EBITDA Q4 2010

2,488 SEK million

Offering the Best Deal is our business

In 2010, we were successful by all our measures. Group revenue increased by 2 percent to SEK 40.2 billion, while EBITDA margin expanded to 26 (24) percent. Adjusted for currency movement revenue increased by 6 percent. Tele2 Russia exceeded 18 million customers and our new regions started to reach profitability; Tele2's value conscious customers began to benefit from the availability of more affordable smart phone handsets; we improved our handset portfolio in Sweden for the new mass market; we acquired BBned, strengthening our position and commitment as a serious long-term player to the Netherlands; lastly, Tele2 Croatia attained EBITDA break-even. Another significant milestone passed during 2010 was the 30 million customer mark and our customer base increased by 16 percent in 2010. We are proud of these results; however we are never satisfied at Tele2. That is why we look forward to making 2011 even more successful.

Nordic

In the Nordic region, the continued uptake of smartphones boosted our mobile data revenues and equipment sales. In Q4 2010, seven out of ten postpaid customers in Sweden bought a smart phone, the majority opting for a data subscription too. This development is expected to continue; we can see a greater selection of attractively priced handsets to address the prepaid market with smartphones.

During the quarter, we launched 4G services in the five major cities in Sweden. Roll-out progresses according to plan and we expect to cover more than 100 cities by year end 2011. However, we will not stop there as we will have 99 percent population coverage in 2012. We believe that 4G can provide a substitute for fixed broadband and that Tele2 will be the enabler for consumers to cut the cord.

Through the integration of Spring Mobil, Tele2 Sweden has strengthened its capabilities in the business segment. Our ambition is to grow our market share in 2011.

Tele2 Norway had a strong quarter and clawed back its price leadership position from the competition. We must never jeopardize our main focus on price; therefore, the regained number one spot will be defended.

Russia

The customer net intake in the quarter was good, taking the total customer base to 18.4 million. This surely represented a great year, as Tele2 welcomed 4 million new members in Russia. We have been able to combine a swift expansion in our 37 regions with a record high full year EBITDA contribution to the group, to the extent that Russia became our most important market area in 2010.

However, competition is increasing in the market, which means that we must stay innovative to ensure that we stand out from the crowd when it comes to our offerings. We are confident that the Best Deal will take us pass the 20 million customer mark in 2011.

Preparing ourselves for a more data centric future, be it either through data licenses or technology neutral regulation, we will continue to look for opportunities to expand our existing footprint. Our performance shows us that it makes sense to aim for greater operational leverage. In 2011, new 2G licenses will be awarded, a process in which Tele2 will take an active part.

Central Europe & Eurasia

The economies of the Baltic region continued to recover during the quarter, resulting in a more stable operational development for Tele2 despite a tough competitive environment. We have seen customer activity increase further during the quarter, which indisputably is a positive sign. However, spending on telecom services is still to grow.

Our goal is to reach cash-flow break even in our Croatian operations during 2011, we push ahead by further enhancing our network quality and capabilities, and by developing our product portfolio with even more attractive offerings.

During the quarter, we focused on improving our distribution network in Kazakhstan, which brought about a positive step change for customer net intake. The roll-out of the 2G and 3G enabled network is developing according to our business plan and we look forward to introducing the Tele2 brand to all mobile users in the country soon.

Western Europe

In Q4 2010, Tele2 closed the acquisition of the Dutch operator BBned. As a result Tele2 has increased its revenue and market share in the business segments. The demand for Tele2's triple play offering, including TV, continued and exceeded demand for dual-play offerings. Consequently, the ARPU of the broadband base continued to improve, which enhanced the financial contributions of revenue and EBITDA compared with the previous year and quarter.

Tele2 Austria remained focused on growth within the business segment by providing a superior customer experience at low price. We believe that a more concentrated product portfolio will make us more competitive and as a result lead to improved performance in our Austrian operations over time.

Tele2 is performing well. The key success factor that drives our company steadily forward is our unique corporate culture born of the people that live and maintain it. Tele2 has always been and will keep being a fast-moving challenger. It is vital for our future achievements that we keep this mindset.

Going forward our strategy is simple – Tele2 always offers the best deal.

Mats Granryd President and CEO, Tele2 AB

Financial Overview

Tele2's financial performance is driven by its relentless focus on developing mobile services on its own infrastructure, complemented in certain countries by fixed broadband services and businessto-business offerings. Mobile sales, which grew compared with the same period last year, and a greater focus on mobile services on own infrastructure have further improved Tele2's EBITDA margin. The company will concentrate on maximizing the return from fixed-line operations as their customer base continues to decline.

Net customer intake amounted to 803,000 (887,000) in Q4 2010 including the acquisition of BBned. The customer intake in mobile services amounted to 859,000 (1,045,000), of which 9,000 (25,000) were mobile internet users. This result was mainly driven by a solid performance in Tele2 Russia, Tele2 Sweden and Tele2 in Kazakhstan. During the period, Tele2 Russia's customer base grew by 755,000 (1,149,000) customers, of which 446,000 (944,000) were derived from new regions. Fixed broadband customer intake amounted to 10,000 (–10,000) customers in Q4 2010, primarily attributable to Tele2's operation in Sweden. As expected, the number of fixed telephony customers fell in Q4 2010. On December 31, 2010 the total customer base amounted to 30,883,000 (26,579,000) thanks to a prolonged success in mobile services.

Net sales including one-off items1) amounted to SEK 10,109 (9,953) million in Q4 2010.The revenue development was mainly a result of sustained success in mobile services, offset to some extent by negative sales development in fixed telephony. Exchange rate differences impacted net sales by SEK –785 million in the quarter compared to the same period last year.

