GROUP
GOOD PROFITABILITY IN PROJECT DEVELOPMENT OF RESIDENTIAL UNITS
"We summarize a challenging year on some of our main markets, but at the same time I am very satisfied with JM's performance given the current market conditions. Goods sales initiatives resulted in positive sales development during the year within the entire Group, and housing starts were relatively high, particularly during the fourth quarter. This
means that, with almost 600 rental units in current production, of which 320 were started during the year, we ended the year with continued high capacity utilization even in our operations in Stockholm.
Our housing operations in the rest of Sweden, Norway and Finland also showed good development during the year, and together they represented 57 percent of the Group's operating profit in 2018.
Our main operational challenge during the year has been JM Construction, where, following an assessment in the fall, we decided to gradually focus the operations toward more clearly supporting the Group's residential project management.
The housing market in Stockholm continued to be cautious in the fourth quarter, but JM's sales had a positive development during the quarter. Sales increased from 223 residential units in the third quarter to 286 in the fourth quarter. Housing starts in Stockholm during the quarter were supported by a normal level of reservations, where profitability continues to be good in current production volumes despite price adjustments in a number of projects.
Our housing operations in the rest of Sweden continue to show good profitability in a primarily stable market with stable sales in the fourth quarter as well.
In Norway, the level of activity on the housing market was good, and the housing market in Finland was stable in the fourth quarter. I am pleased that we can finish the year with a high level of housing starts in the Group, with Norway and Finland making a large contribution.
We are seeing that the supply of properties for residential development in Stockholm is relatively high, and JM is in a very good position for taking advantage of the acquisition opportunities that may arise. In the rest of Sweden, competition for land declined slightly during the year. JM's strong financial position also supports our priority to start new housing projects.
During the quarter we started production, for example, on 58 residential units in the Ankaret project in Lomma Strandstad, which is close to Lund and Malmö. To date we have built 800 residential units in this attractive neighborhood by the sea. Ankaret will be a small-scale block with one apartment building containing 37 residential units, four of which are on the top floor and have magnificent roof terraces. Ankaret's 21 street-level units, which have a private entrance from the street, combine the comfort of a single-family home with the freedom of a tenant-owned apartment.
JM's strategy is to have continuous and long-term production of rental housing primarily in the Stockholm region. During the quarter, we started a large project with 192 rental units in Söderdalen, Järfälla, in JM's own balance sheet. Söderdalen is a completely new district that is emerging along Bällstaån river in the southern part of Jakobsberg. Residents will live in a park environment with green areas that is walking distance to sports facilities and other amenities. In Söderdalen we previously started production on around 500 tenant-owned apartments, and we have many attractive building rights for future production.
We are well-positioned with a good project portfolio that is regularly developed for the housing of the future at the same time as our strong balance sheet allows us freedom of action.
As a result also of our strong balance sheet and the stability in our business, the Board is proposing an increase in the dividend to our shareholders."
Johan Skoglund, President and CEO

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.
Average prices on the existing home market did not change in the fourth quarter. The supply of homes continued to be high, particularly 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 in the fourth quarter, particularly with regard to new production. Customers are showing strong interest in JM's projects, and sales increased over the past six months and in the fourth quarter in particular. The willingness of customers to sign a contract at an early stage is in line with the previous quarter and increased gradually during the year. Residential units available for sale in the business segment largely have estimated occupancy in 2020/2021, and the majority in 2020.
Housing starts in Stockholm in the fourth quarter were sup-
ported by a normal reservation level, where profitability continues to be good in current production volumes despite price adjustments in a number of projects. A planned start of a project with a high reservation rate in the third quarter was delayed again while waiting for the final agreement on municipal development work.
Business segment revenue decreased to SEK 5,786m (7,151). Operating profit decreased to SEK 989m (1,438). The lower revenue and profit in the fourth quarter is due to lower sales and a lower number of housing starts during the past year, and a low level of land transferred to projects during the quarter. The operating margin was 17.1 percent (20.1).
Cash flow during the fourth quarter is temporarily burdened by a larger number of residential units in the balance sheet.
During the fourth quarter, production was started on a total of 195 residential units in apartment buildings in Södertälje and on Lidingö. No building rights were acquired in the fourth quarter.

