CEO comments

Strong mining

In the fourth quarter, the order intake increased to MSEK 16 182 (14 388), corresponding to an organic growth of 5%. The mining customer demand remained high, especially for our solutions within automation and digitalization. Our large orders amounted to MSEK 820 (680) and included two large orders for wireless connectivity solutions for mines. Robust and reliable wireless networks are crucial for supporting mining automation and digitalization, which are strategic growth areas for us.

The demand from infrastructure customers was mixed, with solid demand from customers within tunneling and civil engineering, whereas the demand from construction customers remained weak.

In the near term, we expect that the underlying mining demand, both for equipment and aftermarket, will remain at a high level. Demand from construction customers is expected to remain weak.

Revenues and profitability

Revenues were record high and increased 11% to MSEK 17 251 (15 568), corresponding to an organic growth of 4%.

The operating profit, EBIT, was MSEK 3 427 (3 349), including items affecting comparability of MSEK 22 (120). The adjusted operating margin was 19.7% (20.7). Our actions to improve efficiency, including a significant reduction of our workforce, have been implemented according to plan and will continue during 2025. The weak demand in construction as well as dilution from acquisitions, mainly Stanley Infrastructure, had a significant negative impact for Tools & Attachments. The dilution from acquisitions on Group operating margin was -1.4 percentage points.

Strong cash flow

We had a strong cash conversion rate, 104%. The operating cash flow increased to nearly SEK 4 billion. Inventory reduction from high equipment invoicing contributed to the strong cash flow.

2024 in brief

In 2024, the orders received and revenues for Epiroc reached record highs, supported by acquisitions and a strong demand from mining customers with a particularly strong demand for automation solutions. The demand from construction customers, was weak, which impacted profitability negatively. The largest acquisition was Stanley Infrastructure, which provides specialty attachments. Despite the current weak market environment, we are confident that this acquisition positions us well in attractive infrastructure niches long term.

The Group adjusted operating margin was 19.8% (21.7) and we took several actions to improve profitability. To remain the technology leader within automation, digitalization and electrification, Epiroc continued to invest heavily in R&D, more than SEK 2 billion.

Innovation leadership

Innovation is one of our core values, and the 10% of our employees who are working in R&D made 2024 into a true testament to what we can achieve. Successful product launches within electrification included our Minetruck MT66 S eDrive ("hybrid"), which combines the cost level of a diesel truck with the productivity of an electric one.

At year end, we had an automated fleet of more than 3 450 driverless machines of mixed brands, up 21% compared to previous year. Another success was the order growth for our digital solutions, which grew 30%. Within electrification, we saw good results, where the use of our battery-electric machines in operations more than doubled. Our circular service offering also grew strongly, up 19%. It is clear that our equipment, our aftermarket support, and our automation, digitalization and electrification solutions, have created more value than ever for our customers in 2024. We are committed to do even more in the future.

To all colleagues, thank you for making innovation and operational improvement parts of your daily work, ensuring that Epiroc stays ahead and creates value for all stakeholders.

Helena Hedblom President and CEO

Note 2: Acquisitions and divestments

The table presents annual revenues in MSEK and employees at the time of the acquisition.

Acquisitions completed in 2024

  • Stanley Infrastructure designs, manufactures, and sells attachments, typically used on excavators, and handheld hydraulic and battery-powered tools for applications in infrastructure, construction, scrap recycling, deconstruction, and railroad infrastructure. Its strong and innovative brands include LaBounty, Paladin, Pengo and Dubuis. The acquisition strengthens Epiroc's presence especially in the United States. Stanley Infrastructure had revenues in 2023 of MUSD 447 (MSEK 4 725), an adjusted EBITA margin of 16% and 1 380 employees. The acquisition was announced on December 15, 2023, and was completed on April 1, 2024. Revenues from the acquisition are reported in "Tools & Attachments". The purchase price (Enterprise Value) amounted to MUSD 760 (MSEK 8 200) and is mainly allocated to intangible assets and goodwill. The acquisition was an all-cash transaction. The acquisition has diluted the Group's and the Tools & Attachments' full year 2024 adjusted EBITA margins with approximately -1.1 and -3.0 percentage points respectively. Integration and transaction costs amounted to MSEK -255 in 2024 (booked in Q1 and Q2).

Epiroc already owned 34% of ASI Mining, which it acquired in 2018. The acquisition of the remaining 66% of the company was completed on July 3. Revenues from the acquisition are reported in "Equipment". The transaction has led to a positive revaluation effect of the ownership held prior to the acquisition in the segment Equipment & Service. The gain has been reported as an item affecting comparability of MSEK +554 in the third quarter 2024.
  • ACB+ manufactures attachments and quick couplers used on excavators for construction as well as related areas such as scrap recycling and deconstruction. Quick couplers are used with carriers, typically excavators, to enable safe and efficient change of attachments, such as buckets and hydraulic tools. The company is market leading in France and has customers throughout Europe. The company has approximately MSEK 325 in annual revenues and 140 employees. The acquisition was announced on May 24 and was completed on September 4. Revenues from the acquisition are reported in "Tools & Attachments".

Several key figures in this report are not defined according to IFRS. The alternative performance measures are marked with a *. They provide complementary information aiming to help readers to analyze the company's operations and facilitate an evaluation of the performance. Since not all companies calculate financial performance measures in the same manner, these are not always comparable with measures used by other companies. These financial performance measures should therefore not be regarded as a replacement for measures as defined according to IFRS. For a list of financial definitions, non-IFRS measures and calculations, visit the Epiroc Group website.
