ODIN Europa Året som gick 2018 var året då resultaten och aktiekurserna i Europa utvecklades i olika riktningar. Resultatet ökade medan den europeiska aktiemarknaden avslutade året som en av de svagaste i världen. Avkastningen för ODIN Europa blev därmed svag. Med tanke på fondens aktiva mandat ligger en stor avvikelse från indexet i fondens natur. Avkastningen kommer successivt och bör ses över längre tidshorisonter. Den europeiska aktiemarknaden har generellt varit utmanande och små och medelstora företag har varit under särskilt stark säljpress. Det har drabbat fondens avkastning. Vi är långsiktiga och tålmodiga. Vi ser att den underliggande utvecklingen i de företag vi äger är positiv och har utnyttjat en depressiv marknad för att öka vår position i flera av dessa företag. Avkastningen drivs av värdeskapande i fondens bolag (resultatökning + utdelning) och omvärdering. Vårt fokus ligger på bolagens värdeskapande. Det har varit tillfredsställande under 2018, om än något svagare än väntat i början av året. Företagens resultat ökade med 6 procent*, mätt i lokal valuta. Vi fick närmare 3 procent av fondens värde i utdelning. Tillväxten i den europeiska ekonomin har försvagats. Stor optimism och framtidstro vändes till pessimism och osäkerhet under året. Orsaken är en sällsynt stark cocktail av (geo)politisk oro. När detta skrivs finns det fortfarande inget besked om vilken relation Storbritannien ska ha till EU. I Frankrike demonstrerar de gula västarna mot ekonomisk ojämlikhet och svag köpkraft. EUs tillväxtmaskin Tyskland upplever också gnissel i maskineriet. En stark exportnedgång och produktionsstopp inom bilindustrin har under hösten dämpat tillväxten kraftigt. I Europas tredje största ekonomi, Italien, var många rädda för att skuldnivåerna, de stigande statsräntorna och den låsta budgetsituationen skulle skapa problem. Dessutom har vi det pyrande handelskriget mellan USA och Kina. Det är lätt att bli nedstämd av den här blandningen. Rädsla och oro påverkar aktiemarknaden just nu. Grundläggande förutsättningar får mindre uppmärksamhet. Globala investerare är nu kraftigt underviktade i europeiska aktier. Historiskt har det inte varit en dum idé att investera i Europa när stämningen har varit så svag som den nu är. Osäkerheten är stor när vi går in i 2019, men glöm inte att politiska resultat sällan leder till en bestående påverkan på den globala ekonomiska tillväxten.

