We've seen increased activity in the third quarter with more production starts in Germany and in the consumer segment in Nordic, as well as positive sales growth in Sweden. During the quarter we sold 1,488 homes equating to a value of SEK 4.3 (3.1) Bn. Total sales value of sold units in production amounted to SEK 22.2 (19.7) Bn. Net sales was stable whilst operating profit decreased as a consequence of price adjusted housing in Sweden as well as increased costs in certain projects.
The housing market in Germany is strong. The high rate of employment, low interest rates and a housing shortage provide the right conditions for continued growth. It's still not possible to draw any conclusions on the basis of the weakening economic indicators, and the growth forecasts for next year indicate a degree of recovery. Housing construction continues unabated and demand for Bonava's housing units is high. The longer lead times for blueprints and planning approval remain, but as previously communicated, we've been able to step up our construction starts compared to the first half-year.
We can conclude that the Swedish housing market has stabilised. Production volumes are lower compared to previous years, and the proportion of price-adjusted housing units is high, although gradually going down. At the same time sales growth was positive in the quarter. Bonava sold 194 housing units to consumers, an increase of 140 per cent in year-on-year terms. In September, we started production of 52 new homes for consumers in Linköping. After the end of the quarter, it was also finalised that we are starting to build rental apartments in Lund as well as starting sales of single-family homes in Kareby, Gothenburg and in Älta outside Stockholm. Operating profit is down due to that we are now recognising homes that were started in a higher priced market; prices that we needed to adjust. Hence, during a period of time, this will entail a new level of profitability level than we have had previously.
The housing markets in the Nordic segment varied in the quarter. In Denmark and Finland, we're seeing a degree of stabilisation although volumes remain high as well as production costs. The housing market in Bergen was strong and prices increased. Bonava Nordic increased sales of housing units to consumers. Housing starts to consumers were also higher in the third quarter compared to the corresponding period in the previous year. In Finland higher costs in certain projects have had negative SEK 35 M impact on operating profit in the quarter. We've now implemented forceful measures to get back on track.
The housing market in both St. Petersburg and the Baltics was strong with positive demand and rising house prices. In the quarter, Bonava started 239 housing units for consumers. We're continuing to expand in St. Petersburg and the Baltics, with strengthened profit in the quarter.
In September, we announced that we're acquiring the Norwegian housing developer Urbanium AS. The company has developed properties since 2003 in Oslo and has an attractive market portfolio. At present, 50 housing units are in production and we expect to complete some 1,000 housing units in the period until 2026.

After the end of the quarter, Bonava reached a settlement in Germany relating to a protracted legal dispute from 2008 when Bonava still carried out construction operations. The cost of settling the dispute amounted to SEK 100 M and was charged to Group profit in the quarter.
It's positive that we've been able to switch up a gear in Germany and we anticipate continued momentum on that market. In Finland and Sweden, we're adapting and adjusting to new market conditions, which is bearing fruit in the form of increased sales. At the same time, this entails challenges: new market conditions demand strict cost control, which is high on the agenda. However, we look to the future with confidence, and the increased activity on all our markets indicate more stable progress looking ahead.

The market for new production of housing units has grown on the markets were Bonava is active in recent years, and favourable macroeconomic and demographic factors have resulted in increased demand for new production. In the last five years, investments in new productions increased by over 25 per cent in the EU and total investments amounted to EUR 316 Bn (312) 2) in 2018. More than
90 per cent of Bonava's net sales in 2018 were derived from Germany, Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Norway. Investments on these markets have increased in recent years, and in 2018 investments in new production on these markets totalled EUR 98 Bn (95). In the last five years, investments increased most in Germany, Sweden and Denmark.

