STATEMENT BY THE CEO

YET ANOTHER QUARTER OF STRONG PROFITABLE GROWTH

We continued to deliver strong profitable growth in yet another quarter. The loan portfolio increased 18 per cent year-on-year to SEK 27.5 billion in the third quarter. This strong growth continues to be driven by both the banking segment and all geographic markets. The performance is well in line with our financial target of lending growth of more than 10 per cent. We are growing faster than the market and continuously increasing our market shares.

Profit after tax for the quarter increased 9 per cent to SEK 306 million. As in previous quarters this year, credit losses increased in the third quarter compared with the yearearlier period, mainly as a result of the new reporting standard IFRS 9. We can see that going forward the underlying credit risk is stable for the Group as a whole.

Digitisation — the main competitive tool

We are continuing to develop and launch new and innovative solutions for our retail finance partners and customers. Digitisation has been the most important tool for many years and we are at the forefront of these advances.

An example is the launch of our Click & Collect service in Payment Solutions during the quarter. This is a digital solution that allows a manufacturer, supplier, franchise group or groups of individual retailers to quickly and easily offer a central e-commerce checkout combined with local management of inventories and store checkout. Click & Collect is an omni-channel solution that provides a seamless customer journey between e-commerce and physical store. For example, Crescent and Monark, that jointly have about 50 independent stores, chose our solution during the quarter.

We are also continuing to develop and digitise our work process and sales tools. Our proprietary credit engine is a robust tool for increasing growth while retaining good control of credit lending. For us, it is a new tool with which to cultivate the market and we are continuously working on integrating it into the operations. As a result, we adjusted our prices in Sweden at the start of the quarter, which led to higher lending growth but margins that were too low according to our targets. For this reason, we have now adjusted the credit engine to manage more flexible pricing for various channels, which creates the conditions for higher margins in Consumer Loans during the fourth quarter.

Credit engine also offers a simpler and more automated application process for customers. Since its launch in Sweden, the percentage of automatic responses to loan applications has risen from 50 to 97 per cent. This is positive for both our customers and us since it reduces manual processing and significantly accelerates the application process. The speed of the application process is just as important a factor as price for customers in their choice of bank.

Further development of sales tools

We have already introduced machine learning/artificial intelligence (AI) in credit lending and we are now advancing this to strengthen our sales. We launched AI in Supreme Card in the quarter. The algorithms mean that we can more quickly and with better precision identify behaviour patterns among our existing customers and we can thus more effectively tailor attractive activities and offers. We will continue to fine-tune algorithms and work processes in future quarters.

Overall, we delivered another quarter of strong profitable growth. We are continuing to develop our offering to our customers and retail finance partners, and we look forward to continuing to grow and capture market shares in all geographic markets.

GROUP RESULTS*

THIRD QUARTER 2018, JULY—SEPTEMBER

Operating income

SEK 96 million (86). Net expense from financial transactions amounted to SEK -4 million (-6), primarily comprising changes in value of investments in interest-bearing securities, equities and exchange-rate differences. Other operating income, mainly comprising remuneration from lending operations, amounted to SEK 50 million (48).

Operating expenses

The Group's expenses before credit losses increased 14 per cent to SEK -348 million (-305). Personnel expenses rose SEK 22 million to SEK -145 million (-122) year-on-year, mainly a result of the recruitment of new employees in IT, Marketing and Business Support. General administrative costs excluding personnel expenses increased SEK 9 million to SEK -138 million (-129), mainly a result of market initiatives. Other operating expenses totalled SEK -52 million (-44). Viewed in relation to the operations' income, the cost level (excluding Insurance) amounted to 39.2 per cent (39.0 per cent).

Credit losses totalled SEK -139 million (-100) and the credit loss ratio was 2.1 per cent (1.8 per cent). The increase was primarily because provisions in all new lending growth have been made since year-end according to the new reporting standard IFRS 9 and credit losses in the Norwegian company yA Bank increased, which was partly offset by lower credit losses in other parts of the Group. The risk-adjusted NBI margin was 10.2 per cent (11.1 per cent). The decline was due to the increased credit loss ratio and the decline in the NBI margin in Consumer Loans in Sweden since the introduction of the credit engine at the end of the second quarter. For this reason, we have now finetuned the credit engine, which creates the conditions for higher margins in the fourth quarter. However, the risk-adjusted NBI margin in Payment Solutions strengthened during the quarter. However, the risk-adjusted NBI margin in Payment Solutions strengthened during the quarter.

