CEO COMMENTS

HIGHEST QUARTERLY SALES FOR A THIRD QUARTER

It is gratifying to note that sales for the fourth quarter of the year were the highest ever, SEK 323 M (300). Compared with the year-earlier period, the increase was 8 percent (9 percent at unchanged exchange rates). For the full year, net sales amounted to SEK 1,192 M (1,022), which is the highest in the company's history, corresponding to a 17 percent increase year-on-year. Operating profit totaled SEK 74 M (44), corresponding to an operating margin of 23 percent (15). The improved margin was mainly the result of increased license revenue, which amounted to SEK 160 M (139).

During the year, support revenue rose 14 percent and accounted for 40 percent of total sales. This is a result of new sales of licenses in combination with essentially no lost customers. Order intake often fluctuates between quarters and amounted to SEK 305 M (318) in the fourth quarter. Order intake for the full year amounted to SEK 1,087 M, which was higher than SEK 1,004 M in 2023. We are building on our strong momentum and see bright prospects for continued growth in first quarter 2025 and onwards. To summarize, RaySearch has a strong financial position with cash and cash equivalents of SEK 463 M, stable cash flow and no loans.

RAYSTATION IN CLINICAL USE FOR PROTON ARC THERAPY

At the end of last year, the team at Trento Proton Therapy Center in Italy became the first clinic in the world to introduce discrete proton arc optimization in RayStation combined with a radiation therapy machine from IBA. Proton arc therapy is a method that has the potential to provide considerable treatment benefits for patients. RaySearch has been a pioneer and played a crucial role in this development, and I am proud that this method has now been taken into clinical use.

GENISISCARE PLACES ORDER FOR RAYSTATION

GenesisCare purchased RayStation in October. GenesisCare operates 14 specialist outpatient cancer centers in the UK, and the order will enable the provider to fully replace its current Pinnacle radiotherapy treatment planning system with RayStation. RayStation will also enhance GenesisCare's established adaptive radiotherapy capabilities and continue to support remote planning across the entire network.

NEW PRODUCT AREAS – DRUGLOG AND LIVER ABLATION

In early 2024, we acquired the DrugLog product from Pharmacolog in Uppsala. DrugLog complements our product offering and represents another step towards achieving our long-term vision of providing software support for all types of cancer treatments, including chemotherapy and surgery. We received our first order for DrugLog in January through the Polish company Medim, which secured a contract with the Children's Memorial Health Institute in Warsaw, Poland.

At RSNA, the world's largest radiology conference, which was held in Illinois in the US in early December, we presented a new module for liver ablation in RayStation. The method was developed in a collaboration

between RaySearch and MD Anderson Cancer Center and showed considerably improved precision during liver ablation in a clinical trial. The reception at RSNA was very positive, and I am looking forward to following developments in this exciting area.

RAYCARE IN CLINICAL USE WITH TRUEBEAM

In May, RayCare 2024A was launched with many feature updates to improve usability and efficiency. In September, an important milestone was achieved when Iridium Network in Belgium treated its first patient using RayCare together with TrueBeam. The fact that RayCare is now used clinically with TrueBeam has completely changed the conditions for the product and has led to a sharp increase in customer interest.

A POSITIVE YEAR THAT PAVES THE WAY FOR A CONTINUED FAVORABLE TREND

It is gratifying to be able to sum up a positive 2024. In light of RaySearch's performance during the year and the fact that the operating margin has already exceeded our target of at least 20 percent in 2026, the Board has decided, as previously announced, to raise the target for the operating margin to at least 25 percent for 2026.

Finally, I would like to thank all our employees for the past year. Together, we are very well positioned to succeed with our long-term mission, to continue the advancement of cancer care to save lives and improve quality of life for cancer patients.

NET SALES & OPERATING PROFIT (SEK M, rolling 12 months)

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

RaySearch operates in a market with uneven order flows where individual orders can have a substantial impact on revenue recognition between the quarters and, because the company has limited (less than 10 percent) variable costs for license revenue, operating profit is affected by an amount that is nearly as high. For this reason, a longer perspective than a few quarters should be taken.

