Purmo Group Plc
Half-year financial report January-June 2023



Purmo Group reiterates its financial guidance for 2023. Adjusted EBITDA in 2023 is expected to be on a similar level to 2022 (EUR 92.9 million). Similar means being within +/- 5 per cent of the previous year.
Strong margin management demonstrates the strength of the underlying business of Purmo Group. Combined with the Accelerate PG programme being ahead of plan, it provides confidence in the outlook for the rest of the year. Purmo Group reiterates the previously communicated targets for the Accelerate PG programme – targeted adjusted EBITDA run-rate improvements of EUR 20 million by the end of 2023 and cumulatively EUR 40 million by the end of 2024.
The visibility for 2023 is limited due to macroeconomic uncertainties, and the market environment continues to be challenging in Purmo Group's addressable markets. Furthermore, the guidance also factors in that Purmo Group is building up capabilities to facilitate future growth. This has an impact on the company's cost base, and hence the net savings from the Accelerate PG programme.

¹ Purmo Group presents certain measures of financial performance, financial position and cash flows, which are alternative performance measures in accordance with the guidance issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority ("ESMA"). For the detailed definitions and reconciliation of alternative performance measures see page 41 in the January-June 2023 half-year financial report.
² Change in net working capital includes assets held for sale. The 2022 comparison figure has been restated by EUR 7.9 million impairment charges related to the business in Russia.
³ Comparative figures have been restated due to change in calculation of the key figure, see page 42 in the January-June 2023 half-year financial report.

In the second quarter of the year, we saw a market environment with low volumes and continuing weakness in both business divisions. Stock levels have normalised in the distribution channels, but we do not yet see restocking activities. Strong pricing and cost management actions, as well as our competitive position, supported us in improving margins in both divisions. Furthermore, raw material costs developed favourably during the quarter.
The Accelerate PG programme continued to deliver ahead of plan, which mitigated the impact of weak demand. The programme, which focuses on improving net sales growth, profitability, and net working capital efficiency, will support our financial development in 2023 and beyond.
Net sales for the Group declined by 26 per cent to EUR 180.3 million, and adjusted EBITDA fell to EUR 21.2 million; a decline of 24 per cent. Adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 11.8 per cent (11.4 per cent in the previous year).
During the quarter, the Climate Products & Systems division faced a decline in volumes due to weakness in the European new construction and renovation markets. Nonetheless, the adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 12.0 per cent (against 11.1 per cent in the previous year) thanks to successful margin management. Net sales in the Climate Solutions division declined, primarily driven by further normalisation of trading conditions in the Italian market. The adjusted EBITDA margin was on a solid level at 18.4 per cent (16.4 per cent in the previous year) despite tough market conditions. Green transition, including energy efficiency, is expected to strongly support Purmo Group's business in the long-term.
Our Accelerate PG programme is delivering improvements ahead of plan. Implemented adjusted EBITDA run-rate improvements of the programme amounted to EUR 16.5 million at the end of the second quarter. Realised actions include pricing optimisation, overhead-cost reductions, purchasing savings and increased net working capital efficiency. We are confident that we will reach our targeted adjusted EBITDA run-rate improvements of EUR 20 million for the full year 2023 and EUR 40 million by the end of 2024.
As a part of the programme and in response to overcapacity in the panel radiator market, we have entered into consultation with employee representatives regarding our intention to discontinue the production of panel radiators at our plant in Zonhoven, Belgium.
We brought two new product innovations to market. Electrical emitters are becoming increasingly important, and as a result, we have launched the new Yali Plus radiator range. The Yali products will include the upgraded controls system Unisenza Plus with its integrated mobile application offering ease of use and additional functionality. In addition, we have upgraded materials in our PE-Xc pipe range allowing faster and more flexible installation for our customers.
On 28 April we signed an agreement to divest all of our Russian operations to IPLS. Completion of the transaction is subject to approval by the relevant regulatory authority in Russia, and it is expected to be received during the third quarter of 2023.
During the second quarter, Accelerate PG programme continued to show solid performance, and we responded strongly to weak demand with efficient margin management. Consequently, we maintain our guidance for the full year 2023: Adjusted EBITDA in 2023 is expected to be on a similar level to 2022 (EUR 92.9 million). Similar means being within +/- 5 per cent of the previous year.

