Karolinska Development AB (publ)

Corporate Identity Number 556707-5048

Year-end report January – December 2012

CEO's comment

In December, we announced a strategic deal worth SEK 220m. A syndicate of well-respected investors will acquire a minority share in Karolinska Development's holdings in 13 of its 25 portfolio companies. The deal demonstrates the value that Karolinska Development has created in recent years. The consideration gives the companies comprised by the transaction a total implied value of approximately SEK 1,500m, about twice Karolinska Development's investment in the same portfolio and a premium of 23 percent on the reported fair value on the transaction date. Our financial position has strengthened significantly.

In 2012, Karolinska Development's portfolio companies took several important steps forward. In total, eleven projects in our active portfolio are now in clinical development for disorders where current treatments fall short or are lacking. Pharmanest finalized a Phase I trial with SHACT for pain relief in connection with IUD insertion and launched a clinical Phase II trial during the year. Pergamum passed clinical milestones in all three clinical projects in 2012 and Aprea announced positive Phase I/II data with APR-246 against cancer. After the end of the year, Pergamum also entered into a strategic collaboration with Cadila Pharmaceuticals on an early-stage project where Cadila is financing the entire development through clinical Phase II and where the companies share the global marketing rights.

Our deal flow agreement with Karolinska Institutet Innovations AB, as well as agreements with other leading universities in the Nordic region, gives us the opportunity to evaluate a significant number of medical innovations in this region. In February, we announced that Karolinska Development has started a collaboration with Mayo Clinic in the US. This is the first step in expanding our inflow of new life science innovations from the best research institutions outside the Nordic region as well.

During the year, Karolinska Development worked intensely to push the portfolio companies' projects forward, identify attractive new investments and entered into an important commercial collaboration. As a whole, this improves our ability to build further value by taking development projects forward to the point where we can line up collaborations with pharmaceutical companies or exit portfolio companies.

Summary of significant events during the fourth quarter

Karolinska Development announced strategic deal worth SEK 220m

In December, Karolinska Development announced a strategic deal with Rosetta Capital Limited (Rosetta), an investor in life science. A syndicate managed by Rosetta will acquire a minority share in Karolinska Development's holdings in 13 of its 25 portfolio companies for SEK 220m. The consideration gives KDev Investments' portfolio a total implied value of approximately SEK 1,500m, about twice Karolinska Development's investment in the same portfolio and a premium of 23 percent on the reported fair value on the transaction date.

As part of the transaction, Karolinska Development transferred its holdings in 13 portfolio companies to a new investment company, KDev Investments AB, in February 2013. KDev Investments' portfolio includes ten companies in pharmaceutical development with some early-stage projects and others in clinical phases, as well as three technology companies. Rosetta acquires 7.33 percent of the common shares in KDev Investmentsfor SEK 110m and all of the preference shares (a further 6.83% of the total shares) in the same company for an additional SEK 110m. The conditions for the preference shares include a gradual reduction in the possible return for Rosetta. This places a cap on Rosetta's future return in exchange for certain protection if the return is low.

Pergamum reported positive Phase II data from clinical trial on outer ear infections

Pergamum AB reported that the primary end-point was met in the randomized Phase II trial of DPK-060 for treatment of acute external otitis. Data from the trial, which comprised 69 patients, demonstrated that a topical treatment with DPK-060 is safe and well-tolerated. In addition, a complete cure was reported after 10 days in a large percentage of patients treated with DPK-060.

External otitis, also called swimmer's ear, is one of the most common ear, nose and throat infections in outpatient settings. The clinical signs of the condition can range from mild inflammation and discomfort to life-threatening symptoms. DPK-060 is a novel anti-microbial peptide, which is unlikely to evoke antibiotic resistance.

Significant events after the end of the reporting period

Pergamum enters into strategic collaboration with Cadila Pharmaceuticals

Pergamum AB and Cadila Pharmaceuticals Ltd announced a strategic collaboration to develop a novel treatment for infections with a unique targeting mechanism clearly distinguished from conventional antibiotics.

