Karolinska Development AB (publ)

Corporate Identity Number 556707-5048

Interim report January – September 2012

CEO's comment

In connection with Karolinska Development's IPO last year, I made it clear that the commercialization of the company's portfolio is our highest priority. With every passing day, our shareholders naturally grow more impatient for evidence of the value we have created in the company. I therefore wish to emphasize that we are committed to our goal to announce our first commercial agreement by year-end.

The foundation for a successful business is making progress in the portfolio. During the third quarter, Pergamum took its drug candidate LL-37 to clinical development. With LL-37 the company hopes to help patients with hard-to-heal wounds, a condition that places a great burden on both the patient and the healthcare system. Pergamum also reported top-line Phase II data with PXL-01, which unfortunately did not meet the primary end point and has negatively affected the reported valuation of Karolinska Development's total portfolio holding. The company is now awaiting a complete analysis of the data before making a decision on further development.

In addition, Aprea reported promising data from a Phase I/II study of the drug candidate APR-246. The study was primarily designed to evaluate the drug's safety profile, but also gave an indication that APR-246 can reduce the tumor burden in patients with advanced cancer. The next step for Aprea is now to initiate a proof-of-concept study in patients with ovarian cancer. This positive news is especially gratifying since we increased our ownership interest in the company to 69 percent during the third quarter after completing the share swap announced in June. We previously expected to announce data from the Phase I/II study with Akinion's AKN-028 before year end. However, patient recruitment has been somewhat slower than expected and we now believe this study to be completed during the first quarter of 2013.

In 2012, several portfolio companies have taken important steps forward. Three projects have entered clinical development and two Phase II studies have been launched; Pharmanest's SHACT for pain relief in connection with intrauterine device (IUD) insertion and Pergamum's DPK-060 to treat outer ear infections. In total, eleven projects in our active portfolio are now in clinical development for diseases with unmet medical needs.

Significant events during the third quarter

Pergamum reported top-line Phase II data from the clinical trial on the prevention of post-surgical adhesions

In July, Pergamum announced top-line results from a randomized Phase II clinical trial of PXL-01 for prevention of post-surgical adhesions. The study showed that the drug was safe and well tolerated. The primary end point was not met, but the data suggest that treatment with PXL-01 may improve hand mobility following surgery. The company is now awaiting a complete analysis based on the data before making a decision on the project's continued development.

First patient dosed with Pergamum's drug candidate for treatment of hard-to-heal wounds

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of a promising new treatment for chronic leg ulcers, Pergamum has initiated a Phase I/II double blind study where three different doses of the drug candidate LL-37 will be compared with a placebo. In September, Pergamum announced that the first of a total of 32 patients has been dosed.

Aprea announced positive data from a Phase I/II clinical study with APR-246 in patients with advanced cancers

In September, Aprea announced positive data from a completed Phase I/II clinical study with its investigational drug APR-246. The results from the study have been published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. In the trial, escalating doses of APR-246 were administered as monotherapy to 22 patients with advanced blood or prostate cancer during up to four consecutive days. Doselimiting toxicity was shown at plasma levels well above predicted therapeutic plasma levels. The study also demonstrated doseproportional and time-independent pharmacokinetics for APR-246 over the dose range studied. In addition to reporting that the drug was well tolerated, the authors concluded from the study that APR-246 induces biological effects and that there are cases of clinical effects on the tumor burden. One patient with advanced blood cancer demonstrated a 50 percent reduction in the number of blast cells in their bone marrow. Based on the positive data, Aprea is planning to initiate a Phase II proof-of-concept study in ovarian cancer.

Significant events after the end of the reporting period

No significant events after the end of the reporting period.

The portfolio (as per November 22, 2012)

Many of Karolinska Development's portfolio companies took important steps forward during the year. Two of the projects, LL-37 and AKN-028, advanced into Phase I/II studies, Pharmanest completed a full Phase I study and initiated a Phase II study with SHACT, and Pergamum initiated a Phase II trial with DPK-060. Furthermore, Aprea reported the results from a Phase I/II trial with APR-246 and Pergamum reported data from a Phase II trial with PXL-01. Two new companies were added during the year through investments in the companies GliGene AB and Oss-Q AB. In addition, the holdings in Oncopeptides AB and ProNoxis AB were divested. KDev Oncology AB was established during the year and currently comprises GliGene AB and Akinion Pharmaceuticals AB.

Financial overview – Group

Revenue

Consolidated revenue during the nine-month period amounted to SEK 7.4m, compared with SEK 7.1m in the same period in 2011. During the third quarter, consolidated revenue amounted to SEK 1.8m, compared with SEK 1.9m in the same period in 2011.