EBITDA in Q4 2010 amounted to SEK 2,488 (2,263) million, equivalent to an EBITDA margin of 25 (23) percent. The EBITDA development was positively affected by better-than-expected operational progress in Tele2's Russian and Croatian mobile operations, coupled with improved result in fixed broadband services. Exchange rate differences impacted EBITDA by SEK –201 million in the quarter compared to the same period last year.

EBIT in Q4 2010 amounted to SEK 1,513 (1,375) million excluding one-off items of SEK –157 (–64) million2). Including one-off items, EBIT amounted to SEK 1,356 (1,311) million.

Profit before tax Q4 2010 amounted to SEK 1,201 (1,187) million.

Net profit in Q4 2010 amounted to SEK 1,099 (920) million in the quarter. Reported tax for Q4 2010 amounted to SEK –102 (–267) million, including valuation of deferred tax assets and other one-off items during the quarter of SEK 175 million3). Tax payment affecting cash flow amounted to SEK –160 (–205) million.

Cash flow after Capex in Q4 2010 amounted to SEK 614 (1,653) million.

CAPEX in Q4 2010 amounted to SEK 1,320 (1,017) million.

Net debt amounted to SEK 1,691 (2,171) million on December 31, 2010, or 0.16 times full-year 2010 EBITDA. Including guarantees to joint ventures, the net debt to full-year 2010 EBITDA amounted to 0.33 times. Tele2's available liquidity amounted to SEK 12,814 (12,410) million. On December 31, 2010 the 3-year syndicated loan facility was drawn in SEK. The facility allows a ratio of net liabilities (including external guarantees)/EBITDA for the Group of up to 3.0. The facility is also conditioned by an interest expense coverage ratio to be fulfilled. In December 2010, Tele2 has agreed with the lenders to prolong the maturity of the facility from February 2012 to February 2013.

In respect of the financial year 2010, the Board of Tele2 AB has decided to recommend to the Annual General Meeting (AGM) in May 2011, a total dividend payment of SEK 27.00 (5.85) per ordinary A or B share, to be comprised of an ordinary dividend of SEK 6.00 (3.85) and an extraordinary dividend of SEK 21.00 (2.00).

Balance sheet

Tele2 has a target net debt to EBITDA ratio of between 1.25 and 1.75 times over the medium term. The company's longer term financial leverage should be in line with the industry and the markets in which it operates and reflect the status of its operations, future strategic opportunities and contingent liabilities.

Overview by region

Nordic

The Nordic market area delivers strong cash-flow to the Tele2 Group and is the test bed for new services.

Sweden

Mobile In Q4 2010, Tele2 Sweden delivered a record high revenue growth with net sales increasing by 12 percent to SEK 2,241 (2,002) million. Tele2 Sweden had a strong growth in the mobile postpaid segment and added 65,000 (51,000) mobile voice and mobile internet customers in the fourth quarter. The revenue growth was driven by a solid intake in the postpaid segment, to which smartphones greatly contributed, combined with increased usage of data as well as Minutes of Use. Tele2 Sweden achieved a total mobile net intake of 20,000 (20,000) customers due to seasonally high churn in the prepaid base.

The smartphone trend that could be observed in the Swedish market in previous quarters persisted. In Q4 2010, inexpensive smartphones were introduced to the market and became more available to Tele2's customers in both the postpaid and prepaid segments.

Tele2 Sweden added 20,000 (15,000) mobile internet customers in the postpaid segment during the quarter. In total, Tele2 Sweden added 3,000 (13,000) mobile internet customers due to seasonally high churn in the prepaid base. As a result, Tele2 Sweden achieved a mobile internet customer base of 361,000 (274,000). Moreover, improved price plans and increased usage contributed to growing mobile internet ARPU to 128 (117) SEK.

Tele2 Sweden had an EBITDA margin of 30 (33) percent in the quarter. As a result, Tele2 Sweden achieved an EBITDA margin of 33 (34) percent for 2010. The decrease is mainly due to higher expansion costs when acquiring postpaid customers with smartphones and customer operation costs meant to increase quality in all touch points. The EBITDA-margin includes costs associated with the SUNAB and Net4Mobility joint venture. Total costs for SUNAB and Net4Mobility amounted to SEK –134 (–105) million in Q4 2010. The mobile operations in Sweden reported a MoU of 245 (235) and a blended ARPU of SEK 183 (181).

In Q4 2010, MoU increased to 295 (283) in the postpaid segment and ARPU was stable at SEK 234 (232). In the prepaid voice segment, Tele2 Sweden defended its market-leading position and delivered an EBITDA margin of 52 (51) percent.

In the fourth quarter Tele2 Sweden commercially launched 4G offers to the consumer and business customers, while the roll-out continued at a rapid pace all over the country. Faster mobile connections allow the customers to do everything they are used to via the fixed ADSL connection but over the mobile 4G network. Furthermore, Tele2 Sweden kept pushing sales activities for the latest product Home telephony via the mobile network. This product enables the customer to keep the home phone but over the mobile network, a simple and cost effective solution for all parties.

In the business segment the continued focus on integrated services led to the acquisition of a number of customers for whom the product Communication as a Service was especially important. The customer segmentation within the business segment generated an increased net sales and ARPU development during the quarter and the customer base continued to grow as the domestic economy strengthened.

Fixed Broadband In Q4 2010, Tele2 Sweden experienced strong ADSL, VoIP, LAN and Citylink sales, which resulted in an increased customer intake of 18,000 (1,000).

Fixed Telephony Despite a continued decrease in demand for

fixed telephony services, Tele2 Sweden increased its EBITDA margin to 23 (20) percent during the fourth quarter.

Norway

Tele2 Norway FY 2010 net sales decreased by –8 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales decreased by –6 percent. Net sales in Q4 2010 decreased by –6 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales increased by 1 percent.

