Axactor SE - Interim / Quarterly Report 2015

Interim financial report for the six month period January 1 - June 30, 2015 and for the quarter April - June 2015 (Q2)

Highlights during the second quarter of 2015

· The administrative court (Förvaltningsdomstolen) in Luleå, Sweden, has in

the middle of May repealed the extension of one of the exploration permits

granted to NMG.

· A desk study on the iron oxide (magnetite by-product) concluded that the by

-product cannot be sold without NMG integrating forward in to production of

merchant pig iron ("MPI"). This information, in combination with depressed

nickel prices, resulted in NMG temporarily stopping the Rönnbäcken nickel

project investment program and booking an MSEK 82 impairment charge.

· The June 2015 AGM decided to enable NMG to conduct other business than

minerals, and the company is actively reviewing new business opportunities.

Major events after end of the report period

· In early July 2015 the Swedish public prosecutor filed criminal charges

against two of the four former NMG Board Directors in office during first half

of 2013 and responsible for the Ghana Gold-transaction. This is beneficial to

NMG in the sense that is increases the likelihood of NMG winning the ongoing

civil court case against the same Board Directors.
