Excerpts from the nine month report:

Comment by the CEO:

Following our successful listing on Nasdaq First North Stockholm, our
investments increased in the third quarter of 2014 and we have entered new
markets. Since the start of the year, we have invested more than EUR 15 million.
Entering the fourth quarter, our pipeline of future investments remains strong.

During the third quarter, we have capitalised on the origination efforts we made
in the spring. We are pursuing our strategy of geographical diversification by
making significant investments outside our traditional core-markets of Russia
and Romania. During the first nine months of 2014, we have entered two new
markets, Poland and Slovenia, and re-entered the Czech Republic. We expect these
investments to start generating cash flow during the fourth quarter 2014.

As a result of DDM entering new markets, the composition of our portfolio has
changed during the year. Romania remains our largest and most important market,
although its share of the total portfolio decreased to 41 percent at the end
September 2014 from 58% at the start of the year.

During the quarter, we welcomed Fredrik Olsson as our new CFO and a strong
addition to our management team. We have also strengthened our operations team
by recruiting a new Head of Collections. These two additions to our management
team have put us in a position to further increase our level of investments.

We continue to make significant steps towards being fully compliant with the
Nasdaq Stockholm exchange rules in preparation for listing on the main market.

Consequently, as we have previously communicated, we are in the process of
converting from Swiss GAAP to IFRS. As a step in this process, DDM has applied
voluntary amendments to its accounting policy during 2014.

We continue to see attractive opportunities across the Eastern European region.
Our long-standing relations with international financial institutions, active in
Eastern Europe, has earned DDM status as a credible acquirer of assets. This, in
combination with our proprietary IT system, for analysis and management of
assets, and focus on solving the individual’s debt situation, are factors in our
continued success
