Q4/Year-End Report 2013

COMMENTS BY THE PRESIDENT AND CEO OF TERACOM GROUP

Competition in the Swedish and Danish Pay TV market remains stiff. Fundamental changes to media

consumption habits and growing demand for additional options are challenging the entire industry. Total hours of TV viewing are increasing and online streaming is expected to grow considerably. These trends present us with tremendous opportunities.

The Teracom Group adopted both strategic and tactical measures in 2013 to take advantage of the changes that the media market is already undergoing. The group identified strategic focus areas and refined its business strategy.

The ongoing effort to develop an online TV solution for smartphones and tablets will result in a step-by-step launch throughout 2014. The appealing content that we have negotiated is decisive to attracting and retaining customers. The focus of the Group in 2013 was to surpass customer expectations by being more oriented towards their needs and preferences.

Boxer holds a strong position in the Danish Pay TV market. With a 14% share, the company has firmly established its brand there. We added Denmark's most attractive channels to our program offering during the year, and Boxer Denmark operated in the black for the first time since starting in 2008. The broad customer base and popular brand represent solid potential for growth. The decline in Boxer Sweden customers slowed down during the second half of the year. The systematic effort to improve customer satisfaction and offer additional options bore fruit. One result was a second place ranking on the Swedish Quality Index (SKI) customer satisfaction survey among digital TV operators.

The Group's radio business remained relatively stable. Swedish Pay TV providers have adopted a wait-and-see attitude to digitalization. The Government submitted a bill in mid-June 2013, but a final decision is unlikely before fall 2014. The basic scenario is that FM broadcasts will end in 2022. Digital radio is already up and running in Denmark. Demand for Network Services at Teracom Sweden was strong in 2013. A great deal of effort was devoted to the tender process for the Swedish National Communications System for Emergency Services (Rakel) – an announcement is expected in spring 2014. Preparations for transitioning to state-of-the-art technology in parts of Swedish transmitting networks will begin in 2014. One benefit will be more space for additional channels and HDTV channels in the terrestrial network. Now that Teracom Denmark has completed expansion of transmitting network 6, Boxer Denmark's program offering includes additional HDVT channels.

For the purpose of strengthening our sustainability effort, we established clear, quantifiable targets for diversity, supplier selection and the environment, our three most important areas. That way we are better equipped to advance our market position, not to mention the pride and commitment of our employees. Last but not least, I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to everyone who works at the Group for their invaluable contributions in 2013.

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW

Income

and profits

Fourth quarter 2013

Due primarily to Boxer Sweden's smaller customer base, Group income declined slightly from the fourth quarter of 2012 to SEK 968 million (993).

Operating profit was down by SEK 3 million to SEK 124 million (127). The decline, which was due to Boxer Sweden's smaller customer base and fewer Danish Broadcasting Corporation projects for Teracom Denmark, was offset by higher earnings at Boxer Denmark.

Net financial expense amounted to SEK -8 million (0). The poorer outcome stemmed from the inclusion in 2013 of major unrealized exchange gains. Profit after financial items was SEK 116 million (127). Owing to the sale of PlusTV Finland, the capital gain and associated profits were reported under "net profit for the period from discontinued operations," which totaled SEK 1 million (-89) for the fourth quarter.

Net profit for the period was SEK 92 million (71).

Full year 2013

Group income for the full year amounted to SEK 3,875 million (3,900). The decline, which was due to the same trends at Boxer Sweden and Teracom Denmark as in the fourth quarter, was offset by higher average income per customer for Boxer Denmark and somewhat better sales for Teracom Sweden.

Operating profit rose by SEK 137 million to SEK 638 million (501). Boxer Denmark was chiefly responsible for the improvement. The figure included costs affecting comparability totaling SEK 13 million (35). Net financial expense for the year was SEK -31 million (-42). Lower net debt was the reason for the improvement.

Profit after financial items was SEK 607 million (459). Net profit from discontinued operations was SEK 100 million (-142).

Net profit for the period was SEK 586 million (233).

MARKET OVERVIEW

Sweden

Due to the arrival of new providers with online distribution platforms, the Swedish Pay TV market has become more competitive in recent years. The older providers, including Boxer, tried to parry by developing new online and other services.

