2 FASTIGHETS AB BALDER · INTERIM REPORT JANUARY-SEPTEMBER 2015

Comments by the CEO

Dear shareholder,

Profit from property management

It was a relatively uneventful quarter but we reported a good result. Profit from property management increased at a good rate due to an excellent performance by Balder's entire organisation and in our jointly-owned companies. Just like in the previous years' reports, we also got extra assistance from the increasingly low interest rates and from non-recurring income during the quarter.

Investments

Property acquisitions during the quarter consisted exclusively of project real estate. In Copenhagen, where we are already building apartments, Balder acquired an additional number of very fine properties and thus we now have about 1,000 apartments under construction. Apart from residential projects, we also acquired a hotel project. As you know, we like hotels and think that our future Copenhagen hotel has great potential. It consists of a beautiful building in an excellent location and has a very professional operator in the form of Nobis. This is our first but hopefully not our last hotel investment in Copenhagen. Besides the Copenhagen projects, we also acquired the property Bastuban 1 in the Gothenburg region, which we intend to develop both for residential and commercial purposes in collaboration with Mölndal Municipality.

Finland

I have been in Finland several times since the previous quarterly report, and have also been elected to Sato's Board of Directors. My first very positive impression of the company and particularly the people behind it, has been reinforced. I feel that our investment is in safe hands and I look forward to deepening the contacts for many years to come.

Looking ahead

The property market will probably finish the year strongly in view of the relatively good economic situation and continued record-low interest rates. Since Balder invests in several countries and property categories as well as in projects and jointly-owned companies, I believe that we still have good opportunities to find reasonably good investments, despite the strong market.

It is important to also note that Balder is continuing to develop positively as a company on many levels. I am both grateful and happy about all the employees, and all of you prospective employees and business partners, who contact us regularly with proposals major ones and as well as small ones. It is impossible to describe how much I appreciate you all. Thanks for your confidence!

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 cur¬rent 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 and is estimated to largely consist of deferred tax, which does not affect the cash flow.

Results, income and costs

Results

Profit from property management increased by 45 per cent during the period and amounted to SEK 1,298m (897), which corresponds to an increase per ordinary share by 53 per cent to SEK 7.07 (4.62). Profit from property management includes SEK 329m (137) in respect of associated companies.

Net profit after tax amounted to SEK 2,410m (1,658), corresponding to SEK 13.92 per ordinary share (9.34). Profit before tax was affected by changes in value in respect of properties of SEK 1,371m (1,428), changes in value of interest rate derivatives of SEK 30m (–422) and profit from participations in associated companies of SEK 472m (225).

Rental income

Rental income increased by 10 percent to SEK 2,031m (1,848). The increase was primarily due to the change in the real estate portfolio. The leasing portfolio was estimated to have a rental value on 30 September of SEK 2,795m (2,795). The average rental level for the entire real estate portfolio amounted to SEK 1,333/sq.m. (1,296).

Rental income shows a considerable diversification of risks as regards tenants, sectors and locations. The economic occupancy rate amounted to 95 per cent (95) on 30 September. The total rental value of unlet areas at the end of the period amounted to SEK 139m (145) on an annual basis.

Property costs

Property costs amounted to SEK 596m (569) during the period. The increase in property costs was mainly due to the change in the property portfolio.

Net operating income increased by 12 per cent to SEK 1,435m (1,279), which implies a surplus ratio of 71 per cent (69).

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 internal valuation on 30 September, based on a ten-year cash flow model, of the entire real estate portfolio. Unrealised changes in value during the period amounted to SEK 1,307m (1,318). Realised changes in value amounted to SEK 64m (110).

The average yield requirement as of 30 September amounted to 5.3 per cent (5.8), which is unchanged compared to the second quarter and a reduction of 0.2 percentage points since 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 135m (117) during the period. The increase was mainly due to the change in the property portfolio.

Participations in the profit of associated companies

Balder owns property-managing and project developing associated companies and 44.1 percent in Collector AB (publ) which was listed in June. From the second quarter 2015 Balder also reports a consolidated statement of financial position including Collector AB (publ) at market value to clarify Collectors value in Balder. During the year Balder has acquired 30.3 per cent of the shares in Sato Oyj, Finland's second largest housing company. From the second quarter Sato is included in the profit from associated companies. During the year also 31 per cent of the shares in Tornet Bostadsproduktion AB were acquired.

Profit from participations in associated companies amounted to SEK 472m (225) during the period and Balder's participation in the associated companies profit from property management amounted to SEK 329m (137).

Profit before tax was impacted by unrealised changes in value in respect of properties and interest rate derivatives of SEK 108m (116).