As of 1 January 2019, Bonava has adjusted the segment reporting (comparative numbers have been restated), refer to note 1 and 2. Bonava also applies IFRS 16 Leases as of 1 January 2019, refer to note 1 and 5 for more information. From 1 July 2019, Bonava added the line item Items affecting comparability to the Income Statement. Refer note 1 and significant events after the end of the period.
Net sales were in-line with the corresponding quarter of the previous year and amounted to SEK 3,380 M (3,391).
In the quarter, 870 (750) housing units for consumers were recognised for profit, with net sales of SEK 2,770 M (2,342). The average price per housing unit was in-line with the corresponding quarter of the previous year and amounted to SEK 3.2 M (3.1).
During the quarter, the number of housing units for investors recognised for profit in Germany, Sweden and Nordic was 284 (558), net sales amounted to SEK 477 M (943). The average price per housing unit was SEK 1.7 M (1.7).
Exchange rate fluctuations had a positive impact of SEK 80 M on consolidated net sales in year-on-year terms.
Operating profit before items affecting comparability in the quarter was SEK 162 M (406). The decrease was mainly attributable to a lower operating profit in Sweden, Nordic and from investors in Germany. Operating profit after items affecting comparability amounted to SEK 62 M (409). The difference of SEK 100 M related to a settlement of a legal dispute in Germany. For more information, refer Significant events after the end of the period. Profit from land sales totalled SEK 31 (30) M.
Exchange rate fluctuations had a positive impact of SEK 5 M on operating profit in year-on-year terms.
Net financial items were SEK –26 M (–35). The improvement was primarily due to decreased borrowing in roubles.
Profit after financial items in the quarter was SEK 36 M (370).
Tax on profit for the quarter was SEK –9 M (–82), corresponding to a tax rate of 25 (22) per cent. The higher tax rate is explained by lower profit from sales of land in Sweden.
Profit for the period after tax amounted to SEK 27 M (289).
Net sales amounted to SEK 8,975 M (7,802). The increase was mainly due to higher net sales from consumers.
In the period, 2,613 (1,984) housing units for consumers were recognised for profit, with net sales of SEK 7,340 M (6,089). The average price per housing unit for consumers was SEK 2.8 M (3.1). The decrease is due to a higher proportion housing units recognised for profit in St. Petersburg–Baltics where the average price per housing unit is lower.
The number of housing units for investors recognised for profit in Germany, Sweden and Nordic was 678 (770) in the period, net sales amounted to SEK 1,316 M (1,244). The average price per housing unit was SEK 1.9 M (1.6); the increase was due to higher average prices in Sweden.
Exchange rate fluctuations had a positive impact of SEK 194 M on consolidated net sales in year-on-year terms.
Operating profit before items affecting comparability in the period was SEK 509 M (755). The decrease was due to lower profit from investors and from sales of land, which amounted to SEK 92 M (184). In the period, the operating profit from consumer business increased slightly. Operating profit after items affecting comparability was SEK 409 M (755).
Exchange rate fluctuations had a positive impact of SEK 11 M on operating profit in year-on-year terms.
Net financial items were SEK –79 M (–111). The improvement was primarily due to decreased borrowing in roubles.
Profit after financial items in the period was SEK 330 M (643). Tax on profit for the period was SEK –83 M (–140), corresponding to a tax rate of 25 (22) per cent. The higher tax rate is explained by lower profit from sales of land in Sweden.
Profit for the period after tax amounted to SEK 247 M (503).

1) Relates to operating profit before items affecting comparability. Regarding financial data per segment (p.13–16), operating profit before and after items affecting comparability remains the same, and only operating profit is stated.
Total assets were SEK 24,207 M (23,758). The increase was primarily due to a higher volume of ongoing housing projects and an increase in completed housing units.
Distribution of assets

Net debt amounted to SEK 7,331 M (6,195). Swedish tenant-owner associations and Finnish housing companies had net debt of SEK 4,089 M (5,230) in total, of which SEK 1,219 M (883) related to financing via parent company credit facilities directly attributable to Swedish tenant-owner associations.
Consolidated net debt for other operations was SEK 3,242 M (965). The increase is explained mainly by increased tied-up capital in housing projects and increased investments and delayed building permits in Germany. As of 30 June 2019, net debt amounted to SEK 7,272 M. Net debt excluding effects from IFRS 16 Leases amounted to SEK 7,014 M. Refer Note 1 and Note 5 for more information.
Net debt

