Coming out of 2024, Kinnevik now has a predominantly private portfolio invested in growth companies coupled with a strong cash position. While we have around 20 larger investments, our priority in the past two years has been focusing our portfolio towards our most promising assets.

Coming out of 2024, Kinnevik now has a predominantly private portfolio invested in growth companies coupled with a strong cash position. While we have around 20 larger investments, our priority in the past two years has been focusing our portfolio towards our most promising assets. As a result, our five high-performing core companies now make up more than half of our portfolio, showing attractive returns as a group. With our permanent capital-backed approach, we expect several of these businesses to remain Kinnevik companies for many years to come. In the fourth quarter, our companies continued to show solid and substantial growth and significant margin improvements. With activity in the private growth markets picking up, our companies are also attracting new investors, validating their potential.
Our NAV amounted to SEK 39.2bn or 139 SEK per share at the end of the fourth quarter of 2024. The fair value of our private companies was up by 7 percent in the quarter driven by a large write-up of TravelPerk and currency appreciation. Significant multiple contraction in listed healthcare providers weighed on the assessed book valuation of Cityblock despite the company's reassuring operational performance. With SEK 1.2bn net invested in the quarter, the private portfolio increased in value by SEK 3.0bn to 28.1bn.
Our core companies – Cityblock, Mews, Pleo, Spring Health and TravelPerk – have delivered on expectations in 2024. During the year, revenues grew by more than 55 percent on average and operating margins improved by 20 percentage points. Our largest investments, Spring Health and TravelPerk, were both EBITDA positive in the fourth quarter.
At the end of January, TravelPerk announced it had raised USD 200m in a new funding round and had agreed to acquire the expense management platform Yokoy. We are happy to welcome Atomico, EQT and Sequoia as new backers of co-founder Avi Meir and his company. Kinnevik first invested in TravelPerk in October 2018 and it has since emerged as a stand-out homegrown European software leader with a combination of growth and profitability at scale. TravelPerk has annualised booking volumes of over USD 2.5bn, annualised revenue of over USD 200m, growth of over 50 percent per annum in the last two years and the company was EBITDA positive during the fourth quarter.
The new funding will be used to accelerate TravelPerk's continued expansion into the US alongside further investments in product development and AI. The acquisition of Yokoy allows TravelPerk to offer a deeper and more unified travel and expense offering to its clients, while expanding its addressable opportunity. After the funding round and the acquisition of Yokoy, we remain the company's largest and most long-term shareholder.
Kinnevik led a new round of funding in Enveda in the quarter. Enveda is unbundling life's chemical code using AI and custom hardware to create breakthrough medicines. Enveda has built a USD 1bn pipeline of 10 medicines in just four years – at a quarter the usual time and a tenth of the cost. The new funding will enable Enveda to deliver more clinical milestones in 2025 and 2026 across multiple candidates with strong commercial potential, continue advancing their pipeline of development candidates, and invest further in their platform.
We are entering 2025 with a record-strong net cash position and with a portfolio of leading growth companies with limited capital needs. This provides us with a high degree of flexibility in our capital allocation. This flexibility will be used in a disciplined way, and we will during the year strike a sound balance between a vibrant pipeline of new opportunities in our focus sectors, strategic follow-on investments in our existing companies, and our new capital allocation tools.
With activity in the private growth markets picking up, our company's current valuations and future potential is consistently being confirmed by other leading growth investors. We look forward to working with these new partners to support our founders and enable their businesses to continue to flourish.
At the same time, the portfolio we enter 2025 with is both more concentrated and pruned, and attractive and stable. This makes us comfortable that our companies continued operational developments will translate into a positive NAV trajectory during the year, provided equity markets remain somewhat stable.
I would like to thank our shareholders for your support in 2024, and I look forward to reporting on our progress throughout the year.

TravelPerk, a leading business travel platform, announced it has raised USD 200m in a funding round led by new investors Atomico alongside EQT Growth with participation from existing investors including Kinnevik and General Catalyst. TravelPerk also announced the acquisition of Yokoy, a leading spend management solution, to accelerate its vision of an integrated travel and expense management platform.
The funding will be used to further accelerate growth - with continued expansion into the US market alongside significant investments into product, technology and AI to deliver the leading travel and expense management platform for SMB and mid-market companies in the US and Europe.
Through its acquisition of Yokoy, TravelPerk is positioned to provide customers in Europe and the US highly localized expense management solutions, to suit their individual needs, preserving customers freedom of choice and flexibility, which is a key tenet of the TravelPerk value proposition.
Akhil Chainwala, Senior Investment Director at Kinnevik and Board member of TravelPerk commented. "Since our first investment in 2018, we have been impressed by the vision and execution of Avi and his team building TravelPerk into the European frontrunner within business travel with global ambitions. With a fully integrated travel and expense management solution, we look forward to continuing backing the TravelPerk team as it accelerates growth in new markets and products."