Net financial items and changes in value of derivatives

Net financial items amounted to SEK —332m (–403) and changes in value of interest rate derivatives amounted to SEK 30m (–422). Net financial items have been impacted by one positive non-reccuring item of approximately SEK 50m. The positive change in value of derivatives during the period was due to a increase in the level of interest rates since year-end. 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 per cent (2.8) during the period, including the effect of accrued interest from interest rate derivatives.

Taxes

Balder reported current tax expense for the period of SEK 3m (3) and a deferred tax expense of SEK 429m (330).

Current tax only arises in exceptional cases due to the possibilities of making tax write-offs, tax deductions for certain investments in properties and use of existing loss carry-forwards. Current tax arises for subsidiaries where no group contributions for tax purposes exist — mainly companies acquired and divested during the period.

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 1,975m (1,194). At yearend, the Group's overall tax deficit amounted to approximately SEK 1,700m (2,000).

Third quarter, 2015

Profit from property management for the third quarter of 2015 increased by 49 per cent and amounted to SEK 535m (360), which corresponds to an increase per ordinary share of 57 percent to SEK 2.99 per share (1.91). Profit from property management included SEK 148m (51) in respect of associated companies. Net financial items were impacted by one positive non-recurring item of approximately SEK 50m. Rental income amounted to SEK 661m (655) and property costs amounted to SEK 157m (161), which meant that net operating income increased by 2 per cent to SEK 503m (494). The surplus ratio amounted to 76 per cent (75).

Net profit after tax for the period amounted to SEK 815m (289), corresponding to SEK 4.71 per ordinary share (1.47). Profit before tax has been impacted by changes in value in respect of properties of SEK 578m (129), changes in value of interest rate derivatives of SEK —112m (—119) and profit from participations in associated companies of SEK 147m (36).

Cash flow

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital amounted to SEK 874m (737). Investing activities have burdened the cash flow by SEK 3,759m (5,323).

During the period, acquisition of properties of SEK 2,095m (5,672), investments in existing properties and projects of SEK 600m (537), investments in property, plant and equipment, financial investments and associated companies of

SEK 3,162m (336) and dividends paid of SEK 150m (150) adds up to SEK 6,007m (6,695).

These have been financed through cash flow from operating activities of SEK 655m (613), by property divestments of SEK 1,604m (938), financial investments of SEK 493m (219) and net borrowings of SEK 3,620m (4,634) adds up to SEK 6,372m (6,404).

Total cash flow for the period amounted to SEK 366m (–6). The group's cash and cash equivalents, financial Investments and unutilised credit facilities amounted to SEK 1,278m (779) on 30 September.

The number of employees on 30 September amounted to 447 persons (283), of whom 193 (97) were women. Balder is organised into five regions with 16 areas in total. The head office with group-wide functions is located in Gothenburg.

Parent Company

The parent company's operations mainly consist of performing group-wide services but an important part relates to sales of services, principally to associated companies. Sales in the parent company amounted to SEK 102m (85) during the period.

Net profit after tax amounted to SEK 1,077m (561). Dividend of SEK 800m (700) from subsidiaries was included and unrealised changes in value of interest rate derivatives amounted to SEK 14m (–390).

Real estate holdings

Change in real estate portfolio

The value of Balder's real estate portfolio is based on internal valuations. All properties have been valued using the cash flow based method, which means that each property is valued by discounting the estimated future cash flows. An estimate is also made of the future development of the immediate surroundings and the position of the property within its market segment. On 30 September, Balder's average yield requirement amounted to 5.3 per cent (5.8) 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

Balder had approximately 1,000 apartments under construction in Copenhagen and 250 apartments in Sweden as of September 30. Besides the apartments currently one building in Copenhagen is converted to a hotel property, which will be leased by Nobis Hotel. The overall investment for all projects under production will amount to approximately SEK 3,500m, of which about SEK 1,300m remains to be invested as of 30 September 2015. In addition to these there exists a number of projects which are not yet in the production phase.

Unrealised changes in value

The overall carrying amount of Balder's properties amounted to SEK 39,895m (34,506) on 30 September. The unrealised change in value during the period amounted to SEK 1,307m (1,318) and was attributable to improved net operating income and a lower yield requirement.

Investments, acquisitions and divestments

During the year, a total of SEK 2,780m (6,433) was invested, of which SEK 2,180m (5,895) related to acquisitions and SEK 600m (537) related to investments in existing properties and projects. Properties with a sales value of SEK 1,610m (938) were divested during the period. Profit from property sales amounted to SEK 64m (110).