The two companies will collaborate on the preclinical and clinical development of a novel therapeutic peptide developed by Pergamum AB. Development work will be conducted at Cadila Pharmaceuticals' facilities in Ahmedabad, India. Cadila will be responsible for all costs related to the development of the product up to clinical Phase II and global rights will be shared by the companies.

Karolinska Development starts collaboration with Mayo Clinic

Karolinska Development and Mayo Clinic entered into an agreement with the aim of identifying commercialization opportunities in Mayo Clinic's life science innovations. Mayo Clinic is one of the finest medical institutions in the world and a globally recognized source of innovation in life sciences and new treatment methods, similar to the Karolinska Institutet and other institutions with which Karolinska Development has cooperation agreements. The collaboration will strengthen the flow of new ideas and projects, while also allowing Karolinska Development to showcase its own innovations for a first-class investor in life science.

Dilaforette launched a Phase II study with sevuparin for treatment of severe malaria

In January 2013, Dilaforette announced it had received approval from the regulatory authorities in India to start a Phase II study with sevuparin in patients with severe malaria. Dilaforette and its partner, the Mahidol Oxford Tropical Medicine Research Unit (MORU), plan to include 50 patients in India, where severe malaria remains an important problem. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate safety along several efficacy parameters. The study design has been discussed at a pre-IND meeting with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The first study site is open for enrollment and the first patients are expected in connection with the coming rain season. A separate clinical trial in uncomplicated falciparum malaria is ongoing in Thailand since 2011.

The year in brief

In 2012, several of Karolinska Development's portfolio companies took important steps forward. Three projects advanced into the first clinical development phase and two Phase II trials were initiated. Data from clinical trials were announced for Pergamum's DPK-060 and PXL-01 and Aprea's APR-246. Two new companies were added during the year through investments in GliGene AB and Oss-Q AB, while the holdings in Oncopeptides AB and ProNoxis AB were divested.

Strategic deal with Rosetta Capital

On 21 December 2012, Karolinska Development announced a deal with Rosetta Capital lV LP, whereby Karolinska Development has transferred the holdings in 13 of its portfolio companies to a new private holding company, KDev Investments AB. Karolinska Development will own 92.67% of the common shares in KDev Investments, while 7.33% will be owned by Rosetta Capital IV LP, the company that a syndicate led by Rosetta Capital Limited is investing in. Rosetta is acquiring 7.33% of the common shares in KDev Investments AB for SEK 110m and 6.83% of the preference shares for an additional SEK 93m. In addition, the first SEK 17m of the total cumulative return from KDev Investments' portfolio will accrue to Karolinska Development. The transaction is expected to be completed during the first quarter 2013 whereby Karolinska Development will receive SEK 203m.

Portfolio companies in the transaction

The transaction comprises 13 companies representing a selection of development projects in various phases and a variety of areas. Seven of the companies develop pharmaceuticals and have projects in clinical trials: Akinion Pharmaceuticals AB, Aprea AB and Axelar AB, which are active in oncology; Dilafor AB and Umecrine Mood, which are developing treatments in the area of women's health; Dilaforette Holding AB Group, which is developing sevuparin for use against malaria and sickle cell anemia; and Pergamum AB, which is developing Karolinska Development's wound healing and dermatology portfolio. Three companies are involved in pharmaceutical projects in or prior to the preclinical phase: Biosergen AS (systemic fungal infections), Clanotech AB (ophthalmology) and NovaSAID AB (inflammatory disorders). Another three companies conduct development of technology products: Inhalation Sciences in Sweden AB, NeoDynamics AB and Promimic AB.

Management of KDev Investments AB

Karolinska Development will be the majority owner of KDev Investments AB and management of the joint venture will be governed by a shareholders' agreement between the parties. The parties will cooperatively manage the holdings in KDev Investments. The transaction gives Karolinska Development access to the expertise and experience in the life science area that Rosetta's management team has gained through many years of developing and commercializing companies and products. Board resources will be distributed as needed to the companies to provide expertise and experience in specific medical areas and development phases. The transaction does not change the operations of any of the companies involved. Karolinska Development and Rosetta have both committed to further investments in the portfolio in line with the plans Karolinska Development had for these portfolio companies before the deal was announced.

