A WORD FROM THE CEO
STABLE DEVELOPMENT IN FIRST QUARTER BUT COVID-19 CREATES CAUTION
The development in the housing business in Sweden, Norway and Finland continued to be stable in the first quarter with continued good sales and level of housing starts. The supply of newly produced residential units on the market decreased in the first quarter 2020 in both Stockholm and the rest of Sweden. The transaction volume on the total housing market in Sweden continued to increase in the first quarter.
Then, at the end of March, customers began to be cautious as a result of COVID-19. This caution is expected to persist for some time, the duration of which is not possible to predict, and for this reason we are therefore expecting a decrease in demand. We assess the underlying demand for housing to continue to be good on our markets. The reservation and sales levels are high in the projects that will be completed in 2020 in all our markets. This presents opportunities for maintaining production and stable cash flow even during a period of weaker demand, assumed continued stability in staffing and supplier chains.
GOOD RESERVATION AND SALES LEVELS IN CURRENT PRODUCTION IN STOCKHOLM
We continued to see strong demand for JM's housing from customers in Stockholm during the quarter, although the amortization requirements still have an impact. In particular, we have had very strong demand for the freehold apartments we have in current production. The gradual improvement in the market has resulted in reservation and sales growth in Stockholm, with 347 residential units sold in the first quarter compared to 238 in the same period the previous year and 353 in the fourth quarter 2019. Heading into the second quarter, we are seeing caution from our customers in Stockholm due to COVID-19, and we expect demand to decrease for a period of time. We also take a positive stance to Finansinspektionen's decision to grant amortization exemption through June 2021.
The housing operations in Stockholm continued to have good profitability and a good level of housing starts during the quarter. Previously delayed housing starts of projects pending authority decisions have been able to start during the quarter with high levels of reservations.
HIGH LEVEL OF RESERVED AND SOLD RESIDENTIAL UNITS IN PROJECTS TO BE COMPLETED IN 2020 IN THE REST OF SWEDEN AS WELL AS NORWAY AND FINLAND
The housing business in the rest of Sweden showed good profitability with good sales and housing starts during the quarter. Heading into the second quarter, we are seeing caution from our customers also in the rest of Sweden due to COVID-19, and we expect demand to decrease for a period of time.
In Norway, activity on the housing market was good during the quarter, but the market became more cautious at the end of the quarter. In Finland the housing market was stable up until the problems with COVID-19 were accentuated at the end of the quarter. The restrictive response to COVID-19 in Norway and Finland is expected to lower demand for housing for a period of time.
JM AND COVID-19
COVID-19 and its effects will create uncertainty and risks for a period of time. However, JM stands strong in terms of both its business model and its finances. The percentage of reserved and sold residential units in current production is high, and it is even higher for projects that will be completed in 2020. This, together with the very limited disruptions so far in terms of staffing and supplier chains, present possibilities for keeping the business reasonably stable even during a period of a weaker market.
We have had a good first quarter, where JM's strategy for bridging the acute COVID-19 period is to safeguard cash flows and production capacity. To date, the business is naturally dimensioned within the framework of our business model, which can be adapted based on current demand levels.
GOOD PROJECT PORTFOLIO AND STRONG FINANCIAL POSITION
We are well-positioned with a good project portfolio that is continuously developed for the housing of the future at the same time as our strong financial position allows us freedom of action. The fundamental and long-term conditions continue to be favorable for a positive development of our business.
Johan Skoglund, President and CEO
"We have had a good first quarter, where JM's strategy for bridging the acute COVID-19 period is to safeguard cash flows and production capacity."
MARKET, SALES AND HOUSING STARTS JANUARY – MARCH 2020
The housing market in Stockholm continued to improve during most of the first quarter. Profitability continued to be good, and housing starts in the first quarter have a high level of reservations.
The housing business in the rest of Sweden showed good profitability with good sales and housing starts in a market that continues to be stable.
