COMMENTS FROM THE CEO

WINTER SEASON SHOWS GROWTH DESPITE CHALLENGING WEATHER CONDITIONS – POSITIVE OUTLOOK FOR THE 2025/26 WINTER SEASON

To summarise the third quarter, revenue declined by six percent, or SEK -85 million, primarily due to reduced revenue from SkiPass and Accommodation, resulting in an operating profit of SEK 377 million, down by SEK 41 million compared with the corresponding quarter in the previous year. Operating profit in the quarter was adversely affected by the late Easter and very mild weather, which created challenges for all our destinations. Our personnel made extra efforts, especially during the Easter weekend and the last week of the winter season, to be able to offer our guests the best conditions possible. Regardless of that, the snow guarantee was activated week 17 at three of our destinations, but the financial impact during the quarter due to that was limited. In the quarter, we improved our commercial terms and conditions and increased our credit with our banks, which, as our debt was already low, strengthened our financial position. These loans and credit facilities are also linked to sustainability performance.

The first nine months of the year shows a winter season with growth

For the first nine months of the financial year we continued our growth. We recorded a strong start over the Christmas and New Year holidays, and this performance continued and resulted in a very strong second quarter. The late Easter holiday and the warm weather had a negative impact on performance in the last weeks of the winter season. We reported an increase in revenue of two percent (SEK +70 million), and an improved operating profit (SEK +76 million). Despite the weak end to the third quarter, we reported our second best ever accumulated operating profit of SEK 1,095 million (SEK 1,018 million).

The number of international guests in the winter season was higher than ever and the number of skier days amounted to just over 6 million (-1.6%), which was the second highest number in the history of the company, after a record number of skier days in the previous year. This proves that skiing is as popular as ever and that private households are choosing to prioritise their mountain holiday, despite challenging financial situation. Demand for ski school lesson remains high, with 107,000 (+7%) participants, of whom 75 percent were children and young people. This bodes well for our growth and future skiers at our destinations. Our Sporting goods stores continued to show accumulated growth (+6%) and recorded sales of SEK 658 million in a challenging market, with our own brand EQPE recording growth of around +33 percent.

The property market is and has been cautious in the financial year, but we see an upturn ahead of the coming year, with new projects that will result in more accommodation for our guests, and increased capital gains.

We are pleased that our guests appreciate our employees. According to our guest surveys, 9 out of 10 guests think that the way they are treated and the service provided by e.g. skiing instructors, lift hosts and workers at the ski equipment hire services is very good. Just as many, 9 out of 10 guests, also think that our digital solutions for check-in, prebooking of ski hire and SkiPass are smooth and easy to use. Additionally, I would personally like to pay tribute to everyone for their work during the season.

Summer season builds volume for the future

The transformation into a year-round company continues and, on 6 June, our destinations changed appearance from winter to spring/summer destinations. After the Midsummer weekend, we will open additional new services to enable us to offer guests active relaxation in the Scandinavian mountain world. Our long-term intention is to build volume in the coming years with a focus on providing an increased programme of activities on site for our guests, involving a large range of experiences. We have also concluded an agreement with the two largest operators on the market to launch a football cup in Sälen next summer, which will attract more guests to spend time at our destinations.

Continued investments result in reduced emissions

Our sustainability work continues at a high pace. In the third quarter, we entered into an agreement on strategic collaboration with the train operators SJ and Snälltåget giving our guests the opportunity to book their train ticket earlier, and with the intention of reducing the carbon footprint associated with guests travelling to our destinations. We are also very proud to have taken the initiative to form the Global Sustainability Alliance, in which we and seven other global operators in our industry sector will work on sustainability initiatives focusing on our suppliers. A particular focus area is travel by our guests, because this accounts for the largest proportion of our climate impact. We are, therefore, pleased that our accumulated emissions so far in the financial year of 2024/25 have fell by -12 percent. Currently, 30 percent of our guests arrive at our destinations in an electric or hybrid car.

Stable demand for the 2025/26 winter season

SkiStar is continuing to celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2025 and is continuing to invest in the mountain resorts of the future. Ahead of the 2025/26 winter season, we are maintaining a high pace of investment, with projects involving a new gondola lift in Trysil, a new ski area in Vemdalen and a new lift with lightning in Åre/Björnen. All these projects will be completed by Christmas 2025. We are also making the mountains accessible to many more people through the introduction of reduced prices at two ski areas.