In April–June 2023, Purmo Group's adjusted EBITDA was EUR 21.2 million (27.8); a decrease of 24 per cent. The decline in adjusted EBITDA was driven by low volumes in both divisions during the quarter.
The adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 11.8 (11.4) per cent. The improvement in adjusted EBITDA margin was a result of strong pricing and cost-saving actions within the Group.
Comparability adjustments amounted to EUR -4.2 million (-3.6). The adjustments were mainly related to costs associated with the Accelerate PG programme.
Profit for the review period was EUR 2.9 million (8.4) and adjusted profit for the period was EUR 7.1 million (12.0). Earnings per share were EUR 0.04 (0.20) and adjusted earnings per share were EUR 0.14 (0.29).
In January–June 2023, Purmo Group's adjusted EBITDA was EUR 47.7 million (57.0); a decrease of 16 per cent. The decline in adjusted EBITDA for the Group was a result of lower adjusted EBITDA for both divisions.
The adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 12.2 (11.9) per cent.
Comparability adjustments amounted to EUR -7.6 million (-11.1). The adjustments were mainly related to EUR 5.9 million costs associated with Accelerate PG programme and EUR 1.3 million increase in the redemption liability related to Purmo Group's Russian business classified as assets held for sale.
Net financial items amounted to EUR -10.4 million (-5.8).
Profit before tax was EUR 13.7 million (24.2). Income tax expenses were EUR -4.0 million (-9.3) corresponding to an

effective tax rate of 29.6 per cent (38.6). When excluding mostly the non-deductible adjustments to EBITDA, the effective tax rate was 24.3 per cent (25.6).
Profit for the review period was EUR 9.6 million (14.9) and adjusted profit for the period was EUR 17.2 million (25.9). Earnings per share were EUR 0.19 (0.36) and adjusted earnings per share were EUR 0.38 (0.63).


In April-June 2023, cash flow from operating activities was EUR 8.1 million (32.0). The change was mainly due to decrease in profit and negative development in net working capital of EUR -0.3 million (10.6).
In January-June 2023, cash flow from operating activities was EUR 6.8 million (-6.9). The improvement was mainly due to changes in net working capital of EUR -17.6 million compared to previous year (-50.9).
Adjusted operating cash flow for the last 12 months increased by 75 per cent to EUR 67.8 million (38.8) and the cash conversion increased to 81.2 per cent (37.0). The change was a result of a positive development in net working capital of EUR 8.1 million (-48.2), which was offset by an increase in capital expenditure spend in the last 12 months of EUR 23.8 million (18.0), mainly related to strategic projects and factory expansions. The adjusted EBITDA during the last 12 months decreased to EUR 83.5 million (105.0).
Cash flow from investment activities was EUR -7.1 million (-18.7). The change was primarily attributable to the Thermotech acquisition in 2022 of EUR 14.6 million. In the reporting period, the investments in property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets were EUR -7.1 million (-7.3).
Cash flow from financing activities was EUR 40.8 million (-92.4), and was mainly related to the proceeds from the hybrid bond of EUR 60.0 million in February 2023.
At the end of June 2023, the Group's net debt was EUR 230.7 million (31 Dec 2022: 275.2) and the net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio, based on the last 12 month's adjusted EBITDA, was 2.76 (31 Dec 2022: 2.96). The hybrid bond is treated as equity according to IFRS and therefore not included in net debt. The equity ratio was 45.3 per cent (31 Dec 2022: 41.0) and it improved compared to the corresponding period last year due to the hybrid bond. The equity ratio calculation has been updated to be calculated from total equity instead of equity attributable to the owners of the company from the beginning of 2023.
At the end of June 2023, the liquidity position in terms of cash and cash equivalents totalled EUR 97.9 million (31 Dec 2022: 56.3). The company has a Finnish commercial paper programme totalling EUR 100.0 million (31 Dec 2022: 100.0) of which EUR 100.0 million was unutilised (31 Dec 2022: 10.0 outstanding). The company also had an EUR 80.0 million (31 Dec 2022: 80.0) undrawn committed revolving credit facility and EUR 20.5 million (31 Dec 2022: 20.5) of undrawn overdraft facilities with core financial institutions.
Total equity was EUR 470.0 million (31 Dec 2022: 403.3). The increase in total equity was mainly due to the hybrid bond.