Profit

Operating profit increased 8 per cent to SEK 394 million (364). Net profit for the quarter increased 9 per cent to SEK 306 million (280). Tax expense for the period amounted to SEK -88 million (-84).

NINE MONTHS 2018, JANUARY—SEPTEMBER

Operating income and expenses

The Group's operating income increased 12 per cent to SEK 2,554 million (2,283), primarily due to growth in lending. Net interest income increased 13 per cent to SEK 2,024 million (1,784), with interest income amounting to SEK 2,261 million (1,980) and interest expense to SEK -237 million (-196). Fee & commission income amounted to SEK 162 million (187) and fee & commission expense to SEK -41 million (-48). This resulted in a total net commission for the banking operations of SEK 121 million (138).

The Group's expenses before credit losses increased 9 per cent to SEK -1,047 million (-957). Viewed in relation to the operations' income, the cost level (excluding Insurance) continued to improve and amounted to 40.5 per cent (41.3 per cent) for the first nine months of the year.

Credit losses totalled SEK -395 million (-301) and the credit loss ratio was 2.1 per cent (1.8 per cent). The increase was primarily because provisions in all new lending growth have been made since year-end according to the new reporting standard IFRS 9 and lending growth has remained high throughout the period. The risk-adjusted NBI margin was 10.5 per cent (11.1 per cent).

Profit

Operating profit increased 8 per cent to SEK 1,112 million (1,026). Net profit for the period amounted to SEK 860 million (791). Tax expense for the period amounted to SEK -252 million (-235).

OPERATING PROFIT FOR THE PERIOD

FINANCIAL POSITION AT 30 SEPTEMBER 2018*

Comparative figures for this section refer to year-end 2017, except for cash flow for which comparative figures refer to the same period in the preceding year.

On 30 September 2018, the Group's financial position was strong, with a capital base of SEK 4,274 million (3,905) in the consolidated situation, comprising the Parent Company, Resurs Holding AB, and the Resurs Bank Group. The total capital ratio was 15.3 per cent (15.5 per cent) and the Common Equity Tier 1 ratio was 13.8 per cent (13.6 per cent).

Lending to the public at 30 September 2018 amounted to SEK 27,470 million (24,069). The restated comparative figure (according to Note G2) on 1 January 2018 was SEK 23,648 million, which entails an increase of 16 per cent for the period and 12 per cent excluding currency effects. Lending to the public at 30 September totalled SEK 23,218 million, which included IFRS 9 effects entailing a 18 per cent annual increase and a 15 per cent annul increase excluding currency effects. This strong growth was driven by both the banking segment and all geographic markets and is well in line with the Group's financial target of lending growth of more than 10 per cent.

In addition to capital from shareholders, the operations are financed by deposits from the public, the issued MTN bonds and the securitisation of certain loan receivables (ABS financing). The Group's strategy is to actively work with various sources of financing in order to use the most suitable source of financing at any given time and to create diversified financing in the long term.

Deposits from the public on 30 September 2018 rose 11 per cent to SEK 20,096 million (18,033). Financing through issued securities totalled SEK 7,889 million (5,597). Liquidity remained healthy and the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) was 198 per cent (201 per cent) in the consolidated situation. The minimum statutory LCR ratio is 100 per cent. Lending to credit institutions at 30 September 2018 amounted to SEK 3,214 million (2,794). Holdings of treasury and other bills eligible for refinancing, as well as bonds and other interest-bearing securities, totalled SEK 3,130 million (2,578).

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK -1,394 million (1,716) for the year. Cash flow from deposits amounted to SEK 1,595 million (-490) and the net change in investment assets totalled SEK -464 million (40). Cash flow from investing activities for the period totalled SEK -107 million (-48) and cash flow from financing activities was SEK 1,845 million (1,505). Since year-end, outstanding bonds issued under Resurs Bank's MTN programme have been expanded by SEK 1,400 million and ABS financing expanded by SEK 800 million.

