Concordia Bus AB (“Concordia” or the “Company”) hereby submits the unaudited interim financial statements for the three-month period ended February 28, 2005. The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Concordia Bus Holding AB (Reg. No. 556574-8240, domiciled in Stockholm), which is a part of the group of which Concordia Bus BV (Reg. No. 103040697, Dos No. 292558KvK, domiciled in Amsterdam, The Netherlands) is the ultimate parent company. All figures are expressed in millions of SEK if not otherwise indicated.

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with the financial statements of Concordia included in this quarterly report starting on page 10. The financial statements of Concordia are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Sweden (“Swedish GAAP”), which differ in various respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The financial year-end for Concordia is the last day of February. Unless otherwise specified in this discussion, reference to a particular year is to the financial year ended the last day of February of that year (“fiscal 2005” for the year ending February 28, 2005). The end of the fourth financial quarter for Concordia is the last day of February of each year.

The same accounting policies and methods of computation are followed in the quarterly consolidated financial statements as compared with the most recent annual financial statements except that the Company as of March 1, 2004 has revised its accounting principle for pensions. This revision was in accordance with new accounting recommendations under Swedish GAAP. In accordance with Swedish GAAP, the revision has been reflected through a restatement of the historical financial results. For an explanation of the impact, see “notes to unaudited consolidated interim financial statements”.

The proposed amendments will not take effect unless and until both the consent fee and the tender offer payments have been made. Senior Group Members and members of the Subordinated Ad Hoc Committee who hold Senior Notes will deliver their consents to Nordic pursuant to the terms of the Revised Consent Solicitation. Consents to be provided by the Senior Group Members will be sufficient to permit the amendments to the Indenture that will be requested in the Revised Consent Solicitation; andCosts

Fuel, tires and other consumable costs increased by SEK 18 million or 7%, ~~upon~~to SEK 266 million for the ~~successful~~three ~~consummation~~months ended February 28, 2005 from SEK 248 million for the three months ended February 29, 2004. This increase is primarily due to increased fuel costs of SEK 11 million. Our average fuel price for the ~~Restructuring:~~three months in Sweden was SEK 6.62 per liter compared to 5.57 per liter in Sweden for the same period last year. The remaining increase is due to increased costs for tyres of SEK 5 million and increased costs for maintenance of SEK 2 million.

The funds for the Bridge Facility and the Mezzanine Facility will be provided by certain members of the Subordinated Ad Hoc Committee. The fees payable in connection with these facilities will equal up to 2% of the amount of such facilities and 3% with respect to the Change of Control Offer. The terms of these facilities are provided in greater detail in the schedule attached to this announcement.

“We are very satisfied that the negotiations have ended successfully,” said Ragnar Norbäck, Chief Executive Officer of Nordic. “This will benefit the Concordia Group and enable us to fully concentrate on further strengthening our competitiveness and on growing our business on the Swedish, Finnish and Norwegian bus transport markets. I am proud of the excellent work done in the Concordia Group to develop our business during the arduous process of negotiating the restructuring.”

The Debt-to-Equity Swap will be subject to certain conditions including a material adverse change condition.

The above is a summary only and investors are strongly advised to read the Restructuring Agreement. It will contain additional important information not included in this summary.

This announcement is not a solicitation of consents with respect to any securities. The Solicitation is being made solely by the Consent Solicitation dated 16 March 2005, as amended from time to time.

This announcement is not an offer to sell securities in the United States. Securities may not be offered or sold in the United States other than pursuant to registration under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Act”) or an exemption from such registration.

~~FINANCING~~to ~~TERM~~the ~~SHEET~~proposed restructuring of Concordia Bus contain provision for claim on CPTA of SEK 73 million, bad debt provision of receivable due from parent and management company of SEK 33 million and professional fees of SEK 27 million. This was offset by utilization of provisions for loss making contracts which was lower by SEK 50 million for the quarter ended February 28, 2005. The remaining increase is mainly due to increased damage costs.

~~Summary~~Operating lease charges increased by SEK 11 million to SEK 112 million for the three months ended February 28, 2005 from SEK 101 million for the three months ended February 29, 2004. This increase was principally a result of ~~Mezzanine~~increased ~~Facility~~use of operating ~~General~~leases ~~Terms~~for ~~and~~buses. ~~Conditions~~The total number of buses under operating leases was 1,470 as of February 28, 2005, compared to 1,317 as of February 29, 2004.