Mobile Tele2 Norway delivered revenue of SEK 647 (667) million. The revenue development originated from a good customer intake within the mobile segment, as Tele2 Norway added 10,000 (3,000) customers despite strong competition in the marketplace. However, exchange rate and termination rates impacted the overall revenue negatively compared to the same period last year. When measured in local currency, revenue showed a growth by 5 percent. Tele2 Norway reached an EBITDA contribution of SEK 28 (46) million in Q4 2010. During the quarter, Mobile Norway, Tele2 Norway's joint venture with Network Norway, invoiced Tele2 Norway SEK –15 million for costs related to the roll-out of the third Norwegian network.

The EBIT result, SEK 12 (18) million, was negatively impacted by Tele2 Norway's share of the result from Mobile Norway in Q4 2010 of SEK –9 (–24) million.

Tele2 Norway kept delivering on the Best Deal focusing on strengthening its price position and increasing quality perception. The fierce competition within the post-paid segment persisted during the quarter. The business segment continued to progress positively during the quarter.

Fixed Telephony Fixed telephony showed a satisfying development of revenue and profitability, but a stronger SEK towards NOK had some negative repercussion in the fourth quarter. Fixed telephony had an EBITDA contribution of SEK 14 (20) million in Q4 2010. This was achieved through intensified efforts to bring costs down and keep improving the quality of the overall customer stock.

Russia

The Russian operation is Tele2's most significant growth engine. The company has GSM licenses in 37 regions covering approximately 61 million inhabitants.

Tele2 Russia FY 2010 net sales increased by 35 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales increased by 36 percent. Net sales in Q4 2010 increased by 24 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales increased by 32 percent.

Mobile Tele2 Russia's strategy is to have a balanced approach to rolling out new regions while maintaining a stable profitability in the more mature regions. The overall market's response in the quarter has been in line with the business plan. The total customer base grew by 755,000 (1,149,000), of which the new regions represented 446,000 (944,000) customers. Over the last 12 months, Tele2 Russia's customer base has grown by almost 4.0 million new users, proving that there is a solid demand for the company's services despite lower customer activity in the market and the introduction of 3G services by the competition.

The total customer base amounted to 18,438,000 (14,451,000) at the end of Q4 2010. The turnover of the total customer base was stable during the quarter despite increased competition. Tele2 Russia will maintain its effort to be best in class in customer retention and continue to work with commission structure to the retail channels to further enhance the quality of the customer intake.

Despite an impact from customer base growth in new regions with lower initial service usage, MoU for the total operations increased by 5 percent compared to Q4 2009, amounting to 238 (227). ARPU amounted to SEK 49 (51) or RUB 219 (216), in spite of a strong customer intake in new regions. The general pricing environment remained highly competitive throughout the Tele2 Russia footprint.

Tele2 Russia continued to deliver good financial performance. The EBITDA margin development was robust, driven by stable operational trends in the more mature regions and early scale benefits in the new regions. EBITDA in the mature regions amounted to SEK 939 (889) million, equivalent to a margin of 44 (45) percent. EBITDA in the new regions amounted to SEK –40 (–194) million. Capex in the quarter amounted to SEK 632 (441) million. The investment level is expected to increase in 2011.

Tele2 Russia will keep looking for possibilities to carefully expand its operations through new licenses as well as by complementary acquisitions.

Central Europe and Eurasia

Tele2's Baltic operations will remain focused on generating a strong cash flow contribution as the economy in the region stabilizes. Tele2's Croatian operation is a strong challenger as it offers the Best Deal in both mobile telephony and mobile internet. Tele2's Kazakhstan operation is the latest growth opportunity for the market area.

Estonia

Tele2 Estonia FY 2010 net sales decreased by –13 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales decreased by –3 percent. Net sales in Q4 2010 decreased by –8 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales increased by 3 percent.

Mobile In the fourth quarter, the Estonian economy continued to recover. However, the situation remained challenging. Customer confidence being still relatively weak, the telecoms spending did not grow compared to last year.

In spite of this challenging context, Tele2 Estonia managed to maintain a solid price position and stable market share, while improving quality perception on the market. Tele2's revenues in local currency increased by 3 percent compared to Q4 2009, mainly driven by hardware sales and evolving mobile internet business.

Tele2 continued to roll out its HSPA-enabled 3G network in rural areas and by the end of 2010 Tele2's 3G network reached more than 1 million people in Estonia, covering 60 percent of the territory. The expansion of the 3G network will enable Tele2 to offer the best priced mobile internet services for larger customer segments. Mobile internet has been the fastest growing segment throughout the year.

At the end of the quarter, Tele2 was awarded a 4G (2.6 MHz) license.

Lithuania

Tele2 Lithuania FY 2010 net sales decreased by –22 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales decreased by –13 percent. Net sales in Q4 2010 decreased by –20 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales decreased by –10 percent. Mobile The Lithuanian economy further stabilized during Q4 2010 and GDP is projected to slowly grow in 2011.

During the fourth quarter, Tele2 Lithuania continued to expand its market share both in the postpaid consumer and business segments and added 43,000 (6,000) new customers. Total customer intake

amounted to 1,000 (–60,000) due to seasonally high churn in the prepaid segment. Mobile internet sales also increased steadily in the fourth quarter. Tough price competition persisted into Q4 2010, affecting the ARPU level negatively. Reduced capital expenditures improved the cash flow contribution during the quarter.

Tele2 Lithuania will keep focusing on growing its market share in the business segment, benefiting from general price sensitivity among private companies and state-owned organizations. Furthermore, Tele2 will capitalize on the broadband sales growth momentum in 2011.

In Q4 2010 Tele2 Lithuania announced that it sold its Lithuania cable operation for approximately SEK 40 million.

Latvia

Tele2 Latvia FY 2010 net sales decreased by –22 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales decreased by –13 percent. Net sales in Q4 2010 decreased by –18 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales decreased by –8 percent.

