Rental income increased by 10 % to SEK 4,357m (3,946), of which the effect of changes in exchange rates was SEK 50m. The increase was primarily due to a changed property portfolio. The leasing portfolio was estimated to have a rental value on 30 September of SEK 6,191m (5,766). The average rental level for the entire real estate portfolio amounted to SEK 1,663/sq.m. (1,617) excl. project properties.

Rental income shows a considerable diversification of risks as regards tenants, sectors and locations. The economic occupancy rate amounted to 96 % (95) on 30 September. The total rental value of unlet areas at the end of the period amounted to SEK 271m (296) on an annual basis.

Property costs

Property costs amounted to SEK 1,271m (1,269) during the period, of which the effect of changes in exchange rates was SEK 15m.

Net operating income increased by 15 % to SEK 3,086m (2,677), which implies a surplus ratio of 71 % (68). Operating costs normally vary with the seasons. The first and fourth quarters have higher costs than the other quarters, while the third quarter usually has the lowest cost level.

Changes in value of investment properties

Balder carried out an individual valuation on 30 September of the entire real estate portfolio, see page 9. Unrealised changes in value during the period amounted to SEK 3,444m (2,659). Realised changes in value amounted to SEK 138m (62).

The average yield requirement as of 30 September amounted to 5.0 % (5.3), which is 0.3 percentage points lower than at year-end. The change in value during the period was attributable to improved net operating income and a reduced yield requirement.

Management and administrative costs

Management and administrative costs amounted to SEK 405m (358) during the period, of which the effect of changes in exchange rates was SEK 6m.

Participations in the profits of associated companies

Balder owns property managing and project developing associated companies and 44.1 % in Collector AB (publ) which is listed. Brinova Fastigheter AB (publ) is also listed and Balder's share amounts to 25.5 %. In order to clarify these associated companies value in Balder, Balder also reports a consolidated statement of financial position including listed associated companies at market value, see page 5.

During the period, Balder has invested in SHH Bostad AB. SHH is a residential development company that builds sustainable rental apartments and tenant-owned apartments at reasonable prices in cities with housing shortages. Balder's share amounts to 20 % of the ordinary shares. During the third quarter, the acquisition of 56 % of Serena Properties AB has been approved by the EU Competition Authority, and Balder has taken possession of the shares. The company owns 23 retail properties in Finland at a total market value of approximately EUR 200m.

Profit from participations in associated companies amounted to SEK 741m (355) during the period and Balder's participation in the associated companies profit from property management amounted to SEK 425m (294).

Profit before tax was impacted by unrealised changes in value in respect of properties and interest rate derivatives of SEK 500m (161). The tax expense for the period amounted to SEK –184m (–100).

Net financial items and changes in value of derivatives

Net financial items amounted to SEK –711m (–709), of which the effect of changes in exchange rates was SEK –9m. Changes in value of interest rate derivatives amounted to SEK 160m (–426). The positive change in value of derivatives during the period is due to the fact that the interest rates have risen during the period. Unrealised changes in value do not affect the cash flow.

Net financial items are equivalent to borrowing at an average interest rate of 1.8 % (2.1) during the period, including the effect of accrued interest from interest rate derivatives.

Taxes

Balder's tax cost amounted to SEK –1,029m (–878) of which SEK –156m (–116) is current tax for the period, mainly attributable to the consolidation of Sato Oyj, and also a deferred tax expense of SEK –874m (–762). The deferred tax expense for the period has been positively affected by property divestments through company. Previously deferred tax entered as a liabilityhas been reversed. Current tax attributable to parent company shareholders amounted to SEK –84m (–68).

The group's deferred tax liability has been calculated as the value of the net of fiscal deficits and the temporary differences between the carrying amounts and values for tax purposes of properties (which arose after the aquisition) and interest rate derivatives. Deferred tax liabilities amounted to SEK 6,678m (4,833).

Cash flow

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital amounted to SEK 1,778m (1,516). Investing activities have burdened the cash flow by SEK –3,632m (–5,331).

During the period, acquisition of properties of SEK –3,905m (–4,416), investments in existing properties and projects of SEK –2,262m (–1,532), investments in property, plant and equipment, financial investments, associated companies and transactions with non-controlling interests SEK –435m (–610), dividends paid preference shares of SEK –150m (–150), dividend paid to non-controlling interests SEK 0m (107) and realised changes derivatives SEK –417m (–) adds up to SEK –7,169m (–6,815).

