CEO’S COMMENTS
Focus on profitability
have high customer value, we will reduce the number of
components, consolidate our purchasing volumes to fewer
suppliers and reduce the time spent on pre-construction and
production.
In 2003 the focus was on building the foundations for a
more efficient and more profitable JM.
DEVELOPMENT IN 2003
At the end of 2002, deficiencies came to light in control,
oversight and implementation of a number of projects in
Stockholm. These events led to a total review of JM’s operations and working methods.
MARKING TIME
All major projects were examined in detail during the year.
Several projects were revised, and all in all this led to a very
low number of production starts during the first nine
months of the year.
IMPROVED CONTROL AND OVERSIGHT
A lot of effort has been put into improving the internal structures for control and oversight. Among other things we have
introduced new routines for project oversight and follow up
of costs, new decision-making routines ahead of project and
production starts, and new monitoring routines for projects
with a significant financial impact. Several key project decisions are now centralised to business unit management,
group management and in certain cases to the Board.
COSTS MUST BE REDUCED
For most of the 1990s through to 2001, JM was able to
increase its revenues substantially due to major price increases for homes, particularly in Stockholm. Our costs,
however, went up even more. To sum up, substantially
increased costs, too great an emphasis on exclusive apartments and rapid growth meant that JM’s profitability was
swiftly undermined, despite basically good conditions in the
market.
MORE STANDARDISED PRE-CONSTRUCTION
I expect that JM’s new pre-construction routines, which
were developed and implemented during 2003, will lead to
lower costs with no loss of quality. By using more standard
solutions for those parts of housing construction that do not
With a profit from project development that amounted to
SEK 182m, 2003 – like 2002 – was a weak year. This weak
result was mainly attributable to a number of major projects
in the Stockholm area. Over the next few years, project quality will steadily improve as newly started projects form a
larger proportion of project volume. Operating profit
amounted to SEK 478m, underpinned by continued successful sales of fully developed properties.
There are several bright spots, however. We beat our previous sales record in 2003 and the strong inflow of customers
meant that we could substantially increase the number of
housing starts in the fourth quarter, which had a positive
impact on both net sales and cash flow. The improved cash
flow meant that the interest-bearing net debt could be
reduced by SEK 1.4 billion in the final quarter of 2003.
The fourth quarter was also something of a turning point
for JM’s Stockholm operations. There were almost 600 housing starts, compared with a total of 380 for the first nine
months. JM Residential Stockholm showed a profit in the
final quarter of 2003 and could thus break its negative earnings trend.
Furthermore, we can see that the measures adopted relating to project oversight, control and follow-up of costs are
starting to yield results. With a volume of 2,700 production
starts in 2003, we remained at the 2002 level, with the
important difference that projects are now better planned
and the reservation rate at production start is higher.

CEO’S COMMENTS
Vaxholm outside Stockholm provide a new market segment
for project development. This has also helped to reduce
exposure to the commercial property market. Acquisition of
the Norwegian project development company Vikevåg, based
in Stavanger, has further strengthened our position in the
Norwegian market.

STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENT
These acquisitions are excellent examples of the new strategic plan adopted by JM. The strategic plan also means an
even clearer focus on housing development, a broadening of
the product range as regards both form of tenure and price
band, and a focus on growth outside Stockholm. Furthermore, the size of the building rights portfolio in the balance
sheet will be adjusted to reflect four years’ planned production.
Historically, JM has realised substantial values through the
sale of fully developed commercial properties. This type of
value creation will in future be more clearly linked to residential properties. The residential portfolio we have
acquired contains excellent development opportunities in the
form of densification through new construction and through
conversion to tenant-owned apartments. Furthermore, the
portfolio has low vacancy rates and stable cash flows.

SHAREHOLDER VALUE
JM’s share price development between the all-time-high in
2002 until the beginning of 2004 has been weak, and the target that JM’s shareholders should receive a total return that
is higher than companies with similar operations and risk
profiles has not been met.
Profitable growth is a basic prerequisite for building
shareholder value over time. JM’s profitability depends on

CEO’S COMMENTS
M O R E E F F I C I E N T P R E - C O N S T RU C T I O N
JM must be able to efficiently produce attractive homes
of high quality at the lowest possible total cost. New
procedures for pre-construction were introduced in
2003.
Each housing estate or residential property is designed and produced on the basis of requirements where position, demand in
the local market, detailed planning requirements and other factors are taken into consideration.
With its new pre-construction procedures, JM is now introducing a more industrial way of working and production methods for its housing development. Fewer components and
consistent and proven processes throughout the entire organisation and in project development phases will lead to lower
costs, shorter lead times and improved quality.
This change means that pre-construction decisions will be
made centrally, which will in turn guide the planning work carried out internally at JM and by external consultants.The preconstruction procedures have been drawn up by some 60 of
JM’s most qualified quantity surveyors, project managers and
craftsmen and are based on well-tried and cost-effective
choices of materials and working methods.
One basic prerequisite is that the new procedures do not have a
negative impact on customer relations and market offerings.
Pre-construction decisions therefore take into account parameters such as “customer values” i.e. insulation standard, window
design and exterior, as well as “non-customer values” such as
wall elements, joists, installations, roofing, etc. Based on this division, a more expensive component can be included provided it
in some way creates added value for the customer. In other
cases more expensive components or solutions are chosen to
reduce the risk of error and costly supplementary work,
increase useful economic life and reduce operating costs.
The new pre-construction procedures will increase productivity, quality and customer benefit. The new pre-construction
decisions also lay the foundation for greater savings within purchasing since purchasing volumes will be more focused towards
a lower number and more standardised components.
Examples show that the savings potential can amount to
between 10 and 20% on individual components, by consolidating volumes to a few suppliers and reducing time spend in preconstruction and production.
The new pre-construction procedures for apartment blocks
became effective in December 2003.

CEO’S COMMENTS
5
our ability to offer attractive and well-built homes at competitive prices and at the lowest possible total cost. I feel
confident that we can achieve this.
Broadening our product range means that more people
will be able to afford to buy a JM home. This does not mean,
however, that we will be renouncing quality, margins or our
long-term approach. The houses we build will stand for a
very long time.
Since we already operate in the most attractive Nordic
markets, it is natural for us primarily to seek growth through
organic expansion in existing locations. Of course this does
not rule out acquisitions, if good opportunities should arise.
TOWARDS SIMPLER REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Swedish Construction Federation is preparing a new
industry recommendation for revenue recognition of residential production conducted by the companies. The new
principle, which is planned to be adopted by JM with effect
from the 2005 financial year, is based on revenue being
recognised as the end customers sign purchasing contracts.
This will facilitate analysis of our business and make revenue
recognition more conservative.
PROSPECTS FOR 2004
JM focuses on building homes on attractive sites in areas with
good economic growth. The long-term trend with more people
moving to cities and university towns in the Nordic countries
is continuing. These housing markets, as well as surrounding
municipalities and other areas with good communications, are
showing positive development. We anticipate substantial and
lasting demand for homes developed by JM in the foreseeable
future. We have a well positioned building rights portfolio
with approximately 23,400 residential units in attractive
locations.
We will continue to give priority to our markets in Sweden,
Norway, Denmark and Belgium. Some shifting of position will
take place to reduce JM’s dependence on the Stockholm market, although without forgoing the potential we have in our
largest market. Major projects outside Stockholm include the
Dockan area in the port of Malmö, Sannegårdshamnen in
Gothenburg, and Industristaden in Uppsala. In Oslo, development is under way of the station area in Grefsen.
We expect a stable, possibly slightly weaker price trend.
Even if revenues remain unchanged, a greater degree of stan-
dardisation, increased use of joint platforms, reduced purchasing costs and a clearer focus on costs will propel JM
towards improved profitability.
We will also further strengthen our customer and market
orientation. The level of service in our business will be developed and the proportion of satisfied customers will rise.
JM already has a strong brand, satisfied customers, longterm operations and employees with a high level of competence. I feel that there is strength in the company and a strong
determination to achieve our goals.

SHARE BUY-BACK PROGRAMME
SHARE CAPITAL
JM shares are listed on the A list of the Stockholm Stock
Exchange (Stockholmsbörsen). The share capital amounts to
SEK 112.3m represented by 28.1 million shares each with a par
value of SEK 4 and equal voting rights. A trading block amounts
to 200 shares.
SHAREHOLDER TARGET
JM prioritises active management of the consolidated balance sheet. To the extent the visible equity ratio and interest
coverage are assessed as exceeding the optimal capital structure on a continuing basis, capital will be transferred to
shareholders in a form that is appropriate at the time.
In 2003, in accordance with its mandate from the 2002
Annual General Meeting, JM repurchased 1,400,000 of its
own shares at an average price of SEK 110 per share. At the
Annual General Meeting in April 2003 it was decided to
eliminate through cancellation the 2,300,000 shares repurchased by the company since the previous annual general
meeting. The share capital therefore decreased by SEK 9.2m.
JM’s shareholders should receive a higher total return, i.e. dividends and price appreciation on JM shares, than shareholders
in companies with similar operations and risk profiles.
OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE AT 31 DECEMBER 2003
SHARE PRICE TREND AND RETURN
JM shares are included in Stockholmsbörsen’s index
“SX4040 Real Estate”. In 2003, JM’s share price fell 34.6%,
compared with an increase of 24.7% for the SX4040. Dividend yield, i.e. proposed dividend in relation to share price
at year-end, was 4.7%.
TRADING AND MARKET CAPITALISATION
In 2003 JM shares were traded to a total value of SEK 2.6 billion. Average daily trading was approximately SEK 10m (14).
The turnover rate, i.e. the liquidity of the shares on Stockholmsbörsen, was 85.6% during the year compared with an
average for the entire stock exchange of 114.7%. The company’s
market capitalisation amounted to SEK 3.0 billion at year-end.

DIVIDEND POLICY

Over time, the dividend should reflect the earnings trend in
the total operating activities. The average dividend over a
business cycle should correspond to 50% of consolidated
profit after tax. Capital gains from property sales are a natural part of JM’s project development operations and therefore included in the calculation of dividends.

Strategy for high total return
BUSINESS CONCEPT
To create attractive living and working environments that satisfy individual needs both today and in the future.
The business concept means that JM is a project developer
of housing and to a selective extent of commercial premises.
JM gives priority to high quality and a holistic approach in its
design. The aim is to create living and working environments
that will remain attractive over time.
duction resources and will therefore maintain a limited
but effective construction and contracting business. However, the company’s own efficiency must always be examined in relation to costs of external production resources.
• Continued volume growth will be generated both organically and through acquisitions, with the priority of
strengthening the Group’s position in existing markets.
Growth will be achieved subject to good profitability and
a market-leading position.
PROFITABILITY TARGET
VISION
After-tax return on visible equity to amount to 10–15% over a
business cycle.
This target reflects the long lead times and cyclical nature
of JM’s business.
JM shall be a leading developer of high-quality housing projects in the Nordic region.
AMBITION FOR GROWTH
OBJECTIVE FOR SHAREHOLDER VALUE
The goal is to give shareholders a higher total return, dividends plus JM share price appreciation, than other companies
with similar operations and risk profiles.
JM aims to grow over time but housing starts will take place in
response to secured demand as well as quality assured preconstruction and production planning.
DIVIDEND TARGET
The average dividend over a business cycle should correspond
to 50% of consolidated profit after tax.
STRATEGY
In order, within the framework of the business concept, to
achieve its vision and meet its shareholder value objective, JM
has the following strategies:
• JM will develop housing in growth areas with good demographic and socio-economic conditions over time. These
are currently metropolitan areas as well as university and
college towns primarily in Sweden, Norway, Denmark and
Belgium.
• The focus must be clearly on high quality and eco-compliant homes and workplaces with a high customer value and
in attractive locations.
• JM will focus on cash flows and effective utilisation of
the balance sheet. This will be achieved by maintaining a
high rate of start-ups, implementation and sales of property
projects.
• Homes will mainly be sold for private ownership, but may
also include rentals.
• Project development of commercial properties will be limited and primarily support housing development.
• JM should internally secure a certain proportion of pro-
ASSETS AND CAPITAL STRUCTURE
JM’s ambition is to maintain over time an optimal composition of assets and capital structure, suitable for the company’s project development activities.
The building rights portfolio will be continuously optimised with regard to demand trends, planned production
and tied-up capital. The balance sheet should normally not
contain development properties exceeding four years’ production expressed in number of building rights.
The balance sheet item investment properties will entirely
comprise project assets and mainly consist of residential
properties for project development, in the form of conversion
to tenant-owner apartments or densification. JM’s aim is
that the balance sheet should not contain any fully developed
commercial properties, these should be sold as soon as possible following completion.
The cyclical nature of commercial project development
and a varying supply of residential properties for sale means
that the item investment properties can vary in size.

