"Our priorities for 2018 are clear.

chIEF ExEcuTIVE'S REVIEw
Dear Shareholders,
During my frst quarter as CEO, focus has been on engaging with a multitude of stakeholders, including management and employees across our group, shareholders, partners and entrepreneurs. I am very impressed by the drive and commitment that I have seen at all levels, and I am confdent that we have a great platform from which we can continue to drive Kinnevik's strategy and create long-term shareholder value.
In my frst week as CEO, Tele2 and Com Hem announced their intention to merge. The regulatory approval process is on track and the formal merger notifcation will be fled during the second quarter. Ahead of the proposed merger, which will combine two highly cash generative businesses, Tele2 and Com Hem announced an updated shareholder remuneration and leverage policy based on at least 80 percent payout of equity free cash fow as ordinary dividend, combined with extraordinary capital distribution to maintain a net debt to EBITDA target range of 2.5–3.0x. With this policy, the combined company is expected to distribute in excess of 100 percent of equity free cash fow to shareholders, through a combination of dividends and share repurchases. We believe this is a strong fnancial framework, which will enable the combined company to offer competitive shareholder remuneration and value creation.
The second large transaction announced in January, the merger between MTG Nordics and TDC, did not materialise as TDC became the target of a bid. However, the strategic rationale of separating MTG into two businesses remains. In March, the company announced its intention to split into Modern Times Group and Nordic Entertainment Group ("NEG"). This transaction will create two different listed companies with clear business profles, each well-positioned to capitalise on consumer trends, capture growth opportunities and generate sustainable value for owners, customers and employees. We are very supportive of the transaction and believe both MTG and NEG have the size and maturity to operate successfully on a stand-alone basis.
We have set out to identify and accelerate the key assets in our private portfolio. During the quarter we led a funding round, announced in April, in digital health company Livongo, investing a further USD 41m taking our ownership to 8 percent. Since our frst investment a year ago, Livongo has grown its membership by 2.5 times and reinforced its position as a leader in the management of chronic conditions, starting with diabetes and hypertension.
As part of our increased focus on building our private portfolio in the Nordics, we agreed to invest SEK 80m for a 20 percent stake in Budbee in April. The company operates a modern customer centric last-mile logistics platform specialised for ecommerce businesses. We see great potential and signifcant market opportunity as e-commerce continues to grow, and look forward to working with the founders and management as they expand their business. In addition, we have a strong pipeline of interesting opportunities within our target sectors.
For Kinnevik to be an active owner and support our companies in the best way, it is important that we understand the operational environment and challenges they face. During the quarter, we have strengthened the Kinnevik management team through two key hires with strong operational backgrounds. Andreas Bernström joined Kinnevik as Investment Director in March with a proven track record as an entrepreneur and a leader of fast-growing digital businesses. I expect him to play an important role in our business going forward, both in identifying opportunities as well as acting as a partner and advisor to the companies within the Kinnevik group. In addition, we have recruited Lars-Åke Norling as Investment Director and Sector Head of TMT, starting 1 September. All Kinnevik's assets will stand to beneft from Lars-Åke's wealth of experience in value creation and operational excellence, as well as his deep understanding of how to drive proftable consumer engagement in the TMT sector in Sweden and in emerging markets.
Kinnevik's NAV increased by 3 percent to SEK 93.3bn, or SEK 339 per share, in the frst quarter, driven mainly by a positive development in our large listed assets, including Zalando and Millicom. The value of our private assets increased slightly in the quarter to SEK 12.0bn. On 25 April, Kinnevik's NAV had increased by SEK 1.6bn to SEK 94.8bn, or SEK 345 per share.
Kinnevik ended the quarter in a strong fnancial position with net debt of SEK 1.1bn, corresponding to a leverage of 1 percent. For the fscal year 2017, Kinnevik's Board of Directors recommends a dividend of SEK 8.25 per share, corresponding to a 3 percent dividend yield based on the closing price for 2017, to be approved by the Annual General Meeting in May.
Our priorities for 2018 are clear. With active ownership as a core pillar of our strategy, we will continue to drive value in our TMT assets, identify the companies we want to accelerate in our private portfolio, and increase our efforts to identify new investments in our focus markets, including the Nordics. Three months into the job as CEO of Kinnevik, I feel that we have already made very good progress in many areas. Kinnevik will host its Annual General Meeting in Stockholm on 21 May, and I look forward to seeing many of you there!