We are seeing increased demand from more international markets, with EasyJet launching two new flight routes, from London and Manchester, to the airport in Sälen, which is partially owned by us. TUI continues to focus on Scandinavia and two new services from Germany and Belgium will be added to their existing Dutch market. We are also seeing continued strong demand from Denmark. Overall, demand shows that many people still prioritise a mountain holiday and value alpine skiing highly, even in more challenging times. Ahead of the coming winter season approximately 30 percent of the expected accommodation volume has been booked, which is according to plan. Booking volumes, measured as the number of overnight stays booked through SkiStar's mediated accommodation, are up by 1 percent compared with the same period in the previous year. I am, therefore, looking forward with confidence to the future of SkiStar as a mountain tourism company that creates memorable mountain experiences all year round.

REVENUE AND EARNINGS IN THE THIRD QUARTER

THE GROUP'S PERFORMANCE

MARCH 2025 – MAY 2025

Revenue in the third quarter amounted to SEK 1,408 million (1,493). Net sales fell by SEK 84 million to SEK 1,405 million (1,490), a decrease of 6 percent compared with the same period in the previous year. The decline in sales affected all major sources of revenue, other than revenue from restaurants and property exploitation. The Group acquired the company Topeja AB on 1 May, resulting in that SkiStar has taken over the running of hotel operations at Högfjällshotellet in Sälen. Changes in the NOK/SEK exchange rate had a negative effect on sales of SEK -26 million (4) corresponding to -2 percent. Organic growth, excluding exchange rate effects and acquisitions, was negative during the quarter and amounted to SEK -60 million (66), which corresponded to -4 percent (5). Operating profit fell by SEK 41 million to SEK 377 million (418), corresponding to a decrease of -10 percent. The decline in operating profit was due to a fall in sales, caused by factors such as warm weather and the late Easter holiday. At week 17, the snow guarantee in Sälen, Trysil and Vemdalen was activated, but the impact of the guarantee on the result was limited. Costs for merchandises declined by 1 percent and other external expenses declined by 12 percent, while personnel costs increased by 5 percent. Changes in the NOK/SEK exchange rate had a negative effect of SEK -7 million (-1) on operating profit. Operating profit was affected by profits from associates/joint ventures of SEK 3 million (5) and depreciation/amortisation of SEK -144 million (-139).

Net financial items in the quarter amounted to SEK -22 million (-23), an improvement of SEK 1 million. The items with the greatest impact on net financial items were as follows.

Changes in the value of interest rate derivatives amounted to SEK -2 million (-3). Exchange losses amounted to SEK -19 million (-17) and exchange gains amounted to SEK 18 million (21). Exchange rate fluctuations were primarily attributable to the remeasurement of intra-Group balances.

Operation of Mountain Resorts

Revenue was SEK 1,203 million (1,302). Net sales amounted to SEK 1,200 million (1,299), a decrease of SEK -99 million, or -8 percent, on the same period in the previous year. Operating profit fell by SEK 71 million to SEK 328 million (399), corresponding to a decrease of -18 percent. During the quarter, the largest revenue category was sales of SkiPasses and sales amounted to SEK 634 million (692), a decrease of SEK 58 million, or -8 percent. Sales in Sporting goods stores, including online sales and ski hire, amounted to SEK 159 million (166), a decrease of 5 percent. Accommodation revenue amounted to SEK 271 million (312), a decrease of SEK -41 million. External expenses declined during the quarter by SEK 35 million and amounted to SEK -759 million (-794), a decrease of 4 percent. In particular, repair and maintenance costs and vehicle costs decreased. Depreciation amounted to SEK -103 million (-96), an increase of SEK 7 million, as a result of the higher rate of investment in recent years.

Property Development and Exploitation

Revenue was SEK 52 million (42) and net sales amounted to SEK 39 million (30). The increase was due to a rise in revenue from property exploitation compared with the corresponding period in the previous year. External expenses amounted to SEK -15 million (-11). Property transactions was carried out in the quarter resulting in capital gains of SEK 31 million (-4), which contributed to the improvement in operating profit. Operating profit amounted to SEK 31 million (-9), up by SEK 40 million.

Operation of Hotels

Revenue amounted to SEK 166 million (162), corresponding to net sales, which increased by SEK 2 million compared with the same period last year. Operating profit decreased by SEK 10 million to SEK 19 million (29), a decline of 35 percent. Accommodation revenue decreased by SEK 5 million as a result of lower volumes, while sales from restaurants increased by SEK 7 million in the quarter, primarily as a result of the new restaurants in Sälen. External operating expenses increased by SEK 8 million to SEK -113 million (-105). The increase was due to a rise in direct expenses as a result of the increase in net sales.

