Comments from CEO Peter Wågström

NCC's profit after financial items amounted to SEK 808 M (881) for the third quarter and SEK 1,094 M (1,217) for the first nine months of the year. This disappointing profit for the third quarter was attributable to impairment losses on projects in the Norwegian construction operations and lower sales in our industrial operations. However, we still have the right prerequisites to end the year on a strong note. Our order book is well-filled and many of our housing projects will be recognized in profit in the fourth quarter.

NORWAY DRAWING DOWN THE CONSTRUCTION OPERATIONS

The construction operations in Sweden, Denmark and Finland reported improved operating profit and margins, while the Norwegian operations posted a loss for the third quarter. Actions taken earlier in Norway have proven inadequate, and we are now taking further measures with the launch of the new Nordic organization.

LOWER SALES IN THE INDUSTRIAL OPERATIONS

Sales of stone materials and asphalt were lower than in the year-earlier period, partly due to the closure of a crushing plant in Sweden. Orders received increased year-on-year. Changes to the product mix and increased expenses resulted in a lower margin in the stone materials operations.

POSTPONEMENT OF PROFIT RECOGNITION IN THE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT BUSINESS

Earnings from our housing development business were lower than expected after the completion and profit recognition of several housing units were postponed until the fourth quarter. As a result, we now have a record number of housing units – nearly 3,000 – to complete during the final quarter of the year. Housing sales were favorable during the quarter and we are continuing to start new housing projects. We now have more than 9,000 housing units under construction.

HIGHER EARNINGS IN THE PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT BUSINESS

The project Lysakers Polaris was handed over and recognized in profit during the quarter, generating healthy profitability. We also reported favorable leasing for the quarter and have a high leasing rate in the project portfolio. The property development business focus is on starting additional projects.

SPIN-OFF OF NCC HOUSING

In September, the Board tasked the management with analyzing the conditions for creating an independent housing development company based on the NCC Housing business area and distributing it to NCC's shareholders under the Lex Asea rules.

PROFIT/LOSS AFTER FINANCIAL ITEMS, SEK M

This analysis is now complete and our assessment is that a division of NCC would create greater possibilities to capitalize on the growth opportunities identified by NCC in both the housing market and the construction market. The Board is of the opinion that a division of NCC would create shareholder value and has decided to begin preparing for a distribution of NCC Housing under the Lex Asea rules. The goal is to present further information during our Capital Markets Day on November 26.

NEW STRATEGY AS OF 2016

NCC's new strategy will be launched at year-end and involves, among other items, NCC focusing on profitable growth, with particular emphasis on construction and civil engineering in such areas as infrastructure and refurbishment. Shared work methods, one NCC and a sustainability focus are other cornerstones of the new strategy. Following our previously announced reorganization, NCC will gain a specialized Nordic organization with a strong local presence. Specialization will give us more scope to develop and to offer common concepts and solutions to our customers in all our markets.

Group performance

MOST RECENT QUARTER, JULY – SEPTEMBER 2015

ORDERS RECEIVED AND ORDER BACKLOG

Orders received amounted to SEK 13,005 M (12,383). Higher orders received were reported for NCC Construction Finland's building operations, as well as NCC Construction Norway's civil engineering operations. NCC Roads also reported higher orders received, mainly in paving and road services. NCC Housing started construction on more housing units in Germany, Sweden and Finland. NCC Construction Sweden reported lower orders received in its building and housing operations. NCC Construction Denmark's housing operations declined. Changes in exchange rates reduced orders received by SEK 79 M compared with the year-earlier period. The Group's order backlog amounted to SEK 57,074 M. Changes in exchange rates reduced the order backlog by SEK 367 M during the quarter.

NET SALES

Net sales totaled SEK 14,724 M (14,796). Higher sales in NCC Construction Sweden, NCC Construction Denmark and NCC Property Development offset the lower sales in the other business areas to a certain degree. Sales in NCC Construction Finland's housing operations declined, while NCC Construction Norway mainly reported lower net sales in its building operations. NCC Roads reported lower net sales in all operational categories. Changes in exchange rates reduced sales by SEK 115 M year-on-year.