Enveda, a biotechnology company leveraging AI to transform natural compounds into novel medicines, closed an oversubscribed USD 130m funding round co-led by Kinnevik and FPV Ventures.
This new capital will help Enveda progress its ambitious pipeline, which comprises 10 development candidates targeting areas such as immunology and inflammation, obesity, fibrosis, and neurosensory indications. The company aims to achieve significant clinical milestones in 2025 and 2026, advancing multiple programs with strong commercial potential. Additionally, the funds will support further investment in Enveda's AI-driven platform, which integrates metabolomics data with machine learning to decode nature's chemical diversity.
In October 2024, Mews entered into a strategic partnership with BWH Hotels, the global hospitality enterprise encompassing brands such as Best Western Hotels & Resorts, WorldHotels, and SureStay Hotels. This collaboration designates Mews as a certified Property Management System provider for BWH's European properties, aiming to enhance operational efficiency and elevate guest experiences. Mews' cloud-native platform offers features that streamline property management, from guest check-in to backend operations.

At our 2024 Capital Markets Day, we provided a set of expectations on our capital re-allocation over the coming five years. These parameters cover both how we expect to allocate our capital over these years, and what we expect this will entail in terms of the portfolio composition of Kinnevik when it enters 2030. We also showcased our portfolio with presentations from the founders and CEOs of all our core companies, all available to watch on our website.

Spring Health works with employers, health plans and channel partners to offer their Precision Mental Healthcare platform as a benefit to employees, and their dependents. Spring Health charges these partners for access to the platform and the delivery of certain types of care.
Precision Mental Healthcare, Spring Health's platform, acts as the single front door for beneficiaries and their dependents to receive care for their mental health across the whole acuity spectrum. The Platform combines AI, machine learning and proprietary clinical capabilities to assess and match members to a personalized care plan, whether that's self-guided digital support, coaching, therapy or medication, covering conditions including anxiety, depression and eating disorders.
The company has also rolled out dedicated services and programs for adolescents and neurodivergent individuals. All are assigned a Care Navigator, who helps guide them through their treatment. This approach removes the guesswork from trial-and-error interventions and ensures that members get better, faster.
The clinical results have been truly best-in-class, with the company reporting a 68 percent improvement rate in anxiety and depression cases and 70 percent of members achieving reliable improvement in fewer sessions.
Today, more than 450 directly contracted employers as well as 27,000 indirectly contracted groups have access to Spring Health. Companies such as Microsoft, Target, J.P. Morgan Chase and Delta Airlines work with Spring Health to help improve the mental health of their employees.
With the rapid rise in mental health cases (more than one in five US adults are living with a mental health condition currently), the need has never been greater for timely access to high-quality, behavioral health services. However, with a shortage of providers and patient wait times growing, this is becoming harder to achieve, resulting in a behavioral health market ripe for disruption.
Since day one, we have been highly impressed by Spring Health's tech-enabled care platform delivering personalized care and its continued investment in clinical and technology innovation. This not only delivers a better experience for members, evidenced by strong member testimonials and recovery rates, but also improves the provider experience. Since our investment in late 2021, Spring Health has grown their run-rate revenues by an impressive 15x.
At Kinnevik, we believe that a superior experience for both providers and patients is a crucial foundational element for building a transformational business in healthcare. Under the leadership of its outstanding founders, April Koh and Dr. Adam Chekroud, the results so far are exceptional. Clients are witnessing meaningful return on their investment, the health of members is improving at record rates, and the company is showing phenomenal growth.
Run-Rate Revenues, September 2024 (USD)
Return on Investment in Health Plan Spend A study certified by the Validation Institute found that for every USD 1.00 invested in Spring Health, customers save USD 2.20 on their health plan spend.

The expense management category has historically been highly manual. Employees have used corporate cards and kept paper receipts, which then require manual approval from the finance team, indicating an outdated system in need of disruption and new solutions.
Pleo currently monetizes in two ways: through a SaaS fee, and transaction fees on spend on the platform. The resulting gross margins are high, and we believe Pleo can continue to grow its category leadership and overall stickiness through expansion into other spend management use cases and customer segments. These include, for example, recurring spend, payroll and accounts payable/receivable.
We invested in Pleo in 2018 due to its strong and experienced founder team, its asset-light and scalable business model, solid business fundamentals, and the company's drive to disrupt a historically underserved category.
The business model is attractive given the predictability that comes from having recurring software revenues and de facto recurring transaction revenues. Pleo also shows high net revenue retention as companies increase their usage over time.
Pleo's excellence in product and go-to market strategy, alongside a vast addressable market well into the tens of billions of euros, leads us to believe that there is significant potential for further expansion across the spend management value chain.

