Stable result and improved margin in the Service Business

First quarter

KOMMENTAR FRÅN VD

Our operational earnings for the quarter amounted to SEK 344 M, with a margin of 3.5 per cent – slightly higher results compared to the previous year. The result for the Service Business amounted to SEK 310 M, which was SEK 29 M higher than the previous year. The result for the Car Business amounted to SEK 57 M, which is SEK 19 M lower than the previous year.

Western Europe reported higher operational earnings of SEK 14 M with a strong margin of 5.4 per cent, Norway reported higher results of SEK 27 M, while Sweden reported lower results of SEK 29 M attributable to the Car Business. Underlying order intake for the quarter was 31 per cent higher than the previous year, and the underlying order backlog was around 3,000 cars more than at the start of the year.

Increased global uncertainty

The whole world is facing challenges with political and macroeconomic turbulence, and the recent trade tariffs are raising concerns for the future. Bilia operates in Sweden, Norway, Belgium and Luxembourg and we are not as yet directly affected by increased tariffs.

In these uncertain times, our primary focus is to work on efficiency and profitability, especially in our Service Business where we can see opportunities for continued growth in profits. In the first quarter, the Service Business generated 81 per cent of the Group's earnings and the margin improved to 12.2 per cent compared to 11.9 per cent the previous year.

Our MobiliaCare business is part of our circular business model, focusing on repair, fix and reuse. In this area, efforts are progressing to expand, develop and diversify shared services for all car brands. In 2024, for example, we established three new stand-alone workshops for glass replacement and repair, and we plan to establish several more in 2025.

Bilia family grows with two new car brands in Sweden

During the first quarter, we began selling new Polestar cars at three facilities in Sweden. We also signed an agreement with Lynk & Co Sales Sweden AB to become a full-service partner for sales and servicing of new cars in Sweden. We will initially offer sales of cars from Lynk & Co at five facilities in Sweden. We will continue offering service and repair at selected authorised Volvo workshops. These new car brands bring us synergies, while complementing our range of quality plug-in hybrids and electric cars

for our customers. We currently work with around 20 attractive car brands.

An unpredictable future car market

During the first quarter, we saw greater interest in buying a car among private individuals, driven by lower interest rates and attractive promotions across our brands. Demand from business customers remained stable with no signs of a slowdown. Underlying new car orders were 31 per cent higher than in the previous year, although still from relatively low levels. Demand for used cars was split, with stable demand for hybrid and fossil-fuel cars, but lower demand for electric cars.

It is hard to predict the impact on demand for new cars in the coming quarters given the generally unstable business climate at the moment, but we believe our customers will continue to service and repair their cars in the future. Even in uncertain times, there are opportunities that we want to capitalise on through wise long-term decisions, hard work and a stable financial position.

A sustainable growth strategy

We aim to generate annual growth above 5 per cent over a business cycle. Average growth over the past five years has been 6 per cent, and between 2012 and 2024 our turnover has more than doubled from SEK 17.7 Bn to SEK 39.2 Bn, while the number of employees has increased almost 50 per cent. During the period, we grew as much organically as through acquisitions.

Growth in existing businesses

Our ongoing efforts to improve and develop the existing business ensure that we can grow organically in the best way possible, while maintaining or improving profitability. We are continuing to work on our MobiliaCare operational area, which focuses on products and services that are common to all car brands.

Growth through acquisitions

Bilia has a broad and well-established base as regards car brands, service business and geographical presence. Over the past decade we have made some 45 acquisitions, which has entailed expansion into new countries, new car brands and new service areas. In light of the ongoing consolidation in the industry, we see good opportunities to create continued growth through acquisitions in areas of strategic importance to us. We want to grow in Sweden, Norway, Luxembourg and Belgium, but other European countries may also be of interest should the right kind of opportunity arise. Our aim is also to grow the Service Business by making acquisitions in existing and new areas of operation. Well-planned, strategically suitable acquisitions contribute to organic growth through our focus on efficiency and improvement, especially within the Service Business.

Our target is to grow the turnover and profitability of our Service Business. Since 2014 the turnover for the year has more than doubled, while the operational earnings has more than tripled. The margin has during the same period increased from 9.0 per cent to 12.2 per cent. The lower margin compared to previous years is primarily explained by somewhat lower profitability in new operations, which includes both acquired operations and newly started operations. We work continuously to improve the profitability of our Service Business. Our Business Excellence team together with our team within the Service Business identify the most effective processes and then implements these at the facilities where there is improvement potential as well as at our newly started and newly acquired businesses.