Kinnevik's objective is to generate a long term total return to our shareholders in excess of our cost of capital. We aim to deliver an annual total shareholder return of 12-15% over the business cycle.
Given the nature of Kinnevik's investments, our goal is to carry low leverage, not exceeding 10% of portfolio value.
Kinnevik aims to pay an annual dividend growing in line with dividends received from our investee companies and the cash fow generated from our investment activities.
Kinnevik will make share buybacks when our shares trade at a signifcant discount to their intrinsic value, as perceived by Kinnevik, and the company has signifcant net cash (taking into consideration its dividend expectations, net investment plan and operating cost).
There were no signifcant investments or divestments during the quarter.

1 Net invested amounts include SEK 1.0bn in share distributions received from Rocket Internet.
2 Ownership not adjusted for employee stock option plans and employee equity at subsidiary level.
3 Ownership on a fully diluted as converted basis.
At the end of March, the fair value of Kinnevik's unlisted fnancial assets amounted to a total of SEK 11,994m, to be compared with an accumulated invested amount (net after dividends received) of SEK 12,163m. The change in fair value, plus dividends received, amounted to SEK 318m in the quarter, as specifed in the table on the previous page.
Kinnevik's unlisted investee companies adopt different fnancing structures, and may at times issue shares with liquidation preference rights. Liquidation preferences determine how proceeds from a liquidity event are allocated between shareholders. This allocation may become increasingly complex as a company raises several funding rounds at different valuations. As Kinnevik's participation often varies between funding rounds, Kinnevik's share of proceeds may signifcantly deviate from its percentage ownership of the investee company's issued equity. Accordingly, an increase or decrease in value of an investee company's equity where liquidation preferences are applicable may result in a disproportionate increase or decrease in the fair value of Kinnevik's shareholding in that investee company. An unlisted investee company's transition into a publicly listed company may also affect the value of Kinnevik's shareholding due to the dismantling of such provisions.
The fair value of Kinnevik's 35 percent shareholding in Global Fashion Group ("GFG") amounts to SEK 5,300m as at 31 March 2018, based on a total value of GFG's fully diluted equity of EUR 1.5bn. The valuation of GFG implies an average multiple of 1.2x the company's last twelve months' net revenues as at 31 December 2017. The implied average multiple corresponds to a 48 percent discount to a group of listed and proftable developed market fashion e-commerce peers, and discounts vary between GFG's different regional businesses. The peer group has been updated in the period and now includes Asos, Boozt and Zalando. The implied discount not only refects differences in historic growth and proftability, but also Kinnevik's assessment of equity risk premiums across GFG's partly emerging market focused footprint as may be referenced from a broader set of publicly traded emerging market companies.
The fair value of Kinnevik's 17 percent shareholding in home24 amounts to SEK 299m as at 31 March 2018, based on a total value of Home24's fully diluted equity of EUR 325m. The valuation of Home24 applies a multiple of 1.2x the company's last twelve months' net revenues as at 31 December 2017. The applied multiple corresponds to a 30 percent discount to a group of listed e-commerce peers, and refects differences in historic growth and proftability.
The fair value of Kinnevik's 17 percent shareholding in westwing amounts to SEK 483m as at 31 March 2018, based on a total value of Westwing's fully diluted equity of EUR 276m, treating outstanding warrants as debt. The valuation of Westwing applies a multiple of 1.2x the company's last twelve months' net revenues as at 31 December 2017. The applied multiple corresponds to a 30 percent discount to a group of listed e-commerce peers, which refects differences in historic growth and proftability.
The fair value of Kinnevik's 17 percent shareholding in Quikr amounts to SEK 1,426m as at 31 March 2018, based on a total value of Quikr's fully diluted equity of USD 993m. The valuation of Quikr is based on a discounted cash fow analysis. A number of all-stock transactions have been concluded at an approximate 62 percent premium to the USD 993m valuation, but due to the lack of a signifcant cash element in each of these transactions they are not considered as suffciently robust to be used as basis for the assessment of the fair value of Kinnevik's shareholding.
The fair value of Kinnevik's 61 percent shareholding in Saltside amounts to SEK 196m as at 31 March 2018. The valuation of Saltside is based on a discounted cash fow analysis.
