Management report
Babylon
Babylon is continuing its push to change the health care sector as we know it, standing on the barricades of a sector that is changing at lightspeed. Again 10 years of change is happening at the change of 10 days. Lots of work remains but Babylon is likely the most important company in the space in the world today.
The company is working to sign contracts worth annual revenues of some USD 600 mln by December this year. It takes some time for a contract to start generating revenues but the company believes it will convert enough to reach some USD 250 mln in revenues next year and possibly as much as USD 400 mln, potentially growing to as much as USD 900 mln in 2022.

We have spoken at length on Voi being in some kind of sweet spot in this Covid environment that we are in. Travelers want to move around their cities using a means of transportation that is as secure as possible in terms of the virus. This means walking, biking, driving or using e-scooters. Cities want to limit the use of public transport to stop the spread of the virus and at the same time free up their streets from cars. This also means e-scooters.
Again, UK is the best example of how Covid 19 has accelerated the use of e-scooter platforms. It is great to see that Voi is killing it in this country, by far the leader in terms of winning licenses, many of them exclusive.
With the new generation of scooters unit economics have transformed through longer lifetime and the easier/ cheaper charging operation on the back of swappable batteries which have allowed the company to show EBITDA positive results during a few consecutive months since July.
All of this means that Voi now is attracting serious attention from 800k gorilla type of investors in the US and we are expecting the company to announce its next round materially faster than initially envisaged, leaving the competition scrambling in every sense.
Inturn
We have invested USD 6 mln in Inturn which together with the initial USD 5 mln in has rendered us a 10% stake in this exciting company. Inturn is also our very first investment into the US although their product is truly global.
Inturn is a SaaS enabled B2B marketplace for inventory disposition. Amazingly, large brands exit their unsold inventory in arcane ways with enormous room for improvement in terms of optimizing for efficiency, speed, price, protection of brand etc.
Inturn, an SAP Endorsed App, is the leading platform to manage and optimize inventory disposition, in the world! And the world is large! This is an annual USD 170 bln market of excess inventory in consumer categories and significantly larger across all categories. The software has helped provide up to 85% cost reduction and up to 10% margin recovery. Simplistically at the Inturn marketplace large brands like Levi's and Unilever sell their slow moving or excess inventory to a range of different business buyers. Inturn's take rate is at this stage small, 1% growing to 2% but we believe it has the opportunity to grow as the market becomes broader and more liquid with 5% being realistic.
Inturn has gained traction within fashion and apparel which is a USD 75 bln opportunity. In fact 5 of the 10 largest global brands transacted on the platform in 2019. The company has also expanded its offering into FMCG categories such as food & beverage, personal care and health & beauty. The product as such is industry-agnostic and clearly scalable across multiple verticals.
Numan
We during the quarter continued to invest into Numan, bringing our total USD investment to 4.6 mln giving us a 20% stake in the company. Numan is Europe's leading online health clinic for men. One US equivalent just listed at a USD 500 mln valuation and the other one is expected to go public at a USD 1.6 bln price. We have Numan marked at company valuation of USD 50 mln. There is upside…
Capital Markets Week
Finally, we want to thank everyone who participated in our Capital Markets Week October 12-16 where we virtually hosted Babylon, BlaBlaCar, Voi, Gett and SWVL to present. We had a great turn out with interesting presentations and lots of insightful questions from the audience. If you missed it, I encourage you to watch the recordings which are available through the VNV website. Next time, fingers crossed, we can all meet in person again!

