INTERIM REPORT 2016 JANUARY–JUNE

EBITDA continues to improve

Eniro continues to focus on increased efficiency. Total operating costs were SEK 374 M lower in the first half of 2016 compared with the same period last year. EBITDA improved for the second consecutive quarter and amounted to SEK 116 M (49), corresponding to a margin of 23.4% (7.7%). Adjusted EBITDA for the first half of 2016 amounted to SEK 237 M (200), corresponding to an increase of 19% and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 23.7% (15.8%). Revenue decreased by 22% during the quarter compared with the same period last year, however, compared with the first quarter, revenue development was more stable, with a decline of 2%.

Eniro's new board of directors has initiated an in-depth analysis of the company's businesses and strategy. As part of this work, a decision was taken during the quarter to perform new impairment testing of the company's intangible assets. The testing resulted in a need to recognise impairment losses of SEK -873 M.

The Board of Directors has appointed Örjan Frid as new President and CEO of Eniro AB. It is the Board's assessment that new leadership is required in order to successfully manage the necessary corporate change program that the new Board envisages. The Board would like to thank Stefan Kercza for his valuable contributions to the company in the role as CEO since 2014 and as a member of Group Management since 2011.

Chairman's comments

New board of directors conducts review of the company

Since the middle of the second quarter, Eniro's new board of directors has been carrying out a comprehensive analysis of Eniro and the company's ability to build a profitable digital advertising business based on the attractive user traffic that is generated on the company's platforms. As part of this work, the Board conducted a review of the value of the company's intangible assets, based on management's forecasts, which resulted in impairment losses of SEK -873 M during the quarter.

With reference to the corporate change program that the new board envisions, a decision has been made regarding new leadership. The Board of Directors would like to thank Mr. Stefan Kercza for his valuable contributions as Eniro's President and CEO since 2014 and member of the Group Management since 2011. Under Mr. Kercza's leadership Eniro has completed many extensive and important organizational changes, as well as the implementation of efficiency measures in order to stabilize the level of earnings.

The Board of Directors has appointed Mr. Örjan Frid as the new President and CEO of the Eniro Group. Mr. Frid has more than 25 years of experience from turnaround situations in a large number of Swedish companies in various industries. He has previously served as interim CEO, COO and project manager in organizations that were subject to significant change and restructuring. Mr. Frid has also worked as CEO of Patria Helicopters AB, Eneas Energy AB and TradeDoubler AB. Mr. Frid is a member of Eniro's board of directors that was elected at the AGM in April this year.

Increase in EBITDA to SEK 116 M during the second quarter

Operating revenue amounted to SEK 496 M during the second quarter, which corresponds to a decrease of 22% compared with the same period last year. Compared with the first quarter, however, revenue development was more stable, with a decline by 2%. A number of initiatives have contributed to a stabilization of revenue during the second quarter.

As a result of internal efficiency programs, EBITDA improved for the second consecutive quarter to SEK 116 M (49). The EBITDA margin amounted to 23.4%, compared with 7.7% (15.1% adjusted for restructuring costs) during the second quarter of 2015. For the first half of the year, adjusted EBITDA amounted to SEK 237 M (200), representing an increase of 19% and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 23.7% (15.8%). Total operating costs were SEK 374 M lower in the first half of 2016 compared with the same period last year.

Change is a part of Eniro's day-to-day life

Eniro is working intensively to improve revenue growth through continuous product development, leveraging the existing customer base and increasing efficiency of the sales organization. Eniro's operations are defined by an ongoing balancing act between reactive measures to streamline businesses in competitive markets undergoing structural decline, and proactive measures to build businesses with strong growth potential. This balancing act represents a challenge for the company, not least because it is difficult to accelerate and brake simultaneously. The positive effects from some of the investments may not be visible immediately, but are necessary to strengthen the company's long-term competitiveness.

During the autumn, the Board will finalize the analysis of Eniro's prospects. The work includes a review of the Group's strategy, corporate structure, profitability and capital structure.

Change is a part of Eniro's day-to-day life and I am certain that Eniro's knowledgeable and dedicated employees will be successful in the continued reshaping of the company.

Second quarter results 2016

Revenue

Operating revenue decreased by 22% to SEK 496 M (634) during the second quarter of 2016. Currency effects on revenue, mainly a weaker Norwegian krona, were negative by SEK -15 M (5).

Prepaid revenue amounted to SEK 468 M (564) at the end of the quarter, a decrease of 17% compared with the level on June 30, 2015.

