Through this press release, Investment AB Kinnevik hereby informs the shareholders of Metro International S.A. of the conclusions of the second valuation report done by the independent expert Grant Thornton AB ("Grant Thornton") for the shares concerned by the squeeze-out.

The valuation date retained by Grant Thornton, acting as second independent expert, is the publishing date of the first valuation report, i.e. 4 May 2015. The conclusions of the second valuation report (the "Second Valuation Report") of Grant Thornton read as follows:

  • Based on the valuation analysis we have found the value to be SEK 0.73 for Class A shares and SEK 0.78 for Class B shares.
  • The offered price by Kinnevik of SEK 0.90 and SEK 0.94 imply premiums of 23% for the Class A share and 21% for the Class B share compared to our valuation analysis.
  • The implicit value from a comparable quoted companies valuation (outlined in Appendix G), based on an estimated EBIT-margin of 3.36% for FY16, resulted in a value of SEK 0.46 per Class A-share and SEK 0.50 per Class B-share.
