Medivir is a collaborative and agile pharmaceutical company with an R&D focus on infectious diseases and a leading position in hepatitis C. We are passionate and uncompromising in our mission to develop and commercialize innovative pharmaceuticals that improve people's health and quality of life.
The CEO's comments on Q3 2013
"Simeprevir has been approved in Japan and Canada for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C"
At the end of September, simeprevir was approved by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour & Welfare for the treatment of genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. This is the first market approval of simeprevir and we are naturally proud of this achievement. The number of patients with chronic HCV infection in Japan is estimated at 1.5 to 2 million.
In October, the Antiviral Drugs Advisory Committee of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) unanimously voted in favour of market approval for simeprevir in the USA in what is a massive step towards the market introduction of simeprevir in the USA. In November the pharmaceutical authority in Canada, Health Canada, approved simeprevir for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 1. It is the first treatment for hepatitis C to be approved in Canada for once-daily use.
We have developed simeprevir in collaboration with our partner, Janssen. The treatment now approved in Japan involves administering simeprevir in combination with ribavirin and pegylated interferon. Treatment with interferon often causes serious adverse effects and the long-term goal entails the development of a completely interferon-free therapy. In October, Janssen acquired an NS5A replication complex inhibitor from GlaxoSmithKline. This NS5A replication complex inhibitor will be evaluated in combination with simeprevir for interferon-free treatment of genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C patients. A number of other interferon-free clinical studies with simeprevir are currently in progress and we presented good interim results from the COSMOS study, in which simeprevir is used in combination with sofosbuvir, with and without ribavirin.
Other R&D projects
In October, MIV-247 was selected as a candidate drug and has entered pre-clinical development for the treatment of neuropathic pain. The selection is an important milestone for our in-house cathepsin S project.
We also presented positive top-line results from the phase I study with the cathepsin K inhibitor, MIV-711, which is being developed for the treatment of osteoarthritis and other bone-related disorders. These study data are now being compiled and will be used for evaluation purposes in connection with potential future partnerships.
In the hepatitis C area, we decided to stop our research project with our internal NS5A replication complex inhibitors. The decision was taken on commercial grounds and means that we could then focus our hepatitis C research on novel nucleotide-based NS5B polymerase inhibitors.
The past quarter also saw the discontinuation of our collaboration with Daewoong regarding the development of MIV-210 for the treatment of hepatitis B. The decision was based on an evaluation of MIV-210 and its commercial potential in a hepatitis B market in which several pharmaceuticals will be available as generics within the next few years.
Commercial portfolio
Medivir and Ferrer entered into an agreement during the quarter for the commercialisation of Adasuve in the Nordic market. Adasuve is a new treatment for agitation associated with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. This agreement means that we now have 16 prescription pharmaceuticals in our product portfolio, which further strengthens our commercial position in the Nordic region.
Other
On 10 October 2013, Medivir held a Capital Markets Day in Stockholm that included a wide-ranging presentation of Medivir's operations and provided updates on all of the company's significant projects.
I am looking forward with both excitement and confidence to the coming six months – a period in which simeprevir will be launched in Japan and, hopefully, also approved for sale in other markets.

Significant events during Q3 2013
Medivir focused its strategy for in-house hepatitis C projects
Medivir took a strategic decision to focus its in-house research and development resources in the hepatitis C area on the development of novel NS5B nucleotide-based polymerase inhibitors, or "nucleotides" as they are known. There continues to be a need for new, effective – and safe – nucleotides, which have specific characteristics that make them ideally suited for combination with other antiviral HCV pharmaceuticals, including a high barrier to resistance development and the fact that they are effective against all HCV genotypes. This was the background against which Medivir decided to wind up the NS5A replication complex inhibitor project and focus on the development of nucleotide-based polymerase inhibitors.