Results

During the nine-month period, the Group's operating loss amounted to SEK -303.7m (-277.4), a change of SEK -26.3m compared with the same period in 2011. The loss was mainly due to the portion of the change in fair value affecting income, which amounted to SEK -188.9m (-167.8) during the period, as well as increased development costs in subsidiaries. Pergamum announced Phase II data from PXL-01 that unfortunately did not meet the primary end point and has negatively affected the valuation of the reported total portfolio holding. As indicated in Note 2, the value of companies reported as subsidiaries appreciated by SEK 43.3m (59.5). These changes are not recognized in the consolidated income statement and statement of financial position, since the subsidiaries are consolidated and therefore are not measured at fair value.

During the nine-month period, a share swap with Industrifonden was completed 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 of the transaction, 27 August 2012. The transaction has had no effect on the consolidated operating results (Note 4).

The Group's loss before tax during the nine-month period amounted to SEK -326.7m (-286.5) of which parent company costs SEK -41.0m (-46.1), fair value change SEK -188.9m (-167.8), subsidiary costs SEK -73.8m (-63.5) and financial net SEK -23.0 (-9.1).

The Group's operating loss for the third quarter amounted to SEK -101.2m (-143.0), a change of SEK 41.8m compared with the same period in 2011. The change was mainly due to the portion of the change in fair value affecting income, which amounted to SEK - 65.5m (-104.9) during the third quarter. As indicated in Note 2, the value of companies reported as subsidiaries appreciated by SEK 18.0m (2.3) during the third quarter.

The Group's loss before tax amounted to SEK -129.9m (-147.3) during the third quarter.

Investments in portfolio companies (Note 7)

The Group's investments during the nine-month period amounted to SEK 207.0m (237.9) of which SEK 134.2m were cash flow affecting investments.

The largest investments during the nine-month period were in Aprea AB at SEK 72.6m through the share swap with Industrifonden (Note 4), Axelar AB at SEK 25.0m, Athera Biotechnologies AB at SEK 19.0m, the KDev Oncology AB Group at SEK 18.0m (of which SEK 15.0m in Akinion Pharmaceuticals AB and SEK 3.0m in GliGene AB) and Dilaforette Holding AB at SEK 10.0m (of which SEK 10.0 in Dilaforette AB).

The Group's investments during the third quarter amounted to SEK 91.3m (11.6).

The largest investments during the third quarter were in Aprea AB at SEK 72.6m through the share swap with Industrifonden (Note 4), BioChromix Pharma AB at SEK 8.5m, Clanotech AB at SEK 4.5m and Pharmanest AB at SEK 4.4m.

Financial position*

The Group's intangible assets have increased by SEK 306.4m. Following the share acquisition in Aprea AB, it was reclassified as a subsidiary during the third quarter. As a result, intangible assets have increased by SEK 307.1m (Note 4). Other changes are related to the capitalization and amortization of patents in other subsidiaries.

The Group's equity to total assets ratio was 90 percent (93) on 30 September 2012 and equity amounted to SEK 1,940.7m (2,173.9).

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments amounted to SEK 415.9m (620.6).

Total assets amounted to SEK 2,161.4m (2,345.9).

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, see the annual report 2011.

The CEO hereby certifies that this interim 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.

Auditors' review report

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed financial information (interim report) for Karolinska Development AB (publ) as per 30 September 2012 and the nine-month period ended on this date. The Board of Directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this financial information based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with the Swedish Standard on Review Engagements SÖG 2410, Review of Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISA) and other generally accepted auditing standards. 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 based on a review does not give 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 for the Group is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, and for the Parent Company in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.

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 loss from changes in the fair value of the portfolio companies amounted to SEK -145.6m (-108.3) during the ninemonth period, which includes a positive change in the fair value of subsidiaries of SEK 43.3m (59.5). 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 net loss from changes in the fair value of joint ventures, associated companies and other long-term securities holdings amounted to SEK -188.9m (-167.8).

Note 10 Performance Share Program 2012 (PSP 2012)

On 23 May 2012, the Annual General Meeting resolved on a Performance Share Program for management based on the participants acquiring shares ("Saving Shares") on the open market. Under certain conditions, the participants will be allotted, free of charge, a maximum of five Performance Share Rights and one Matching Share Right by the company for each Saving Share they acquire. The Matching and Performance Share Rights will be allotted after three years. The total number of Performance and Matching Share Rights is 480,000. The program comprises a maximum of ten participants.

There are no performance conditions for the Matching Share Rights, but each participant must remain an employee on the allotment date. The conditions for the Performance Share Rights are related to Karolinska Development's share price performance and a comparison between what are called the Start Price and the 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 ten trading days beginning on 2 May 2015. For any allotment to be made at all, 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.

The company intends to cover the social security contributions related to the program by acquiring and transferring not more than 150,800 of its own shares. As of 30 September 2012, no Saving Shares had been acquired. The Performance Share Program has not had any impact on the company's results and financial position as of 30 September 2012.