Mobile Throughout Q4 2010, customer activity in Latvia continued to increase, indicating that the economic climate has stabilized. Higher customer activity on the Latvian market resulted inTele2's best quarter concerning mobile handset sales and web sales volumes. Likewise, sales of mobile internet services proved to be good during the quarter.

Nevertheless, Q4 2010 was still marked by strong price pressure and intense competition across all customer segments.

During Q4 2010, Tele2 Latvia continued to focus on customer satisfaction, price leadership and service quality to meet customer needs, thereby introducing new web self-care channels. On the network side, Tele2 Latvia worked steadily on strengthening infrastructure in terms of coverage, capacity, performance and development of 3G capabilities. New feederless base station technologies were introduced during the quarter, which will contribute to decreasing costs.

Tele2 Latvia will keep maintaining its price leadership position and concentrate its efforts on increasing market share in the postpaid and business customer segments, while defending its position in prepaid. By doing so, Tele2 aims to hold its best deal position on the market.

Croatia

Tele2 Croatia FY 2010 net sales increased by 4 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales increased by 15 percent. Net sales in Q4 2010 decreased by –3 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales increased by 10 percent.

Mobile The improved EBITDA contribution was driven by a continued momentum in growing domestic revenue market share within the Croatian market. With the launch of its 21Mbps network, Tele2 Croatia is poised to be one of the leading mobile data service providers in the country, thereby increasing quality perception and overall customer satisfaction. Gross margins have improved with the continued rollout of own network infrastructure, reducing Tele2 Croatia's dependency on National roaming.

The customer base has now reached 738,000 (598,000) customers. Despite seasonal increase in prepaid churn resulting from its Q3 2010 visiting customers, Tele2 Croatia had a very successful Christmas marketing campaign which was the key driver in maintaining a positive net customer growth performance in Q4 2010.

Kazakhstan

Mobile Tele2 in Kazakhstan continued to prepare for the launch of the Tele2 brand planned for 1H of 2011. In that respect, the main activities consisted in swapping out the old equipment and in rolling out the new 2G and 3G enabled network. Tele2 in Kazakhstan also worked intensively on establishing good relationships with the regional distributors and on widening its distributor network throughout the country to support massive growth after the launch.

114 000 new customers were added to Tele2 in Kazakhstan's customer base during the quarter, as a result of intensified efforts in the field of distribution, marketing and sales activities.

The company has managed to negotiate interconnect rate cuts with the two largest competitors. The support from the Ministry of communications and Antimonopoly committee was very helpful in this process. Tele2 in Kazakhstan will continue to negotiate even lower Mobile Termination Rates in 2011 and 2012.

Western Europe

Tele2's operations in Western Europe lead the Group in business to business services and consumer fixed broadband.

Netherlands

On October 5, 2010, Tele2 closed the acquisition of the Dutch operator BBned for SEK 462 million. BBned primarily provides broadband telecommunication services in the consumer, business and wholesale segments. As a result of the acquisition, Tele2 was able to increase its revenue and market share, adding 64,000 consumer and 11,000 business broadband customers to its base. During Q4 2010, BBned conducted a reorganization, which impacted the EBITDA negatively due to a provision for severance payments.

Tele2 Netherlands FY 2010 net sales decreased by –12 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales decreased by –2 percent. Net sales in Q4 2010 decreased by –1 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales increased by 11 percent.

Mobile During Q4 2010, Tele2 Netherlands continued to focus on post-paid offerings. Although the total mobile base declined, the focus on postpaid subscriptions enabled Tele2 Netherlands to improve its overall margin levels for the full year and in the fourth quarter in particular.

Fixed Broadband The demand for Tele2's triple play offering, including TV, persisted and proved to outweigh the demand for dualplay offerings. As a result, the ARPU of the broadband base kept improving, which enhanced the financial contribution in terms of revenue and EBITDA compared to the previous year and quarter. Despite the competitive pressure from cable operators and the fact that the regulation of OPTA to enable competitors to resell analogue cable service was overthrown by the relevant court, the broadband base remained stable.

Tele2 Netherlands continued to successfully prolong existing customer contracts and to acquire new customers. Furthermore, the company completed the delivery of some large fixed data networks for newly acquired customers. However, the business segment should be considered as a highly competitive market, in which prices are currently under pressure.

Fixed Telephony The fixed telephony market kept declining in favour of bundled broadband offerings. Tele2 Netherlands continued its efforts to up- and cross-sell its own bundled offerings to its fixed telephony customer base.

Germany

Tele2 Germany FY 2010 net sales decreased by –30 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales decreased by –23 percent. Net sales in Q4 2010 decreased by –28 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales decreased by –19 percent.

Fixed Broadband net growth remained on a low level, continuing to show signs of market saturation. The incumbents and cable operators applied promotional pricing activities, whereas Tele2 Germany continued focusing on profitability rather than market share and customer retention rather than customer acquisition. With its retention strategy, the company once more succeeded in stabilizing the customer base during the quarter.

Towards the end of Q4 2010, Tele2 sold its shares in Plusnet and got an early termination of the Joint Venture. Tele2 will continue to sell its broadband services based on a wholesale agreement which gives Tele2 more flexibility as well as more favourable commercial conditions. As a result of the transaction, the broadband operation will have a positive EBITDA contribution in 2011.

Fixed Telephony Tele2 Germany remained the largest CPS (Carrier-Pre-Selection) provider in the market with a market share of over 40 percent. By sticking to its customer retention strategy, the customer base developed significantly above plan with continuously decreasing churn rates. The EBITDA margin for fixed line in Q4 2010 was at 42 (34) percent. The company`s cross-selling activities developed positively. Whilst the CPS market moved relatively slowly, Tele2 Germany successfully launched a new call by call prefix to better address the remaining narrowband market.

