The consolidated sales revenue of Hepsor for the 2022 financial year amounted to 12.9 million euros (including 7.2 million euros in Q4 2022) and the net profit was 1.3 million euros (including a net profit of 1.5 million euros in Q4 2022).

The Group's revenues and profitability are directly dependent on the project development cycle, which is approximately 24 to 36 months. Sales revenue is only generated at the end of the cycle. Calendar quarters vary in terms of the number of projects ending during the quarter, which is why both profits and sales revenue can differ significantly across quarters. Therefore, performance can be considerably weaker or stronger in some years and quarters than in others. To assess the overall sustainability and economic results of a real estate development company, the portfolio of the company's development projects and three-year average financial results are better criteria for assessing the group's performance.

In 2022, the Group completed three residential and three commercial property projects. The sales revenue for the financial year has been mainly generated from the sale of completed residential development projects. As of the end of 2022, we have handed over 45 apartments to home buyers in Latvia, including 26 apartments in the 4b Strēlnieku, 18 apartments in the 9 Baložu and 1 apartment in the 24 Āgenskalna development projects, and 40 apartments in the Paevälja Hoovimajade development project in Estonia. The sale of 76 apartments and 1,487 sqm of commercial space in the Priisle Kodu development project is not reflected in the Group's sales revenue as the result of the project is recorded using equity method of accounting. In total, we handed over 161 new homes to home buyers in Estonia and Latvia in 2022.

At the end of the year, we handed over the Büroo113 commercial to a modern clinic using an innovative concept. This is the first time that green solutions (geothermal heating and cooling, rainwater use, energy-efficient architecture, excellent indoor climate, solar energy, etc.) have been applied in a city centre high-rise. In Riga, a stock office type commercial building was completed at 30 Ulbrokas 3,645 sqm of which are fully covered with lease agreements.

In Q3 2022, we adjusted the 2022-2024 performance forecasts due to the changes in the economic environment, a decrease in real estate transaction activity and the extension of time needed for the preparation of development projects. When adjusting the forecast for 2022, we assumed that Hepsor would not sell any of the three commercial buildings under construction (Büroo113, Grüne Maja, 30 Ulbrokas) and that by the end of 2022, 34 apartments in the 4b Strēlnieku development project and 48 apartments in the Paevälja Hoovimajad development project would have been sold. As the conclusion of real right contracts for Paevälja Hoovimajad started in December 2022, we were able to conclude 40 real right contracts by the end of the year. As of 31 January 2023, real right contracts had already been concluded for 49 apartments in the Paevälja Hoovimaja development project and therefore the sales revenue for some apartments will be recorded in Q1 2023. In the 4b Strēlnieku development project, we have sold 36 apartments as of the end of 2022, which is two apartments more than forecast. Due to aforementioned reasons, the Group sales revenue and profit are 1.1 million euros and 0.3 million euros lower than forecast, respectively, mainly due to the postponement of the sale of eight apartments in Paevälja Hoovimajade until 2023.

Hepsor has four residential development projects under construction in Estonia and Latvia, with a total of 335 new apartments. As of 31 January 2023, contracts under the law of obligations and reservation agreements have been signed for 75 apartments (82%) in the Mārupes Dārzs development project (92 apartments) near Riga. In the Kuldīgas Parks (116 apartments) project in Riga, contracts have been signed for 103 apartments (89%). Both projects will be completed in Q2 2023. In Estonia, we have completed the construction of the Paevälja Hoovimajad development project, which includes two apartment buildings with a total of 96 apartments. The first phase of the project with 48 apartments was completed at the end of 2022 and the second phase in Q1 2023. As of 31 January 2023, real right contracts have been signed for 49 apartments (51%) and contracts under the law of obligations for 28 apartments (29%). The signing of real right contracts will continue also after the submission of this report, and the respective sales revenue will be reflected in the Group's financial results for Q1 2023. We started with new development projects, including the construction of Ojakalda Kodud with 101 new spacious family apartments (contracts under the law of obligations have been concluded for 28 apartments, or 28% of the total) in Q3 2022, and the construction of the Lilleküla Kodud development project with 26 apartments in Q4 2023.

In Q1 2023, we will start the construction of 171 apartments in the Manufaktuuri Quarter in Tallinn and 38 apartments in the Nameja Rezidence development project in Riga. Both projects are already available for sale and several contracts under the law of obligations as well as reservation agreements have been signed.

The commercial real estate development project, Grüne Maja is being completed in Tallinn following a green concept. The office building is largely in active use and the last tenants are expected to move to the new premises in Q2 2023 at the latest.

In total, we added approximately 156 apartments to our development portfolio in 2022, including 40 in Riga and 131 in Tallinn. Approximately 60 new apartments will be built on the 12 Manufaktuuri property in the Manufaktuuri Quarter together with our long-term cooperation partner Tolaram Grupp. We started the construction of the Lilleküla Kodud development project with 26 apartments already in December 2022. Up to 45 new homes can be built on the properties purchased at 1a Alvari and 5 Alvari. In Latvia, a property was added on Jūrmala Gatve, where we are planning to build an energy class A three-storey residential building with 40 new homes.

Recent years have been turbulent in the real estate sector. Demand for real estate has moved from uncertainty due to Covid-19 in 2020 to record high sales in late 2021. In the past year, the real estate market in Hepsor's home markets in Estonia and Latvia was affected by the Russo-Ukrainian war, skyrocketing energy prices and inflation, and rising interest costs. However, the decline in consumer confidence, which reached its historical low in the autumn of 2022, shows a moderate improvement trend since then.