ORDER INTAKE

In the fourth quarter of 2024, order intake amounted to SEK 305.0 M (317.7), a decrease by 4.0 percent year-on-year. License order intake amounted to SEK 159.2 M (160.1), a decrease of 0.6 percent, while order intake for support was SEK 104.5 M (110.2), a decrease of 5.2 percent.

For the full-year 2024, order intake amounted to SEK 1,087.2 M (1,004.2), an increase of 8.3 percent compared to the same period last year. Order intake of licenses amounted to SEK 523.3 M (461.7), an increase of 13.3 percent, while order intake for support amounted to SEK 395.5 M (390.8), an increase of 1.2 percent.

ORDER BACKLOG

At December 31 2024, the total order backlog was SEK 1,813.2 M (1,864.4), of which SEK 551.8 M is expected to generate revenue over the next 12 months. The remaining amount in the order backlog mainly pertains to support commitments that are primarily expected to generate revenue during a subsequent four-year period.

LICENSE REVENUE & SUPPORT REVENUE (SEK M, rolling 12 months)

As of January 1, 2024, the company has implemented a refined cost center classification, which has affected certain operating costs which were previously categorized as selling expenses but are now reported as administrative expenses or research and development costs. The changes is represented in the table below.

During the fourth quarter of 2024, operating expenses increased to SEK 235.0 M (222.7). The increase is mainly due to increased personnel costs as the number of employees has increased, and also due to increased depreciation of capitalized development expenses.

1 2024 operating expenses presented according to the 2023 categorization.

Capitalization of development costs

In 2024, RaySearch continued to invest in both existing products and future products.

During the full-year 2024, the total research and development costs amounted to SEK 279.4 M (250.2) an increase by 11.7 percent which is explained by a higher number of employees. Capitalized development costs amounted to SEK 197.3 M (185.0) for the full-year 2024, which is an increase of 6.6 percent compared to the same period last year. Accordingly, capitalized development costs amounted to 70.6 percent (74.2) of the total research and development costs for the full-year 2024.

Amortization of capitalized development costs amounted to SEK 187.2 M (172.6) for the full-year 2024, which is an increase of 8.5 percent compared to the same period last year. This increase is attributable to the fact that some development projects were capitalized during 2023, which resulted in increased depreciation for the full-year 2024 compared to the same period last year.

Total research and development costs (after adjustments for capitalization and amortization of development costs) amounted to SEK 269.4 M (237.7) during the full- year 2024, an increase of 13.3 percent compared to the same period last year.

As of December 31, 206 (200) employees worked on research and development, which corresponds to 50 (52) percent of the total number of employees.

Depreciations

The total depreciation for the full year 2024 amounted to SEK 297.5 M (285.2), of which the depreciation on intangible fixed assets amounted to SEK 187.4 M (172.8) and the depreciation on tangible fixed assets amounted to SEK 110.1 M (112.4).

OPERATING PROFIT

During the fourth quarter of 2024, the operating profit increased to SEK 73.6 M (44.4), which is primarily a result of the relatively higher turnover and corresponds to an operating margin of 22.8 (14.8) percent.

The net of exchange rate gains and losses during the fourth quarter amounted to SEK 8.8 M (-3.7) and arises when large parts of the group's receivables are in US dollars and euros. The adjusted operating profit (i.e. the operating profit adjusted for the effects of the net currency) had amounted to SEK 64.8 M (48.1) during the fourth quarter.

During the full-year 2024 the operating profit increased to SEK 260.5 M (114.9), which corresponds to an operating margin of 21.9 (11.2) percent.

The tax cost for the fourth quarter amounted to SEK -17.4 M (-12.3), which corresponds to an effective tax rate of 22.5 (28.0) percent. For the full-year 2024, the tax cost amounted to SEK -59.4 M (-28.5), which corresponds to an effective tax rate of 22.6 (25.9) percent. The tax cost for 2023 included a, in comparison, large part of non deductible expenses which explains the decreased effective tax rate in 2024.