In Norway, the activity on the housing market was good during the quarter, but the market became more cautious at the end of the quarter. In Finland, the housing market was stable until the COVID-19 problems were accentuated at the end of the quarter.
Customers on all markets have become more cautious since the end of March due to COVID-19.
Population growth in our main markets, coupled with continued low interest rates, supports demand for housing.
The number of residential units sold in the form of signed contracts increased to 805 (667)1) 2). The percentage of sold or reserved homes in relation to current production amounts to 69 percent (61), with an interval of 60-65 percent considered normal.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTY FACTORS
JM's risks and risk management are presented in the 2019 Annual Report on pages 32–35 and 79. Aside from the uncertainty from COVID-19, no significant changes occurred that affected these reported risks.
COVID-19 and its effects will create uncertainty and risks for a period of time. However, JM stands strong in terms of both its business model and its finances. The percentage of reserved and sold residential units in current production is high, and it is even higher for projects that will be completed in 2020. This, together with the very limited disruptions so far in terms of staffing and supplier chains, present possibilities for keeping the business reasonably stable even during a period of a weaker market.
JM's strategy for bridging the acute COVID-19 period is to safeguard cash flows and production capacity.
OUTSTANDING SHARES
The number of outstanding shares amounted to 69,583,262 (69,583,262). The company has no holdings of treasury shares.
DIVIDEND FOR 2020
The Board of Directors changed the original proposal of a dividend totaling SEK 12.50 per share to a dividend of SEK 6.25, which was resolved by the Annual General Meeting on March 26, 2020. The intention remains to pay a total dividend of SEK 12.50 during 2020. Assuming that the global situation has stabilized and the visibility for the housing market has reasonably improved, the ambition is to convene an extraordinary general meeting later in 2020 to propose resolution on an additional dividend.
PERSONNEL
The number of employees at the end of the first quarter decreased to 2,540 (2,645). The number of wage-earners was 986 (1,052), and the number of salaried employees was 1,554 (1,593). Current staffing is aligned with current project volume, and adjustments are made on a regular basis. Demand on the labor market for qualified project development skills continues to be strong but has decreased slightly.
SEK m CASH FLOW GROUP In Mariehäll, Bromma, and Årsta, Stockholm, the projects Strandkanten and Rörviksbacken, respectively, entered production during the first quarter. At Bällstaviken in Mariehäll, the Strandkanten neighborhood is being planned with 70 residential units in two buildings featuring roof terraces and lush courtyards facing the water. Rörviksbacken is emerging at the heart of Årsta and offers housing close to the city with lovely walking paths. It consists of 4 tower blocks with 97 residential units and an interior inspired by materials from the 1960s. Both projects are very close to rail traffic and all services.
272 -282 342 444 0 500 1 000 1 000 1 500 The Operetten and Operan projects next to Pildammsparken park in the Rådmansvången area of central Malmö entered production during the first quarter. Operetten consists of 36 residential units with generous balconies and shopping around the corner. Operan offers through JM's subsidiary Seniorgården 69 residential units for the age group 55+, featuring, for example, concierge services and car sharing.
-1 500 -1 000 Q4 Q2 2015 Q4 Q2 2016 Q4 Q2 2017 Q4 Q2 Q4 Q2 Q4 In Norway, Entréen Urban in Lørenskog entered production during the first quarter. Entréen Urban, with 94 apartments, is the final phase of the Entréen area, which has a total of 467 residential units. Only 30 minutes to Oslo, it offers the possibility of living close to the city without having to sacrifice both nature and all conceivable services.
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 showed positive change during the first quarter. The total supply of residential units was normal, but the supply of newly produced tenant-owned apartments continued to decrease.
Competition and supply of well-situated land for residential purposes is considered to have normalized. However, prices of building rights are still at a level that requires selective acquisition.
