Byggma ASA consists of the production and trading companies Forestia AS, Huntonit AS, Uldal AS, Masonite Beams AB, Smartpanel AS, Masonite Beams AS, Aneta Lighting AS and Aneta Lighting AB. In addition, the real estate companies Byggma Eiendom AS, Forestia Eiendom AS, Huntonit Eiendom AS and Byggma Eiendom Lyngdal AS, which own industrial property, are included. Byggma is listed on Oslo Børs with the ticker BMA.
Byggma`s vision is to be among the leading suppliers of building materials solutions in the Nordic region.
Innovation and technological development are important elements of the Group's growth strategy, and there is a strong willingness to invest in the necessary equipment and expertise in order to be a leading player in the Nordic building materials market in the future.
In principle, Byggma allocate its investments to digitalisation and automation of production processes, as well as to the environment and sustainability. The expected turnover in 2023 is NOK 2.200 million and the Group has around 720 employees. The Group will seek to realise its vision through its fundamental values, which can be described as IIR:
Show interest, respect and understanding towards colleagues, customers and suppliers. Open and direct communication allows for influence and joint decisions that generate engagement. Help develop the people around you (we are no better than the weakest link).

Curious and in search of future challenges. Always solution oriented and on the lookout for opportunities and good ideas. Encourage the development and commersialisation of good ideas across the Group.
Continuous focus on HSE, including continuous focus on training and skills development. Act with integrity and stand by all that we say and do. Show concern for the environment, health and sustainable development in the execution of our activities.


Sales revenues in Q3 2023 decreased from NOK 565.2 million in Q3 2022 to NOK 470.2 million in 2023 corresponding to a decrease NOK 95.1 million (16.8 %). YTD sales revenues decreased from NOK 1,948.7 million in 2022 to NOK 1,651.6 million in 2023, corresponding to a decrease of NOK 297.1 million (15.2 %). Profit before tax decreased from NOK 115.5 million in Q3 2022 to NOK 56.2 million in Q3 2023. YTD profit before tax decreased from NOK 287.2 million in 2022 to NOK 157.0 million in 2023.
The building industry has experienced a vast downturn. An important indicator for the development in market size is the number of sold and commissioned housing units YTD compared to last year. YTD 2023 there are sold 9,606 housing units, corresponding to a decrease of 36 %. YTD 2023 there are commissioned 8,638 housing units, corresponding to a decrease of 45 %. This is the largest reduction we have seen in modern times. Factors as international noise, higher interest rates, and high inflation result in market participants to postpone the building of housing units. On the positive side, as the number of housing units being built is far below the need for new housing units, the theoretical order reserve increases vastly. This will lead to a large lift up in the building industry at a later point in time. We think that it is a sign of strength that Byggma is able to deliver healthy profitability in these challenging times.
Byggma has launched a new webpage for construction solutions to comply with fire and sound requirements, www.brannoglyd.no. The webpage shows construction solutions that are produced with products from Forestia AS with particle boards, Huntonit AS with wood fibre and MDF boards, Smartpanel AS with MDF boards and Masonite Beams with I-Joists (I-Beams).
The demand for aluminum windows is increasing and Uldal meets this by increasing its production capacity for this group of windows. This is among other things achieved by the investment in a clips machine. The project will also free manpower and facilitate a more efficient production.
As of 30 September 2023, Byggma ASA and its related party Drangsland Kapital AS owns ca. 24.1 % of the share capital in Norske Skog ASA. Byggma aims to be a long-term owner in Norske Skog