Depreciation, amortization and write-downs

Depreciation and amortization charges comprise principally depreciation of buses and other vehicles but also relate to depreciation of tools, fixtures and fittings, buildings and computer equipment. In addition, amortization of goodwill resulting from acquisitions of bus operations is included. Depreciation and amortization costs increased by SEK 37 million from SEK 90 million for the three months ended February 29, 2004 to SEK 127 million for three months ended February 28, 2005, principally as a result of a non-recurring write-down of old buses of SEK 42 million. Total goodwill amortization was SEK 11 million for both periods.

Operating profit/ loss

Operating loss increased by SEK 126 million from a loss of SEK 129 million for the three months ended February 29, 2004 to a loss of SEK 255 million for the three months ended February 28, 2005.

Operating loss from bus operations for public authorities increased by SEK 48 million from an operating loss of SEK 113 million for the three months ended February 29, 2004, to an operating loss of SEK 161 million for the three months ended February 28, 2005, mainly due to higher fuel costs, increased operating lease charges and costs in connection with the proposed restructuring of Concordia Bus.

Operating profit from express bus services decreased to SEK 2 million for the three months ended February 28, 2005 from SEK 4 million for the three months ended February 29, 2004.

Operating loss from coach hire services was SEK 4 million for the three months ended February 28, 2005, compared to an operating loss of SEK 2 million for the three months ended February 29, 2004.

Operating loss relating to head office items and others increased by SEK 75 million from SEK 6 million for the three months ended February 29, 2004, to SEK 81 million for the three months ended February 28, 2005, mainly due to costs in connection with the proposed restructuring of Concordia Bus.

Financial Income and Expenses

Financial income and expenses includes interest income from cash and cash equivalents and interest expense from bank loans and other financial indebtedness. Financial income and expenses decreased by SEK 40 million to net financial expenses of SEK 108 million for the three months ended February 28, 2005, compared to net financial expenses of SEK 148 million for the three months ended February 29, 2004.

This result can be primarily attributed to a write-off of deferred financing costs by SEK 23 million and exit costs for EUR-hedges by SEK 13 million related to senior debt and the refinancing of syndicated loans with secured senior notes at 9.125% in January 2004.

Taxes

The standard rate of taxation in Sweden is 28%. Concordia Bus has not paid any taxes for the period ended February 28, 2005. The effective tax rate for the three months ended February 28, 2005 was 1%. This effective tax rate results from the amortization of goodwill (3%) and valuation allowance of net-operating losses (24%).

		the existing EUR 160 million 11% Senior Subordinated Notes due February 2010 (the “Subordinated Notes”) (including all accrued interest) for ordinary shares of Bus representing on a primary basis at least 97.5% of the issued ordinary share capital of Bus (the “Restructuring”); (b) none of Nordic, Holding, or Bus shall have commenced a voluntary proceeding, nor shall an involuntary proceeding have been commenced against any of them, under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the U.S. Code or any other applicable insolvency or moratorium legislation save for the commencement of Swedish moratorium or reorganisation proceedings in respect of Bus; (c) all definitive legal documents with respect to the Proposed Financing (the “Finance Documents”), including legal opinions, shall have been prepared and accepted by the Lenders and their legal counsel engaged in relation to the Proposed Financing, and each of the Borrowers shall have represented in writing to the Lenders that it is in compliance with the terms of the Finance Documents; (d) payment (simultaneously with drawdown) by the Borrowers, in relation to each respective Tranche, of the Commitment and Funding Fees in the amount, at the time and in the manner set forth in the Fees Letter and all other fees then due and payable, plus all other reasonable costs and expenses of the Lenders not previously paid arising in connection with the Proposed Financing or the Restructuring; (e) satisfaction of all appropriate corporate conditions precedent (i.e. due incorporation; due authorisation) in respect of the Borrowers; and (f) Holding, after having made all reasonable enquiries of the Finance Director and Chief Executive of Nordic, shall have represented in writing to the Lenders that, according to the results of such inquiries, (i) all information that has been requested by or on behalf of the Lenders (the “Disclosed Information”) has been disclosed to the Lenders, (ii) the Disclosed Information (except for financial projections) is accurate in all material respects, (iii) the Disclosed Information is not rendered misleading by the omission of other information, known to Bus or Holding but not disclosed and (iv) the financial projections provided to the Lenders were made in good faith by the directors of Nordic and are based on assumptions which the directors of Nordic believe to be reasonable and appropriate.

Trend Information

During the quarter ended February 28, 2005, results for 427 buses that Concordia had submitted bids for were announced. We had operated 119 of these 427 buses but in the bids during the last quarter we retained the contract for only 1 bus out of the 119 and won 6 from our competitors.