Intangible assets amounted to SEK 2,029 million (1,877), and primarily comprise the goodwill that arose in the acquisition of Finaref and Danaktiv in 2014 and yA Bank in 2015.

SEGMENT REPORTING

RESURS HOLDING'S THREE SEGMENTS

Resurs Holding has divided its operations into three business segments, based on the products and services offered: Payment Solutions, Consumer Loans and Insurance

Payment Solutions delivers finance, payment and loyalty solutions that drive retail sales, as well as credit cards to the public. Consumer Loans focuses primarily on lending to consumers. Insurance includes the wholly owned subsidiary Solid Försäkring, active within consumer insurance. For the first nine months of 2018, Payment Solutions accounted for 41 per cent of the Group's operating income, while Consumer Loans and Insurance accounted for 54 and 5 per cent, respectively.

PERCENTAGE OF OPERATING INCOME JAN—SEP 2018

PAYMENT SOLUTIONS

Continued strong growth with stable margins

THIRD QUARTER 2018, JULY—SEPTEMBER

Payment Solutions reported sustained strong profitable growth in the quarter, despite the long, hot summer that presented challenges for parts of the retail sector.

During the quarter, Payment Solutions successfully initiated several partnerships with new retail finance partners, while existing partnerships progressed positively. One of the partnerships initiated in the Finnish market was Stark Bygghandel with 26 stores and significant e-commerce. In Norway, a partnership was started with Babycare with 50 stores and No 1 Fitness with 26 gyms. Collaborations were also initiated with a number of e-commerce partners during the quarter, for example, Zave Värmepumpshopen in Sweden and Norway, Grooming.se and Barbershop.se. It was particularly gratifying that the latter two companies chose to return to Resurs after having been with a competitor for some time.

The Click & Collect solution was launched during the quarter. This is a digital solution that allows a manufacturer, supplier, franchise group or groups of individual retailers to quickly and easily offer a central e-commerce checkout combined with local management of inventories and store checkout. Click & Collect is an omni-channel solution that provides a seamless customer journey between e-commerce and physical store. Crescent and Monark, which together have about 50 independent stores, joined Click & Collect in the quarter.

The strategy of selling Supreme Cards in inbound calls to Business Support to a greater extent has resulted in higher profitability in the card business. The reason for this is that activities targeting existing, loyal customers have increased and costs have fallen. AI was launched in Supreme Card during the quarter, meaning that we can identify behaviour patterns among existing customers more quickly and with better precision, and can thus more effectively customise attractive activities and offerings.

Operating income increased 14 per cent to SEK 361 million (315). The increase was mainly related to higher business volumes. Operating income less credit losses amounted to SEK 331 million (273), and the risk-adjusted NBI margin was 13.1 per cent (12.2 per cent). The higher margin was driven by lower credit losses that were primarily the result of the volatility entailed by the new reporting standard IFRS 9.

NINE MONTHS 2018, JANUARY—SEPTEMBER

On 30 September 2018, lending to the public increased 13 per cent to SEK 10,185 million (9,052), a 9 per cent increase in constant currencies. Growth was mainly driven by higher volumes from existing retail finance partners in all markets. Operating income totalled SEK 1,052 million (937), up 12 per cent year-on-year, primarily related to increased business volumes.

Operating income less credit losses amounted to SEK 915 million (826), and the riskadjusted NBI margin was 12.5 per cent (12.3 per cent).

ABOUT PAYMENT SOLUTIONS

The Payment Solutions segment is comprised of retail finance and credit cards. Within retail finance, Resurs is a leading partner for sales-driving finance, payment and loyalty solutions in the Nordic region.

Credit cards includes the Resurs credit cards (with Supreme Card being the foremost) as well as cards that enable retail finance partners to promote their own brands.