Consequences for the financial reporting

The consideration paid implies a value of KDev Investments' portfolio of approximately SEK 1,500m, corresponding to a premium of 23% to the reported fair value as of 30 September 2012. Including the consideration, Karolinska Development's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will amount to approximately SEK 440m. As a result of the transaction, KDev Investments and its portfolio companies will be classified as a joint venture and, when the deal closes, will be recognized at fair value. Of the 13 companies included in KDev Investments, several are subsidiaries at the end of the reporting period.

Terms for the preference shares

Rosetta's preference shares will have priority to future profit distributions and other returns as well as in liquidation, as outlined below. Subsequent allocations will be divided between the common shareholders, with 92.67% to Karolinska Development and 7.33% to Rosetta.

  • (i) 100% of the total future return up to SEK 220 million after Karolinska Development has received the second tranche of SEK 17m;
  • (ii) 30% of the total future return between SEK 220m and SEK 880m;
  • (iii) 18.33% of the total future return between SEK 880m and SEK 1,320m; and
  • (iv) 0% of the total future return over SEK 1,320m.

Financial overview – Group

Revenue

Consolidated revenue during the year amounted to SEK 9.9m, compared with SEK 10.5m in the previous year. During the fourth quarter, consolidated revenue amounted to SEK 2.6m, compared with SEK 3.4m in the previous year.

Results

During the year, the Group's operating loss amounted to SEK -253.8m (-400.7), a change of SEK 146.9m compared with the previous year. The loss was mainly due to the portion of the change in fair value affecting income, which amounted to SEK -86.8m (-243.8) during the year, as well as increased development costs in subsidiaries. The change in fair value was affected when Pergamum announced Phase II data from PXL-01 that unfortunately did not meet the primary end point, which has also affected the valuation of the reported total portfolio holding negatively. As indicated in Note 2, the value of companies reported as subsidiaries appreciated by SEK 208.2m (67.8). These changes are not recognized in the consolidated income statement and statement of financial position, since the subsidiaries are consolidated and not measured at fair value.

During the year, a share swap was completed with Industrifonden through which Karolinska Development exchanged its shares in Oncopeptides AB for Industrifonden's shares in Aprea AB. The share swap gave Karolinska Development a controlling interest in Aprea AB, which has therefore been consolidated as a subsidiary as of the closing date, 27 August 2012. The transaction has had no effect on the consolidated operating results other than Aprea´s operational costs post closing (Note 4).

The Group's loss before tax for the year amounted to SEK -276.0m (-405.7), of which Parent Company costs SEK -55.8m (-61.8), fair value change SEK -86.8m (-243.8), subsidiary costs SEK -111.2m (-95.1) and financial net SEK -22.2m (-5.0).

The Group's loss before tax for the fourth quarter amounted to SEK 49.9m (-123.3), a change of SEK 173.2m year-over-year. The change was mainly due to the portion of the change in fair value affecting income, which amounted to SEK 102.1m (-76.0) during the fourth quarter. As indicated in Note 2, the value of companies reported as subsidiaries appreciated by SEK 164.9m (6.3) during the fourth quarter.

The Group's profit before tax during the fourth quarter amounted to SEK 50.7m (-119.1).

The Group's net profit for the fourth quarter amounted to SEK 85.8m (-114.4) and was affected positively by SEK 35.1m by deferred tax revenue attributable to the upcoming reduction in the Swedish company tax rate.

Investments in portfolio companies (Note 7)

The Group's investments during the year amounted to SEK 231.6m (297.6), of which SEK 153.8m (202.7) affected cash flow.

The Group's equity to total assets ratio was 91 (93) percent on 31 December 2012 and equity amounted to SEK 2,026.2m (2,173.9).

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments in the Group amounted to SEK 291.2m (620.6), in addition to SEK 59.6m in cash and cash equivalents reclassified as available-for-sale assets.

Total assets amounted to SEK 2,215.0m (2,345.9).