The hospitality software and payments market is large, sized at over USD 20bn expected to grow at a double-digit CAGR until 2030. This growth is predominantly underpinned by two major trends: the shift from on-premise to cloud-based software, and continued labor shortage and high turnover among hotel staff.
Built by hoteliers for hoteliers, Mews was created with the mission to transform an entire industry through technology and make hospitality more remarkable for everyone. From their platform position, Mews offers a tightly integrated ecosystem of services that: i) save hotel staff time in day to-day operations; ii) help hotels increase revenue through a user-centric booking engine; and iii) provide hassle-free payment processing services through Mews Payments. Mews is the most connected marketplace in the hotel industry, with over 1,000 integrations.
Since our initial investment, Mews has successfully executed its up-market expansion, with most new sales coming from mid-market clients. As a result, Mews has achieved significant market penetration (20%+ in core geographies) in a historically fragmented market.
Mews is led by founder Richard Valtr and CEO Matthijs Welle, former hoteliers who are joined by a highly talented and complementary management team.
At Kinnevik, we believe that Mews is a perfect example of a successful vertical software business, with the potential to become a one-stop shop for all business needs in the hotel industry, resulting in increased client retention and revenue expansion.
Mews' mission-critical nature as the 'operating system' for hotels results in very low churn. Additionally, we believe that as Mews develops its product suite, the company has the opportunity to build an ecosystem of services where they can "land and expand", increasing its addressable market over time. A prime example of this is the launch of multiproperty capabilities.
Above all, we fully believe in the team's vision to move away from traditional, unrepresentative measurements like occupancy or revenue per available room (RevPAR). Mews aims to rethink how both space and time are utilised within a hospitality venue.

TravelPerk offers a one-stop shop for business travel that adds value to all stakeholders.
For travelers, it provides a true "consumer grade" experience thanks to i) its leading tech platform that holds the world's largest travel inventory, not just a narrow sub-set of favored providers; ii) its superior, 24/7, AI-powered customer support, and iii) its ability to prevent out-ofpocket expenses and painful reimbursement processes.
For the CFO, TravelPerk provides a transparent solution that enables cost control (travel policy enforcement, VAT reclaim, etc.) and compliance (emissions reporting, duty of care, etc.) As a result, it is no surprise that over 65% of TravelPerk's new clients were previously unmanaged – showing that the company is perfectly poised to benefit from the ongoing secular shift.
TravelPerk was co-founded by Avi Meir, who as CEO is
joined by a strong leadership team.
Currently sized at over USD 1.1tn, the Corporate Travel industry is a huge market undergoing a profound transformation. For CFOs, the lack of transparency and control over what is often the second largest controllable cost is unacceptable. And for corporate travelers, outdated technology paired with non-responsive customer service and complex reimbursement processes lead to unnecessary frustration.
At Kinnevik, we believe the corporate travel market is an attractive market given its huge size, the obvious gaps in product standards, and the self-serve dynamics that result in employee-driven adoption of its solution, which in turn results in hypergrowth.
Corporate travel offers significantly better marketing efficiency than leisure travel. Companies are acquired once and see a high share of employee usage within the "walled garden", rather than relying on Google and re-acquisition costs. TravelPerk is the perfect example of corporate adoption of consumer-like solutions, what we term the 'Consumerization of Enterprise'.

Cityblock partners with US health insurers in value-based care arrangements to manage some of insurers' most complex, underserved and marginalized patients. The company focuses on Medicaid (US government-funded health insurance for individuals with limited income) and dually eligible (Medicaid and Medicare programs) beneficiaries.
Cityblock delivers tech-enabled medical care, behavioral health services and social support to high-risk and rising-risk populations. By providing comprehensive and accessible care to marginalized communities, Cityblock reduces reliance on emergency room visits and inpatient admissions. This not only improves patient outcomes and bridges critical gaps in healthcare access but also generates significant cost savings for both patients and health insurers.
Cityblock addresses a massive and growing healthcare need in the US, supporting the most vulnerable population groups that fall between the cracks with a community-based, tech-enabled scalable care model. Today, there are 81 million Medicaid and 13 million dually eligible beneficiaries. Cityblock's vision is to serve at least 10 million members from these groups by 2030.
The company has witnessed impressive growth and results since our initial investment in 2020, having scaled from a small NYC-based business to a company serving seven markets, more than 100,000 members, and working with both national and regional health insurers.
We partnered with Cityblock, not only to address the rising needs of underserved groups, but also because we believe value-based care arrangements are the future of American healthcare. Despite Cityblock's considerable scale already, Cityblock's visionary founder and CEO, Dr Toyin Ajayi, remains deeply motivated to change US healthcare for the better and build a transformational business.