CAPITAL EMPLOYED AND RETURN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED
Return on capital employed (excluding items affecting comparability) was 9.7 per cent (12.4). The decreased return was due to lower average operating profit excluding interest rate costs, and higher average capital employed totalling SEK 14,331 M (12,329) at the end of the period. Capital employed increased due to higher volumes of ongoing housing projects and an increase in completed housing units. As of 30 September 2019, capital employed amounted to SEK 14,798 M. Excluding the effects of IFRS 16 Leases, capital employed was SEK 14,484 M at the end of the period, and return on capital employed was 9.8 per cent.
As of 30 September 2019, the equity/assets ratio was 29.9 per cent (28.1). Bonava's 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 subsequently 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 1.0 (0.9).
Cash flow before financing was SEK –90 M (–588) in the quarter. Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital was down year-on-year. This was due to decreased profit after financial items, which was partly off-set by provision related to the settlement of the German dispute. In addition, in the quarter an advance tax payment was made in Germany.
Cash flow from housing projects, both sales and investments in housing projects, were largely in line with the corresponding period of the previous year.
Cash flow from changes in other working capital increased due to a reduction in pre paid invoices year-on-year.
Cash flow before financing was SEK –1,107 M (–1,720). Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital was down, due to lower profit after net financial items and higher taxes paid in Sweden and Germany. This lower cash flow was partly offset by increased provisions.
Sales of housing projects increased across all business areas, investments decreased in all business areas with the exception of Nordic.
Cash flow from other changes in working capital decreased due to reduced cash flow from customer advances in Germany due to delays in the building permit process.
Cash flow before financing

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 are usually stronger in the fourth quarter than in other quarters, as illustrated on page 10 in the figures showing estimated completions per quarter.
In the quarter, 1,082 (962) housing units were sold to consumers and 406 (313) to investors. Sales to consumers increased in all segments with the exception of St. Petersburg–Baltics. The average price of housing units sold to investors was SEK 3.3 M (2.6). The increase was due to a higher proportion of the Group sales made in Sweden, in combination with higher average sales prices in Germany in year-on-year terms. In the quarter, 914 (1,204) housing units were started for consumers and 406 (247) for investors. The total number of production starts decreased, mainly in St. Petersburg, in year-on-year terms.
Housing sales and housing starts In the period, 2,725 (2,520) housing units were sold to consumers and 532 (720) to investors. Sales to consumers mainly increased in Sweden and Nordic compared to the corresponding period in the previous year. The average price for housing units sold to consumers increased to SEK 3.0 M (2.5), due to more housing units sold in Sweden and an increase in average house prices in Germany in year-on-year terms. In the period, 2,010 (2,390) housing units were started for consumers and 532 (720) housing units for investors. The total number of production starts decreased mainly in Germany and Sweden compared to the corresponding period of the previous year.

At the end of the period, there were 6,994 (7,343) housing units for consumers and 3,307 (2,986) housing units for investors in production. As of 30 September 2019, the sales rate was 59 per cent (58) for housing units for consumers and 100 per cent (100) for housing units for investors. At the end of the period, the completion rates were 49 per cent (53) for consumers and 36 per cent (44) for investors.
There were 31,600 (32,600) building rights, of which 17,800 (17,000) were recognised in the Balance Sheet.

The figure illustrates the number of housing units in production per quarter and the share of housing units sold.
The figure illustrates estimated completions of housing units for consumers and housing units for investors not yet recognised for profit. The curve illustrates the sold proportion. In year-on-year terms, there are fewer housing units to complete from the fourth quarter 2019 onwards. Of the total number of housing units not yet completed, 23 per cent (29) is expected to be completed in 2019.

The value as of 30 September 2019 of sold housing units in production and sold completed housing units not yet recognised for profit was SEK 15.2 Bn (14.2) for consumers and SEK 7.0 Bn (5.5) for investors.