ODIN Europa Starka kort När vi utvärderar utvecklingen i de bolag vi äger är det inte kursutvecklingen som vi i första hand tittar på. Vi vet att det på kort sikt inte alltid finns någon koppling mellan underliggande utveckling och aktieavkastning. På lång sikt däremot kommer välskötta bolag att belönas med en god aktiekursutveckling. De företag som utvecklats bäst under 2018 är de som är exponerade mot starka outsourcingtrender. Franska Teleperformance och nederländska IMCD är värda att lyfta fram i det här sammanhanget. Teleperformance, som är en av fondens största investeringar, är inne på sitt 25:e kvartal med en organisk tillväxt på 6 12 procent och aktien är det innehav som bidrar bäst till fonden i år. Företaget drar nytta av en stark underliggande trend, nämligen outsourcing av kundservicelösningar. Företaget klarar att upprätthålla en lönsamhet som ligger en bra bit över konkurrenternas. Dessutom kompletterar företaget tillväxten genom förvärv som ökar värdet. IMCD är en av världens största distributörer av specialkemikalier. Ökad outsourcing av distribution och försäljning från kemikalieproducenterna samt betydande förvärvsmöjligheter på en mycket fragmenterad marknad är viktiga drivkrafter för tillväxt. I år har företaget också ökat sin marknadsandel och sin omsättning med respektabla 25 procent. Vårt möte med finanschefen mot slutet av året stärkte det goda intrycket av bolaget och dess utsikter. IMCD är fondens fjärde största position. Dignity är Storbritanniens näst största begravnings- och kremeringsaktör och stod för den största besvikelsen under 2018. Bolaget var tvunget att sänka priserna på delar av sina tjänster i början av året för att behålla sin marknadsposition. Det kom som en överraskning för oss. Vi underskattade prispressen på marknaden och har uppenbart gjort en felbedömning. Försäljningen minskar svagt, men på grund av den stora andelen fasta kostnader minskar årets resultat med en tredjedel. Den brittiska konkurrensmyndigheten har inlett en översyn av prisnivån och prisutvecklingen i branschen. Vår investeringstes har förändrats, men vi anser att den negativa kursreaktionen är överdrivet stor. Vi har ökat vår position marginellt, men behåller den fortsatt som fondens minsta position. Om vi tittar på fondens kursutveckling jämfört med marknaden, så beror underavkastningen mer på bolagsval än sektorexponering. Det finns inga systematiska avvikelser som vi kan lägga skulden på, förutom att vi föredrar små och medelstora företag, som har varit särskilt svaga. Tre företag går inte att undvika i det här sammanhanget. Det tyska däck- och teknikföretaget Continental har påverkats av kortsiktiga utmaningar kopplade till den europeiska bilproduktionen och övergången till nya utsläppstester och framstår som irrationellt lågt värderat med tanke på företagets position och tillväxtmöjligheter. Vi har ökat vår position i företaget. Det brittiska finansbolaget Arrow Global utvecklas mycket bra vad gäller fundamenta, men aktiekursen är under stor press från shorters, som använder den bristfälliga transparensen i rapporteringen för att skapa oro kring affärsmodellens hållbarhet. Hela sektorn är drabbad. Brexitoron gör inte situationen bättre. Vi ser inga stora konsekvenser för Arrow. Vi tillbringade en hel dag hos företaget i november och vår investeringstes ligger kvar. Vi har ökat vår position i företaget. Aktiekursen i den österrikiska sensorledaren AMS har varit mycket volatil under de senaste åren. Vi har använt aktiekursens fluktuationer för att genomföra bra försäljningar under 2017 och vad vi anser är bra köp under 2018. Den underliggande utvecklingen är solid, med en fördubbling av årsresultatet för 2018. Aktien har fallit mot bakgrund av osäkerhet kring möjliga konsekvenser av ett handelskrig samt en svag försäljning för nya Apple-telefoner (Ams största kund). Företagets ledande position inom avancerade sensorer kombinerat med starka underliggande tillväxtdrivande faktorer gör att vi vill äga aktien, trots den stora cyklikaliteten och en koncentrerad kundportfölj.

ODIN Europa Förändringar i portföljen Vi tror att en av vägarna till god långsiktig avkastning är tålamod och begränsad handel. Så länge som den underliggande utvecklingen i de företag vi äger är god har vi ökat våra positioner. Exempel på detta är Fresenius, Continental, Lectra, Ams, Arrow och Reckitt Benckiser. Vi har sålt två företag det brittiska dryckesvaruföretaget Diageo och den italienska kabeltillverkaren Prysmian. Det förstnämnda såldes mot bakgrund av hög värdering och bättre investeringsmöjligheter inom andra delar av konsumtionssektorn. Det senare såldes när vi tappade tron på deras förmåga till lönsam tillväxt inom telekom, vilket var en viktig del av vår investeringstes. Vi har under året köpt två nya företag, brittiska Burford Capital och norska Subsea 7. Burford Capital är ett bolag som verkar i skärningspunkten mellan juridik och finans. Bolaget består av uppemot 50 juridiska experter som utvärderar och bistår med finansiering av utvalda rättstvister mot en andel av den eventuella ersättningen. Marknaden för extern finansiering av rättstvister är relativt omogen men på kraftig frammarsch. Advokatbyråerna och kunderna (kärandena) har starka ekonomiska incitament att nyttja extern finansiering. Burford har på senare år intagit en ledande position på marknaden och har ett starkt varumärke som är känt i branschen. Till skillnad från andra typer av investeringar hänger Burfords resultat inte ihop med ekonomiska cykler och bidrar därmed till god riskspridning i fonden. Subsea 7 är ett av världens ledande företag vad gäller prospektering, konstruktion och tjänster inom undervattensteknik. Företaget är främst en underleverantör till energisektorn, från olja och gas till förnybar energi och kraftförsörjning. Företaget är verksamt i en bransch som har drabbats hårt av fallande råvarupriser under de senaste åren. Företagets ledning har ändå visat sig mycket skickliga på att hantera en nedgång och har byggt upp en stor likviditet som de har använt för att göra en rad strategiska förvärv. Det har de klarat tack vare ett starkt fokus på kassaflöde och tidiga kostnadsminskningar. Förvärven har stärkt deras position inom olja och gas, men också avsevärt inom förnybar energi. Det har hjälpt företaget att växa. Företaget rapporterar kontinuerligt om nya kontrakt som hjälper till att bygga upp orderboken. I slutet av 2018 har företaget köpt tillbaka egna aktier till 40 procents rabatt av bokförda värden. Vi tror att detta visar på god kapitalallokering och att företaget är kraftigt undervärderat.

