Comments from the CEO

JOACHIM HALLENGREN, PRESIDENT AND CEO

"We increased the number of housing starts by 20 per cent and we have a strong sales rate of 70 (68) per cent in ongoing production which creates good prospects for the future."

INCREASED HOUSING STARTS AND STRONG SALES RATE

I'm pleased with the profit development in the quarter. We increased the number of housing starts and we have a strong sales rate in ongoing production. The number of sold units decreased slightly year-onyear, mainly due to the continued cautious Swedish market. However, sales were strong in Finland and St. Petersburg, resulting in 1,275 (1,336) housing units sold. It's difficult to draw any conclusions about the Swedish housing market, although we can see that house prices continued to stabilise somewhat in the quarter. We started some 20 per cent more housing units compared to last year, due to strong demand in Germany and Finland and that we started 435 housing units in St. Petersburg in the quarter. At the end of the quarter, we had over 10,000 housing units in production with a strong sales rate of 70 (68) per cent which creates good prospects for the future.

INCREASED NET SALES AND STRONG OPERATING PROFIT

More housing units were completed and recognised for profit compared to the corresponding period last year, resulting in higher net sales of SEK 3,391 (2,135) M and improved operating profit of SEK 406 (218) M. We strengthened the operating margin to 12.0 (10.2) per cent. Profit from sales of land decreased year-on-year, with a profit impact of SEK 30 (65) M. Operating margin adjusted for profit from sales of land was 11.4 (7.9) per cent. We're continuing to

grow according to plan and we are investing in new housing projects, mainly in Germany. This resulted in an expected lower cash flow before financing in the quarter compared to last year. Looking ahead, we have some 5 per cent more housing units to hand over and recognise for profit compared to the corresponding period in the previous year.

GOOD DEMAND FROM INVESTORS

Sales of rental apartments are a significant part of our offering and our ambition is for some 30 per cent of sales to be to investors over time. We have a good demand from investors on our markets, and we sold 313 (327) rental apartments in the quarter. Among others, we sold a residential project comprising 110 apartments in Finland that is expected to be recognised for profit in the fourth quarter of 2019. We also sold a project of 137 apartments outside Copenhagen that is expected to be recognised for profit in the second and fourth quarters of 2020.

CONTINUED GROWTH IN GERMANY

In line with our strategy, we're continuing to expand on or largest market, Germany, which provided 41 per cent of net sales on a rolling 12-month basis at the end of the quarter. In the quarter, we agreed on a land acquisition in Berlin for a consideration of SEK 387 M. The neighbourhood will comprise some 500 housing units and is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2022. Demand for affordable housing in Germany is good, and we increased the number of housing starts to

consumers in the quarter by close to 50 per cent year-on-year. We also have a high number of housing units in production in Germany, with a strong sales rate to consumers and investors of 77 (80) per cent.

BROAD GEOGRAPHICAL SPREAD CREATES STABILITY

Our broad geographical spread across eight countries and 23 markets ensures stability when demand decreases on individual markets. Accordingly, we're continuing to work strategically with our building rights portfolio in order to expand on markets that generate the best returns. Thats why we since 2013, increased the number of building rights in Germany by over 150 per cent while simultaneously decreasing the number of building rights in Sweden by some 30 per cent.

We have a diversified offering to consumers and investors, creating a balanced portfolio that is less sensitive to fluctuations and adapted to market needs. There is considerable demand for affordable housing on our markets, and our strong Balance Sheet ensures that we can capitalise on future growth opportunities. Overall, we're well positioned for the future and we continue our work according to plan to deliver more affordable housing and to make our customers feel confident with their housing purchases.

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 gradually sharpened our focus on residential development.

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 in 2016, 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 throughout the value chain – from project managing land to finished homes.

VISION

We create happy neighbourhoods where people have the highest quality of life

MISSION

We challenge ourselves everyday to change the housing game, creating better homes and lives for the many

A leading residential developer in northern Europe

Bonava develops and sells homes across 23 regions in eight countries. Bonava's selected geographical markets are Sweden, Germany, Finland, Denmark, Norway, St. Petersburg, Estonia and Latvia. Bonava focuses on major city regions in pronounced growth and with

stable local labour markets, which generates demand for new housing over time. We develop land into affordable and sustainable neighbourhoods, with housing projects that are adapted to our customers' wants and needs, as well as the unique conditions in each location. Bonava provides multifamily housing and single-family housing, and develops homes for consumers and investors, such as pension funds, alongside municipalities and other stakeholders. That is how Bonava creates new and vibrant neighbourhoods.

