GROUP

"The housing market in Stockholm has continued to be cautious, but there was some stabilization during the second quarter. The cautious market applies in particular to new production of homes with a long time until occupancy. However, customers' willingness to sign a contract early in the process increased slightly during the quarter.

Lower sales and a lower number of housing starts in Stockholm decreased the current production volume during the first six months. We are planning for more housing starts during the second six months provided that the housing market continues to stabilize and planning processes continue to be stable. Housing starts in Stockholm during the second quarter were supported by a normal level of reservations, and profitability continued to be good in the current production volume.

The housing operations in the rest of Sweden are showing good profitability in a market that is primarily stable, but the sales rate was slightly slower.

In Norway, the level of activity on the housing market was good with a slight increase in prices, and the housing market in Finland was stable during the second quarter. Our business in the foreign operations has developed well in 2018, including good land acquisitions.

We have noted that the supply of residential development properties in Stockholm is relatively high, and JM has a very good position to take advantage of the possibilities for acquisitions that may arise. In the rest of Sweden, competition for land has declined slightly. JM's strong financial position also supports our decision to prioritize the start of new housing projects.

In Finland, we acquired a property in Alberga, Esbo. The local planning, with final approval, allows for the development of 850 residential units, making this a strategically important acquisition in Helsinki.

In Norway, we signed an agreement with the real estate company Entra to together develop a new neighborhood in Bryn, Oslo, which has good public transportation connections. The deal is conditional on finalized local planning, which is expected in 2023. JM will be responsible for the development of around 600 residential units, and Entra will be responsible for commercial properties.

Two of the projects we started during the quarter were in the new neighborhood Täby Park north of Stockholm. Täby Municipality is planning for 6,000 residential units and 5,000 work places here on the old racing field. JM is one of several companies that was chosen to develop Täby Park; it will be one of our largest and most exciting projects. Once Täby Park is completed, this will open up connections with the rest of Täby at the same time as the new neighborhood will have its own character. The goal is to build an urban environment that is environmentally, socially and economically sustainable. We started production in the Nor project, which has 132 tenant-owned apartments in a block featuring a pergola and allotments on a large, shared roof terrace. To contribute to green areas and sustainable transport, we are planning a bike room with a simpler bike shop. Project Nor meets a high standard in terms of the climate and the environment. It is one of JM's first projects certified in accordance with the Nordic Swan Ecolabel, which has opened the door to green financing. We also started the Manegen project in Täby Park, which has a total of 128 rental apartments.

We are well-positioned with a good project portfolio that we continue to improve for the housing of the future, at the same time as our strong balance sheet offers us freedom of action."

Johan Skoglund, President and CEO

MARKET, SALES AND HOUSING STARTS JANUARY – JUNE 2018

The housing market in Stockholm continued to be cautious during the first six months, but prices stabilized.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

JM's risk and risk management policies are presented in the 2017 Annual Report on pages 30-33. No significant changes have occurred to change these reported risks.

CONVERTIBLE PROGRAM

The 2018 Annual General Meeting resolved that JM would raise a debenture loan with a maximum nominal value of SEK 160m by issuing a maximum of 640,000 convertible debentures with a maturity of four years aimed at all employees in Sweden.

Upon expiry of the subscription period, the loan amounts to about SEK 45m through the issue of approximately 195,900 convertible debentures.

In accordance with IAS 32, the liability and equity components of the convertible debenture loan are reported separately, which means that the debenture loan is reported in the balance sheet as a liability initially with the nominal amount excluding the equity component.

The subscribed convertible bonds may be converted to shares at a price of SEK 229 between June 1, 2021 and May 18, 2022.

Through conversion, JM's share capital could increase by a maximum of SEK 196,000, which corresponds to a dilution of 0.3 percent of the shares and votes in the company. The convertible debenture loan was settled against cash in June 2018.

HOLDINGS OF TREASURY SHARES

Holdings of treasury shares total 1,476,421.

The number of outstanding shares, excluding holdings of treasury shares, at June 30, 2018, totals 69,583,262.

PERSONNEL

The number of employees at the end of the first six months was 2,591 (2,538). The number of wage-earners was 1,004 (1,026) and the number of salaried employees was 1,587 (1,512). Current staffing is considered well balanced for the current project volume and some adjustments are made on a regular basis. Demand on the labor market is strong for qualified project development skills.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS JM RESIDENTIAL STOCKHOLM

The JM Residential Stockholm business segment develops residential projects in Greater Stockholm. Operations include acquisitions of development properties, planning, pre-construction, production and sales of residential units.