The fair value of Kinnevik's 22 percent shareholding in Bayport amounts to SEK 1,107m as at 31 March 2018, based on a total value of Bayport's fully diluted equity of USD 608m. The valuation of Bayport is based on the valuation applied in a funding round during the third quarter of 2017.
The fair value of Kinnevik's 16 percent shareholding in Betterment amounts to SEK 1,089m as at 31 March 2018, based on a total value of Betterment's fully diluted equity of USD 800m. The valuation of Betterment is based on the valuation applied in a funding round during the third quarter of 2017.
The fair value of Kinnevik's 33 percent shareholding in Bima amounts to SEK 825m as at 31 March 2018, based on a total value of Bima's fully diluted equity of approximately USD 290m. The valuation of Bima is based on the valuation applied in a funding round in the fourth quarter of 2017.
The fair value of Kinnevik's 20 percent shareholding in Babylon amounts to SEK 397m as at 31 March 2018. The valuation of Babylon is based on the valuation applied in a funding round during the second quarter of 2017.
The fair value of Kinnevik's 3 percent shareholding in livongo amounts to SEK 203m as at 31 March 2018. The valuation of Livongo is based on the valuation applied in a funding round during the second quarter of 2018.

notes For the group
The consolidated fnancial statements are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the EU. This report was prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. Information in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting is provided in the notes as well as on other places in the interim report.
From 1 January 2018 Kinnevik apply IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, which replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and introduce requirements for the classifcation and measurement, impairment, derecognition and requirements for general hedge accounting. Classifcation and measurement under IFRS 9 is based on the entity's business model for managing the fnancial asset and the characteristics of the contractual cash fows of the asset. The change does not cause any transition effects for Kinnevik.
The accounting principles and calculation methods applied in this report are the same as those described in the 2017 Annual Report.
Kinnevik has a model for risk management, which aims to identify, control and reduce risks. The identifed risks and how they are managed are reported to the Kinnevik Board of Directors on a quarterly basis.
Kinnevik's fnancing and management of fnancial risks is centralised within Kinnevik's fnance function and is conducted on the basis of a fnance policy established by the Board of Directors. Kinnevik is exposed to fnancial risks mainly in the form of changes in the value of the stock portfolio, changes in currency and interest rates, and fnancing risks. Operational risks are managed within each company with an operating business. Kinnevik is also exposed to political risks since the companies in which Kinnevik has invested have substantial operations in less developed markets in Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa and South East Asia.
For a more detailed description of Kinnevik's risks and uncertainties, as well as risk management, refer to Note 17 in the 2017 Annual report for the Group.
Related party transactions for the period are of the same character as the transactions described in the 2017 Annual Report.
Kinnevik's unlisted holdings are valued using IFRS 13 and the International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation Guidelines, whereby a collective assessment is made to establish the valuation method that is most suitable for each individual holding. Firstly, it is considered whether any recent transactions have been made at arm's length in the relevant company. For new share issues, consideration is taken to if the newly issued shares have preferential rights, such as liquidation preferences to the company's assets senior to earlier issued shares. For companies where no or few recent arm's length transactions have been carried out, a valuation is conducted either by applying relevant multiples to the company's historical sales or profts, or by discounting future expected cash fows. When performing a valuation based on multiples, consideration is given to differences in size, historic growth, proftability and geographic exposure.
The valuation process for Kinnevik's unlisted holdings is led by a valuation team independently from the respective holding's investment manager. Accuracy and reliability of fnancial information used in the valuations is ensured through continuous contacts with the management of each holding and regular reviews of their accounts. Information and opinions on applicable valuation methods are obtained periodically from investment managers and well-renowned investment banks and audit frms. The valuations are discussed with the CFO and CEO after which a proposal is discussed with the Audit Committee and the external auditors. After their scrutiny and potential adjustments, the valuations are approved and included in Kinnevik's accounts.