Group performance

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

MARKET PERFORMANCE

The housing market in Sweden remained cautious in the quarter, although house prices stabilised slightly nationwide. The housing market in Germany remained strong in the quarter with stable house prices and good demand from consumers and investors. The housing market in Finland was good in the quarter, with stable house prices and good demand from consumers and investors. The market in Denmark was stable with a slight increase in prices in the Copenhagen region. In Bergen, Norway, the housing market was good even if house prices continued to decline slightly in the quarter following several years of price growth. In St. Petersburg, the market was good in the quarter, with slightly higher prices and stable demand from consumers. Demand from investors remained strong in Sweden, Germany, Finland and Denmark-Norway.

JULY–SEPTEMBER 2018 Operational performance Net sales

Net sales amounted to SEK 3,391 (2,135) M. The increase was due to higher net sales from both consumers and investors. Net sales from consumers amounted to SEK 2,342 (1,751) M. In the quarter, 750 (769) housing units for consumers were recognised for profit.

In Germany and Finland, more housing units were recognised for profit while the number of housing units recognised for profit in Sweden, Denmark-Norway and St. Petersburg decreased. The average price per unit recognised for profit increased to SEK 3.1 (2.3) M, due to more housing units recognised for profit in Germany, where prices are higher, and fewer housing units

recognised for profit in St. Petersburg where prices are lower. 558 (127) housing units for investors were recognised for profit in Sweden, Germany and Finland in the quarter, and net sales from investors were SEK 943 (177) M. Net sales from land were SEK 86 (187) M, the decrease was related to Sweden and Finland. Exchange rate fluctuations had a positive impact of SEK 168 M on Group net sales in year-on-year terms.

Operating profit

Operating profit was SEK 406 (218) M in the period. The improvement was due to higher net sales from consumers and investors and increased project margins. Profit from sales of land totalled SEK 30 (65) M. Amortisation of intangible assets increased due to shorter amortisation periods compared to the previous year, while sales and administration expenses decreased on the previous year.

Exchange rate fluctuations had a positive impact of SEK 18 M on year-on-year operating profit.

Net financial items, tax and profit for the period

Net financial items were SEK -35 (-51) M. The increase was due to reduced borrowing denominated in roubles at a lower interest rate and lower guarantee costs reported in Net financial items.

Profit after financial items for the third quarter 2018 were SEK 370 (167) M. Tax on profit for the period was SEK -82 (-36), corresponding to a tax rate of 22 (22) per cent.

Profit for the period after tax amounted to SEK 289 (130) M.

JANUARY–SEPTEMBER 2018 Operational performance

Net sales

Net sales amounted to SEK 7,802 (8,424) M. The decrease was due to lower net sales from consumers and reduced net sales from land. Net sales from consumers

amounted to SEK 6,089 (6,424) M. In the first nine months of the year, 1,984 (2,437) housing units for consumers were recognised for profit. The average price per housing unit for consumers was SEK 3.1 (2.6) M. The increase was due to fewer housing units recognised for profit in St. Petersburg, where prices are lower. 770 (615) housing units for investors were recognised for profit in Sweden, Germany and Finland in the period, and net sales from investors amounted to SEK 1,244 (1,036) M. Net sales from land were SEK 428 (878) M, with the decrease derived from Sweden and Finland. Exchange rate fluctuations had a positive impact of SEK 279 M on Group net sales in year-on-year terms.

Operating profit

Operating profit was SEK 755 (1,126) M in the period, of which profit from sales of land totalled SEK 184 (447) M. The decrease was also attributable to guarantee costs previously reported in Net financial items, increased amortization of intangible assets and increased sales and administration expenses.

Exchange rate fluctuations had a positive impact of SEK 17 M on operating profit in year-on-year terms.

Net financial items, tax and profit for the period

Net financial items were SEK -111 (-165) M. The increase was due to reduced borrowing denominated in roubles at a lower interest rate and decreased guarantee costs reported in Net financial items.