OPERATING PROFIT

NCC's operating profit totaled SEK 900 M (989). This decrease was primarily attributable to project adjustments in a negative amount of SEK 143 M in NCC Construction Norway. NCC's other Construction units increased their earnings. While NCC Housing continued to perform favorably, its sales to investors declined. NCC Roads' stone materials and asphalt operations posted lower earnings in Denmark and Finland, respectively. NCC Property Development reported higher earnings.

CASH FLOW

Cash flow from operating activities totaled SEK 1,157 M (neg: 447). This improvement was mainly attributable to positive cash flow from other working capital as a result of a healthy trend in project liquidity. Cash flow from sales of property projects was favorable during the quarter, while investments were slightly lower than in the year-earlier period. Although the expansion of housing projects continued, the increase in investments is smaller compared with the year-earlier period.

SEASONAL EFFECTS

NCC Roads' operations and certain operations in NCC's Construction units are impacted by seasonal variations due to cold weather. The first quarter is normally weaker than the rest of the year.

ORDER BACKLOG

NET INDEBTEDNESS

At September 30, net indebtedness amounted to SEK 9,130 M (9,823); refer also to Note 5 Specification of net indebtedness. The average maturity period for interestbearing liabilities, excluding loans in Finnish housing companies and Swedish tenant-owner associations, as well as pension debt according to IAS 19, was 30 months (29) at the end of the quarter. NCC's unutilized committed lines of credit at the end of the quarter amounted to SEK 4.8 billion (4.0), with an average remaining maturity of 41 months (26).

INTERIM PERIOD, JANUARY – SEPTEMBER 2015

ORDERS RECEIVED AND ORDER BACKLOG

Orders received amounted to SEK 42,127 M (42,910). NCC Roads, NCC Construction Finland and, to a certain extent, NCC Housing offset the lower orders received reported in the other business areas. Changes in exchange rates had a positive year-on-year impact of SEK 176 M on orders received. The order backlog increased to SEK 57,074 M at the end of the period. Changes in exchange rates reduced the order backlog by SEK 785 M.

NET SALES

Net sales totaled SEK 40,084 M (38,106). This improvement was mainly due to higher sales in NCC Construction Sweden in all operational categories. NCC Construction Denmark and NCC Housing also posted higher net sales. Changes in exchange rates had a positive year-on-year impact of SEK 154 M on sales.

OPERATING PROFIT

NCC's operating profit amounted to SEK 1,389 M (1,503). This decrease was primarily attributable to project adjustments in NCC Construction Norway of SEK 143 M. NCC's other Construction units increased their earnings. NCC Roads reported a decline in sales in its stone materials and asphalt operations due to lower volumes and slightly weaker margins in the third quarter.

NCC Housing's earnings were charged with the impairment of a project in Norway. NCC Property Development reported improved earnings.

NET FINANCIAL ITEMS

Net financial items amounted to an expense of SEK 295 M (expense: 286). Higher net indebtedness and a year-onyear increase in interest rates in Russia in the first nine months had a negative impact on net financial items. Lower credit margins had a positive impact on net financial items.

CASH FLOW

Cash flow from operating activities improved during the period compared with the year-earlier period as a result of a positive cash flow from other working capital due to a healthy trend in project liquidity. Cash flow from the sale of housing units is in line with the year-earlier period, while investments decreased. The continued decline in cash flow from sales during the period is offset by a reduction in investments in property projects. Adjustments for non-cash items essentially included depreciation/amortization and exchange-rate differences.

NET INDEBTEDNESS

At September 30, net indebtedness amounted to SEK 9,130 M (9,823); refer also to Note 5, Specification of net indebtedness.

MARKET PERFORMANCE

Demand for stone materials and asphalt is favorable. In Norway and Russia, demand for asphalt declined slightly in the third quarter. Demand for road services is stable, but the market is characterized by intense competition.

MOST RECENT QUARTER, JULY – SEPTEMBER 2015

NET SALES

Sales amounted to SEK 3,805 M (4,044). Asphalt volumes declined in Norway due to a smaller number of major central government and municipal contracts in Oslo. Sales of stone materials decreased as a result of the closure of a crushing plant in Stockholm and changes to the product mix in Denmark. Sales of road services declined due to fewer contracts in Norway and Finland, as well as a lower rate of activity in Denmark.