The housing market in Stockholm continued to improve during most of the first quarter. Customers showed strong interest in JM's projects, and sales continued to improve. The willingness of customers to sign a contract early in the process was at a normal level in the first quarter.
It is difficult to get an overview of the impact of COVID-19 on the housing market at this point in time. No extraordinary measures have been needed to date due to the current situation.
Profitability continued to be good, and housing starts in the first quarter have a high level of reservations.
Revenue in the quarter was strengthened by a high level of transferred land to projects. The improved profit is due primarily to continued high sales and production. Current projects with completion in 2020 have a high sales rate, which supports profitability and cash flow even during a period of weaker sales. The business unit is thus equipped to bridge an uncertain market during part of 2020, assuming stability in staffing and supplier chains.
Cash flow during the first quarter is in balance taking into consideration the reduction in development properties.
Production was started in the first quarter on 240 residential units in apartment buildings and single-family homes in Stockholm, Österåker and Solna. This includes projects that were previously delayed due to necessary authority decisions.

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.
During the first quarter, average prices on the existing home market fluctuated slightly but basically remained the same at the end of the period.
The supply of new production in the first quarter decreased in all of the sub-markets in the business segment compared to the fourth quarter 2019. The supply of newly produced homes in Gothenburg is significantly lower, and in Malmö it is somewhat lower compared to the corres-ponding period last year. Uppsala's supply of new production has almost halved in comparison to the corresponding period last year.
Competition for land for residential purposes was high in some areas during the quarter, and on several local markets competition for land decreased slightly.
Interest in JM's projects was stable in the first quarter with good sales, and customers' willingness to sign a contract early in the process was normal.
It is difficult to get an overview of the impact of COVID-19 on the housing market at this point in time. No extraordinary measures have been needed to date due to the current situation.
Profit and the margin decreased slightly where demand and prices vary on each local market.
Current projects with completion in 2020 have a high sales rate, which supports profitability and cash flow even during a period of weaker sales. The business unit is thus equipped to bridge an uncertain market during part of 2020, assuming stability in staffing and supplier chains.
Cash flow in the first quarter is burdened by a temporary increase in working capital.
Production was started in the first quarter on 261 residential units in apartment buildings in Malmö, Linköping, Örebro and Uppsala.
During the first quarter, 150 building rights were acquired in Malmö and Uppsala.

JM International
The JM International business segment develops residential projects in Norway and Finland. Operations include acquisitions of development properties, planning, pre-construction, production and sales of residential units. Revenue recognition for the business segment is reported using the percentage of completion method.
Business segment revenue increased due to increased sales. The profit and the margin excluding the sale of property amounted to SEK 51m (60) and 5.8 percent (7.0).
Cash flow in the first quarter is burdened by a slight increase in working capital and is primarily attributable to infrastructure costs in Norway.
NORWAY
Prices on the existing home market increased slightly during the first quarter, and activity was good. At the end of the quarter, the market became more cautious due to COVID-19.
During the first quarter, 111 residential units (130) were sold and production started on 100 units (46). Housing starts consist of 94 residential units in apartment buildings in the Oslo region and 6 residential units in single-family homes in Tønsberg outside of Oslo.

During the first quarter, 47 residential units (56) were sold and production started on 36 units (0). Housing starts consisted of residential units in an apartment building in Esbo.
The number of residential units in current production amounted to 738 (364). During the first quarter, 0 building rights (0) were acquired. Available building rights correspond to 4,200 residential units (3,500).
It is difficult to get an overview of the impact of COVID-19 on the housing market in Norway and Finland at this point in time. No extraordinary measures have been needed to date due to the current situation. Current projects with completion in 2020 have a high sales rate, which supports profitability and cash flow even during a period of weaker sales.

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. The operations include JM@ home, which offers economic and technical management services to tenant-owners associations as well as housing services.