Strong growth in all countries
THIRD QUARTER 2018, JULY—SEPTEMBER
Consumer Loans another strong quarter with growth of 22 per cent compared with the
third quarter of 2017. All markets performed strongly, with Finland growing the most in
per cent and Sweden and Norway the most in absolute terms.
The proprietary credit engine was launched in Sweden, Norway and Finland and is a
robust tool for increasing growth while retaining good control of credit lending. For us,
it is a new tool with which to cultivate the market and we are continuously working on
integrating it into the operations. It resulted in adjustments to prices in Sweden at the
start of the quarter, which led to higher lending growth but margins that were too low.
For this reason, the credit engine was adjusted during the quarter to manage more
flexible pricing for various channels, which creates the conditions for higher margins in
Consumer Loans during the fourth quarter.
The introduction of the credit engine also entailed continued digitisation and efficiency
enhancements in processes. For example, more than half of all loans paid are now e
signed and the segment is reporting continuous increases. Furthermore, the
percentage of automatic responses from the credit engine has risen from 50 to 97 per
cent. Digitisation is enhancing the efficiency of internal processing and accelerating the
application process, which generates positive effects for both the customer and Resurs.
The speed of the application process is just as important a factor as price for customers
in their choice of bank.
Operating income increased 15 per cent year-on-year to SEK 478 million (417). The
increase was mainly related to higher business volumes. Operating income less credit
losses rose 3 per cent to SEK 369 million (360), and the risk-adjusted NBI margin
amounted to 8.7 per cent (10.4 per cent). The decline was due to the margin effect
since the price adjustments in Sweden described above and credit losses for the
quarter increasing to 2.6 per cent (1.7 per cent). The increase was mainly attributable to
the Norwegian subsidiary yA Bank and the introduction of the new reporting standard
IFRS 9. We can see that the underlying credit risk for Consumer Loans remains stable
and we believe that the level will normalise in the fourth quarter.
NINE MONTHS 2018, JANUARY—SEPTEMBER
On 30 September 2018, lending to the public increased 22 per cent to SEK
17,285 million (14,166), a 18 per cent increase in constant currencies. Operating income
for the period increased 14 per cent to SEK 1,386 million (1,220).
Operating income less credit losses rose 9 per cent to SEK 1,127 million (1,031), and the
risk-adjusted NBI margin amounted to 9.5 per cent (10.3 per cent). The decline was
mainly attributable to effects in the third quarter.

INSURANCE

Continued stable performance and strong growth in technical result

THIRD QUARTER 2018, JULY—SEPTEMBER

In the third quarter, Insurance reported a continued positive performance and continued to work together with its partners during the quarter on increasing conversion both online and physical stores for long-term growth. Insurance also continued its focused efforts on cultivating new customers in all Nordic markets and signed agreements with companies including Orio. Orio, formerly Saab Automobile Parts, is a global spare part supplier with affiliated workshops. Insurance is now an insurance provider for Saab's roadside assistance Saab 3D Assistans that increases the safety of Saab car owners on the road. The launch of brokerage of Chubb Nordic's children's and accident insurance was prepared for the Nordic market during the quarter.

The important category of bicycles in the Product line performed well and the number of new registrations of bicycle insurance increased 8 per cent compared with the same quarter in the preceding year. Insurance continued to develop the digital marketing of its customer communication to cost efficiently drive conversion rates and establish longterm relationships with policyholders.

Premium earned, net, increased 4 per cent to SEK 210 million (203) in the third quarter, mainly attributable to the Security product line. Operating income for the quarter rose 28 per cent to SEK 50 million (39). Interest income fell SEK 1 million compared with the year-earlier quarter. Net income from financial transactions increased to SEK 6 million (-1), primarily as a result of the positive trend in the equity portfolio.

The technical result increased 14 per cent to SEK 21 million (19) year-on-year, due to improved profitability in the Security, Product and Motor business lines. Operating profit increased 46 per cent to SEK 27 million (19) year-on-year. The total combined ratio improved to 90.6 per cent (91.5 per cent), primarily due to a lower claims ratio.