Profit after financial items was SEK 643 (962) M in the period.

Tax on profit for the period was SEK -140 (-210)M, corresponding to a tax rate of 22 (22) per cent.

Financial position, investments and cash flow

TOTAL ASSETS

Total assets were SEK 23,758 (20,057) M. The increase was mainly due to more housing units in ongoing production and an increased volume of properties held for future development.

NET DEBT

Net debt amounted to SEK 6,195 (5,041) M, of which net debt in Swedish tenant-owner associations and Finnish housing companies amounted to SEK 4,347 (4,739) M.

Excluding tenant-owner associations and housing companies, the Group had net debt of SEK 1,848 (302) M.

Net debt was up on the previous year, mainly due to increased net investments in housing projects. As of 30 June 2018, net debt amounted to SEK 5,607 M.

CAPITAL EMPLOYED AND RETURN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED

Return on capital employed amounted to 12.4 (18.5) per cent. The lower return was due to increased capital employed totalling SEK 13,696 (11,561) M and lower profit at the end of the period. Capital employed was up as a result of increased volumes of ongoing housing production in all business units, and more properties held for future development in all business units with the exception of St. Petersburg. This was partly offset by increased customer advances in Sweden, Germany, Finland and St. Petersburg. As of 30 June 2018, capital employed amounted to SEK 12,364 M.

EQUITY/ASSETS RATIO AND DEBT/ EQUITY RATIO

As of 30 September 2018, the equity/assets ratio was 28.1 (29.7) per cent. The equity/ assets ratio is affected by seasonal fluctuations as the company's assets and liabilities normally 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 (0.8). The debt/equity ratio excluding tenant-owner associations and housing companies was 0.3 (0.1).

Allocation of assets

CASH FLOW JULY–SEPTEMBER 2018 Cash flow before financing was SEK -588 (300) M for the quarter. Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital increased in the period, due to increased profit before tax and positive exchange rate effects.

Cash flow from sales of housing projects increased year-on-year, mainly in Germany. Investments in housing projects were also up in year-on-year terms, mainly in Germany.

Cash flow from changes in other working capital was down on the previous year, mainly as a result of decreased cash flow from interest-free receivables in Sweden, and lower cash flow from customer advances in all business areas with the exception of St. Petersburg.

JANUARY–SEPTEMBER 2018

Cash flow before financing was SEK -1,720 (-1,106) M for the first nine months of the year.

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital was down in the period as profit before tax decreased and negative exchange rate effects were more extensive in the current year.

Cash flow from sales of housing projects was down in year-on-year terms due to decreased sales in Sweden, which was partly offset by increased sales in Germany and Finland. Investments in housing projects increased in Germany and Finland, but were down in Sweden. Cash flow from changes in other working capital was up on the previous year. Lower interest-free receivables in Sweden, increased accounts payable in Sweden and Finland and increased customer advances in Germany, Finland and St. Petersburg contributed.

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 which means that a majority of housing units are delivered to customers in the fourth quarter. Accordingly, earnings and cash flow before financing are usually stronger in the fourth quarter than in other quarters, as illustrated on page 10 in the graph "Estimated completions per quarter".

Housing sales, housing starts and building rights

JULY– SEPTEMBER 2018

Housing sales and housing starts In the quarter, 962 (1,009) housing units were sold to consumers and 313 (327) housing units were sold to investors. Sales to consumers increased in St. Petersburg and Finland, while sales on other markets were down on the previous year. The average price per sold unit to consumers increased in all markets except in Denmark-Norway. The proportion of sold units increased in St. Petersburg, where average prices were lower than in other markets, which resulted in an unchanged average price to consumers of SEK 2.6 (2.6) M. The average price of sold units to investors amounted to SEK 1.9 (1.9) M. During the period, 1,204 (881) units were started for consumers and 247 (327) to investors.

As of 30 September 2018, the sales rate was 58 (57) per cent for housing units for consumers and 100 (100) per cent for investors. The completion rate at the end of the period was 53 (49) per cent for consumers and 44 (41) per cent for investors.

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 interest rate, currency, refinancing, liquidity and credit risks are managed centrally by the Group's Treasury Department in order to minimise and control Bonava's risk exposure in accordance with the Finance Policy.

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.