Investors
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.
For more information, refer Risks and risk management on pages 67–69 of Bonava's Annual Report 2018 at www.bonava.com.
The Group's average number of employees was 2,033 (1,923) in the period.
Bonava has two share classes, class A and class B. The closing price on 30 September 2019 was SEK 111.00 per class A share and SEK 111.50 per class B share, corresponding to market capitalisation of SEK 12.0 Bn.
Bonava's share capital was SEK 434 M on the reporting date, divided between 108,435,822 shares and 215,591,586 votes. As of 30 September 2019, Bonava had 11,906,196 class A shares and 96,529,626 class B shares. Each class A share carries ten votes and each class B share one vote.
Bonava had 29,727 (31,797) shareholders at the end of the quarter. Bonava's largest shareholder was Nordstjernan AB. As of 30 September 2019, the ten largest shareholders controlled 67.8 per cent of the capital and 72.2 per cent of the votes.
Effective 9 June 2016, NCC AB distributed all the shares in Bonava AB to shareholders. NCC AB remains a minority owner of Bonava Deutschland GmbH, but Bonava holds the option to acquire NCC AB's participations in 2021. According to a profit sharing agreement, NCC AB will waive dividend and receive an annual compensation of EUR 1.3 M until the agreement is cancelled, which may occur five years from entering the agreement at the earliest. The agreed profit share, representing a debt of SEK 27 M to NCC AB, has been reported at an amount corresponding to the fair value of two years' payments.
Bonava acquired the property developer Urbanium AS for NOK 608 M, on a cash and debt free basis. Urbanium's operations mainly comprise a land bank in Oslo and surrounding areas. The acquisition strengthens Bonava's position on the Norwegian market. Completion of the transaction is expected to take place during the fourth quarter 2019.
The acquisition of Urbanium AS was approved by the Norwegian competition authority on 16 October 2019. The acquisition is expected to be consolidated as per 1 November. Acquisition costs and costs for integration are expected to amount to approximately SEK 15 M and SEK 20 M respectively. The main part of the acquisition costs have been expensed during the third quarter and the main part of the integration costs are expected to be expensed during 2020.
Bonava reached a settlement in a legal dispute in Germany. The dispute originated in a construction contract terminated in 2006, a business Bonava terminated many years ago to focus solely on housing development. The total cost of SEK 100 M was reported as an item affecting comparability, under Parent Company and adjustments in the period, as the item does not relate to Bonava's current operations.
Kristina Olsen was appointed new Business Unit President for Bonava Denmark-Norway and assumed her role on 1 October. Kristina Olsen has served as Interim Business Unit President of Bonava Denmark-Norway since October 2018.

Despite a weaker economy, the housing market remained strong with rising house prices and good demand. While rent control in Berlin triggered extensive debate, it did not appear to affect activity in the region, probably because new production after 2014 was excluded from the measures. Intense competition fuels land and production costs and contributes to longer lead times for both blueprints and planning applications.
Operational performance
Net sales amounted to SEK 1,601 M (1,551). The increase was due to higher net sales from consumers. In the quarter, 361 (312) housing units for consumers were recognised for profit, with net sales of SEK 1,340 M (1,059). The average price per housing unit to consumers increased to SEK 3.7 (3.4) M due to higher sales prices. In the quarter, 101 (233) housing units for investors were recognised for profit, with net sales of SEK 197 M (491). The average price per housing unit was SEK 2.0 M (2.1).
Operating profit for the period was SEK 199 M (220). A higher volume of housing units for consumers recognised for profit made a positive contribution to the figure, while the volume of housing units for investors recognised for profit decreased and margins narrowed. Profit from land sales amounted to SEK 27 M (0).
Net sales amounted to SEK 3,488 M (2,971). The increase was primarily due to higher net sales from consumers. In the period,


771 (660) housing units for consumers were recognised for profit, with net sales of SEK 2,880 M (2,323). The average price per housing unit was SEK 3.7 M (3.5), due to higher sales prices. In the period, 222 (309) housing units for investors were recognised for profit, with net sales of SEK 478 M (630). The average price per housing unit was SEK 2.2 M (2.0).
Operating profit for the period was SEK 372 M (306). The increased profit was explained by a higher number of housing units for consumers recognised for profit, and profit from land sales of SEK 35 M (10).
to a higher number of ongoing housing projects held for future development, which was partly offset by a higher share of interestfree financing. Return on capital employed decreased year-on-year as a result of higher average capital tied up.

