Comments from the CEO

JOACHIM HALLENGREN, PRESIDENT AND CEO

"Solid growth and profit performance in combination with our diversified business and geographical footprint, provide a stable platform for continued profitable growth."

STRONG PROFIT DEVELOPMENT

We continue to develop our operations and we are presenting another strong quarter. Net sales increased by 25 per cent to SEK 3.4 Bn (2.7), and operating margin improved to 12.0 (6.1) per cent. During the quarter, land sales generated profit of SEK 99 M, against a loss of SEK -28 M last year. I am pleased to see the results of our efforts with the investor business, which generated increased net sales as well as higher profitmargins. Our investor and consumer business, and our geographical footprint, are key elements of Bonava's strategy that balances our business.

CONTINUED STRONG DEMAND

Sales to consumers decreased slightly in the quarter. In Sweden, sales slowed partly as a result of delayed project starts and a somewhat calmer but still strong market. The market remained strong in Germany, and sales are continuing to increase. Sales in Denmark and Norway are stable. Sales decreased slightly in Finland, due to limited

project starts, although demand remains strong on this market. The St. Petersburg market remained awaiting.

Although sales to investors decreased there is still a strong demand. We can see a huge interest for our products.

WE GROW IN GERMANY

In the quarter, we hosted a well-attended capital markets day in Berlin, where we presented the German operations and our strategy for continued expansion there averaging 5–10 per cent annually until 2020. Demand for affordable housing in Germany is strong, and Bonava has been named Germany's most active housing developer for the fifth year running in a survey by market analysis company bulwiengesa. We acquired more than 1,200 new building rights in Germany in the quarter, including an acquisition of a block in Berlin, where we will develop a neighbourhood with over 450 housing units.

CONTINUED PROFITABLE GROWTH

We are continuing to experience strong

demand for housing on our markets. We have a record number of housing units in production with good sales rate. Accordingly, we have increased the number of housing starts. The increased investments in housing projects affected cash flow before financing, which thus became lower compared to last year. We have started significantly more housing projects on our largest markets in Sweden and Germany, which creates favourable conditions for future sales. Bonava is growing, and I expect us to recognise significantly more housing units for profit in the future compared to the expectations in the corresponding period last year. With solid growth and profit performance in combination with our diversified business and geographical footprint, we stand stable for continued profitable growth.

Joachim Hallengren, President and CEO

Building on a stable foundation

Bonava's origins are within the construction group NCC, and it has a long history of developing housing and vibrant neighbourhoods. We have been active in residential and community development ever since the 1930s, and over the years, we have successively sharpened our role as a residential developer. Our experience and know-how have been gathered from our own projects and acquisitions. In 2009, these operations became an independent business area – NCC Housing. We took another step last year, when we were listed on Nasdaq Stockholm. Our focus is on developing affordable

and sustainable housing for consumers and investors on selected markets where we can utilise our competence effectively and optimise our resources through the whole value chain – from project managing land to finished homes.

A leading residential developer in northern Europe

Bonava develops and sells homes across 23 regions in eight countries. Its selected geographical markets are Sweden, Germany, Finland, Denmark, Norway, St. Petersburg, Estonia and Latvia. The main characteristics are that we focus on major city regions with clear growth and stable local labour markets,

which creates demand for new housing over time.

We develop land into affordable and sustainable neighbourhoods, where housing is adapted to customers' wants and needs, as well as the unique circumstances of each place. Bonava provides multi-family housing

and single-family housing, and develops homes for consumers and investors, such as pension funds, jointly with municipalities and other stakeholders. That is how Bonava helps to create new and vibrant neighbourhoods.

Group performance

All comparative figures in this report refer to the corresponding period of the previous year. Rounding errors may occur.

MARKET PERFORMANCE

Housing prices in Sweden increased during the start of the year but has fallen slighty during the second quarter. The demand for housing still remains strong in Sweden. Housing prices in Germany increased and demand is expected to be good in the future. The housing market is strong in Denmark and the price level continued to increase, especially in Copenhagen. In Bergen, where we have our Norwegian operations, sales prices have increased during the first six month of the year. The demand in Finland is good with rising prices in the metropolitan areas. The housing market in St. Petersburg has stabilised but has during the beginning of the year been somewhat awaiting. The demand from investors is continued strong in Sweden, Germany, Finland and Denmark.

APRIL–JUNE 2017

In Sweden, net sales increased as a result of a higher number of housing units handed over to consumers and investors. In Germany, net sales from consumers increased and two projects for investors

were recognised for profit. Last year, no projects for investors were recognised for profit in Germany. Net sales increased in Finland due to a higher number of housing units handed over to investors. The number of housing units for consumers recognised for profit decreased compared to the same period previous year. In Denmark–Norway, net sales decreased as a result of lower land sales.

Financial position, investments and cash flow

TOTAL ASSETS

Total assets were SEK 18,859 M (17,881), with the increase primarily due to a higher volume of land held for future development and more housing units in ongoing housing projects.

NET DEBT

Net debt amounted to SEK 5,311 M (5,080), of which net debt in Swedish tenant-owner associations and Finnish housing companies amounted to SEK 4,285 M (3,709). Net debt was higher due to decreased cash flow. As of 31 March 2017, net debt was SEK 4,778.