Digital search

Digital search revenue decreased by 20% to SEK 373 M (465).

Desktop/Mobile search

Revenue from Desktop/Mobile search decreased by 16% to SEK 339 M (405).

Revenue was negatively affected by teething problems in the new Nordic sales organization. Further fine tuning of the organizations in Sweden and Denmark was therefore required during the spring.

The sales decline in Norway is partly attributable to currency effects. The sales organization in this market works relatively well.

Poland continues to perform well, and sales are in line with expectations.

Revenue from our financial search offerings performed below expectations during the second quarter. However, in terms of visitor numbers we are satisfied, with an increase of 3% during the quarter. Toward the end of the year we will be launching a number of new functions that we hope will spark greater interest from both users and customers.

During the second quarter 39% of total searches were performed in the mobile channel, an increase of 3 percentage points compared with the preceding quarter.

Complementary digital marketing products

Revenue from Complementary digital marketing products decreased by 43% to SEK 34 M (60).

The decline is attributable to our decision last year to sharply reduce sales of Google AdWords as a result of weak profitability. Sales have been subsequently resumed after organizing them in an entirely new way and with highly improved profitability. Thus far volumes are still low, as the newly resumed efforts are still in the start-up phase.

During the autumn we will be reintroducing the product in our final core market, Denmark, and we continued to train more salespeople in Google AdWords. The product is important for our ability to be a comprehensive supplier of digital marketing solutions.

Gulesider Innsikt was launched successfully during the quarter and is sold by a specialized team in Norway which handles the entire digital marketing strategies for companies, from planning to execution.

Print/Voice

Print revenue decreased by 46% to SEK 25 M (46).

Voice revenue decreased by 20% to SEK 98 M (123).

Print and Voice revenue continues to contract as a result of the shift to digital search channels, however, through good cost control it is generating earnings even better than expected.

Kaj Lindholm has been appointed as the new head of Voice, effective September 1. Kaj has been with Eniro for approximately 20 years and is currently President of Eniro Finland – a role that he will continue to hold aside from his new area of responsibility.

Operating income

Consolidated operating income for the second quarter amounted to SEK -810 M (-1,166).

EBITDA for the Group was SEK 116 M (49) for the second quarter, and the EBITDA margin was 23.4% (7.7%).

Restructuring costs amounted to SEK -2 M (-35) during the second quarter. Income for the comparison period was affected by an additional SEK -12 M in costs for severance pay. Total nonrecurring items during the second quarter amounted to SEK -2 M (-47).

After adjusting for nonrecurring items, adjusted EBITDA for the Group amounted to SEK 118 M (96), an increase of 23%. The adjusted EBITDA margin was 23.8% (15.1%).

EBITDA for the Local search operating segment, which includes the Digital search and Print categories, amounted to SEK 98 M (44), and the EBITDA margin was 24.6% (8.6%). EBITDA for the Voice operating segment amounted to SEK 31 M (48), and the EBITDA margin was 31.6% (39.0%).

Cost efficiency

We are continuing our work on efficiency improvement. Total operating costs were SEK 201 M lower during the second quarter compared with the corresponding quarter a year ago. Cost savings adjusted for restructuring and third-party costs amounted to SEK 150 M (67). The savings consisted mainly of lower personnel costs.

Amortization and impairment losses

Amortization amounted to SEK -53 M (-67) during the second quarter. Amortization of the Gule Sider and Ditt Distrikt trademarks totaled SEK -20 M (-23). The Voice trademark 1888, which was fully amortized at the end of 2015, was amortized during the second quarter a year ago by SEK -9 M. During 2016 the Krak trademark has been reclassified from having indefinite useful life to a finite useful life of 10 years. Amortization of the trademark during the second quarter totaled SEK -3 M (0).

In connection with the preparation of the quarterly report a new impairment test was performed of the value of the company's intangible non-current assets. A downward adjustment of anticipated revenue and earnings performance, together with an elevated risk assessment, resulted in a need to recognize impairment losses of SEK -873 M (-1,111) for goodwill, of which approximately half is attributable to a higher risk premium. Of this impairment, SEK -851 M (-646) pertained to Local search and SEK -22 M (-465) pertained to Voice. Of the impairment losses in Local search, SEK -622 M (-646) pertained to Norway and SEK -229 M (0) pertained to Denmark. Of the impairment losses in Voice, SEK -9 M (-360) was attributable to Sweden, SEK -11 M (0) was attributable to Norway, and SEK -2 M (-105) was attributable to Finland. Earnings for the corresponding period a year ago were charged with impairment losses of SEK -37 M for ongoing development projects.