Seasonal effects

SkiStar's operations are subject to significant seasonal variations. Most revenue and earnings are generated in the second and third quarters. The number of days off during Christmas and New Year, and whether Easter falls early or late, also cause variations in earnings. More than half of the revenue is paid in advance.

Changes in the NOK/SEK exchange rate had a negative effect of SEK -49 million (-51), or -1 percent, on net sales. Organic growth, excluding exchange rate effects and acquisitions, was positive during the period and amounted to SEK 112 million (425), which corresponds to 3 percent (11). The increase in sales in the ninemonth period was due to several revenue streams but the main increase came from SkiPass, thanks to an increased proportion of international guests and improved pricing and product mix.

Operating profit increased by SEK 76 million, or 7 percent, to SEK 1,095 million (1,019). The operating margin was 25 percent (23) in the period. Changes in the NOK/SEK exchange rate had a negative effect of SEK -14 million (-13), or -1 percent (-1), on operating profit. Operating profit included profit/loss from associates/joint ventures of SEK 10 million (4) and profit/loss from plot and land sales, as well as sales of shares in tenantowner associations and Vacation Club of SEK 50 million (-10), in addition to depreciation/amortisation of SEK -416 million (-399). The improved operating profit was attributable primarily to the increase in revenue.

During the period, net financial items amounted to SEK -73 million (-87), an improvement of SEK 14 million. The improvement in net financial items was mainly attributable to the following items. Changes in the value of interest rate derivatives amounted to SEK 4 million (-20). Interest expenses amounted to SEK -77 million (-91), including lease-related interest of SEK -34 million (-31) under IFRS 16.

Operation of Mountain Resorts

Revenue was SEK 3,831 million (3,738). Net sales amounted to SEK 3,812 million (3,725), an increase of SEK 87 million, or 2 percent, on the same period in the previous year. Most of the increase in sales was in the second quarter and stemmed primarily from SkiPass (up SEK 63 million) and the Sporting goods stores (up SEK 19 million). Operating profit was unchanged compared with the previous year and amounted to SEK 991 million (991).

Property Development and Exploitation

Revenue was SEK 118 million (176) and net sales amounted to SEK 81 million (141). The decrease in net sales was due to lower revenue from property exploitation transactions in the current financial year. However, capital gains from these transactions have increased and amounted to SEK 50 million (-10). Operating profit/loss increased by a total of SEK 77 million to SEK 45 million (-32).

Operation of Hotels

Revenue amounted to SEK 512 million (475), corresponding to net sales, which increased by SEK 38 million, an increase of 8 percent compared with the corresponding period in the previous year. The increase primarily comprised restaurant revenue. Operating profit decreased by SEK 1 million to SEK 59 million (60). The decrease was mostly due to increased purchasing costs and personnel costs.

FINANCIAL POSITIONS, TAXES AND INVESTMENTS ETC.

Cash flow

Cash flow from operating activities after changes in working capital was SEK 1,258 million (1,318) for the period, a decrease of SEK 60 million compared with the corresponding period in the previous year. The difference was primarily due to the repayment of a large current loan receivable in the previous year, which had a positive impact on working capital last year.

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -295 million (-433). The change was due mainly to lower investments during the period. Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK -963 million (-889). The change was primarily due to a higher rate of repayment of loans in the current financial year, linked to the agreed refinancing package, and a higher dividend payout this financial year compared with the previous year, SEK -219 million (- 204).

Liquidity and financing

The Group's cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 24 million (26) at the end of May. Unused credit facilities amounted to SEK 246 million (463). The Group's total available liquidity at the end of the period was SEK 271 million (490). Interest-bearing liabilities excluding IFRS 16 amounted to SEK 1,352 million (1,704), a decrease of SEK 352 million. At the start of the financial year, corresponding liabilities amounted to SEK 1,938 million, a decrease of SEK 586 million. Interest-bearing liabilities including IFRS 16 amounted to SEK 3,394 million (3,852), a decrease of SEK 458 million on the previous year. Total interest-bearing liabilities include liabilities recognised in accordance with IFRS 16 of SEK 2,042 million (2,148), of which lease liabilities of SEK 1,329 million (1,438) to the partly owned joint venture holding Skiab Invest. The average interest rate during the period, including interest rate swaps but excluding IFRS 16, was 3.90 percent (4.34). Interest-bearing net debt relative to EBITDA, excluding IFRS 16, for the most recent twelve-month period was 1.1 times (1.5). The equity/assets ratio increased to 49 percent (45). The equity/assets ratio excluding IFRS 16 was 64 percent (60).