Current portfolio
During the third quarter of 2020, global markets have continued to see volatility on the back of the global outbreak of Covid-19 earlier in 2020. During the quarter most cities had lifted the hard restrictions and activity gradually recovered. Signs of increased infection levels in various markets appeared towards the end of the quarter, but thus far the very har restrictions in late spring/early summer have not been reimposed. VNV Global's portfolio companies, to various degrees, have seen direct and indirect effects on their operations due to Covid-19.
Babylon
During the first nine months 2020, Babylon has continued to expand its services across markets and have also continued to see an elevated demand of their services on the back of Covid-19. In the US, Babylon has launched clinical services to approx. 3 million Americans in California, New York, Iowa, Missouri and Nevada with more to come. Babylon also launched a partnership with Mount Sinai Health Partners to serve 8.6 million New Yorkers. Babylon also expanded its service in Southeast Asia to six additional countries, now covering nearly 10 million Prudential members.
Babylon also invested in Higi, a consumer health engagement company, to increase access to Babylon services through 10k community and retail units within 5 miles of over 75% of the US population.
During the third quarter 2020, Babylon delivered 11.1k daily consultations, up 35.4% yoy. Global registrations reached 5.8 million, up from 3.8 million as per year-end 2019.
BlaBlaCar
Due to the different measures governments across Europe have introduced to limit the spread of Covid-19, BlaBlaCar has seen direct negative effects on the activity on their platform during the first nine months of 2020. In March, BlaBlaCar temporarily suspended all bus operations, on the back of this situation and is expected to resume operations as soon as practically. BlaBlaCar's main ride-sharing business has continued to operate, but given the measures in place across Europe during the second quarter, activity was very low in April/May. In June 2020, search intent on the BlaBlaCar platform in Spain and France recovered and surpassed levels during the same period in 2019. BlaBlaCar has a strong financial position and has also taken well balanced decisions during these volatile times, which allowed them a strong start of a recovery phase when markets started open up again in the end of the second quarter.
BlaBlaCar ended the third quarter with 98.8 mln members. During the third quarter of 2020 BlaBlaCar noted 14.3 mln passengers, which is a -29.8% decrease on the same quarter in 2019, severely impacted by Covid-19 related lockdowns. This represent a strong recovery compared with the second quarter which was down 71.3%.
Voi
In July 2020, Voi announced it had achieved double-digit EBITDA margins in June on the group level across its 40 markets in 11 countries. The company also announced it would raise up to USD 30 mln in new capital to enable further growth and expansion into newly opened UK market. VNV Global participated with USD 10 mln in the funding round alongside other existing and new investors that closed in August 2020. During the third quarter Voi has won several large pilot licenses in the UK, including West Midlands where Voi has an exclusive contract allowing them to deploy up to 10 thousand scooters.
Gett
In July 2020, Gett announced the completion of a USD 100 mln funding round. VNV Global participated with an additional USD 2.3 mln in May and another USD 3 mln in August 2020 as part of the final close of the round.
Numan
During the third quarter 2020 Numan closed a new GBP 10 mln series A round. VNV Global participated by converting existing convertible notes as well as injecting a smaller amount of new cash. The new round values VNV Global's stake in the company to USD 8.5 mln.
Inturn
During the third quarter 2020, VNV Global led a new funding round in Inturn. VNV invested an additional USD 6 mln in addition to the existing USD 5 mln note that was converted in connection of the round. Following the round VNV Global owns 10.1% of the company valued at USD 8.5 mln.
New investments during the third quarter
VNV Global did not complete any significant investments in new names during the third quarter 2020.
Liquidity management
The Company also has investments in money market funds, as part of its liquidity management operations. As per September 30, 2020, the liquidity management investments are valued at USD 15.77 mln (2019: 22.99), based on the latest NAV of each fund and bond's market value.

The fair value of financial instruments is measured by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy
- Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabili- ties (level 1).
- Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (level 2).
- Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs) (level 3).
See Financial report H1 2020/section "Business combination under control: Accounting policies" for more information.

