Operating profit amounted to SEK 353 (547) million. Profit during the quarter was negatively affected by one-off effects of SEK 48 (0) million, mainly attributable to write-downs and costs linked to the reorganisation that will be implemented during the next financial year. Our assessment is that only insignificant restructuring costs will be incurred in the coming quarters. We have chosen to prioritise repairs and maintenance, despite increased purchase costs, to ensure attractive experiences in our facilities for our guests going forward. The increase in fuel prices has also affected us to a greater extent than before, as we now use renewable diesel (HVO100) in all our piste groomers. When compared with the third quarter of the previous year, it is further noted that the comparative year included a capital gain of SEK 51 million from exploitation operations, which is not present this quarter because of when in the year the projects within exploitation operations are realised. Operating profit, adjusted for one-off costs and capital gains, amounted to SEK 400 (496) million. Looking over the nine-month period, our growth continues and we increased turnover by two percent. The main growth comes from retail (+19 percent). Despite the fact that many have been affected by tougher personal finances, we have had many guests during the winter season, and the number of skiing days totalled 5,658,000, which is the second highest number in the Company’s history, after last year’s record (6,031,000). Guest satisfaction continues, with 8 out of 10 guests saying that they have had a memorable mountain experience and a pleasing 9 out of 10 feeling better after a stay with us, according to our guest surveys. However, we have had a lower operating profit during the nine-month period driven by increases in repairs, main- tenance, fuel and personnel costs. We have also had increased costs for advertising and marketing during the period, which is part of our strategic investment in year-round operations. Given inflation and uncertainty in the economy, we have placed a lot of focus on reviewing costs during the year. As part of this, when the net financial year begins, we are implementing a reorganisation to achieve more efficient and long-term sustainable working methods for our year-round operations with adapted costs. Our running costs and our work on purchasing are also areas that we will continue to focus on going forward, as we have identified the potential to reduce costs in these areas. Investments in renewable energy Our sustainability work continues at a high pace. During the quarter, we took an important step towards using even more renewable energy and the possibility of producing our own power in collaboration with Jämtkraft. This includes locally produced wind power in Vemdalen, corresponding to 25 percent of our annual electricity consumption and a preliminary study related to a solar park in Sälen. As part of our investment in ‘Keep the mountains tidy’, we have once again collaborated with the Keep Sweden Tidy and Keep Norway Tidy organisations. Together, we have organised litter picking days in all our destinations to draw attention to the problems caused by littering in the mountains. Increased interest in the summer season The transformation into a year-round company continues and, by the Easter break, Stockholm Hammarbybacken had changed its appearan- ce from winter to spring/summer destination. Several destinations are now open again and, for the midsummer weekend, we are opening up a number of new attractions: in Vemdalen, we are investing in summer operations for the first time with a new climbing park and trail cycling, as well as opening the Hovde hotel for the summer. In Sälen and Trysil, we are introducing the new ’Mountain Coaster’ and ’Mountain Tube’ attractions, as well as ‘SummerSki’ in Sälen for everyone who wants to enjoy an active holiday in the Scandinavian mountain world. In Trysil, we now have our first SkiStar Lodge Trysil as Radisson Blu Mountain Resort has changed its name. Several major events will also be held at our destinations, e.g. Tjejmilen by EQPE in Sälen and O-ringen in Åre. The summer season is an important part of our transition to a year-round operation, where we will increase the focus in the coming years on encouraging our guests to be more active by offering a wider range of experiences. Stable demand until winter We continue to invest in the mountain facilities of the future. It is plea- sing that, in addition to two new express lifts in Sälen and Hemsdal for the coming winter season, we have also been able to invest in better SUMMARY COMMENT FROM THE CEO FINANCIAL OVERVIEW SUSTAINABILITY OTHER INFORMATION FINANCIAL REPORTING NOTES DEFINITIONS SKISTAR IN BRIEF The lower operating profit in the quarter is mainly driven by a decline in revenue and one-off costs. For the coming winter we have a booking rate of +5 percent. ” slopes and more efficient snow production, as well as business development and year-round operations. We see a continued high demand for mountain holidays in the winter with a booking level, measured in the number of nights booked through SkiStar’s accommodation agency, of +5 percent compared to the same period in the previous year. We also have more bookings by our foreign guests from, for example, Denmark, the UK and Germany, driven by changes in exchange rates and an interest in more affordable holidays. In summary, many people continue to prioritise a mountain holiday and value alpine skiing highly, even in more uncertain times. I look forward with confidence to the future of SkiStar as a mountain tourism company that creates