B U S I N E S S C O N C E P T, G O A L S A N D S T R AT E G I E S
The visible equity ratio should amount to 35% over a business cycle. To the extent the visible equity ratio and interest
coverage are assessed as exceeding the optimal capital structure on a lasting basis, capital will be transferred to shareholders in a form that is appropriate at the time.
The equity ratio target is a simplified consequence of a
more extensive analysis where shareholders’ equity has been
allocated to the balance sheet’s different asset classes and
types of operations taking assessed operating risk into
account. A falling proportion of fully developed investment
properties requires a higher equity ratio.
Since project development demands ongoing, effective capital allocation in a partly cyclical market, a dynamic approach
to financial strength and interest coverage is required. The
assessment is that the present equity ratio target provides
appropriate financial stability over a business cycle.
REQUIRED RATE OF RETURN
In order to generate the highest possible shareholder value,
JM must have good knowledge of which investments are profitable and achieve the Group’s required rate of return. Every
investment in a project must therefore generate a return that
covers its cost of capital. The investment’s cash flow is calculated and discounted on the basis of a required rate of return.
If the net present value of these cash flows is positive, the
investment creates value. Return requirements are set for
JM’s various operations where JM’s average required rate of
return can be simplified as a balance of JM’s costs for shareholders’ equity and borrowed capital as follows:
cost of capital, shareholders , equity
• Risk-free return – average return on a five-year government bond is approximately 5%.
• Risk premium – for the risk the investor takes when investing in JM shares, the risk premium is estimated at 5%.
• The required rate of return on equity (risk-free return plus
risk premium) – 10%.
cost of capital, borrowed capital
• Risk-free return – see above 5%.
• Risk premium which is paid on loan financing – 1%.
• Tax deduction – since interest expenses reduce the profit on
which tax is paid, the actual cost is lower, with corporate
tax at 28% the interest expense after tax is reduced by 28%
to 4.3%.
capital structure
• Debt/equity ratio – JM’s target is an equity ratio of 35%
over a business cycle. In the individual projects, the debt/
equity ratio is assumed, on average, to be 1.0.
The Group’s weighted cost of capital (WACC) and therefore
its basic required rate of return is 7.2%. This means that the
Group’s average investments must generate cash flow after
payment of all operating expenses and tax, but before interest expenses, of at least 7.2% of the basic investment in order
to be profitable.

Structure for governance
and reporting
This section provides a description of the structure and
procedures for the Board and Executive Management,
and shows how responsibility and authority are delegated within the organisation.
THE COMPOSITION OF THE BOARD
In 2003, JM’s Board comprised seven members, without
deputies, who were elected by the Annual General Meeting,
and two members with two deputies who were appointed by
the employee organisations.
NOMINATION
Nominations of Board members ahead of an election at an
Annual General Meeting are made through a Nomination
Committee comprising representatives for the four largest
shareholders in the company, at any time, as well as the Chairman of the Board. The composition of the Nomination Committee is announced at the end of the fourth quarter at the
latest. Composition is not affected by any changes in ownership structure between the date of presentation of the Nomination Committee and the next Annual General Meeting.
The key task of the Nomination Committee is to present
the Annual General Meeting with proposals for Board members and fees to Board members as well as, when so required,
to propose election of auditors. Ahead of the 2004 Annual
General Meeting, the Nomination Committee comprised:
Mats Tunér (SEB fonder), chairman, Marianne Nilsson
(Robur fonder), Anders Algotsson (AFA Försäkringar), Kjell
Norling (Handelsbanken fonder) as well as the Chairman of
the Board, Per Westlund. Proposed nominations to the Board
are specified in the notice of the Annual General Meeting.
THE WORK OF THE BOARD
The work of the Board concentrates on strategic issues such
as operational focus, finance and financial position, control
and efficiency, as well as decisions on production starts,
investments and sales of development land and fully developed properties above certain ceiling amounts.
Eleven Board meeting were held during the year, including
one statutory meeting.
The duties of the Chairman of the Board are estimated to
amount to approximately 60 working days per year and about
20 working days for non-executive Board members. The
Chairman of the Board makes an annual evaluation of the
work of the Board with the Board members.
REPORTING
The President is responsible for ensuring that the Board
receives reports and information that are of a quality that
allows the Board to make well-founded decisions and qualified
assessments. Economic and financial reports are presented at
each scheduled Board meeting. Quarterly and year-end
reports comprise the basic reporting and are complemented
with information from the business units obtained from JM’s
internal reporting system. The President is also charged with
reporting to each Board meeting the total purchase price for
acquired and sold properties and on decisions for investment
in properties. Before each meeting, Board members are provided with documentation of which to base their decisions.
COMPENSATION AND AUDIT COMMITTEES
A Compensation Committee and an Audit Committee were
appointed in February 2003. Each committee comprises
three members of the Board. The committees are, with a few
exceptions, preparatory bodies in relation to the Board.
Until the 2004 Annual General Meeting, the Compensation
Committee comprises Per Westlund (chairman), Per Olofsson
and Lennart Sundén, with the President as a co-opted member. The President does not participate in matters concerning
his own compensation. Four meetings were held during the
year. Work has included an external evaluation where compensation levels and principles for members of Executive Management were compared with both the building trade and the
total private labour market. The Compensation Committee
has also developed new, stricter principles for variable compensation. Details of compensation principles for senior executives can be found on page 38 (Human Resources).
Until the 2004 Annual General Meeting, the Audit Committee comprises Berthold Lindqvist (chairman), Elisabet
Annell and Björn Björnsson. The company’s two auditors and

the President are co-opted members. Eight meetings were
held in 2003. Work has focused on measures for better control and oversight, initially directed at weaknesses in the
existing organisation, as well as measures that management
wished to adopt. The committee then established a programme for control and oversight. The committee has,
through an extra assignment to the auditors, verified that
measures adopted and routines have been introduced and
applied, and that they have had the desired effect.
A specification of salary and pension terms for the President
as well as compensation to Executive Management is provided on page 75 (Notes to the Financial Statements). Where
applicable the Annual General Meeting decides on the introduction of incentive programmes for employees in the form
of stock option or convertible debenture programmes.
REMUNERATION TO THE BOARD AND MANAGEMENT
PRESIDENT’S RIGHT OF DECISION
Remuneration to Board members is decided by the Annual
General Meeting based on proposals from the Nomination
Committee. As decided by the 2003 Annual General Meeting, the Chairman of the Board receives a fee of SEK
425,000. Non-executive Board members each receive a fee of
SEK 200,000. The Annual General Meeting also decided on
fees to the Compensation and Audit Committees with a
The Board has delegated to the President the right of decision for purchases and sales of properties (to a maximum
value of SEK 100m) and investments in properties (up to SEK
400m). Other cases are decided by the Board. The Board has
also delegated to the President the right of decision for production starts for housing projects up to a total project cost,
excluding the purchase price for the property, of SEK 400m.
These amounts are chosen to meet the Board’s need to exercise control and management’s need of freedom of action.
The President has the right to further delegate some of the
above decision rights to business unit managers.
AU D I T C O M M I T T E E –
DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
• Evaluation of external auditors for recommendation to the
Board and Annual General Meeting (in consultation with the
Nomination Committee).
• Approval of fees and remuneration to auditors for special

total of SEK 200,000. These fees have been divided equally
between the six committee members.
MANAGEMENT’S WORK
Managerial responsibility includes always working to ensure
that guidelines from the Board and President are followed.
JM’s operations are divided into five business units each
with a manager who has ultimate responsibility and reports
to the President.
Executive Management (EM) comprises all heads of business units and staff heads and meets at least once a month.
Group-wide matters (quality, environment, employees, communications, etc.) are handled by EM jointly. Business matters (such as production starts, investments) are handled by
business area managers, the President, the CFO and the senior legal adviser.
The President has delegated to the business area managers
the right of decision for purchases of properties (up to SEK
10m), infrastructure investments related to projects (up to
SEK 10m) and production starts of projects (up to SEK 150m).
These decisions are taken by the business unit managers in the
business committee. For companies in the JM International
business unit, decisions are made by the board of each company, with corresponding decision-making guidelines.

C O R P O R AT E G O V E R N A N C E
CONTROL AND REPORTING STRUCTURE
Within JM a large number of projects are in production at
any given time. It is not unusual for a project to involve more
than 100 people with an estimated order value of more than
SEK 100m. Every project is run by a project manager who is
responsible for the project’s revenues and expenses. The
project manager reports to the regional manager who is
directly subordinate to the business unit manager. All these
people have profit responsibility. The business unit manager
is responsible for deciding the revenue level in the project.
Follow-up of sold and reserved units takes place on a
monthly basis, with reporting to regional manager, business
unit manager and the President. Complete reviews and reconciliation of each project’s revenues and expenses are performed every quarter. A selection of major projects is
reviewed by the auditors and presented in the Audit Committee every quarter.
During 2003 a large number of measures were adopted to
improve control and governance of JM’s operations. A number of important project decisions have been centralised,
mainly to Executive Management, but also to the Board.
Considerably stricter project oversight routines have been
introduced, particularly in the Stockholm regions. Formalised “decision gateways” now precede the important project decisions: start of pre-construction, sales start and proRöllingby 2, Åkersberga
duction start. Decisions to begin work on a project are now
always made by business unit management or Executive
Management, or by the Board for major projects.
New monitoring routines have been introduced for large
projects. Accounts are presented quarterly by the business
unit manager and regional manager to the President, Vice President and CFO. Assessment data includes the financial history
of the project, future anticipated revenues and expenses and
the current sales and reservations situation. Special control
groups have been set up for the very largest projects. The
assignments of external auditors have also been extended.
EFFICIENCY AND STRATEGY
Internal efficiency and JM’s future development and direction are also questions that have engaged the Board and Executive Management during the year. A programme to reduce
production costs has been launched. This includes both a
group-wide pre-construction process (see page 4) and development of long-term, strategic purchasing routines.
The Board has also established JM’s strategic direction for
the years ahead. This strategy, which is based on the company’s strengths within project development of homes,
includes development of the product range in order to attract
more customer segments and a focusing of the property portfolio towards residential properties for project development.

JM’S CORE BUSINESS
Valuation creation at JM
JM has many years of experience and considerable expertise in project development, and plays a leading role in customer orientation as well as quality and environmental
work.These are important prerequisites for a successful
project development company.
housing project. Before production can start customers
must have reserved a certain proportion of the planned residential units. Projects are multi-year and JM’s involvement
continues approximately two years after occupancy, when
management responsibility for the property is transferred
to the tenant-owner co-operative.

HOW LAND VALUES ARISE
Land and building rights can be said to be the options of the
property market. When the sales price for a tenant-owned
unit or the market rent for commercial premises do not provide a return on the construction investment, the building
right has a very low value. When the sales price/market rent
is high, the building right acquires a high value. Land value is
in principle the residual value between the value of the completed building and the production cost of the building.
Small fluctuations in the sales price can lead to major variations in land value. The example below, a fictitious housing
project in a Stockholm suburb, shows that an increase in the
sales price of SEK 2,000 per sq.m. (9%) means that the land
value increases by approximately SEK 1,000 per sq.m. or 33%.
SENSITIVITY CALCULATION, LAND VALUE
PROCESS FOR HOUSING PROJECTS
Sales price SEK/sq.m.
Housing development projects involve a close interplay between market and production processes. Market surveys
are conducted regularly to analyse customer preferences
with regard to type of housing, design and local services.
These surveys are an important basis for decision both
ahead of land acquisitions and before project starts.

JM’S CORE BUSINESS
The sales price for tenant-owned units alternatively market
rent for premises must exceed a certain critical level for new
construction to be viable. Below this critical level, the land
value will be low while the land value increases fast with rising sales prices/rents once the critical level has been reached.
P RO P E RT Y T E R M S
JM works with two property types 1): investment properties and development
properties. Investment properties comprise residential properties for further
development and commercial properties. Development properties mainly relate
to land that can be developed for future production.
LAND VALUES IN THE PLANNING PROCESS
Land value development is affected by general macroeconomic
factors, primarily inflation and interest rates, general development in the region and the planning process. The planning
process is highly dependent on how active the property owner
is. Project development companies such as JM can influence
future land usage and value through co-operation with the
municipality concerned.
During the planning process, the land value rises in stages
as the project takes form and elements of uncertainty are eliminated in co-operation between JM and the municipality concerned. The value creation factors to be handled are use,
scope, timetable and allocation of costs. The full land value is
attained when the detailed plan is approved and a building permit has been obtained.

cases JM creates growth in value through densification, conversion into tenant-owner co-operatives, planned demolition, or conversion and extension. In this way usage can be
changed, utilisation increased, accessibility improved and
attractiveness enhanced for customers and tenants.
METHOD FOR REVENUE RECOGNITION
Most of JM’s operations relate to housing project development
to be sold as tenant-owned or freehold units. In order to calculate the ongoing result in these projects, in common with the
rest of the industry JM applies the percentage of completion
method. This principle is based on the approach that profits in
a project should be recognised in pace with its implementation. The intention is to create a direct link between the financial reporting and the operations conducted during the
period. Revenue recognition is increased as the project pro-

Value development during the planning process can be considerable when raw land is converted into a finished building

participation. Normally it takes between one and five years
before a detailed plan can be adopted. Good long-term planning in operations and active work on both existing and
potential development properties are important.
JM also acquires developed properties that can be further
developed into attractive homes or modern offices. In such

gresses and the final result can be defined with greater certainty. The example on the previous page provides a general
description.
Development land is included in the costs on which percentage of completion is based. Recalculation effects can
arise if the project needs to be revalued as regards anticipated sales revenues or production costs.
In 2003, the Swedish Construction Federation has conducted an inquiry together with Sweden’s leading housing
producers relating to taking up as revenue, revenue recognition and balance sheet handling of housing production under
own management. A new industry recommendation is being
drawn up which is based on revenue recognition on the basis
of sold homes, in the form of contracts signed with end customers, as well as accumulated costs. The new accounting
principles, which will be introduced with effect from the
2005 accounting year also follow the international accounting principles IAS, which according to an EU directive are a
requirement with effect from 2005. See further page 59
(Accounting and valuation principles).
opment. The graph below shows the corresponding payment
flows.
When JM acquires land it is booked in the balance sheet.
When production starts the land is transferred from the balance sheet into the appropriate project phase. The land is
sold to a tenant owner co-operation formed by JM in conjunction with the start of production once a purchasing and
contractor agreement has been signed between JM and the
co-operative. JM invoices the co-operative regularly while
the project is under way in accordance with an agreed payment plan. The co-operative finances the land acquisition
and contract work through a building loan.
Any residential units that remain unsold in the co-operative following final settlement of contract work are purchased by JM at the price specified in the co-operative’s
financial plan. JM then sells the residential units at market
prices.