ODIN Europa Framtidutsikter och strategi Vi går in i 2019 med en rad osäkerhetsfaktorer av (geo)politisk typ hängande över oss. Antalet möjliga utfall är många. Det finns åtminstone ett tvåsiffrigt antal möjliga utfall av Brexitröran. Sämsta resultat är förmodligen att Storbritannien lämnar EU utan en uppgörelse. Handelskriget kan eskalera eller så inser Trump att han inte har råd med ett fullskaligt handelskrig som skadar den amerikanska ekonomin inför valet 2020. De här två faktorerna kommer utan tvekan att påverka aktiemarknaden i den ena eller andra riktningen. En stor del av osäkerheten verkar redan ha tagits ut och värderingen av europeiska aktier vittnar om att framtidsprognoserna är mycket pessimistiska. Den ekonomiska tillväxten i Europa ser ut att bli lägre under 2019 jämfört med 2018. Vi ser dock inga tendenser till bubblor i ekonomin. Skuldsättningen bland företag och privatpersoner är lägre än i jämförbara regioner. Det finns ledig kapacitet i ekonomin, vilket sannolikt kommer att hålla nere lönetillväxten, inflationen och räntorna. Ett lägre oljepris är också positivt för regionen. Det är viktigt att poängtera att vi lägger ned mycket små insatser för att förutspå aktiemarknadens eller ekonomins utveckling under det kommande året. Vårt fokus riktar sig på de drygt trettio bolag vi har i fonden. Vi har stor tro på att dessa bolag kan växa med god avkastning på investerat kapital över tid. Marknadens förväntningar på resultatökningen i fondens bolag ligger på 8 procent för 2019. Osäkerheten i sådana skattningar är hög. Vi räknar med att utdelning från bolagen mätt mot bolagens storlek kommer att ligga på samma nivåer som under 2018, dvs. 2 4 procent. Vi försöker inte imitera marknaden utan strävar efter att upprätthålla en brett sammansatt portfölj med avseende på produkter, tjänster, slutmarknader och kundgrupper. Vi har minskat vår exponering för cykliska konsumtionsvaror något, men har fortfarande en relativt stor andel mot denna typ av företag. Omkring hälften av fonden är investerad i relativt defensiva förväntningsmodeller. De kommer sannolikt att klara sig bra under en ekonomisk nedgång. Vi är investerade i bolag som är väl positionerade på marknader som uppvisar alla tecken på fortsatt tillväxt. En åldrande europeisk befolkning, krav på reducerade växthusgaser, ständigt ökande datamängder, bankreglering, outsourcing samt en växande medelklass i Asien, kommer sannolikt att vara starka och förutsägbara tillväxtfaktorer under många år framöver. Vi är också investerade i flera bolag med dominerande positioner på fragmenterade marknader, vilket kan stärka omsättningen genom värdeökande förvärv. Vi fokuserar på kvalitetsbolag med avseende på drift, balansräkning och ledning. Det här är bolag som kan sysselsätta nytt kapital med en avkastningsnivå betydligt över avkastningskravet. Vi tror att dessa bolags värdeskapande återspeglas i stigande aktiekurser över tid. Vi anser att blandningen av fortsatt värdeskapande i fondens bolag och fallande aktiekurser har gjort värderingen av fonden attraktiv. Vi menar att bolagen är värda betydligt mer än de värderas till på aktiemarknaden per idag. Fonden värderas till 14,5 gånger innevarande års resultat, genererar en avkastning på eget kapital på nästan 20 procent och är lågt belånad med en nettoskuld i förhållande till rörelseresultatet på under 1. Vi anser att detta är attraktivt med tanke på bolagens tillväxtprognoser.