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 6.4 years (5.7). Balder's 10 largest leases represent 10.2 per cent (8.7) of total rental income and the average lease term amounts to 13.3 years (11.7).

No individual lease accounts for more than 1.6 per cent (1.5) of Balder's total rental income and no individual customer accounts for more than 4.9 per cent (5.5) of total rental income.

Financing

Shareholders' equity

Reported consolidated equity amounted to SEK 16,488m (12,782) on September 30 and the equity/assets ratio amounted to 35.3 per cent (34.2). The groups adjusted equity, including Collector AB (publ) at market value, amounted to SEK 18,694m (12,782) on September 30 and the adjusted equity/assets ratio amounted to 38.2 per cent (34.2). During the period, shareholders equity increased by comprehensive income for the period of SEK 2,427m (1,665) and the market valuation of the holding in Collector AB (publ) SEK 2,205m (–) and decreased by SEK 200m (300) regarding dividends approved and entered as a liability to the preference shareholders.

Interest-bearing liabilities

The group's interest-bearing liabilities in respect of properties amounted to SEK 20,317m (19,527) on 30 September, corresponding to a loan-to-value ratio of 50.9 per cent (56.6). The interest-bearing liabilities consist of bonds of SEK 2,650m (1,950), a certificate programme with a framework amount of SEK 2,000m (1,500) and bilateral bank loans with Nordic banks. Balder's certificate programme had an outstanding volume of SEK 2,000m (750) on 30 September. On 30 September, Balder's average interest rate refixing period amounted to 2.6 years (2.5).

The fixed credit term amounted to 3.4 years (4.4) and the average interest rate amounted to 2.1 per cent (2.7), including the effect of accrued interest from the interest rate derivative instruments, which are recognised as fixed interest borrowing in the table.

Interest rate derivative instruments are deployed in order to obtain preferred interest rate refixing targets. Derivatives are continually recognised at fair value in the balance sheet with changes in value recognised in the income statement without using hedge accounting. Changes in value amounted to SEK 30m (–422) during the period. The remaining deficit on derivatives, SEK 1,056m (884), will be released during the remainder of the term and recognised as income. This means that Balder has a reserve of SEK 1,056m which will be reversed in its entirety to equity, adjusted by deferred tax, concurrently with the expiry of interest rate derivatives. All derivatives are classified as Level 2 according to IFRS 13.

Liquidity

The group's cash and cash equivalents, financial Investments and unutilised credit facilities amounted to SEK 1,278m (779) at the end of the accounting period.

Financial targets

The proportion of equity is impacted by the chosen level of financial risk which in turn is impacted by lenders' equity requirements for offering market-based financing. Balder's financial goals are that the equity/assets ratio shall not be less than 35 per cent over time and that the interest coverage ratio should not be less than 1.5 times. As of 30 September, the adjusted equity/assets ratio was 38.2 per cent (34.2) and the interest coverage ratio was 4.9 times (3.2).

Events after the end of the period

Fastighets AB Balder has, as a partial payment for the sale of Tornet Landskrona, received 35 per cent of Brinova Fastigheter AB and will together with Backahill AB become the main shareholder in a new company with focus on community properties and residentials.

The new group will initially have a property portfolio of around 40 properties with a value of over SEK 1 billion. The property portfolio is geographically concentrated in southern Sweden. The goal is to create a larger company with a continued focus on community properties and residentials, which today represents over 75 per cent of the value.

Related party transactions

Balder receives fees from associated companies and Erik Selin Fastigheter AB for property and company management services. These fees amounted to SEK 21m (16) during the period and are reported in management and administrative costs. In addition, sevices are bought from Collector AB (publ).

Risks and uncertainties

Balder's operations, financial position and results may be affected by a number of risks and uncertaintyfactors. These are described in the Annual Report for 2014, on pages 46-49. Since year-end further acquisitions has been made in Finland, which means that a currency position has occurred. Otherwise, no significant changes has been noted.

Accounting policies

Balder a pplies IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) as adopted by the European Union in its consolidated accounts and the interpretations of these (IFRIC). This interim report is prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. In addition, relevant provisions of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Securities Markets Act have also been applied. The parent company has prepared its financial statements in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act, the Securities Markets Act and RFR 2, Accounting for Legal Entities.

The accounting policies and calculation methods applied are unchanged compared with the Annual Report for 2014

The interpretation IFRIC 21 Levies described in the Annual Report for 2014 has been adopted by the EU. IFRIC 21 Levies has therefore been applied by the Group in this interim report, which means that debt accounting of all of the remaining property tax for 2015 has been made.

Gothenburg 4 November 2015

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 2015 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 a

na lytical 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 causes us 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.