Energy efficiency requirements for new and existing buildings are expected to favourably influence demand for Purmo Group's indoor climate comfort solutions. Governments and local authorities are incentivising the shift to renewable energy sources, energy efficiency through low-temperature systems and well-insulated housing, and also introducing of energy performance requirements for new and renovated buildings. The European Union's Green Deal, aiming at making Europe the first carbon neutral continent by 2050 is one example of a generic longerterm initiative, whereas Germany's recent ban on new gas boilers is an example of a specific initiative. Furthermore, as a result of global warming and rising energy prices, consumers show an increasing preference and need for combatting climate change and supporting sustainability. Consumer's preferences are moving towards sustainable solutions and products.
Up to 75% of the buildings in the EU require deep energy renovation (European Commission), implying that the addressable energy renovation market opportunity is significant. Energy renovations in existing dwellings will often include replacement of fossil-fuel based heat sources (e.g. gas boilers) with renewable-energy based heat sources (e.g. heat pumps). Importantly, the growth of heat pumps also drives a shift from high-temperature hydronic systems to low-temperature hydronic systems to enable the energy efficiency of the heat pump installation. This in turn will typically imply that also emitters (such as radiators) will need to be upgraded when combined with heat pump systems, specifically, by becoming larger / more efficient to generate an equal amount of heating / cooling output given the lower water temperature in the system.
Purmo Group is well positioned to support this transition, being a provider of complete heating and cooling solutions including heat pumps, low temperature emitters and smart controls. The company's indoor climate comfort solutions are sold primarily across Europe; mainly to residential buildings, but also to non-residential buildings. Around 50% of Purmo Group's net sales is generated from renovation with the remainder from new construction projects. The secular trend for energy renovations also helps to make the business even less reliant on new build construction markets.
The estimated compound annual growth rate for Purmo Group's solutions varies. As an example, the demand for heat pumps is expected to grow by 23 per cent within the company's addressable markets (2021-2026) (BRG, June 2023). Purmo Group estimates that the solutions market, for which the company provides combined solutions for heating and cooling, is expected to grow by 6 per cent (CAGR) between 2022-2027.
During the second quarter of 2023, construction market activity within Purmo Group's key markets remained weak. Continued high inflation and high interest rates further undermined consumer confidence and led to a lower volumes in renovation and new construction projects.
The demand was low in all regions for Purmo Group; the decline in demand was particularly strong in Eastern Europe. The demand in Italy and Sweden also continued to be pressured by weak market sentiment. Inventory levels among wholesalers in Purmo Group's core markets appear to have normalised, after a period of de-stocking. In Italy, further normalisation of the trading conditions continued compared to the corresponding period last year, when demand was exceptionally high due to government incentives for improving energy efficiency of buildings and homes.
The mid- to long-term market outlook is positive for Purmo Group given the support from secular green transition tailwinds.

The Climate Products & Systems division sells via wholesalers in both residential and non-residential sectors. Its sales regions are Northern, Western, Southern and Eastern Europe, and Rest of the World, including Brazil, China, Japan and the United States. The main product categories within the Division are panel, tubular and electric radiators as well as products for radiant heating and cooling (RHC); including underfloor heating, air heating and cooling, water distributions systems, and system components and controls.

In April–June 2023, net sales for the Climate Products & Systems division decreased by 25 per cent to EUR 144.7 million (192.1). The decline in organic net sales was 23 per cent. Acquisitions did not contribute to the division's net sales. The net impact of changes in currencies was -1 per cent.
Net sales of radiators amounted to EUR 92.0 million (126.2) during the second quarter of the year. Weakness in the renovation and new build markets led to a decline in the organic sales volume in radiators of around 34 per cent during the quarter. The decline was offset by 6 per cent improvement in sales prices in radiators.
During the second quarter of the year, the decline in net sales continued in Eastern Europe. Volumes were also depressed across the division's other regions, whereas in China the deliveries of radiators increased slightly compared to the corresponding period last year.
In January–June 2023, net sales for the Climate Products & Systems division decreased by 19 per cent to EUR 314.0 million (386.6). The decline in organic net sales was 18 per cent. Acquisitions did not contribute to the division's net sales decline. The net impact of changes in currencies was -1 per cent.
Net sales of radiators amounted to EUR 202.8 million (260.7).
In April–June 2023, adjusted EBITDA for the Climate Products & Systems division decreased by 18 per cent to EUR 17.4 million (21.2). The adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 12.0 per cent (11.1).
The increase in adjusted EBITDA margin was a result of successful margin management actions, which offset the effect of the volume decline. The division implemented price increases as well as several initiatives to drive efficiency in production and operations during the quarter, including headcount reductions and optimised sourcing in particular. Profitability was also supported by favourable development in raw material prices.
In January–June 2023, adjusted EBITDA of the Climate Products & Systems division decreased by 9 per cent to EUR 40.0 million (44.1). The adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 12.8 per cent (11.4).

