Dear fellow shareholders,
During the first nine months of 2017, our adjusted net asset value increased by 14 percent, including dividends added back. Our total shareholder return amounted to 21 percent, while the SIXRX Return Index advanced by 12 percent. During the third quarter, the corresponding net asset value growth was 1 percent. Our total shareholder return was -1 percent, while the SIXRX Return Index was up by 2 percent.
Currently we are seeing a solid development in the global economy, although the picture differs between geographies and segments. A number of geopolitical risks remain and we are still in the dark when it comes to the potential effects of the gradual unwinding of the ultralight monetary policies. Given the macroeconomic uncertainty, continued focus on improving agility and preparing for different scenarios remains key for us and our companies.
Listed Core Investments generated a total return of 2 percent during the third quarter, mainly driven by Atlas Copco and Wärtsilä, while Ericsson weighed on performance.
During the quarter, we acquired additional shares in Ericsson for SEK 1.2 bn. Just after the end of the quarter, Ericsson's Nomination Committee proposed Ronnie Leten as the new Chairman of the Ericsson board. Ronnie Leten has a very strong track record of creating shareholder value and we believe that he is the right person to lead the company's board going forward. With recent management changes, the strategic direction with increased business focus, and the announced board proposals, we believe that important steps have been taken to realize the company's long-term potential. As a long-term owner, we are committed to actively supporting Ericsson on this journey.
A new management team and five board members were appointed for Epiroc, which is planned to be listed in 2018.
Wärtsilä received a number of important orders within the Energy segment in growth markets such as Bangladesh and Indonesia.
Some significant acquisitions were announced by our companies. ABB announced the USD 2.6 bn. acquisition of GE Industrial Solutions, which will strengthen the company's position in electrification, especially in North America. Nasdaq announced the USD 0.7 bn. acquisition of eVestment, an industry leading data, content and analytics platform for the investment industry.
Mölnlycke reported organic sales growth of 1 percent in constant currency. Underlying profitability was lower than last year, but improved sequentially. During the quarter, Mölnlycke distributed EUR 450 m. to Patricia Industries, reflecting the company's continued strong cash flow generation.
Sales growth was weak in the quarter, and Mölnlycke is increasing its focus on bringing forward and launching new innovative products, and on capturing growth opportunities in Emerging Markets.
Permobil reported organic sales growth of 3 percent in constant currency, and the margin improved. Encouragingly, the demand for the new wheelchair models continued to develop favorably.
Laborie grew 3 percent organically in constant currency, with margins improving compared to last year.
Aleris' organic sales growth amounted to 1 percent in constant currency, and profitability improved compared to last year. The initiatives to improve efficiency and build Aleris into a high-quality service provider continue.
BraunAbility reported organic sales growth of 11 percent in constant currency, driven by the roll-out of new products. The margin was essentially flat.
Within EQT, activity remained high. The value of our investments in EQT increased by 3 percent in constant currency in the quarter, and the net cash flow to Investor amounted to SEK 0.3 bn.
Our operating priorities: to grow net asset value, operate efficiently and pay a steadily rising dividend, remain firm.
In our work as an engaged owner, sustainability is a prioritized area. Of course, we must operate in a sustainable way at Investor, but our biggest impact comes through our active work in the boards of our companies. Our view is clear: sustainability is never an obstacle for long-term profitable growth, it is a prerequisite. Companies that are at the forefront within sustainability, both when it comes to processes and its integration into the business, improve the odds of winning market share and attracting the best talents, key ingredients in achieving long-term profitable and sustainable growth.
With leverage of some 3 percent, our financial flexibility is strong. We continue to look for attractive investment opportunities, but in this market, characterized by fierce competition for assets, we will stay focused and disciplined. We will invest when we find the right opportunities at the right prices, always with the ambition to continue to create long-term value for you, dear fellow shareholders.