CAPITAL EMPLOYED AND RETURN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED

Return on capital employed was 18.7 per cent (14.1). The improvement is due to higher operating profit. Capital employed was SEK 11,810 M (10,984) at the end of the period. Capital employed increased due to higher volumes of ongoing housing projects and properties held for future development. As of 31 March 2017, capital employed was SEK 11,657 M.

In Sweden, capital employed increased as interest-free receivables were up. Return on capital employed increased as a result of improved profit.

In Germany, volumes of properties held for future development and ongoing housing projects increased. Profit also increased, while return on capital employed decreased as a result of higher capital tied up.

In Finland, capital employed was at the same level as last year. Volumes of housing projects increased slightly, while interestfree financing also increased correspondingly. Operating profit increased and return on capital employed improved.

A high number of projects were completed in Denmark–Norway in the previous year, and capital tied-up decreased yearon-year. The return on capital employed increased due to lower capital tied-up.

In St. Petersburg, capital tied-up increased as a result of higher volumes of ongoing housing projects. Return on capital employed decreased as a result of increased capital tied-up and lower profit.

EQUITY/ASSETS AND DEBT/EQUITY RATIOS

As of 30 June 2017, the equity/assets ratio was 31.9 per cent (27.1). Bonava's equity/ assets ratio is affected by seasonal fluctuations as the company's assets increase in the first three quarters of the year and then decrease in the fourth quarter, when a large

number of housing units are handed over to customers and recognised for profit.

The debt/equity ratio was 0.9 (1.0). The debt/equity ratio excluding tenant-owner associations and housing companies was 0.2 (0.3).

CASH FLOW FOR THE QUARTER APRIL–JUNE

Cash flow before financing was SEK -327 M (-285) for the quarter.

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital improved due to a higher profit after financial items and increased exchange rate effects.

Cash flow from sales of housing projects increased as more housing units in Sweden, Germany and Finland were recognised for profit. Investments in housing projects increased in Sweden, Denmark–Norway and Germany.

Cash flow from changes in other working capital was down on the previous year as interest-free receivables increased and accrued expenses decreased. To some extent, this was offset by increased customer advances.

Cash flow from investing activities improved due to investments in new IT systems in the previous year.

Net debt

CASH FLOW FOR THE PERIOD JANUARY–JUNE

Cash flow before financing was SEK -1,406 M (-861) in the first half year.

Profit after financial items increased. Exchange rate fluctuations had a positive impact on cash flow while tax paid increased.

Investments in land increased and the number of housing units in production rose to meet growing demand, mainly in Germany and Sweden. The number of housing units

recognised for profit increased, which meant that cash flow from sales of housing projects increased. Cash flow from other working capital was down on the previous year as a result of a decrease in interest-free financing.

Cash flow from investing activities improved due to investments in new IT systems in the previous year.

SEASONAL EFFECTS

Bonava recognises revenues and earnings from housing sales when sold and completed units are delivered to customers. Bonava's operations are affected by seasonal variations due to cold weather, which means that a majority of housing units is delivered to customers in the fourth quarter. Accordingly, earnings are usually stronger in the fourth quarter than in other quarters, as illustrated on page 10 in the graph 'Estimated completions per quarter'.

SIGNIFICANT RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Bonava's operations are exposed to several types of risk, both operational and financial. Operational risks impact the Group's daily operations. This type of risk may relate to investments in land, project development, seasonal exposure or assessment of the earnings capacity of projects.

Operational risks are managed as part of the internal corporate governance process established by Bonava. The business units assess and manage risk through operational systems as well as specific processes and procedures.

The Group's financial risks such as interestrate, currency, refinancing, liquidity and credit risks are managed centrally in order to minimise and control Bonava's risk exposure.

Customer credit risk is managed by the individual business unit. A centralised insurance function is responsible for Group-wide non-life and liability insurance, primarily property and contractor's insurance. This function also conducts preventative risk management alongside the business units, implying cost-efficient and coordinated insurable risks. The risk that Bonava may fail to comply with the company's Code of

Conduct is managed by the CSR Compliance function.

NOTE 5 Fair value of financial instruments

The following table presents disclosures about the measurement of fair value for financial instruments that are continuously measured at fair value in Bonava's Balance Sheet. The fair value measurement divides assets into three levels. No transfers between levels were made in the period.

Bonava has no financial instruments in levels 1 and 3.

Derivatives in level 2 comprise currency forward contracts used for hedging purposes. The measurement of fair value for currency forward contracts is based on published forward rates in an active market.

The fair value of non-current and current interest-bearing liabilities has been judged not to differ materially from carrying amount. For financial instruments recognised at amortised cost; accounts receivables, other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and other interest-free liabilities, fair value is considered equal to carrying amount. Bonava judges that there is no material difference between the book value and fair value of instruments recognised at amortised cost.

In the period until 9 June 2016, Bonava constituted the NCC Housing operating segment of NCC AB. After this date, all transactions with NCC have been priced on a commercial basis.

Joint ventures and joint operations are categorised as related parties. The Nordstjernan Group and companies in the Axel Johnson Group are also categorised as related parties. Transactions with these parties were not material and have not been specified below.