Efficient cash flow management is essential since JM’s projects are capital-intensive and long term. JM’s organisation is

Housing market 2003
Development in the housing market depends on a number of factors.These include not only the region’s demographic development and the age structure of the population but also demand regarding the size and location of
homes. Infrastructure investments and commuter patterns also have an impact.
GROWTH CREATES ATTRACTIVE HOUSING MARKETS
So far the highest demographic growth has clearly occurred
in the Stockholm region while there has been a substantial
movement of people away from the thinly populated rural
areas. The population growth rate in Greater Stockholm has
slowed in recent years. Demographic growth remains strong
in the Gothenburg, and Malmö/Lund regions. University
towns such as Uppsala, Linköping, Jönköping and Umeå are
other examples of places with demographic growth.

In growth areas, housing vacancies are low and prime locations almost non-existent. According to the National Board
of Housing, Building and Planning’s most recent housing
market survey, the housing shortage is now spreading further
around Greater Stockholm, Greater Gothenburg and Skåne.
60 per cent of the Swedish population lives in one of the 100
municipalities with a housing shortage. A shortage of small
and medium-sized apartments is most common but several
municipalities also report a shortage of medium-sized and
large apartments. New proposals have been made by the government designed to stimulate housing construction. These
include lower VAT on small apartments and a change to the
present subsidies system. However, this will not be sufficient
for more than a marginal increase in housing construction.
Forecasts for population development and housing construction indicate continued imbalances and an increasing shortage of housing in many of the growth regions.
JM develops housing in several regions and must follow the
local market and development. The table on the left shows
trends for the key parameters for JM’s largest markets.
PRICE TREND – SECOND-HAND MARKET
Prices for tenant-owned apartments rose in most markets
over the past year. In Sweden as a whole the price rise has
been between 8 and 10%. Among the major cities, there were
substantial price increases in Malmö and Gothenburg during the year. These increases are explained by a high number
of people moving into these areas and low mortgage rates.
Average prices for tenant-owned apartments have risen for
a number of years and this increase is expected to continue
in 2004. In Sweden, an average of 22% of disposable income
goes to housing. The corresponding figure for Greater Stockholm is 25%.
Price increases also occurred in Norway and Denmark in
2003. In Copenhagen demand for housing is very high due to
a large influx of people to the Copenhagen area in recent
years. This high demand, combined with low interest rates,
led to price increases of about 5% in 2003. In Norway,
demand for housing is high primarily in Oslo, Bergen and
Trondheim. Prices in these cities rose by an average of 4% in
2003. Both Norway and Denmark forecast weak price increases in 2004 as well, mainly due to high demand and continued low interest rates.

JM’s work with more cost-effective pre-construction, purchasing and production has led to cost reductions. This has
made it possible for JM, with increased profitability, to
reduce its prices for homes in all sizes which has led to higher
demand.

In 2003 the proportion of homes priced at up to SEK 2m
increased to approximately 80% (62) of units on which sales
had started. Only 1% cost over SEK 4m. Most buyers of JM’s
homes have their own initial funding. Approximately 80% of
buyers come from another tenant-owned apartment or house
while approximately 20% come from rental apartments.
JM’s competitors for new housing production in Sweden
mainly comprise nationwide players such as NCC, Peab and
Skanska, but also include local players.
JM’S HOUSING OUTSIDE SWEDEN
norway
Through Byggholt and its subsidiaries, JM is one of the more
prominent players in the fragmented Norwegian housing market. JM’s market share amounts to approximately 10%, with
some upward and downward variations in sub-markets. The
competitive situation also varies between sub-markets. In all
regions where JM operates the local housing co-operative is a
significant player. Other major players include nationwide
companies Block Watne, Skanska and Veidekke and, in the
Oslo area, NCC and Selvåg. A number of financial players are
also involved in housing development projects.
denmark
Following low housing production in the 1990s, construction
has gathered pace in recent years, but is still far from sufficient
to meet requirements. Almost 800 residential units were completed in the municipalities of Copenhagen and Frederiksberg in
2003. JM is a significant player with a market share of 10–15%.
The main competitors in housing development are Kuben, NCC
Ejerboliger, Nordicom and Sjælsø Group. JM was chosen as
company of the year by the Erhvervsejendom magazine.

conditional acquisition, JM meets its future land requirements
at a lower cost and the land does not need to be reported over a
long period in the balance sheet before new construction
starts. In many cases, JM is able to decide both if and when the
land should be purchased. These decisions often depend on
how planning work is progressing, i.e. the size of the building
rights and the current market situation. Development properties are located Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Belgium. The
majority are in Greater Stockholm, where JM owns and has
access to land for approximately 10,300 residential units.

shown below. This table excludes the approximately 3,700
building rights that are in the balance sheet but which JM
intends to sell.
ple. The number of inhabitants rose in 2003 for the eighth
consecutive year. Housing customers comprise both EUattached foreign citizens and local residents. Acquisition of
homes for personal use dominates but the proportion of customers who invest in order to rent out is increasing – Brussels’
total housing portfolio is dominated by apartments acquired
for renting. New housing in the Brussels region is stable with
approximately 2,000 units per year. JM’s market share is
approximately 5–10%. Major players include Jacques Delens,
Hansen, Soficom and Wilma.
HOUSING STARTS
The tempo of JM’s project development has been high for
several years and the number of housing starts has exceeded
the number sold. This circumstance changed in 2003 when
the number of signed contracts continued to rise, 3,200
(2,500), and exceeded the number of housing starts which
remained at the 2002 level, approximately 2,700 residential
units. This is a desirable development which reduces risk
exposure in a more uncertain market climate and a result of
the higher requirements for the proportion of reserved units
prior to housing starts.

JM invests continuously in land that can be developed for
future production. The building rights portfolio contains
approximately 16,000 residential units that are reported in
JM’s balance sheet. In addition, JM has access to a further some
3,700 building rights in the balance sheet. These are included in
the basis for the independent valuation of the building rights
portfolio commissioned by JM, but since they are designated to
be sold, JM does not include them in its reported available
building rights portfolio. Furthermore, building rights for
about 7,400 residential units are available through conditional
acquisition, co-operation agreements or postponed payments
where settlement has not yet been made. These building rights
are not reported in the balance sheet. By buying land through

Building permit phase
the detailed planning phase means that JM is well placed to
maintain a high level of housing starts over the next few years.
It normally takes between one and five years for a detailed
plan to be adopted. After adoption, it can take more time
before production can start. For this reason good long-term
planning is essential, and it is important to work actively with
existing development properties and to invest in new ones.
The map on the opposite page shows some of JM’s ongoing
housing projects in the Stockholm region. The projects correspond to approximately 5,300 new homes.
LOCATIONS CLOSE TO WATER AND GOOD COMMUNICATIONS
A shortage of housing which means increased prices for houses
and tenant-owned apartments, has led to people increasingly
seeking homes further out from the largest towns. Infrastructure expansion such as the Mälarbanan train service and

extension of the X2000 high-speed train have greatly reduced
journey times on many routes, making it easier to commute.
This enlargement of the regions has mainly started in the
Mälar Valley but is also taking place in the Öresund and
Gothenburg area and means that new markets have become
attractive. JM’s building rights portfolio attempts to meet customers’ increased demand for good communications. Locations close to water are also in high demand when choosing a
new home. The diagram below shows the commuting times to
the city centre (travelling time in minutes) from JM’s planned
housing developments in Greater Stockholm and the Mälar
Valley as well as the proportion of homes close to water.
From approximately 80% of JM’s building rights commuting time to the centre of Stockholm by public transport takes
less than 30 minutes. Just over half of JM’s planned residential units are in locations close to water.

At year-end 2003, NewSec Analys performed a valuation of all
JM’s residential development properties. The appraisals are
made based on an assumed sales price for the properties at
actual cash values, whereby future development gains are not
taken into account.The valuations were based on the location,
attractiveness, scope and type of building planned, the stage in
the planning process and the time remaining until production
starts.
The assessed market value of JM’s residential development
properties amounts to SEK 4,785m (5,132).The corresponding
book value is SEK 3,439m (3,779).The approximately 7,400 residential units available through conditional acquisitions were not
included in the appraisal.

respective housing market. Class C indicates a housing location
slightly further from communications and commercial services,
while D locations are in peripheral areas in the housing market.
The phases of the planning process have also been classified by
NewSec into four planning phases: raw land, general plan,
detailed plan and building permit. The diagrams below show a
breakdown of the value of JM’s development properties into different locations and planning phases. The detailed planning
phase covers the period from the start of detailed planning
work until application for a building permit.

essential conversion and extension into account. The market
value of these buildings amounts to SEK 116m (287) and is
included in the above summary.

“open house” was held for the residents in Älta together with
Älta’s local authority where JM presented visions for the
design of the Älta shopping centre. The intention was to
encourage participation in this development work. In December the residents were invited to express their views on the
proposals and opinions in general. All information and JM’s
four proposals can be accessed on the municipal website.
In Vaxholm, JM has also started work on developing and
densifying the portfolio. Initially, the municipality was contacted to discuss and outline opportunities to create additional building rights. In both Nacka and Vaxholm many tenants have shown an interest in conversion to tenant owner-

In spring 2003 JM carried out a major property deal with
Tornet. JM sold commercial properties in Mörby Centrum
totalling approximately 56,000 sq.m. and at the same time
purchased approximately 1,000 apartments in Älta, Nacka.
By exercising a call option issued by Tornet in conjunction
with this deal, JM also acquired about 1,100 apartments in
Vaxholm during the summer.
The deal meant that JM sold fully developed properties and
at the same time acquired large housing areas with both valueadded and development potential. JM has thus acquired an
opportunity to improve and densify attractive areas while the
two attractive housing portfolios with their low vacancies generate reliable cash flows. JM’s aim is to increase attractiveness,
develop new building rights, improve services, increase accessibility and create secure environments.
In autumn 2003 JM started work on developing new build-

In growth regions the housing shortage is expected to continue
and in many cases increase. A weak market should therefore
not have any negative impact on well situated residential properties. Rental levels in properties with rented apartments are
controlled by a utility value system, a principle that means
that rental development is linked to the cost development in
the municipal housing company in the location concerned.
Opportunities for large increases in value in the short term are
small, as is the risk of a major fall in value. When investing in
rental apartments there is only a risk in places with no growth
and which also suffer from company closures or relocations,
which can lead to increased vacancies.

ship, which JM favours and sees as a natural part of the
development of the residential portfolios.
MARKET FOR COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES
Commercial project development conducted by JM is concentrated to Stockholm and, to a limited extent, Brussels.
The market is cyclical and strongly dependent on national
and regional growth.
In 2003 vacancies continued to rise throughout the Stockholm area due to higher unemployment and continued space
efficiency. Tenants are demanding modern, space-efficient
offices and the differences between old-fashioned and modern
premises became increasingly clear in 2003, with regard to
both rental levels and vacancy rates. Today it is difficult to
lease out old-fashioned premises regardless of location. These
premises need to undergo major conversion or be leased out at
considerably lower rents in order to be competitive. Often
companies choose to move to modern premises with high space
efficiency where the cost per employee is reduced even though
the rent in SEK/sq.m. is higher than for unmodernised office
premises. All sub-markets in Greater Stockholm noted rent
reductions in 2003. At most, market rent fell between 10 and
15% for unmodernised premises in the city or inner suburbs.
At year-end 2002 the vacancy rate for offices in Stockholm
city centre was approximately 8% (7) and conversion vacancies were approximately 5% (4). Vacancies in Greater Stockholm continued to rise during the year and at year-end 2003

the vacancy rate was approximately 15%. There are considerable variations, however, with Kista being hit hardest while
parts of the inner city fared better. A number of large office
projects were completed in 2003 in Kista, Solna, the city centre and Södermalm, with total space of about 200,000 sq.m.
Current forecasts indicate stronger GDP growth in 2004
but the upward turnaround in the Swedish economy is predicted to be delayed until the second half of 2004. Vacancies
are expected to continue to rise slightly at the beginning of
2004 and a general turnaround in rental development can
take place in spring 2005 at the earliest.
2003 saw continued major interest from foreign property
investors, primarily for commercial properties. As in 2002, German pension funds and American venture capital funds were
the most active. The main characteristics of the sold properties
are attractive locations in the city centre or inner suburbs, modern or totally converted and with tenants with long leases.
Demand for functional offices in the EU district and in the
administrative centre of Brussels remains high. New additions are limited and new leases are mainly for totally renovated or newly built office premises. In total leasing in 2003
exceeded the previous year’s level and EU enlargement will
have a noticeable impact. In attractive districts the vacancy
rate is about 4% and rents have reached new all-time highs.
JM’S INVESTMENT PROPERTIES
JM’s portfolio of investment properties is divided into fully
developed properties, properties under construction and
properties for further development. The last-named consist
of existing properties where JM plans densification, change
of form of tenure, planned demolition, conversion or extension to change usage, raise utilisation, improve accessibility
or in some other way enhance the value of the property.
Investment properties for further development and under
construction show fluctuating rental revenues and operating
nets depending on the different phases of the project. In
order to provide an accurate picture of the entire property
portfolio, these properties are separated from fully developed properties.

business cycle can last up to ten years. It is therefore important for a property developer to both acquire properties for
development and sell fully developed properties at the right
time. In 2003, JM sold properties for a total of SEK 2,219m.
These sales provided a total capital gain of SEK 411m.
The largest deal was when JM sold the Svärdet properties
in Mörby and acquired approximately 2,100 residential units
in Nacka and Vaxholm at the same time.
Other major property deals included the sale of the newly
developed hotel property on Vasagatan, Pennfäktaren 10,

major office projects, Barnängen and Skogskarlen, and a
small office project in Lidingö are in the final phase. Leasing
is under way and currently 64% of the space is leased.
In Brussels, an office property is under development in a
central location in the Leopold district. The property has
not been leased out.
PROPERTIES FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT – PLANNED PROJECTS
Development work is under way for several properties in JM’s
portfolio. This work includes matters related to planning,
design, and assessments of the economic climate and market.
Today, most of the properties for further development comprise the residential portfolios in Älta and Vaxholm.
In addition to properties for further development, JM also
has available commercial building rights amounting to
approximately 200,000 sq.m.
FULLY DEVELOPED PROPERTIES – FOR SALE
The portfolio of fully developed properties decreased in 2003
from SEK 2,109m to SEK 515m as a result of sales. The
remaining portfolio is concentrated to Stockholm’s inner city
and northern suburbs and Uppsala, and mainly comprises
commercial properties. JM’s portfolio of fully developed
properties outside Sweden consists of properties in Belgium
and Norway.
Most of the leases in JM’s portfolio of fully developed properties run for 3–5 years. 47% of rental revenues are from leases
which run until the end of 2007 or longer. Vacancies in JM’s
portfolio of fully developed commercial properties and residential properties for further development amount to 4% (10)
of annual rents and 4% (10) of space. The occupancy rate for
the Swedish office projects under construction amounts to
approximately 65% of annual rents and 64% of space.