Year ended February 28, 2005 compared to the year ended February 29, 2004

The following section provides an analysis of our results of operations between the actual numbers for the twelve month period March 1, 2004 – February 28, 2005 as compared with the twelve month period March 1, 2003 – February 29, 2004.

Revenues

Revenues increased SEK 51 million or 1% from SEK 4,761 million for the year ended February 29, 2004 to SEK 4,812 million for the year ended February 28, 2005.

Revenues from the provision of bus services for local public transportation authorities increased by SEK 30 million, or 1%, from SEK 4,242 million for the year ended February 29, 2004 to SEK 4,272 million for the year ended February 28, 2005.

The increase in revenue is principally due to our winning of new contracts, which provided an increase of SEK 411 million which was offset by the impact from lost contracts of SEK 410 million and a strike in Finland in November that caused a loss of revenues of SEK 13 million. In the fiscal year 2004 we had a retroactive compensation from the Stockholm CPTA in May 2003 of SEK 28 million as a result of a law requiring more frequent breaks for drivers, which had a positive impact on the year ended February 29, 2004. Our revenue from existing contracts also increased by SEK 70 million due to increased volume and higher prices.

Revenues from express bus services increased by SEK 10 million, or 3%, from SEK 327 million for the year ended February 29, 2004 to SEK 337 million for the year ended February 28, 2005. This increase is largely due to a higher yield from passenger tickets of SEK 5 million, an increase in passenger traffic of SEK 2 million and an increase in prices of SEK 3 million.

Revenues from coach hire services increased by SEK 7 million, or 6%, from SEK 110 million for the year ended February 29, 2004 to SEK 117 million for the year ended February 28, 2005. The revenue increase is mainly due to the acquisition of the companies FO-resor and Marstrand Hermansby Buss of total 9 million.

Other revenue increased by SEK 4 million from SEK 82 million for the year ended February 29, 2004, to SEK 86 million for the year ended February 28, 2005. Other revenue largely consist of sales of diesel fuel, and maintenance and repair services to third parties.

Gain on Sale of Fixed Assets

Gain on sale of fixed assets is comprised of sales of buses and other assets. Gain on sale of fixed assets was SEK 4 million for the year ended February 28, 2005 compared to SEK 5 million for the year ended February 29, 2004.

Operating Costs

Operating costs consist primarily of personnel costs (which includes wages, salaries, social security fees and pension costs of bus drivers, mechanics and other employees), fuel, tires and other consumables costs, and other external costs, which include depot costs and head office administrative costs. Operating costs also include operating lease charges. Operating costs increased by SEK 190 million, or 4%, from SEK 4,557 million for the year ended February 29, 2004 to SEK 4,747 million for the year ended February 28, 2005. This increase is due to a number of factors, which are explained below.

Fuel, tires and other consumable costs have increased by SEK 60 million or 6% to SEK 989 million for the year ended February 28, 2005 from SEK 929 million for the year ended February 29, 2004. The increase is largely due to a high diesel price during the second and third quarter resulting in increased fuel costs of SEK 50 million, offset by reduced volume

~~TRANCHE~~causing a Areduced cost of SEK 17 million. The increase is also due to higher maintenance costs of total SEK 22 million. The remaining increase is due to increased costs of washing and cleaning by SEK 5 million.

Principal Amount:		EUR 45 million (inclusive of amounts required to refinance Tranche C as provided herein).
Borrower:		Bus.
Purpose:		Funds borrowed under Tranche A shall be applied in accordance with the agreed costs schedule (the “Agreed Costs Schedule”) produced by Alvarez and Marsal Europe Limited as financial advisers to Nordic and agreed by Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin (UK) Limited as financial advisers to the Lenders and the structure paper (the “Structure Paper”) agreed between the Borrowers and the Lenders.
Availability and Drawdown:		From the date (the “Closing Date”) on which the Restructuring closes to the date which is 10 business days following the Closing Date. Tranche A must be drawn in a single drawing.
Security:		A pledge by Bus over its entire shareholding in Holding in favour of the Security Agent. A first ranking pledge by Bus of its rights under the Subordinated Loan Agreement dated 28 February 2002, as replaced by the agreement signed on 22 December 2003 and as amended from time to time (the “Subordinated Shareholder Loan”). A first ranking pledge by Bus of its rights under the EUR 11.8 million capital contributions due from Nordic (the “Group Capital Contribution”).
Ranking:		Tranche A borrowings shall rank as senior secured debt of Bus and benefit from the pledges set out in Security above.
Interest Rate:		Tranche A shall bear interest at an annual rate equal to the sum of (i) 6-month EURIBOR plus 650bps (the “Cash Interest”) and (ii) 650bps (the “Compounded Interest”). Cash Interest and Compounded Interest shall be calculated on a 360-day basis and shall be paid or credited, respectively, semi-annually in arrears on each 15 June and 15 December (each an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing 15 December 2005. Compounded Interest shall accrue and, on each Interest Payment Date, be added to the then accreted principal amount. If Bus shall not have available to it funds sufficient to pay when due the Cash Interest component in cash, such Cash Interest component shall on such Interest Payment Date be added to the then accreted principal amount and shall bear interest as if it were principal unless and until such unpaid interest is duly paid in cash, which it may be, without any penalty, at any time during the succeeding interest payment period.
Optional Redemption:		During a one year period following the initial draw – Non-callable.