The average prices on the existing home market did not change during the second quarter. The supply of homes continued to be high, and in particular in some local markets.

Competition for well-situated land for housing is judged to be relatively low at the same time as the supply of properties for housing development is relatively high. However, prices of building rights are still at a level that requires selective acquisition.

The housing market in Stockholm continued to be cautious during the second quarter, particularly with regard to new production. However, there was some stabilization during the second quarter. Customers are showing strong interest in JM's projects, but are taking a cautious approach to signing contracts early in the process. However, willingness to sign a contract early in the process increased slightly during the second quarter. Residential units available for sale in the business segment largely have planned occupancy in 2019 and 2020.

Housing starts in Stockholm during the second quarter were

supported by a normal level of reservations, and profitability continued to be good in the current production volume. The plan is for more housing starts during the second six months provided that the housing market continues to stabilize and planning processes continue to be stable.

The business segment's revenue decreased to SEK 3,005m (3,718). The decreased revenue in the second quarter is due to lower sales and a lower number of housing starts over the past few quarters. Operating profit decreased to SEK 524m (710). Profit was burdened by the lower sales. The operating margin was 17.4 percent (19.1).

Cash flow during the first six months is in balance taking into consideration the increase in development properties.

Production was started in the second quarter on 240 residential units in apartment buildings in Danderyd and Täby.

During the second quarter, JM purchased building rights in Solna corresponding to about 50 residential units.

JM RESIDENTIAL SWEDEN

The JM Residential Sweden business segment develops residential projects in growth areas in Sweden, excluding Greater Stockholm. Operations include acquisitions of development properties, planning, pre-construction, production and sales of residential units. Contracting operations are also conducted to a limited extent.

The average prices on the existing home market did not change in the business segment during the second quarter. There were small changes on individual markets within the business segment.

The supply on certain local markets continues to be large. Competition for land for residential purposes has eased slightly. Interest in JM's projects is stable, and customers' willingness to sign a contract early in the process is at a normal level.

The business segment's revenue increased to SEK 2,334m (2,299) and operating profit increased to SEK 394m (339). The operating margin increased to 16.9 percent (14.7). The profit and the margin improved as a result of strong demand and an increase in prices in recent years. However, the sales rate was slightly slower during the first six months of 2018.

A decrease in working capital had a positive impact on cash flow for the first six months.

Production was started in the second quarter on 267 residential units in apartment buildings and single-family homes in Malmö, Staffanstorp, Lund and Gothenburg.

During the second quarter, JM purchased building rights corresponding to 500 residential units in Lund, Staffanstorp, Gothenburg, Linköping and Uppsala.

JM PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

The JM Property Development business segment primarily develops rental units, residential care units and commercial properties in Greater Stockholm. The business segment's entire portfolio comprises project development properties. This business segment also includes JM@home as of January 1, 2018, which offers economic and technical management services to tenant-owners associations as well as home services.

Business segment revenue decreased to SEK 30m (37), of which rental income was SEK 28m (18). Operating profit was SEK 1m (24). The operating profit was burdened by start-up costs for the new business operations, JM@home.

Net rental income for project properties was SEK 17m (10).

Cash flow during the first six months is negative due to ongoing investments in project properties.

Within the Dalénum area on Lidingö, the occupancy rate in the remaining commercial buildings that will not be demolished is 91 percent. Within the Bolinder area in Kallhäll, Järfälla, the occupancy rate in the buildings that will not be demolished is 94 percent.

The Dalénum rental project and its 97 apartments were completed in 2016. All apartments are rented out.

During the second quarter, production was started on a rental project, the Manegen project in Täby, with 128 apartments. Production is also ongoing in four rental apartment projects: the Tjärtunnan project in Stureby, Stockholm, 187 residential units with occupancy in 2018; the Spaken project in Hägernäs, Täby, 136 residential units with occupancy planned for 2018/2019; the Alphyddan project in Sickla, Nacka, 93 student apartments with occupancy planned for 2018; and Alba Lilium, Bredäng, Stockholm, 137 residential units with occupancy planned for 2019.

JM CONSTRUCTION

The JM Construction business segment carries out construction work for external and internal customers in Greater Stockholm and Oslo. Contracting operations conducted in Norway are reported in the JM Construction business segment as of January 1, 2018. Comparative figures have been restated.

Demand in the contracting market in Stockholm is good. Both the building and civil engineering markets are stable, although there is tough competition for the assignments. Demand in the contracting market in Oslo is also good. Orders are good in the business segment with a large number of projects in current production.