NewSec made an assessment of the market value of all JM’s
investment properties at year-end 2003. The valuations were
performed as regular cash flow analyses where the market value
is calculated as the sum of the present value of annual net payment flows during the calculation period and the present value
of the market value (residual value) in the event of a sale at the
end of the calculation period. The valuations were performed
for each individual property based on present lease circumstances and an assessment of market rents, operating and maintenance costs and the special circumstances of each asset.Based
on the market situation in the sub-market concerned,long-term
vacancy and direct yield requirements were assessed.All valuations were performed in accordance with the Swedish Property
Index (SFI) rules.
The basis for the valuations are surveys conducted in
2002–2003 and individual assessment of each property’s prerequisites.
In assessments of the market value of properties which are
under construction or are intended for further development, the
market value was based on market revenues and costs in a completed state,minus the assessed remaining construction costs and
with deductions for uncertainty,risk and reasonable project gains.

region, is expected to provide a continued stable price trend
for housing, even taking temporary economic uncertainty into
account. After falling for a number of years, housing expenditure’s share of households’ disposable income rose in 2003, see
diagram below. This increase was caused by both lower disposable income and higher housing expenditure.
Risk management – an
integrated part of JM’s core
business
Value creation within JM is clearly linked to the company’s ability to manage the risks in its operations. Controlled risk-taking contributes to increased profitability.
MACROECONOMIC RISKS
economic trend
The general business climate affects both demand for new
housing and price levels. JM’s project development is concentrated to areas that are assessed as having the best opportunities for long-term economic growth. Systematic efforts are
made to monitor economic development and its effects on
the business.
consumer spending power
JM’s housing is in a segment where a large group of households
have sufficient regular income to finance their purchases. The
consumer spending power trend, combined with a continued
influx of people to metropolitan areas throughout the Nordic

general interest rate situation
The general interest rate situation is both a risk and an
opportunity for JM since it affects, among other things:
• Interest expenses for the Group’s net borrowing (see page
34).
• The required rate of return at property valuations (see
page 29).
• The sales price of both housing and commercial properties.
• Demand, particularly for housing.
The greatest threat which could lead to a decline in price and
demand is an interest rate hike.
MARKET RISKS
housing
Demand for new housing is mainly affected by demographic
growth and economic development in the area, consumer
spending power, prices and price development in the socalled second-hand market. The final price that JM receives
depends on local demand, the location and attractiveness of
the residential units and the current interest rate situation.
JM gives priority to attractive locations, preferably close to
water, in places with good opportunities for growth.
JM works closely with prospective home buyers in order
to ensure that planned projects meet demand and to secure
a high level of advance reservations.

commercial premises
JM’s project development of commercial premises is primarily focused on projects that support housing development
projects. It is important to create stable revenue flows in the
property. A well-composed tenant structure, combined with
the right location and high quality in the property, are of
major importance when it comes to a sale.
project development portfolio
JM has building rights available for future production corresponding to 23,400 residential units, of which approximately
j m d e l åj rms raanp np uo ar tl rj ae pn ou ra tr i 2– 0m0a3r s 2 0 0 2
31
O P P O RT U N I T I E S A N D R I S K S
16,000 are booked as an asset in the balance sheet, and 7,400
properties available through conditional acquisition outside
the balance sheet. The residential building rights portfolio
had a book value of SEK 3.4 billion at year-end 2003.
In addition, JM has a further some 3,700 building rights at
its disposal in the balance sheet. These are included in the
basis for the independent valuation of the building rights
portfolio commissioned by JM, but are designated to be sold
and JM therefore does not include them in its reported available building rights portfolio.
The future net capital outlay for acquisition of the 7,400
building rights available through conditional acquisition, cooperation agreements or postponed payments is assessed to
amount to approximately SEK 1,500m. It is possible to continue to partition and sell development land from acquired
land without affecting the number of building rights.
The portfolio of properties for future project development
should correspond to approximately four years’ planned production. Its size and composition provides great potential
and a theoretical risk. Lead times are long from project conception to final sale and major projects can represent order
values of several billion Swedish kronor. Projects are started,
however, in phases. JM does not start a project until a certain
proportion of the residential units has been reserved.
guarantee commitments for tenant-owner co-operatives
JM primarily develops homes that are sold to tenant-owner
co-operatives formed by JM (JM also handles sales to end customers). In pace with project completion, the tenant-owner
co-operative is invoiced for accumulated costs in the project.
In order to finance production, the tenant-owner co-operative raises a building loan. JM issues a guarantee for the
part of the building loan that exceeds the co-operative’s
future long-term loans. The long-term loans are secured by
mortgage deeds taken out by the co-operative itself.
JM’s guarantee commitments cease when the building
loan is redeemed when tenants move in. The theoretical risk
of JM becoming liable to pay in accordance with its guarantee commitment is reduced by the reservations requirement
prior to production starts.
competitive scenario
JM’s competitors in project development are both major
national players and smaller local project development com-
panies. JM tries to distinguish itself through a large number
of factors that interact efficiently within the company. These
include the overall corporate culture, agility, expertise in
acquisitions, decision-making, project implementation, quality profile and sales.
OPERATING RISKS
cost control and internal oversight
Effective cost control in project development is very important. A number of measures were adopted in 2003 to
improve internal oversight and control. These are described
more fully on page 46.
The main volume in JM’s operations is attributable to
housing development projects in Sweden. Related costs for
2003 amounted to approximately SEK 4,800m.
Direct salaries/wages, direct materials and costs for subcontractors account for 15%, 19% and 37% respectively of
JM’s project costs.
In order to ensure quality requirements and production
competence and contribute to effective cost control, JM
maintains some construction contractor resources. These
resources are limited, however, which makes JM dependent
on cost development at subcontractors.
In general resources are contracted well ahead of time,
which means that JM normally has a controlled cost situation. The number of projects, their volume, development
phase and utilisation of subcontractors vary from year to
year. This and many other factors affect the total cost base
and the breakdown between cost groups.

Land pertains to the acquisition cost for land. Developer’s costs are costs not directly
related to contracting, such as interest on loans, municipal connection charges and registration of title. Pre-construction mainly relates to costs for technical consultants.
Overheads refer to incidental expenses for setting up the building site and rents for
leased fixed assets such as plant and equipment.

revenue recognition method
JM’s current result is obtained using the percentage of completion method in ongoing projects (see page 17). JM applies a conservative percentage of completion method, but this still makes
high demands on well-considered assessments from those
responsible for revenues and costs within the organisation.
Conservative revenue recognition has increased in the early
phases following the negative project revaluations that were
required in the 2002 annual accounts due to project deficiencies in Stockholm. A more strict model for revenue recognition
will be introduced with effect from 2005 (see page 18).
POLITICAL RISKS
What and how much can be built, and when housing starts can
take place, very much depend on planning work. JM is dependent on good co-operation with the municipality concerned
and on planning work not being delayed due to political decisions. Political decisions related to infrastructure development, and the introduction of new laws and regulations, can
have a positive or negative impact on operations. JM’s experience of project development and long-term relationships with
municipal authorities mean that JM can reduce the political
risks. Acquisition of building rights subject to an approved
detailed plan are another factor.
RISK ASSESSMENT
JM continuously evaluates the proportion of unreserved and
unsold residential units in relation to ongoing production.
The proportion of unreserved or unsold units should not be
too high, but nor should it be too low since value creation at
JM is linked to a high and controlled rate of project start-ups.
In 2003, the proportion of unreserved and unsold residential
units decreased, so the risk in JM was reduced.
JM aims to have all residential units sold by final inspection. Units that remain unsold after completion and final
inspection are potentially a major risk in terms of value,
since JM undertakes to purchase unsold homes from the tenant-owner co-operatives it has formed.
S E N S I T I V I T Y A N A LYS I S – BU I L D I N G R I G H T S P O RT F O L I O
One way to reflect the dynamics in the building rights portfolio
is to perform a sensitivity analysis where all anticipated cash
flows from the portfolio are calculated at present value. Below
are a number of simplified assumptions designed to reveal the
present value of JM’s building rights portfolio, at a number of
assumed sales prices.
23,400 residential building rights are evenly distributed over a
8-year production period.The initial investment is excluded since
the calculation is intended to show the value of the portfolio.
However,investments not yet made of approximately SEK 1,500m
for conditional acquisitions or deferred payments are included in
the analysis as a future constant outgoing cash flow during the
period.
JM’s standard residential unit is assumed to be 88 sq.m., the
assumed tax rate is 28% and the discount rate is 7.2%.The calculation does not take possible inflation into account and is not a
forecast.
The table shows the assumed revenue and project expenses
per sq.m. of apartment space excluding VAT. If a specific revenue/project expense per sq.m. is assumed to apply to the entire
building rights portfolio and outgoing cash flow for conditional
acquisitions is taken into account, a value is created, expressed as
present value.The analysis shows a strong leverage effect in value
creation depending on the company’s ability to manage both revenues and expenses effectively, and not least the general trend for
house prices during the period. A price or cost change of SEK
1,000 per sq.m. corresponds to about SEK 1,100m or almost SEK
40 per share according to the basis for this calculation.

FINANCIAL ITEMS
Strong financial base
JM’s finance unit is responsible for the Group’s short- and
long-term financing,liquidity planning,cash management
and financial risk management.The division of responsibility, organisation and control of the Group’s overall
financing activities are regulated by a finance policy
established by the Board of Directors.
FINANCE POLICY
The finance policy specifies the objectives for finance operations, overall responsibility and specific rules and limits. The
objectives for the finance operations are to:
• Support operating activities in residential and commercial
project development.
• Optimise use of capital and cash flow management.
• Control and manage the financial risks to which JM is
exposed.
between JM AB and subsidiaries, and to external suppliers,
have so far been so limited that currency hedging has not been
required. JM AB has hedged NOK 85m of the net investment in
Byggholt AS through matching borrowing in Norwegian kroner.
Derivative instruments may only be used in order to minimise risks.
JM is working to adapt its financial risk management
ahead of introduction of IAS 39 – Financial Instruments.
FINANCE STRATEGY
JM’s basic finance strategy is to clearly link cash flows from
projects in progress and investment properties to the company’s management of borrowing and interest rate risks. This
strategy provides the best control of financial risks.
In order to maintain flexible administration and costeffective debt management, existing loan agreements are
guaranteed by JM’s excellent creditworthiness, which means
that no mortgage deeds are provided.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group’s financial risks primarily consist of interest rate
risk, financing risk, liquidity risk and, to a limited extent,
currency risk. The choice of maturities and fixed interest
spread is governed by several factors, such as capital tied up
in ongoing projects, business risk, anticipated dates for sale of
properties, the terms of leases in investment properties and
the Group’s financial position in general. These factors are
summarised in the Board’s established guidelines for fixed
interest spread and maturity structure with scope for deviations within certain limits based on the current market situation. There are also rules for handling interest rate risk in
building loans during the construction period and recommendations for final financing of tenant-owner co-operatives.
Cash is kept at a low level and any surplus liquidity may
only be invested in banks defined by JM and in Swedish
fixed-income securities without currency risk. Payment preparedness is maintained through overdraft facilities and
committed credit lines.
Currency risk on transactions is eliminated as far as possible.
Currency hedging against balance sheet exposure is carried out
on a selective basis. Transaction volumes in foreign currency

The debt/equity ratio at year-end was 0.8 times (1.0) and
the interest coverage ratio was 2.1 times (2.1). The loan-tovalue ratio in the property portfolio, i.e. interest-bearing liabilities in relation to the estimated market values of investment properties plus the book values of development
properties, amounted to 37% (53).
JM strives for efficient use of capital with a higher asset
turnover. Efficiency is achieved with increased net sales combined with reduced total assets due to the sale of properties.

interest on the debt during the year was 5.4% (5.9). The average interest rate on the interest-bearing loans, excluding PRI,
was 5.5% (5.9) at year-end. Most of the loans redeemed during the year had short fixed interest terms and therefore carried low interest. At the same time, the average fixed interest
term has increased from 2.3 to 2.5 years. In 2004, SEK
2,319m (90%) of JM’s loan stock will be restructured. A 1
percentage point change in interest rates corresponds to
changed interest expenses of approximately SEK 5m, including the effect from risk-minimising derivative contracts, on
the portion of the loan stock restructured in 2004.
In 2003 JM sold properties for approximately SEK 2,200m.
The sales proceeds were used for redemption of loans in conjunction with the sales. At the same time, new loans were
raised to finance acquisitions of development properties in
Sweden and in foreign subsidiaries. The net change in inter-

financial items.
The long-term rate (5-year interest rate swap) fell heavily in
the spring and early summer 2003 and then climbed upwards
again to end at roughly the same level as at the beginning of the

the year and had then fallen to approximately 2.9% by year-end
without any significant upswings during the year.