Medivir discontinued its collaboration with Daewoong Pharmaceutical regarding the development of MIV-210
Under the terms of our collaboration agreement, Daewoong has been responsible for the R&D work with MIV-210, which has a demonstrably competitive antiviral activity. However, like other drugs of this class, it does not completely eradicate the hepatitis B virus (HBV) during treatment. The current standard treatments for hepatitis B will be available as generics within a few years and any product developed must, if it is to be commercially viable, completely eradicate the virus, i.e. cure the patient. To achieve this, MIV-210 would have to be administered in combination with other pharmaceuticals with different, new mechanisms of action, which Medivir does not intend to develop.
Medivir and Ferrer entered into a Nordic agreement for the commercialisation of a new treatment for agitation associated with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder
Medivir obtained exclusive rights to market, sell and distribute ADASUVE in the Nordic market. ADASUVE is a hand-held inhaler designed to deliver the drug, loxapine, with the inhaled air into the lungs, where it has a rapid systemic effect. Under the terms of the agreement, Medivir becomes the exclusive supplier in the Nordic region of this new therapy for the treatment of mild to moderate agitation of patients with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.
ADASUVE meets a substantial medical need through the novel technology used to administer the drug. Medivir already markets Lithionit for the treatment of bipolar disorder and the addition of ADASUVE expands our offering for psychiatrists and their patients.
Simeprevir approved in Japan for the treatment of hepatitis C
In September, the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour & Welfare announced that simeprevir had been approved for the treatment of genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C virus infection. Simeprevir was approved for a broad patient population, both for patients who had not previously been treated with interferon and/or ribavirin and for patients who had been treated but had not responded to previous treatment. The approval triggered a milestone payment of EUR 5 million to Medivir from Janssen.
Significant events after the end of the financial period
Simeprevir will be evaluated in combination with an NS5A replication complex inhibitor acquired by Janssen
In October, Medivir's partner, Janssen, acquired an NS5A replication complex inhibitor from GSK (JNJ-56914845), which will be evaluated in combination with simeprevir for interferon-free treatment of genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C patients.
Results presented from a phase I study with MIV-711 for the treatment of osteoarthritis and other bone-related disorders
The results of the phase I study with the cathepsin K inhibitor, MIV-711, confirmed that MIV-711 is safe and well tolerated at doses where it effectively decreases cartilage degradation and bone resorption, as suggested by biomarker data. Both these phenomena are important characteristics of the development of osteoarthritis. The results support the continued development of MIV-711 and will form the basis for ongoing work on identifying potential partners for future development work.
In the study, 50-200 mg of MIV-711 was administered once daily for seven days to healthy men and women, and 100 mg for 28 days to healthy post-menopausal women. The data show that serum levels of CTX-I, a biomarker for bone resorption, were suppressed by up to 55 per cent and that urinary excretion of the cartilage degradation marker CTX-II, was reduced by up to 72 per cent. All dose levels reported similar drug-related adverse effects and were comparable to placebo.
MIV-247 selected as a candidate drug and enters pre-clinical development for the treatment of neuropathic pain
MIV-247, a potent and highly selective inhibitor of cathepsin S, was selected as a candidate drug (CD) for the treatment of neuropathic pain. MIV-247 will now enter pre-clinical development and will undergo the safety studies required before it can be tested on human subjects in clinical trials.
Cathepsin S is an enzyme that is important for the pathology of neuropathic pain through its action in releasing fractalkine (a pro-inflammatory protein) in areas of the spinal cord important for pain sensation. Medivir's cathepsin S inhibitors, including MIV-247, have shown good efficacy in experimental models of neuropathic pain, with no evidence of tolerance induction.
Approximately 25 million patients across the US, Europe and Japan suffer from neuropathic pain, which includes chronic diabetic neuropathy, post-herpetic neuralgia (nerve pain) and neuropathic lowback pain. Currently marketed drugs have limited efficacy and poor side-effect profiles. Patients with neuropathic pain are therefore in great need of new and efficacious therapies that can deliver sustainable pain relief with improved tolerance and adverse event profiles.
