This presentation contains certain "forward-looking statements". These statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to risks, uncertainty and changes in circumstances, which may cause actual results, performance, financial condition or achievements to differ materially from anticipated results, performance, financial condition or achievements. All statements contained herein that are not clearly historical in nature are forward-looking and the words "anticipate," "believe," "expect," "estimate," "plan," and similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have no intention and are under no obligation to update or alter (and expressly disclaim any such intention or obligation to do so) our forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by law. The forward-looking statements in this presentation include statements addressing our future financial condition and operating results. Examples of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements include, among others, business, economic, competitive and regulatory risks, such as conditions affecting demand for products, particularly in the automotive industries; competition and pricing pressure; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices; natural disasters and political, economic and military instability in countries in which we operate; developments in the credit markets; future goodwill impairment; compliance with current and future environmental and other laws and regulations; and the possible effects on us of changes in tax laws, tax treaties and other legislation. More detailed information about these and other factors is set forth in the 2021 Kongsberg Automotive Annual Report and the Kongsberg Automotive Quarterly Reports.
Where we have used non-IFRS financial measures, reconciliations to the most comparable IFRS measure are provided, along with a disclosure on the usefulness of the non-IFRS measure, in this presentation.

Market update






The impact of declining volumes was offset by benefits from operational improvements in variable costs and other operational costs.
Compared to Q1 2023, the change in impact from valuation in relation to inventory was negative MEUR 2.3. The settlement with a supplier on a warranty claim led to a one-time income of MEUR 2.8.
One–time valuation effects in relation to inventory in Q1 2023 were positive at MEUR 1.0, whereas in Q1 2024 they were negative at MEUR 2.0. Disregarding this one-time effect, FCS benefitted from a significant improvement in variable cost.
> Operating result of other operations significantly benefitted from one-time effects of MEUR 1.3, the impaired assets and onerous contracts provisions of 2023.
NET INCOME, MEUR

> Foreign currency losses were significantly lower by MEUR 8.7 in Q1 2024 and amounted to MEUR 2.5. This is mainly due to less unfavorable NOK development impacting the revaluation of Intercompany loan of MEUR 200 in Norway.
> Despite the significant increase in earnings before tax, income tax expenses in Q1 2024 were lower than in Q1 2023, mainly due to less losses not to be capitalizable.
