Kongsberg Automotive ASA Q1 2019 Report and Presentation follow attached.
Q1 2019 Highlights:
· In spite of a generally declining market, revenues grew by MEUR 18 (6.3%)
YoY to MEUR 307 including positive FX effects of MEUR 5.
· We had another strong booking quarter as we won new business worth MEUR 65
in annual revenues which corresponds to MEUR 339 in expected lifetime revenues.
· Adj. EBIT improved YoY by more than 6% with margins slightly up, which
represents a YoY increase by MEUR 1 to MEUR 22.
· However, the fall through of the additional revenues was limited due to:
· Increased costs of raw materials and custom duties in Q1 2019 with a YoY
effect of negative MEUR 3.
· Unfavorable product mix effects as well as segment and market mix effects
· An unexpected Mexican labor cost increase of MEUR 1.
· Positive FX effects of 1 MEUR
· We had YoY 80% lower restructuring costs which improved our EBIT
significantly
· Free cash flow was negative MEUR 29 primarily driven by working capital
increase primarily due to seasonality which should largely be reversed in Q2.
· Cash on hand at the end of Q1 2019 of MEUR 32.
· On a non IFRS adjusted basis, the LTM adjusted gearing ratio (NIBD/Adj.
EBITDA) improved from 2.4X in Q1 2018 to 2.2X in Q1 2019. After the IFRS 16
adjustments, our gearing ratio is 3.0X.