Austria

Austria continued to report a healthy financial performance in the last quarter of 2010. Likewise, the full year profitability showed an improvement of the EBITDA margin, which increased from 17 percent in 2009 to 21 percent in 2010. For the top line development, Tele2 Austria kept emphasizing its focus on growth within the business segment by providing the business community with a superior customer experience at low price.

Tele2 Austria FY 2010 net sales decreased by –20 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales decreased by –11 percent. Net sales in Q4 2010 decreased by –22 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for currency movement net sales decreased by –12 percent.

Fixed Broadband During Q4 2010, Tele2 Austria was able to gain market shares in the business segment from competition over all product lines. More particularly, data network services showed healthy revenue development. In addition, the customer satisfaction in Tele2 Austria's business segment improved in the quarter. Quite importantly, Tele2 Austria scored higher than the customer satisfaction scores of its main competitors. In the residential segment, Tele2 Austria focused on retaining its customer base by emphasising a value based segmentation through retention campaigns and by following a churn prediction model.

Fixed Telephony In the business segment, the voice revenue was still in decline during the quarter, mainly due to less usage and lower prices. Despite market pressure from the incumbent, the business customer churn was lower than predicted. Additionally, the share of residential and SME customers on contracts increased significantly through cross- and up selling of new voice packages within the CPS customer base.

Other Items

Risks and uncertainty factors

Tele2's operations are affected by a number of external factors. The risk factors considered to be most significant to Tele2's future development are operating risks such as the availability of frequencies and other telecom licenses, operations in Russia and Kazakhstan, network sharing with other parties, integration of new business models, changes in regulatory legislation, legal proceedings, economic climate and financial risks such as currency risk, interest risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. In addition to the risks described in Tele2's annual report for 2009 (see Directors' report and Note 2 of the report for a detailed description of Tele2's risk exposure and risk management), no additional significant risks are estimated to have developed.

Review Report Introduction

We have reviewed the interim report for Tele2 AB (publ) for the period January 1–December 31, 2010. The Board of Directors and the President are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this full year report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this full year report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SÖG) 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 focus and is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing in Sweden RS and other generally accepted auditing practices in Sweden. 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 conclusion expressed based on a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed based on an audit.

Conclusion

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

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND DEFINITIONS

For the Group, the interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, and for the parent company in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board recommendation RFR 2 Reporting for legal entities and its statements (December 2010).

From Q4 2010, with prospective effect, revenues from customer agreements including the delivery of mobile phones or other equipment without the debit of any specific enhanced subscription fees are allocated to the individual components in the agreement. Before, they were recognized when the total service was provided (for additional information please refers to the 2009 Annual Report). The changed principle means that revenues that can be allocated to the equipment are recognized at the delivery of the equipment to the customer and revenues from other subscription charges are recognized in the period covered by the charge. Prior periods have not been restated since it is impracticable to determine the effect on these.

During Q4 2010, with retroactive effect, Datametrix Integration has been transferred to segment Sweden. In addition adjustment has been made retroactively in segment Other from net sales to other operating income. For additional information please refer to Note 13 and Note 14 respectively.

From Q3 2010, with retroactive effect, the international carrier business is reported in the segment Other. For additional information please refer to Note 12.

In segment Sweden from January 1, 2010 sales with enhanced subscriptions fees are regarded as instalment payments and the accounting of revenues has been adjusted accordingly. Previous periods have been recalculated. For additional information please refer to Note 11.

From Q1 2010, with retroactive effect, the internal sale between mobile and fixed broadband/telephony is reported in segment Sweden. For additional information please refer to Note 10.

Revised IFRS 3 and IAS 27 concerning business acquisition

In the revised IFRS 3, all acquisition related costs (transaction costs) are to be recognized as expenses in the period in which they arise, and shall no longer be capitalized as a part of the acquisition value for the acquired business. Also the definition of a business combination has been clarified.

The revised IFRS 3 also allows the use of the so called full goodwill method. This means that the minority interest and goodwill are reported at fair value at the time of acquisition.

According to the revised IFRS 3 a conditional purchase price shall be reported, both initially as well as in the following periods, at fair value with any subsequent revaluation to be reported in the income statement. Previously a provision for conditional purchase price was initially reported at a value that corresponded to the company's best estimate of the likely outcome. Subsequent changes in the provision, except for the discount effect, were reported against goodwill.

The revised IFRS 3 standard effects acquisitions of a controlling interest in a company where Tele2 already holds an equity interest. The revised accounting standard requires Tele2 to adjust the carrying value of the previously held equity interest to fair value at acquisition. Any gain or loss shall be recorded in the income statement. The revised IFRS 3 standard is applied prospectively.

The revised IAS 27 clarifies that changes in a parent company's share in the subsidiary, where the parent company retains the control, shall be reported as a transaction within equity. This means that these types of changes shall not result in recognition of profit or loss in the income statement. Nor shall the transaction cause any changes of the subsidiary's net assets (including goodwill). The previous standard gave no guidance on how changes in the parent company's participating interest should be accounted for. The revised standard is applied prospectively and will result in changes compared to the previous principles.

Choice of accounting principle for put options

When choosing and applying its accounting principles, Tele2 has chosen the following principle for reporting of put options in connection with business combinations, where put options give the minority owner a right to sell its shares or part of its shares to Tele2 in a company in which Tele2 is the majority stockholder. The chosen method means that initially, at the business combination, a minority interest is recognized. This minority interest is then immediately reclassified as a financial liability. The financial liability is recognized at its fair value at each reporting date, with the changes reported within financial items in profit or loss.

An alternative method, not chosen by Tele2, would be to report both a minority interest and a financial liability with opposite booking of the liability initially directly to shareholders' equity and the following changes in the liability's fair value reported in profit and loss. Another additional alternative is to on a current basis report a minority interest which is reclassified as a financial liability at each reporting period. The difference between the reclassified minority interest and the fair value of the financial liability is reported as a change of the minority interest within equity.