Roche Company description Roche is a Swiss based pharmaceuticals and diagnostics company. The company is the global market leader in the area of oncology (cancer) drugs and has demonstrated its commitment to defending this position through innovation. Why invested? The long term growth dynamics are attractive given their strong pipeline of products and possible revolutionary treatment options for cancer. Roche has developed a strong set of new oncology drugs that will replace the current portfolio as patents expire. High exposure to biotechnology derived products makes the barriers to entry substantial. Despite very high spending on research and development the company enjoys sector leading profitability. The ongoing concentration of the drugs portfolio offers a margin leverage potential. Roche has increased its dividend for 30 consecutive years a track record only shared by a handful European companies. 160 140 120 100 80 60 40 20 Performance - last 5 years 0 jan-14 jan-15 jan-16 jan-17 jan-18 Roche Holding Ltd Genusssch.

Reckitt Benckiser Company description Reckitt Benckiser is a fast-moving consumer goods company with a strong market position in consumer health and home care products. The portfolio consists of strong brands like Durex, Vanish, Scholl, Strepsils and Clearasil. Why invested? Reckitt has a track record of high growth and margins resulting from a strategy of focusing on a limited number of power brands. The company has articulated a clear strategy to focus on faster-growing consumer health. There are multiple near-term issues concerning investors. The acquisition of the nutrition company Mead Johnson in 2017 was not well received by the market. Cost savings and a recovery of the top line is however starting contribute to the value creation. We see this as a standout opportunity to invest in one of the fastest growing companies in global staples, with superior return on capital and cash generation.

Why invested? Automation and productivity markets are attractive growth markets and we believe Spectris is the best player in the industry. Due to its leadership in niche businesses, Spectris enjoys very high margins. With a debtfree balance sheet Spectris remains well positioned to take advantage of further acquistions, which have historically provided an average 4 percent growth contribution. We have started to see improving capex spending globally. This will clearly benefit Spectris in the short term. The automation trend is the key driver longer term.

Continental Company description Continental is the largest automotive supplier in the world with over 140 years of history. 3 out of 4 cars globally have Continental content. Why invested? We view Continental as one of the highest quality and best-positioned car suppliers, exposed to some of the most attractive segments of the component industry. It is also the most efficient mid-size tyre maker with a great non-tyre rubber business. This good balance between different types of businesses provides Continental with a more stable backdrop than most pure plays among suppliers. Continental will continue to outperform global car production due to the shift to more autonomous vehicles and increased content related to emission reduction and safety. Both supported by mandatory targets/laws set by authorities worldwide. Confidence has been shaken in the short term amid a challenging environment for automotive stocks. We have increased our position.

Novo Nordisk 250 Performance - last 5 years Company description: Novo Nordisk is the world leader in diabetes care with the broadest diabetes product portfolio in the industry, including the most advanced products within the area of insulin delivery systems. In addition, Novo has a leading position within areas such as coagulation disorders, growth disorders and hormone replacement therapy. Why invested? The strong growth in earnings reflects the strong growing markets driven by sustainable structural factors; the position as a global leader; scale effects coupled with capital and technological barriers to entry. High profitability is leading to considerable free cash flow generation. Obesity is the main growth driver for diabetes prevalence and thereby a very important long-term growth driver for Novo Nordisk. Following three years of volatility and pricing pressure, we think Novo will enter a new period of growth. Key growth drivers going forward will be the new launches in GLP-1 franchise Ozempic and oral semaglutide. Pricing pressure should be lessening as well. 200 150 100 50 0 jan-14 jan-15 jan-16 jan-17 jan-18 Novo Nordisk A/S Class B Novo Nordisk A/S Class B MSCI Europe Health Care /Pharmaceuticals Market Value (mill.) 759,500 Price 310.00 Price currency DKK Net debt (mill.) -16,308 Reporting currency DKK Enterprise Value (mill.) 743,192 FX rate (NOK) 1.33 Year end (December) 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018E 2019E Sales (mill.) 83,572 88,806 107,927 111,780 111,696 111,805 117,855 EBIT (Operating Income - mill.) 30,840 34,235 46,268 48,224 48,238 47,771 51,008 Net Income (reported - mill.) 25,184 26,481 34,860 37,925 38,130 38,974 40,134 Equity 42,569 40,294 46,969 45,269 49,815 54,716 58,920 Return on Equity (%) 59.2 % 65.7 % 74.2 % 83.8 % 76.5 % 71.2 % 68.1 % EPS 9.4 10.1 13.6 15.0 15.4 16.1 17.0 Book value per share 16.1 15.5 18.4 18.1 20.4 22.3 25.0 DPS 4.5 5.0 6.4 7.6 7.9 8.1 8.5 Price/Earnings 21.1 25.8 29.5 17.0 21.7 19.2 18.3 Price/Book Value 12.4 16.8 21.7 14.1 16.4 13.9 12.4 EV/EBIT 16.9 19.6 21.9 13.0 16.8 15.6 14.6 Dividend Yield (%) 2.3 % 1.9 % 1.6 % 3.0 % 2.3 % 2.6 % 2.7 %