OPERATING PROFIT

Operating profit amounted to SEK 363 M (407). Earnings in the asphalt operations declined as a result of lower paving volumes and slightly weaker margins due to lower price levels and a certain cost increase. Earnings in the stone materials operations declined, mainly due to a higher percentage of low-refinement products and higher costs in parts of the Danish operations. Earnings for the road services operations were in line with the year-earlier period.

CAPITAL EMPLOYED

Capital employed increased marginally during the quarter to SEK 4.3 billion.

INTERIM PERIOD, JANUARY – SEPTEMBER 2015

NET SALES

Sales amounted to SEK 8,327 M (8,533). Sales of stone materials and asphalt were unchanged, while sales of road services declined as a result of fewer road services contracts.

OPERATING PROFIT

Operating profit amounted to SEK 223 M (273). Earnings from asphalt and stone materials declined in the third quarter. Earnings in road services were negative, albeit to a slightly lesser degree than in the year-earlier period.

CAPITAL EMPLOYED

Capital employed rose SEK 0.7 billion compared with yearend and totaled SEK 4.3 billion.

MARKET PERFORMANCE

In Sweden and Germany, demand was healthy with rising prices. Demand was weaker in Finland, but small and affordable housing units are in demand in the investor market and among private customers. There were major local variations in Norway. Although demand is favorable in St. Petersburg, purchasing decisions take longer. Demand for housing remains favorable in Copenhagen.

MOST RECENT QUARTER, JULY – SEPTEMBER 2015

HOUSING SALES AND CONSTRUCTION STARTS

A total of 896 (1,006) housing units were sold to private customers, and 506 (266) to the investor market. Housing sales to private customers declined in St. Petersburg, Sweden and Denmark as a result of the fact that NCC has fewer housing units for sale. In Finland and Germany, sales to private customers and the investor market increased. Most construction starts for private customers occurred in Germany, Sweden and Finland. Construction started on a total of 883 (884) housing units for private customers and 506 (266) housing units for the investor market. Construction starts for the investor market mainly occurred in Finland and Germany, where demand is high.

NET SALES

Net sales declined slightly year-on-year and totaled SEK 2,128 M (2,258). A higher number of housing units for private customers were completed and recognized in profit, while the number of housing units for the investor market recognized in profit declined, particularly in Germany. During the quarter, a total of 589 (547) housing units for private customers and 453 (507) housing units for the investor market were recognized in profit. The average price per housing unit was in line with the year-earlier period.

OPERATING PROFIT

Earnings amounted to SEK 183 M (243). Earnings declined year-on-year due to lower earnings from investor transactions in Germany, which are partly offset by increased sales to private customers and sales of land.

CAPITAL EMPLOYED

Capital employed amounted to SEK 11.3 billion, which was in line with the year-earlier period.

INTERIM PERIOD, JANUARY – SEPTEMBER 2015

HOUSING SALES AND CONSTRUCTION STARTS

A total of 3,188 (3,096) housing units were sold to private customers and 828 (698) to the investor market. Housing sales to private customers increased in Sweden, Norway and Germany. Sales in Finland and the Baltic countries were in line with the year-earlier period, while sales in Denmark and St. Petersburg declined. During the period, construction started on a total of 2,548 (3,237) housing units for private customers and 959 (671) housing units for the investor market.

NET SALES

Net sales increased year-on-year due to a higher average price per unit for housing units handed over and recognized in profit for private customers, as well as higher sales of land. During the period, 1,781 (1,933) housing units for private customers and 781 (685) housing units for the investor market were recognized in profit.

OPERATING PROFIT

Earnings amounted to SEK 370 M (455). This decrease compared with the year-earlier period was attributable to lower earnings from sales to investors.

CAPITAL EMPLOYED

Capital employed totaled SEK 11.3 billion, up SEK 0.7 billion compared with year-end, due to a higher number of housing units in production.

NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

In the table below, disclosures are made concerning how fair value has been determined for the financial instruments that are continuously measured at fair value in NCC's balance sheet. When determining fair value, financial instruments have been divided into the following three levels. No transfers have been made between the levels during the period.