The Climate Solutions division sells directly to installers from the company's Emmeti business in South Europe, its Thermotech business in the Nordic region and its Merriott business in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Climate Solutions provides integrated solutions, which include a comprehensive set of heating and cooling solutions for customers whose goal is to achieve energy savings and reduce the emissions generated by energy consumption.

The decline in net sales was a result of further normalisation in trading conditions in the Italian market compared to the corresponding period last year, when demand was exceptionally high due to government incentives for improving energy efficiency of buildings and homes. Demand also declined in the Nordics, including Sweden and Finland. However, project deliveries of radiators increased slightly in Ireland during the second quarter.
In January–June 2023, net sales for the Climate Solutions division decreased by 17 per cent to EUR 78.3 million (94.7). The decline in organic net sales was 20 per cent. The Thermotech business contributed 4 per cent to the division's net sales growth. The net impact of changes in currencies was -1 per cent.
In April–June 2023, adjusted EBITDA for the Climate Solutions division decreased by 24 per cent to EUR 6.6 million (8.7). Furthermore, the Thermotech business contributed about EUR 0.3 million to the adjusted EBITDA.
The adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 18.4 per cent (16.4). Improvement in adjusted EBITDA margin was a result of strong actions in margin management during the quarter. The division completed several cost-saving actions within the Emmeti and Thermotech businesses and was able to maintain prices at a healthy level in a challenging market environment.
In January–June 2023, adjusted EBITDA for the Climate Solutions division decreased by 25 per cent to EUR 12.8 million (17.1). Furthermore, the Thermotech business contributed about EUR 0.8 million to the adjusted EBITDA. The adjusted EBITDA margin was 16.4 per cent (18.1).
In April–June 2023, capital expenditure, excluding business combinations and leased assets totalled EUR 3.2 million (10.5) and in January–June 2023 EUR 7.1 million (12.9). The investments during the review period were related primarily to strategic projects as well as factory expansions and maintenance. The investments in the comparison periods comprised mainly of factory expansions.
On 28 April 2023, Purmo Group announced that it had signed an agreement to divest all of its Russian operations to IPLS, including all related assets and liabilities. Subsequent to the closing of the transaction, Purmo Group will not have any redemption liabilities in relation to the Russian business. Completion of the transaction is subject to the approval by the relevant regulatory authority in Russia, which is expected to be received during the third quarter of 2023.
Purmo Group has classified its Russian business as assets held for sale, resulting in non-recurring impairments totalling EUR 12.9 million. In March 2023 the redemption liability related to Purmo Group's Russian business increased by EUR 1.3 million. For accounting purposes, the Russian business is presented as continuing operations as it does do not meet the criteria for discontinued operations. Russia represented circa 3 per cent of Purmo Group's total net sales in 2022.
There were no major structural changes during the second quarter of the year.
Product development within Purmo Group focuses on connecting smart HVAC equipment from the energy source to thermal emitters in one unified and intelligent system. Combining and connecting Purmo Group's heat pumps with heat emitters and other systems provided by the Group maximises energy savings for end-users. Additionally, focus is on minimising material usage including product packaging, and on smart design that improves heating emitter system performance. Purmo Group also continues collaboration with its network in the field of control systems.
In line with its strategy, Purmo Group's pipeline of smart products continued to focus on three clear strategic priorities during the quarter: intelligence and connectability, sustainability and aesthetics.
Research and development (R&D) expenditure totalled EUR 1.5 million (1.7) in April–June 2023. Research and development (R&D) expenditure totalled EUR 3.2 million (3.5) in January–June 2023.
During the quarter, an upgraded range of oil-filled electric radiators called Yali Plus was launched. The next generation radiators include the Unisenza Plus control system, with which users can decide when their heating is active and avoid excess energy consumption. The Unisenza application is available for smart phones.
A significant improvement was also made to our underfloor heating pipe material during the quarter. The company now offers the world's most flexible PE-Xc pipe, enabling easy and quick installation for customers.