Data presented from two phase III studies with Simeprevir in hepatitis C subpopulations – HCV/HIV co-infected and HCV genotype 4 infected patients
Data from two phase III studies were presented at the European AIDS conference, EACS, held between 16 and 19 October in Brussels. The studies evaluated simeprevir in genotype 1 hepatitis C and HIV-1 co-infected patients, and in genotype 4 chronic hepatitis C-infected patients.
HCV/HIV co-infected patients
This phase III, open-label trial evaluated the safety and efficacy of simeprevir (150 mg QD) with peginterferon and ribavirin (PR) for 12 weeks (n=106). Treatment-naïve patients and prior relapsers (without cirrhosis) received response-guided therapy (RGT) with PR for up to 24 or 48 weeks. All other patients received PR for up to 48 weeks.
High SVR12 rates (sustained virologic response 12 weeks after completion of treatment) were observed in the study, regardless of prior HCV treatment response, with 79% in HCV treatment-naïve patients, 87% in prior relapsers, 70% in partial responders and 57% in null responders achieving SVR12.
HCV genotype 4 patients – interim results
This study enrolled 107 patients with chronic HCV genotype 4 infection. The patients were treated with simeprevir in combination with peginterferon and ribavirin (PR) for 12 weeks. Treatment-naïve patients and prior relapsers received response-guided therapy (RGT) with PR up to 24 or 48 weeks. Prior partial responders and prior null responders received PR up to 48 weeks. At the time of this interim analysis, only data from patients eligible to shorten therapy and who had reached study visits 4 and 12 weeks after completion of treatment were included. In these patients, SVR4 rates of 89 and 91% (n=20) and SVR12 of 67 and 100% (n=9) were achieved in relapsers and naïve patients respectively. Overall, simeprevir was well tolerated and most adverse effects were grade 1 or 2.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Advisory Committee recommended simeprevir for market approval
In October, the Antiviral Drugs Advisory Committee of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) voted 19 to 0 to recommend approval of simeprevir. The recommendation is in respect of once daily doses of 150 mg of simeprevir in combination with pegylated interferon and ribavirin for the treatment of genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C in adult patients with compensated liver disease, including cirrhosis.
Interim results presented from the COSMOS study with simeprevir and sofosbuvir in difficultto-cure patients
New interim data from the COSMOS study were presented in a late-breaking oral session at the Annual Meeting of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) held between 1 and 5 November. COSMOS is a randomised, open-label phase IIa study investigating the safety and efficacy of simeprevir in combination with sofosbuvir, with and without ribavirin, for either 12 or 24 weeks.
- Cohort 1 enrolled HCV genotype 1 patients who were prior null responders to treatment with interferon and ribavirin with METAVIR F0-F2 scores (cohort 1, n=80). Sustained virologic response 12 weeks after the end of treatment (SVR12) was achieved in 93 per cent of genotype 1 null responders with METAVIR F0-F2 scores that were treated with simeprevir and sofosbuvir for either 12 or 24 weeks.
- Cohort 2 enrolled treatment-naïve patients and null responders with METAVIR F3-F4 scores (cohort 2, n=87). The interim analysis of cohort 2 showed that SVR4 was achieved in 100 per cent of both the treatment-naïve patients and the null responders with METAVIR F3-F4 scores after 12 weeks of treatment with simeprevir and sofosbuvir.
The METAVIR score is used to quantify the degree of inflammation and fibrosis/cirrhosis of the liver on a four-point scale. All patients who completed treatment were HCV RNA undetectable at end of treatment and there were no viral breakthroughs.

**SVR4 data were only available for 12-week arms at time of interim analysis cut-off.
The interim results showed no benefit from adding ribavirin to simeprevir and sofosbuvir in these difficult-to-treat groups of HCV patients, and that 12 weeks treatment may confer similar clinical benefits to 24 weeks treatment. The combination treatment with simeprevir and sofosbuvir was generally safe and well tolerated.