ASA. There are several synergy effects between Norske Skog and Byggma regarding process equipment, raw materials, logistics, product development and environment.
In 2022 Forestia invested NOK 40.0 million in a 4,000 m2 distribution hub in Braskereidfoss. Parallelly, the merger between AS Byggform and Forestia AS was completed as of 1 January 2023 and Byggform's inventory has been transferred to the hub. We believe it is value enhancing for Forestia and its customers that both former Byggform and Forestia products can be ordered simultaneously. Consequently, chipboard, OSB- and plywood boards can be delivered together.
Our product launches Forestia Premium Ceiling, Smartpanel Wetwall, Smart Veneer, Forestia Ergospon and Huntonit Pro Wall are still experiencing increasing sales in the market. These

decorative interior products add more value for the customer and hence have high unit prices. The increasing sales of these products are consequently increasing the profitability of the group.
The Group is constantly identifying new valuable sustainability projects that reduce emissions to both air and water, which simultaneously are economically profitable for Byggma. See more in the Sustainability section in this report.
Smartpanel has in 2022 and 2023 entered into cooperation agreements with several building material distributors for Smartpanel Wetwall. Exhibitions in stores will be built and sales are expected to increase going forward. Byggma has received approval to use Huntonit panels as core in Smartpanel Wetwall. This very environmentally friendly, moist resistant and strong Huntonit core gives Smartpanel cost leadership, price leadership and will be more environmentally friendly compared to other suppliers of wet room wall panels. Byggma's ambition is to achieve a 30% market share in the years to come.
With effect from 31 December 2022 the department for I-Beams at Huntonit in Vennesla was transferred from Huntonit AS to Masonite Beams AS. With this I-Beams from Masonite Beams AS Vennesla branch and Grubhei branch belong to the same legal entity and appear more clearly toward the customers in Norway.
Forestia has for a period been in dialogue with Innovasjon Norge to receive grants to support the building of a plant for reception and cleaning of wood waste to be reused in new woodchip boards. On 8 April 2023, Forestia was informed by the Minister of Finance, Trygve Slagsvold Vedum, and Minister of Trade and Industry, Jan Christian Vestre, that the Board of Directors of Innovasjon Norge had resolved to grant Forestia NOK 80 million for this project. This project will be value enhancing for Forestia. It will also make the woodchip boards from Forestia even more circular because the wood waste will be material recycled into new boards and sequestrate CO2 instead of energy recovered and release CO2 into the atmosphere through combustion. This will be a better usage of the wood waste in accordance with the multi-step cascading principle for biomass. It will also reduce sourcing risk as it makes Forestia less dependent on raw materials from the sawmills. Forestia is working with vendors to secure good, stable and long-term supply agreements for the project.

In the first half of 2023 an automated feeding station, profile saw and automated packing station has been installed in the production line for Huntonit Pro Wall. The new line has significantly higher speed and provides higher quality on click lock and profile. Furthermore, the automation gives the possibility for a much higher production volume with less manpower.

The Byggma Group experienced decline in revenues in Q3 2023. In Q3 revenues amounted to NOK 470.2 million in 2023, representing a decrease of NOK 95.1 million (16.8 %) from Q3 2022. YTD the revenues decreased from NOK 1,948.7 million in 2022 to NOK 1,651.6 million in 2023, corresponding to a decrease of NOK 297.1 million (15.2 %). Profit before tax decreased from NOK 287.2 million YTD 2022 to NOK 157.0 million YTD 2023.
The building industry has experienced a vast downturn. An important indicator for the development in market size is the number of sold and commissioned housing units YTD compared to last year. YTD 2023 there are sold 9,606 housing units, corresponding to a decrease of 36 %. YTD 2023 there are commissioned 8,638 housing units, corresponding to a decrease of 45 %. This is the largest reduction we have seen in modern times. Factors as international noise, higher interest rates, and high inflation result in market participants to postpone the building of housing units. On the positive side, as the number of housing units being built is far below the need for new housing units, the theoretical order reserve increases vastly. This will lead to a large lift up in the building industry at a later point in time. We think that it is a sign of strength that Byggma is able to deliver healthy profitability in these challenging times.
We are implementing two important measures to mitigate the financial effects of this market development. The first measure is increased marketing regarding our innovative products Huntonit Pro Wall, Forestia Premium Ceiling, Forestia Ergospon, Smartpanel Wetwall and Smart Veneer. This will generate increased revenue streams to offset the decrease in conventional revenue following the lower demand for our base products. The second measure is to reduce costs to compensate for lower gross profits due to lower sales.
"We are lucky to have many skilled, competent, and motivated people who are performing at levels that far exceed my expectations. My heartfelt thanks to you all! Your dedication to the job is greatly appreciated."
This quarter I am happy about the development in the segment Beams. Despite the downturn in sales following the cooldown in the newbuild market, the segment has maintained a healthy