NINE MONTHS 2018, JANUARY—SEPTEMBER

Premium earned, net, increased 2 per cent year-on-year to SEK 616 million (606). This increase was primarily attributable to the Security and Motor business lines. Operating income for the period increased by 6 per cent to SEK 140 million (132). Net expense from financial transactions declined year-on-year due to lower market values for both the equities and bond portfolio and amounted to SEK 4 million (10).

The technical result increased 23 per cent to SEK 62 million (50) year-on-year, mainly due to increased profitability in the Travel and Security business lines. Operating profit increased 12 per cent to SEK 70 million (63) year-on-year as a result of increased operating income and good cost control. The total combined ratio improved to 90.7 per cent (92.5 per cent), primarily attributable to the positive trend in the claims ratio.

ABOUT INSURANCE

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS SOME OF RESURS'S NEW

JANUARY—SEPTEMBER 2018

Resolution on dividends in Resurs Holding and buyback authorisation

The Annual General Meeting held on 27 April 2018 resolved on a dividend of SEK 1.80 per share, totalling SEK 360 million. Including the dividend of SEK 1.50 paid on 3 November 2017, the 2017 dividend amounts to SEK 3.30, which amounts to 61 per cent of earnings per share, a total of SEK 660 million. The Resurs share was traded ex rights from 30 April 2018. The record date was 2 May 2018 and the dividend was paid on 7 May 2018.

The Meeting also resolved to authorise the Board to acquire own shares on the stock exchange for the period until the next Annual General Meeting. The authorisation to buy back shares encompasses up to 5 per cent of the shares in the company.

Resurs Bank intends to carry out an intra-Group cross-border merger with yA Bank AS

The Boards of Resurs Bank and yA Bank decided in April 2018 to approve a joint merger plan and merger statement for a cross-border merger between the companies. The merger is expected to be completed not later than 31 December 2018. The proposed merger enables more efficient utilisation of internal resources and transfer of knowledge, a broader range of products under the Resurs brand and optimised capital and liquidity utilisation within the Resurs Group.

The implementation of the merger entails that the regulatory capital requirement is lowered by 0.6 percentage points due to the lower buffer requirement, in absolute terms this corresponds to SEK 160 million. At the same time, the capital ratio was strengthened by 0.3 percentage points due to the decline in currency exposure, corresponding to SEK 70 million.

Resurs Bank expanded and extended ABS financing

The ABS financing was expanded in January 2018, and a new 18-month revolving period commenced. For Resurs Bank, this means that external financing increased from SEK 2.1 billion to SEK 2.9 billion.

AFTER THE END OF THE PERIOD

The Extraordinary General Meeting held on 5 October 2018 resolved to pay a cash dividend of SEK 1.65 per share to shareholders, totalling SEK 330 million. The record date was 9 October 2018 and the dividend was paid on 12 October 2018.

To determine whether there is a significant increase in risk, and thus a
transfer to stage 2, the bank starts by assessing the change in the
expected life PD (Probability of Default) of the credit. In order for there to
be a significant increase in risk, a change in start PD must amount to the
total of a given threshold and a percentage change in the start PD.
In addition, the bank also uses an absolute change in PD that entails that if
a lifetime PD increases by a given percentage point, which varies
depending on product category, then it is attributable to stage 2.

G3. Financing - Consolidated situation

A core component of financing efforts is maintaining a well-diversified financing structure with access to several sources of financing. Access to a number of sources of financing means that it is possible to use the most appropriate source of financing at any particular time.

The main type of financing remains deposits from the public. The largest share of deposits is in Sweden, but deposits are also offered in Norway by yA Bank. Deposits, which are analysed on a regular basis, totalled SEK 20,234 million (18,147), whereof in Sweden SEK 13,664 million (12,817) and in Norway SEK 6,570 million (5,330). The lending to the public/deposits from the public ratio for the consolidated situation is 136 per cent (133 per cent).

Resurs Bank has a funding programme for issuing bonds, the programme amounts to SEK 8,000 million (5,000). Within the programme, Resurs Bank has been working successfully to issue bonds on a regular basis and sees itself as an established issuer on the market. Resurs Bank has primarily issued bonds in Sweden but also in Norway. The programme has ten outstanding issues at a nominal amount of SEK 4,250 million (2,850) and NOK 400 million (400).