Financial overview – Parent Company

Revenue

The Parent Company's revenue during the year amounted to SEK 4.0m (2.5).

During the fourth quarter, the Parent Company's revenue amounted to SEK 1.3m (0.7).

Results

During the year the Parent Company's operating loss amounted to SEK -132.6m (-181.6), a change of SEK 49.0m compared with the previous year.

Information on risks and uncertainties

Parent Company and Group

Valuation risks

Companies active in pharmaceutical development and medical technology at an early phase are, by their very nature, difficult to value, as lead times are very long and the development risks are high. Due to the uncertainty in these assessments, the estimated value of the portfolio may deviate substantially from the future generated value.

Project development risks

Risks and uncertainties are primarily associated with investments in portfolio companies and the development of projects in these companies. The operations of the portfolio companies consist of the development of early stage pharmaceutical projects. By their very nature, such operations are distinguished by very high risk and great uncertainty in terms of results.

Financial risks

Financial risks consist of investments in portfolio companies as well as risks in the management of liquid assets.

Future financing needs

Future investments in new and current portfolio companies will require capital. There is no guarantee that such capital can be obtained on favorable terms or that such capital can be obtained at all.

For a description of other risks and uncertainties, refer to the annual report 2011

The CEO hereby certifies that the year-end report gives a true and fair view of the operations, financial position and results of operations of the Parent Company and the Group and describes the material risks and uncertainties faced by the Parent Company and the companies included in the Group.

Notes to the financial reports

Note 1 Accounting principles

This report has been prepared in accordance with the International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Annual Accounts Act. The accounting principles applied to the Group and the Parent Company correspond, unless otherwise stated below, to the accounting principles and valuation methods applied in the preparation of the previous annual report.

New and revised accounting principles 2012

New or revised IFRS standards and interpretations by IFRIC have had no impact on the Group or, to the extent that these recommendations are applied to legal entities, on the Parent Company's income or financial position.

Definition of key ratios

Net asset value per share: Estimated fair value of the total portfolio, cash and cash equivalents, and financial assets less interestbearing liabilities in relation to the number of shares outstanding on the closing date.

Other definitions

First In Class: The first approved medicine with a defined mechanism for a specific target or a specific disease.

Portfolio companies: Companies owned fully or in part by Karolinska Development (subsidiaries, joint ventures, associated companies and other long-term securities holdings) which are active in pharmaceuticals, medtech, theranostics and formulation technology.

Fair value: The NASDAQ OMX regulations for issuers require companies listed on NASDAQ OMX to apply the International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS, in their consolidated financial statements. The application of the standards allows groups of an investment company nature to apply so-called fair value in the calculation of the carrying amount of certain assets. These calculations are made on the basis of established principles and are not included in the opening accounts of the Group's legal entity, nor do they affect cash flows.

Fair value is estimated according to the International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation Guidelines. According to these guidelines, fair value can be calculated using different methods, depending on which is considered to provide the best estimate of market value in each case. For Karolinska Development, this means that the fair value of many portfolio companies is determined using a model to calculate the value of discounted and risk-adjusted cash flows. In other cases, Karolinska Development's total investment is used as the best estimation of fair value. In one other case, the valuation at the time of the last capital contribution is used.

Interim period: The period from the beginning of the financial year through the closing date.

Reporting period: Current quarter.

Note 2 Operating segments

The Board of Directors is the function that determines the allocation of resources to investments in portfolio companies and to the Parent Company. The Board of Directors monitors each investment at the project level as well as the Parent Company's results and financial position.

Karolinska Development's investments are primarily steered to companies that yield the best returns. Regardless of a project's maturity, therapeutic area and whether the company is active within pharmaceuticals or medical technology, each company's projects are evaluated by Karolinska Development in the same manner, because of which Karolinska Development has aggregated all the portfolio companies into a single reportable segment.

Karolinska Development's measure of profit is the aggregate change in the fair value of its shares in the portfolio companies, including those consolidated as subsidiaries. The Board of Directors and management monitor the investments based on changes in their fair value independently of the company's level of influence. Consequently, the Board of Directors and management monitor subsidiaries, associated companies, joint ventures and other holdings based on changes in their fair value and not on their historical acquisition costs as subsidiaries recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The accounting principles applied in the internal reporting otherwise correspond to the Group's accounting principles as described in Note 1.

