Highlights during the third quarter
Adjusted net asset value (NAV) amounted to SEK 1,028.0bn (SEK 336 per share) on September 30, 2025, a change of
SEK 67.3bn, or 7 percent, during the quarter. Total shareholder return amounted to 5 percent, compared to 3 percent
for the SIXRX return index.
Listed Companies generated a total return of 8 percent. Investor acquired shares in Atlas Copco and Ericsson for SEK
0.6bn and SEK 0.5bn respectively, and entered into an agreement to divest 5m shares in SEB.
Based on estimated market values, the total return for Patricia Industries, including cash, amounted to 4 percent
(4 percent excluding cash), mainly driven by multiples.
Within Patricia Industries, sales growth for the major subsidiaries amounted to -4 percent, of which 4 percent
organically in constant currency. Reported EBITA declined by 1 percent and adjusted EBITA declined by 2 percent,
impacted by negative currency effects.
Mölnlycke reported organic sales growth of 3 percent in constant currency, with Wound Care growing 5 percent. The
profit margin increased, driven by lower cost and product mix, partly offset by negative currency impact and tariff
costs.
Patricia Industries’ subsidiary Advanced Instruments closed the USD 2.2bn acquisition of Nova Biomedical. Patricia
Industries contributed USD 1.6bn to finance the acquisition. The combined company is now operating as Nova
Biomedical.
The value change of Investments in EQT was 1 percent. Investor invested an additional SEK 1.8bn in the co-

INVESTOR Q3 2025 – 3
CEO statement
Dear fellow shareholders,
Being a firm believer in free trade as a catalyst for innovation
and global economic growth it is disturbing to see that trade
friction continues to increase, due to tariffs and significant
geopolitical tension. While the magnitude of tariffs differs
between countries, the impact on the global economy is clearly
negative. Further, on the currency front, while the USD
remained relatively flat against the SEK during the quarter, it is
still down significantly compared to last year.
In this environment, it is pleasing to see that our portfolio
companies are doing a good job focusing on what they can
control, such as cost efficiency. Our companies are also
continuing to invest in future-proofing their businesses, setting
themselves up for stronger long-term performance. Recent
examples are SEB’s expansion of its corporate banking
business into new geographies, Nasdaq’s acquisitions to
considerably strengthen its software-based customer offering,
Mölnlycke’s expansion of its wound care business in China,
and EQT’s move to attract investors from the retail and private
wealth segments.
During the quarter, our adjusted net asset value increased by 7
percent, and total shareholder return was 5 percent. The
SIXRX total return index increased 3 percent.
Listed Companies
Listed Companies generated a total return of 8 percent.
During the quarter, we invested SEK 0.6bn in Atlas Copco and
SEK 0.5bn in Ericsson at levels we deem attractive. We
entered a new contract to divest shares in SEB to maintain our
current ownership share, and we received SEK 0.8bn in
proceeds from the divestment last quarter.
Add-on acquisitions continue to be important to complement
organic growth. For example, in the past 12 months, Atlas
Copco has acquired more than 30 companies, including
several in the third quarter. AstraZeneca announced plans to
invest USD 50bn in the US by 2030, further strengthening its
position in this key market. Pruning portfolios is equally
important, exemplified by Wärtsilä’s divestiture of its Marine
Electrical Systems business. After the end of the quarter, ABB
entered an agreement to divest ABB Robotics to Softbank. We
share the view of the ABB board that this is financially
attractive for the company, while ABB Robotics gets a new
good home.
In Husqvarna, the board appointed internal candidate Glen
Instone as new CEO, effective August, 2025.
The Nomination Committees ahead of the 2026 Annual
General Meetings are currently convening. Attracting and
retaining the best possible boards in our companies is
imperative. Competition for the best competence is only
getting more fierce, which is why we continue our push to
close the gap between Swedish and international board
remuneration levels for listed companies.
Patricia Industries
Patricia Industries’ total return was 4 percent in the quarter,
with positive contribution mainly from multiples.
The major subsidiaries (Nova Biomedical included on pro
forma basis) reported sales growth of -4 percent, while organic
growth in constant currency was a positive 4 percent, with
BraunAbility and Laborie growing significantly faster. Adjusted
EBITA declined by 2 percent, largely driven by a weakening
USD. Margins remained stable despite tariffs and negative
currency effects, helped by efficiency improvements.
Mölnlycke reported organic sales growth of 3 percent in
constant currency, driven mainly by Wound Care. The EBITA
margin improved, with efficiency initiatives and product mix
contributing positively, while currency and tariffs impacted
negatively.
In July, Advanced Instruments completed the acquisition of
Nova Biomedical, now the name of the combined company.
Starting this quarter, the company’s performance is reported
pro forma. Organic growth in the quarter was negative 4
percent, due to a particularly strong comparison quarter last
year, and a cyber incident that disrupted operations during this
quarter. Integration work to realize Nova Biomedical’s
attractive long-term profitable growth potential is off to a good
start. This work entails activities such as merging the
organizations and implementing a common ERP system, which
may impact sales and earnings near-term.
Investments in EQT
The reported value of Investments in EQT grew 1 percent. We
invested an additional SEK 1.8bn in the co-investment of
Fortnox, taking the total investment close to the previously
communicated SEK 4.5bn. Exit activity in EQT funds was high,
with net cash flow to Investor of SEK 2.0bn, excluding Fortnox.
After the quarter, it was announced that Jean Eric Salata has
been nominated to succeed Conni Jonsson as Chair from the
2026 AGM.
Financial strength and flexibility
Despite significant investment activity in each of our business
areas over the past several quarters, leverage remains at the
lower end of the 0-10 percent target range.
Focus on building strong and sustainable businesses
Investor operates from a strong position, with a clear purpose,
a focused strategy, a proven ownership model, and high-
quality portfolio companies run by great people. Our financial
flexibility supports our strategy. The current environment
offers opportunities to further strengthen the positions of our
companies and Investor itself, underpinning our ability to
continue generating an attractive total return to you, dear
fellow shareholders.
Thank you for your trust in our work.