During the third quarter of 2020, VNV invested an additional USD 3.0 in Gett which was already classified as a level 3 investment. The level 3 investments are either based on valuation models, usually using EBITDA and revenue multiples of comparable listed peers or transactions that include more uncertainty given the time elapsed since it closed or structure of the transactions.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.
The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximize the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in
level 2. If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.
Investments in assets that are not traded on any market will be held at fair value determined by recent transactions made at prevailing market conditions or different valuation models depending on the characteristics of the company as well as the nature and risks of the investment. These different techniques may include discounted cash flow valuation (DCF), exit-multiple valuation, also referred to as Leveraged Buyout (LBO) valuation, asset-based valuation as well as forward-looking multiples valuation based on comparable traded companies. Usually, transaction-based valuations are kept unchanged for a period of 12 months unless there is cause for a significant change in valuation. After 12 months, the Group usually derives fair value for non-traded assets through any of the models described above.
The validity of valuations based on a transaction is inevitably eroded over time, since the price at which the investment was made reflects the conditions that existed on the transaction date. At each reporting date, possible changes or events subsequent to the relevant transaction are assessed and if this assessment implies a change in the investment's fair value, the valuation is adjusted accordingly. No significant events in the portfolio companies, which have had an impact on the valuations, has occurred since the latest transactions except as described below. The transaction-based valuations are also frequently assessed using multiples of comparable traded companies for each unlisted investment or other valuation models when warranted.
The outstanding convertible notes are valued at nominal value including accrued interest, which is deemed to correspond to fair value.
VNV Global follows a structured process in assessing the valuation of its unlisted investments. VNV Global evaluates company specific and external data relating to each specific investment on a monthly basis. The data is then assessed at monthly and quarterly valuation meetings by senior manage- ment. If internal or external factors are deemed to be significant further assessment is undertaken and the specific investment is revalued to the best fair value estimate. Revaluations are approved by the Board of Directors in connection with the Company's financial reports.
Babylon
As per September 30, 2020, VNV Global values its 10.8% ownership in Babylon, based on a forward-looking EV/Revenue model, at USD 287.4 mln. VNV Global has invested USD 92.6 mln in the company and it is classified as a level 3 investment. The EV/Revenue model reflects better fair value of the company on the back of Covid-19 during 9M20 than valuation based on latest transaction used in December 31, 2019. On the back of Covid-19 the
company has seen higher demand of its services and signed a number of new deals and expanded existing contracts.
The peer group includes 10 digital health related companies including Livongo, Teladoc, PA Good Doctor, to name a few. The unadjusted median multiple of the peer group is 9.4x. The multiple used in the model has been discounted significantly to reflect the higher uncertainty in VNV Global's forward -looking revenue estimate compared with the more mature companies in the peer group.
BlaBlaCar
As per September 30, 2020, VNV Global values its 8.7% ownership in BlaBlaCar, based on a forward-looking EV/Revenue model, at USD 190.2 mln. VNV Global has invested USD 122.4 mln in the company and it is classified as a level 3 investment. The model looks at EV/Revenue multiples for a peer group including high margin marketplace businesses such as Auto Trader, REA Group, Head Hunter, to name a few that has been adjusted to better reflect BlaBlaCar's business model which comprise of both a high margin C2C market place and lower margin bus operations. The model has also been adjusted to reflect the direct negative impact of Covid-19 expected on the back of Covid-19.Short-term impacts include suspended bus operations across Europe because of city and nation-widelock-downs. The unadjusted median multiple of the peer group relevant to the c2c ridesharing marketplace is 11.4x. The implied revenue multiple for the bus operations is 4.8x.
Gett
As per September 30, 2020, VNV Global values Gett based on a forward -looking revenue multiple-based valuation at USD 91.1 mln. VNV Global owns 5.6% of Gett on a fully diluted basis and believes that the revenue multiple valuations accounting for the company's preference structure is the best fair value estimate. The company is classified as a level 3 invest- ment. Compared to the company's listed peers Uber and Lyft, which show significant losses, Gett became operationally profitable globally in December last year and has grown since then. It is on track to become cashflow positive despite Covid-19 impacts.
Voi
As per September 30, 2020, VNV Global values Voi based on the latest funding round closed in July 2020, where existing and new investors also participated, at USD 67.1 mln.

diluted basis and classified as a level 2 investment. Despite Covid-19, which negatively impacted Voi's operations in the short term, with suspended operations in cities, has turned in a more positive tune with end of lockdowns. The company's long-term potential remains also intact due to Voi's strong balance sheet.
Property Finder

VNV Global owns 9.5% of Property Finder on a fully diluted basis and believes that the revenue multiple valuation is the best fair value estimate.

As per September 30, 2020, Hemnet is valued at USD 28.5 mln and is classified as a level 3 investment, based on a forward-looking EV/EBITDA valuation model.