memorable mountain experiences all year round. Stefan Sjöstrand, CEO 3 SKISTAR INTERIM REPORT SEP 2022-MAY 2023 ===== SIDA 4 ===== Third Quarter The Group’s revenue for the third quarter amounted to SEK 1,411 (1,538) million, a decline of SEK 127 million from the previous year, equivalent to eight percent. Changes in the NOK/SEK exchange rate had a negative effect of SEK 36 million on revenue. The lower revenue is mainly attributable to reduced sales of SkiPass and accommodation within the Operation of Mountain Resorts segment, which in total reduced turnover by SEK 81 million, corresponding to eight percent. In addition, exploi- tation revenues within the Property Development and Exploitation seg- ment decreased by SEK 53 million in the quarter, SEK 0 million (53). The turnover from Operation of Hotels amounted to SEK 172 million (137), an increase of 26 percent corresponding to SEK 35 million, and is mainly attributable to increased sales within restaurant operations. Operating profit in the quarter amounted to SEK 353 (547) million, a decrease of SEK 194 million, corresponding to 35 percent. The lower ope- rating profit was partly due to one-off costs of a total of SEK 48 million, where SEK 15 million refers to costs attributable to the organisational changes, which will come into effect on 1 September and will only have an impact on the next financial year. SEK 13 million from write-downs regarding shares in Vacation Club, which were identified in connection with a reclassification of a number of share weeks from sales weeks to service weeks, as well as SEK 20 million from the revaluation of invest- ment properties from associate company Skiab Invest AB. Exploitation revenues from capital gains within the Property Development and Exploitation segment decreased by SEK 50 million in the quarter, SEK 1 million (51). Operating profit, adjusted for one-off costs and capital gains, QUARTERLY VALUES, SEK MILLION 2022/23 2021/22 2020/21 2019/20 Q 3 Q 2 Q 1 Q 4 Q 3 Q 2 Q 1 Q 4 Q 3 Q 2 Q 1 Q 4 Q 3 Revenue 1,409 2,350 177 224 1,536 2,178 155 184 1,023 1,328 154 162 580 Operating profit/loss 353 932 -451 -265 547 936 -334 19 126 444 -292 -127 15 amounted to SEK 400 (496) million. In the quarter, repair and mainte- nance costs have continued to increase; however, at a lower rate than in previous quarters, and other operating costs are unchanged compared with the same period of the previous year. Profit from associates and joint ventures amounted by SEK -22 million (19), a decline of SEK 41 million. The change was mainly attributable to decreased profit in the associated company Skiab Invest AB, which has been negatively affected by current external factors, which have generated significant changes in interest rate derivatives, currency effects and changes in the market value of investment properties. Net financial items fell by SEK 40 million during the quarter to SEK -26 (15) million. Changes in the value of interest rate derivatives amoun- ted to SEK -11 (27) million. Interest expenses amounted to SEK -23 (-17) million, including lease-related interest of SEK -10 (-10) million under IFRS 16. Exchange losses amounted to SEK -40 (-3) million and exchange gains amounted to SEK 45 (7) million. The Group’s profit/loss before tax amounted to SEK 328 (561) million, a decrease of SEK 234 million, or 42 percent. Nine-Month Period The Group’s revenue for the interim period amounted to SEK 3,958 (3,891) million, an increase of SEK 68 million, corresponding to two per- cent. Changes in the NOK/SEK exchange rate had a negative effect of SEK 12 million on revenue. Revenues from sports stores have increased by SEK 47 million, corresponding to 19 percent, compared to the previous year, and amounted to SEK 303 million. Sales via the online store incre- ased the most (+41 percent) but sales in physical stores also increased. SUMMARY COMMENT FROM THE CEO FINANCIAL OVERVIEW SUSTAINABILITY OTHER INFORMATION FINANCIAL REPORTING NOTES DEFINITIONS SKISTAR IN BRIEF Revenues from the Property Development and Exploitation segment have increased by SEK 42 million and mainly come from property sales in Hemsedal, which were made during the second quarter. Revenues from SkiPass have decreased by SEK 51 million, which mainly refers to lower sales in the third quarter. Operating profit for the interim period amounted to SEK 834 (1,149) million and changes in the NOK/SEK rates had a negative effect of SEK 3 million for the period. The main cost increases during the period relate to personnel and repairs and maintenance. In addition, costs for advertising have increased, which is part of the investment in SkiStar’s year-round operations. Energy costs are unchanged compared to the previous period, which shows that the measures taken to reduce electricity consumption have been effective and fully compensated for the price increases. Profit from shares in associated companies has reduced the operating profit by SEK 42 million compared with the previous year and is mainly due to write-downs of investment properties of SEK 20 million, which were made during the third quarter, as well as negative effects from derivatives and currency translation. Capital gains from Property Development and Exploitation in the interim period amounted to SEK 12 (61) million, which is a decline by SEK 49 million. Net financial items for the nine-month period declined by SEK 41 million to SEK -56 million (-15). The change in the value of interest derivatives amounted to SEK -7 (48). Interest expenses amounted to SEK -68 (-54) million, including lease-related interest of SEK -30 (-28) million under IFRS 16. Exchange losses amounted to SEK -46 (-27) million