For the fourth quarter, the profit after tax amounted to SEK 60.0M (31.5) and the profit per share to SEK 1.75 (0.92). For the full-year 2024, the profit after tax amounted to SEK 203.5 M (81.6) and earnings per share to SEK 5.94 (2.38).

CASH FLOW AND LIQUIDITY

In the fourth quarter of 2024, cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 102.9 M (115.8). Despite an increased profit the cash flow from operating activities have decreased which is explained by a decrease in the bad debt reserve, unrealised currency losses and a negative cash flow from changes in operating liabilities related to contractual debts.

In the full-year 2024, cash flow from operating activities was SEK 485.2 M (455.9). The increase, despite a decrease in operating capital is an effect of a significantly improved result before tax for the period.

In the fourth quarter, cash flow from investing activities was SEK -60.8M (-64.6). Investments in intangible fixed assets amounted to SEK -56.2 M (-56.2) and mainly comprised capitalized development costs for the company's products – RayStation, RayCare, RayCommand and RayIntelligence. Investments in tangible fixed assets amounted to SEK -4.6 M (-8.4) and is attributable to investments in IT equipment. In the full-year 2024, cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -217.5 M (-209.3).

In the fourth quarter of 2024, cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK -18.6 M (-5.7) and consists of amortization of lease liabilities. The corresponding figure for the full year 2024 amounted to SEK -159.8 M (-56.3) and consists of amortization of leasing debts of SEK -91.2 M (-56.3) and a dividend paid to the company's shareholders of SEK -68.6 M (0).

Cash flow for the period was SEK 23.6 M (45.5) in the fourth quarter, and SEK 107.9 M (190.3) for the full-year 2024.

As of December 31, 2024, consolidated cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 462.7 M compared to SEK 343.7 M as of December 31, 2023.

FINANCIAL POSITION

As of December 31, 2024, RaySearch's total assets amounted to SEK 2,091.2 M compared to SEK 1,952.7 M as of December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2024, the equity/assets ratio was 41.9 percent compared to 37.7 percent at fiscal year-end 2023.

The company's interest-bearing liabilities, which only consist of lease liabilities reported in accordance with IFRS 16, amounted to SEK 471.9 M as of December 31, 2024, compared to SEK 529.4 M as of December 31, 2023.

As of December 31, the Group's net debt amounted to SEK 9.2 M compared to SEK 185.7 M as of December 31, 2028, a reduction that is mainly due to an increase in cash and cash equivalents and lower leasing debt compared to year-end 2023.

EMPLOYEES

For the full-year 2024, the average number of employees in the Group was 408 (376). At the end of the fourth quarter, the Group had 416 employees (388), of whom 308 (281) were based in Sweden, and 108 (108) in foreign subsidiaries.

THE COMPANY'S SHARE AND SHARE OWNERSHIP

As of December 31, 2024, the total number of registered shares in RaySearch was 34,282,773, of which 7,654,975 were Class A and 26,627,798 Class B shares. The quotient value is SEK 0,50 and the company's share capital amounts to SEK 17,141,386.50. Holders of Class A shares are entitled to 10 votes per share, and holders of Class B shares are entitled to one vote per share, at general meetings. As of December 31, 2024, the total number of votes in RaySearch was 103,177,548.

As of December 31, 2024, the total number of shareholders in RaySearch was 9,900 according to Euroclear, and the largest shareholders are shown in the table below.

PARENT COMPANY

RaySearch Laboratories AB (publ) is the Parent Company of the RaySearch Group. Since the Parent Company's operations are consistent with the Group's operations in all material respects, the comments for the Group are also largely relevant for the Parent Company.

Differences in profitability between the Parent Company and the Group are attributable to the Parent Company accounting for a relatively high proportion of operating expenses, and to the capitalization of development costs being recognized in the Group but not in the Parent Company. The Parent Company was also not affected by the changes pertaining to lease recognition under IFRS 16, and instead continues to recognize lease payments as operating lease payments. This reduces operating profit compared with if IFRS 16 had been applied.

The Parent Company's current receivables mainly comprise receivables from Group companies and external customers.

