was changed.

has waived its claims against Lindgren.

way of a solution for Facebook advertising that Eniro has developed in
collaboration with Adfenix, the Gothenburg-based company that won the Eniro Tech
Challenge in September 2015. Some 3.2 million Swedes use Facebook every day, and
of these, 650,000 visit eniro.se. Information from visits to eniro.se,
geographic locations and product/service searches, etc. are matched with
Facebook, which can then display relevant ads in the users’ news flows when they
log in via a computer or mobile device.
  · During the fourth quarter, 33 convertibles were converted to shares.

Events after the end of the reporting period

  · The Swedish Market Court delivered a judgment stating that, as of June 30,
2016, consumers must be given the opportunity to receive price information in
connection with calls and SMS text messages to the directory service 118 118.
The outcome is in line with what Eniro had expected, and the company will now
look at technical solutions for handling this. The ruling is expected to have a
limited earnings impact.