Below is a summary of the valuation methods applied in the accounts as per 31 March 2018:
| summary |
|---|
| ƒ Sum-of-the-parts method applying varying multiples on each region's last twelve months' net revenues ƒ Peer group includes Zalando, Asos and Boozt ƒ Implied average multiple of 1.2x, corresponding to an aggregate discount of 48% ƒ Fully diluted equity value of EUR 1.5bn, liquidation preferences considered in valuing Kinnevik's shareholding |
| ƒ Method applying a multiple on the company's last twelve months' net revenues ƒ Peer group includes Asos, Wayfair and Maisons du Monde ƒ Multiple of 1.2x, corresponding to a discount of 30% ƒ Fully diluted equity value of EUR 325m, liquidation preferences considered in valuing Kinnevik's shareholding |
| ƒ Method applying a multiple on the company's last twelve months' net revenues ƒ Peer group includes Asos, Wayfair and Maisons du Monde ƒ Multiple of 1.2x, corresponding to a discount of 30% ƒ Fully diluted equity value of EUR 276m, with outstanding warrants treated as debt, liquidation preferences considered in valuing Kinnevik's shareholding |
| ƒ Method applying a discounted cash fow analysis ƒ Fully diluted equity value of USD 993m |
| ƒ Method applying a discounted cash fow analysis |
| ƒ Method applying the valuation applied in a funding round during the third quarter of 2017 ƒ Fully diluted as-converted equity value of USD 608m |
| ƒ Method applying the valuation applied in a funding round during the third quarter of 2017 ƒ Fully diluted equity value of USD 800m |
| ƒ Method applying the valuation applied in a funding round during the fourth quarter of 2017 ƒ Fully diluted equity value of approximately USD 290m |
| ƒ Method applying the valuation applied in a funding round during the second quarter of 2017 |
| ƒ Method applying the valuation applied in a funding round during the second quarter of 2018 |
For the companies in the table above that are valued based on multiples (i.e. Global Fashion Group, Home24 and Westwing), an increase in the multiple by 10% would have increased estimated fair value by SEK 645m. Similarly, a decrease in the multiple by 10% would have decreased estimated fair value by SEK 381m.
When establishing the fair value of other fnancial instruments, methods that in every individual case are assumed to provide the best estimation of fair value have been used. For assets and liabilities maturing within one year, a nominal value adjusted for interest payments and premiums is assumed to provide a good approximation to fair value.
Information is provided in this note per class of fnancial instruments that are valued at fair value in the balance sheet, distributed in the levels stated 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 signifcant input from data that is not observable in the market.

Kinnevik presents some performance measures in the interim report that are not defned by IFRS. Kinnevik believes that these performance measures adds valuable information to the company's investors and the company's management since they enable assessment of Kinnevik's and its portfolio companies' performance and position. Since all companies do not calculate their performance measures in the same manner, these are not always comparable with similar measures used by other companies. Such performance measures shall therefore not be used in replacement of measures defned by IFRS.
Alternative performance measures in Kinnevik's interim report include:
| Active customers | Number of customers having made at least one order within the last 12 months |
|---|---|
| Debt/equity ratio | Interest-bearing liabilities including interest-bearing provisions divided by shareholders' equity |
| Equity ratio | Shareholders' equity including non-controlling interest as percentage of total assets |
| Gross merchandise value, GMV | Total value of all sale transactions during the period, including taxes but excluding ship ping costs |
| Internal rate of return, IRR | The annual rate of return calculated in quarterly intervals on a SEK basis that renders a zero net present value of (i) fair values at the beginning and end of the respective meas urement period, (ii) investments and divestments, and (iii) cash dividends and dividends in kind |
| Investments | All investments in listed and unlisted fnancial assets, including loans to portfolio com panies |
| Leverage | Net debt as a percentage of portfolio value |
| Net asset value, NAV | Net value of all assets on the balance sheet, equal to the shareholders' equity |
| Net cash/(net debt) | Interest bearing receivables (excluding net outstanding receivables relating to portfolio companies), short-term investments and cash and cash equivalents less interest-bearing liabilities including interest-bearing provisions and unpaid investments/divestments |
| Net investments | The net of all investments and divestments in listed and unlisted fnancial assets |
| Net merchandise value, NMV | Gross merchandise value after actual and provisioned returns and rejections |
| Portfolio value | Value of all assets on the balance sheet, less cash and cash equivalents |
| Total shareholder return, TSR | Annualized total return of the Kinnevik B share on the basis of shareholders reinvesting all cash dividends, dividends in kind, and mandatory share redemption proceeds into the Kinnevik B share, before tax, on each respective ex-dividend date. The value of Kinnevik B shares held at the end of the measurement period is divided by the price of the Kinnevik B share at the beginning of the period, and the resulting total return is then recalculated as an annual rate |