NOTES, GROUP

NOTE 1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The accounting policies applied are consistent with those described in the 2023 Annual Report for RaySearch Laboratories AB (publ), which is available at raysearchlabs.com. RaySearch Laboratories AB (publ) is the Parent Company of the RaySearch Group.

The Parent Company applies the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. The Parent Company's operations are consistent with the Group's operations in all material aspects. Differences in profitability between the Parent Company and the Group are attributable to the Parent Company accounting for a relatively high proportion of operating expenses and to the capitalization of development costs being recognized in the Group but not in the Parent Company. The Parent Company's current receivables mainly comprise receivables from Group companies and external customers.

NOTE 2 ESTIMATES

Preparation of the interim report requires the company management to make estimates that affect the carrying amounts. The actual outcome could deviate from these estimates. The critical sources of uncertainty in the estimates are the same as presented in the most recent Annual Report.

NOTE 3 REVENUES FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

RaySearch conducts sales of goods and services in various regions. Revenue from sales of licenses and hardware is recognized in profit or loss at a point in time, while revenue from sales of training and support is recognized over time.

NOTE 4 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

RaySearch's financial assets and liabilities comprise billed and unbilled receivables, cash and cash equivalents, accrued expenses, accounts payable, bank loans and lease liabilities. Long-term receivables and lease liabilities are discounted, while other financial assets and liabilities have short maturities. Accordingly, the fair values of all financial instruments are deemed to correspond approximately to their carrying amounts.

The provision for expected credit losses is a weighted assessment of payment history, reports from external credit rating agencies and other customer-specific information. At the end of December 2024, the credit loss provision amounted to SEK 9.4 M (37.4), corresponding to 2.0 percent (8.4) of total customer receivables. The reduction is mainly explained by the fact that the American subsidiary during the fourth quarter derecognized a number of realized credit losses which were reserved in earlier periods. Furthermore, the general reserve for expected credit losses have been reduced from 2 to 1 percent.

NOTE 5 CURRENCY EFFECTS

The company's net sales and earnings are impacted by USD and EUR to SEK exchange rates, since most sales are invoiced in USD and EUR, while most costs are denominated in SEK. Based on the year's structure for revenue, cost and currency (transaction

exposure), a general change of 10 percentage in the SEK to USD exchange rate would impact the consolidated operating profit by approximately +/- SEK 10.6 M in the fourth quarter of 2024, while a corresponding change in the SEK to EUR exchange rate would impact the consolidated operating profit by approximately +/- SEK 7.0 M.

Corresponding for the full-year 2024, a general change of 10 percentage in the SEK to USD exchange rate would impact the consolidated operating profit by approximately +/- SEK 25.4 M, while a corresponding change in the SEK to EUR exchange rate would impact the consolidated operating profit by +/- SEK 31.8 M.

The Group follows the financial policy established by the Board of Directors; whereby exchange-rate fluctuations are not hedged.

NOTE 6 RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

There were no transactions between RaySearch and related parties with any material impact on the company's position and earnings during the period.

DEFINITIONS OF KEY RATIOS

The interim report refers to a number of non-IFRS financial measures that are used to provide investors and company management with additional information to assess the company's operations. The various non-IFRS measures used to complement the IFRS financial statements are

described below. The calculation of the IFRS measures can be found on the company's website raysearchlabs.com.