In level 1, measurement is in accordance with prices quoted on an active market for the same instruments.

Derivatives in level 2 comprise currency-forward contracts, cross-currency swaps and interest-rate swaps used for hedging purposes. Fair-value measurement for currencyforward contracts and cross-currency swaps is based on published forward rates in an active market. The measurement of interest-rate swaps is based on forward interest rates prepared based on observable yield curves. NCC has no financial instruments in level 3.

Notes to the Parent Company's income statement and balance sheet

NOTE 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Parent Company has prepared its interim report pursuant to the Swedish Annual Accounts Act (1995:1554) and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities.

The interim report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with the same accounting policies and methods of calculation as the 2014 Annual Report (Note 1, pages 70-76).

The companies related to the Parent Company are the Nordstjernan Group, the Axel Johnson Group, the FastPartner Group, NCC's subsidiaries, as well as associated companies and joint ventures. The Parent Company's related-party transactions were of a production character. During the July-September quarter, relatedcompany sales amounted to SEK 10 M (2) and purchases to SEK 113 M (86).

Information to shareholders

REPURCHASE OF SHARES

NCC AB holds 568,054 Series B treasury shares to meet its obligations pursuant to long-term incentive programs.

Other significant events

MAJOR ORDERS IN THE QUARTER

NCC signed a life cycle agreement valued at SEK 620 M with Mäntsälä Municipality. The 20-year agreement encompasses the construction and maintenance of Riihenmäki School and Hyökännummi School and Daycare.

MAJOR FRAMEWORK/PARTNERING AGREEMENTS IN THE QUARTER

Over the next six years, NCC and Nacka Municipality will cooperate to develop and build a total of 14 schools, preschools and sports halls in the expansive municipality. The total potential order value is close to SEK 2 billion over six years, with a possible extension to a total of nine years.

MAJOR PROPERTY SALES IN THE QUARTER

NCC sold a housing project in Dortmund, Germany, to a German pension fund for approximately SEK 140 M. The project comprises a planned rental apartment building containing 72 rental units. The project will be completed, handed over and recognized as profit in the NCC Housing business area in the fourth quarter of 2016.

NCC sold a housing project in Lüneburg, Germany, to a German investor for approximately SEK 200 M. The project will be completed, handed over and recognized as profit in the NCC Housing business area in the third quarter of 2017.

ASPHALT CASE IN NORWAY

In July, the Norwegian Court of Appeal raised the competition-infringement fee imposed on NCC in the asphalt case from NOK 40 M to NOK 150 M. It has been made clear in this case that it was a former employee in a Norwegian subsidiary who committed an infraction by engaging in illegal cooperation with a competitor. This conduct is disloyal, and violates all instructions and guidelines for NCC's business activities. NCC contends that the decision is not in accordance with EU or Norwegian law. NCC has appealed the decision to the Supreme Court of Norway.

Events after the close of the quarter

DIVIDEND

NCC's Annual General Meeting on March 24, 2015 resolved to pay a dividend of SEK 12.00 (12.00) per share to the shareholders for the 2014 fiscal year, distributed in two payments. SEK 6.00 was paid on March 31 and SEK 6.00 was paid on October 30. This corresponds to a total dividend payment of SEK 1,294 M.

SPIN-OFF OF NCC HOUSING

In September, the Board tasked the management with analyzing the conditions for creating an independent housing development company based on the NCC Housing business area and distributing it to NCC's shareholders under the Lex Asea rules.

This analysis is now complete and our assessment is that a division of NCC would create greater possibilities to capitalize on the growth opportunities identified by NCC in both the housing market and the construction market. The Board has decided to begin preparing for a distribution of NCC Housing under the Lex Asea rules. The goal is to present further information during our Capital Markets Day on November 26.

Auditors' review report

NCC AB (publ.), Corp. Reg. No. 556034-5174

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) for NCC AB (publ) for September 30, 2015 and the nine-month period then ended. The Board of Directors and the President are responsible for preparing and presenting this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this interim report based on our review.

Focus and scope of the review

We have conducted our review in accordance with the 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 direction and is substantially more limited in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing 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 opinion expressed based on a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed based on an audit.

Conclusions

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that, in all material respects, the accompanying interim report has not been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act for the Group, and in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act for the Parent Company.