A refinancing agreement was concluded with DNB, Handelsbanken and Nordea, resulting in improved commercial terms and conditions and increased credit of SEK 700 million, as well as total loans and credit facilities of SEK 2,800 million. All loans and credit facilities are also linked to sustainability performance.

Tax

Tax expense for the period amounted to SEK -208 million (-186) and was largely attributable to current tax.

Investments

Investments for the period amounted to SEK 373 million (553) gross and SEK 295 million (433) net. The difference between gross and net is disposals.

Depreciation and amortisation for the same period amounted to SEK -416 million (-399). The increase is mainly explained by the higher rate of investment in previous years.

Personnel

The average number of employees was 1,909 (1,818), an increase of 91 compared with the previous year. Personnel costs amounted to SEK 912 million (842). The increases are primarily attributable to annual contractual increases, along with additional capacity in the form of new businesses and increased production volumes.

Related-party transactions

Ekhaga Utveckling AB, which is the main owner of SkiStar with 47 percent of the votes and 24 percent of the capital as of 31 May 2025, is also the main owner of Peab with which SkiStar has a business relationship. During the period, purchases were made from Peab amounting to SEK 12 million (30). Outstanding liabilities to Peab totalled SEK 1 million (0). Sales to Peab amounted to SEK 1 million (0) and the outstanding receivable was SEK 1 million (0).

Parent Company

The Parent Company's net sales amounted to SEK 3,007 million (2,885) and operating profit was SEK 619 million (584) in the period. Net investments amounted to SEK 100 million (262).

Outlook for 2024/25

We are continuing to invest in year-round operations, which means offering our guests updated and improved experiences at our destinations over the summer season, for example, an expanded programme of events and experiences that give different customer segments more reasons to travel. We have initiated year-round collaborations with the international agents that currently sell ski trips to our destinations.

Ahead of the 2025/26 winter season

In the coming winter season, we will benefit from an advantageous calendar, with the Christmas/New Year holidays and the Epiphany weekend resulting in around three weeks of days off. Next year, Easter will be earlier, in week 14, while week 15 is a school holiday week, and we expect to see an increase in the number of guests compared to Easter in the current financial year. According to external experts the economic situation is also likely to improve and consequently we will also see an increase in disposable income. The Swedish krona has strengthened in the year, but we see a continued high demand from our international guests. In addition to the Swedish krona, the continued international growth is related to an increased number of flight routes and increased collaboration with international tour operators. Ahead of the 2025/26 winter season, we have invested in a new gondola in Trysil, new lighting and lifts in Björnen in Åre and a new ski area in Vemdalen that will result in increased volumes, as well as more satisfied guests. An interesting new offering is that we have created destination-specific SkiPasses in Klövsjö, Vemdalen and Högfjället, Sälen. The purpose of this is partly to be able to offer a cheaper introductory product to new customers and partly to attract a category of guests who are happy to ski in a smaller ski area. Our booking volume, measured as the number of overnight stays booked through SkiStar's mediated accommodation, is up by 1 percent compared with the same period in the previous year and approximately 30 percent of the expected accommodation volume has been booked, which is according to plan.

SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainability and responsible entrepreneurship are an integral part of SkiStar's strategy, business model, governance and culture. SkiStar's strategic framework is built on three foundations: safe & secure, sustainability and employees & culture. These foundations permeate everything we do and are a cornerstone of our business. SkiStar's sustainability focus areas are Activity & Recreation, Ecosystem & Impact and Dialogue & Interaction.

News during the Period

Activity & Recreation

  • Being able to offer primary and secondary school children a field day at Hammarbybacken free of charge is important, as it lowers the barriers to entry and gives all children a chance to try skiing, regardless of previous experience. During the period, we welcomed 720 children, who tried skiing both on snow and grass.
  • In the quarter, we carried out our newly launched activity Valles Kompislopp, which is intended to motivate our youngest visitors aged 0–6 years to keep active. Over one weekend, Valle visited four different cities to join children in a fun run. The races attracted nearly 600 participants, who were able to experience the joy of movement.