operating profit margin. This has been achieved through very stable operations in the factory and excellent quality in the procurement process.
I am delighted with the results achieved. We are lucky to have many skilled, competent, and motivated people who are performing at levels that far exceed my expectations. My heartfelt thanks to you all! Your dedication to the job is greatly appreciated.
Byggma is an original brand manufacturer. Several of our brands have been extensively adopted by the building materials industry over many years. This enhances predictability, recognition, and security, all of which are important drivers in customers preferring to purchase Byggma products.
Our overall position as one of the leading suppliers of building materials solutions has strengthened throughout the year. A situation that I find heartening to say the least, but also testifies to the fact that our jobs are secure. The invigorative trend we are seeing also confirms that we are doing things right in all areas of the company.
Every product has a life cycle. Byggma currently has many products that are well-established in the market. In order to ensure a stable product portfolio, we are constantly focused on product development and innovation. Product improvements and new launches have enabled us to achieve increased revenue and profitability in recent years. An achievement we have also repeated this year. Innovation and product development are high priorities in our strategy and will continue to be so in the future.
Forests sequestrate significant amounts of carbon and through wise management of this resource, we are responsibly creating worthy products that store carbon for many decades. In several instances, the contributions we make to carbon storage in our operations significantly outweigh the effect from the operations' carbon footprint.
At Byggma, we have a tradition of focusing our work on productivity and continuous improvement. Sustainability is in many ways a further development of this work. In terms of sustainability and through the involvement of our committed team of employees and partners, we will exploit resources efficiently, while also securing jobs and the future of a company that is a source of value creation for society in general.
I would like to take this opportunity to mention a couple of vital ESG projects that we have worked with in Q3 2023.

The factories are constantly working to improve sustainability of our products' packaging/ wrapping in order to reduce weight transported and waste on construction sites. Forestia has optimised the packaging facility so that more of the products can be packed in recyclable containerboard instead of particle board. This will lead to materially lower transportation weight and subsequently reduce waste on construction sites.
The new warehouse and logistic hub at Forestia were completed in Q4 2022. This made it possible to move the inventory from Byggform to Forestia at Braskereidfoss. Byggform was formally merged into Forestia with effect from 1 January 2023 and the new center has made Forestia a logistic hub for wood-based boards that makes a difference regarding transportation optimisation. The project is welcomed by our customers and gives environmental and financial advantages for our customers and Byggma.
Masonite Beams AB has invested in a machine to enable jointing of cut off wood together to new products. This will increase the usage of purchased wood raw materials and reduce waste. This is a good example of UN's sustainability goal 12 which is a priority for Byggma.
My thanks to each and every one of you at Byggma for your efforts this far in 2023. My wish is for everyone to thrive here and for each of you to realise your personal potential through your role in the Byggma Group.

Best regards
Geir Drangsland Group CEO

The operating profit in Q3 2022 contains non-recurring items, see reconciliation of adjusted operating profit in the table above. The operating profit in Q3 2023 is higher for the Lighting segment, but lower for the other segments compared to the same period in 2022.
From 9 March 2023 the investment in Norske Skog ASA is classified as an investment in associate and is accounted for using the equity method in accordance with IAS 28. See note 12 for more information. Share of profit from associate was NOK 53.9 million in Q3 2023.