Agreena's purpose is to mobilize farmers and corporations, unlocking the value of nature to help restore the planet and create a more resilient food system. Agreena onboards farmers to regenerative practices and monitors, verifies and reports the results. Their end-to-end tech platform enables the generation and purchase of validated carbon credits as well as visibility of the supply chain for food corporates. Agreena monetizes via a take rate on generated carbon credits and a subscription fee for their supply chain solution.
Changing farming practices can not only restore the soil, increase water quality and biodiversity but also sequester carbon. If applied at scale, regenerative farming can remove 2-5 gigatons of carbon yearly, representing 5-10 percent of emissions caused by humans.
Agreena's versatile platform creates significant climate impact by enabling farmers to apply regenerative practices at scale, and can be built out to offer further solutions for farmers and corporates alike. The company is strongly positioned in a large market with significant tailwinds including corporate and government commitments to lower and remove carbon emissions and increase supply chain visibility.

Enveda is a biotechnology company unravelling compounds in nature that can be used to discover new drugs. The company was founded by Viswa Colluru, a PhD in molecular biology and a true visionary. He previously held leadership roles at Recursion, another Kinnevik portfolio company, which he left in 2019 to start Enveda.
The company was founded with the belief that the answer to many illnesses and diseases can be found in nature. Nature has been a source of inspiration in drug discovery in the past but returns diminished due to limitations in understanding its complex chemical make-up. Enveda uses novel machine-learning techniques to create a 'search engine' to index and map the chemical components of plants.
The company both advances novel drugs to critical points before deciding between in-house development or licensing to pharmaceutical partners. This approach optimizes market presence and mitigates R&D cost, capitalizing on Enveda's unique platform. Though still early-stage, Enveda's potential in transforming healthcare and drug discovery is highly promising.

Stegra's mission is to decarbonize hard-to-abate industries, starting with steel which accounts for 8 percent of global CO2 emissions annually. The company's production utilizes hydrogen, iron ore and an electric furnace to cut carbon emissions by 95 percent. With large-scale steel production going live in Boden, Sweden, in 2026, the company is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for sustainable steel solutions.
Stegra stands to benefit from significant supply-demand imbalances, the potential to leverage new modern technology with a state-of-theart plant, access to cheap electricity, and regulatory tailwinds. Thus, they will be able to create a leading cost position within the European steel industry, with an attractive financial profile.
While the overall project is complex, several aspects are already de-risked, with strong execution since our investment. This includes a technology stack based on existing and proven production methods, securing a significant level of commercial contracts, key permits in place and the first phase of the project being fully financed.