Caring for the environment
The building sector is responsible for a significant part
of society’s energy and materials utilisation, and therefore has a major environmental impact. The sector is
also of major importance for a well-functioning society
since it contributes to key infrastructure such as
homes, offices and roads. JM’s aim is to meet these
requirements without jeopardising the ability of future
generations to meet theirs: a long-term sustainable
development.
35
CONTROL OF THE ENTIRE CHAIN
Acting simultaneously as developer, planner, contractor and
manager, gives JM control over the entire construction
process. This creates good opportunities to minimise the
environmental impact of the buildings throughout their
entire life cycle, from land acquisition to finished building
and on to management and demolition.
Opportunities are greatest during planning and pre-construction. During this phase the environmental impact a
building or structure will have during its total life cycle is
determined. Decisions made during this period have repercussions for a very long time. This applies in particular to

SUSTAINABLE AND PROFITABLE EFFORTS
Back in 1994, JM was the first construction company in
Europe to sign an environmental policy. The company has
subsequently integrated its environmental work into its
business process, with the aim of creating a more long-term
approach and credibility. This has provided competitive
advantages and led to several respected environmental
funds, including Banco’s Swedish environmental fund and
Robur environmental fund, investing in the company for
many years. During the year, JM also earned a high rating in
Folksam’s annual environmental survey, the Climate Index.
JM has long been involved in the building sector’s concerted efforts to be more sustainable from an ecological perspective. This work has mainly been carried out via the Ecocycle Council for the Building Sector, where an ambitious
environmental programme was adopted during the year
designed to involve the entire sector. One sector-wide project that deserves special mention is the Building Industry’s
Phasing Out of Especially Hazardous Substances, called
BASTA in Sweden, which is supported by the EU. The intention is, within a few years, to build up a qualification system
for phasing out especially hazardous substances within the
building sector. JM is one of six partners involved in the
development of BASTA.
In September, JM also pledged support for the commitments
of the “Bygga Bo” dialogue. This involves a number of companies,
municipalities and the government in a joint undertaking to
carry out certain measures within the areas of effective use of
energy, effective use of resources and a healthy indoor climate.
JM shall promote long-term quality and environmental management in all its operations.The company shall focus on customer needs and strive for sustainable development of society.
To accomplish this, we shall:
• Preserve and contribute environmental and aesthetic values to the urban and natural landscapes.
• Produce buildings with a healthy living and working environment.
• Work in a structured and systematic manner that leads to
continual improvements in environmental and quality performance.
• Prevent the production and dispersal of pollutants and promote resource conservation and closed cycles.
• Actively contribute to development of knowledge and raise
employee awareness of quality and environmental issues.
• Apply environmental standards that are more rigorous than
existing legal requirements.

two of JM’s significant environmental aspects: energy consumption when the buildings are in use, and the use of certain building materials. Other significant environmental
aspects are handling of building waste, use of transport and
machinery, and handling contaminated land.
EFFECTIVE CONTROL
The Group has a quality and environmental policy as well as
quality and environmental objectives, while each operation
within the Group has drawn up a quality and environmental
programme with quantifiable and timetabled quality and environmental targets. In addition to objectives and programmes
at an overall level, project programmes and environmental consequence analyses are conducted at project level. Follow-up
includes checks, environmental rounds, inspections, exception reports and key performance indicators (KPIs).
With the aid of process-oriented operational control systems, the operations receive control and support in their
daily quality and environmental work. Internal audits are
used to check how the requirements of the operational control system are met in the project.
Since JM has a major indirect environmental impact via its
external partners – consultants, subcontractors and suppliers – demands are also made on them to have the required
environmental routines. JM’s principal suppliers are subject
to special environmental assessments.
MINOR
MODERATE
MAJOR
Each of JM’s operations has a quality and environment council that formulates targets. Practical work is co-ordinated by
a quality and environmental manager, who is also responsible
for the operational control system together with the different process owners. Each geographic region has a quality and
environment co-ordinator who functions as an internal auditor and support. The Group’s Quality and Environment
department is responsible for overall co-ordination.
A extensive review of both the operational control system
and audit methods was conducted during the year in order
to ensure good control towards long-term profitability,
lower business risks and uniform company processes.
In addition, extensive work has been started to change the
company’s pre-construction and purchasing routines. The
intention is to use fewer and well-tried solutions and thus
increase control over choice of materials and methods. As
part of ongoing efforts to “industrialise” operations – without forgoing customer requirements – a more consistent and
effective control of energy measures and other environmental activities is being sought.
Ongoing training and active development work are conducted both internally and in co-operation with other players in
order to raise competence and involvement among employees.
The requirements in the quality and environmental management standards ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 are essentially
met as a result of the way JM works.

drawing board. Mandatory procedures include use of lowenergy lamps, low-energy white goods, low-flush toilets,
water-saving taps, and low-energy fans. Other measures vary
depending on the project and may include extra well-insulated windows, bespoke ventilation, individual measurement
of hot water consumption or systems for renewable energy
such as solar panels, solar cells and ground heat.
Eco-labelled electricity is mandatory on all building sites.
GOOD CHOICE OF MATERIALS
ECO-COMPLIANT HOMES
The residential buildings built by JM meet a number of specified requirements for methods and technical solutions.
These requirements are intended to reduce the environmental impact of the buildings and to create conditions for a
healthy indoor climate.
A healthy indoor climate is characterised by qualities such
as ease of cleaning, building materials, acoustics and air quality. Dust-collecting surfaces are minimised and noise is kept
out using sound-proofed apartment doors without letterboxes. The entire property has three-phase, five-wire wiring
and fuse boxes located away from bedrooms and living room
in order to minimise exposure to electromagnetic fields.
In order to steer use of building materials towards lower
environmental impact, JM has had a unique internal system
for eco-evaluation for a number of years. Only materials that
are approved may be used. Products that are evaluated
include paints, glues, jointing compounds, and floor and roof
materials. The results are stored in JM’s environmental product database.
Building materials are assessed from a life cycle perspective. This includes examining their content of hazardous
substances that might affect the working, living and outdoor
environments. Use of thermoplastics and products that have
a high organic solvent content is avoided, as are lead/lead
alloys, short-chained phthalates, chlorinated paraffin, bromide flame retardants and other substances hazardous to
health and the environment.

HUMAN RESOURCES
High priority for
employee development
JM’s focus on project development places high demands
on employee competence.Significant efforts are made to
increase employees’ knowledge, develop good leaders
and support professional and personal development.
Investments in employee competence primarily have a
business-support purpose.
PERSONNEL STRUCTURE
At year-end 2003, JM had 2,368 employees, comprising 1,090
salaried employees and 1,278 wage-earners. A total of 296
people, 97 salaried employees and 199 wage-earners, left the
company following the issue of redundancy notices. Some 120
employees chose to leave the company during the year. The
average age of employees has decreased in recent years, to 44
for salaried employees and 40 for wage-earners. The proportion of graduates among salaried employees was 25% (26).
EMPLOYEE DEVELOPMENT
In its personnel policy JM has defined competence as knowledge, willingness and ability. These parameters form the
basis of the performance reviews between manager and
employee, and are the foundations on which employee development is conducted. In general JM works with a philosophy
that practical work is the main source of individual development. Courses organised by the company are also a key part
of competence development.
JM has a number of programmes designed to motivate employees, increase equal opportunities and strengthen its image
as the industry’s best employer. For example, JM encourages
employees to take out parental leave. Compensation for loss of
income during parental leave is offered for up to six months,
with up to 80% of salary regardless of income. During 2003, 63
employees used this opportunity, 30 of whom were men.
Surveys indicate without exception considerable job
enjoyment among employees. An open organisation where
individual employees are seen and given responsibility and
authority at an early state, as well as investments in competence development are frequent assessments.
MANAGEMENT SUPPLY
JM mainly uses internal recruitment to meet requirements
for managers and leaders. Internal recruitment provides
good opportunities for individual development within the
company while the corporate culture is strengthened and
knowledge of “the business” is retained. External influences
are important, however, and it is up to managers and leaders
at JM to ensure that these are brought into the organisation
also in other ways than through recruitment.
All JM’s managers are also tasked with identifying future
managers. Management development has a clear hands-on profile. People identified as future managers and leaders are gradually given more and more responsibility and complementary
education is provided if required. A three-year trainee programme is one way of ensuring future leadership supply.
COMPENSATION POLICY
Approximately 270 of JM’s managers and leaders are included
in a profit-based salary system. Total salary comprises a fixed
and variable component, with a maximum result for the variable component which, depending on position, varies between two and seven monthly salaries. Apart from being
based on financial results, which has the greatest importance,
the variable salary component is also based on the results of
customer surveys and individual target attainment.
ETHICAL GUIDELINES
JM drew up group-wide ethical guidelines in 2002 which
were implemented in 2003. These guidelines have been
developed to support individual employees in their professional role, both as regards decisions relating to their work
and codes of conduct for relationships with other employees,
suppliers and customers. JM’s ethics committee provides
ongoing support to the organisation and is responsible for
continuous development of these guidelines.
EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES
For several years JM has been making active efforts to
achieve a more even gender distribution. The proportion of
women among salaried employees has increased steadily and
amounted to 36% at the end of 2003, an increase of 1 per-

centage point compared with 2002. Almost half of the people
who have attended JM’s trainee programme and 15% of the
Group’s senior executives are women.
for measures designed to allow the employee to return to
work as soon as possible. Treatment is provided by therapists, psychologists, physiotherapists, naprapaths and when
required vocational guidance.
WELLNESS PROGRAMMES
JM works actively with preventive health care in order to
avoid absence due to illness and industrial injuries. Internally, absence due to illness among salaried employees and
wage-earners is reported separately. In 2003 long-term
absence due to illness among salaried employees was 1.7%,
and 4.6% among wage-earners.
In addition to regular company health care all employees
are offered a number of wellness programmes such as exercise,
treatment from a naprapath, physiotherapy, massage, and
information about the correlation between diet and health.
Stress-related illness has become an increasingly common
reason for salaried employees being on the long-term sick list
(45%) in recent years. In order to reduce stress-related absence
due to illness, JM works to prevent this based on an individual
perspective and on a manager/leader perspective. All employees have an opportunity to attend stress management training
and JM’s managers are trained to identify symptoms of stress
among their employees at an early stage.
Among wage-earners injuries from falls and strain-related
injuries are the main reasons for long periods on the sick-list
(75%). JM tries to reduce such injuries through continuous
and consistent efforts in the working environment on the
sites and through job rotation. One wellness concept which
has gradually been introduced is daily warming up exercises
and stretching during working hours, body-building and fitness training outside working hours, and access to treatment
from a naprapath at the workplace. “Building gymnastics”
take place on most of JM’s building sites.
Studies of JM’s wage-earners compared with workers at
sites outside the wellness programme have shown both a
reduction in industrial injuries and that JM’s employees are
in far better physical shape. JM’s ultimate aim is to reduce
both strain-related injuries and accidents to zero.
REHABILITATION
JM’s rehabilitation work is based on co-operation between
the central personnel function, the manager responsible, the
person on the sick-list and the care providers. JM works
actively during the illness process by initiating and paying

THE BRAND
Increased marketing efforts
The purpose of JM’s brand-building activities and longterm profiling campaigns is to maintain and enhance
interest in JM’s housing and commercial premises, and
thus make a positive contribution to sales.
POSITIONING
As the market’s leading player, it is in JM’s interest to promote higher demand in general for newly built homes. The
second-hand market, homes that are not newly built, is the
main competitor. JM therefore seeks to highlight the advantages of buying a new home, such as opportunities to have a
say in choice of materials, fittings and layout. The slogan
“Room for enjoyment” summarises the values that JM represents and symbolises the optimal benefit JM wishes to offer
its customers.
BRAND INVESTMENTS
JM has increased its brand investments in recent years in
order to support planned volume growth and adopt a clear
position in the light of greater competition in housing development projects. Brand investments were increased considerably in 2003.
Co-ordinating brand campaigns with ongoing sales activities provides more value per invested advertising krona.
Poster campaigns, film and TV commercials and radio spots
complement project catalogue mail shots and newspaper
advertisements.
On four occasions in 2003 these integrated campaigns
were conducted before and in direct connection with JM’s
regular customer activity the Grand Viewing Day. Apart
from a substantial increase in the number of visitors on
viewing days and hits on JM’s website, significant sales
results could be noted.
MARKET WINDOW WWW.JM.SE
The Internet is an increasingly important search engine for
prospective home buyers and a natural first direct contact
with JM. Further development of JM’s website, with a focus
on user friendliness and consistent property presentations,
has been carried out.
SPONSORING AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
For JM it is important that sponsoring activities are brandbuilding and have a link to JM’s own operations. JM also has a
responsibility to contribute to positive social development.
JM has made the assessment that sport, culture and social
responsibility are appropriate areas for sponsoring. By sponsoring Mentor, a foundation dedicated to giving young people
a drug-free upbringing, JM is involved in the Hjulsta school
in north Stockholm. JM is also principal sponsor of the
Millesgården museum on Lidingö. Sponsoring costs totalled
SEK 2.6m in 2003.
AWARDS
High ratings or mentions in industry competitions are important for JM’s image to the outside world. In 2003 two of JM’s
senior living projects received awards. The Swedish Association of Architects’ Housing award was given to the Opus 1
project in Ljunghusen. The Hammarskogen project in Järfälla, north of Stockholm, received an award in 2003 for good
building culture from Järfälla town planning office.
STRENGTH IN THE BRAND
Knowledge of and attitudes to JM are good. Surveys show
that JM is the supplier of choice in its target group – more
people name JM than any other company when asked who
they would turn to in order to buy a newly built home.