THE WINDOWS SEGMENT consists of the company Uldal AS.
In 3. kvartal 2023, the Windows segment achieved lower sales revenues and lower operating profit compared with the corresponding period in 2022. The Windows segment is still facing intense competition and pricing pressure in the market.
Investments previously made regarding the factory are now having a major effect on ensuring shorter delivery times. This has led to Uldal increasing their market share significantly.
Investments in production equipment for sliding doors enables the company to produce sliding doors in-house cost-efficiently, instead of buying them at high prices as goods for resale.
The demand for aluminum windows is increasing and Uldal meets this by increasing its production capacity for this group of windows. This is among other things achieved by the investment in a clips machine. The project will also free manpower and facilitate a more efficient production.
The Board of Directors (BoD) is satisfied with the sales and operating profit in Q3 2023. The BoD understands that the vast downturn in the market has resulted in lower sales and profit for the Windows segment compared to last year. Management will continue to focus on sales and cost trends.

The financial accounts for 2022 have been restated following a change in financial statement principle for Byggma Eiendom Lyngdal to investment property in accordance with IAS 40. See note 32 in Byggma ASA's annual report for 2022 for more information.
Please see the Real Estate overview later in this report.

Forests and wood capture and stores significant amounts of carbon (sequestration) and at Byggma the good management of this resource is all about creating high quality products that store carbon for many decades. In several of our operations, the contributions to carbon storage significantly outweigh the carbon footprint from our operations.

At Byggma, we have a tradition of working on productivity and continuous improvement. Sustainability is in many ways a progression of this work. In terms of sustainability and through the involvement of a committed team of employees and partners, Byggma will continue to implement efficient use of resources, while also securing jobs and ensuring the future of a company that is committed to creating value for society. The following are some of the projects developed in 2023.

Byggma has invested in a tool to meet the requirements in the Norwegian Transparency Act (Åpenhetsloven). Byggma's vendors have filled out questionnaires to map out risks and opportunities in the value chain.
A different module in Worldfavor covers sustainability data for the various companies in Byggma group. The system will help standardising and consolidating data for the companies and the group. We are now in the implementing phase and will use this system for the 2023 reporting. Then we will perform a GAP analysis against the requirements in CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) from 2024.
Our products must be packaged in a way that ensures that they arrive undamaged at our customers' sites with normal handling. We have performed transportation tests to ensure this. Packaging is at the same time a problem in the form of waste at building sites and extra weight to be transported.
In Q3 2023 Forestia has continued its project concerning less use of particle boards as packaging. The packaging line for Walls 2 Paint is now converted to replace particle board with cardboard packaging. First it is enabled for 2930 mm length and then for the other lengths in Q4.
The conversion will realise an annual weight reduction of ca. 550 tonnes of packaging for the 2930 mm and net ca. 680 tonnes in total. This equals an annual reduction off ca. 11,5 tonnes CO2. Additionally, it means an annual reduction of ca. 680 tonnes to handle at the building sites.



Before After

The new logistics hub at Forestia was completed in Q4 2022. Byggform was merged with Forestia in 2023 and the new hub has become vital regarding bulk loading, transportation optimisation and to ensure that we reach satisfactory fill grades on trucks going out of Forestia. This reduces emissions from transportation, and it is a good project financially.
Waste is wasteful and we will through procurement and internal operations reduce the scope of waste from our production and activities. Forestia is a member of Grønt Punkt Norge who contributes to a high degree of recycling of our waste. In 2022 we had a sorting degree of 54% which we are not happy with. We aim to 75% sorting degree in 2023.

In Q3, Forestia has organized its waste streams and found several sortable fractions. These fractions will now be put into a system with their own containers.

In 2022 we had tap stations with water in plastic containers. We bought 11,000 liters of water tapped in Dalarne, Sweden. In 2023 we have invested in dispensers with cooling connected to municipality water.
In 2022 we used 409,000 kWh on lighting in the factory. In 2023 we have swapped from traditional to LED light bulbs that consume 50% less electricity and last much longer before the bulbs must be replaced.
The goal of the project is to develop the biobased glue of the future with less climate footprint and less fossil based chemicals. We joined the project as construction partners to include aspects covering moist resistance and fire resistance.