Business segment revenue increased to SEK 35m (24), of which rental income was SEK 18m (22), and contracting revenue together with the sale of services amounted to SEK 17m (2). Operating profit was SEK 3m (6). The operating profit is burdened by startup costs for the new business operations, JM@home.
Net rental income for project properties was SEK 13m (12). Cash flow during the first quarter 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 for the buildings that will not be demolished is 94 percent.
The portfolio of rental units includes two fully rented and occupied projects: Tjärtunnan in Stureby with 187 rental units and Alphyddan in Nacka with 93 rental units.
The rental project Valla Park in Sundbyberg (Sundbyberg Lådmakaren 4), with 143 rental units, was sold in 2019 and the legal title will be transferred upon the planned completion date in 2022. Revenue and profit are recognized gradually as the project is implemented.
An additional three rental projects in JM's own balance sheet continue to be either in production or rented: Alba Lilium in Bredäng, Stockholm, 137 rental units with ongoing occupancy 2019- 2020; Manegen, Täby, 128 rental units with planned occupancy in 2020; and the project Havreflingan in Järfälla, 192 rental units with planned occupancy in 2021.

JM Construction
The JM Construction business segment carries out construction work for external and internal customers in the Greater Stockholm area.
Demand in the civil engineering market in Stockholm is at a good level.
Business segment revenue excluding Business area Construction decreased due to lower activity in the civil engineering operations. The operating profit includes gains from property sales of SEK 18m (0).
The loss in the first quarter 2019 of –189m was primarily due to the discontinuation of the housing operations.
Some project risks remain until current projects in Business area Construction are completed.
Cash flow in the first quarter is burdened by an increase in working capital.
In the first quarter, the business segment received a number of assignments in the civil engineering operations, of which the largest is groundworks for the extensive addition to and renovation of Arlanda's Terminal 5 (IN3PRENÖR AB).
The largest ongoing external assignments are groundworks in the Stockholm Norvik goods harbor in Nynäshamn (Ports of Stockholm), an infrastructure project in Tyresö (Tyresö Municipality), and the new production of apartment buildings in Norra Djurgårdsstaden (Riksbyggen). The business segment also has several internal current projects.

3) JM sometimes recognizes initial project financing for Swedish residential projects where the financing is taken over by the customer at a later point in time. The take-over occurs without any in- or outpayments, and when the debt is settled the cash flow statement is not affected, either as a negative item (amortization) in the financing activities or as a positive item in the operating activities.
ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
This interim report for the first quarter of 2020 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 86–89 of the 2019 Annual Report.
NEW AND AMENDED STANDARDS AS OF 2020
The amended standards according to IFRS the Group applies as of January 1, 2020, is expected to have no or a small impact on JM's financial reporting.
SEGMENT REPORTING
JM's segment reporting primarily differs from IFRS in three respects:
In its segment reporting, revenue for JM International is recognized using the percentage of completion method.
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.
The reporting of leases in accordance with IFRS 16 is not applied in the segment reporting.
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.
ACCOUNTING FOR HOUSING DEVELOPMENT IN SWEDEN
The 2019 Annual Report described the ongoing investigation and the preliminary assessment from Finansinspektionen (FI) that tenant-owner associations cannot be considered independent from an IFRS perspective. JM does not share FI's preliminary assessment and submitted a written response at the end of June 2019 stating that the tenant-owners associations are independent and should not be consolidated.
On January 29, 2020, JM received a new letter entitled "Request for opinion," in which FI's preliminary assessment continues to be that tenant-owners associations cannot be considered independent from an IFRS perspective. JM still does not share FI's preliminary assessment and submitted a written response at the end of February 2020 stating that the tenant-owners associations are independent and should not be consolidated.
IFRS is a principle-based framework that often requires assessments. In complex matters like this, it is possible for different parties to make different assessments. An accounting revision in line with FI's preliminary assessment does not affect JM's segment reporting, project governance or business risk profile. JM considers segment reporting to most accurately reflect 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.
