CEO Comments

The third quarter concluded with mixed results. We experienced a decline in consolidated revenue (16%) over last year's third quarter, resulting from lower revenue recognition in our systems segment (43%). Our sales for advanced materials were up 5% but marked by a 62% reduction in order intake. While we anticipated the effects of the summer break for several of our customers, we encountered a more pronounced correction due to the overall slowdown in the industry since the beginning of this year, particularly within the additive manufacturing sector, which is a significant part of our business.

On a positive note, we are pleased with our efforts to reduce both direct and indirect costs since the start of the year. Despite a 16% drop in revenue, our adjusted EBITDA improved by CAD 0.3 million compared to the same period last year.

The total sales of materials for additive manufacturing have been lower than our expectations since early in 2024. Despite nearly uninterrupted growth over the past five years, higher interest rates and limited access to capital have affected a specific customer segment. Namely, our year-todate sales of powders to AM machine manufacturers (3D printers) specifically have dropped 46% year-over-year, indicating lower sales of new 3D printers in the market. On the other hand, our year-to-date sales to other strategic segments have grown respectively by 76% (Medical), 20% (Aerospace) and 10% (consumer electronics). The growth observed here is an indication of a higher utilization rate of 3D printers by the industry and is showing early signs of industrialisation and industry maturity.

We have recorded new R&D plasma system orders in the quarter contributing 2 million dollars to the backlog. The pipeline for new orders expected in the coming months has matured further. We emphasize the need for new systems orders to soundly conclude the year for this segment.

We are making progress in developing powders for the microelectronics market. Validation tests are yielding encouraging outcomes, with samples meeting a significant portion of the key performance characteristics sought for the applications Tekna is targeting. As mentioned in our previous reports, the progress in this segment involves synchronizing the product provided by Tekna with ongoing customers' development efforts. We are diligently pursuing this goal and plan on delivering an adjusted version of our product. Feedback is expected early next year.

After a few weeks into Q4, our Materials segment order book is showing signs of recovery, particularly in the Medical, Aerospace, and Consumer Electronics segments. This progress gives us confidence that Tekna is maintaining market share and suggests the market may be picking up. With this increasing order intake, we are cautiously optimistic about returning to higher growth rates.

We will benefit from the full impact of some of the cost savings measures implemented earlier this year while continuing to identify and implement new measures.

Luc Dionne, CEO Tekna Group

Results for the third quarter

In the third quarter of 2024, our performance reflects the resilience and strategic progress of our company, despite the seasonal challenges typically associated with summer vacations. We anticipated a decline in certain metrics. Our ongoing profitability improvement plan is firmly on track demonstrating our commitment to operational excellence and long-term growth.

Despite lower revenues, our contribution margin improved with a year-overyear increase to 46% (38%) as well as an improvement in Adj EBITDA to negative CAD 1.4 million (-1.7 million).

Additionally, our sales in the Materials segment experienced an increase of 4.6%, showcasing our ability to adapt and capitalize on market opportunities.

The decrease in backlog by 31% year-over-year is an area we are actively addressing through enhanced customer engagement and targeted initiatives in both Systems and Materials segments. Our focus remains on building a robust pipeline for future growth and on converting mature opportunities in our pipeline to new orders in the immediate term.

As announced in Q2, we have taken ambitious measures to improve profitability. The company continued its ambitious profitability improvement program, with focus on operational performance and productivity, reductions of headcount, operational expenditures and CapEx. The number of employees has been reduced by 15% year-over-year, ending the quarter at 186 (218) employees, of which we incurred CAD 0.2 million restructuring costs in the quarter. For comparability, this figure has been excluded from the Adjusted EBITDA.

Profitability and liquidity

Tekna started as an R&D company in 1990. It has since developed to become a world-leading supplier of advanced materials with deliveries to over 200 customers globally. As additive manufacturing has moved from the laboratories into industrial scale operations, so has Tekna's business, and the journey continues. The industry has experienced significant growth over time, but it is still immature with sensitivity to volatility in demand from quarter to quarter.

Efforts to simplify our organization are continuing, creating a leaner operation, reducing operating cost and further improving cash flow.

