Discontinuing operations
A payment of SEK 6.2 billion was received in the third quarter related to the divestment of Vibracoustic. The corresponding amount was recognized as a financial receivable in the second quarter.
1) Nine-month net profit in discontinuing operations is recognized in accordance with IFRS and amounted to SEK 4,369 M. This amount includes a capital gain of SEK 4,070 M and a reclassification of shareholders' equity of SEK 299 M. The net effect on shareholders' equity amounts to SEK 4,070 M. Both items are attributable to the divestment of Vibracoustic.
Advancing our positions
"After an eventful second quarter, the third quarter is the first one that we are now working in the new structure. We have divested Vibracoustic and CGS is included for the first time for a full quarter. We have advanced our positions and have a good structure for the future.
Trelleborg reported an increasing operating profit and sustained its margin at the same high level as in the strong third quarter of last year. Sales rose by 18 percentage points compared with the preceding year, predominantly driven by the acquisition of CGS in addition to other bolt-on acquisitions. EBIT excluding comparable items increased by 15 percent.
We achieved these favorable results through our focus on securing leading market positions and effective cost control in an environment distinguished by a continued weak trend for several market segments. Offshore oil & gas was the main factor underlying the fall-off in organic sales, at the same time as a more positive trend was noted for our aerospace and automotive-related operations. Organic sales were lower year on year, but slightly better than in the preceding quarter.
In historical terms, the second half year is a seasonally weaker period due to our customers' purchasing patterns and vacation periods. Now that CGS is included for the first time for a full quarter, we can see that this seasonal pattern has been accentuated.
We are now working to integrate CGS and other acquisitions in a long-term, sustainable and structurally appropriate manner. Naturally, these activities affect both sales and earnings during a period as we build the platform for the future. I would like to emphasis once again that Trelleborg's focus is always on the end result, sometimes at the expense of shortterm quarterly figures.
During the quarter, we signed an agreement to acquire four companies which, combined, will contribute just under SEK 900 M to our sales on an annual basis. These acquisitions strengthen and complement us in niches where we have ambitions to grow and they should be perceived as building blocks for the establishment of leading market positions in already focused segments.
We are particularly pleased with the acquisition of Schwab in industrial antivibration and the fact that we successfully completed a number of exciting bolt-on acquisitions in Trelleborg Sealing Solutions. Our strategy continues to primarily rest on organic growth initiatives, and thus bolt-on acquisitions should be viewed as a complement to this strategy.
The trend in several segments remains subdued in most markets, primarily offshore oil & gas, but also heavy general industry and agriculture. As previously, our growth is instead being driven by other segments, such as the automotive and aerospace industries. Our assessment is that the trend in agricultural markets, albeit clearly weaker than in the preceding year, is starting to plateau at a low level.
Market outlooks are associated with a high degree of uncertainty. However, our general assessment is that demand for the fourth quarter will be on a par with the third quarter. As in the past, we are carefully monitoring economic developments and continue to maintain a high level of preparedness to manage fluctuating market conditions."
Peter Nilsson, President and CEO

Risk management
Trelleborg serves a broad range of customers in a variety of market segments and niches. Sales, and thereby invoicing, are made to approximately 140 countries worldwide and the Group has manufacturing operations at more than 100 production units in around 40 countries. Although the business is diversified, deploying several business models and operating a number of production units, and has an effective underlying spread of financial risks, a number of risks remain.
Trelleborg has identified nine large risks in five areas. These include risks that may result in damage or loss with substantial impact on the entire Group and therefore justify management of the risk exposure at Group level.
For information regarding the Group's risks, risk exposure and risk management, refer to the latest Trelleborg Annual Report, www.trelleborg.com and the information published in this interim report.
This report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the applicable rules of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The interim report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with Chapter 9 of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, Interim Reports. The accounting policies applied by the Group and Parent Company correspond to the accounting policies applied in the preparation of the most recent annual report except as regards the accounting of Vibracoustic. As from the first quarter of 2016, the equity method is no longer applicable. Instead IFRS 5 is applied and recognition occurs under discontinuing operations.
New and amended standards applied from January 1, 2016
New and amended standards are not considered to have had a material impact on the Group's or Parent Company's earnings or financial position.
This report was subject to special review by the company's auditor.
Trelleborg, October 25, 2016 Board of Directors of Trelleborg AB (publ)
Report of Review of Interim Financial Information
Introduction
We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Trelleborg AB (publ) as of 30 September 2016 and the nine-month period then ended. The board of directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.
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
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.