and exchange gains amounted to SEK 61 (22) million. The Group’s profit before tax for the period was SEK 779 (1134) million, or 31 percent. Seasonal effects SkiStar’s operations are subject to significant seasonal variations. Most revenue and earnings are generated in the second and third quarters when the big school holidays falls as a result of the calendar. The number of days off during Christmas and New Year, and whether Easter falls early or late, also bring variations in earnings. Over half of the revenue is paid in advance. REVENUE AND EARNINGS 4 SKISTAR INTERIM REPORT SEP 2022-MAY 2023 ===== SIDA 5 ===== FINANCIAL POSITION, TAXES AND INVESTMENTS ETC. Cash flow Cash flow from operating activities after changes in working capital was SEK 917 (1,294) million for the nine-month period. The decline was primarily linked to a reduced operating profit during the period but also a negative change in operating capital where the previous year’s cash flow was positively affected by an obtained refund in connection with the sale of shares in the subsidiary St. Johanner Bergbahnen Beteiligungs GmbH of EUR 15 million. Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -628 (-517) million. The increased outflow was mainly related to a higher rate of investment in both tangible and intangible assets. Acquisitions of subsidi- aries have generated a cash flow item of SEK -29 million. Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK -272 (-586) million, which is mainly explained by reduced amortisation compared with the same period of the previous year. Liquidity and financing The Group’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 39 (224) million at the end of May. Unused credit facilities amounted to SEK 473 (770) million. Interest-bearing liabilities excluding IFRS 16 amounted to SEK 1,747 (1,290) million, and increase of SEK 457 million. Of the total liabi- lities in accordance with IFRS 16 of SEK 1,986 million, SEK 1,573 million refers to leasing liabilities to the partly-owned joint venture holding Skiab Invest AB. Interest-bearing liabilities amounted to SEK 3,733 (3,159) million, an increase of SEK 574 million from the previous year. The average interest rate during the period was 3.29 (2.34) percent. Net financial liabilities amounted to SEK 3,643 (2,885) million at the end of May, an increase of SEK 758 million from the previous year (financial net debt excluding IFRS 16 amounted to SEK 1,657 (1,016) million). The equity/assets ratio fell to 43 (46) percent. The equity/assets ratio exclu- ding IFRS 16 was 57 (61) percent. Tax Tax for the period amounted to SEK 170 (258) million and was largely attributable to current tax. Investments Investments for the period amounted to SEK 635 (521) million (gross) and SEK 627 (516) million (net). The difference between gross and net is the divestment of financial assets and property, plant and equipment. Depreciation and amortisation for the same period amounted to SEK -350 (-319) million. Personnel The average number of employees was 1,767 (1,761), an increase of six from the previous year. Personnel costs amounted to SEK 776 (726) mil- lion. The increase is mainly due to the comparable year being positively affected by a received refund of pension funds and this year’s personnel costs being affected based on decreased reductions in employer contribu- tions and salary inflation. Related-party transactions Ekhaga Utveckling AB, which is the main owner of SkiStar with 47 per- cent of the votes and 24 percent of the capital as of 31 May 2023, is also the main owner of Peab with which SkiStar has a business relationship. During the nine-month period, purchases were made from Peab amoun- ting to SEK 26 (43) million. The outstanding liability to Peab was SEK 1 (2) million. Sales to Peab totalled SEK 1 (1) million and the outstanding claim was SEK 0 (0) million. During the nine-month period, purchases from associated companies have been made in the amount of SEK 169 (152) million and sales to associated companies totalled SEK 6 (7) million. Purchases from asso- ciates mostly relate to rental of hotel properties from Skiab Invest AB. Net receivables from associates totalled SEK 5 (12) million, SEK 21 (21) million of which related to loans to associates. Current lease liability to associates under IFRS16 amounts to SEK 1,573 million and right-of-use assets amounted to SEK 1,553 million. In addition to the Group’s related-party transactions, the Parent Com- pany carries out transactions with subsidiaries. Disclosures of related-par- ty transactions and a description of their nature can be found in note 35 of the 2021/22 Annual Report. Parent Company Net sales for the Parent Company totalled SEK 2,668 (2,714) million during the period. Net investments amounted to SEK 311 (392) million. Outlook for 2022/23 All our destinations have changed to spring/summer destinations, and SkiStar continues the transition to a year-round operation, where the summer season will become an increasingly important part. Several new, long-term investments to increase turnover open for the midsummer weekend, such as a new climbing park and trail cycling in Vemdalen, plus new attractions such as the ‘Mountain Coaster’ and ‘Mountain Tube’ in Sälen and Trysil and ‘SummerSki’ in Sälen. Looking ahead to 2023/24 The effect of the continued uncertain economic situation makes it difficult to assess the outlook for household finances as we move into 2023/24. However, despite the state of the economy, we see an increased demand for ski holidays for the winter, with a booking rate measured in the number of nights booked through SkiStar’s accommodation agency of +5 percent compared