The company's growth strategy is built on three pillars:
Growth is supported by M&A opportunities which will foster consolidation and expansion.
The strategy is further supported by continuous improvement of operational excellence and by investments in people and culture.
On 5 October 2022, Purmo Group announced a strategy acceleration programme, "Accelerate PG", to strengthen the execution of the strategy. The programme focuses on improving net sales growth, profitability and net working capital efficiency to support reaching its financial targets.
The programme supports financial development of the Group for the full year 2023 and beyond.
The targeted adjusted EBITDA run-rate improvements are EUR 20 million by the end of 2023, and cumulatively EUR 40 million by the end of 2024.
The profitability improvements include both variable and fixed cost savings, excluding areas where market growth is expected to continue. Additionally, the company continues to evaluate accelerating its footprint optimisation, covering both manufacturing and supply chain.
The costs for the programme are expected to be approximately EUR 43 million, of which EUR 33 million is expected to be incurred before the end of 2023 and the remainder in 2024.
Accelerate PG is delivering improvements ahead of plan. Implemented adjusted EBITDA run-rate improvements at the end of the second quarter amounted to EUR 16.5 million, up from EUR 11.3 million at the end of the first quarter 2023. Adjusted EBITDA periodic impact during the quarter amounted to EUR 3.4 million (EUR 1.4 million during the previous quarter).
The most significant improvements within the strategy acceleration programme have been generated from pricing optimisation, procurement savings and overhead cost reductions from operating model changes. The savings reported in the programme are incremental and recurring, thus do not include inflationary effects on neither sales price or input costs.
As a part of the programme, and in response to overcapacity in the panel radiator market, the company has entered into consultation with employee representatives regarding its intention to discontinue the production of panel radiators at its plant in Zonhoven, Belgium. The possible consequences could be the closure of the production and maintenance departments and a collective redundancy. The process is subject to local consultation.
The announced intention concerns 143 employees. Purmo Group Belgium employs 227 people in the manufacture of steel panel radiators, warehousing and distribution as well as in customer service, sales and support functions.

Purmo Group's "Complete Care" approach to sustainability is designed to be wide-reaching, transparent, tangible, measurable and effective. It covers four focus areas: Production, the way Purmo Group make things; Solutions, the things Purmo Group makes; People, the Purmo Group employees that make them; and Communities, the communities Purmo Group reach.
Purmo Group continued to make progress against its ESG targets in the second quarter of 2023.
Carbon intensity increased by 30 per cent to 106.7 (81.9) during the second quarter. Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions decreased by 4 per cent to 19,243 tCO2e (20,065) primarily due to continued lower production volumes. During the second quarter a total of 4,817 solar panels were installed on the roof of the plant in Yangzhou, China. The solar panels will generate 2,500 MWh annually and they are part of Group's commitment to sourcing 100% renewable energy for all its plants by 2030.
During the quarter, the Group began a programme to accelerate the production of Environmental Product Declarations with an external partner. In addition, 92% of 1,000 targeted employees completed a mandatory training regarding circularity. The training is part of Purmo Group's commitment to embed circularity principles across the company.
Employee Net Promoter Score improved from -8 to -6 during the quarter. However, Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate per million hours worked (LTIFR) increased to 10.2 (4.6). The increase in the amount of Lost Time Injuries is being investigated. In addition, a 100-day post-accident review process has been implemented. The number of safety observations decreased by 15 per cent to 250 (293) in the quarter.
Community activity continues to perform strongly, driving employee engagement within Purmo Group. During the second quarter, employees dedicated 2,696 hours in total (1,739) for volunteering to support local communities.
Purmo Group is preparing for the implementation of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), for the reporting year 2024. The preparations for CSRD will include a double materiality analysis which will begin in the second half of the year. Purmo Group is also running an exercise regarding its Scope 3 Green House Gas emission baseline as part of its commitment to submit Science Based Targets to the SBTi organisation for certification in 2023.

The decrease in full-time-equivalent employees was mainly due to organisational effectiveness related to Accelerate PG programme.