(BPH), and increased R&D activity.

On July 10, 2025, Advanced Instruments completed its
previously announced acquisition of Nova Biomedical, a
global provider of analytical instruments and consumables
for the biopharmaceutical and clinical markets. The
enterprise value amounted to USD 2.2bn and Patricia
Industries contributed USD 1.6bn in equity financing with the
remainder financed by external debt. Integration and value
creation activities are underway and progressing well.
Pro forma organic sales growth amounted to -4 percent in

period and a cyber incident that impacted the sales and
operations this quarter.
The EBITA margin declined, primarily driven by increased
investments in general and administrative functions to
support the integration as well as elevated manufacturing

Activities during the quarter
Organic sales growth amounted to 3 percent in constant
currency, with strong growth in Emergency Preparedness
and Acute Care partly offset by continued market-driven
headwinds for Cardiac Response.
The underlying profit margin was stable, as favorable product
mix was offset by continued investments in the commercial
organization and digital platform enhancement.
On August 8, Sarnova acquired RescueStat, a healthcare
technology company specializing in AED (automated external
defibrillator) program management and remote monitoring,
which has become a part of the Cardiac Response business

technology is highly complementary to the Cardiac Response

Activities during the quarter
Organic sales were flat in constant currency, with growth in
EMEA and APAC offset by decline in Americas as a result of
generally slower demand in the US and decline in Power
Assist Devices.
The EBITA margin declined, compared to a strong
comparison quarter, negatively impacted by costs related to
the recall of the SmartDrive Speed Control Dial. Adjusted for
these costs, the margin was stable, supported by cost
efficiency measures.
The abovementioned recall is a voluntary action regarding
the SpeedControl Dial, a wired control option for the
SmartDrive, to cater for the product quality and safety of
Permobil’s end users.
Since the launch of the next-generation bespoke manual

Investor group
Net debt
Net debt totaled SEK 27,462m on September 30, 2025
(12,194). Debt financing of the Patricia Industries’
subsidiaries is arranged without guarantees from Investor
and hence not included in Investor’s net debt. Investor
guarantees SEK 2.4bn of the associated company Tre
Skandinavien’s refinanced external debt, but this
guaranteed loan is not included in Investor’s net debt. The
same applies for pending dividends from investments and
approved but not yet paid dividend to shareholders.