Ecosystem & Impact

  • During the quarter, we had a strong focus on collaborations aimed at changing our value chain and reducing emissions, with particular emphasis on travel to destinations and the supply chain. SkiStar was part of initiating the Global Sustainability Ski Alliance, which comprises eight leading ski resorts – including Compagnie des Alpes, LAAX and Kitzbühel. Together we will drive development in a traditional industry and guide suppliers in a more sustainable direction.
  • We also increased our collaboration with the train operator SJ and carried out several activities aimed at making it easier for our guests to travel to our destinations by train. For example, this year train tickets will be made available in June, earlier than ever before.
  • In addition, we are launching a new collaboration with the fuel company OKQ8 to reduce emissions from car journeys. A targeted campaign aimed at guests who travel to our destinations in diesel-powered cars is intended to encourage our guests to use the fossil-free fuel HVO100.
  • Our collaboration with the Keep Sweden Tidy and Keep Norway Tidy campaigns continued in the quarter just ended. All SkiStar employees held a joint clean-up day at all destinations and collected just over 6.8 tonnes of rubbish, down by 20 percent on the previous year. Several initiatives related to this theme were carried out during the season, for example, clearer communication with guests.

Dialogue & Interaction

  • SkiStar is continuing its long-term work on diversity and inclusion through initiatives aimed at young people living in disadvantaged parts of metropolitan areas, with the aim of providing an opening to the labour market and increase interest in seasonal work in the mountains. In May, more than 250 young people took part in recruitment events and job fairs in Stockholm and Hammarbybacken.
  • An SAO (Study Motivating Work-Life Orientation) project was launched in the quarter, where Year 8 students (14/15 year olds) from disadvantaged areas are offered the opportunity to undertake traineeships and work placements for one year. SkiStar is in active partner in the pilot project, which began in March.

NOTES

Note 1 Accounting principles

This Year-End Report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The Parent Company's accounts were prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. The accounting policies and methods of calculation applied for the Group and Parent Company are the same as those applied in preparing the most recent annual accounts and consolidated financial statements.

Preparation of financial statements in compliance with IFRS requires Company management to make accounting estimates and judgements, as well as to make assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the carrying amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. The actual outcome may differ from these estimates and assumptions. Certain statements contained in this report are forward-looking and reflect the current assessments of the Company and Board of Directors as regards future circumstances. None of the new IFRS standards, amended standards and interpretations applicable from first of September 2023 have had a material impact on the financial reporting of the Group or the Parent Company. No new or changed standards have been applied prematurely.

In connection with the annual accounts, the Group has reviewed its accounting for equity interests with regards to the interest in the joint venture Skiab Invest AB, for which the equity method is used. IAS 28 requires an entity to apply the same accounting policies for similar transactions that it applies when recognising its interest in a joint venture. Based on this, adjustments may need to be made to the financial statements of the joint venture in which the interest is being held and which are used for reporting purposes. In the SkiStar Group, the owned properties are classified as owner-occupied properties, which means that they are reported at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment. Since the properties in Skiab Invest are used by the SkiStar Group for its own operations, the assessment has been made, in order to meet the requirements of IAS 28, that these properties should also be reported as owner-occupied properties. As Skiab Invest recognises its properties at fair value, SkiStar has decided to make the required adjustments in applying the equity method for this holding as at 31 August 2024. In accordance with IAS 8 and the error correction approach described therein, the comparative amounts and opening balances have been restated, see note 5 for details and amounts. The entire effect on the profit/loss due to the restatement is accounted for in the profit/loss in the fourth quarter of 2023/24. For further details see the Annual Report for the year ended 31 August 2024.

Not 4 Financial instruments at fair value

Derivatives measured at fair value refer to electricity futures and interest rate swaps. The fair value of electricity futures is based on current futures prices on the electricity market for the corresponding maturities. The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the value of future cash flows discounted at current market rates. The Company's existing derivative assets and liabilities are all within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. For other financial assets and liabilities, the carrying amount is considered a reasonable approximation of fair value.