¹In the Group's internal follow-up the change in the value of discontinued projects is recognized as impairments

The aggregate result from changes in the fair value of the portfolio companies amounted to SEK 121.4m (-176.0) during the year, which includes a positive change in the fair value of subsidiaries of SEK 208.2m (67.8). The change in the fair value of subsidiaries is not recognized in the consolidated income statement or statement of financial position, since the subsidiaries are consolidated and therefore are not measured at fair value. The Group's reported result from changes in the fair value of joint ventures, associated companies and other long-term securities holdings amounted to SEK -86.8m (-243.8).

The aggregate result from changes in the fair value of the portfolio companies amounted to SEK 267.0m (-69.8) during the fourth quarter, which includes a positive change in the fair value of subsidiaries of SEK 164.9m (6.3). The Group's reported result from changes in the fair value of joint ventures, associated companies and other long-term securities holdings amounted to SEK 102.1m (- 76.0). During the fourth quarter, impairments of SEK 18.9m related to Pergamum and SEK 0.4m related to Avaris were reversed.

Note 11 Performance Share Program 2012 (PSP 2012)

On 23 May 2012, the Annual General Meeting decided on a Performance Share Program for management based on the participants acquiring shares ("Saving Shares") on the open market. For each Savings Share, participants will be allotted, free of charge, one Matching Share Right and a maximum of five Performance Share Rights. The maximum number of Performance and Matching Share Rights is 480,000. The program comprises a maximum of ten participants.

Each Performance and Matching Share Right is entitled to the allocation of one subscription option. Each subscription option entitles its holder to acquire one series B share at a subscription price corresponding to the share's par value and assuming that the option is exercised as soon as possible after receiving the subscription option. Subscription options will be allocated after publication of the company's interim report for the first quarter 2015, though no earlier than three years after the agreement on PSP 2012 was signed (vesting period).

There are no performance conditions for the Matching Share Rights, but each participant must remain an employee during the vesting period and may not have sold their Savings Shares. The Performance Share Rights have the same terms as the Matching Share Rights. In addition, there is a target related to Karolinska Development's share price performance and a comparison between the so-called Start Price and End Price. The Start Price is measured as the average over ten trading days. The Board of Directors determines the measurement period. However, the measurement must be made not later than 23 November 2012. The established measurement period was 27 August 2012 through 7 September 2012. The Start Price was set at SEK 15.70. The End Price is measured as the average over 10 trading days beginning on 2 May 2015. For any allotment to be made, the share price must rise by six percent annually. For a maximum allotment (five Performance Shares per Saving Share), the share price must rise by 30 percent. Within this span, allotments will be made proportionately. Allotments are capped at ten times the Start Price, after which the number of allotted Performance Share Rights is reduced. The participants will be compensated in cash for dividends paid during the period.

In December 2012, the participants acquired 80,000 Savings Shares. The fair value of a Matching Share Right on the allotment date in December 2012 has been set that SEK 14 based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The inputs in the model were a share price of SEK 14.65, an exercise price of SEK 0.5, an anticipated maturity 3.1 years, an anticipated volatility of 42.5%, an anticipated

dividend of zero percent and a risk-free rate of interest of 0.87%. The fair value of a Performance Share Right on the allotment date in December 2012 was set at SEK 7.20 based on a Monte Carlo simulation. The inputs in the model were a share price of SEK 14.65, an exercise price of SEK 0.5, an anticipated maturity 3.1 years, an anticipated dividend of zero percent and a risk-free rate of interest of 0.87%. The condition related to share price performance has been taken into account in the valuation of the Performance Share Rights.

Anticipated volatility is based on historical volatility and comparisons with comparable companies.

The company will cover the social security contributions related to the program by acquiring and transferring not more than 150,600 of its own shares. The Performance Share Program has not had any impact on the company's results and financial position as of 31 December 2012.