These have been financed through cash flow from operating activities of SEK 1,636m (1,971), by property divestments of SEK 2,830m (1,001), financial investments of SEK 8m (225), associated companies SEK120m (–), share issue SEK 0m (682), share issue in subsidiary Sato Oyj SEK 0m (420), dividend paid from associated companies SEK 13m (–) and net borrowings of SEK 6,300m (3,524), which adds up to SEK 10,905m (7,822).

Total cash flow for the period amounted to SEK 3,737m (1,008). In addition to unutilised credit facilities of SEK 5,827m (4,853), the group's cash and cash equivalents, financial investments and unutilised overdraft facilities amounted to SEK 5,535m (2,209) on 30 September.

Profit from property

management included SEK 160m (115) in respect of associated companies. Rental income amounted to SEK 1,475m (1,381) and property costs amounted to SEK 366m (414), which meant that net operating income increased by 15 % to SEK 1,109m (967), of which the effect of changes in exchange rates has affected the operating surplus with SEK 13m. The surplus ratio amounted to 75 % (70).

Net profit after tax for the period amounted to SEK 1,464m (1,430). Profit after tax attributable to parent company shareholders amounted to SEK 1,271m (1,205) corresponding to SEK 6.78 per ordinary share (6.69).

Changes in real estate portfolio

The value of Balder's real estate portfolio is based on internal valuations. The properties in Sweden, Denmark and Norway have been valued using the cash flow based method. In Finland, in addition to the cash flow based method, the sales comparison method and valuation at acquisition cost are used. On 30 September, Balder's average yield requirement amounted to 5.0 % (5.3) excluding project and development properties, which is 0.3 percentage points lower than at year-end.

In order to quality-assure its internal valuations, Balder regularly allows parts of its portfolio to be externally valued during the period or at each year-end. Historically, deviations between external and internal valuations have been insignificant.

Project real estate

On 30 September, Balder had ongoing residential projects with an expected total investment of SEK 8 billion, of which about SEK 4 billion was already invested. The most large scale investments are in Copenhagen and Helsinki and mainly relate to condominiums for rent. In Copenhagen, there are currently about 1,200 apartments under construction as well as about 1,000 apartments in Helsinki.

Unrealised changes in value

The overall carrying amount of Balder's properties amoun- ted to SEK 92,883m (79,875) on 30 September. The unrealised change in value during the period amounted to SEK 3,444m (2,659) and was attributable to improved net operating income and lower yield.

Investments, acquisitions and divestments

During the period, a total of SEK 6,033m (8,242) was invested, of which SEK 3,771m (6,710) related to acquisitions and SEK 2,262m (1,532) related to investments in existing properties and projects. Properties with a sales value of SEK 2,873m (1,308) were divested during the period. The majority of the sales during the period refers to the properties in Tranås, Falköping, Arboga and Köping. The realised change in value from property sales amounted to SEK 138m (62). The change in the real estate portfolio during the period is presented in the table below.

Customers

In order to limit the risk of lower rental income and consequently a weakened occupancy rate, Balder strives to develop long-term relationships with the company's existing customers. Balder has a good diversification as regards the distribution between commercial properties and residential properties as well as the geographical distribution. The diversification strengthens the possibilities of maintaining a steady and satisfactory occupancy rate. Balder's commercial leases have an average lease term of 7.5 years (6.5). Balder's 10 largest leases represent 5.5 % (5.9) of total rental income and the average lease term amounts to 11.4 years (12.7).

No individual lease accounts for more than 0.8 % (0.9) of Balder's total rental income and no individual customer accounts for more than 4.3 % (2.6) of total rental income.

Definitions

The company presents a number of financial metrics in the interim report that are not defined according to IFRS (so-called Alternative Performance Measures according to ESMA's guidelines). These performance measures provide valuable supplementary information to investors, the company's management and other stakeholders since they facilitate effective evaluation and analysis of the company's financial position and performance. These alternative performance measures are not always comparable with measures used by other companies and shall therefore be considered as a complement to measures defined according to IFRS. Fastighets AB Balder will apply these alternative performance measures consistently over time. The key ratios are alternative performance measures according to ESMA's guidelines unless otherwise stated. A description follows below of how Fastighets AB Balder's key ratio's are defined and calculated.
