N.R. N.R. Not listed Hemsö Jernhusen Vasakronan Rikshem Akadem. Hus Spec. fast. Sveaskog Rating raised to A due to lower leverage Leverage significantly reduced following sales of property portfolio The upgrade from A- to A reflects our view that s financial risk profile has strengthened following the sales of its property portfolio on 3 June 215. The sale was made to a joint venture which owns together with Swedish pension fund manager Alecta. Following the SEK 3.8bn of cash inflow from the disposal, we now expect debt to EBITDA of less than 2.x for 215, significantly lower than levels of around 5.x seen in previous years. However, as will continue to invest heavily in its airport infrastructure to meet future demand for capacity, technology and environmental standards, we expect leverage to increase in the coming years. We expect a future net debt to EBITDA of 3-4x which is clearly higher than similar rated industrial companies. s near monopolistic position and strong pricing power in a sector with strong growth fundamentals (national and international air travel), in combination with expected high government support, clearly offset this. Bonds Marketweight due to relatively tight pricing We reiterate or Marketweight recommendation on s bonds as they trade relatively tight compared both to government and quasi-government owned peers such Jernhusen, Sveaskog, Rikshem and Hemsö. Passenger numbers continue to rise In the first half of 215, had 18. million passenger in its airports (of which 11.5m were international and 11m at Stockholm-Arlanda airport), up about 4% versus the same period last year. Net sales also grew by about 4% while the operating margin excluding capital gains fell to 19% from 22% in H1 214 due to higher staff and security screening cost. As of 1 April 215, has reduced its charges to airlines by 3.7%, which are now about twenty percentage points below comparable airports. In May, after 2 years of discussion over environmental permits, the Supreme Court has ruled in favour of, meaning that Arlanda Airport can continue to be developed to meet future demand. Arlanda has also been chosen, as one of ten airports globally, to be included as a so-called US preclearance airport, where passengers can be cleared for US immigration at Arlanda from 217.

Explanation of Credit Research recommendations: SEB derives its Recommendations from its appraisal of the Credit Rating of the issuer (itself derived from business risk profile and financial risk profile and from other factors). SEB uses the following recommendation system for the corporate bond market: Overweight over the next six months we expect a position in this instrument to exceed the relevant index, sector or benchmark.

SEB uses the following recommendation system for CDS spreadsheets: Buy we expect the CDS to outperform the sector performance Neutral we take a neutral view on the CDS, and do not recommend either a buy or sell Sell we expect the CDS spreads to underperform the sector performance. Credit Watch Negative When an identifiable event or short term trend has occurred and when additional information is needed to evaluate the impact on the current rating but the likely outcome is a negative rating change. Credit Watch Positive - When an identifiable event or short term trend has occurred and when additional information is needed to evaluate the impact on the current rating but the likely outcome is a positive rating change. Credit Watch Developing When an identifiable event or short term trend has occurred and when additional information is needed to evaluate the impact on the current rating and the likely outcome is uncertain SEB also assigns credit ratings, definitions of which can be found on our website: Methodology SEB s Credit Research assigns its credit rating to an issuer based on the assessment of an issuer s business risk profile as well as its financial risk profile. The business risk profile includes country risk, industry risk, competitive position, and profitability. The financial risk profile includes financial policies, accounting, cash flow adequacy, capital structure and liquidity. The outcome of the assessment of the two risk profiles is weighed together for a final overall rating. In addition to SEB s credit rating assessment, other factors considered in a particular issuer include the credit ratings assigned to a specific issuer by independent agencies, the value and market price of its securities, macroeconomic factors such as interest rates, promised coupon or yield of the specific instruments, and historical spread developments.