Simeprevir approved in Canada as a new treatment for hepatitis C
In November the pharmaceutical authority in Canada, Health Canada, announced that simeprevir has been approved for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 1. The approval is for adults with compensated liver disease (including cirrhosis) who are treatment-naïve or who have failed previous interferon therapy with ribavirin. Simeprevir received priority review status by the pharmaceutical authority in Canada. Approximately 250,000 Canadians are living with HCV, with thousands of new cases diagnosed each year. Simeprevir is the first treatment for hepatitis C to be approved in Canada for once-daily use.
Project portfolio
Medivir is a research-based pharmaceutical company. The research portfolio currently comprises four projects that focus on the development of antiviral pharmaceuticals. We also conduct research projects in other disease areas, such as skeletal disorders and neuropathic pain. The projects are based on Medivir's expertise in the polymerase and protease areas.
Medivir will also continue to identify partners and to enter into future partnership agreements for product development, but it intends to retain commercial rights for its projects in the Nordic region. Medivir also seeks, in tandem with our in-house research projects, to identify potential new opportunities for development through acquisitions or licensing. The company's project portfolio is summarised in the chart below. Early research projects are on-going but are not included here.

Consolidated results and financial position*
Revenues and results, 1 July-30 September 2013
Net turnover totalled SEK 80.2 million (SEK 36.6 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 43.6 million. Non-recurrent payments from outlicensing and partnership agreements totalled SEK 43.6 million and referred to the approval of simeprevir by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour & Welfare (EUR 5 m). Pharmaceutical sales increased by SEK 1.2 million.
The gross profit was SEK 64.1 million (SEK 22.9 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 41.2 million and equating to a gross margin of 80% (63%). The gross margin for the period, excluding nonrecurrent payments, amounted to 56% (63%). The gross margin, excluding non-recurrent payments, fell by SEK 2.4 million, primarily due to a reclassification of operating costs after the divestment of the parallel imports operations.
The total operating costs were SEK -74.2 million (SEK -71.5 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 2.7 million. Selling expenses increased by SEK 7.5 million, while administrative expenses fell by SEK 4.2 million, primarily due to the operating cost reclassification. Research and development costs decreased by SEK 0.2 million, while other operating income/expenses increased by SEK 0.4 million.
The operating profit/loss totalled SEK -10.1 million (SEK -48.6 m), corresponding to a positive change of SEK 38.5 million. The positive change was primarily attributable to the higher gross profit/loss that resulted from the period's non-recurrent payment.
Net financial items totalled SEK 0.5 million (SEK -5.1 m). Net financial items for the corresponding period last year included a negative item in respect of the revaluation of shares.
Revenues and results, 1 January-30 September 2013
Net turnover totalled SEK 299.0 million (SEK 121.8 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 177.2 million. Non-recurrent payments from outlicensing and partnership agreements totalled SEK 170.5 million and referred both to the approval and New Drug Application for simeprevir filed with the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour & Welfare (EUR 10 m) and to the New Drug Application filed with the FDA, the USA Food and Drug Administration (EUR 10 m). Pharmaceutical sales increased by SEK 7.9 million, primarily as a result of an adjustment in the price of Mollipect. The most important products in terms of sales were Mollipect, Lithionit and Citodon.
The gross profit was SEK 247.9 million (SEK 77.0 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 170.9 million and equating to a gross margin of 83% (63%). The increase in the gross profit was mainly attributable to higher non-recurrent payments. The gross margin for the period, excluding nonrecurrent payments, was 60% (63%) and fell by SEK 0.4 million, primarily due to the reclassification of operating costs.
The total operating costs were SEK -243.3 million (SEK -224.6 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 18.7 million. Selling expenses increased by SEK 14.7 million, while administrative expenses fell by SEK 11.6 million, primarily due to the reclassification between types of cost after the divestment of the parallel imports operations. Research and development costs increased by SEK 15.6 million, primarily as a result of an increase of SEK 8.5 million in royalty costs and a write-down of SEK 6.7 million in respect of parts of the R&D assets acquired from Novadex. Other operating income/expenses remained unchanged.