to the same period of the previous year. The weak currencies in Sweden and Norway continue to benefit both domestic tourism and affordability for our foreign guests. Next winter, we will also see a positive effect from the dates of the holiday periods both during Christmas/New Year and Easter, unlike last year. SkiStar continues to invest according to the previously communicated plan which, for the winter, will include, among other things, two new express lifts in Sälen and Hemsedal, as well as an more modern lift system, better slopes and more efficient snow production. SUMMARY COMMENT FROM THE CEO FINANCIAL OVERVIEW SUSTAINABILITY OTHER INFORMATION FINANCIAL REPORTING NOTES DEFINITIONS SKISTAR IN BRIEF 5 SKISTAR INTERIM REPORT SEP 2022-MAY 2023 ===== SIDA 6 ===== SUSTAINABILITY Sustainability and responsible entrepreneurship are an integral part of SkiStar’s strategy, business model, gover- nance and culture. SkiStar’s strategic framework is built on three foundations: safe & secure, sustainability and employees & culture. These foundations permeate everything we do and are a cornerstone of our business. SkiStar’s sustainability focus areas are Activity & Recreation, Ecosystem & Impact and Dialogue & Interaction. About the sustainability section of this Interim Report This is a quarterly follow-up of SkiStar’s sustainability work. The starting point is SkiStar’s annual sustainability report. The sustainability section has not been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 6, Section 1, of the Annual Accounts Act or the GRI guidelines and does not therefore address all issues. An overview of the sustainability initiatives is published annually in the sustainability report. Read more at: https://www.skistar.com/ en/corporate/sustainability/. News during the Quarter and the First Nine Months Activity & Recreation • SkiStar wants more people to be able to enjoy the ski slopes, with a stable basic training that makes everyone feel safe and secure. During the winter season 2022/23, over 103,000 (95,000) children and adults participated in SkiStar’s ski school training. • To make it possible for more children to discover the mountains, skiing, the ski school and ski rentals are free for children up to the age of six during Valle’s Winter Weeks. More than 39,000 (41,000) children attended SkiStar’s ski schools during Valle’s Winter Weeks during the 2022/23 winter season. Ecosystem & Impact • Our collaboration with Keep Sweden Tidy and Keep Norway Tidy conti- nued during the previous quarter. All SkiStar employees participated in a cleaning day at all destinations on 31 May and collected just over eight ton- nes of litter during the day, which was an increase of 36 percent compared with the previous year. • Promoting a circular economy is an important aspect of SkiStar’s ability to achieve its climate goals. SkiStar’s accommodation agency and ski and bicycle rentals are two examples of circular parts of the operations. During the winter season, more than 346,000 (360,000) ski packages were rented out. During the 2022/23 season, we also started SkiStar Pre-used in SkiStarshop selling used skis and bicycles. Over 330 pairs were sold for an amount totalling SEK 730 thousand. During the winter break, a service ren- ting out ski clothing was launched, in Hundfjället. 60 bookings were made over the spring. • During the quarter, SkiStar concluded an agreement with Jämtkraft regarding the purchase of renewable energy and the possibility of self-pro- duced electricity in the form of locally-produced wind power in Vemdalen. It is estimated that the self-produced electricity will correspond to 25 percent of the Company’s annual electricity consumption. Furthermore, we plan to work together with Jämkraft to carry out a feasibility study for a solar park in Sälen. Dialogue & Interaction • During the quarter, SkiStar pursued the issue of new rules for staff accommodation in the hospitality sector together with the municipalities in Sweden where SkiStar operates. This is one of several important initiatives where a number of stakeholders can support each other and help each other in our destinations.

The consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The Parent Company’s accounts were prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board’s RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. The accounting policies and methods of calculation applied for the Group and Parent Company are the same as those applied in preparing the most recent annual accounts and consoli- dated financial statements. Preparation of financial statements in compliance with IFRS requires Company management to make accounting estimates and judgements, as well as to make assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the carrying amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expen- se. The actual outcome may differ from these estimates and assumptions. Certain statements contained in this report are forward-looking and reflect the current assessments of the Company and Board of Directors as regards future circumstances. None of the new IFRS standards, amended standards and interpretations applicable from 1 September 2022 have had a material impact on the fiancial reporting of the Group or the Parent Company. No new or changed standards have been applied prematurely.

Sälen, 20 June 2023 Stefan Sjöstrand CEO AUDITOR'S REPORT SkiStar AB (publ), reg. no 556093-6949 Introduction We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Skistar AB (publ) as of 31 May 2023 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 app- lying 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.