Note 5 Adjustment of prior year comparables after restatement of investment in joint venture company Skiab-Invest

DEFINITIONS

The Company presents certain financial measures in this interim report that are not defined in accordance with IFRS. The company considers these measures to be valuable complementary information for investors and the Company's management. Since not all companies calculate financial measures in the same way, they are not always comparable with measures used by other companies. Consequently, these financial measures should not be seen as a substitute for measures defined in accordance with IFRS. For more on the calculation of these key figures see: https://investor.skistar.com/en/finansiellt/

FINANCIAL DEFINITIONS

Average interest rate

Interest expenses, including interest rate swaps and excluding IFRS 16-related interest expenses, divided by average interest-bearing liabilities. The measure is used to show the interest rate paid by the Group on its interest-bearing liabilities.

Capital employed

Total assets less non-interest-bearing liabilities. The measure shows how much of the Company's assets have been lent by its owners or by lenders.

Cash flow per share

Cash flow from operating activities divided by the average number of shares. The measure is used to make it easy for investors to analyse the amount of surplus from operating activities generated per share that can be used to finance new investments, repayments and dividends, and to assess the need for new external financing.

Diluted earnings per share

Profit/loss after tax for the period attributable to Parent Company shareholders adjusted for interest expenses on convertible debt, divided by the number of shares after full conversion of convertibles subscribed for. The measure shows how much profit per share the Group generates for its shareholders after full conversion of convertibles subscribed for.

Earnings per share

Profit/loss after tax for the period attributable to Parent Company shareholders divided by the average number of shares. The measure shows how much profit per share the Group generates for its shareholders.

EBITDA excluding IFRS16

Operating profit plus depreciation/amotisation and adjusted for the effect of IFRS16 Leasing.

Equity/assets ratio

Equity as a percentage of total assets. This measure is used to analyse financial risk and shows the proportion of assets financed with equity.

Equity/assets ratio excluding IFRS16

Equity as a percentage of total assets, adjusted for the effect of IFRS16 Leasing. This measure is used to analyse financial risk and shows the proportion of assets financed with equity less the effect of IFRS16.

Equity per share

Equity divided by the average number of shares for the reporting period. The measure shows how much equity is attributable to each share and is presented to facilitate investors' analyses and decisions.

Gross investments

New investments and replacement investments in non-current assets. The measure is relevant in showing the overall size of the investments made to maintain existing capacity and create growth.

Interest-bearing liabilities

Current and non-current liabilities to credit institutions, provisions for pensions, lease liabilities and items in other current liabilities that are interest-bearing.

Interest-bearing net debt

Interest-bearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents.

Interest-bearing net debt excluding IFRS16

Interest-bearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents adjusted for IFRS16 leasing debt.

Interest-bearing net debt/EBITDA, excluding IFRS16, 12 M

Interest-bearing net debt in relation to EBITDA, last twelve months, exclusive the effect of IFRS16 leasing debt. The measure gives an estimation of the Companys' ability to reduce its debt. It represents the number of years it would take to repay the debt if the net debt and EBITDA remain constant, without regard to cashflow in respect of interest rates, tax and invetments. This measure is one of the Companys' financial goals and should over a period not exceed 2.5 times.

Net investments

New investments and replacement investments in non-current assets less sales of these investments. The measure is relevant in showing the total amount from the Group's investing activities.

Operating margin

Operating profit/loss after depreciation/ amortisation as a percentage of revenue. The measure is used to show the profitability of operating activities by indicating the percentage of revenue that remains to cover interest and tax and to provide profit, after the Company's ongoing costs have been paid.

Operating profit/loss (EBIT)

Revenue less merchandise costs, personnel costs, other operating expenses, depreciation and amortisation, plus profit/loss from joint ventures/associates. The measure is used to analyse the profitability generated by operating activities.

Organic growth

Revenue adjusted for acquisitions and currency effects compared with the same period in the previous year. An acquired company is classified as an acquisition in the twelve months from the date of acquisition. Only after this period is the company included in the measurement of organic growth. The measure is used to show underlying revenue growth.

Return on capital employed, 12 M

Profit before tax plus net financial costs, last twelve months, as a percentage of average capital employed in comparable period (sum of capital employed at the opening and the closing of the period, divided by two). The measure shows the Group's profitability in relation to externally financed capital and equity.

Share price/cash flow

Share price at the reporting date divided by cash flow from operating activities. The measure shows the value of the share compared with the value the Group has generated in cash flow from operating activities.

Share price/equity ratio

Share price at the reporting date divided by equity per share. The measure shows the value of the share compared with the value recognised by the Group in its statement of financial position.

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 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 is substantially less in scope than 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. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion

Conclusion

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, regarding the Group, and with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Parent Company.