Profitability

Revenues from Plasma Systems were the largest negative deviation yearover-year, representing a 43% decrease in revenue in the period, meanwhile partially compensated by much improved margins by 19 percentage points, leaving a negative CAD 0.5 million deviation to EBITDA. Tekna had a record strong backlog in systems in 2023, meanwhile in 2024 there have been less new orders as existing pipeline projects have been delayed. Still, the outlook for this business remains highly positive over the long term, as market demand for plasma solutions continues to grow among entities engaged in space-related activities and the development of next-generation materials. Despite current challenges, the company's strategic position in this sector presents significant opportunities for future growth and value creation.

Revenues from Advanced Materials were at the same level as third quarter last year (+4.6%). The largest effect on EBITDA improvement was a positive contribution by improved margins of 9 percentage points. This was mostly driven by a favourable sales mix where increased sales of larger particle sizes played an important role.

In Q2, Tekna announced a cost saving program with a potential impact of CAD 2 million in adjusted EBITDA during the second half of 2024. These actions include savings resulting in margin improvement and a broader savings program in indirect costs. Many of these savings will have recurring effect also for 2025. Read more about the plan in our Half-year report 2024.

Liquidity

Tekna continues its careful approach to manage its cash position. Apart from becoming a cash-positive operation, the efforts focus on net working capital that saw an improvement by CAD 1.1 million from Q2 2024 and CAD 2.4 million since the start of the year. Our strategic focus on working capital continues to improve absolute levels and cycle time on inventory, receivables and payables. In addition, the company maintains a historically relatively low level of capital expenditures. After CapEx intensive years, CapEx will be gradually eased for a period and is expected around CAD 2.5 million in 2024 (excluding IFRS 16).

Net cash from operating activities in the third quarter was negative CAD 1.2 million, impacted by an increase in inventories by CAD 0.8 million and a reduction in other liabilities by CAD 0.1 million, meanwhile receivables decreased by CAD 1.8 million and contract assets decreased by CAD 0.3 million. The capital expenditures excluding IFRS 16 were CAD 0.6 million, ending the year-to-date at CAD 2.2 million. The cash balance at September 30, 2024 was reduced by CAD 1.7 million since last quarter, to CAD 7.6 million.

Tekna is working to recoup a potentially significant part of its legal costs in relation to the Intellectual Property litigation won in June 2024. Read more in the Advanced Materials section.

Order intake in Plasma Systems continues at the lower end of expectation with CAD 2.9 million for the quarter. The order backlog declined accordingly as equipment was produced and delivered to customers throughout the period.

Progress in the sales cycle has developed as expected with four customers passing the budget approval gate. The pipeline for new orders for Plasma Systems is strong, but the timing of these order is somewhat uncertain due to delays in execution of the customer's project.

Particularly for PlasmaSonic systems, some opportunities are accelerating. Hypersonic technology is in rapid development and completing the specification and requirements for a material development testing system for that purpose, like PlasmaSonic, has proven to be complex for our customers. Furthermore, the US elections and federal budgeting process have introduced delays in customers obtaining government funding. A PlasmaSonic order is expected in 2025.

In Advanced Materials, order intake for powders for additive manufacturing was down year-to-date by 13% compared to last year. The backlog reduced by 15% in the same period. Order intake in the third quarter this year was down 62% from the same quarter in 2023. The year-to-date revenues generated from the sales of powders are stable at CAD 19.0m and grew 4.6% to CAD 5.5m over the same period in Q3 last year.

The soft order intake and revenues are explained in part to the previously announced vacation period as well as a general slowdown in capital investment observed across the additive manufacturing industry, affecting sales of new 3D machines in the market. Conversely, our sales of materials to our Medical and Aerospace customers since the start of the year remains strong with a year-to-date increase of 35% and 25% respectively in the 3rd quarter over last year as depicted in the graph on the right.

Furthermore, progressive recovery has been observed in the later part of Q3 and is expected to continue according to analysts and field experts. See the CEO Comments for more information on the market.

The improvement in Contribution margin of 9 percentage points is due to significant sales of slower-moving materials, including for large-scale manufacturing of consumer electronic components, produced by means of metal injection molding.

Year-to-date production outputs of metal powders have significantly improved by 39% compared to the same period in 2023. The increase is due to continuous improvement on various production parameters, including Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), as well as one additional system which represents 20% points of the 39%. The increased capacity allows maintaining optimal inventory of prime size product enabling Tekna to respond rapidly to spot order opportunities.