FINLAND
The housing market in the Helsinki region continued to be stable in the fourth quarter. The housing market is in balance, and activity is good.
During the fourth quarter, 41 residential units (59) were sold and production began on 121 units (83). The housing starts in the fourth quarter consist of residential units in apartment buildings in the Greater Helsinki area. The number of residential units in current production amounted to 421 (261).
No building rights were acquired during the quarter.
Available building rights correspond to 3,000 residential units (2,700).
BELGIUM
JM closed its operations in Belgium in 2017. During the quarter, JM entered into an agreement for the sale of a small part of a remaining development property without any impact on profit/ loss. The agreement also includes conditional sales of the remaining building rights. Belgium will no longer be reported as a market as of 2019.
In the fourth quarter, 1 residential unit (1) was sold. There are no more residential units to sell.
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 housing services.
Business segment revenue increased to SEK 73m (60), of which rental income was SEK 65m (41). Operating profit was SEK 10m (27). The operating profit is burdened by startup costs for the new business operations, JM@home.
Net rental income for project properties was SEK 42m (24).
Cash flow during the year was negative due to ongoing investments in project properties.
Within the Dalénum area on Lidingö, the occupancy rate for the remaining commercial buildings that will not be torn down is 91 percent. Within the Bolinder area in Kallhäll, Järfälla, the occupancy rate for the buildings that will not be torn down is 94 percent.
During the year, two rental unit projects were completed in JM's own balance sheet: the Tjärtunnan project in Stureby, Stockholm, and Alphyddan in Nacka. The portfolio of rental units thus includes at the end of the year three fully rented and occupied projects.
Production continued during the year on three additional rental projects in JM's own balance sheet: the Spaken project in Hägernäs, Täby, 136 rental units with ongoing occupancy until the beginning of 2019; the Alba Lilium project in Bredäng, Stockholm, 137 rental units with planned occupancy in 2019; and the Manegen project in Täby, 128 rental units.
During the fourth quarter, production was started on the Havreflingan rental unit project in Järfälla with 192 rental units in JM's own balance sheet.

JM CONSTRUCTION
The JM Construction business segment carries out construction work for external and internal customers in the Greater Stockholm and Oslo areas. 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 at a good level in terms of the civil engineering market. With regard to the housing operations, competition for assignments has increased. Demand in the contracting market in Oslo is at a good level.
Business segment revenue amounted to SEK 2,716m (2,751), of which the operations in Norway amounted to SEK 589m (467), and the operating profit decreased to SEK –156m (11).
The fourth quarter is affected by negative revaluations in current housing projects in Stockholm, where major delays are generating an increase in costs. However, there are still risks in these projects.
Given the weak profitability over a long period of time, the operations in JM Construction were assessed in Q4 2018 with regard to future focus and scope. The Company is now taking measures to gradually refocus the operations toward more clearly supporting the Group's residential project development. The decided measures will entail some restructuring costs in 2019.
The conditions are in place to receive gains from property sales in the period 2019-2021.
During the fourth quarter, JM Entreprenad AB entered into a settlement agreement for a large outstanding account receivable that will result in a positive cash flow of SEK 320m in Q1 2019, but there will be no effect on profit/loss.
Cash flow during the year is burdened by an increase in the working capital.
The business segment received a number of assignments in the fourth quarter within the civil engineering operations, of which the largest is the planning work in Norra Djurgårdsstaden for the City of Stockholm.
The largest ongoing projects are a new operational area at Arlanda Airport (Swedavia), groundwork in the Stockholm Norvik goods 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 residential units in apartment buildings in Strømmen, Oslo (JM Norway).

4) In some cases, JM initially recognizes project financing for Swedish housing projects, and this financing is later taken over by the customer. This take-over occurs without any incoming or outgoing payments, and when the liability is settled it does not impact the cash flow statement. It is neither a negative item (amortization) in the financing activities nor a positive item in the operating activities.