Personnel costs decreased by SEK 5 million or 0.2% to SEK 2,606 million for the year ended February 28, 2005 compared to SEK 2,611 million for the year ended February 29, 2004. The decrease mainly resulted from a reduction of drivers due to lost contracts and productivity improvements of SEK 108 million and a reduction of pension costs due to lower pension premiums of SEK 22 million. This was offset by an effective increase in salary of SEK 83 million and social charges of SEK 35 million. Added to this, the proposed restructuring of Concordia Bus resulted in a provision for personnel costs of SEK 7 million.

Operating lease charges increased by SEK 40 million, or 10%, from SEK 388 million for the year ended February 29, 2004 to SEK 428 for the year ended February 28, 2005. This increase was principally a result of our increased use of operating leases for buses. The total number of buses under operating leases was 1,470 as of February 28, 2005, compared to 1,317 as of February 29, 2004.

Other external costs increased by SEK 95 million to SEK 724 million for the year ended February 28, 2005 from SEK 629 million for the year ended February 29, 2004. This was mainly due to costs related to the restructuring of Concordia Bus which accounted for other external costs of SEK 133 million. The costs connected to the proposed restructuring of Concordia Bus contain provision for claim on CPTA of SEK 73 million, bad debt provision of receivable due from parent and management company of SEK 33 million and professional fees of SEK 27 million. We also had increased damage and other operational costs of SEK 18 million. This was offset by utilization of provisions for loss making contracts which was lower by SEK 59 million for the year ended February 28, 2005.

Depreciation, amortization and write-downs

Depreciation and amortization charges comprise principally the depreciation of buses and other vehicles but also relate to the depreciation of tools, fixtures and fittings, buildings and computer equipment. In addition, amortization of goodwill resulting from acquisitions of bus operations is also included. Depreciation and amortization costs increased by SEK 17 million, or 5%, from SEK 364 million for the year ended February 29, 2004 to SEK 381 million for the year ended February 28, 2005 principally as a result of the write-down of buses in the year-end of SEK 42 million, offset by a shift from owned buses to a larger number of leased buses. Total goodwill amortization remained constant at SEK 45 million for the year ended February 28, 2005 and for the year ended February 29, 2004.

Operating profit/ loss

Operating loss was SEK 312 million for the year ended February 28, 2005, compared to an operating loss of SEK 155 million for the year ended February 29, 2004.

Operating loss from bus operations for local public transportation authorities was SEK 174 million for the year ended February 28, 2005, compared to an operating loss of SEK 79 million for the year ended February 29, 2004, mainly due to higher fuel costs, increased operating lease charges and costs in connection with the restructuring of Concordia Bus.

Operating profit from express bus services decreased by SEK 2 million to SEK 29 million for the year ended February 28, 2005 compared to SEK 34 million for the year ended February 29, 2004.

Operating profit from coach hire services was SEK 4 million for the year ended February 28, 2005, compared to an operating profit of SEK 3 million for the year ended February 29, 2004.

Head office costs and other items increased from SEK 68 million for the year ended February 29, 2004, to SEK 126 million for the year ended February 28, 2005, mainly due to costs in connection with the restructuring of Concordia Bus.

Financial Income and Expenses

Financial income and expenses includes interest income from cash and cash equivalents and interest expense from loans made by banks and other financial indebtedness. Financial income and expenses decreased by SEK 58 million from a financial income and expense of SEK 308 million for the year ended February 29, 2004 to SEK 250 million for the year ended February 28, 2005.