Other
Events after the end of the quarter
On October 13, Vectura signed an agreement to divest
Aktiebolaget Näckström, consisting of the Arsenalsgatan
property and Villa Täcka udden, to FAM AB. The total
property value of the assets in the transaction amounts to
SEK 1.4bn. Since the sale constitutes a related party
transaction under the Swedish Companies Act, the
transaction- and decision-process have been handled in a
corresponding way as when the Grand Group was sold to
FAM AB in 2021, which is described in the Swedish
Securities Council's ruling 2021:21 on good practice in
related party transactions (including, among other things,
independent valuation appraisals).
Offers to chairpersons
Investor continues to offer chairpersons in certain
companies within Listed Companies the opportunity to
invest in options in their respective companies with a
duration of five to seven years, as the chairperson has a
particularly important role in driving successful board work.
During the second quarter 2025, new 7-year options, with a
strike price of 120 percent of the share price, were sold to
the chairperson in Husqvarna for a total consideration of
SEK 1m.
Acquisitions (business combinations)

in AED program management and remote monitoring. The
acquisition strengthens Cardio Partners’ mission to
increase survival rates from sudden cardiac arrest (SCA)
and expands its ability to deliver life-saving solutions to
more communities across the US. The consideration
amounted to SEK 507m and was funded with cash. In the
preliminary purchase price allocation, goodwill amounted
to SEK 428m. The goodwill recognized is not expected to
be deductible for income tax purposes. Transaction-related
costs amounted to SEK 18m and derives from external
legal fees and due diligence expenses. These costs have
been included in the line-item Administrative, research and
development and other operating costs in the Group’s
consolidated income statement. For the period from the
acquisition date until September 30, 2025, RescueStat
contributed net sales of SEK 17m and profit/loss of SEK
6m to the Group’s result. If the acquisition of RescueStat
had occurred on January 1, 2025, management estimates
that consolidated net sales for the Group would have
increased by SEK 66m and consolidated profit/loss for the
period would have increased by SEK 2m.
Advanced Instrument’s acquisition of Nova Biomedical
On July 10, 2025, Advanced Instruments finalized the
acquisition of 100 percent of Nova Biomedical, a global
provider of analytical instruments and consumables for the
biopharmaceutical and clinical markets. Advanced
Instruments and Nova Biomedical will combine to create a
diversified, global life science tools platform which will
operate under the Nova Biomedical name, with a portfolio
of innovative products serving the biopharmaceutical and
clinical markets, commercial presence in over 100
countries, enhanced innovation capabilities, and a strong
financial profile. The consideration amounted to SEK
21,575m and was funded with SEK 15,260m in equity from
Patricia Industries, and external debt. The acquisition adds
a complementary product portfolio, amplified R&D
opportunities and global commercial presence which will
create a strong foundation for accelerated innovation and
profitable growth. In the preliminary purchase price
allocation, goodwill amounted to SEK 11,858m. The
goodwill recognized is not expected to be deductible for
income tax purposes. Goodwill mainly derives from
expected synergies and R&D that do not qualify for
separate recognition. Transaction-related costs amounted
to SEK 297m and derives from external legal fees and due
diligence expenses. These costs have been included in the
line-item Changes in value in the Group’s consolidated
income statement. For the period from the acquisition date
until September 30, 2025, Nova Biomedical contributed net
sales of SEK 931m and profit/loss of SEK -315m to the
Group’s result. If the acquisition of Nova Biomedical had
occurred on January 1, 2025, management estimates that
consolidated net sales for the Group would have increased
by SEK 2,481m and consolidated profit/loss for the period
would have increased by SEK 538m.

Pillar two
Investor is covered by the new OECD’s Pillar two model
rules, adopted into Swedish law as of December 31, 2023.

some jurisdictions, where the effective tax rate according
to Pillar two is below a minimum tax rate of 15%. The
assessment is that there is no significant exposure for Top-
up tax for Investor.

Risks with regards to Russia’s invasion of
Ukraine
All consolidated companies have taken measures related
to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine such as following sanctions,
to protect and support employees, and several have wound
down their Russian activities. The direct exposure to Russia
and Ukraine is very small for Investor and its subsidiaries
and the direct financial impact from the war is negligible.
The Group has no production plants or other assets in the
countries concerned. No impairment has been made
related to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Basis of preparation for the Interim
Management Statement
This Interim Management Statement has in all material
aspects been prepared in accordance with NASDAQ
Stockholm’s guidelines for preparing interim management
statements. The accounting policies that have been
applied for the consolidated income statement and
consolidated balance sheet, are in agreement with the
accounting policies used in the preparation of the
company’s most recent annual report.
Alternative performance measures
Investor applies the ESMA Guidelines on Alternative
performance measures (APMs). An APM is a financial
measure of historical or future financial performance,
financial position, or cash flows, other than a financial
measure defined or specified in the applicable financial
reporting framework. For Investor’s consolidated accounts,
this framework typically means IFRS.
Definitions of all APMs used are found in the Annual report
2024 and on www.investorab.com/investors-
media/financials/definitions.
Reconciliations to the financial statements for the APMs
that are not directly identifiable from the financial
statements and considered significant to specify, are
disclosed on pages 26-27. Reconciliations of APMs for
individual subsidiaries or business areas are not disclosed,
since the purpose of these are to give deeper financial
information without being directly linked to the financial
information for the Group, that is presented according to
the applicable financial reporting framework.
Roundings
Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this
Interim Management Statement may not add up precisely
to the totals provided and percentages may not precisely
reflect the absolute figures.