The radio market is relatively stable. Digitalization of radio is around the corner in accordance with a bill that the Government submitted in June 2013. As passed by the Riksdag in November, the bill specifies terms and guidelines for public service companies during the 2014-2019 licensing period. The Government will review digitalization issues again in 2014 based on the scenario that FM broadcasts will end in 2022.

Denmark

The conversion of TV2, the most popular Danish TV channel, to Pay TV in 2012 substantially expanded the market and increased competition. The arrival of new providers also made the market more competitive.

Digital radio has been up and running for several years. A decision has been made to revise the broadcasting standard for digital radio in preparation for shutting down the FM network.

PERFORMANCE BY SEGMENT

The Teracom Group monitors operations in four segments. Two segments run network operations in the areas of terrestrial TV, radio and transmission. Two segments run Pay TV operations based on terrestrial TV. The geographic market ranges across Sweden and Denmark. 27% (26%) 51% (52%) 4% (5%) 18% (17%)

Teracom Sweden

Orders received remained brisk in the fourth quarter. The company signed a field service agreement with Huawei. Agreements for co-location of 4G equipment, satellite services and broadcasting of regional direct TV were also signed during the year.

Both income and operating profit for the fourth quarter were essentially on a par with the year before.

Owing primarily to the filling of vacancies and higher consulting expenses for several projects, net profit for the year was lower than 2012. Depreciation was higher in the wake of expansion of the TV network in 2012.

Cumulative income was higher than the previous year. The increase was mostly attributable to broadcasting of Digital TV, Service and the Media Transport product.

Network quality was very good during the year.

Boxer Sweden

Boxer carried out a number of activities and projects during the year to improve customer satisfaction and strengthen its market position. A major repackaging effort increased the content offering, while the launch of Flex-16 in the fall provided even more options.

The decline in the number of Boxer Sweden customers slowed down in the fourth quarter. The pace decreased substantially in the second half of the year.

Income and profit for the fourth quarter were lower than 2012. A smaller customer base and price competition in the Swedish market were responsible. The same income and profit trends could be seen for full-year 2013.

Number of TV households broken down by main type of reception. DTT FTA: households with only free TV via the terrestrial network. Many TV households also have DTT FTA as a supplemental type of reception.

Teracom Denmark

Expansion of transmitter network 6 for TV was completed according to plan during the fall. The infrastructure is now in place for the inclusion of HDTV channels in Boxer Denmark's offering. The step-by-step regional rollout of new channels in October went well.

In the wake of fewer maintenance projects, particularly from the Danish Broadcasting Corporation, income was lower for both the fourth quarter and the full year.

Due primarily to the same developments, operating profit was also poorer for the two periods. Given the above trends and the loss of much of the relationship with TV2, a restructuring effort was undertaken later in the year for the purpose of adjusting costs.

Network quality was very good during the year.

Boxer Denmark

After several years of construction, the business entered a more stable phase based on its large customer base and established brand.

New agreements with TV3, TV3 Plus and a number of other popular channels expanded the program offering. Boxer Denmark's offering now includes the country's most attractive channels. Video on demand was also added to the company's services.

An increase in average income per customer led to an improvement for both the fourth quarter and the full year.

Chiefly as a result of the fact that income was higher and selling expenses associated with rapid growth in 2012 had been fully charged to earnings, the company operated in the black for the first time in 2013.

Number of TV households broken down by main type of reception. DTT FTA: households with only free TV via the terrestrial network. Many TV households also have DTT FTA as a supplemental type of reception.

CASH FLOW

Cash flow includes discontinued operations for the comparative year.

Cash flow from operating activities for the full year was SEK 854 million (510). The improvement was due to an increase in operating profit to SEK 638 million (352) and a reduction in working capital tied up to SEK -48 million (-133). Cash flow tied up in 2012 stemmed primarily from accounts receivable at year-end due to holidays, as well as higher inventory tied up.

Group investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets totaled SEK 348 million (317) for the year. The increase was due primarily to expansion of Danish transmission network 6. Subsidiaries sold refer to the divestment of PlusTV, which increased cash flow by SEK 392 million (-).