2) The AGM 2024 resolved on an extraordinary cash value transfer to holders of ordinary shares (i.e. Class A shares and Class B shares) through a share redemption plan. Each ordinary share in Kinnevik entitles to one (1) redemption share, and each redemption share entitles to a redemption amount of SEK 23.00 per share
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the IFRS Accounting standards, as adopted by the EU. This report was prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The Parent Company has prepared its interim report according to the Swedish Annual Accounts Act chapter 9, Interim report. Information in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting is provided in the notes as well as in other places in the interim report.
The accounting principles are the same as described in the 2023 Annual Report.
Kinnevik's management of financial risks is centralised within Kinnevik's finance function and is conducted based on a Finance Policy established by the Board of Directors. The policy is reviewed continuously by the finance function and updated when appropriate in discussion with the Audit & Sustainability Committee and as approved by the Board of Directors. Kinnevik has a model for risk management that aims to identify, control and reduce risks. The output of the model is reported to the Audit & Sustainability Committee and Board of Directors on a regular basis. Kinnevik is mainly exposed to financial risks in respect of:
For a more detailed description of Kinnevik's risks and uncertainties, as well as risk management, refer to Note 17 for the Group in the 2023 Annual Report.
The Board of Kinnevik has adopted a Related Party Transactions Policy ensuring that Kinnevik's decision-making procedures and disclosure of executed related party transactions are in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
Kinnevik's related party transactions primarily consist of investments in the subset of Kinnevik's investee companies that are deemed related parties. Investees are primarily defined as related parties due to them being associated companies in which Kinnevik holds a larger ownership interest. Additionally, investee companies Stegra and Aira are deemed related parties due to Kinnevik's Board Director Harald Mix's ownership interest and role as Chairman of the Board in both these companies, and due to Kinnevik's Board Director Susanna Campbell's role as Board Director of Stegra and ownership interest in both companies. She is also advisor to the controlling shareholder of Stegra and Aira, Vargas Holding.
During the second quarter, non-immaterial related party transactions encompassed a loan of SEK 195m to Oda/Mathem (which is deemed a related party due to being associated company of Kinnevik) that was converted into shares during the third quarter. During the third quarter, non-immaterial related party transactions encompassed a loan of SEK 230m to Aira and a loan of SEK 145m to Oda/ Mathem. Both loans were converted into shares during the same quarter. During the fourth quarter, non-immaterial related party transactions encompassed an investment of SEK 58m into Aira. Apart from these transactions, no other related party transactions have been concluded during the full-year 2024.
Investments in investee companies are included in financial assets accounted at fair value through profit and loss. Interest income from loans to investee companies is recognized as external interest income through profit and loss. All transactions concluded with related parties during 2024 have taken place on an arm's length basis on fair market conditions. In all agreements relating to goods and services prices are compared with up-to-date prices from independent suppliers in the market to ensure that all agreements are entered into on market terms.
In assessing the fair value of our unlisted investments, we adhere to IFRS 13 and the International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation Guidelines. Valuation methods primarily centre around revenue, gross merchandise value, and profit multiples, with due consideration to differences in size, growth, profitability and cost of equity capital. We also consider the strength of a company's financial position, cash runway, and its funding environment. Valuations in recent transactions are not applied as a valuation method, but typically provides important points of reference. When applicable, consideration is given to preferential rights such as liquidation preferences to proceeds in a sale or listing of a business.
The valuation process is led by Kinnevik's CFO, independently from the investment team. Accuracy and reliability of financial information is ensured through continuous contacts with investee management teams and regular reviews of their financial and operational reporting. The valuations are approved by the CEO after which a proposal is presented and discussed with the Audit & Sustainability Committee and Kinnevik's external auditors. After their scrutiny and potential adjustments, the valuations are approved by the Audit & Sustainability Committee and included in Kinnevik's financial reports.
When establishing the fair value of other financial instruments, methods assumed to provide the best estimation of fair value are used. For assets and liabilities maturing within one year, a nominal value adjusted for interest payments is assumed to provide a good approximation of fair value.
Information in this note is provided per class of financial instruments that are valued at fair value in the balance sheet, distributed per the below:
Level 1: Fair value established based on listed prices in an active market for the same instrument.
Level 2: Fair value established based on valuation techniques with observable market data, either directly (as a price) or indirectly (derived from a price) and not included in Level 1.
Level 3: Fair value established using valuation techniques, with significant input from data that is not observable in the market.

Q3 2024 - Q4 2024, Illustrative Approximations, SEKbn


In the fourth quarter as well as during 2024, the fair value of our core companies increased by 10 percent, supported in part by positive currencies. Including investments made, the fair value of our core companies grew by 14 percent in the quarter and by 28 percent during the year.
At the end of 2024, our core companies represented 53 percent of our growth portfolio, up from 41 percent at the end of 2023, and from 30 percent at the end of 2022.
During 2024, this group of core companies has grown revenues by more than 55 percent and have improved their operating margins by more than 20 percentage points. Spring Health and TravelPerk were both EBITDA profitable in the fourth quarter. Our core companies are all well-funded, with an aggregate SEK 9.5bn in cash on their balance sheet.
With improved margins, significant cash balances, and proven unit economics – many of our core companies are increasing investment into growth in 2025 instead of driving towards or maintaining positive bottom-line profitability. This, together with an increased weight in TravelPerk, leads to the forward-looking financial profile of our core companies to point towards 40-45 percent topline growth (including inorganic growth) and a single-digit EBITDA loss margin. Both growth rates and EBITDA margins varies by 20-25 percentage points in-between individual core companies.
The increased growth investment in 2025 is expected to lead to maintained or accelerating percentage growth rates in 2026, and is financed by our companies' strong financial positions. TravelPerk's funding round during the quarter provides a solid indicator of how proving profitability and then reprioritizating growth can be rewarded in private markets, and of the level at which we value our core companies.
Our private investees' revenue growth and EBITDA margins met our expectations on average in 2024. Revenue growth averaged 42 percent in 2024, slightly above our 40 percent expectation at the outset of the year driven by capital allocation and changes in portfolio composition during the year.
The financial position of our fast-growing private portfolio remains robust. In terms of percentage share of portfolio value, 43 percent of our companies demonstrated EBITDA profitability in 2024 either by maintaining positive margins throughout the year or during the fourth quarter. These included Spring Health and TravelPerk, as well as our non-core mature companies Betterment, Cedar, HungryPanda, Instabee and Omio. An additional 41 percent of our portfolio sits in companies funded to break-even with a buffer. Companies representing 9 percent of our private portfolio are likely to require new capital over the coming twelve months under their current business plans.