The operating profit/loss totalled SEK 4.6 million (SEK -147.6 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 152.2 million. The positive change was primarily due to the higher gross profit/loss that resulted from the period's non-recurrent payments.
Net financial items totalled SEK 0.3 million (SEK -4.5 m). Net financial items for the corresponding period last year included a negative item in respect of the revaluation of shares.
The tax cost for the period amounted to SEK -8.2 million (SEK -11.4 m) and represents, in its entirety, a decrease in the deferred tax asset arising from the utilisation of capitalised tax loss carry forwards during the period.
The profit/loss for the period from the remaining Group operations totalled SEK -3.3 million (SEK -163.5 m). Basic and diluted earnings per share from the remaining operations amounted to SEK -0.11 (SEK -5.23).

Cash flow from investing activities totalled SEK 114.3 million (SEK -4.4 m) and referred primarily to the sale of the subsidiary company, Cross Pharma. Other changes in investing activities comprised investments in research equipment totalling SEK 0.6 million (SEK 7.8 m).
Cash flow from financing activities totalled SEK -40.8 million (SEK -85.2 m) and primarily comprised the amortisation of loans and bank overdrafts.

Employees
Medivir had 112 (114) employees at the period end, 58% (58%) of whom were women.
Royalty undertakings
A significant percentage of Medivir's research and development project work has been carried out exclusively in-house and Medivir is consequently entitled to all revenues in respect of these inventions. A smaller percentage of Medivir's projects originate from Swedish universities. Medivir is consequently entitled to the revenues generated by these projects but obliged to pay royalties on the same. In addition, some of Medivir's projects were previously outlicensed to third parties but have now reverted to Medivir, and Medivir has undertaken to pay royalties to the former licensees. The combined royalty costs during the period were SEK 8.5 million (SEK 0.0 m) and comprised royalties payable to university consortia.
The Parent Company in brief, 1 January-30 September 2013
Medivir AB (publ.), corporate ID no. 556238-4361, is the Parent Company of the group. Its operations consist of research and development, marketing and sales, and administrative and company management functions.
The Parent Company's net turnover totalled SEK 176.4 million (SEK 1.6 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 174.8 million resulting primarily from higher non-recurrent payments. Non-recurrent payments related to both the approval and New Drug Application for simeprevir filed with the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour & Welfare (EUR 10 m) and the New Drug Application filed with the FDA in the USA (EUR 10 m).
The gross profit totalled SEK 169.9 million (SEK 1.5 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 168.4 million.
The operating costs totalled SEK -205.2 million (SEK -183.2 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 22.0 million. Research and development costs increased by SEK 13.6 million, primarily as a result of an increase of SEK 6.4 million in royalty costs and a write-down of SEK 6.7 million in respect of certain elements of the R&D operations acquired from Novadex. Selling expenses increased by SEK 10.8 million while administrative expenses increased by SEK 2.1 million after the sale of the parallel import operations.
Other operating income/expenses totalled SEK 12.5 million (SEK 8.0 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 4.5 million and primarily comprising services to Group companies.
The operating profit/loss was SEK -35.3 million (SEK -181.7 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 146.4 million. The positive change is mainly due to the higher gross profit resulting from the period's non-recurrent payments.
Net financial items totalled SEK 122.5 million (SEK 3.9 m), corresponding to an increase of SEK 118.6 million. Net financial items include dividends totalling SEK 120.0 million received from the BioPhausia AB subsidiary company.
The net profit/loss for the period was SEK 87.2 million (SEK -177.8 m).
The cash flow from operating activities totalled SEK -72.9 million (SEK -158.4 m), with changes in working capital accounting for SEK -54.9 million (SEK 5.2 m) of this total. The change in working capital primarily comprised an increase in accounts receivable.