Net sales decreased in 2003 by 5% to SEK 2,092m (2,205).
Earnings excluding property sales and write-downs
decreased to SEK 105m (178). This lower result was partly
attributable to slower sales of large residential units in
Gothenburg. The capital loss from property sales amounted

Net sales decreased according to plan and amounted to SEK
701m (1,166). Operating profit amounted to SEK 34m (–27).
The business unit’s lower external volumes are attributable to a lower proportion of external contracting work. Phasing out of unprofitable units and the sale of non-strategic
operations contributed to an improved margin.
The business unit carries out construction work for external
and internal customers in the Greater Stockholm area.

PROPERTY TRANSACTIONS
During the year the business unit completed property sales
for a total of SEK 2,219m, with a capital gain of SEK 411m.
These included the sale of the hotel property Pennfäktaren
10 for SEK 575m and the major deal with Tornet. In this
deal, JM sold all the Svärdet properties, the offices in
Mörby, Danderyd, for SEK 931m with a capital gain of SEK
235m. At the same time, 2,100 residential units were
acquired in Nacka and Vaxholm for SEK 1,422m.
PROJECT DEVELOPMENT
Work has started on detailed plans for densification of the
residential areas acquired by JM in Nacka and Vaxholm.
There is also considerable interest in conversion of existing
rental units into tenant-owned apartments in these areas. At
year-end discussions were under way with four tenantowner co-operatives in Nacka and Vaxholm, comprising
approximately 250 apartments.
In the Barnängen block in Södermalm a 9,000 sq.m. industrial property is being converted into modern offices where
tenants already moved in include the architect firms Nyréns
and Sweco FFNS. Conversion is also under way of offices and
retail space in the Västerbotten block in Torsvik, Lidingö.
In 2003, JM signed a lease with the transport and logistics
company DHL for the newly built office property Norra
Brunnsviken in Solna. The lease runs for five years and comprises approximately 7,400 sq.m., corresponding to twothirds of the property. The tenants moved in during the first
quarter of 2004.
In ongoing commercial projects, leases have so far been
signed for approximately 16,000 sq.m. out of a total of
25,000 sq.m.

been 16%. The Group’s changed return target is 10–15% over
a business cycle. Earnings per share for 2003 amounted to
SEK 7. In the fourth quarter, net debt could be decreased by
SEK 1,400m due to the improved cash flow.
SUMMARY OF THE GROUP
MARKET AND SALES
CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT
JM’s net sales decreased in 2003, mainly due to a lower number of housing starts in the first nine months of the year.
However, the housing market in Stockholm, which is important to JM, stabilised in the second half of the year, after the
previously reported period of reduced demand.
The improved market, a broader product range which
includes homes in lower price bands, and intensified sales
efforts, contributed to a substantial increase in the number
of sold residential units in the form of signed contracts of
27% during the year to 3,189 (2,511). The good sales during
the fourth quarter, combined with a stable reservation rate,
allowed JM to start production of a large number of residential units during the fourth quarter. This had a positive
impact on both net sales and cash flow. The negative earnings
trend for JM Residential Stockholm could thus be broken.
Despite the substantially increased sales of homes, earnings for the full year 2003 were lower than in 2002, which
was mainly due to low margins in older ongoing residential
projects in Stockholm. At the same time, revenue recognition
is conservative for newly started projects. Earnings were also
reduced by the lower sales.
The earnings trend for JM’s other operations was stable,
although earnings in Norway declined compared with the
previous year due to a lower average revenue level for residential units sold during the year.

IMPROVED CONTROL AND OVERSIGHT
During 2003, JM introduced a new structure for stricter control and project oversight routines, particularly for newly
started residential projects in the Group. This involved extensive work throughout 2003 which is now essentially completed.
This also led to postponement of production starts to the latter
part of the year. Our efforts to increase internal efficiency and
reduce costs continue to have high priority.

The Group’s return on equity for 2003 amounted to 6%.

NEW CONTROL AND
PROJECT OVERSIGHT ROUTINES
In 2003 a large number of measures were adopted to improve
control and governance of JM’s operations. Decisions on
starting-up and overall design of projects are now always
made in business unit management or group management,
or, for major projects, by the Board. The assignments of
external auditors have been widened.
New and formalised monitoring routines have been introduced with a special focus on large projects. The business
area and regional managers submit quarterly reports to the
President, Vice President and CFO. Assessment data includes the financial history of the project, future anticipated
revenues and expenses and the sales and reservations situation. Selected major projects are subject to a more in-depth
examination by auditors and are reported to JM’s Audit
Committee on a regular basis. Special oversight groups have
also been set up for the very largest projects.
Project oversight routines have been tightened up considerably. This applies in particular to the JM Residential Stockholm
business unit and JM Production, including well-documented
reviews that are carried out in conjunction with pre-construction and production start. A special project inspection group
has also reviewed all projects within JM Residential Stockholm
where production started during 2003 in order to quality
assure the transfer to the new project oversight routines.

B O A R D O F D I R E C T O R S ’ R E P O RT
During 2003 major work was carried out to develop a groupwide pre-construction process designed to achieve greater
efficiency and lower costs while retaining high quality and
high customer values.
STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENT
In line with the aim of further streamlining operations
towards residential project development, the strategy for the
Group’s market orientation, product range, geographical
spread, building rights portfolio and holding of investment
properties has been sharpened.
JM will increase its customer and market orientation.
Customer satisfaction will be further increased and the service content of JM’s business will be further developed.
The product range is being broadened both as regards
type of homes and homes in lower price bands without
renouncing quality homes in attractive locations.
Geographically, the focus will continue to be to operate in
growth markets and for expansion to mainly take place in the
Nordic countries.
The Group’s investment properties will entirely comprise
properties intended for project development and will as far
as possible consist of residential properties. Project development of commercial properties will be limited and primarily
support residential development.
UPDATED FINANCIAL TARGETS
JM’s margin target has been restated from the earlier project
development margin of 10% by 2005 to an operating margin
of 10%. The new margin target includes profit from property
sales, operating net and group-wide expenses. The changeover to a new margin target is a natural consequence of the
completed extensive sales of the older property portfolio
where the Group’s income statement and balance sheet can
now entirely be seen as attributable to project operations.
Housing starts will take place in pace with secured demand and quality assured pre-construction and production
planning.
The profitability target for return on equity after tax has
been changed to 10–15% over a business cycle from the previous five-year weighted average of 15%.
The targets for a dividend share of 50% of net profit and
an equity ratio of 35% over a business cycle remain unchanged.

MARKET TRENDS
STOCKHOLM – RESIDENTIAL
House prices stabilised in the second half of the year, in both
the second-hand market and in JM’s projects. Demand for
JM’s homes is good in both ongoing and new projects. A
slightly sluggish trend can still be noted for sales of larger,
more expensive homes.
STOCKHOLM – COMMERCIAL
The Stockholm property market is characterised by continued
falls in rental levels and high vacancies. The greatest impact of
this is on older office premises. Demand and rental levels in
newly developed, space-efficient offices in locations with good
communications are relatively good.
REST OF SWEDEN – RESIDENTIAL
Market prices remain stable. Demand is favourable in JM’s
ongoing projects and interest in newly started projects is
substantial. Demand and prices depend entirely, however, on
the attractiveness and location of individual projects. Sales
processes for large homes in Gothenburg are more drawn out
than previously.
INTERNATIONAL
Demand for homes in Norway was weaker in the first half of
the year, but this trend then reversed due to an improved business climate and falling interest rates. A more stable employment situation and interest rates at an historically low level
contributed to increased interest in JM’s projects during the
second half. Sales of large homes in Oslo were somewhat slow.
In Denmark, the housing market in Copenhagen was characterised by stable demand and unchanged prices during the
year. The introduction of interest-only loans helped to stimulate demand.
In Belgium, JM is experiencing continued high demand for
both functional offices and high-standard homes in attractive
locations. The limited number of new homes and low interest
rates mean that prices continue to rise in most municipalities.
NET SALES
The JM Group’s net sales in 2003 amounted to SEK 7,787m
(8,872), a decrease of 12% compared with the previous year.
The lower net sales were mainly attributable to a lower
number of housing starts in Sweden and reduced external

B O A R D O F D I R E C T O R S ’ R E P O RT
contract work for JM Production. A lower average revenue
level for residential development also reduced net sales.
The lower number of housing starts in the Swedish operations is mainly attributable to the JM Residential Stockholm
business unit, where net sales decreased by 11%.
The JM Residential Sweden business unit reported more
stable development. Net sales decreased by 5%.
Net sales in the JM Production business unit fell sharply.
This reduction was planned and is due to the lower proportion of external contract work.
In the JM Commercial business unit net sales decreased
considerably due to continued sales of the property portfolio.
JM International showed an increase in net sales of 10%.
Weaker volume development in Norway was balanced by
higher net sales in both Denmark and Belgium.
JM International’s operating profit decreased to SEK 72m
(90). This less favourable result is due to a lower average revenue level for homes sold in Norway during the year as well
as low margins in Denmark.

SEKm
The JM Group’s operating profit decreased by 27% in 2003
to SEK 478m (652).
This result includes gains from property sales of SEK
411m (523).
The JM Residential Stockholm business unit’s operating
loss was SEK 22m (–160). This negative result was mainly
due to a lower number of production starts, but was also due
to weak earnings in a number of ongoing projects. More conservative revenue assessment in early phases of ongoing projects, re-planning costs and increased marketing and sales
efforts also contributed to the negative earnings.
The JM Residential Sweden business unit reported an
operating profit of SEK 98m (180). This lower result was
partly attributable to more sluggish sales of large residential
units in Gothenburg.
The JM Production business unit’s operating profit amounted to SEK 34m (–27). Phasing out of unprofitable units and the
sale of non-strategic operations contributed to an improved
margin. The negative result in 2002 was attributable to a provision for risk of loss in one major project. This provision for risk
of loss was reversed in the fourth quarter of 2003 with no earnings impact, following settlement of an outstanding dispute.
JM Commercial’s operating profit amounted to SEK 358m
(634), of which SEK 374m (513) was attributable to gains
from property sales. The lower earnings for the business
unit, adjusted for property sales, are attributable to lower
volumes due to the continued sale of the property portfolio.