John Wood Group Company description Wood is one of the world s leading engineering, project management and consultancy companies for the oil and gas, mining, clean energy, environment and infrastructure markets Why invested? We like the diversified, asset light and high focus on reimbursable prizing model which gives a less risky and more stable earnings stream than most peers. We believe this is key in a cyclical market such as the oil and gas market which account of more than half of the company s revenue. Wood is a merger between John Wood Group and Amec FW which is set to materialize considerable synergies that are margin accretive.

We think the reorganization is about to bear fruits. The company has an under-leveraged and extremely robust balance sheet as well as a strong free cash flow generation.

The investment thesis remains strong for European debt purchasers and -collectors given the size of the non-performing-loan (NPL) market and the European regulators focus on resolving this issue. Arrow has evolved into a European player of scale through acquisitions, where we see continued growth due to a highly fragmented market. Having invested heavily in building its Asset Management & Servicing capabilities, the company is aiming to double the revenue contribution from this capital light business over the next years. Arrow retains a strong balance sheet with one of the lowest cost of funds in the industry at 3.9% and no debt refinancing requirements until 2024.

Richemont Company description Richemont is the global leader in the «hard luxury» space - watches and jewelry. The diverse portfolio consists of prestige brands like Cartier, Piaget, IWC, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Montblanc, Vacheron Constantin and Panerai. Why invested? The barriers to entry are high as many of these brands have been in existence since the 1700 s, giving heritage and pricing power that are very hard to emulate.

Svenska Handelsbanken AB Class A MSCI Europe No European bank can show the same history of low loan losses, solidity and profitability as Handelsbanken. We are impressed by the decentralized banking model and the growth in UK shows that it works also outside of Sweden. The company will continue to execute on their low cost banking model and will probably outgrow the sector in the coming years. All employees are major shareholders due to the pension system «Oktogonen». We think this gives the bank an edge on culture and incentives. Digitalization trends is a big question mark.

Automation of the textile industry in China, increased leather usage, increasing number of airbags in autos and personalization of apparel products being the most important growth drivers. The business model is safe and balanced, with sound diversification of endmarkets and with recurring revenues accounting for nearly 60% of sales and increasing by more than 5% per annum.

ING Group Company description ING Group as a is a Dutch multinational banking and financial services corporation headquartered in Amsterdam. Why invested? ING is a pure play, low risk bank, with 55% of earnings coming from retail banking. The majority of earnings is derived from the Northern European countries. ING s ability to generate deposits outside the Netherlands and a relatively low loan to deposits ratio gives it a strategic advantage over its domestic Dutch competitors. We like it s customer-centric focus, innovative culture and front-runner status in digital solutions in Europe. This gives ING more sustainable competitive advantage than other banks. The cost and risk focus of the group alongside its capital position should enable ING to deliver on its progressive dividend policy. ING is relatively dependent on the dutch economy and housing market.