This decrease was due to increased foreign exchange gains of SEK 68 million and a write-off of deferred financing costs by SEK 23 million and exit costs for EUR-hedges by SEK 13 million related to senior debt and the refinancing of syndicated

loans with secured senior notes at 9.125% in January 2004. This was offset by higher interest costs of SEK 41 million and other financial charges of SEK 5 million.

Taxes

The standard rate of taxation in Sweden is 28%. Concordia Bus did not pay any taxes for the year ended February 28, 2005. The effective tax rate for the year ended February 28, 2005 was 0%. This effective tax rate resulted from amortization of goodwill (8%) and valuation allowance of net operating losses (20%).

Trend Information

During the year ended February 28, 2005, we have submitted tenders for 1,027 out of the 1,442 buses that were open for competitive tenders, which included contracts for routes where we already operated 421 buses. We have retained 78 buses out of the 421 buses we operated and won 143 from our competitors.

We anticipate tenders for approximately 2,043 buses during the financial year ending February 28, 2006. Of those 2,043 buses, we already operate 369 buses in Sweden, 60 in Norway and 68 in Finland.

We believe that the favorable pricing environment in Sweden in urban city areas and moderate price increases in Finland will continue in the next fiscal year. Pricing development in Norway is still irrational with some contracts being tendered at uneconomical prices.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Concordia believes that its cash flows from operations will not be sufficient for its own debt service requirements and those of its indirect parent Concordia Bus AB as they become due over the next several years. Concordia Bus AB failed to make its most recent interest payment due on its €160,000,000 11% Senior Subordinated Notes due February 15, 2010 (the “Parent Notes”).

On July 22, 2005, Concordia Bus AB and Concordia Bus Nordic AB (publ) announced that they, an ad hoc committee representing at least 75% of the holders of the Parent Notes, an informal group of holders of a majority of Concordia Bus Nordic AB (publ)’s 9.125% Senior Secured Notes and the Company’s principal ultimate shareholders entered into a restructuring agreement (the “Restructuring Agreement”) detailing the restructuring (the “Restructuring”) of Concordia Bus AB. Under the proposed Restructuring, Concordia Bus AB will make an application for reorganization proceedings in the District Court in Stockholm, Sweden. Those proceedings are expected to result in the face amount of all the Parent Notes being reduced from 100% to 25% and holders of Parent Notes who consent to the Restructuring will then be required, pursuant to the Restructuring Agreement, to exchange their reduced debt securities (including all principal, all accrued and unpaid interest and any other amounts due thereon) for ordinary shares of Concordia Bus AB, which will constitute 97.5% of the issued ordinary share capital of Concordia Bus AB immediately following the consummation of the proposed Restructuring (subject to the terms of a management incentive plan).

In connection with the proposed Restructuring, the wholly owned subsidiary Concordia Bus Nordic Holding AB (“Nordic Holding”) has borrowed €25,000,000 (the “Bridge Facility”) which will (a) provide liquidity to the Concordia group, (b) cover some of the costs of the proposed Restructuring and (c) repay an outstanding loan to Concordia Bus Nordic AB (publ) of approximately €4,800,000. In turn, Concordia Bus Nordic AB (publ) will transfer its subordinated shareholder loan from Concordia Bus AB to Nordic Holding so that payments made under that loan will now be made to Nordic Holding, which Nordic Holding may use to service its obligations on the Bridge Facility.

If and when the proposed Restructuring is consummated, and the reduced debt securities of consenting holders of Parent Notes are exchanged for ordinary shares in Concordia Bus AB, Concordia Bus AB will borrow €45,000,000, of which an amount equal to the amount borrowed under the Bridge Facility will be used to refinance and pay the costs of the Bridge Facility, approximately €5,000,000 will be retained to pay Concordia Bus AB’s expenses and the remainder will be indirectly contributed to Concordia Bus Nordic AB (publ) as equity.

Absent a restructuring, Concordia may not be able to continue as a going concern.