Multiples were up 3 percent on average in our private portfolio's peer universe in the quarter, and down by 1 percent during 2024, excluding VillageMD. The valuations of our private companies were based on multiples expanding by a comparable 2 percent in the quarter, and contracting by 22 percent during 2024, excluding VillageMD.
Our investees are typically growing significantly faster than their public market equivalents but demonstrate weaker profitability. This is taken into account when valuing our investees relative to these benchmarks. At the end of the year, our private portfolio was valued at an average 12 percent premium to its average public market benchmark, while growing at an average 3.4x faster rate. Relative to its top quartile public market benchmark, our private portfolio was valued at an average 44 percent discount and was growing at an average 2.3x faster rate. A full list of public peer companies used to assess the fair value of our investments is available on our website, and we provide more information on our investees on the following pages.
Currencies had a significant positive effect in the quarter and during 2024. In aggregate, currencies had a positive SEK 1.6bn impact on the fair value of our private portfolio in the quarter, and a positive SEK 1.9bn impact during 2024.
Q4 2023 – Q4 2024, SEKbn and % of Unlisted Fair Value

During 2024, we have observed or participated in primary and/or secondary transactions in 71 percent of the private portfolio by value. Valuations in these transactions have on average occurred at a 10 percent premium to our own assessed valuations in the quarter preceding each of these respective transactions. Secondary transactions have on average occurred at 20 percent discounts to our fair values, and primary transactions at an average 28 percent premium.
The aggregate effect of liquidation preferences amounted to SEK 1.6bn at the end of 2024, flat in the quarter mainly due to currency effects offsetting underlying write-ups, and down 13 percent from SEK 1.9bn at end of 2023. The aggregate impact corresponds to 6 percent of the private portfolio's fair value, down from 7 percent at end of 2023. We expect this effect to continue to decrease going forward, making for less ambiguous and more dynamic fair values.

Within Health and Bio, our largest investments are in companies specializing in virtual and value-based care.
Our virtual care businesses deliver specialized care services through virtual channels, and leverage technology such as AI to improve the care outcomes for their users. These businesses sell to employers and insurers and have a high share of recurring revenues, but as healthcare companies they require higher costs for servicing the end-user of their products than business software may do. The appropriate public market benchmark for valuing our virtual care businesses is therefore high-growth SaaS businesses and healthcare technology businesses that share our investments' structurally lower gross margins in the 50-70 percent area.
We believe Spring Health should be valued in between these two peer sets of lower-margin SaaS and healthcare technology benchmarks. In the quarter, these benchmark's gross profit multiples expanded by 7 and 1 percent, respectively, whereas our gross profit multiple was down 5 percent. On an NTM revenue multiple basis, our valuation is now at an approximate 15 percent premium to the average healthcare technology peer, and at a 35 percent discount to the average SaaS peer. On an NTM gross profit multiple level, our valuation remains at a discount, albeit slight, to the average lower-margin SaaS peer. Spring Health grows 3-6x faster than these peer group averages and is cash flow profitable. As at September 2024, Spring Health was run-rating more than USD 400m in revenue. Our fair value increases by 18 percent in the quarter driven by growth, cash generation and currency tailwind.
Value-based care companies take risk on patient health outcomes, and is rewarded if it keeps their patients healthy and out of the hospital. With the leading listed value-based care companies having all been acquired and taken private during 2022 and '23, our valuation of Cityblock is mainly benchmarked against more traditional fee-for-service care businesses such as United Health (UNH) and Humana (HUM), and value-based care enabler businesses such as Privia (PRVA), where gross margins are in the 15-20 percent area. On a pro forma basis within the company's existing footprint, Cityblock grew revenues by more than 30 percent during 2024 to more than USD 1bn, and the company is expected to accelerate growth in 2025 and '26 by leveraging its significant cash balance and the progress it has made in contract risk assessment and market diversification. In the quarter, peer multiples declined by 20-35 percent. As a result, the fair value of our investment in Cityblock decreases by 26 percent in this quarter to SEK 1.7bn, based on a conservative and depressed forward revenue multiple of 1.2x.
In Q3 2024, we wrote down our underlying valuation of VillageMD to a level where there is no residual value to equity holders after controlling shareholder Walgreens' debt has been repaid, entailing a full write-off of our fair value. This was the result of the company's and Walgreens' failed and debt-financed acquisition of Summit Health. In the fourth quarter, Walgreens announced that they had changed leadership at VillageMD and that they are moving ahead with a separation and sale of the company's assets. For fair value purposes, we expect no proceeds from this sale process.