Capitalisation of interest expenses related to commercial

expenses decreased, mainly due to a lower average debt. In
conjunction with the receipt of proceeds from property
sales, loans of approximately SEK 1,000m were redeemed in
the first quarter of 2003 which led to costs of SEK 30m for
early redemption.

expense amounted to SEK 80m (115), of which current tax
SEK –84m (–228) and deferred tax SEK 4m (113).
Property tax, which is treated as an operating expense,
was charged against earnings in the amount of SEK 25m (44).
The order backlog at year-end amounted to SEK 5,685m
(5,925) and mainly pertained to residential production.
Order bookings in 2003 amounted to SEK 7,145m (6,690).
The JM Residential Stockholm and JM Residential Sweden
business units report lower order bookings, while JM International is showing a significant increase.
PROFIT AFTER FINANCIAL ITEMS
PROJECT DEVELOPMENT
Project development of housing and commercial premises is
JM’s core business. Undeveloped and developed land is
acquired and transformed through construction, conversion or
extension into attractive living and working environments.
Profit from project development amounted to SEK 182m
(459). The margin in these operations amounted to 2.4% (5.4)
for 2003. Project-related property sales and write-downs
made a net contribution of SEK 45m (232).
The number of sold residential units in the form of signed
contracts during the year rose sharply to 3,189 (2,511). The
improvement was attributable to a stabilised market, broader
product range and increased marketing efforts. The good sales
in the fourth quarter, combined with a stable reservations rate,
allowed a large number of housing starts in the fourth quarter.
The number of housing starts for the full year totalled 2,714
(2,711). The number of unsold residential units six months
after final inspection fell in the fourth quarter. The segment for
large homes in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Oslo remains the
part of the market with the weakest demand. Both production
starts and sales volumes can vary over time depending on the
dates of project starts and the size of individual projects.
Despite increased sales, JM is retaining its higher requirements on the proportion of reserved residential units prior to
production starts. In addition to delays due to re-planning, the
higher reservation requirements reduced the number of housing starts in the first nine months of the year. The high sales in
relation to the number of housing starts means that the level of
risk for JM decreased during 2003. Commercial project development continues to be conducted with considerable caution.
The building rights portfolio comprises approximately
23,400 residential units which can be compared with just
over 25,500 at year-end 2002. Valuations, in co-operation
INVESTMENTS IN DEVELOPMENT PROPERTIES
Total acquisitions of development properties in 2003
amounted to SEK 664m (629). Net investments in development properties amounted to SEK –163m (–49). The portfolio then amounted to SEK 3,631m (3,871). These holdings are
a prerequisite for JM’s residential project development.
INVESTMENTS IN INVESTMENT PROPERTIES
Investments in and acquisitions of investment properties
amounted to SEK 1,772m (645). Investments in existing

building rights for commercial premises corresponding to
approximately 200,000 sq.m. with a book value of SEK 187m.
During the past year, the book value of the portfolio of
fully developed commercial properties decreased from SEK
2,109m to SEK 515m.
INVESTMENT PROPERTIES
JM’s portfolio of investment properties amounts to approximately SEK 2,800m, mostly comprising residential properties
for further development and office projects under construction.
Fully developed properties only account for a small portion.
The operating net from investment properties amounted to
SEK 109m (293) in 2003. The lower operating net is due to
major property sales in 2003 and 2002, which were carried out
in line with the Group’s strategy to sell fully developed properties. In 2003 properties were sold for SEK 2,219m (3,015) with
capital gains of SEK 411m (523), of which SEK 108m (473) is
included in profit from project development. Write-downs of
investment properties were made with SEK 63m (34).
Investments in existing investment properties amounted
to SEK 350m (483). In addition, residential properties were
acquired for SEK 1,422m.
The property market for commercial premises in Stockholm is characterised by a continued fall in rental levels and
vacancies of 15–16%. New and recently renovated premises
continued to perform relatively well in comparison. Vacancies in JM’s portfolio of fully developed commercial and residential properties amount to 4% (10) of annual rents and 4%
(10) of space. The occupancy rate for the Swedish office projects under construction amounts to approximately 65% of
annual rents and 64% of space.
The Läraren property in Stockholm was sold for SEK 70m
in the fourth quarter. Earlier in the year, JM sold the Svärdet
properties in Mörby for SEK 931m and at the same time
acquired 2,100 residential units in Nacka and Vaxholm for
SEK 1,422m. Other major property deals during the year
included the sale of the newly developed hotel property
Pennfäktaren 10 on Vasagatan in Stockholm to a Norwegian
insurance company for SEK 575m, and the sale of the Pilen
30 property for SEK 180m and of a newly developed office
property in central Brussels for SEK 133m.
Through a strategic deal comprising residential portfolios in
Vaxholm and Nacka, with very low vacancies and therefore secure
cash flows, JM acquired an opportunity to develop two attractive
property portfolios, among other things through densification
with new homes. Many tenants have shown an interest in conversion to tenant-owner co-operatives, which JM also favours.
MARKET VALUES OF JM’S INVESTMENT PROPERTIES
In an appraisal conducted in co-operation with external consultants, the market value of JM’s portfolio of investment properties at year-end 2003 was estimated at SEK 3,205m (3,478).
The corresponding book value amounted to SEK 2,833m
(2,774). The surplus value thus amounts to SEK 400m (700). A

THE WORK OF THE BOARD IN 2003
CHANGED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES 2005 (IFRS1))
During 2003, JM has carried out work to plan the changeover to
IFRS where two main areas are mainly relevant to JM:
IAS 2) 11 – Construction Contracts – within the framework
of the Swedish Construction Federation, preparations have
been made in 2003 to define a revenue recognition that meets
the criteria according to the industry’s interpretation of IAS
11. The industry has not yet stipulated the new industry recommendation in every detail. The current draft stipulates a
2)
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)
International Accounting Standards (IAS)
conservative revenue recognition that is linked to sold residential units. This will lead to a more conservative revenue
reporting than that prescribed by the current industry recommendation. JM plans to change over to the new industry recommendation with effect from 1 January 2005.
IAS 19 – Employee Benefits – all the Group’s pension commitments have been examined. The revaluation effect on
opening equity for 2004 amounts to SEK –0.7m. The assumptions made regarding discounting, return and salary development are on a par with established practice.
SHARE BUY-BACK PROGRAMME
The Board of Directors had a mandate from the Annual General Meeting for the repurchase of up to 10% of the number of
shares outstanding. Buy-backs for SEK 154m (1.4 million
shares) were made at the beginning of 2003. The company has
not repurchased own shares under the present mandate since
the Annual General Meeting in April 2003.
KEY FIGURES
At the Annual General Meeting held on 23 April 2003 it was
decided that the Board should comprise seven regular Board
members as well as two employee representatives with two
deputies appointed by the trade unions.
The Board held one statutory meeting and ten subsequent
meetings. In accordance with its procedures, during 2003
the Board examined especially strategic issues as well as
internal control and efficiency.
In February 2003 a Compensation Committee and Audit
Committee were set up each comprising three members of the
Board. During the year the Compensation Committee held
four meetings and the Audit Committee held eight meetings.

Comments on
the cash flow statement
Cash flow from operating activities declined to SEK 1,504m
(2,161). Operating activities, before interest and tax, contributed SEK 180m (634). This represents a decline of SEK
454m after adjustment of items with no effect on liquid
assets, of which gains on the sale of properties of SEK 411m
account for a significant portion.
Sales of investment properties decreased compared with the
previous year. At the same time, the substantial decrease in
receivables from property sales (approximately SEK 1,000m)
made a positive contribution so the net contribution to cash
flow is unchanged compared with 2002. JM has a receivable
from property sales of SEK 54m (1,063) which will be paid in
2004. The reduced holding of investment properties also led to
a lower contribution to cash flow from rental income.

JM invested in development and investment properties for
approximately SEK 3,456m (1,678). The higher level of investment had a negative impact on cash flow of approximately
SEK 1,778m compared with 2002. In 2003, the JM Group’s
acquisitions included properties in Vaxholm and Älta in conjunction with an exchange deal.
Change in current receivables and liabilities had a total
positive effect on cash flow of SEK 398m.
Cash flow from operating activities was partly used for
dividends to shareholders, SEK 281m, and partly for buybacks of own shares with SEK 154m. The short-term loans
raised during the year were all amortised on a current basis.
During the year cash flows for each quarter fluctuated
substantially (see section Quarterly Overview – Group, page
81). During the quarters, JM sold large property portfolios
with postponed payment. The net effect, the sales proceeds
minus the receivable, for each quarter affected cash flow by
approximately SEK 2,191m, SEK 480m, SEK 331m and SEK
83m. Cash flow was affected by buy-backs in the first quarter by SEK 154m and by a dividend of SEK 281m in the second quarter.

Changed accounting principle relates to accelerated depreciation of properties which was previously stated as an untaxed reserve.With effect from 2002,
accelerated depreciation of properties (SEK 136m) is reported as shareholders’ equity to 72% (SEK 98m) and as a deferred tax liability to 28% (SEK 38m).

Accounting principles
The accounting principles applied conform with the recommendations of the Swedish Financial Accounting Standards Council.
Adaptations have mainly been made in accordance with the
Swedish Construction Federation’s industry comments. The
accounting and valuation principles for the Group are unchanged compared with the previous year.
Changes
With effect from 1 January 2003, JM has applied the following
new recommendations from the Swedish Financial Accounting
Standards Council: RR 2:02 Inventories, RR 22 Presentation of
Financial Statements, RR 25 Segment Reporting, RR 27 Financial
Instruments.
Application of the new recommendations did not affect the
company’s income statements and balance sheets.
With regard to RR 25 Segment Reporting, JM’s accounts in
essential details already conformed with the new recommendation. Reporting according to the new recommendation is shown
in Notes 1 and 2 in the Notes to the financial statements.
New recommendations 2004
With effect from 1 January 2004, JM will apply RR 29, Employee
Benefits. Application of RR 29 means that defined benefit pension plans within all the Group’s companies will be reported
according to common principles. In JM’s accounts until year-end
2003, such plans are reported according to local rules and regulations in each country. In accordance with the interim rules for
the recommendation, an opening liability will be determined as
per 1 January 2004 in accordance with RR 29.This opening liability is expected to exceed the liability reported at 31 December
2003, in accordance with the earlier principles, by SEK 1.0m.The
excess liability figure will then be reported as per 1 January 2004
as an increase in provisions for pensions as well as a corresponding decrease in shareholders’ equity. In accordance with the
interim rules for the recommendation,JM will not restate earlier
financial years in accordance with the new recommendation.
Consolidated financial statements
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Swedish Financial Accounting Standards Council
recommendation RR 1:00.
The consolidated financial statements include those companies
in which the Parent Company owns more than 50% of the voting
rights directly or indirectly,or otherwise has a controlling interest.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared according to the purchase accounting method, whereby consolidated
shareholders’ equity only includes the portion of subsidiaries’
equity that arose after the acquisition.
If the consolidated cost of the shares exceeds the market
value of subsidiaries’ net assets stated in the acquisition analysis,
the difference is reported as consolidated goodwill.
59
Companies acquired during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements in an amount proportionate to the
period after the acquisition. Profit from companies sold during
the year is included in the consolidated income statement until
the date of sale.
Foreign subsidiaries are regarded as operating as independent
units and their accounts have therefore been translated according to the current method, whereby all assets, provisions and
other liabilities are translated at the closing day rate and all items
in the income statement are translated at the average rate during the year.Translation differences thus arising are transferred
directly to shareholders’ equity. In the event that hedging has
been effected to balance and hedge against exchange rate differences on a net investment in an independent subsidiary, the
exchange rate difference arising from translation of the hedging
instrument is transferred directly to shareholders’ equity.
In the event of different valuations of assets and liabilities at
Group and company level a tax effect arises which is reported
as a deferred tax asset or a deferred tax liability. See also the
section on reporting income taxes.
Intra-group profits are eliminated in full.
Intra-group invoicing that is included in the cost of investment properties is included in net sales and amounts to SEK
51m for 2003.
Joint ventures
Companies and other types of joint ventures that are formed in
order to carry out specific contracting assignments in collaboration with other companies are included in the accounts
according to the proportional method. JM’s holding of associated companies is negligible.
Receivables and liabilities in foreign currency
Receivables and liabilities in foreign currency are valued at the
closing day rate.
Financial instruments
Interest rate swaps are used to change the underlying financial
liabilities’ interest rate structure in order to minimise risk and
are reported as a hedge of the same. Amounts to be paid or
received as a result of derivative contracts entered into are
reported on a current basis as interest income or interest
expense. Until the payment date, changes in market values are
not reported in the balance sheet.
JM’s financial instruments that are reported in the balance
sheet are held until maturity and include securities, receivables
and operating liabilities. They are measured and booked at
amortised cost.
Percentage of completion method
The percentage of completion method is based on the view that
an assignment is carried out in pace with completion of the
j m d e l åj rms raanp np uo ar tl rj ae pn ou ra tr i 2– 0m0a3r s 2 0 0 2
60
A C C O U N T I N G A N D V A L U AT I O N P R I N C I P L E S
respective project. Revenue and profit in the project are
reported period by period, in pace with recognition, providing a
direct link between financial reporting and the operations conducted during the period.
Revaluations (changes in forecasts) of anticipated project
revenues lead to adjustment of previously recognised revenue
in the project concerned.This adjustment is included in the net
profit for the period.
Anticipated losses are charged to the profit for the period in full.
The “first krona principle” is applied,whereby revenue recognition is carried out according to the percentage of completion
method already at the preliminary stage of the project and continues according to the same principle until the project is completed.
The percentage of completion method is also applied in the
Parent Company.
Most of JM’s operations pertain to projects conducted by JM
for subsequent sale. These operations consist of projects on
JM’s own land for production of housing to be sold as apartments to tenant-owner co-operatives or tracts of single-family
homes for sale directly to consumers.
However, revenue recognition from JM’s own projects for
future sale must meet the following two basic criteria with
regard to reliability:
• Declarations or preliminary agreements must exist to such
an extent that the building contractor, based on reliable
experience, can assume that the full provision of the end
product (the future residential units) is secured.
• The building contractor’s decisions regarding the technical
and financial framework, timetable and operating organisation for implementation of the project shall meet the specifications made when the client-principal relationship was formalised through the transfer of land and signing of a
contracting agreement.
In residential project development the development property is
normally owned by JM at the start of the project.
When production starts the property is transferred by book
value to the project and included with the project’s other production costs.The cost charged for the property therefore affects the
recognised project revenue at that time. Interest expenses are
included among production costs from the start of production.
Revenue recognition, sale of properties
Income from the sale of properties is normally recognised as
revenue when the purchase contract is signed. This assumes
that the seller does not have to carry out any essential action
according to the purchase contract and that the risk of cancellation is not considered to exist. Reporting of every property sale
is examined individually.
Investment properties (Properties held for resale)
JM’s investment properties are classified as current assets and
valued in accordance with the Swedish Financial Accounting
Standards Council’s recommendation RR 2:02 Inventories.Starting in the first quarter of 2004, these properties will be designated as properties held for resale and called project properties.
In line with JM’s focus on project development, the Group’s
investment properties are classified based on project status as
follows:
• Fully developed properties
• Properties under construction
• Properties for further development
Fully developed properties refer to properties fully developed by JM
and properties to be sold without further development. During
the period until sale, the properties are managed by JM and operating profit is reported as profit from property management.
Properties under construction are properties undergoing new
construction, extension or renovation into fully developed
properties. Operating profit from rental activities during the
renovation or extension period is reported as profit from property management.
Properties for further development are properties that are currently rented and where plans for further development are in
progress. Operating profit here is also reported as profit from
property management.
Production costs for JM’s fully developed properties include
both direct costs and a reasonable share of indirect costs.
Interest expenses pertaining to production to be held for
property management purposes are expensed in the Parent
Company. In the consolidated financial statements, a corresponding amount is added to the cost of investment properties.
Development properties
Properties, undeveloped or developed, that are intended for
production of tenant-owned apartments/owned apartments or
single-family homes and land for investment properties are
reported as development properties. The properties are normally sold immediately after production. Operating profit from
development properties is reported as profit from project
development operations. Interest is not included in the cost of
development properties.
Write-downs
If on the balance sheet date there is any indication that a tangible or intangible fixed asset has impaired in value a calculation is
performed of the recoverable value of the asset.If the estimated
recoverable value is lower than the carrying amount, a writedown is made of the asset’s recoverable value.
A write-down is reversed when the basis for the write-down,
wholly or partly, no longer exists.
The term write-down is also used in conjunction with revaluation of properties reported as current assets. Valuation of
these properties is performed, however, according to the lower
j m d e l åj rms raanp np uo ar tl rj ae pn ou ra tr i 2– 0m0a3r s 2 0 0 2
A C C O U N T I N G A N D V A L U AT I O N P R I N C I P L E S
of cost and market principle and follows RR 2:02, Inventories.
Provisions
Provisions are reported when JM has or is considered to have a
commitment as a result of events that have occurred and where
it is probable that payments will be required in order to meet
the commitment.A further prerequisite is that it is possible to
make a reliable estimation of the amount to be paid.
Provisions are made for future costs on the basis of guarantee commitments. This calculation is based on the estimated
costs for the project concerned.
Pensions
The greater part of the JM Group’s pension commitments
(Sweden and Norway) comprise defined benefit pension plans.
For these plans a provision and annual cost are calculated on the
basis of the present value of earned future benefits. Provisions
and annual costs attributable to defined benefit pension benefits
are reported in JM’s income statements and balance sheets
applying local rules and regulations in the country concerned. In
some of JM’s subsidiaries pension commitments comprise
defined contribution pension plans where payments are made
on a regular basis to independent authorities or bodies that
administer the plan. For these defined contribution plans, a running pension cost is reported which matches the amounts paid.
Goodwill
Goodwill on the acquisition of Byggholt AS (1998) and AS Prosjektfinans (1999) in Norway is being amortised over 10 years.
The amortisation period is motivated by the strategic and longterm nature of the acquisition and the reputation of these companies in the Norwegian market.
Machinery and equipment
The following depreciation rates are applied:
Construction machinery
Computers and other equipment
Vehicles
10%
20–33%
20%
Leasing
The Group has leasing agreements pertaining to office equipment and company cars.These are reported as operating leases.
The leasing agreements are of a limited scope.
Mergers
Mergers of wholly owned group companies are reported according to the consolidated value method, whereby all assets and liabilities are taken over at values based on the acquisition analysis
carried out in connection with the original acquisition of the
company in question.The merger difference is taken directly to
shareholders’ equity. Mergers are reported in accordance with
general advice from the Swedish Accounting Standards Board.
61
Group contributions
Group contributions paid and received in the Parent Company
are reported according to the pronouncement made by the
Swedish Financial Accounting Standards Council’s Emerging
Issues task force, whereby Group contributions paid and
received to minimise the Group’s tax are reported as a
decrease/increase in unrestricted equity.
Tax
The Tax item in the income statement includes current and
deferred income tax for Swedish and foreign group units. The
companies in the Group are liable for tax according to existing
legislation in each country.The state income tax rate in Sweden
was 28% during the year and is calculated on nominal book profit
with an addition for non-deductible items and a deduction for
non-taxable income and other deductions, primarily tax-free
dividends from subsidiaries.The balance sheet method is applied
to accounting for income taxes. According to this method
deferred tax liabilities and assets are reported for all temporary
differences between book and fiscal values respectively for
assets and liabilities and for other fiscal deductions or deficits.
Deferred tax liabilities and tax assets are calculated on the basis
of the anticipated tax rate when the temporary difference is cancelled.The effects of changes in applicable tax rates are taken to
income in the period the change becomes law. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation reserve to the extent the company cannot stipulate that it is probable that the underlying tax
asset can be realised within the foreseeable future.
Cash flow statement
The cash flow statement has been prepared according to the
indirect method in accordance with the Swedish Financial
Accounting Standards Council’s recommendation RR 7,
Accounting for cash flows.The analysis has been adapted to JM’s
operations.
Since buying and selling of investment and development
properties are part of JM’s ongoing activities,these are reported
under the corresponding sections of the cash flow statement.
The item “reversal of investment properties” mainly refers to
utilisation of properties for production and is matched by a cash
flow in the form of invoicing. Investments in and sales of properties are reported gross without adjustment for any assumption
or redemption of loans.
Buying and selling of fixed assets not pertaining to properties
are reported under “Investing activities, other”.
Liquid assets are classified as cash and bank balances and
short-term financial investments that are traded on the open
market at known amounts and are associated with only a marginal risk for value fluctuations. Liquid assets also include shortterm investments with a maturity of less than three months
from the acquisition date.
The year’s paid tax is reported in full under operating activities.