The sales revenue of Hepsor for the first month of 2023 reflects the previously mentioned trend. In Latvia, in the first month of 2023, we have already sold approximately 30 apartments (the Mārupes Dārzs and Kuldīgas Parks development projects) and have signed an almost equal amount of reservation agreements and contracts under the law of obligations with customers in Estonia (Lilleküla Kodud, 7 Manufaktuuri and Ojakalda Kodud). Hepsor's management is highly satisfied with the result. Customers do not currently make quick purchase decisions, but interest in our projects is high, which makes us moderately optimistic, and we can continue with existing and new projects. We believe that the rather favourable construction prices in the current and coming quarters are worth using to facilitate development projects. When monitoring the interest level among Hepsor's customers in new development projects, we feel that there is moderate space for a drop in the prices of new developments or for price negotiations initiated by customers.

Overview of the Development Projects

As of 31 December 2022, the Group had 26 active projects in different development phases (31 December 2021: 26 projects) and 176,000 sqm of sellable area (31 December 2021: 177,000 sqm).

In accordance with the shareholders agreements between the Group and minority shareholders of subsidiaries (SPV's), the Group has an obligation as of 30 September 2022 to pay 12,904 thousand euros (31 December 2021: 7,501 thousand euros) to the minority shareholders upon realization of the business plan. The obligations amounts are estimations calculated based on current business plans of the development projects as of statement of financial position dates. Contingent liabilities are estimated before the full realization of the development projects at each reporting date. As of 31 December 2022, the realization time of contingent liabilities remains between 2023 and 2027.

18.2 Based on the investor agreement signed in December regarding the 4b Strēlnieku development project, the investor will be paid interest depending on how successful the project is upon its completion. In the opinion of the Group's management, there is certain uncertainty arising from the macroeconomic environment both in terms of the interest depending on the success of the

project and the time when the payment obligation arises, therefore it is not possible to reliably determine the amount of the interest obligation.

Note 20. Risk management

Risk management is part of the Group's strategic planning and decision-making process. The Group is exposed to a number of risks and uncertainties related to, among other factors, the business and financial risks. The materialisation of any such risks could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. The Group's risk management process is based on the premise that the Group's success depends on constant monitoring, accurate assessment, and effective management of risks. The Group's management monitors the management of these risks.

Strategic risk

The Group's strategic risks are risks that can significantly impact the execution of its business strategies and ability to achieve the objectives. Such risks are impacted by changes in political environment and market demand as well as microeconomic developments. While the risks can have negative impact on the Group's business, they can also create new business opportunities. The Group carefully selects the new development projects and monitors the market trends in order to adjust its strategy when significant changes occur.

Market risk

The Group is exposed to price risk resulting from decline in the market values of the Group's real estate development projects or increase in input prices. There can be no guarantee that the Group will be able to sell its development projects in future with prices that are similar or higher than the expected market value of these projects. The Group cannot ensure it is able to sell its development projects with expected prices could have an unfavourable impact on the Group's statement of financial position and may have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, financial condition, prospects and results of operations and execution of its strategy. At present it is not possible to assess the extent of any such potential changes.

The Group's income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. The Group actively uses external and internal borrowings to finance its real estate development projects in Estonia and Latvia. A project's external financing is either in the form of a bank loan or investor loan from minority interest holders denominated in Euro.

The interest rates of investor loans are usually fixed, ie interest rates are not floating and do not depend on Euribor.

The Group's bank loans have both fixed and floating interest rates based on Euribor. The management constantly monitors the Group's exposure to interest rate risk which arises from upward movement in Euribor for loans with floating interest rates.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations towards the Group under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities such as trade receivables from rental property and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and other financial instruments.

In order to minimize credit risk, the Group is only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and deposits cash in banks wellrecognized banks in Estonia and Latvia. If such rating is not available, the Group uses other publicly available financial information and its own trading records to rate its major customers.

The Group is in real estate development business and upon sale of completed property the Group enters into notarized agreement with the buyer. Since most of the transactions are ensured either with money deposited in the notary's deposit account or a bank loan, the Group is not exposed to material credit risk from trade receivables.

Liquidity risk

The Group's liquidity represents its ability to settle its liabilities to creditors on time. A careful management of liquidity and refinancing risks implies maintaining the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities. Due to the nature of the Group's business activities, the Group actively uses external and internal funds to ensure that timely resources are always available to cover capital needs.

The Group manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. The Group mitigates refinancing risk by monitoring liquidity positions, analyzing different financing options on an ongoing basis and negotiating with financing parties over the course of financing.

Capital risk

The core purpose of the Group's capital risk management is to ensure the most optimal capital structure to support the sustainability of the Group's business operations and shareholders' interests.

The Group uses the debt-to-equity ratio to monitor capital structure. The debt-to-equity ratio is calculated as the ratio of net debt to total capital. The management considers the Group's capital structure optimal.

Geopolitical risk

Russia's military invasion and attack on Ukraine's independence, which began on 24 February 2022, is affecting businesses around the world. Although the length, impact and outcome of the ongoing military conflict remain unclear, the effects of the sanctions and restrictions imposed against Russia are clearly felt, including the volatility of commodity prices and the availability of commodities, the rapid increase in energy prices, the increase in global inflation, the monetary policy of central banks, the deterioration of financing conditions and the cooling of the global economy.

Despite the fact that the Group does not have direct contact with the war zone and sanctioned suppliers, all the previously mentioned factors affect the daily activities of the Group. Despite the uncertainty caused by global uncertainty, the Group's management closely monitors geopolitical developments when making development decisions.

Management Board's Confirmation

The Management Board confirms that the unaudited interim report for fourth quarter and twelve months of 2022, which is comprised of the management report and the interim financial statements, provides a true and fair view of the Group's operations, financial position and results of operations, and describes the significant risks and uncertainties the Group faces.