| Business area | Valuation methodology |
|---|---|
| Listed Core Investments | Share price (bid) for the class of shares held by Investor. |
| Patricia Industries | |
| Subsidiaries | Reported value based on the acquisition method. The estimated market values are mainly based on valuation multiples for relevant listed peers and indices. Other methodologies may also be used, for example relating to real estate assets. New investments are valued at invested amount during the first 18 months following the acquisition. |
| Partner-owned investments |
Reported value based on the equity method. The estimated market values are mainly based on valuation mulitples for relevant listed peers and indices. New investments are valued at invested amount during the first 18 months following the acquisition. |
| Financial investments | Unlisted holdings at multiple or third-party valuation, listed shares at share price (bid). |
| EQT | Unlisted holdings at multiple or third-party valuation, listed shares at share price (bid). |
In addition to reported values, which are in accordance with IFRS, Investor provides estimated market values of the wholly-owned subsidiaries and partner-owned investments within Patricia Industries in order to facilitate the evaluation of Investor's net asset value. This supplementary, non-GAAP, information also increases the consistency between the valuation of Listed Core Investments and our major wholly-owned subsidiaries and 3 Scandinavia.
While the estimated market values might not necessarily reflect our view of the intrinsic values, they reflect how the stock market values similar companies.
The estimated market values are mainly based on valuation multiples, typically Enterprise Value (EV)/LTM* operating profit, for relevant listed peers and indices. While we focus on EBITA when evaluating the performance of our companies, for valuation purposes, EBITDA multiples are more commonly available, and therefore often used. From the estimated EV, net debt is deducted, and the remaining equity value is multiplied by Patricia Industries' share of capital.
Operating profit is adjusted to reflect, for example, pro forma effects of closed add-on acquisitions and certain nonrecurring items. An item is only viewed as non-recurring if it exceeds a certain amount set for each company, is unlikely to affect the company again, and does not result in any future benefit or cost.
Investments made less than 18 months ago are valued at the invested amount.

On September 30, 2017, Investor owned a total of 2,477,915 of its own shares (2,793,387). The net decrease in holdings of own shares is attributable to the purchase of own shares and transfer of shares and options within Investor's longterm variable remuneration program.
During the first quarter, the purchase price allocation was changed and goodwill and deferred tax liability was reduced with SEK 400 m. due to a finalization of analysis of local tax consequenses as a result of the acquisition.
During the year, BraunAbility, Permobil and Laborie acquired four smaller entities. The aggregated purchase price amounts to SEK 389 m. and preliminary goodwill amounts to a total of SEK 335 m.
Total pledged assets amounts to SEK 9.2 bn. (9.9), of which SEK 6.4 bn. refers to pledged assets in the subsidiaries BraunAbility and Laborie, related to outstanding loans corresponding to SEK 0.8 bn. and SEK 1.0 bn.
No material changes in contingent liabilities during the period.
Three of Investor AB's subsidiaries have historically claimed deduction for certain interest expenses which has been denied by the tax authorities and the Swedish Administrative Court. Investor believes that these deductions have been claimed rightfully and has appealed the denial. No provision has been made. If the appeals would not be successful, it would result in an additional tax expense of SEK 530 m. This amount is reported as an other contingent liability.
This Interim Management Statement has in all material aspects been prepared in accordance with NASDAQ Stockholm's guidelines for preparing interim management statements. The accounting policies that have been applied for the consolidated income statement and consolidated balance sheet, are in agreement with the accounting policies used in the preparation of the company's most recent annual report.
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers will be applied from January 1 2018. None of the new standards will have any significant effect on the accounting for Investor.
From July 3, 2016 Investor applies the ESMA Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures (APM). An APM is a financial measure of historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows, other than a financial measure defined or specified in the applicable financial reporting framework. For Investor's consolidated accounts, this typically means IFRS. APMs are disclosed when they complement performance measures defined by IFRS. The basis for disclosed APMs are that they are used by management to evaluate the financial performance and in so believed to give analysts and other stakeholders valuable information.
Definitions of all APMs used are found in the Annual Report 2016 and on www.investorab.com/investors-media/investorin-figures/definitions.
Reconciliations to the financial statements for the APMs that are not directly identifiable from the financial statements and considered significant to specify, are disclosed on page 22. Reconciliation of APMs for individual subsidiaries or business areas are not disclosed, since the purpose with these are to give deeper financial information without being directly linked to the financial information for the Group that is presented according to applicable financial reporting framework.
Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this Interim Management Report may not add up precisely to the totals provided and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures.

All valuations in level 3 are based on assumptions and judgments that management considers to be reasonable based on the circumstances prevailing at the time. Changes in assumptions may result in adjustments to reported values and the actual outcome may differ from the estimates and judgments that were made.
The unlisted part of Financial Investments' portfolio companies, corresponds to 68 percent of the portfolio value. Part of the unlisted portfolio is valued based on comparable companies, and the value is dependent on the level of the multiples. The multiple ranges provided in the note show the minimum and maximum value of the actual multiples applied in these valuations. A 10 percent change of the multiples would have an effect on the Financial Investments portfolio value of approximately SEK 200 m. For the derivatives, a parallel shift of the interest rate curve by one percentage point would affect the value by approximately SEK 1,000 m.
The table below indicates how fair value is measured for the financial instruments recognized at fair value in the Balance Sheet. The financial instruments are presented in three categories, depending on how the fair value is measured:
Level 1: According to quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments
Level 2: According to directly or indirectly observable inputs that are not included in level 1
Level 3: According to inputs that are unobservable in the market