Financial instruments
The numbers below are based on the same accounting and valuation policies as used in the preparation of the company’s
most recent annual report. For information regarding financial instruments in level 2 and level 3, see Note 32, Financial
instruments, in Investor’s Annual report 2024.

All valuations in level 3 are based on assumptions and judgments that management considers to be reasonable based on the
circumstances prevailing at the time. Changes in assumptions may result in adjustments to reported values and the actual outcome may
differ from the estimates and judgments that were made. Shares and participations in level 3 are mainly fund investments within EQT.
Unlisted holdings in funds are measured at Investor’s share of the value that the fund manager reports for all unlisted fund holdings (Net
Asset Value) and is normally updated when a new valuation is received. The value change on Investor’s investments in EQT funds are
reported with a one-quarter lag. Part of the unlisted portfolio is valued based on comparable companies, and the value is dependent on
the level of the multiples. The multiple ranges provided in the note show the minimum and maximum value of the actual multiples applied
in these valuations. A 10 percent change of the multiples would have an effect on this part of the unlisted portfolio of approximately SEK
110m (100). For the derivatives, a parallel shift of the interest rate curve by one percentage point would affect the value by approximately
SEK 310m (540).
Financial assets and liabilities by level
The table below indicates how fair value is measured for the financial instruments recognized at fair value in the Balance sheet. The
financial instruments are presented in three categories, depending on how the fair value is measured:
Level 1: According to quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments
Level 2: According to directly or indirectly observable inputs that are not included in level 1
Level 3: According to inputs that are unobservable in the market

Valuation methodology
Listed Companies Share price (bid) for the class of shares held by Investor, with the exception of Saab, Electrolux and Electrolux
Professional for which the most actively traded share class is used.
Ownership calculated in accordance with the disclosure of regulations of Sweden’s Financial Instruments
Trading Act (LHF). ABB, AstraZeneca, Nasdaq and Wärtsilä in accordance with Swiss, British, U.S. and Finnish
regulations.
Includes market value of derivatives related to investments if applicable.
Patricia Industries
Subsidiaries Reported value based on the acquisition me thod. As supplementary information, subsidiaries are also
presented at estimated market values, mainly based on valuation multiples for relevant listed peers and
indices. Other methodologies may also be used, for example relating to real estate assets. New platform
investments and major add-on acquisitions normally valued at invested amount during the first 18 months
following the acquisition.
Partner-owned investments Reported value based on the equity method. As supplementary information, partner-owned investments are
also presented at estimated market values, mainly based on valuation multiples for relevant listed peers and
indices.
Financial investments Unlisted holdin gs at multiple or third-party valuation, listed shares at share price (bid).
Investments in EQT Unlisted holdings at multiple or third-party valuation, listed shares at share price (bid).
Patricia Industries, overview of estimated market values
Supplementary information In addition to reported values, which are in accordance with IFRS, Investor provides estimated market values
for the wholly-owned subsidiaries and partner-owned investments within Patricia Industries in order to
facilitate the evaluation of Investor’s net asset value. This supplementary, non-GAAP information also
increases the consistency between the valuation of Listed Companies and our major wholly-owned
subsidiaries and partner-owned Tre Skandinavien.
Estimated market values While the estimated market values might not necessarily reflect our view of the intrinsic values, they reflect
how the stock market values similar companies.
Methodology The estimated market values are mainly based on valuation multiples (median), typically Enterprise value
(EV)/Last 12 months’ operating profit, for relevant listed peers and indices. We define EV as quarterly volume-
weighted average share price (VWAP) plus closing date net debt. While we focus on EBITA when evaluating
the performance of our companies, for valuation purposes, EBITDA multiples are more commonly available,
and therefore often used. From the estimated EV, net debt is deducted, and the remaining equity value is
multiplied with Patricia Industries’ share of capital.
Adjustments Operating profit is adjusted to reflect, for example, pro forma effects of completed add-on acquisitions and
certain non-recurring items. An item is only viewed as non-recurring if it exceeds a certain amount set for each
company, is unlikely to affect the company again, and does not result in any future benefit or cost.
Acquisitions made less than 18 months ago are normally valued at cost.