Key Public Benchmarks as at Quarter-End


Our Software businesses are benchmarked against three sets of peers. First, SaaS companies whose growth profile comes closest to resembling our investees. Constituents differ over time but include companies such as Snowflake (SNOW), CrowdStrike (CS), SentinelOne (S), and Cloudflare (NET). Second, companies with a high share of transactional or usage-based revenue rather than strictly recurring streams – and therefore with gross margins like many of our investees. These include Shopify (SHOP) and Bill.com (BILL). Finally, we consider vertical-specific peers. These include Veeva (VEEV) and Doximity (DOCS) for Cedar, and Toast (TOST) for Mews. Growth remains a key driver of the public market multiple levels, and our businesses are valued at or below what is suggested by the correlation between growth and multiples in public markets. Multiples are adjusted further due to differences in profitability, financial strength, and the percentage share of recurring revenues relative to more transaction-based revenue.
Pleo announced at our October 2024 Capital Markets Day that it had hit EUR 140m (USD 150m) in run-rate revenues, and the company grew 2-3x faster than its listed SaaS benchmarks in 2024 with above-average gross margins. Profitability improvement measures over the past years have shown good results, and in 2025 Pleo plans to accelerate investment in product and market expansion. This leads to stalling margin improvements in 2025, but is expected to create a larger and stronger business in 2026 and beyond. Our valuation approach for NAV purposes does not factor in these medium-term expected gains, and instead lets 2025's increased growth investments weigh on the fair value of our investment, which decreases by 10 percent to SEK 2.4bn.
TravelPerk raised a USD 200m funding round during late 2024 and early 2025, led by new investors Atomico and EQT Growth. The funding round values TravelPerk 40 percent above our underlying valuation assessment in the previous quarter on a like-for-like basis. The company hit annualized revenues of USD 200m in late 2024, and was EBITDA positive throughout the fourth quarter. In 2025, TravelPerk will return to negative margins as it invests its new funding in continued US market expansion, technology and AI. The fair value of our investment in TravelPerk increases by 78 percent in the quarter to SEK 4.3bn when including our 485m aggregate investment made in the quarter.
Our valuation of Mews increased by 7 percent in the quarter to SEK 1.1bn, mainly driven by peer multiple expansion of 13 percent. Our valuation is slightly above what was ascribed the company in its Q1 2024 funding round. The company grew revenues by more than 50 percent in 2024 and hit more than EUR 240m in run-rate revenues in November 2024.

Our Platform & Marketplaces investments span businesses such as Instabee with gross margins in the 40-50s, to businesses like Betterment with gross margins in the high 70s. We therefore benchmark our investments against bespoke peer sets. Irrespective of business model, many of these investments share exposure to consumer spend and e-commerce. These areas and our investees faced significant growth headwinds in 2023 and 2024, as reflected in our financial projections.
Betterment is primarily benchmarked against digital banks and wealth management platforms such as Charles Schwab (SCHW) and Robinhood Markets (HOOD). Assets Under Management ("AUM") have increased materially during 2023 and 2024 in part driven by significant growth in its cash deposit product. AUM now amounts to USD 55bn, up 23 percent over the last twelve months, and revenue growth has been meaningfully stronger. Meanwhile, the company has been cash flow profitable throughout 2024. Our fair value increases by 21 percent to SEK 1.7bn due to continued growth, cash generation, and positive multiple developments in listed peers.
HungryPanda is benchmarked against listed food delivery companies such as Delivery Hero (DHER) and DoorDash (DASH). The company achieved EBITDA profitability in 2024, and our fair value remains virtually unchanged in the quarter.
Our valuation of Instabee is unchanged from the level set in the company's Q2 2024 funding round, and is benchmarked against a set of businesses spanning last-mile logistics operator InPost (INPST. AS) and food delivery marketplace DoorDash (DASH). The company achieved EBITDA profitability in the second half of 2024 and is aiming to accelerate growth in 2025 while achieving cash flow profitability.