Organic sales for the quarter declined by 2 percent year-onyear. Organic sales of coated fabrics decreased compared with the year-earlier period, with stronger sales in Asia and South America counterbalancing a weaker trend in both Europe and North America. Sales to general industry and the automotive industry were lower, while overall demand from the aerospace industry was favorable. Organic sales of printing blankets were on a par with the year-earlier period, with stronger sales to Asia offsetting lower sales in North and South America. Corresponding sales were unchanged in Europe.
EBIT improved compared with the corresponding period in 2015. The EBIT margin strengthened as a result of implemented restructuring measures and effective cost control.

Organic sales for the quarter declined by 3 percent year-onyear. Sales to the automotive industry were generally favorable, while sales to general industry remained subdued in large parts of the world. Low activity in the oil & gas segment had a negative impact on sales. Deliveries to the infrastructure construction market segment varied between different subsegments and geographic markets. Europe and North and South America reported a downturn in organic sales, in contrast to the positive trend in Asia.
EBIT and the EBIT margin declined compared with the
corresponding period in 2015, mainly due to an unfavorable sales mix. Exchange rate effects from the translation of foreign subsidiaries had a negative impact of SEK 1 M on earnings compared with the year-earlier period.
During the quarter, the business area signed an agreement to acquire a German and Swiss technology-leading supplier of industrial anti-vibration components and systems mainly for the rail market. The acquisition was finalized after the close of the period (see page 6).

Organic sales for the quarter declined by 22 percent year-onyear. The decline was mainly the result of fewer project transactions in the oil & gas segment as well as lower sales in parts of the infrastructure construction segment.
EBIT decreased compared with the corresponding period in 2015, due to a significant decline in deliveries of major project orders. Implemented acquisitions and proactive efforts to adapt the offshore oil & gas operations to the challenging market environment resulted in a limited earnings impact despite significantly lower organic sales.
The EBIT margin increased slightly year on year on
account of these actions. The market price of oil remains low, confirming that competition for outstanding project transactions has intensified and that the prevailing sense of uncertainty can be expected to continue moving forward. Exchange rate effects from the translation of foreign subsidiaries had a negative impact of SEK 5 M on earnings compared with the year-earlier period.
During the quarter, several new products and services were launched, including a maintenance service for fenders on offshore platforms and an offshore wind-farm power-cable protection system.

Organic sales for the quarter were unchanged year-on-year. The positive delivery trend to the aerospace industry continued during the quarter. Sales to the automotive industry were on a part with the year-earlier period. Deliveries to general industry declined in several geographic regions, primarily in more capital-intensive sectors. Organic sales declined slightly in Europe and were lower in North and South America. Sales to Asia rose sharply, mainly to the automotive industry but also to general industry.
EBIT improved due to higher sales while the EBIT margin declined slightly year on year. Integration activities linked to the recent acquisitions negatively impacted earnings in the quarter and are expected to continue affecting the margin to
the same degree in the quarter ahead. These efforts are focused on creating long-term growth opportunities. Exchange rate effects from the translation of foreign subsidiaries had a negative impact of SEK 4 M on earnings compared with the year-earlier period.
An initiative aimed at addressing new customer categories has reached its launch phase and will be implemented in the fourth quarter. During the quarter, a distributor of seals, gaskets and custom-molded products was acquired in the U.S., and an agreement was signed to acquire a manufacturer of precision seals for the aerospace industry (see page 6).