The first instalment of the return of capital of EUR 0.09 per class C share and EUR 0.02 per class F share was paid on 21 April 2023.

Purmo Group's costs have been affected by high inflation, but the company has been able to manage profitability by focusing on cost management actions which is part of normal business activities as well as its Accelerate PG programme. In addition, the company has been successful in maintaining prices on a healthy level in a challenging market environment. There is no certainty whether the inflation rates will decrease in the near future. Fluctuations in the prices of raw materials, consumables, energy, and freight rates as well as problems with availability of raw materials, supplies, labour and freight shipping may have a negative impact on Purmo Group's profitability and operations.
The short-term demand for Purmo Group's products depends on fluctuations in demand in the construction industry, which is cyclical in nature, especially new building. Volumes and profitability may vary as a result of economic conditions and the amount of investments in real estate.
Uncertainty in global economy and high inflation can increase volatility in foreign exchange rates as well as have an adverse effect on interest rates and the availability of funding. Purmo Group is exposed to currency risks. Group's financial risk management approach is to hedge highly probable exposure in foreign currencies (including, but not limited to British pound, Swedish krona and Polish zloty). Regardless of hedging activities, the Group may encounter fluctuations in its financial position due to volatility in foreign exchange rates. Rising interest rates has had an impact in the cost of funding for Purmo Group. The Group has financial derivatives to reduce and manage the impact of interest
rate fluctuations.
The accelerated energy transition and customers' awareness of high energy prices creates pressure for cost control and energy efficiency in some product groups of Purmo Group. However, the energy transition is expected to increase the demand for low-temperature systems and solutions which are compatible with energy sources other than fossil fuels. This creates an opportunity for the execution of Purmo Group's solution selling strategy. There are differences between markets in how the transition changes the demand for certain products, however, Purmo Group is well positioned to manage the change and capture opportunities with the support of its wide product portfolio.
In addition to energy efficiency of products, the expectations related to ESG are increasing. Purmo Group has a sustainability strategy and a function. Proactive, effective and successful measures may mean that Purmo Group is able to create business opportunities relating to the expectations and requirements.
There is an increased level of cyberthreat activity in Europe. The company has a function responsible for the Group's cyber security. In order to respond to the increased cyberthreats, the company has developed a well-functioning infrastructure setup and an active employee training process which has been running since Q3 2021.
The war in Ukraine continues to have a significant negative impact on demand for Purmo Group's products in the country. The war has caused negative economic consequences also in other markets than Russia and Ukraine. There is a risk that private and commercial investment decisions will continue to be postponed or cancelled due to high inflation, increased interest rates and/or general economic uncertainty.
Purmo Group has set the following financial targets and dividend policy:
Purmo Group is targeting organic net sales growth in excess of market growth. In addition, Purmo Group aims for notable inorganic growth through acquisitions.
In April–June 2023, organic net sales decreased by 25 per cent, while total net sales decreased by 26 per cent to EUR 180.3 million (245.0). The decline in net sales was a result of low volumes and continued weak demand in renovation and new build sectors across markets for the Group.
Purmo Group is targeting an adjusted EBITDA margin above 15 per cent in the medium- to long-term.
In April–June 2023, the adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 11.8 per cent (11.4).
The increase in adjusted EBITDA margin was a result of strong margin management within both divisions. The strategic transition to a solutions business and the Accelerate PG programme are expected to expand the adjusted EBITDA margin towards the 15 per cent medium to long-term target.
The leverage ratio is targeted not to exceed 3.0x, measured as interest bearing net debt / Adjusted EBITDA on a rolling twelve-month basis. However, leverage may temporarily exceed the target level, for example in conjunction with acquisitions or restructuring actions.
At the end of June 2023, net debt / adjusted EBITDA was 2.76 (31 Dec 2022: 2.96). The decrease in the ratio was due to lower level of net debt mainly as a result of the issuance of hybrid bond of EUR 60.0 million in February 2023.
Purmo Group's aim is to distribute at least 40 per cent of annual net profit as dividends or return of capital, intended to be paid out after considering earnings trends for the Group, its financial position and future growth potential.
For financial year 2022 Purmo Group Plc distributes a return of capital of EUR 0.36 per class C share and EUR 0.07 per class F share. The return of capital will be paid in four instalments on 21 April 2023, 22 September 2023, 19 December 2023 and 22 March 2024.