Our Climate Tech category consists of companies with a range of business models but with a shared aim of disrupting carbon-intensive sectors.
Stegra is targeting the USD 1tn global steel industry with an integrated production line that reduces GHG emissions by up to 95 percent compared to traditional steel production. In early 2024, the company announced that they had raised EUR 4.2bn in debt financing. This, together with more than EUR 2.1bn in total equity funding and 350m of grant funding, means that the first phase of the Boden plant is fully funded. The plant is expected to start production in 2026 and half of the projected initial annual volumes of 2.5 million tonnes in this first phase have been pre-sold in binding five- to seven-year offtake agreements, which represent SEK 100bn in revenues based on normalized steel prices. We calibrate our valuation using several methods, primarily discounted cash flows and forward EBITDA multiples benchmarked against a broad peer set. Directly comparable companies are scarce; hence our peer set includes both companies pioneering decarbonization as well as steel and premium metal producers. For the latter group, we consider aspects impacting comparability. These include these businesses' negative climate impact and generally outdated production facilities that drive a high operating capex, which together with increasing CO2 regulation weigh on the valuations of traditional steel companies. Medium-term expectations, and thereby our valuation, are sensitive to Stegra meeting a set of milestones such as fulfilling debt conditions, on-plan capex spend and effectiveness, and a maintained timeline to production start. Timely progress against these milestones, or a lack thereof, will impact our valuation positively or negatively. In Q2 2024, Stegra raised additional equity capital at a valuation in line with our underlying valuation assessment, and our fair value remains virtually unchanged in local currency.
Solugen produces low carbon, bio-based chemicals through a unique chemienzymatic process using non fossil fuel-based feedstock, which is greener, cheaper and safer than traditional chemical production. The company has a robust pipeline of commercial chemicals with a combined annual revenue potential of over USD 20bn across application areas such as agriculture, energy, water treatment, construction, cleaning and personal care. Solugen's first commercial plant has been operating since 2022 and in 2024 the company announced it had broken ground on its second. We assess the fair value of our stake using several valuation methods, primarily forward-looking revenue multiples on the company's probability-weighted chemical pipeline relative to listed biotech companies and chemical producers. In this quarter, the valuation remains largely unchanged in local currency, and practically in line with a recent secondary transaction in the company.
Aira, offers an end-to-end solution for intelligent heat pumps. The unique business model makes directly comparable companies scarce. To provide a benchmark, we value Aira based on revenue multiples of Home energy product manufacturers such as Nibe (NIBE-B.ST) and Lennox (LII), energy installers such as Sunrun (RUN) and Sunnova (NOVA) as they represent the best available options, despite their limitations in aligning perfectly with Aira. We also reference valuations in recent fundraises in the private renewable energy equity market such as Enpal and 1komma5. Aira has ambitious expansion plans across Italy, Germany and the UK, and aims to serve 5 million homes within the next decade. The company has recently commenced production of their own intelligent heat pumps in Poland . Aira was run-rating EUR 100m in annualized revenue in October 2024. Our SEK 58m investment in the quarter was part of a second close of the funding round in Q3 2024. Our valuation remains largely in line with our aggregate investment into the company.
Agreena operates a platform with measurement, reporting and verification capabilities that enables farmers to sell carbon credits as they transition to regenerative agriculture practices. They also help food companies monitor their supply chain's carbon footprint through a subscription service. We benchmark our valuation of the company against broad sets of high-growth SaaS companies and marketplaces, due to Agreena's businesses lines similarities and gross margin profile. More than 2,300 farmers across 20 markets partner with Agreena, and 4.5 million hectares of farmland are registered on the company's platform. During January 2025, Agreena as the first large-scale arable agriculture project received certification from Verra, a world leader in developing and managing standards for sustainability development and climate action goals, an important milestone the company. Our assessed valuation corresponds to an NTM revenue multiple of 4.7x, slightly discounted relative to public peers due to Agreena's smaller scale. The fair value of our 16 percent stake remains largely unchanged in the quarter.

Kinnevik currently has no bank loans outstanding, and its bank facilities when drawn carry variable interest rates. Debt capital market financing typically consists of commercial paper and senior unsecured bonds. Commercial paper may be issued with a maximum tenor of twelve months under Kinnevik's SEK 5bn commercial paper program, and senior unsecured bonds may be issued with a minimum tenor of twelve months under Kinnevik's SEK 6bn medium-term note programme.
In order to hedge interest rate risks, Kinnevik has entered into a number of interest rate swap agreements whereby it pays a fixed annual interest rate also on bonds with a floating rate coupon. The derivatives had a positive market value of SEK 79m at the end of the quarter and are marked to market based on discounted cash flows with observable market data. The derivatives are covered by ISDA agreement.
As at 31 December 2024, the average interest rate for outstanding senior unsecured bonds amounted to 1.3 percent and the weighted average remaining tenor for all Kinnevik's credit facilities amounted to 1.9 years. The carrying amount of the liabilities is a reasonable approximation of fair value as they bear variable interest rates.

Kinnevik applies the Esma Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures (APM). An APM is a financial measure of historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows, other than a financial measure defined or specified in the applicable financial reporting framework. For Kinnevik's consolidated accounts, this typically means IFRS.
APMs are disclosed when they complement performance measures defined by IFRS. The basis for disclosed APMs is that they are used by management to evaluate the financial performance and therefore believed to give analysts and other stakeholders valuable information. Definitions of all APMs used are found below and reconciliations can be found on Kinnevik's corporate website www.kinnevik.com.

We have reviewed the interim report for Kinnevik AB for the period 1 January - 31 December 2024. The Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review has a different focus and is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and other generally accepted auditing practices. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed based on an audit.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not, in all material respects, prepared for the Group in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act, and for the Parent Company in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.