Nordic’s liquidity requirements arise primarily from its need to fund lease payments, purchase buses, service its own debt obligations and those of its indirect parent Concordia Bus AB, fund its working capital requirements and expand its business. In order for Concordia Bus AB to meet its interest payment obligations under the Parent Notes Nordic must distribute €17.6 million per annum to Concordia Bus AB. As noted above, Concordia Bus AB failed to make its most recent interest payment (due February 15, 2005) on the Parent Notes. As of February 28, 2005 Nordic’s net debt obligations

~~TRANCHE~~to CConcordia Bus AB amounted to SEK 292 million. Nordic’s own debt obligations are mostly comprised of its obligations in connection with the Notes. As of February 28, 2005 Nordic had total net indebtedness of SEK 1,021 million after deducting its cash balance of SEK 175 million. Nordic’s interest expense for the three months ended February 28, 2005 was SEK 29 million

Principal Amount:		EUR 25 million.
Borrower:		Holding.
Purpose:		Funds borrowed under Tranche C shall be applied in accordance with the Agreed Costs Schedule and the Structure Paper.
Availability and Drawdown:		From the date of the Mezzanine Facility Agreement to and including the earlier of the Closing Date and 31 December 2005.
Security:		A first ranking pledge by Holding of its rights under the Subordinated Shareholder Loan. A first ranking pledge by Holding over the bank account to which all moneys in respect of the Subordinated Shareholder Loan and the Group Capital Contribution are to be paid. A first ranking pledge by Holding of its rights under the Group Capital Contribution.
Ranking:		Tranche C shall rank as senior secured debt of Holding and shall benefit from the security outlined above.
Interest Rate:		Tranche C shall bear interest at an annual rate equal to the sum of (i) 6-month EURIBOR plus 650bps (the “Cash Interest”) and (ii) 650bps (the “Compounded Interest”). Cash Interest and Compounded Interest shall be calculated on a 360-day basis and shall be paid or credited, respectively, semi-annually in arrears on each 15 June and 15 December (each an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing 15 December 2005. Compounded Interest shall accrue and, on each Interest Payment Date, be added to the then accreted principal amount. If Holding shall not have available to it funds sufficient to pay when due the Cash Interest component in cash, such Cash Interest component shall on such Interest Payment Date be added to the then accreted principal amount and shall bear interest as if it were principal unless and until such unpaid interest is duly paid in cash, which it may be, without any penalty, during the succeeding interest payment period.
Mandatory Prepayment:		On the date that Tranche A is first drawn, Holding shall prepay Tranche C in full, plus all accrued but unpaid Cash Interest and Compound Interest thereon.
Mandatory Redemption:		Change of control (for these purposes, defined as the acquisition by a single person or group, other than a Permitted Holder (defined as each Consenting Noteholder which signs the Binding Restructuring Agreement and receives Restructuring Shares) of 35% or more of Bus’, Holding’s or Nordic’s voting shares, pursuant to a bona fide transaction at arm’s length, and the ownership by such person or group

Absent a restructuring, Nordic does not expect to be able to (i) service its own obligations under the Notes, (ii) distribute sufficient funds to Concordia Bus AB to enable it to service its obligations under the Parent Notes and (iii) meet its working capital needs.

Furthermore, as Nordic is a holding company, its principal asset is its investment in its subsidiaries. It conducts no business or operations except through direct and indirect subsidiaries. The ability of Nordic’s subsidiaries to make funds available to it is subject to, among other things, applicable corporate and other laws and restrictions contained in agreements to which such subsidiaries may be subject. It is also subject to Nordic’s subsidiaries’ ability to generate cash in the future and their ability to generate distributable reserves or other funds available for that purpose. Even if a restructuring is achieved, Nordic’s substantial indebtedness, together with the restrictions imposed on it by the indenture for the Notes due 2009, could also affect its ability to make additional borrowings, dividend payments or investments and this could impair its liquidity or increase its need for additional capital.

Nordic’s change in working capital was negative SEK 19 million for the year ended February 28, 2005 compared to negative SEK 105 million for the year ended February 29, 2004.

Concordia has entered into interest and foreign exchange hedging arrangements in accordance with the terms of its debt obligations. See the sub-heading “Foreign Exchange” in the section ”Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk.”

We have hedges in place for 50% of the interest payable on the senior subordinated notes during the financial year ending February 28, 2006. In addition we have applied our hedges for SEK interest rates towards exposure on the operating lease debt. We estimate that approximately 6% of the operating lease exposure is covered by our interest caps and swaps.

Net cash flows used in operating activities was negative SEK 98 million for the for the year ended February 28, 2005, compared to positive cash flow from operating activities of SEK 7 million for the year ended February 29, 2004. The difference was mainly due to higher fuel prices in operations of SEK 33 million, payment of SEK 15 million in fees for the proposed restructuring of Concordia Bus in the last quarter and payment of fees of SEK 12 million in connection with the refinancing of Concordia Bus Nordic in March, 2004. We also had a retroactive compensation from the Stockholm CPTA in May 2003 of SEK 28 million as a result of a law requiring more frequent breaks for drivers, which had a positive impact on the year ended February 29, 2004.