This year-end report and interim report for Q4 2018 were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the 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.
Accounting principles and estimation methods for the Group are unchanged compared to those described on pages 82–85 of the 2017 Annual Report, except that as of January 1, 2018, IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 9 Financial Instruments are applied. However, the transition to IFRS 15 and IFRS 9 has not had any impact on the profit/loss and financial position of the Group or the Parent Company. Additional information regarding the implementation of and the principles for IFRS 15 and IFRS 9 are available on pages 82–85 in the 2017 Annual Report. In addition, as of Q4 2018, the accounting of part of the project financing in JM Residential Stockholm and JM Residential Sweden has been reclassified. It was previously recognized as Recognized revenue in work in progress under the balance sheet item "Progress billings in excess of recognized revenue", but as of Q4 2018 it is recognized as an interest-bearing liability. Comparative figures have been restated and are presented in the document "Reclassification of part of the project financing in JM Residential Stockholm and JM Residential Sweden" at jm.se/investors. The reclassification has not resulted in any changes to the segment reporting, project management or risk profile in JM's Swedish housing operations.
JM APPLIES 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 some non-financial assets.
JM's accounting of the project development of residential units in Sweden continues to occur over time 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. according to 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 single point in time, i.e. completion.
The revenue in JM Construction is also reported using the percentage of completion method since the construction is carried out on land that the customer controls.
As a whole, IFRS 15 does not change 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. It is JM's assessment that IFRS 9 could affect the measurement of some receivables, but the effect is not deemed to be material.
For more information on JM's application of IFRS 15 and IFRS 9, refer to pages 82–85 of the 2017 Annual Report.
NEW STANDARDS ENTERING INTO EFFECT AFTER 2018 IFRS 16 LEASES
This standard will replace IAS 17 Leases, and all related interpretations. It requires lessees to report assets and liabilities that are attributable to all lease contracts, with the exception of contracts that are shorter than 12 months and/or refer to small amounts. Reporting for lessors in all material respects will be the same. The standard must be applied as of January 1, 2019. For JM, the new standard at the start of 2019 is judged on a preliminary basis to result in one asset and liability item in the balance sheet of around SEK 600m. This item consists primarily of the rental of properties in which JM conducts its operations, the rental of the vehicles used in its operations and the rental of land. The effect on JM's income statement in 2019 is judged on a preliminary basis to result in an improvement in operating profit of SEK 18m and a reduction in net financial items by a corresponding amount.
SEGMENT REPORTING
JM's segment reporting differs from IFRS in two respects. In its segment reporting, revenue for JM International is recognized using the percentage of completion method according to IAS 11.
In addition, JM International's project financing, as well as part of the financing of JM Residential Stockholm and JM Residential Sweden, is recorded as a deduction item to "Revenue less progress billings" or "Progress billings in excess of recognized revenue" and raised/repaid project financing is reported in the cash flow from operating activities. These principles serve in JM's internal governance and follow-up as a basis for the Group's income statements and balance sheets as a whole.
JM makes the assessment that segment reporting most accurately reflects the economic implications of JM's business at the same time as it correlates well with the Group's internal governance, which is based on the Group's cash flows, risk profile and capital allocation.
JM's contracting operations conducted in Norway are reported in the JM Construction business segment as of 2018. Comparative figures for the JM International and JM Construction business segments were restated.
ACCOUNTING FOR HOUSING DEVELOPMENT IN SWEDEN
As previously communicated, Nasdaq Stockholm AB (the Stock Exchange) sent questions in April 2018 to a number of housing developers regarding the implementation of IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and the basis for the assessment of whether tenant-owners associations are independent. JM answered the questions in May.
On October 10, the Stockholm Exchange sent the listed housing developers a joint letter stating that it was the assessment of the Stock Exchange that tenant-owners associations could not be viewed as independent. It is thus the individual buyer of the tenant-owned apartment, and not the association, that is the customer, and as a result the Stock Exchange took the position that the revenue must be reported at a specific point in time, not over time (gradually). JM did not, and does not, share the assessment made by the Stock Exchange, but rather considers the associations to be independent.
On December 10, JM received the Stock Exchange's final decision in the form of a letter and an appended memorandum. With regard to the matter of whether or not tenant-owners associations are independent, and thus whether they must be consolidated, the memorandum states that the Stock Exchange, when taking into consideration all relevant facts and circumstances, finds that it is possible for different companies to reach different conclusions. The memorandum also states that there are differences between the companies' operational, business and contractual structures, which may be considered to have an impact on this matter.
In its letter, the Stock Exchanges states that JM does not consolidate its tenant-owners associations, that there is not enough transparency surrounding the grounds on which JM has made this assessment and that there thus is no clear account of the facts and circumstances that led to JM's conclusion. The Stock Exchange thus criticizes JM, and in the 2018 Annual Report JM will provide more detailed and clearer disclosures regarding the grounds for JM's assessment and conclusion.
The Stock Exchange must also inform Finansinspektionen (FI) about such matters, and on January 9, 2019, FI informed JM that it will investigate the matter.
