Henrik Blomquist

CEO Bure Equity AB

2022 will be remembered as one of the worst stock market years in two decades. War in Europe, spiralling interest rates, rampant inflation, skyhigh electricity prices, fluctuating currencies, and China closed by covid. Overall, these external factors caused the Stockholm stock exchange to fall 22.7 per cent in 2022. Bure's net asset value per share decreased -39.2 per cent. The stock market decline was particularly pronounced for many growth companies. Several of Bure's portfolio companies can be included in this category. The value trend in all listed portfolio companies was negative for the year and our core holding Vitrolife lost -66.8 per cent. However, in September we saw a turnaround. In the fourth quarter, Bure's net asset value per share increased 19.9 per cent compared to the SIX RX that increased 11.3 per cent.

The situation was challenging on a macro level and for stock markets in 2022. However, our portfolio companies performed well. Mycronic broke sales records and ended the year with a record-breaking order intake. Xvivo grew organically by 30 per cent and BioLamina by 78 per cent. Allgon improved its EBIT margin to just over 15 per cent and ScandiNova doubled its operating profit. Vitrolife also presented a strong report. The transition period following the acquisition of Igenomix formed the basis for, among other things, this year's improvement in margin and strong cash flow.

It is a relief to leave 2022 behind us, even though many concerns persist in 2023. Economic growth will probably continue to be weak, but the likelihood of a severe recession has decreased. Interest rates are still moving upwards but inflation has hopefully peaked. For Bure, it is important to continue to work closely with its portfolio companies and develop their fine businesses. We will help them navigate challenging market conditions and maintain a long-term focus on competitive products and services as well as excellent customer relationships.

Notes

Note 1 – Accounting policies

Bure applies International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as endorsed for application in the EU. This interim report has been prepared in compliance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 2, Accounting for Legal Entities.

Group consolidation principles

Bure Equity is an investment entity in accordance with IFRS 10 - Investment entity.

An investment company does not consolidate subsidiaries in accordance with IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and does not apply IFRS 3 Operating Acquisitions with the exception of subsidiaries that are active in investing activities. An investment company values portfolio companies at fair value in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments.

Since 1 January 2021, the Bure Group consists of the parent company Bure Equity AB, Atle Investment Management AB and Bure Growth AB.

Parent company accounting principles

The parent company's investments in companies and other financial assets are reported at fair value as profit and loss in the same way as for the group.

For further information on accounting and valuation principles, please see Note 1 in the 2021 annual report.

New accounting principles applied from 1 January 2022: revised or amended IFRS standards are not considered to have any significant impact on earnings or balance statements. Bure continuously updates its analysis of upcoming changes.

Note 2 – Segment reporting

All activities in the entity are considered to constitute a single segment.

Note 3 – Effects of changed estimates and assessments

Important estimates and assessments are presented in Note 1 in the 2021 annual report. No changes to these estimates and assessments have been that could have a significant impact on the current interim report.

Note 4 – Financial instruments

Fair value and book value of financial assets and liabilities Fair value has been calculated for all financial assets and liabilities in accordance with IFRS 13. Fair value is estimated to be equal to the book value of accounts receivable and other receivables, other current receivables, cash and other cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, and other liabilities and borrowing. Book value less write-downs is an estimated fair value for accounts receivable and accounts payable. For long-term non-interest-bearing liabilities, fair value has been calculated by discounting future cash flows with current market interest rates regarding the term of the debt.

The investment entity's financial assets and liabilities are classified in accordance with IFRS 13 in the following three categories

Level 1: Listed prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2: Other observable data for the asset or liability other than listed prices included in Level 1, either directly or indirectly.
• Level 3: Data for the asset or liability that are not in their entirety based on observable market data.

Bure reports listed holdings at fair value with changes in value in the income statement (level 1). Bure's listed holdings consist of ACQ Bure AB, Cavotec SA, Mentice AB, Mycronic AB, Ovzon AB, Vitrolife AB, and Xvivo Perfusion AB.

Bure reports unlisted holdings at fair value (level 3). Bure's unlisted holdings consist of Allgon AB, Alcur Fonder AB, AMIP AB, Atle Investment Services AB, BioLamina AB, Fondbolaget Fondita Ab, HealthInvest Partners AB, Mercuri International Group AB, My Driving Academy Sweden AB, ScandiNova Systems AB, Teknik Innovation Norden Fonder AB and Yubico AB.

Bure has chosen to market value all financial assets based on International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation Guidelines (IPEV). The guidelines describe a number of methods for determining the fair value of each holding. Considerable emphasis is placed on recently completed market transactions in the company, e.g., share issues or the acquisition of existing shares. Transactions in comparable companies can also be used. Other valuation methods include discounting of forecast cash flows with relevant discount rates and applying valuation multiples such as EV/Sales, EV/EBITDA, EV/EBITA, EV/EBIT, PER and P/AuM which are adjusted to take into account differences in market, business, and risk. In general, a liquidity discount is also applied for unlisted assets. Valuation takes place on an ongoing basis and is published in conjunction with quarterly reports.