Outlook
Medivir is a research-based pharmaceutical company whose focus is on infectious diseases. Its goal is to become a high-growth, profitable pharmaceutical company within the next few years. Medivir is working resolutely and strategically to generate the best possible prospects for developing the company quickly while also balancing risks. The company has a solid financial position.
Medivir has several attractive projects in the development phase, of which simeprevir is the most advanced. New drug applications for simeprevir have been filed in Japan and the USA during the first quarter and in Europe during the second quarter. Market approval was received in Japan in September 2013 and the Antiviral Drugs Advisory Committee of the American Food and Drug Administration, FDA, voted by 19 to 0 to approve simeprevir in October. These factors, coupled with Medivir's ambition to identify new business opportunities in the Nordic region, form the basis of our ongoing efforts to develop Medivir into a profitable company.

Divested operations
On 25 June, Medivir announced the sale of its parallel imports operations, Cross Pharma AB, including the Polish subsidiary company, Prodlekpol. The transaction of 30 June resulted in a capital loss of SEK 46.3 million. The consolidated value of Cross Pharma was SEK 57.3 million and primarily comprised goodwill and trademarks. The capital loss also includes transaction costs and exchange rate profits/losses totalling SEK 8.8 million. Payment for the shares totalled SEK 19.7 million.
During the third quarter, receivables from the purchaser, Unimedic, totalling SEK 119.7 million were paid. The balance of receivables due from Unimedic now totals SEK 15.0 million, which sum will fall due for stepwise payment during a 36 month period.
The sale has been reported separately as a divested operation in the Income Statement in accordance with IFRS 5. A divested operation is reported separately from remaining operations in the Income Statement with retroactive effect for previous periods. Parallel Imports are reported as a divested operation below.

Seasonal variations
Medivir's sales and operating profit/loss are, to some extent, dependent on external seasonal variations over which the company has no control. Sales of medications to treat respiratory infections are affected by the influenza and common cold season's intensity and timing, primarily in the first and fourth quarters. This risk is, however, mitigated by the fact that Medivir has a number of other products in other therapeutic areas.
Transactions with related parties
Transactions with related parties are on an arm's length basis. There are agreements between companies owned by senior key employees and M edivir, conferring entitlement to royalties on products that the company may develop based on patented inventions that the company has purchased from the parties in question. Payments to these parties of SEK 3.4 million (SEK 0.0 m) occurred during the period. Other services were purchased from related parties for a total of SEK 0.0 million (SEK 0.4 m).
Fair value measurement of financial assets and liabilities
IFRS 13 requires that financial instruments be classified in a 3-level hierarchy on the basis of the information used to determine their fair value. Level 1 inputs are when fair value is measured on the basis of quoted prices in active markets for identical financial assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are when fair value is measured on the basis of observable information other than quoted market prices included within level 1. Level 3 inputs are when the fair value is measured using valuation models in which significant inputs are based on unobservable data.
The Group has level 1 short-term investments. The short-term investments, in the form of fixed income funds, are managed as a group of financial assets and are reported at fair value in the Income Statement. The Group has saleable financial assets at level 3 and which are not adjudged to have any value.
Other financial assets and liabilities
The fair value of financial instruments such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other noninterest-bearing financial assets and liabilities which are reported at the accrued acquisition value less any depreciation, is adjudged to correspond to the reported value, due to their short anticipated terms.
Share-related incentive plans
The intention of share-related incentive plans is to promote the company's long-term interests by motivating and rewarding the company's senior executives and other members of staff. Medivir currently has one active share-related incentive plan.
