The report is available on the company's website: www.sdiptech.se

SDIPTECH DELIVERS A STRONG FIRST HALF YEAR

SECOND QUARTER 2021

  • Operating profit EBITA* increased by 46.1% to SEK 120.7 million (82.6), corresponding to an EBITA*margin of 18.1% (17.1). Organic EBITA* growth for the Group was -7.8%, excluding currency effects. Sdiptech had an extra high profitability during Q2 2020 due to cost reductions and governmental grants.

  • Net sales increased by 37.6% to SEK 665.3 million (483.4). In total for the Group, organic sales growth was 15.7%, excluding currency effects. The net sales during Q2 2020 was highly affected by the pandemic.

  • Profit after acquisition costs, including profit from divestments but before financial items (EBIT) increased by 13.5% and amounted to SEK 88.5 million (78.0). Capital loss from divestments amounted to SEK 20 million.

  • Earnings after tax for the Group amounted to SEK 58.7 million (38.3), of which SEK 59.7 million (36.9) was attributable to the Parent Company’s shareholders.

  • Cash flow from current operations amounted to SEK 27.1 million (163.6), corresponding to a cash conversion of 26% (180). Increased accounts receivable due to good sales and a preventive inventory build-up to meet any component shortages affected the cash flow negatively.

  • Earnings per ordinary share (average number), less minority interests and dividends on preference shares amounted to SEK 1.59 (1.07). After dilution, earnings per shares amounted to SEK 1.57 Kr (1.07).
  • Divestments of the Swedish and Austrian elevator business was completed during the period with an accounted loss of SEK 20 million mainly due to release of goodwill for future profits.

  • On June 4, Sdiptech acquired all shares in Ficon Oy.

  • Sdiptech's shares were introduced on Nasdaq Stockholm, Large Cap, 11 June.

FIRST SIX MONTHS 2021

  • Operating profit EBITA* increased by 54.1% to SEK 236.6 million (153.5), corresponding to an EBITA* margin of 17.9% (15.9). Organic EBITA* growth for the Group was 1.3%, excluding currency effects.

  • Net sales increased by 36.8% to SEK 1,323.6 million (967.8). In total for the Group, organic sales growth was 12.7%, excluding currency effects.

  • Profit after acquisition costs before financial items (EBIT) increased by 22.1% and amounted to SEK 179.2 million (146.8). Acquisition costs for the period were particularly high due to strategic divestments and a larger acquisition in the UK and stamp duty in connection therewith. In addition, capital loss related to divestments amounted SEK 20 million.

  • Earnings after tax for the Group amounted to SEK 122.9 million (90.2), of which SEK 122.4 million (88.9) was attributable to the Parent Company’s shareholders.

  • Cash flow from current operations amounted to SEK 66.5 million (222.0), corresponding to a cash conversion of 36% (129). Due to high profits and postponements of tax in 2020, more tax was paid than normal during the period. In addition, an increased amount of accounts receivables due to good sales and inventory was built to prevent material shortage.

  • Earnings per ordinary share (average number), less minority interests and dividends on preference shares amounted to SEK 3.32 (2.67). After dilution, earnings per shares amounted to SEK 3.29 Kr (2.65).

  • During the period January to June, Sdiptech acquired Rolec Services Ltd, One Stop Europe (Rolec) and Ficon Oy.

  • During the first six months, divestments of Tello Service Partner as well as the Swedish and Austrian elevator businesses were completed. All units belonged to the Property Technical Services segment.

  • On March 9, Sdiptech carried out a directed share issue that contributed approximately SEK 464 million to equity after issuance costs.

COMMENTS BY THE CEO

SDIPTECH DELIVERS A STRONG FIRST HALF YEAR

Sdiptech's overall goal is to increase profits through both organic growth and acquisitions. On average, we have had an annual profit growth rate of 36.1 percent since 2016. During the first half of the year, we increased the pace and EBITA* rose by a total of 54.1 percent. The multi-year trend of increased profitability continues and our EBITA* margin rose during the first half of the year by two percentage points, from 15.9 to 17.9 percent.