Other new and amended IFRS standards and IFRIC interpretations

The other new or amended IFRS standards and IFRIC interpretations, which became effective January 1, 2010, have had no material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Tele2 has, in all other respects, presented its interim report in accordance with the accounting principles and calculation methods used in the 2009 Annual Report. Definitions are found in the 2009 Annual Report.

NOTE 1 Net sales

In Q3 2010, net sales in Estonia have been decreased by SEK 18 million related to the settlement of a court dispute regarding excessive mobile termination fees during the years 2006-2007.

In Q2 2010, net sales and cash flow in Germany has been increased by SEK 588 million due to a reached settlement with Deutsche Telekom regarding several legal disputes dated back to 2003 (e.g. regarding verbal ordering procedures). The positive effect has been reported as a one-off item. Income tax regarding this settlement has affected the income statement negatively in Q2 2010 with SEK 73 million.

In Q4 2009 Tele2 made a settlement with TeliaSonera related to interconnect disputes, and the solved dispute affected the cash flow positively by SEK 340 million and the interest income by SEK 60 million, but did not affect EBIT. In addition an interest cost has affected Q2 2010 negatively by SEK 43 million.

In Q3 2009, net sales in segment Other were increased by SEK 76 million related to a settlement with another operator. The positive effect was reported as a one-off item.

In Q2 2009, net sales in Sweden were decreased by SEK 59 million related to the revaluation of reserves. The negative effect was reported as a one-off item.

NOTE 2 Operating and financial expenses

In Q4 2010 the USD 220 million bond issued on the US market has been repaid, which resulted in a termination fee of SEK 116 million reported as interest expense.

In Q2 2010 Sweden has been negatively affected by SEK 51 million, due to the ruling from the Administrative Court of Appeal in June 2010 regarding price on whole and split copper cable. The negative effect has been reported as a one-off item.

Due to telecom regulatory changes Netherlands has in Q2 2010 been positively affected by SEK 79 million mainly in the fixed broadband and fixed telephony business.

In Q1 2010 segment Other has been negatively affected with SEK 22 million associated with termination payment, including pension costs and social security cost, to former President and CEO Harri Koponen.

NOTE 4 Taxes

In Q4 2010 net taxes were positively affected by SEK 175 million as a result of a valuation of deferred tax assets in Germany.

In Q3 2010 net taxes were positively affected by SEK 1,049 (1,071) million as a result of a valuation of deferred tax assets related to holding companies in Luxembourg of SEK 895 (1,071) million and for Netherlands of SEK 154 million.

In Q3 2009 Tele2 Sweden received a negative tax ruling, mainly regarding a deduction for contribution to its subsidiary Tele2 Norway for the write off of an MVNO-agreement. The declined deductions affected the tax cost negatively by SEK 209 million in Q3 2009, but had no cash flow effects.

In Q1 2009 SEK 186 million as well as SEK 10 million were expensed regarding the S.E.C. dispute and other tax disputes respectively. Total tax and interest paid in Q1 2009, related to tax disputes, amounted to

SEK 395 million out of which SEK 163 million was already provisioned for in 2005. The tax dispute is presented in Note 15 of the 2009 Annual Report.

At January 21, 2011 the Administrative Court of Appeal has approved Tele2's claim for a deduction of a capital loss of SEK 13.3 billion (tax effect of SEK 4,354 million including interest), which was associated with the liquidation of SEC SA in 2001. The decision by the Administrative Court of Appeal will not lead to reduced tax payments since the capital loss has been deducted against earlier years' profits.

Tele2 is the defendant in an arbitration regarding a dispute relating to a Share Option Agreement and related issues where the claimant has put forward claims of USD 38 (SEK 258) million. We estimate that the arbitration award will be announced during the second half of 2011. Based on current information, our assessment is that it is more likely than not that we will win.

Additional contractual commitments and liabilities related to joint ventures are stated in Note 31 and Note 32 in the Annual Report for 2009.

NOTE 6 Transactions with related parties

Apart from transactions with Transcom and joint ventures no other significant related party transactions have been carried out during 2010. Related parties are presented in Note 39 of the 2009 Annual Report.

This corresponds to a total of SEK 2,580 million, of which ordinary dividend SEK 1,698 million and extraordinary dividend SEK 882 million.

NEW SHARE ISSUE, CANCELLATION AND REPURCHASE OF SHARES

As a result of 1,153,000 and 944,000 stock options in the incentive program 2007-2010/2012 being exercised during Q3-Q4 2010 respectively, Tele2 has sold shares in own custody of 1,153,000 and 944,000 resulting in an increase of shareholders' equity of SEK 141 and 115 million respectively.

As a result of 20,000, 557,000 and 207,000 stock options in the incentive program 2006-2009/2011 being exercised during Q1-Q3 2010 respectively, Tele2 has issued new shares resulting in an increase of shareholders' equity of SEK 2, 53 and 19 million respectively.

RECLASSIFICATION

In Q1 and Q3 2010, 4,140,326 and 1,520 class A shares have been reclassified into class B shares in Tele2.

In order to ensure delivery of shares under the incentive program 2007-2010/2012 Tele2 has, in Q2 2010, reclassified 2,529,000 Class C shares to Class B shares.

INCENTIVE PROGRAM 2010

The Annual General Meeting on May 17, 2010, approved an incentive programme for allocation to senior executives and other key employees in the Tele2 Group.

The incentive program (the Plan) includes a total of 142 senior executives and other key employees within the Tele2 Group. The participants in the Plan are required to own shares in Tele2. These shares could either be shares already held or shares purchased on the market in connection with notification to participate in the Plan. Thereafter the participants were granted, free of charge, retention rights and performance rights on the terms stipulated below.