Comments: The JM Group’s primary basis of division for segment reporting is the geographical areas Sweden and International.The Swedish operations are also divided into four
business units: JM Residential Stockholm, JM Residential Sweden, JM Production and JM Commercial, which are reported separately within the Sweden segment. JM’s secondary
segment comprises project development. Since there is only one secondary segment, information is provided in the income statements, balance sheets and cash flow statements.
1)
Unallocated items within Sweden comprise elimination of intra-group billing between business units.The JM Production business unit is primarily a supplier to JM Residential
Stockholm but some production is also carried out for external customers.

Comments: The JM Group’s primary basis of division for segment reporting is the geographical areas Sweden and International.The Swedish operations are also divided into four
business units: JM Residential Stockholm, JM Residential Sweden, JM Production and JM Commercial, which are reported separately within the Sweden segment. JM’s secondary
segment comprises project development. Since there is only one secondary segment information is provided in the income statements, balance sheets and cash flow statements.
1)
The assets and liabilities and shareholders’ equity that are not included in JM’s definition of operating capital are not allocated by segment.They are reported as unallocated
items since they mainly cannot be allocated in a reasonable and fair manner.
2)
The items within current receivables and liabilities that are included in JM’s definition of operating capital are allocated by segment. Other items are reported as unallocated items.
3)
Investments in intangible fixed assets are allocated by segment.Tangible fixed assets are not included in JM’s definition of operating capital and these investments are therefore
stated as an unallocated item.
A definition of operating capital is provided in the section Definitions, page 83.

Earnings per share after dilution (SEK)
JM AB issued convertible debentures in 1999–2001 which carry entitlement to
conversion to a total of 543,588 ordinary shares, during the period 16 June 2001 –
1 June 2003. A total of 448,507 shares were converted, of which 1,793 in 2003.
The remaining convertibles were redeemed on 1 June 2003.
In 2001 all employees in Sweden were invited to acquire subscription warrants in the
company.The warrant programme comprises a total of 600,000 warrants. A total of
376,000 warrants were subscribed for in 2001 and 2002.The price per warrant was
determined based on the Black & Scholes method.The price on the first subscription
date was SEK 20. Each warrant carries entitlement to subscribe for one share in the
period 3 May 2004 to 30 June 2004 for SEK 271.50.The price for JM’s shares at 31
December 2003 amounted to SEK 106. Outstanding warrants do not give rise to any
dilution effect since the present value of the subscription price exceeds the fair value
of the shares.
The total number of shares after full conversion, but excluding warrants, amounts to
28,065,407 (29,560,488).
The average number of shares before dilution for 2003 amounts to 28,311,705
(29,857,486).The average number of shares after dilution for 2003 amounts to
28,311,705 (29,954,360). Calculation of earnings per share before dilution is based
on net profit for the year. In the calculation of earnings per share after dilution, net
profit for the year was adjusted by interest expenses for convertible debentures of
SEK 169,000 (342,000).

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND
FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
JM’s Finance unit is responsible for the Group’s short- and long-term financing, liquidity planning, cash management and financial risk management.The division of responsibility and control of the Group’s overall financing activities are regulated by a
finance policy established by the Board of Directors.
Finance policy
The finance policy specifies the objectives for finance operations, overall responsibility and specific rules and limits.The objectives for the finance operations are to:
• Support operating activities in residential and commercial project development.
• Optimise use of capital and cash flow management.
• Control and manage the financial risks to which JM is exposed.
Financial instruments and financial risk management
The nominal amount for outstanding interest rate swaps amounts to SEK 1,400m
(1,100). At 31 December 2003 fixed interest rates varied between 3.18% and 5.84%
(5.1% and 6%).The short rate is 2.9%.
JM AB has a loan in NOK of SEK 85m.The loan is an indexation for part of the net
investment in Byggholt AS, Norway The exchange gain at 31 December 2003 amounted
to SEK 15m (–7) and is reported as a translation difference in equity in the Group.The
Group has not effected any other currency hedging for balance sheet exposure.
Furthermore, JM has no transaction exposure since operations are only conducted
within the respective country.
Valuation of financial assets and liabilities
JM used generally accepted methods for calculating the fair value of the Group’s
financial instruments as of 31 December 2003 and 2002.The fair value of interestbearing liabilities to credit institutions is assumed to correspond to the book value
since they mainly have a short fixed-term of less than three months. For all other
financial assets and liabilities, e.g. liquid assets, accounts receivable and accounts
payable, the book value is assumed to provide a good approximation of the fair value.

The Group’s financial risks primarily consist of interest rate risk, financing risk, liquidity
risk and, to a limited extent, currency risk.The choice of maturities and fixed interest
spread is governed by several factors, such as capital tied up in ongoing projects, business
risk, anticipated dates for sale of properties, the terms of leases in investment properties
and the Group’s financial position in general.These factors are summarised in the
Board’s established guidelines for fixed interest spread and maturity structure with
scope for deviations within certain limits based on the current market situation.There
are also rules for handling interest rate risk in building loans during the construction
period and final financing of tenant-owner co-operatives.
Recognised revenue in
work in progress
Cash is kept at a low level and any surplus liquidity may only be invested in banks defined
by JM and in Swedish fixed-income securities without currency risk. Payment preparedness is maintained through overdraft facilities and committed credit lines.

Finance strategy
JM’s basic finance strategy is to clearly link cash flows from projects in progress and

During the production period of a tenant-owner co-operative, the JM Group provides guarantees for part of the short-term financing that exceeds a co-operative’s
future long-term loans. Guarantee commitments, other relate entirely to this shortterm financing.The long-term loans are secured by the mortgage deeds taken out
by the co-operative itself.
1)
4)
The Parent Company and the Group also have guarantee commitments for longterm management contracts in the form of payment and rental guarantees.
The Group also has obligations to acquire unsold participations in tenant-owner cooperatives formed by JM. See Note 16 Participations in tenant-owner co-operatives
and similar.
A tenant-owner co-operative’s only revenue is its monthly charges. In order to
ensure that the estimated monthly charges are received by the co-operative, JM
provides a 7-year guarantee.
The guarantee comprises an undertaking to buy such apartment which is returned to
the co-operative from the first owner. JM then buys the apartment for SEK 1 and
then pays the monthly charge to the co-operative until JM in its turn has sold the
apartment.This guarantee has existed since 1993 and has never been utilised. JM
considers it unlikely that the guarantee will need to be met in other than exceptional
cases.
The Parent Company has a recourse agreement against AB Bostadsgaranti regarding
their investment guarantee for paid contributions and charges for grant of enjoyment.The guarantee primarily ensures that the co-operative can repay a reasonable
amount (maximum contribution and charges) to the tenant-owner who has a right of
termination due to significant increases in charges during the first year after final
accounts, subsequently Bostadsgaranti has no liability to pay anything. Bostadsgaranti
has not paid out anything since 1962.

AUDITORS’ REPORT
TO THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF JM AB (PUBL)
COMPANY REG. NO. 556045-2103
We have examined the annual accounts, the consolidated
financial statements, the accounting records and the administration by the Board of Directors and the President of JM AB
(publ) for the year 2003. These accounts and the administration of the Company are the responsibility of the Board of
Directors and the President. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on the annual accounts, the consolidated financial
statements and the administration based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards in Sweden. These standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance that the annual accounts and the consolidated
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the accounts. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
their application by the Board of Directors and the President, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of information in the annual report and consolidated financial statements. As a basis for our opinion concerning discharge from
liability, we examined significant decisions, actions taken
and circumstances of the Company in order to determine the
liability, if any, to the Company of any Board member or the
President. We also examined whether any Board member of
the President has, in any other way, acted in contravention of
the Swedish Companies Act, the Swedish Annual Accounts
Act or the Articles of Association. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion set out below.
The annual accounts and the consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Swedish
Annual Accounts Act and, thereby, give a true and fair view
of the Company’s and the Group’s financial position and
results of operations in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in Sweden.
We recommend to the Annual General Meeting that the
income statement and the balance sheet of the Parent Company and the Group be adopted, that the profit for the Parent Company be dealt with in accordance with the proposal
in the Board of Directors’ Report and that the members of
the Board of Directors and the President be discharged from
liability for the financial year.