Purmo Group reiterates its financial guidance for 2023. Adjusted EBITDA in 2023 is expected to be on a similar level to 2022 (EUR 92.9 million). Similar means being within +/- 5 per cent of the previous year.
Strong margin management demonstrates the strength of the underlying business of Purmo Group. Combined with the Accelerate PG programme being ahead of plan, it provides confidence in the outlook for the rest of the year. Purmo Group reiterates the previously communicated targets for the Accelerate PG programme – targeted adjusted EBITDA run-rate improvements of EUR 20 million by the end of 2023 and cumulatively EUR 40 million by the end of 2024.
The visibility for 2023 is limited due to macroeconomic uncertainties and the market environment continues to be challenging in Purmo Group's addressable markets. Furthermore, the guidance also factors in that Purmo Group is building up capabilities to facilitate future growth. This has an impact on the company's cost base, and hence the net savings from the Accelerate PG programme.

Purmo Group Plc, "Purmo Group" or the "Company", business ID 2890898-5, is a public limited company domiciled in Helsinki. The registered address of Purmo Group is Bulevardi 46, 00120 Helsinki, Finland.
This unaudited half-year financial report comprise the parent company Purmo Group Plc and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Group" and individually "Group companies"). The Company's class C shares are listed on the Nasdaq Helsinki stock exchange.
This unaudited half-year financial report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. This half-year financial report does not include all information required for a complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. Selected explanatory notes are therefore included to explain events and transactions that are significant to understand the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements. The accounting policies applied are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 except the adoption of new and amended standards.
On 16 February 2023 Purmo Group issued a hybrid bond of EUR 60.0 million. The hybrid bond is subordinated to the company's other debt obligations and is treated as equity in the Group's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. The hybrid bond does not confer to its holders the rights of a shareholder and does not dilute the holdings of the shareholders. The hybrid bond bears interest at a fixed rate of 9.5 per cent per annum until 23 February 2026 after which the hybrid bond will bears interest at a floating interest rate quarterly in arrears on each interest payment date. The hybrid bond does not
have a specified maturity date, and the Company is not under an obligation to repay, repurchase or redeem the hybrid bond at any specified date. The Company has the possibility to redeem the hybrid bond on the reset date, on 23 February 2026. The hybrid bond is initially recognised at fair value less transaction cost and subsequently the bond is measured at cost. Interest is recorded into retained earnings adjusted with tax effect upon payment or accrued interest is recorded into retained earnings adjusted with tax effect and as an accrued interest liability when the commitment to payment arises. When calculating earnings per share, the result is adjusted with hybrid bond interests regardless of payment date and adjusted with tax effect.
This half-year financial report is presented in million euros unless otherwise stated. The figures in the tables and texts are subject to rounding, which may cause some rounding inaccuracies in aggregate column and row totals.
The Group has applied the relevant revised IFRS standards published by IASB effective for financial reporting periods commencing on 1 January 2023. The application of the revised standards has not had a material impact on the results, the financial position or the presentation of the half-year financial report.
Purmo Group's business and cash flows are affected by seasonality. Typically, most of the demand for Purmo Group's products occurs during the peak heating-season with a notable increase in monthly demand in September-November. Quarterly seasonality is more muted as the third and fourth quarters are typically tempered by lower demand in July-August and December due to holiday periods. Overall, demand is typically at the lowest level during the second quarter when the heating demand is at its lowest. This is only partially offset by the peak coolingseason as Purmo Group has a relatively smaller exposure to demand for air conditioning systems. The quarterly comparisons of Purmo Group's sales and operating results are therefore impacted by seasonality and changes in raw material prices, and the results of any quarterly period
may not be indicative of expected results for a full year.
An IFRS-compliant half-year financial report requires the Group's management to exercise judgment and make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and other information such as the amounts of income and expense. Although these estimates are based on the management's best knowledge at the time, it is possible that actual results differ from the estimates used in the half-year financial reports.
The Group's management has reviewed the carrying values of the balance sheet items and the review did not indicate need for asset impairments.
The Group's management has assessed the balance sheet impact of Russia's war in Ukraine and the decision to divest the business in Russia. The management has considered indicators of impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, the recoverable amount of property plant and equipment and right-of-use assets, the valuation of inventories, trade receivables and redemption liability. Due to the significant uncertainties related to the business in Russia and Ukraine the Group recognised impairment charges and writedowns of EUR 12.9 million on goodwill, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, inventories, other assets and redemption liability in financial year 2022. In March 2023 the Group increased the redemption liability with EUR 1.3 million.
As of 1 January 2023 the segments for Purmo Group are Climate Products & Systems and Climate Solutions. The new segment reporting structure is aligned with the new organisational structure announced 5 October 2022. Purmo Group has restated the 2022 comparison figures according to the new segment reporting. The restated figures are unaudited.
The Climate Products & Systems division sells via wholesalers in both residential and non-residential sector. Sales regions are Northern, Western, Southern and Eastern Europe, and the rest of the world, including Brazil, China, Japan and the United States.
The main product categories within Climate Products & Systems are panel radiators, tubular radiators, and electric radiators. In addition, radiant heating and cooling (RHC), including underfloor heating, air heating and cooling, water distribution systems as well as system components and controls belong to the main product categories within Climate Solutions & Systems.
The Climate Solutions division sells directly to installers from the company's Emmeti business in South Europe, Thermotech business in the Nordic region and Merriott business in the United Kingdom.
Climate Solutions provides integrated solutions, which include a comprehensive set of heating and cooling solutions for customers whose goal is to achieve energy savings and reduce the emissions generated by energy consumption.
Other and unallocated items comprise corporate headquarter functions and other Group level costs including Group Finance, Group Legal, Group Sustainability, Group Communications, Group Human Resources, and M&A. The head office costs comprise mostly of salaries, rent and professional fees that are operated for the benefit of the whole group and are not allocated to the divisions.
Purmo Group's Board of Directors, assisted by the CEO, is the Group's chief operating decision maker. The operating segments are defined based on the information that the Board of Directors uses to make decisions about the resources to be allocated to the divisions and to assess their performance.
The divisions' financial performance is assessed internally based on net sales and adjusted EBITDA. The adjusted EBITDA has been derived from the unadjusted EBITDA by removing material and unexpected items outside the ordinary course of business and that are considered to impact comparability of the underlying business operations and by excluding costs and income incurred in the group functions as described above. Such items include direct M&A related transaction and integration costs, restructuring costs and costs incurred in connection with performance improvement programs, impairment and write-down charges connected to the Russian business, and losses relating to sale of fixed assets.