Non-IFRS measures Definition Reason for using the measure
Adjusted operating profit Calculated as operating profit less other operating income/expenses. Adjusted operating profit provides an overall picture of the total generation of
earnings in core operating activities.
Capital employed Balance sheet decreased by non interest bearing debt and deffered tax liabilities. This measures shows how much capital that is used in the business and is
thereby the only component that measues the return from the business.
Change in sales The change in net sales compared with the year-earlier period expressed as a percent
age.
The measure is used to track the performance of the company's operations
between periods.
Change in sales at unchanged cur
rencies
Change in sales at unchanged exchange rates. i.e. excluding currency effects. This measure is used to monitor underlying change in sales driven by alterations
in volume. pricing and mix for comparable units between different periods.
Debt/equity ratio Net debt in relation to equity. The measure shows financial risk and is used by management to monitor the
Group's indebtedness.
EBITDA Operating profit before financial items. tax. depreciation/amortization and impairment. The measurement is a way to evaluate the result without taking into consider
ation financial decisions or taxes.
Equity/assets ratio Equity expressed as a percentage of total assets at the end of the period. This is a standard measure to show financial risk. and is expressed as the per
centage of the total restricted equity financed by the owners.
Equity per share Equity divided by number of shares at the end of the period. The measurement shows the return generated on the owners' invested capital
per share.
Gross profit Net sales minus cost of goods sold. Gross profit is used to measure the margin before sales. research. development
and administrative expenses
Interest bearing debt Debt with an interest bearing component Shows the actiual interest bearing debt burden.
Net debt Interest-bearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents This measure shows the Group's total indebtedness
Net debt/EBITDA and interest-bearing current and long-term receivables A relevant measure from a credit perspective that shows the company's ability
to handle its debt.
Operating costs Net debt at the end of the period in relation to operating profit before depreciation and
amortization over the past 12-month period.
Operating costs gives an overall view of costs tied to the operating business and
is an important internal measure which management can have a great impact on.
Operating margin Consists of sales costs, administration costs and research and development costs that
are part of the operating business. In former reports cogs and other income and other
costs were also included.
Together with sales growth the operating margin is a key element for monitoring
value creation.
Operating profit/loss Operating profit expressed as a percentage of net sales. Operating profit/loss provides an overall picture of the total generation of earn
ings in operating activities.
Order backlog Calculated as profit for the period before financial items and tax. The order backlog shows the value of orders already booked by RaySearch that
will be converted to revenue in the future.
Order intake The value of orders at the end of the period that the company has yet to deliver and recog
nize as revenue. meaning remaining performance obligations.
Order intake is an indicator of future revenue and thus a key figure for the man
agement of RaySearch's operations.
P/E ratio The value (transaction price) of all orders received and changes to existing orders during
the current period.
Shows from an ownership perspective how the market values the share in rela
tion to profit after tax.
Return on capital employed Share price at the end of the period divided by profit per share. A central metric for assessing the return on all capital invested in the business.
Return on equity Operating profit plus financial income in percentage of average balance sheet items
excluding non-interest bearing debt.
Shows the return generated on the owners' invested capital from a shareholder
perspective.
Rolling 12 months' sales. operating
profit or other results
Calculated as profit/loss for the period as a percentage of average equity. Average equity
is calculated as the sum of equity at the end of the period plus equity at the end of the
year-earlier period. divided by two.
The measure is used to clearly illustrate the trends for sales. operating profit and
other results. which is relevant because RaySearch's revenue is subject to
monthly variations.
Working capital Sales. operating profit or other results measured over the past 12-month period. This measure shows how much working capital is tied up in operations and can be
shown in relation to net sales to demonstrate the efficiency with which working capi
tal has been used.
Working capital Working capital is comprised by inventories, operating receivables and operating liabili
ties. It is obtained from the statement of financial position. Operating receivables com
prise accounts receivable. other current/long-term receivables and non-interest bearing

VISION AND MISSION

The company's vision is a world where cancer is conquered and RaySearch's mission is to provide innovative software to continuously improve cancer treatment.

STRATEGY

A radiation therapy center essentially needs two software platforms for its operations: a treatment planning system and an information system. With RayStation and RayCare, RaySearch will strengthen its position and continue to grow with high profitability. The company's strategy is based on a strong focus on innovative software development with leading functionality, support for efficient workflows – including via digitization and automation with machine learning – broad support for a wide range of treatment modes and radiation therapy devices, close collaboration with world leading cancer centers and industrial partners and extensive investment in research and development.

BUSINESS MODEL

RaySearch's main revenue is generated by customers paying an initial license fee for the right to use RaySearch's software and an annually recurring service fee for access to updates and support. All software systems are developed at RaySearch's head office in Stockholm and distributed and supported by the company's global marketing organization.