Cash flows used ininvesting activities was SEK 63 million for the for the year ended February 28, 2005. Investments in tangible fixed assets were SEK 112 million for the for the year ended February 28, 2005, compared to SEK 32 million for the for the year ended February 29, 2004. Of the total capital expenditure, SEK 29 million relates to the purchase of used buses for a new tender in Hedmark, which started in April 2004, SEK 23 million relates to the purchase of used buses for the Skaraborg region, and SEK 13 million for buses we have purchased and sold during the year. SEK 11 million was attributable to the purchase of buses within FO Resor, which was acquired for our coach hire services. The remaining capital expenditure was for purchase of equipment in Sweden and Norway.

During the period we have sold buses worth of SEK 44 million, of which SEK 13 million were purchased and sold during the same year. We have also sold apartments in Finland worth of SEK 10 million.

Concordia has entered into operating lease agreements to finance a portion of its bus fleet. As of February 28, 2005, 1,470 of its 3,730 buses were financed through operating lease arrangements. The net present value of outstanding obligations for buses as of February 28, 2005, was SEK 829 million (the net present value of Concordia’s outstanding obligations under leases relating to real estate as of February 28, 2005, was SEK 46 million).

The large majority of lease terms for buses include residual value guarantees from the bus manufacturer, whereby Nordic retains an option to return the buses to the manufacturer without cost to itself. The number of buses that can be returned under these agreements is subject to limitation.

The leasing fee for a new lease contract is established at its inception based on the purchase price paid by the lessor and the residual value agreed with the manufacturer for the period of the lease. At the end of each leasing contract period each leasing contract can be renewed or terminated. The lease payments for the second leasing period are always based on the fair value at the date of the extension and are therefore lower than the payments during the initial term. If Nordic succeeds

in renewing or extending a local public transportation authority contract, the leasing contract can be renewed based on the fair value at the date of the extension. This is likely to result in lease payments that are substantially lower than the payments during the initial term.

In a situation where Concordia is not able to pay outstanding lease fees, the lessor has the right to retain the buses at Concordia’s expense and also obtain additional compensation based on the outstanding leasing fees at the time when the non-payment situation occurred. Further, in the event of an acceleration under the Notes following an event of default, all or part of the leasing contracts covering a significant portion of Concordia’s leases may be terminated at the option of the lessor. This would have a material adverse effect on Concordia’s business.

The Third Party Tender Offer is scheduled to expire on 24 August 2005 and is conditional upon the successful completion of the Consent Solicitation referred to below. Senior Group Members have agreed, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Restructuring Agreement, to tender all their Senior Notes in the Third Party Tender Offer. Nordic recommends acceptance of the Third Party Tender Offer. As consideration for conducting the Third Party Tender Offer, Nordic will pay the Offerors a fee of 3% of the aggregate cash amount spent to acquire Senior Notes tendered into the Third Party Tender Offer. Nordic will make the regularly scheduled interest payment on 1 August 2005.

Simultaneously with the Third Party Tender Offer, Nordic is commencing a revised consent solicitation, amending and restating its pending consent solicitation (the “Consent Solicitation”), seeking, in exchange for a consent fee of €40 for each €1,000 principal amount of Senior Notes, (a) consents to certain amendments to the indenture (the “Indenture”) governing the Senior Notes and (b) an undertaking by holders of Senior Notes who deliver their consents not to participate in the change of control offer that will be made after the successful consummation of the Restructuring• Inflation. The proposed amendments will not take effect unless and until both the consent fee and the tender offer payments have been made. Senior Group Members and members of the Subordinated Ad Hoc Committee who hold Senior Notes have agreed, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Restructuring Agreement, to deliver their consents to Nordic pursuant to the terms of the Consent Solicitation. The proposed amendments to the Indenture will not be made unless a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes outstanding give their consent. The consents to be provided by the Senior Group Members will be sufficient to permit the amendments to the Indenture that are being requested in the Consent Solicitation. The Consent Solicitation is to be completed on the same day as the Third Party Tender Offer (24 August 2005).