Share saving plan, 2013 (LTI 2013)
The Share saving plan, 2013 (LTI 2013) is a long-term, performance-based share-related incentive programme that was approved at the Annual General Meeting held on 6 May 2013. The Share saving plan has been offered to all permanent employees of Medivir AB, on equal terms for the CEO, other senior executives, and other employees. Participation in LTI 2013 is contingent upon the employee making a personal investment and buying shares in Medivir at the market rate – so-called savings shares. The participant may, within the framework of LTI 2013 and over the course of one year, invest a sum corresponding to no more than one twelfth of their fixed annual basic salary before tax, provided that the participant stays with the company for three years. Participants receive one matching share warrant and three performance-based share warrants for every Savings share in which they invest. The performance-based share warrants are based on the strategic development of Medivir's research and product portfolio and earnings per share during the period from 2013 to 2015. 73 per cent of all permanent employees have opted to participate in the plan, including the CEO, who has
invested SEK 0.3 million (4, 341 shares), and other senior executives, who have invested SEK 0.6 million (9, 260 shares).
LTI 2013 will be reported in accordance with IFRS 2 – Share-based payment. The maximum number of class B shares in Medivir that may be disbursed in accordance with the plan, including those additional shares that may be obtained through the exercise of warrants, is 404,374 class B shares corresponding to approximately 1.28 per cent of the total number of shares and approximately 1.08 per cent of the total number of votes in Medivir. The maximum amount by which the share capital can increase is SEK 2.0 million. SEK 1.2 million in costs in connection with LTI 2013, including the cost of social security contributions, has, in accordance with certain assumptions such as share price performance, participation, and staff turnover, been charged to the profit/loss. The right of disposal must exist with regard to warrants to subscribe and the shares that will be disbursed through the exercise of the warrants to subscribe in order to enable the shares to be disbursed to the participants at the end of the programme. Warrants to subscribe are also issued in order to hedge the cash flow costs of the programme for the Group, such as social security costs, that arise in connection with LTI 2013.
Stock option plan, 2010-2013
The staff stock option plan 2010-2013 was adopted at the 2010 Annual General Meeting. The plan comprised all permanent employees of Medivir AB. The term of the plan was from 30 April 2010 to 31 May 2013. The plan was forfeited during the second quarter of 2013 without any options having been exercised during the term of the plan. Detailed information on the stock option plan 2010-2013, is presented in Medivir's 2012 Annual Report.
Significant risks and uncertainty factors
An effective risk assessment reconciles Medivir's business opportunities and results with the requirements of shareholders and other stakeholders for stable, long-term value growth and control. The process of research and pharmaceutical development, all the way up to approved registration, is both high risk and capital-intensive. The majority of projects initiated will never achieve market registration. If competing products take market shares, or competing research projects achieve better efficacy and reach the market more quickly, the future value of Medivir's product and project portfolio may be lower than expected. Medivir's ability to produce new CDs (candidate drugs), to enter into partnerships for its projects, to successfully develop its projects to market launch and continued sale, and to secure funding for its operations, are decisive in terms of the company's future.
Medivir is exposed to the following main risk categories:
- Exogenous risks such as regulatory approval, competition, price changes, external seasonality and patent protection;
- Operating risks such as integration risk, production risk, and a reliance on key employees and partnerships;
- Financial risks such as liquidity, interest, currency and credit risk.
No significant changes to the risks and uncertainty factors occurred during the period. A more detailed description of exposure to risk, and of the ways in which Medivir manages it, is provided in the 2012 Annual Report.

Maris Hartmanis President & CEO
Auditors' review of summary interim financial information (Interim Report) prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and section 9 of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.
Introduction
We have reviewed this interim report for the period 1 January to 30 September 2013 for Medivir AB (publ.). The Board of Directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this Interim Report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this Interim Report based on our review.
Focus and scope of the review
We conducted our review in accordance with the Swedish Standard on Review Engagements (SÖG) 2410, Review of Interim Report 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 significantly lesser scope than those of an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. The conclusion expressed on the basis of a review does not, therefore, provide the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed on the basis of an audit.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Interim Report has not, in all material respects, been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act for the Group, and with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act for the Parent Company.