Sweden

MARKET PERFORMANCE

The housing market in Sweden remained cautious in the quarter, although house prices stabilised slightly nationwide.

JULY–SEPTEMBER 2018

Operational performance

Net sales

Net sales were up on the previous year, mainly as a result of a project for investors being recognised for profit in the period. No projects for investors were recognised for profit in the corresponding period of the previous year. The average price per housing unit to consumers recognised for profit was SEK 4.1 (3.3) M. The increased average price was mainly due to more single-family units recognised for profit in the period.

Operating profit

Operating profit was SEK 201 (169) M as a result of increased project margins from consumers and investors. Profit from sales of land totalled SEK 30 (63) M.

JANUARY–SEPTEMBER 2018

Operational performance

Net sales

Net sales were down on the previous year as a result of fewer housing units for consumers and investors recognised for profit and decreased sales of land. Profit from sales of land totalled SEK 390 (797) M. The average price per housing unit to consumers recognised for profit was SEK 3.8 (3.7) M.

Operating profit

Operating profit was SEK 568 (1,004) M, mainly due to fewer housing units for consumers recognised for profit and lower profit from sales of land. Profit from sales of land totalled SEK 174 (437) M.

Capital employed and return on capital employed

In Sweden, properties held for future development and ongoing housing projects increased year-on-year, while customer advances were up, which reduced capital employed. Return on capital employed decreased year-on-year as a result of the lower operating profit.

Notes

NOTE 1 Accounting principles

This Interim Report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and recommendation RFR 1 Supplementary Accounting Rules for Groups from the Swedish Financial Reporting Board.

The accounting policies applied in the preparation of this Interim Report apply to all periods and comply with the accounting policies presented in Note 1 Significant accounting policies in Bonava's Annual Report 2017, pages 102–106. These policies are also available at www.bonava.com.

IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, was implemented on 1 January 2018 and regulates the reporting of financial instruments. The new standard replaces IAS 39 and contains regulations on how to classify and value financial assets and liabilities, impairment of financial instruments and hedge accounting. Bonava has carried through an analysis that shows that IFRS 9 has not had a material effect. Therefore, Bonava has not restated the opening balances.

IFRS 15, Revenue Recognition from Contracts with Customers, was implemented on 1 January 2018 and regulates at what time

revenues should be reported. Bonava has carried through an analysis that shows that Bonava will have continued support to report revenues from housing projects to consumers and investors, as well as sales of land, at the time when the control over the housing unit or the land is transferred to the buyer, normally at the time of handover. Therefore, Bonava have not restated the comparative figures for 2017.

IFRS 16, Leasing, will be implemented on 1 January 2019 and regulates the reporting of leasing agreements. The present value of all leasing expenses should be calculated and reported as a Right of use asset in the Balance Sheet, with the corresponding interestbearing liability. In the Income Statement, the leasing expense is replaced by depreciation and interest expense. According to the present accounting standard only financial leasing has been reported in this manner. At the transition to IFRS 16 total assets, capital employed, net debt and operating profit will increase, which will impact other key figures. Bonava is continuing the analysis in order to quantify the effects of the new leasing standard.

NOTE 6 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 financial instruments 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 does not differ from the 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.

NOTE 7 Transactions with related parties

In the period until the listing on 9 June 2016, Bonava constituted the NCC Housing operating segment of the NCC AB Group. After this date, all transactions with the NCC AB Group, which is an associated company in the Nordstjernan Group, have been priced on a commercial basis.

Joint ventures and joint arrangements are categorised as related parties. Other companies within 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.

Audit Review

To the Board of Directors of Bonava AB (publ), corp. ID no. 556928-0380

INTRODUCTION

We have conducted a review of the financial Interim Report of Bonava AB (publ) as of 30 September 2018 and the nine-month period ending on this date. The Board of Directors and CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this Interim Report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Interim Report based on our review.

FOCUS AND SCOPE OF THE REVIEW

We have 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 consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying

analytical and other review procedures. A review has a different focus and is significantly limited in scope compared to the focus and scope of an audit conducted in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing and generally accepted auditing standards. The procedures performed in a review do not allow us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might have been identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a review does not provide the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed on the basis of an audit.

CONCLUSION

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Interim Report has not been prepared, in all material respects, for the Group in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and for the parent company in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.