The Swedish housing market is showing signs of stabilising. Although housing starts are at a lower levels compared to previous year, and the number of price adjusted housing units is still high, although decreasing, the sales of housing units has increased. The house price index Boprisindikatorn from September suggest increased price optimism.
Net sales amounted to SEK 844 M (1,103). The decrease was due to lower net sales from consumers and land sales.
In the quarter, 153 (211) housing units for consumers were recognised for profit, with net sales of SEK 655 M (858). The average price per housing unit for consumers was SEK 4.3 M (4.1). The increase was due to a changed product and market mix, while a number of large housing units with a higher average price were also recognised for profit in the Stockholm region in the period.
In the quarter, 77 (101) housing units for investors were recognised for profit, with net sales of SEK 176 M (147). The average price per housing unit was SEK 2.3 M (1.5), due to market mix.
Operating profit for the quarter was SEK 27 M (201), due to a lower number of housing units for consumers recognised for profit, at lower margins and increased costs in some of the projects. Profit from land sales amounted to SEK 4 M (30).
Net sales amounted to SEK 2,589 M (2,818). The decrease was due to lower net sales from consumers and land sales.
Net sales and operating margin

In the period, 470 (590) housing units for consumers were recognised for profit, with net sales of SEK 2,076 M (2,263). Average price per housing unit was SEK 4.4 M (3.8). The increase was due to changes in product and market mix.
In the period, 192 (101) housing units for investors were recognised for profit, with net sales of SEK 437 M (147). The average price per housing unit was SEK 2.3 M (1.5), due to market mix.
Operating profit for the period was SEK 210 M (568). The decrease was due to a lower number of housing units for consumers recognised for profit, and lower margins on project deliveries. Profit from land sales amounted to SEK 58 M (174).
Capital employed decreased to SEK 4,440 M (5,166) due to a lower proportion of ongoing projects and investments in properties held for future development. Return on capital employed decreased year-on-year as a result of lower profit.

1) Relates to a previous project which was converted from a consumer project to an investor project.
The housing market in Finland was characterised by high supply of housing units. Sales growth, mainly in the Helsinki region, was positive, which indicates underlying demand. Production costs are on a high level while house prices are stable. The housing market in Copenhagen is stable. However, the increased housing supply coupled with stricter credit requirements have implied longer sales processes. The Norwegian market is in a positive trend, with good sales and slightly rising prices. In the quarter, the Norwegian Financial Supervisory Authority proposed tightening the maximum debt-toincome ratio from 5 to 4.5 x.
Net sales amounted to SEK 720 M (600). The increase was due to higher net sales from consumers.
In the quarter, 166 (119) housing units for consumers were recognised for profit, with net sales of SEK 565 M (294). The average price per housing unit for consumers was SEK 3.4 M (2.5); the increase was mainly due to higher average prices in Denmark and Finland.
In the quarter, 106 (224) housing units for investors were recognised for profit in Finland, with net sales of SEK 104 M (305). The average price per housing unit was SEK 1.0 M (1.4).
Operating profit for the quarter was SEK –38 M (20). The operating loss is explained by a lower number of housing units for investors recognised for profit, and project cost increases in Finland. Profit from land sales amounted to SEK 0 M (0).

The average price per housing unit was SEK 1.5 M (1.3). The increase was due to a higher average price per housing unit in Finland in combination with no housing units in Denmark delivered to investors in the previous period.

Bonava's business model and the agreement structure of housing projects mean that control is transferred to the buyer at the time of handover of the housing unit or project. This means that Bonava satisfies the undertaking to transfer the housing unit or project upon handover and recognises revenue and profit from sales of housing projects fully at this point. No revenue is recognised on the basis of forecast sales of housing projects. This applies to both housing units for consumers and investors.
Because Bonava appoints a majority of Board members in tenant-owner associations in Sweden and housing companies in Finland, issues guarantees and provides credit to or borrowing on behalf of tenant-owner associations and housing companies, Bonava exercises a controlling influence and therefore consolidates tenant-owner associations and housing companies in full.
Because tenant-owner associations and housing companies are consolidated in full, Bonava's net debt increases, as interest-bearing liabilities attributable to Swedish tenant-owner associations and Finnish housing companies constitute material amounts. See note 3 for more information.