~~One~~We are ~~Canada~~also ~~Square~~exposed to currency fluctuations on loans, primarily as a result of having to make interest payments in Euro on our senior note loans. We have entered into collar arrangements through the sale of puts and the purchase of calls with the same settlement dates. While this arrangement caps the amount of benefit we can obtain from an appreciation of the Swedish Kronor against the Euro, it also caps our potential increased interest costs through a depreciation of the Swedish Kronor against the Euro. Our policy is to hedge 50% of the exposure on our two coming interest payments on the senior notes against adverse movements for us in the Swedish Kronor/Euro exchange rate. See the subheading “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in the section ”Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” We estimate that a 10% depreciation in the value of the Swedish Kronor against the Euro would increase our interest costs by approximately SEK 26.7 million per annum.

Diesel fuel is priced in the international commodity markets in US dollars. We purchase our diesel fuel requirements out of our operating revenue, which is largely denominated in Swedish Kronor. Therefore, we are exposed to currency fluctuation risk between the dollars and the Swedish Kronor. We currently have no hedges in place. We estimate that a 10% depreciation in the value of the Swedish Kronor against the dollar would increase our diesel fuel costs by approximately SEK 9 million per annum.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

(All amounts in millions of SEK unless otherwise stated)

Organization

Concordia Bus AB, together with its subsidiaries (“Concordia”), is a Swedish registered limited liability company, wholly owned by Concordia Bus Holding AB (reg no 556574-8240) with its registered office in Stockholm, Sweden. The ultimate parent company of the group is Concordia Bus BV, a company domiciled in the Netherlands.

The operations of Concordia consist of providing regular bus services under contract through its indirect subsidiary Concordia Bus Nordic AB, to transit authorities in Sweden, Norway and Finland. In addition to contracted services, Concordia also supplies extensive express bus services over major portions of Sweden, as well as charter and tour bus services, mainly in Gothenburg and Stockholm.

Accounting principles

The same accounting policies and methods of computation are followed for the year ended February 28, 2005 consolidated financial statements as compared with the most recent annual financial statements except that the Company as of March 1, 2004 has adopted the Swedish Accounting Standards Council’s recommendation RR29 – Employee benefits. In accordance with Swedish GAAP, the adoption of RR29 should be accounted for as a change in accounting principles meaning that the cumulative impact of adopting this new recommendation relating to periods prior to March 1, 2003 are adjusted at the date of the opening balance sheet. The impact of the change is as follows:

			Change in		Change in
	Previously		accounting		accounting		Restated
	reported		policy		policy		amounts
					(tax effect)

Pension provision as of March 1, 2004	60		(7	)	—		53
Deferred tax liability as of March 1, 2004	—		—		2		2
Shareholder’s equity as of March 1, 2004	(330	)	7		(2	)	(325	)

Going concern

Absent a restructuring, Nordic may not be able to continue as a going concern. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” on page 8 for further details on the proposed restructuring.

These financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the proposed restructuring will be consummated and, consequently, they have been prepared assuming that Nordic will continue as a going concern.

Concordia has approximately SEK 2,636 million of long-term debt due to third parties, including long-term finance lease obligations. Concordia’s ability to service the existing debt, including amortization and interest, is dependent on the underlying businesses generating sufficient cash flow and distributable earnings. Furthermore the ability of Concordia Bus AB to service its existing debt, or the debt it may acquire in connection with the proposed restructuring, is dependent on the ability to transfer profit from Nordic through its direct parent Concordia Bus Nordic Holding AB to Concordia Bus AB. The non-restricted equity in the underlying companies, available for dividends, has been reduced during the year due to losses, which furthermore limits Concordia’s possibilities to receive dividends from subsidiaries.

The group profit and loss statement for February 28, 2005 shows that earnings generated by the underlying businesses during the period March 1, 2004 - February 28, 2005 have not been sufficient to cover Concordia’s costs.

Note 5. Fair value of financial instruments

Fuel hedge contracts

The Concordia Bus Group is exposed to commodity price risk through its fuel usage. Management actively tries to minimize the negative effects of fluctuations in the market price. However during the quarter ended February 28, 2005, none of Concordia’s fuel usage was hedged through diesel swaps.

Interest/currency hedges

Concordia’s lease debt is on a floating rate. Management has made a decision to actively try to minimize the risk of interest rate fluctuations by entering into interest rate swaps and interest rate caps, which gives Concordia a larger portion of fixed interest rate arrangements.

The Company is also exposed to currency fluctuations, primarily as an effect of loans denominated in foreign currencies. Management has made a conscious decision to try to minimize the impact of currency fluctuations on cash payments related to foreign currencies and has therefore entered into currency collar arrangements. As of February 28, 2005, 50% of the interest payments on the senior notes of €160 million were hedged for the coming 18 months. The coming interest payments for the €130 million on the senior secured notes are not hedged.