For each share under the Plan, the participants will be granted retention rights and performance rights by the company. Subject to fulfilment of certain retention and performance based conditions during the period April 1, 2010 - March 31, 2013 (the measure period), the participant maintaining the employment within the Tele2 Group at the date of the release of the interim report January - March 2013 and subject to the participant maintaining the invested shares, each right entitles the employee to receive one Class B share in the company. Dividends paid on the underlying share will increase the number of retention and performance shares being allotted in order to treat the shareholders and the participants equally. The participant's maximum profit per right in the Plan is limited to SEK 529, five times the average closing share price of the Tele2 Class B shares during February 2010 (SEK 105.90).

The rights are divided into Series A rights retention shares, Series B rights performance shares and Series C rights performance shares. The shares to be received by the employee depend on the fulfilment of certain defined retention and performance based conditions during the Measure Period as follows:

  • Series A rights Tele2's total shareholder return (TSR) on the Tele2 shares, with a minimum hurdle exceeding 0 percent during the Measure Period.
  • Series B rights Average normalized return of capital employed (ROCE), with a minimum hurdle of 15 percent during the Measure Period and a stretch target of 18 percent.
  • Series C rights TSR compared with a peer group including Elisa, KPN, Millicom, Mobistar, MTS – Mobile Telesystems, Telenor, TeliaSonera, Turkcell and Vodafone during the Measure Period with TSR being better than the average TSR for the peer group as a minimum hurdle and TSR being 10 percentage points better than the average TSR for the peer group as a stretch target.

The determined levels of the retention and performance based conditions are minimum hurdle and stretch target with a linear interpolation applied between those levels. The minimum hurdle constitutes the minimum level which must be exceeded in order to enable exercise of the rights. If the minimum hurdle is not reached all respective rights to retention and performance shares in that series lapse. If a stretch target is met all retention rights and performance rights remain exercisable in that series. If the minimum hurdle is reached the number of rights exercisable will be 20 percent for the Series B and C rights and 100 percent for the A rights.

To ensure the delivery of Class B shares under the Plan, the Annual General Meeting decided that maximum 1,180,000 Class C shares held by the company after reclassification into Class B shares may be transferred to the participants under the Plan.

The Plan comprises a total number of 196,280 shares and the following number of rights for the different Groups: a) 8,000 shares and 7 rights (1 Series A, 3 Series B and 3 Series C) per invested share for the CEO, b) 32,000 shares and 6 rights (1 Series A, 2.5 Series B and 2.5 Series C) per invested share for other senior executives and other key employees (8 persons) and c) 156,280 shares and 4 rights (1 Series A, 1.5 Series B and 1.5 Series C) per invested share for other participants (133 persons).

ACQUISITIONS BBned, Netherlands

On October 5, 2010 Tele2 acquired 100 percent of the Dutch operator BBned for SEK 462 million. The acquisition has affected Tele2's net sales in the segment Netherlands year-to-date by SEK 197 million, EBITDA by SEK 12 million and net profit by SEK –48 million.

BBned is a provider of fixed telephony and broadband services in the Netherlands, active in retail, business and wholesale segment. BBned operates on the business market with its brand BBeyond and on the consumer market with its brands Alice and InterNLnet.

Goodwill in connection with the acquisition is related to Tele2's expectation that BBned will strengthen Tele2's position and improve Tele2's distribution in the Dutch market. Tele2 will benefit from the synergies that exist between Tele2 and BBned given the similarity between BBned's and Tele2's operations. Tele2's expectation is that the transaction will contribute positively to the company's growth opportunities.

Total acquisition costs of SEK 7 million have been reported in the income statement.

Spring Mobil, Sweden

On July 23, 2010 Tele2 acquired the remaining 50 percent of the shares in the Swedish company Spring Mobil for SEK 81 million. The acquisition has affected Tele2's net sales in the segment Sweden yearto-date by SEK 84 million, EBITDA by SEK 6 million and net profit by SEK 13 million including a positive effect of SEK 31 million described below.

As a result of Tele2 receiving controlling interest, by the acquisition, Spring Mobil is no longer reported according to the equity method but instead according to the purchase method. As described in the Accounting principles, a revised accounting standard requires Tele2 to adjust the previously held shares of 50 percent to fair value, as a result of the acquisition of additional shares, and report the difference in the income statement (result from shares in associated companies and joint ventures). Accordingly a positive effect has been reported in Q3 2010 of SEK 31 million. Fair value of the previously 50 percent owned shares has been based on the purchase price of the additional acquired shares.

Spring Mobil operates on the Swedish business market with socalled One Phone solutions. Goodwill in connection with the acquisition is related to Tele2's expectation that Spring Mobil complements Tele2's existing product portfolio and will improve Tele2's position in the corporate market. As a wholly owned subsidiary, Tele2 can fully benefit from the synergies that exist between Tele2 and Spring Mobil and the transaction will contribute positively to the company's growth opportunities.

Total acquisition costs of SEK 3 million have been reported in the income statement.

Kazakhstan

On March 17, 2010 Tele2 acquired 51 percent of mobile operator NEO in Kazakhstan for SEK 545 million. Tele2 has in addition committed to a capital injection of SEK 360 million, of which SEK 251 million has been paid by Tele2, and additional SEK 241 million by the minority owner. The acquisition has affected Tele2's net sales in the segment Kazakhstan year-to-date by SEK 119 million, EBITDA by SEK –173 million and net profit by SEK –538 million.

NEO operates a 900 MHz GSM license in Kazakhstan with a population of approximately 16.2 millions. Tele2 owns 51 percent of the shares with a call option to buy the remaining 49 percent from December 14, 2014. The other shareholder Asianet Holding B.V. has a put option to sell its shares to Tele2 from December 14, 2011. The exercise price of both options is the fair market value of the shares at the date of exercise.