Notes to the financial statements
There are three running long-termshare-based incentive programs for management and key personnel in the VNV Global Group. The 2018 program is linked to the long-term performance of the Company's Net Asset Value, the 2019 and 2020 programs are linked to the long-term performance of both the Company's Net Asset Value and of the VNV Global share price.
Outstanding program 2018
Participants in the 3-year 2018 program purchased shares (Swedish Depository Receipts) in the Company. For each purchased share, participants are entitled to receive additional shares, so-called performance shares, free of charge, subject to fulfillment of performance conditions set by the Board of Directors based on the Company's Net Asset Value.
The rights to receive shares automatically convert into common shares at the end of the program at an exercise price of nil. The participants do not receive any dividends and are not entitled to vote in relation to the rights to receive shares during the vesting period. If a participant ceases to be employed by the Group within this period, the rights will be forfeited, except in limited circumstances that are approved by the board on a case-by-case basis.
The fair value of the depository receipts on the grant date was calculated on the basis of the market price of the Company's depository receipts on the grant date per depository receipt without adjustment for any dividends during the vesting period.
Outstanding programs 2019 and 2020
Similarly, to the 2018 program, participants in the five-year 2019 and 2020 programs purchased shares in the Company.
For each purchased share, participants are entitled to subscribe for newly issued redeemable common shares (2019 and 2020 Plan Shares) in the Company. Depending on the performance of both the Company's Net Asset Value and of the VNV Global share price, the 2019 and 2020 Plan Shares will be redeemed or reclassified as ordinary common shares and represented by Swedish Depository Receipts, provided certain performance conditions have been fulfilled. If the performance conditions have not been fulfilled, then the plan shares will be redeemed.
The participants will be compensated for dividends and other value transfers to the shareholders. The participants are also entitled to vote for their 2019 and 2020 Plan Shares during the measurement period.
If a participant ceases to be employed by the Group within this period, the plan shares will be redeemed, unless otherwise resolved by the Board on a case-by-case basis.
The fair value of the 2019 and 2020 Plan Shares on the grant date was calculated on the basis of the market price of the Company's depository receipts on the grant date and prevailing market conditions by using a Monte Carlo Valuation Method.
To carry through the incentive program, the Company subsidized the subscription price payable by the incentive program participants for the 2019 Plan Shares. The subsidy for LTIP 2019 amounted to USD 2.6 mln and for LTIP 2020 the subsidy amounted to USD 0.3 mln, social fees excluded, for the cost of acquiring plan shares. The cost for financing and acquiring plan shares is expensed directly.
The Company also compensated participants for the tax impact arising from the fact that the subscription price was below fair market value. The cost of this subsidy, social fee excluded, amounts to USD 1 mln for LTIP 2019 and USD 0.01 mln for LTIP 2020 and will be expensed over five years, treated as vesting expense.
Completed program 2017
On March 24, 2020, the Board of Directors determined that the development of the Company's Net Asset Value over the performance measurement period of LTIP 2017 (January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2019), meets the so-called target level, whereby each savings share held by program participants throughout the vesting period (until March 31, 2020) was allocated of five performance shares free of charge. As a result, following adjustment for the redemption program of SEK 25 per share, participants in LTIP 2017 received a total of 330,750 shares in May 2020.
Accounting principles
In accordance with IFRS 2, the costs for the program, including social fees, will be reported over the income statement during the program's vesting period. The value is recognized in the income statement as a personnel cost on-line operating expenses, allocated over the vesting period with a corresponding increase in equity. The recognized cost corresponds to the fair value of the estimated number of shares that are expected to vest. This cost is adjusted in subsequent periods to reflect the actual number of vested shares. However, no adjustment is made when shares expire only because share price-related conditions do not reach the level.

Events after the reporting period
No significant events have occurred after the end of the reporting period.

Key and Alternative
Performance Measures
Group
Alternative Performance Measures (APM) apply the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) guidelines.
APMs are financial measures other than financial measures defined or specified by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
VNV Global regularly uses alternative performance measures to enhance comparability from period to period and to give deeper information and provide meaningful supplemental information to analysts, investors and other parties.
It is important to know that not all companies calculate alternative performance measures identically, therefore these measurements have limitations and should not be used as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with IFRS.
Definitions of all APMs used are found below.
IFRS-defined performance measurements (not alternative performance measurements)
PerformanceDefinitions measurements
Earnings per share, USD When calculating earnings per share, the average number of shares is based on average outstanding common shares. 2019 and 2020 Plan Shares, issued to participants in the Company's 2019 and 2020 long-termshare-based Incentive programs (LTIP 2019 and 2020), are not treated as outstanding common shares and thus are not included in the weighted calcu- lation. The issue of 2019 and 2020 Plan Shares is however recognized as an

Diluted earnings per share When calculating diluted earnings per share, the average number of common
USDshares is adjusted to consider the effects of potential dilutive common shares that have been offered to employees, originating during the reported periods from share-based incentive programs. Dilutions from share-based incentive programs affect the number of shares and only occur when the incentive program performance conditions of the respective programs are fulfilled.

Report on Review of Interim Financial Information
Introduction
We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of VNV Global AB (publ) as of September 30, 2020. The board of directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34. 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. 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.