As previously announced, Tekna secured a major win in an intellectual property case concerning competing patent rights to produce titanium powder in Canada. Per the Federal Court process, Tekna is working to recoup a potentially significant part of its related legal costs. A Notice of appeal was submitted on September 9 by the other party. It is Tekna's opinion that the risk resulting from the appeal is low. The complete ruling is available on https://www.tekna.com/investors/finreports.

Outlook

Current business

The additive manufacturing market is forecast by analysts to grow between 20% and 25% annually1 . Growth opportunities are driven globally by transition towards more efficient manufacturing technology and products as well as supply chain constraints across multiple industries.

Tekna's near-term growth is expected to continue to develop positively as it has done since the company started its journey to become a worldleading supplier of advanced materials globally.

Within Advanced Materials for additive manufacturing market, Tekna is looking to gradually increase sales and production capacity to deliver CAD 70 million in revenues by 2027 with limited need for CapEx as highlighted in the Midterm outlook (figure bottom left).

Tekna sees significant activity among potential customers in aerospace, space and hypersonic flight. The company has identified a PlasmaSonic pipeline of over CAD 300 million of which CAD 35 million worth of prospects is foreseen over the next 3 years.

Business upside potential: multi-layer ceramic capacitators (MLCC)

MLCC are small microelectronic components used in the manufacturing of nearly all electronics devices. Over 1 trillion of these MLCC are sold every year. Tekna is developing nickel nanomaterials for this industry. With only a few players and an undersupplied market, this is a highly attractive and relevant opportunity for Tekna, in which the company has achieved steady progress over the past few years.

Alternative Performance Measures

Definitions

Tekna presents alternative performance measures as a supplement to measures regulated by IFRS. The Group considers these measures to be an important supplemental measure for investors to understand the Groups' activities. They are meant to provide an enhanced insight into the operations, financing, and future prospects of the company.

These measures are calculated in a consistent and transparent manner and are intended to provide enhanced comparability of the performance from period to period. The definitions of these measures are as follows:

Contribution Margin: Is defined as revenues less direct variable costs such as direct labour, raw material, electricity, gas consumption, commissions, freight, customs and brokerage fees, laboratory supplies and packaging. The Contribution Margin is used to evaluate performance of production before any allocation of fixed manufacturing costs.

Contribution Margin %: is defined as the Contribution Margin divided by revenues in the period.

EBITDA: Is defined as the profit/(loss) for the period before income tax expense, finance costs, finance income, share of net income (loss) from associated companies and joint ventures, depreciation, and amortization.

EBITDA Margin: Is defined as EBITDA as a percentage of revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA: Is defined as the profit/(loss) for the period before income tax expense, finance costs, finance income, share of net income (loss) from associated companies and joint ventures, depreciation, and amortization adjusted for certain special operating items affecting comparability. These special operating items include, but not limited to, restructuring costs, listing costs, adjustments for expenses related to cloud-based software previously recorded in the balance sheet (retrospective implementation accounting for cloud-based services for the years 2021, 2020 and 2019) and litigation fees.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin: Is defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues.

EBIT: Is defined as the profit/(loss) for the period before income tax expense, finance costs, finance income, share of net income (loss) from associated companies and joint ventures.

EBIT Margin: Is defined as EBIT as a percentage of revenues.

Adjusted EBIT: Is defined as the profit/(loss) for the period before income tax expense, finance costs, finance income, share of net income (loss) from associated companies and joint ventures adjusted for certain special operating items affecting comparability. These special operating items include, but not limited to, restructuring costs, listing costs, adjustments for expenses related to cloud-based software previously recorded in the balance sheet (retrospective implementation accounting for cloud-based services for the years 2021, 2020 and 2019), and litigation fees.

Adjusted EBIT Margin: Is defined as Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of revenues. Adjusted EBIT Margin is a non-IFRS financial measure that the Group considers to be an APM, and this measure should not be viewed as a substitute for any IFRS financial measure.

Long Term Debt/Equity Ratio: Is defined as total non-current liabilities divided by total equity. Long Term Debt/Equity Ratio is a non-IFRS financial measure that the Group considers to be an APM, and this measure should not be viewed as a substitute for any IFRS financial measure.

Please see the Annual Report for a further detailed description of the Group's alternative performance measures.
