2 FASTIGHETS AB BALDER · INTERIM REPORT JANUARY-SEPTEMBER 2016

Comments by the CEO

Dear shareholders

Profit from property management for the parent company's shareholders amounted to SEK 600m during Q3, corresponding to SEK 3.18 per ordinary share. This is equivalent to an increase of 6.5 % compared to the same period of last year. If it seems like a low percentage increase that is a correct observation. The explanation is that non-recurring income of SEK 50m was included in the net financial income in last year's Q3 result. The increase between the years, if we adjust for this non-recurring income, becomes 19 % instead (3.18 compared with 2.68, which feels a bit better straight away).

During Q3, we reached an agreement with Anders Hedin to acquire all properties in I. A. Hedin Fastighet AB. The property value including investments in progress amounted to SEK 4,150m and thus it constitutes one of the largest acquisitions that Balder has carried out to date. The properties are mainly rented by the Hedin Bil Group, which was founded in 1985. Since then, it has successfully grown to become Sweden's second largest company in the motor trade with related business activities. Part of the purchase

price will be paid through an issue of shares and after the completion of the transaction, Anders Hedin will become one of our largest shareholders. For our associated company Brinova, the final day of the quarter marked the first day of trading in its shares on the First North marketplace. Brinova feels like a great company and I look forward to participating in its development for many years to come.

It is also worth mentioning that on 6 October, we agreed to become a 25%-owner of "Culture Casbah" and adjacent residential quarters in Malmö. The transaction requires the approval of various authorities in the City of Malmö.

All in all, I can say that most things in our company are developing positively and we are working hard as usual.

It feels like our best days are yet to come.

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 1,911m (1,298). Profit from property management attributable to parent company shareholders increased by 24 % and amounted to SEK 1,615m (1,298), which corresponds to an increase per ordinary share by 20 % to SEK 8.49 (7.07). Profit from property management includes SEK 294m (329) in respect of associated companies.

Net profit after tax

Net profit after tax for the period amounted to SEK 3,389m (2,410). Net profit after tax for the period attributable to parent company shareholders amounted to SEK 2,938m (2,410) corresponding to SEK 16.16 per ordinary share (13.92). Profit before tax was affected by changes in value in respect of properties of SEK 2,721m (1,371), changes in value of interest rate derivatives of SEK —426m (30) and profit from participations in associated companies of SEK 355m (472).

Rental income

Rental income increased by 94 % to SEK 3,946m (2,031). The increase was primarily due to Sato Oyj, whose income statement was consolidated for the first time from January 1, 2016. The leasing portfolio was estimated to have a rental value on 30 September of SEK 5,766m (2,795). The average rental level for the entire real estate portfolio amounted to SEK 1,617/sq.m. (1,333) excl. project properties.

Rental income shows a considerable diversification of risks as regards tenants, sectors and locations. The economic occupancy rate amounted to 95 % (95) on 30 September. The total rental value of unlet areas at the end of the period amounted to SEK 296m (139) on an annual basis.

Property costs

Property costs amounted to SEK 1,269m (596) during the period. The increase in property costs was mainly due to the consolidation of Sato Oyj.

Net operating income increased by 87 % to SEK 2,677m (1,435), which implies a surplus ratio of 68 % (71). 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. Unrealised changes in value during the period amounted to SEK 2,659m (1,307). Realised changes in value amounted to SEK 62m (64).

The average yield requirement as of 30 September amounted to 5.3 % (5.3), which is 0.1 percentage point lower compared with year-end. The change in value during the period was attributable to improved net operating income and a slightly reduced yield requirement.

Management and administrative costs

Management and administrative costs amounted to SEK 358m (135) during the period. The increase was mainly due to the consolidation of Sato Oyj.

Participations in the profit of associated companies

Balder owns property managing and project developing associated companies and 44.1 % in Collector AB (publ) which is listed. During September even Balders associated company Brinova Fastigheter AB (publ) was listed. 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 49 % of the shares in Sjaelsö Management ApS were acquired. Sjaelsö Management is one of the major actors in project development and construction management in Denmark.

Profit from participations in associated companies amounted to SEK 355m (472) and Balder's participation in the associated companies profit from property management amounted to SEK 294m (329).

Profit before tax was impacted by unrealised changes in value in respect of properties and interest rate derivatives of SEK 161m (108).

Net financial items and changes in value of derivatives

Net financial items amounted to SEK –709m (–332) and changes in value of interest rate derivatives amounted to SEK –426m (30). The negative change in value of derivatives during the period is due to the fact that the interest rates have fallen during the year. Unrealised changes in value do not affect the cash flow.

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

Taxes

Balder's tax cost for the period amounted to SEK 878m (432), of which SEK 116m (3) is current tax for the period, which is mainly attributable to the consolidation of Sato Oyj, and also a deferred tax expense of SEK 762m (429).

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 and interest rate derivatives. Deferred tax liabilities amounted to SEK 4,833m (1,975).

Third quarter 2016

Profit from property management for the third quarter of 2016 increased by 33 % and amounted to SEK 712m (535). Profit from property management attributable to parent company shareholders for the third quarter of 2016 increased by 12 % and amounted to SEK 600m (535) which corresponds to an increase per ordinary share of 6 % to SEK 3.18 (2.99). Profit from property management included SEK 115m (148) in respect of associated companies. Rental income amounted to SEK 1,381m (661) and property costs amounted to SEK 414m (157), which meant that net operating income increased by 92 % to SEK 967m (503). The increase compared to the same period last year is mainly due to the consolidation of Sato Oyj from 1 January 2016. The surplus ratio amounted to 70 % (76). The decline in the surplus ratio is due to the consolidation of Sato Oyj, which primarily owns residential properties, with generally higher property costs compared to commercial properties.

Net profit after tax for the period amounted to SEK 1,430m (815). Profit after tax attributable to parent company shareholders amounted to SEK 1,205 (815) corresponding to SEK 6.69 per ordinary share (4.71). The result was affected by changes in value in respect of properties of SEK 1,070m (578), changes in value of interest rate derivatives of SEK 3m (–112) and profit from participations in associated companies of SEK 158m (147). The average yield requirement on 30 September amounted to 5.3 % which is 0.1 percentage points lower compared to 30 June 2016.

Cash flow

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 5.3 % (5.3) excluding project- and development properties.

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 7,500m, of which about SEK 4,300m was already invested. The most large scale investments are in Copenhagen and Helsinki and mainly relate to condominiums for rent.

The overall carrying amount of Balder's properties amounted to SEK 79,875m (39,895) on 30 September. The unrealised change in value during the period amounted to SEK 2,659m (1,307) and was attributable to improved net operating income and slightly lower yield.

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 6.5 years (6.4). Balder's 10 largest leases represent 5.9 % (10.2) of total rental income and the average lease term amounts to 12.7 years (13.3).

No individual lease accounts for more than 0.9 % (1.6) of Balder's total rental income and no individual customer accounts for more than 2.6 % (4.9) of total rental income.

Gothenburg 3 November 2016

Erik Selin Chief Executive Officer Review report of condensed interim financial information (interim report) prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and Chapter 9 of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) for Fastighets AB Balder (publ), corp. id. no. 556525-6905 as of 30 September 2016 and for the nine-month period that ended on this date. The Board of Directors and the President are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

The focus and scope of the review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements, ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review of the interim report consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review has a different focus and is substantially smaller in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISA) and other generally accepted auditing practices. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, the conclusion expressed based on a review does not constitute the same level of assurance as a conclusion based on an audit.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that give us reason to believe that the interim report, in all material respects, is not prepared for the Group in compliance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and for the Parent Company in compliance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.