AMS AG Company description Ams is the global leader in sensors and sensor solutions. It serves leading OEMs within consumer and communication, automotive, industrial and medical end markets. 600 500 400 300 200 100 Performance - last 5 years Why invested? We see very high growth potential in optical sensors, with growing sensor content in autos, consumer products, medical equipment and industrial applications. As the market leader with strong R&D competence and unique capabilities (source, package and sensor) we think Ams is very well positioned. The technological risk is limited by the strong barriers to entry that are present in analog semiconductor industry. The customer cluster risk is significant with high exposure to Apple. The stock price has been very weak recently, due to negative data points out of the Apple supply chain. We still believe growth should be strong in the coming years. This will be driven by 3D sensor implementation at some Android players (Huawei, Xiaomi and Oppo), ramp up of spectral sensing and power management. 0 jan-14 jan-15 jan-16 jan-17 jan-18 ams AG ams AG MSCI Europe Information Technology emiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment Market Value (mill.) 1,528 Price 18.10 Price currency CHF Net debt (mill.) 1,567 Reporting currency EUR Enterprise Value (mill.) 3,095 FX rate (NOK) 8.82 Year end (December) 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018E 2019E Sales (mill.) 378 464 623 550 1,064 1,456 1,784 EBIT (Operating Income - mill.) 65 116 146 61 64 117 216 Net Income (reported - mill.) 61 98 149 73 89 125 129 Equity 445 556 681 668 829 964 1,158 Return on Equity (%) 13.7 % 17.6 % 21.8 % 10.9 % 10.7 % 13.0 % 11.2 % EPS 1.1 1.7 2.3 1.7 1.3 1.7 2.2 Book value per share 8.0 9.7 10.8 10.8 11.9 11.9 13.9 DPS 0.3 0.3 0.6 0.3 0.4 0.3 0.4 Price/Earnings 19.4 20.9 14.6 17.3 70.5 9.5 7.4 Price/Book Value 2.7 3.7 3.1 2.7 7.5 1.4 1.2 EV/EBIT 18.3 17.9 16.4 34.3 119.4 23.4 12.7 Dividend Yield (%) 1.2 % 1.0 % 1.7 % 1.1 % 0.4 % 2.2 % 2.3 %

Dignity Company description Dignity is the second-largest provider of funeral services and the largest provider of cremations in the UK. Why invested? UK mortality rate, which has been falling in recent years, is now expected to stabilize and then begin to increase in the medium term driving an increased demand for funeral services. The typical client chooses a funeral provider based on reputation, as opposed to price. Dignity has historically been able to increase prices in excess of inflation. However, increased price awareness from online competitors and regulations on profitability for funeral companies and crematories have forced Dignity to reduce its price on standard services. We believe most of the negative adjustments have passed. The funeral services industry remains largely fragmented, with 70 percent of the market consisting of companies with less than one percent market share, and therefore still presents significant scope for Dignity to further consolidate the market. Strong and stable cash flow and returns at a very attractive price. 250 200 150 100 50 Performance - last 5 years 0 jan-14 jan-15 jan-16 jan-17 jan-18 Dignity plc Dignity plc MSCI Europe Consumer Discretionary /Diversified Consumer Services Market Value (mill.) 338 Price 6.75 Price currency GBP Net debt (mill.) 497 Reporting currency GBP Enterprise Value (mill.) 835 FX rate (NOK) 11.00 Year end (December) 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018E 2019E Sales (mill.) 230 257 269 314 324 311 309 EBIT (Operating Income - mill.) 67 78 85 102 103 74 69 Net Income (reported - mill.) 36 40-55 57 58 39 34 Equity 45 42-93 -4 46 73 96 Return on Equity (%) 80.0 % 95.7 % 59.5 % n/a n/a 53% 36% EPS 0.8 0.8-1.0 1.2 1.2 0.8 0.7 Book value per share 1.0 0.9-1.9-0.1 0.9 1.5 1.9 DPS 0.2 1.3 1.4 0.2 0.2 0.2 0.2 Price/Earnings 16.6 19.6-18.3 21.4 15.7 8.7 9.7 Price/Book Value 13.3 18.0-10.1-351.1 19.6 4.6 3.5 EV/EBIT 12.9 14.4 18.0 17.3 13.9 11.3 12.2 Dividend Yield (%) 1.5 % 8.2 % 7.3 % 1.0 % 1.3 % 3.6 % 3.6 %