Through this project we will get the opportunity to influence a new labelling system that could become a new standard in the market. The focus is to see the real advantages regarding the environment and our goal is for the energy efficiency of buildings to be calculated correctly.
Circular construction and use of building elements in wood. Here we have the opportunity to see which possibilities we have to reduce carbon footprint with the help of the circular flow regarding reduced waste and cooperation between companies to increase the yield and reduce carbon emissions. Additionally, there are opportunities to use our products in building elements that can be reused in multiple joints and therefore results in very low carbon emissions.

Byggma monitors the housing market continuously, as this is an important arena for the company. We see lower activity in some areas of the market but are experiencing increased sales of new product launches introduced to the market. During the last 12 months there are sold 13,973 and commissioned 16,047 housing units in the market for newbuilds. The need for housing units has been increased to 29 000 which can lead to serious consequences for the housing supply if the trend continues. When sales and commissioning are below the need, pent up demand grows, and more housing units will be produced at a later point in time. Meanwhile, we are still experiencing high activity in commercial buildings and public buildings. The renovation and extension market expects to see growth as the market to a larger extent is characterised by the fact that more people don't change residence.
The vast increase in raw materials is the most important explanation for lower sales and commissioning of new housing units in 2023. Additionally, the interest rate development may affect the activity in the newbuild and the renovation and extension market. The conflict in Ukraine may also affect markets and factors as access to raw materials, energy and increased prices on imported goods. However, we see more stable prices on timber going forward, which may increase sales and commissioning of new housing units increasing the demand for building materials. This is supported by the upward adjustment of the official number of housing units needed in Norway to 29.000 per year. This may increase the demand for Byggma ASAs products in the medium and long term.
We experience the same market development for Byggma's products outside Norway.
The market development has meant that the input factors for several of the segments are considerably more expensive. Byggma has implemented price increases during the last two years in order to maintain a reasonable margin.
Group management is continuously monitoring the situation in order to be able to implement cost reductions resulting from lower activity levels.
The board of directors is continuously considering various strategic adaptations and possibilities for alliances and transactions. The goal is to strengthen Byggma's position in the Nordic building materials market.
In order to ensure further growth, investment in the sale of the Group's products outside Norway is an important part of Byggma's strategy. Innovation and technological development are vital components of the Group's growth strategy, driven by a forceful determination to invest in essential equipment and expertise to maintain its position as a leading player in the Nordic building materials market in the future. Byggma Group is firmly focused on achieving efficiency, dominance, and profitability.
Byggma is well positioned for implementing its enhancement processes for maintaining its position as a leading, efficient producer of building products. Several major investments have

been made to streamline our processes. New investments in equipment have also been decided and this will enable greater efficiency. In principle, Byggma will be directing its investments toward digitization and automation of the production processes, including the
As per 30 September 2023 Byggma ASA owns ca. 18,5 % of the share capital in Norske Skog ASA. Together with related party Drangsland Kapital AS, Byggma controls ca. 24.1% of the shares in Norske Skog.
CEO in Byggma, Geir Drangsland, is CEO in Norske Skog with effect from 1 September 2023. Simultaneously he resigned as Chairman of the board in Norske Skog. Geir Drangsland has informed the board in Byggma that that he will resign as CEO in Byggma. The process of hiring a new CEO is started and the plan is to employ a new CEO in Byggma in the beginning of 2024.
It is an important part of Byggma's strategy to strengthen its position as a leading original brand manufacturer of environmentally friendly and sustainable products in the Nordic building materials market. It is the Board's opinion that completed adjustments and cost reductions entails that the group is well positioned and well prepared to tackle future challenges.
Byggma Group has a stable and highly competent work force and the supply for manpower is good. The group aims to be an attractive employer. We will continue to focus on ensuring that all employees in the Group can realize their human potential through their employment at Byggma.