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, with the exception of IFRS 16 Leases which is described below, apply to all periods and comply with the accounting policies presented in Note 1 Significant accounting policies in Bonava's Annual Report 2018, pages 98–102. The Annual Report is available at www.bonava.com.
From 1 July 2019, Bonava added the line item Items affecting comparability to the Income Statement. This heading describes events and transactions with significant profit impact on comparability, such as material disputes and other material non-recurring income or expenses. Tax on items affecting comparability and tax items that are automatically classified as items affecting comparability have been reported under Tax in the Consolidated Income Statement. Items that have been reported under Items affecting comparability for a period are consistently reported so that reversals of such items are also reported under Items affecting comparability in future periods. The item reported under Items affecting comparability as of 30 September 2019 relates to settlement of a legal dispute regarding operations that Bonava terminated several years ago. The total cost of SEK 100 M was charged to profit for the period and reported as an item affecting comparability under 'Parent Company and adjustments' as the item was not attributable to Bonava's current operations. For more information, see Significant events after the end of the period.
IFRS 16 Leases applies from 1 January 2019 and regulates the reporting of lease contracts. All contracts are reported as lease contracts in the consolidated accounts where Bonava essentially has the right to all the economic benefits from the leased asset and where Bonava has the right to control the leased asset.
Lease contracts are reported in the Balance Sheet. The right of use of a leased asset is reported either as non-current assets (property, plant and equipment) or current assets (ongoing housing projects) depending on how the leased asset had been classified if it had been owned. Bonava reports rental agreements for land (ongoing housing projects) as lease contracts when a detailed blueprint has been produced or building rights can no longer be appealed. Before such
time, Bonava does not have control of the land and therefore has no rights or obligations relating to the land.
The obligation to pay lease charges is reported as a non-current or current financial liability depending on the duration of the contract. Leasing expenses are reported as depreciation and interest expenses in the Income Statement.
With regard to completed unsold housing units, Bonava has certain commitments to Swedish tenant-owner associations, Finnish housing companies and other parties relating to payment of membership fees or rent. The intention is to divest these completed unsold housing units immediately, which means that these commitments are not reported as lease contracts.
Bonava uses the implied interest rate for land lease contracts; for remaining lease contracts Bonava uses the marginal borrowing rate determined by factors such as geographical market and maturity. In connection with the transition to IFRS 16 Leases, the non-weighted average marginal borrowing rate was 3.80%.
The term of the contracts is determined in contractual start and end dates. Bonava has essentially chosen not to consider the possibility of extending lease contracts as this is not financially beneficial because the assets are not business-critical or specialised, and other suitable alternatives are judged to be available. In addition, the costs associated with not extending contracts, such as costs of negotiation, relocalization and identifying other appropriate measures are deemed to be immaterial.
Bonava is not party to any financial lease contracts in the capacity of lessor.
See Note 5 and Annual Report for 2018 for more information about the effect of the transition to IFRS 16 Leases.
As previously, operating segments in Bonava are based on geographical areas, the nature of the products and services as well as similar revenue streams. The prior segments Germany and Sweden are unchanged while a decision has been made as from 1 January 2019 to consolidate the segments Denmark–Norway and Finland to a new segment called Nordic. In addition, operations in Estonia and Latvia have been merged with St. Petersburg in the new St. Petersburg–Baltics segment. Comparable figures are available at www.bonava.com.
No other changes to IFRS or IFRIC interpretations are expected to have any material impact on Bonava.

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 forwards where the measurement at fair value of currency-forward contracts is based on published forward rates on an active market.

| Total assets | 8 | 70 | 49 |
| Derivatives | 37 | 4 | 1 |
| Total liabilities | 37 | 4 | 1 |
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.
As of 31 December 2018, operating lease commitments amounted to SEK 582 M according to the Annual Report. Bonava does not apply the exemption relating to short-term lease contracts, and the longest contracts have a term of 30 years, which means that an average term of 17 years has been applied to the calculation for the settlement of present value of operating lease expenses according to the Annual Report 2018 and the opening balance of lease liabilities according to IFRS 16, Leases. The marginal borrowing rate is determined on the basis of geographical market and term; the average interest rate was 3.80 per cent as of 1 January 2019. Bonava's financial lease liabilities as of 31 December 2018 were of minor value. As indicated in the accounting principles, there are no renewal options that can be exercised with reasonable certainty or materially variable index- or price-linked lease payments. The discounted amount thereby amounts to SEK 427 M, corresponding to the lease liability of SEK 427 M reported as of 1 January 2019.

To the Board of Directors of Bonava AB (publ), corp. ID no. 556928-0380
We have conducted a review of the financial Interim Report of Bonava AB (publ) as of 30 September 2019 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 Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Interim Report based on our 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.
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.