Goodwill in connection with the acquisition was recognized in accordance with the so called full-goodwill method and is related to

CONT. notE 8

Tele2's expectations of strengthening this operation using its solid experience as a leading mobile challenger. The acquisition will provide the potential of synergies given the proximity and similarity of the Kazakhstan asset to other Tele2 operations as well as from the replication of Tele2's successful operational model, including the successful brand and product strategies used in the Russian market.

Total acquisition costs of SEK 35 million have been reported in the income statement, whereof SEK 29 million was reported in Q4 2009.

Rostov, Russia

In January 2010, Tele2 acquired the remaining 12.5 percent of the shares in the subsidiary Tele2 Rostov in Russia for SEK 366 million, of which SEK 92 million will be paid in Q1 2013. This was the last minority stake in Tele2 Russia and as a result of this acquisition Tele2 now owns 100 percent of its Russian operation. As described in the Accounting principles, a revised accounting standard requires Tele2 to record the effect of a change in the parent company's shares in a subsidiary, when the parent company retains control, within equity. The Rostov acquisition has resulted in a decrease in equity of SEK 306 million.

Other acquisitions

Other acquisitions of SEK 25 million relates to final payment in August 2010 of previous year acquisition of shares in Tele2 Izhevsk.

The information above and the pro forma below are to be viewed as preliminary.

The put option in Kazakhstan is measured to its fair value and the minority interest within equity has been reclassified to an interest bearing financial liability. Fair value of the 49 percent minority interest, SEK 527 million, has been determined based on the purchase price of Tele2's 51 percent interest in Kazakhstan, SEK 545 million. More details about the accounting policy applied can be found in the section Accounting principles and definitions.

In the balance sheet for Kazakhstan there is an interest-free loan from the former owner. At the time of the acquisition the nominal value of the liability was SEK 561 million and the fair value was SEK 265 million.

At the time of the acquisition BBned, Spring Mobil and Kazakhstan had tax losses carried forward. In the purchase price allocation, deferred tax asset relating to the tax loss carried forward has been reported to the extent they offset the deferred tax liability.

DIVESTMENTS Plusnet, Germany

On December 23, 2010 Tele2 sold its 32.5 percent ownership in the joint venture Plusnet in Germany and at the same time made an early termination of the joint venture agreement. Tele2 Germany has paid in net SEK 271 million and report a capital loss of SEK 247 million.

Tele2 Germany currently develops its network independent service portfolio for the residential market and has yearly paid an operational expenditure of approximately SEK 160 million and a capital expenditure of approximately SEK 20 million to the joint venture. By exiting the joint venture agreement Tele2 will save a total of approximately SEK 600 million, offsetting the cost for terminating the agreement early. As a result of the completion of the transaction Tele2 Germany will enter into a new vendor agreement based on commercial terms with QSC for xDSL and telephony services.

Other divestments

Other cash flow changes include settlements of purchase prices in the amount of SEK 1 million, for divestments that have not been classified as discontinued operations.

Divestment after closing day

On December 15, 2010 Tele2 sold its cable TV operation in Lithuania for SEK 42 million. The sale was approved by the regulatory authorities on February 3, 2011 and is expected to be closed in mid February with a capital gain of SEK 4 million. The sold operation is immaterial and has consequently not been reported as assets held for sale at December 31, 2010.

PRO FORMA

NOTE 9 Number of customers

As a way of standardizing reporting both internally and externally, Tele2 decided in 2009 to change its principles for calculating the number of active customers in its mobile prepaid base. As of June 30, 2009, Tele2 considers a customer inactive if the customer has not used its mobile service in 3 months, instead of as earlier 3 to 13 months. Previous periods were not adjusted retroactively. In Q3 2009, additional adjustments were done to the customer base in Russia and Lithuania to reach conformity with the new principle.

In Q2 and Q3 2009, the one-time effect was a net increase of 567,000 and a net decrease of -249,000 respectively in the reported customer base. The large positive effect that the changed principle had on the Russian customer base was mainly related to the fact that the 3 months period was previously calculated from the time of the payment and not (as the new definition) from the last outgoing call. The table below presents how the customer base was affected by the changed definition in each country.

NOTE 10 Sales between mobile and fixed within segment Sweden

Previously, in the segment specification for Sweden, effects from mobile traffic terminated in the fixed access network and traffic in the fixed access network terminated in the mobile access network were not reported since they were related to traffic within the same company. From Q1 2010, with retroactive effect, the internal sale between mobile and fixed broadband/telephony has been reported for Tele2 Sweden. Segment Sweden has been adjusted with the following amounts.

NOTE 11 New revenue recognition principle Multiple deliveries

With prospective effect, revenues from customer agreements including the delivery of mobile phones or other equipment, without the debit of any specific enhanced subscription fees, are allocated to the individual components in the agreement. Before, the revenue was recognized when the total service was provided the customer. The changed principle means that revenues that can be allocated to the equipment are recognized at the delivery of the equipment to the customer and revenues from other subscription charges are recognized in the period covered by the charge. Prior periods have not been restated since it is impracticable to determine the effect on these. The change has had a positive effect on net sales in Q4 2010 of SEK 87 million.

Enhanced fees

In Sweden the sale of phones and computers via so called enhanced subscription fee has increased. Enhanced fees are an offering for the customer to pay explicitly for the equipment during a period of 12 to 24 months. This change in customer offering has led to a revaluation of how much cash flow can be allocated to equipment such as mobile phones etc.

In segment Sweden from January 1, 2010 sales with enhanced subscription fees are regarded as instalment payments and the accounting of the revenues reflect that. Hence both the cost and the revenue from the equipment are accounted for at the time it is supplied to the customer. Previously the cost was taken up front and the revenue was recognized when the total services were provided. Previous periods have been recalculated and the effects on the financial statements are presented below.