The new assumptions used in the asset valuation underline the importance of the comprehensive review initiated by the Board and Group Management of e.g., the business model, corporate structure and capital structure.

Furthermore, the above-mentioned assumptions entail that further measures are required in order for Eniro to live up to its loan covenants in the first quarter of 2017.

Acquisitions/divestments

No acquisitions or divestments were carried out during the second quarter.

Net financial items

Net financial items amounted to SEK -33 M (-23). Exchange rate differences had a positive effect on net financial items by SEK 3 M (18).

Income before tax

Income before tax amounted to SEK -843 M (-1,189) for the period. Reported tax for the second quarter totaled SEK -9 M (4). The effective tax rate was 30% (0.3%).

Eniro's taxes are paid primarily during the first half of the year. Accordingly, paid taxes are low during the second half of the year. As a result of tax-loss carry forwards in Sweden, Denmark and Finland, Eniro has had low tax payments for several years. Tax payments are expected to remain relatively low in the years immediately ahead.

Net income for the period and earnings per common share

Net income for the second quarter was SEK -852 M (-1,185). Earnings per common share before dilution were SEK -1.80 (-4.55). Earnings per common share after dilution were SEK -1.28 (-2.39).

Risks and uncertainties

Eniro conducts risk analysis in an annual Enterprise Risk Management process, covering all parts of the business operations.

A detailed description of factors that could affect Eniro's business operations, financial position and earnings is provided on pages 34-37 of the 2015 Annual Report. The principal risks and uncertainties that were considered to have a potential impact on the Group's

performance in 2016 were related to recruitment and high personnel turnover, continued falling digital revenue, limitations posed by the terms of existing loan agreements, greater competition from global actors in local search, and a decrease in local search traffic.

In accordance with Mr. Kercza's employment contract he is entitled to 12 months' termination notice when terminated by the Company.

Interim report Jan.-Sept. 2016 Oct. 28, 2016

Auditor's review of interim financial information

Auditor's review report of interim financial information in summary (interim report) prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and Ch. 9 of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim report for Eniro AB (publ) corporate identity number 556588-0936, as at June 30, 2016, and for the six-month period then ended. The Board of Directors and President are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report 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

Scope of 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 interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily to persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review has a different focus and is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and other generally accepted auditing practices.

The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed on the basis of a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed on the basis of an audit.

Conclusion

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

Note 3 Earnings per share

Earnings per common share before dilution

Earnings per share before dilution are calculated as income for the period attributable to owners of the Parent Company less the set dividend on preference shares for the period, divided by the average number of common shares, excluding treasury shares, before dilution.

Earnings per common share after dilution

In calculating earnings per share after dilution, the average number of shares is adjusted for the effects of the potential dilution of common shares associated with the convertible bond. This entails that earnings per share after dilution are calculated by dividing income for the period attributable to owners of the Parent Company plus interest expense after tax pertaining to the convertible loan, less the set dividend on preference shares for the period, by the average number of common shares, excluding treasury shares, after full conversion.

Impairment testing of goodwill and trademarks with indefinite useful life

In connection with the preparation of the quarterly report a new impairment test was performed of the value of the company's intangible non-current assets. A downward adjustment of anticipated revenue and earnings performance, together with an elevated risk assessment, resulted in a need to recognize impairment losses of SEK -873 M (-1,111) for goodwill, of which approximately half is attributable to a higher risk premium.

In the impairment testing, a determination is made as to whether a need to recognize impairment exists by comparing the cash-generating unit's carrying amount, including goodwill and other consolidated surplus value, with the recoverable amount. If the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount, the carrying amount is writ ten down to the recoverable amount.

Eniro's lowest cash-generating units consist of the operating segments per country, i.e., Local search and Voice, which corresponds to the monitoring that is conducted in both the internal and external reporting. The recoverable amount consists of the value in use. A discount rate before tax has been determined for the respective cash generating units.

The impairment testing indicated a need to recognize SEK -873 M (-1,111) in impairment losses, approximately half is attributable to a higher risk premium.. Of this impairment, SEK -851 M (-646) pertained to Local search and SEK -22 M (-465) pertained to Voice. Of the impairment losses in Local search, SEK -622 M (-646) pertained to Norway and SEK -229 M (0) pertained to Denmark. Of the impairment losses in Voice, SEK -9 M (-360) was attributable to Sweden, SEK -11 M (0) was attributable to Norway, and SEK -2 M (-105) was attributable to Finland.