Business segment revenue increased to SEK 1,467m (1,229), of which the operations in Norway amounted to SEK 327m (214), and the operating profit decreased to SEK 0m (19). The profit was affected by a negative revaluation in current projects in the Swedish operations. A long-term project is underway in the business segment to raise profitability.

An increase in working capital had a negative impact on cash flow during the first six months of the year.

The business segment received a number of assignments during the second quarter, of which the largest was development work in Norra Djurgårdsstaden for the City of Stockholm.

The largest ongoing assignments are a new operational area at Arlanda Airport (Swedavia), land work in the Stockholm Norvik freight harbor in Nynäshamn (Ports of Stockholm), new production of a school (Vallentuna Municipality), new production of apartment buildings in Norra Djurgårdsstaden (HSB and Riksbyggen) and new production of apartment buildings in Tyresö (Småa and Riksbyggen). The largest ongoing project in the Norwegian operations is the new production of apartments in Strømmen, Oslo (JM Norge).

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

This interim report for the first six months of 2018 has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The consolidated accounts were prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Since the Parent Company is an enterprise within the EU, only EU-approved IFRS are applied. The Parent Company's accounts were prepared in accordance with RFR 2.

The accounting principles and methods of calculation for the Group have not changed compared to the description on pages 82-85 of the 2017 Annual Report with two exceptions: IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 9 Financial Instruments apply as of January 1, 2018. However, the transition to IFRS 15 and IFRS 9 has not had any impact on the Group's or the Parent Company's performance and financial position. For more information regarding the implementation and the principles of IFRS 15 and IFRS 9, refer to pages 82-85 in the 2017 Annual Report.

JM APPLIES THE FOLLOWING NEW STANDARDS AS OF 2018

IFRS 15 REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

IFRS 15 refers to the recognition of revenue from contracts and the sale of certain non-financial assets.

JM makes the assessment that the reporting of the project development of residential units in Sweden can continue to occur with the application of the percentage of completion method. The contracts with the tenant-owners association are entered into simultaneously, are priced as a single unit and are assessed to constitute a performance obligation. Since JM is contractually obligated to deliver a specific building and during the course of the project is entitled to payment, the assessment is made that revenue must be reported over time, i.e. using the percentage of completion method.

With regard to corresponding business in Norway and Finland, the assessment is made that there is no entitlement to payment, which means that, in the same manner as today, revenue must be reported at a specific point in time, i.e. completion.

The assessment is also made that revenue in JM Construction can continue to be reported using the percentage of completion method since the construction is carried out on land that the customer controls.

PARENT COMPANY

CONDENSED INCOME STATEMENT, PARENT COMPANY

As a whole, IFRS 15 is not considered to result in any changes to JM's revenue recognition principles.

IFRS 9 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

IFRS 9 refers to the reporting of financial instruments. It contains rules for classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities, impairment of financial instruments and hedge accounting. JM makes the assessment that IFRS 9 could affect the measurement of some receivables, but the effect is not considered material.

For more information about JM's application of IFRS 15 and IFRS 9, refer to pages 82-85 in the 2017 Annual Report.

SEGMENT REPORTING

JM's contracting operations in Norway are reported in the JM Construction business segment as of 2018. Comparative figures for the business segments JM International and JM Construction have been restated.

JM IN BRIEF

BUSINESS CONCEPT

With people in focus and through constant development, we create homes and sustainable living environments.

VISION

We are laying the foundations for a better life.

BUSINESS

JM is one of the leading developers of housing and residential areas in the Nordic region.

Operations focus on new production of homes in attractive locations, with the main focus on expanding metropolitan areas and university towns in Sweden, Norway and Finland. We are also involved in project development of commercial premises and contract work, primarily in the Greater Stockholm area.

JM should promote long-term sustainability work in all its operations. Annual sales total approximately SEK 17 billion and the company has around 2,600 employees. JM AB is a public limited company listed on NASDAQ Stockholm, Large Cap segment.

FINANCIAL TARGETS AND DIVIDENDS POLICY

The operating margin should amount to 10 percent, including gains/losses from property sales. The visible equity ratio should amount to 35 percent over a business cycle.

Over time, the dividend should reflect the earnings trend in total operating activities and over a business cycle on average correspond to 50 percent of consolidated profit after tax. Capital gains from property sales are a natural part of JM's project development operations and therefore are included in the calculation of dividends.

JM's financial targets are defined based on segment reporting.