THE QUARTER
We can proudly present another good quarter for Sdiptech. During the three-month period, our business units delivered with full capacity and strong demand, corresponding to sales growth of 37.6 percent, of which 15.7 percent was organically excluding currency effects. The comparative figures from last year were however characterized by a period when the pandemic hit Sdiptech the hardest, mainly in the form of delayed projects. In accordance with what was communicated at the time, Sdiptech showed a delivery against planned orders of 85–95 percent.

While the comparative figures for sales were temporarily weakened during the second quarter of 2020, we had an extra good profitability as a result of cost reductions and subsidies received. This resulted in high comparative figures for the Group's profit development, which in turn led to a negative organic EBITA* growth of -7.8 percent in the quarter. Profitable acquisitions have, however, contributed to the EBITA* profit increasing by a total of 46.1 percent and to a continued margin strengthening corresponding to an EBITA* margin of 18.1 (17.1) percent for the second quarter. We maintain our margin guidance of 19–20 percent for the full year 2021.

We have not experienced any significant disruptions from the pandemic, Brexit or strains in supply chains during Q2. We are constantly working to review these risks and in particular the work with preventive stockpiling of critical components and materials. In addition, and as a result of strong sales, we have increased the amount of accounts receivable, and after high profits and deferred tax in 2020, we have paid more tax than normal. All this has had an effect on our otherwise strong cash generation.

During the quarter, our business activity at Group level was high in connection with preparations for the change of list, from First North to Nasdaq Stockholm's main market. It was a logical step that consolidates the Group's high quality, and we have already been able to see proofs that is has strengthened Sdiptech's awareness internationally.

We have also had the pleasure of launching four long-term sustainability goals. Our greatest opportunity to contribute to increased social and climate sustainability is through our business units' products and services - this has been the core of our business for several years. However, we work just as hard to develop and help our existing companies make even more long-term sustainable decisions. We have already identified efficiency opportunities that will reduce our climate footprint.

ACQUISITIONS
At the beginning of June, Finnish Ficon Oy, an additional acquisition to Hilltip Oy, was acquired. In the Finnish market, Ficon is a leading player in the manufacture of snow and ice clearing equipment adapted for smaller vehicles. In addition to increased traffic safety on smaller roads and resource efficiency where larger vehicles are not needed or can operate, Ficon facilitates for small-scale companies.

During the second quarter, our Swedish and Austrian elevator operations were divested, which is in line with our ambition to concentrate our growth in the Water & Energy and Special Infrastructure Solutions business areas. Our Croatian business unit Metus is now Sdiptech's remaining elevator business. With a unique service offering to global elevator companies, an in-house developed product and production as well as a local service business, Metus has a strong market position.

As we divested some companies before the earnout periods expired, the total profit effect from all divestments during both the second quarter and the first half of 2021 is SEK -20 million, when the companies submit the consolidated balance sheet and earnout agreements are dissolved with associated booked goodwill. Overall, however, our ownership over the years has been profitable, with a total profit contribution to the Group of SEK 153 million after tax and a return on equity of approximately 21 percent during the years the companies have been part of Sdiptech.

OUTLOOK
We see an unchanged good demand for our products and services, where the need for solutions that contribute to more sustainable, efficient and safe societies is solid. The inventory build-up continues and aims to ensure material supply and customer deliveries. Our purchase prices thus increase, but the vast majority of customers understand the situation and agree to share the cost increases. With that said, the global delivery situation is difficult to assess and some uncertainty about the supply of goods remains ahead of the second half of the year.

Regarding acquisitions, we have this year broadened our geographical search to more countries and we have a strong and exciting pipeline. Restrictions on travel and physical meetings have slightly extended our acquisition processes, but in connection with these restrictions being eased, we can intensify our acquisition dialogues. We look forward to being able to welcome new great companies during the second half of 2021.