Other disclosures

The review of the interim report dated September 30, 2014 was performed by another auditor, who submitted a review report dated October 24, 2014 with an unmodified conclusion.

NCC in brief

VISION

NCC's vision is to renew our industry and provide superior sustainable solutions.

BUSINESS CONCEPT – RESPONSIBLE ENTERPRISE

NCC develops and builds future environments for working, living and communication. Supported by its values, NCC and its customers jointly identify needsbased, cost-effective and high-quality solutions that generate added value for all of NCC's stakeholders and contribute to sustainable social development.

OBJECTIVE

NCC's overriding objective is to create value for its customers and shareholders. NCC aims to be a leading player in the markets in which it is active, to offer sustainable solutions and to be the customer's first choice.

FINANCIAL OBJECTIVES AND DIVIDEND POLICY

NCC aims to generate a healthy return to shareholders under financial stability. The return on equity after tax shall amount to 20 percent. The level for the return target is based on the margins that the various parts of the Group are expected to generate on a sustainable basis, and on capital requirements in relation to the prevailing business focus.

To ensure that the return target is not reached by taking financial risks, net indebtedness, defined as interestbearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents and interest-bearing receivables, must never exceed 1.5 times shareholders' equity during any given quarter.

NCC's dividend policy is to distribute at least half of aftertax profit for the year to the shareholders. The aim of the policy is to generate a healthy return for NCC's shareholders and to provide NCC with the potential to invest in its operations and thus ensure that future growth can be created while maintaining financial stability.

ORGANIZATION

NCC conducts integrated construction and development operations in the Nordic region, Germany, Estonia, Latvia and St. Petersburg. The company has three businesses: industrial, construction and civil engineering, as well as development. Both operational and financial synergies exist between the businesses. The company's operations are organized in seven business areas.

STRATEGY 2012–2015

NCC aims to achieve profitable growth and be a leading player in the markets in which it is active. Being a leading player entails being among the top three companies in the industry in terms of profitability and volume. Three markets and areas are prioritized: growth in Norway in all business areas, establishing a presence in the civil engineering market in Finland and expansion of the housing development business in all markets. Growth targets have been established for NCC's various operations during the strategy period.

Definitions

INDUSTRY-SPECIFIC GLOSSARY

Construction costs: The cost of constructing a building, including building accessories, utility-connection fees, other contractor-related costs and VAT. Construction costs do not include the cost of land.

Required yield: The yield required by purchasers in connection with acquisitions of property and housing projects. Operating revenue less operating and maintenance expenses divided by the investment value, also called yield.

Proprietary project: When NCC, for its own development purposes, acquires land, designs a project, conducts construction work and then sells the project. Pertains to both housing projects and commercial property projects.

Leasing rate: The percentage of anticipated rental revenues that corresponds to signed leases (also called leasing rate based on revenues).

FINANCIAL KEY FIGURES

Return on equity: Net profit for the year according to the income statement excluding non-controlling interests, as a percentage of average shareholders' equity.

Return on capital employed: Profit after financial items including results from participations in associated companies following the reversal of interest expense in relation to average capital employed.

Dividend yield: The dividend as a percentage of the market price at year-end.

Net indebtedness: Interest-bearing liabilities and provisions less financial assets including cash and cash equivalents.

Net sales: The net sales of construction operations are recognized in accordance with the percentage-ofcompletion principle. These revenues are recognized in pace with the gradual completion of construction projects within the company. For NCC Housing, net sales are recognized when the housing unit is transferred to the end customer. Property sales are recognized on the date on which significant risks and benefits are transferred to the buyer, which normally coincides with the transfer of ownership. In the Parent Company, net sales correspond to recognized sales from completed projects.

Orders received: Value of received projects and changes in existing projects during the period concerned. Proprietary projects for sale, if a decision to initiate the assignment has been taken, are also included among assignments received, as are finished properties included in inventory.

Order backlog: Period-end value of the remaining nonworked-up project revenues for projects received, including proprietary projects for sale that have not been completed.

Capital employed: Total assets less interest-free liabilities including deferred tax liabilities. Average capital employed is calculated as the average of the balances per quarter.