Cash flow for the year from financing activities was SEK 552 million (403). In addition to the dividend of SEK 125 million (110) in the second quarter, the figure consisted of net repayment of debt.

FINANCIAL POSITION

The Group's interest-bearing liabilities were SEK 1,286 million (1,711). Cash and cash equivalents, current investments and available bank credit amounted to SEK 541 million (874). The net equity ratio was 0.42 (0.96).

Total assets decreased by SEK 207 million to SEK 5,060 million (5,267). The equity/assets ratio was 45 percent (33).

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

NOTES

Note 1 Accounting principles

The Group reports in accordance with the Government Ownership Policy and the guidelines for external reporting that apply to government-owned companies. This year-end report was prepared pursuant to IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as well as the Swedish Annual Accounts Act for the Group. The Group applied the same accounting principles as described in the annual report for 2012, with the exception of the additions and revisions presented below.

IFRS 5, Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, has been applied for PlusTV, a discontinued operation in 2013. Thus, income and expenses for PlusTV have been excluded from all items in the income statement for the current period, as well as prior periods in 2012. They have been reported separately in the income statement as net profit/loss for the period from discontinued operations. Capital gains from divestment have been reported in the income statement on the "Profit/loss from discontinued operations" line, as well as on a separate line in Note 4. Assets and liabilities held for sale have been valued at the lower of carrying amount and fair value after deducting estimated selling expenses.

Revised accounting principles

IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, has been revised with respect to other comprehensive income. The most important revision is the requirement that items reported in other comprehensive income be broken down into two categories. The breakdown is based on whether or not the items may potentially be reclassified to the income statement. The revision does not address the issue of which items are to be included in other comprehensive income.

IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement, took effect on January 1, 2013. The standard provides guidance in measuring fair value, whereas the question of when fair value is to, or may be, reported is still stipulated by individual IAS and IFRS standards. IFRS 13 also contains requirements for disclosing fair value, which are applicable to interim reports as well when it comes to financial instruments.

IAS 19, Employee Benefits Revised, affected financial reporting in 2013. The revisions are attributable to reporting of defined benefit pension plans. The revision to IAS 19 eliminates the option of using the corridor method, i.e., reporting only part of actuarial gains and losses as income or expense. Revaluation is to be reported on a current basis in other comprehensive income instead. In accordance with the previously amended standard, return on plan assets is not to be reported with expected return, but interest income is to be reported in the income statement on the basis of the particular discount rate at the beginning of the year.

Thus, the accounting principles for defined benefit pension plans have been revised from the group's accounting principles in the annual report for 2012, as well as previously released interim reports for 2012. Because the new principles affect accounting retroactively, the opening balance as of January 1, 2012 has been recalculated. The comparative figures for 2012 have also been recalculated.

As a result of the new accounting principles, net provision for pension, including the special employer's contribution, has increased by SEK 135 million as of January 1, 2012. Because the deficit associated with the transition has been reported against profit brought forward, i.e., equity, group equity has been reduced by SEK 99 million with consideration paid to deferred tax.

In the comparative figures as of December 31, 2012, net provision for pension has been recalculated from a receivable of SEK 73 million to a liability of SEK 67 million, while deferred tax has been revised from a liability of SEK 16 million to a receivable of SEK 15 million. The recalculation has reduced net profit for the group in 2012 by SEK 3 million, as well as other comprehensive income from SEK -11 million to SEK -18 million.

Note 2 Segment information

The segments are reported in accordance with the same accounting principles that are applied by the Group. Sales between segments occur at prices that are fair estimates of current market prices. Operating profit is used to assess the performance of each segment. Financial expenses, financial income and income tax are addressed at the Group level.

Note 3. Financial instruments

The table below shows financial instruments measured at fair value, based on how classification in the fair value hierarchy has been performed. The various levels have been defined as follows:

- Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) on active markets for identical assets or liabilities

- Level 2 – Observable market inputs for assets or liabilities other than Level 1 inputs – such data may be observable either directly (i.e., as quotations) or indirectly (i.e., derived from quotations)

- Level 3 – inputs for assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (i.e., non-observable data)