In February 2023 the company issued a EUR 60.0 million hybrid bond, which according to IFRS is recognised in equity and is thus not included in the company's financial liabilities. The hybrid bond has annual coupon of 9.5 per cent and the company has the possibility to redeem the bond on the reset date in February 2026.
At the end of the reporting date the company had the following undrawn credit facilities; EUR 80.0 million committed revolving credit facility, EUR 20.5 million overdraft facilities and EUR 125.0 million uncommitted M&A facility.
The fair value of items which are measured at fair value are categorised in three levels:
• Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
The tables below show the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities. It does not include fair value information for trade receivables, trade payables, or other short-term financial assets and liabilities, as their carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value due to their short maturities. There have been no transfers between fair value levels during the reporting period.
Financial assets and liabilities recognised at fair value through profit and loss comprise mainly currency derivatives. The recurring measurement of these instruments at fair value is based on commonly applied valuation methods and uses observable market-based variables. Therefore, these measurements are categorised in the fair value hierarchy as level 2 fair values.

At the end of March 2022 Purmo Group took the decision to exit its business in Russia. On 28 April 2023 the Group announced that it had signed an agreement to divest its Russian operations to ILPS. The completion of the transaction is subject to the approval by the relevant regulatory authority in Russia. Upon completion of the divestment, the Group will no longer have a manufacturing operation or sales in Russia. The Russian business has been measured at fair value less costs to sell and classified as assets held for sale and continuing operations.
The Group's management has assessed the balance sheet impact of the decision to divest the business in
Russia. The management has considered indicators of impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, the recoverable amount of property plant and equipment and right-of-use assets, the valuation of inventories, trade receivables and the redemption liability. Due to the significant uncertainties related to the business in Russia the Group recognised impairment charges and write-downs of EUR 12.9 million in 2022 on goodwill, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, inventories, other assets and the redemption liability. In March 2023 the Group increased the redemption liability with EUR 1.3 million.