Of the ten issues, nine are senior unsecured bonds and one issue is a subordinated loan of SEK 300 million. Resurs Bank has, outside the programme, issued subordinated loan of SEK 200 million (200). yA Bank has, outside the programme, issued NOK 600 million (600) in senior unsecured bonds and subordinated loan NOK 40 million (40).

Resurs Bank has completed a securitisation of loan receivables, a form of structured financing, referred to as Asset Backed Securities (ABS). This took subsidiaries Resurs Consumer Loans 1 Limited. In January 2018 the financing expanded and at 30 September 2018 a total of appoximately SEK 3.7 billion in loan receivables had been transferred to Resurs Consumer Loans. The acquisition of loan receivables by Resurs Consumer Loans was financed by an international financial institution. Resurs Bank has, for a period of 18 months (revolving period), the right to continue sale of certain additional loan receivables to Resurs Consumer Loans. Resurs Bank and Resurs Consumer Loans have provided security for the assets that form part of the securitisation. At the balance sheet date, the external financing amounted to SEK 2.9 billion (2.1) of the ABS financing. RESURS HOLDING AB | INTERIM REPORT JAN—SEP 201819

Liquidity - Consolidated situation

RESURS HOLDING AB INTERIM REPORT JAN—SEP 2018
Liquidity - Consolidated situation
Liquidity risk includes the risk of not being able to meet liquidity
commitments without significantly higher costs.The consolidated situation,
comprised of the Parent Company Resurs Holding AB and the Resurs
Bank AB Group, must maintain a liquidity reserve and have access to an
unutilised liquidity margin in the event of irregular or unexpected liquidity
flows.
There are also other liquidity requirements regulating and controlling the
business. The liquidity reserve, totalling SEK 1,801 million (1,744), is in
accordance with Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority regulations on
liquidity risk management (FFFS 2010:7) and applicable amendments
thereto) for the consolidated situation. Accordingly, assets are
segregated, unutilised and of high quality. The liquidity reserve largely
comprises assets with the highest credit quality rating. In addition to the
responsibilities and monitoring and include a contingency plan. The
purpose of the contingency plan is to make preparations for various
courses of action should the liquidity situation trend unfavourably. The
contingency plan includes, among other things, risk indicators and action
functions.
liquidity reserve, the consolidated situation has other liquid assets
primarily comprised of cash balances with other banks. These assets are
of high credit quality and total SEK 4,137 million (3,113) for the
consolidated situation. Accordingly, total liquidity amounted to SEK
5,938 million (4,857). Total liquidity corresponded to 29 per cent (27 per
cent) of deposits from the public. The Group also has unutilised credit
facilities of NOK 50 million (50).
Liquidity comprises both a liquidity reserve and another liquidity portfolio
that is monitored on a daily basis. The main liquidity risk is deemed to
arise in the event multiple depositors simultaneously withdraw their
deposited funds. An internal model is used to set minimum requirements
for the amount of the liquidity reserve, calculated based on deposit
volumes, the proportion covered by deposit insurance and relationship to
depositors. The model also takes into account the future maturities of
issued securities. The Board has stipulated that the liquidity reserve may
never fall below SEK 1,200 million. Apart from the liquidity reserve, there is
an intraday liquidity requirement of at least 4 per cent of deposits from
Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) for the consolidated situation is reported
to the authorities on a monthly basis. The LCR shows the ratio between
high qualitative assets and net outflow during a 30-day stressed period.
A ratio of 100 per cent means the assets managed the stress test
scenario and is also the authority's limit. As at 30 September 2018, the
ratio for the consolidated situation is 198 per cent (201 per cent). For the
period January to September 2018, the average LCR measures 204 per
cent for the consolidated situation.

Auditors' report of review of interim financial information

Resurs Holding AB, corporate identity number 556898-2291

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim report for Resurs Holding AB as at September 30, 2018 and for the nine months period then ended. The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies and for the parent company in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements, ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Statements 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 is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing 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. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act for Credit Institutions and Securities Companies regarding the group, and in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act regarding the parent company.