Organic sales for the quarter increased by 1 percent year-onyear. The full consolidation of CGS in the quarter contributed 78 percentage points to the sales increase. Organic sales of agricultural tires to OEMs of agricultural machinery decreased in Europe, but trended favorably in North America, albeit from low levels. Aftermarket sales rose in all regions, and outperformed the underlying market. Organic sales of tires for materials handling vehicles and construction vehicles was unchanged year on year. Organic sales to both the European and North American markets declined somewhat, but this was fully offset by the healthy sales trend in other markets. The newly acquired units are characterized by an even more distinct seasonal pattern, whereby the first six months are
traditionally stronger than the second half of the year.
EBIT increased due to the consolidation of CGS. The EBIT margin declined primarily due to integration costs related to CGS and ongoing initiatives for increasing sales in North America. Combined, these two factors are estimated to have impacted EBIT by about SEK 10 M during the quarter. Exchange rate effects from the translation of foreign subsidiaries had a negative impact of SEK 9 M on earnings compared with the year-earlier period.
During the quarter, a distributor of large solid off-the-road (OTR) tires for the waste, recycling and demolition industries was acquired (see page 6).

Rubena Savatech reported favorable volumes during the quarter and its production units maintained high capacity utilization. Healthy sales were reported of niche products for general industry as well as products for the automotive industry.
The stable sales level, combined with effective cost control, resulted in a satisfactory result in a seasonally weaker quarter.
A number of investment projects have been initiated with the aim of increasing the manufacturing capacity for selected niche products and these will gradually enable the operation to grow.
The integration work relating to the corresponding operations in Trelleborg is proceeding as planned and preparations are under way for a future consolidation.

Acquisitions
Carrying amounts of identifiable acquired assets and assumed liabilities
Acquisition of CGS
On May 31, 2016, Trelleborg finalized the acquisition of 100 percent of the shares in CGS Holding a.s., a privately owned company with leading positions in agricultural, industrial and specialty tires as well as engineered polymer solutions. CGS Holding includes the businesses Mitas, Rubena and Savatech. Mitas will be integrated into the Trelleborg Wheel Systems business area. The other businesses will be recognized separately from Trelleborg's business areas during a transition period, before being gradually integrated into the current business areas. The total cash consideration amounted to approximately SEK 10.9 billion on a cash and debt-free basis. CGS is headquartered in the Czech Republic and generated sales of approximately SEK 5.6 billion in 2015 with an EBIT margin of 16.5 percent. The transaction will be consolidated from May 31, 2016. As a result of this acquisition, Trelleborg will almost double its sales in agricultural tires, strengthen its leading position in industrial tires and add new positions in complementary specialty tires segments. CGS's engineered polymer solutions add new interesting positions as well as strengthen Trelleborg's existing leading positions in several of the Group's current business areas.

Valuation techniques used to derive Level 2 fair values
Level 2 derivatives comprise forw ard foreign contracts and interest rate sw aps and are used mainly for hedging purposes but also for proprietary trading. These forw ard foreign exchange contracts have been fair valued using forw ard exchange rates that are quoted in an active market. Interest rate sw aps are fair valued using forw ard interest rated extracted from observable yield curves. The effects of discounting are generally insignificant for Level 2 derivatives.
Disclosure of fair value for debt and other financial instruments
All debt bears variable interest and the recognized amounts for interest-bearing liabilities are deemed to correspond to their fair value. For other financial instruments the recognized amounts are also deemed to correspond to their fair value.

Financial definitions
Trelleborg uses the following alternative performance measures relating to its financial position, return on shareholders' equity and capital employed, net debt, debt/equity ratio and equity/assets ratio. The Group believes that these performance measures can be utilized by users of the financial statements as a supplement in assessing the possibility of dividends, making strategic investments and assessing the Group's ability to meet its financial commitments. Trelleborg also uses the cash flow metrics of operating cash flow and free cash flow to provide an indication of the funds generated by the operations in order to conduct strategic investments, carry out amortizations and generate a return for its shareholders. Trelleborg uses the performance metrics of EBITDA, EBITA and EBIT excluding items affecting comparability, which the Group considers to be relevant for investors seeking to understand its earnings generation before items affecting comparability. The Group defines its key figures as follows.