Turnover and earnings

First quarter 2025

The Car Business's deliveries of new cars, adjusted for acquired and discontinued operations, were 2 per cent higher during the quarter compared with the previous year.

The Car Business's deliveries of used cars, adjusted for acquired operations, were 8 per cent higher during the quarter compared with the previous year. The higher level of used car deliveries was mainly attributable to Sweden and Norway.

Sustainability

Sustainability issues are becoming an increasingly integral part of the automotive industry and of our own operations. Sustainability, and the climate issue in particular, are seen as important challenges that the industry must meet in order to ensure its long-term survival. These challenges are regulated by international laws and objectives, and are also expected and demanded by business partners and customers.

Circular business model

We help extend the life of a car through maintenance and repair at our service and damage centres. By selling used cars and offering rental cars to customers who use their cars on a limited basis, we help to maximise value, i.e. to ensure that cars

are used as efficiently and for as long as possible. We contribute to viewing waste as a resource by recovering materials at our five car dismantling centres in Sweden and Norway when the car is no longer in use. The parts that are not reused in our workshops are recycled by our waste contractors. We contribute to a holistic approach by working with different partners in our value chain; this includes participating in research projects.

A more sustainable value chain

Bilia is part of a value chain, and we exert an influence primarily by choosing car brands with care, but also by requiring all suppliers to follow our Supplier Code of Conduct. In our offering to customers, we contribute to a sustainable value chain for example through our circular business model, our focus on renewable energy, and our systematic work environment efforts for mental and physical health. When it comes to using a car, we work with needs analyses to find the most suitable car based on the customer's circumstances. We offer a wide range of cars with different fuels, and inform customers about the importance of service, repair and dismantling.

Our activities during the quarter for environmental objectives

Examples of activities include continued work on preparing a climate strategy, developing a communication plan on

how customers can reduce their climate impact, and starting up a project on waste management in Sweden.

Our activities during the quarter for social sustainability

Examples of activities include conducting employee performance appraisals, measuring new employees' perceptions of their introduction to their workplace, and initiating training in crisis planning.

Our activities during the quarter for corporate responsibility

Examples of activities include the revision of national policies into Group-wide policies, and system implementation for future CSRD reporting.

Risks and opportunities

Risks and risk takings are a natural part of Bilia's business operations. A good understanding of the risks together with an efficient way of identifying, evaluating and managing the risks are important for Bilia's short-term and long-term success. Bilia has a formal yearly process at Group level to identify, plan and reduce identified risks in the business. Please refer to the annual report for a description of the risks and Bilia's risk management.

With the exception of the current uncertainty regarding the introduction of trade tariffs between different countries, events that have transpired in the wider world since publication of the annual report are not deemed to entail any new material risks or changes in working methods compared with the description in the annual report for 2024. It is not possible to assess the impact of

new trade tariffs on Bilia's future operations, but future negative impact cannot be ruled out.

Seasonal variations and number of working days

Bilia's business and operating profit are affected by seasonal variations to a limited extent. The number of working days for the reporting periods is affected by when national holidays fall in different years. Business and operating profit in mainly the Service Business, but also the Car Business, are affected by the number of working days.

Note 1 Accounting principles

Tilläggsupplysningar

This interim report has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) IAS 34 and applicable provisions of the Annual Accounts Act. The interim report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and RFR2. The same accounting policies and calculation methods have been applied for the Group and the Parent Company as in the most recent Annual Report except for rental cars and company cars leased under financial leasing agreements. These are classified as Right-of-use assets from 2025 onwards, compared to previously as Leased vehicles and Other tangible assets, respectively. The comparison periods have been restated.

IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2027. The impact of the application of the new standard on Bilia's financial statements

is currently being assessed. Otherwise, no new or amended standards that have not yet entered into force are expected to have any material effect on the Group's financial statements.

Disclosures in accordance with IAS 34, paragraph 16 A, are made not only in the financial statements and related notes, but also in other parts of this interim report.

Figures in the interim report are rounded, which is why notes and tables may not add up.

Note 2 Financial instruments

Valuation principles and classifications of Bilia's financial instruments as described in the annual report for 2024 have been applied consistently during the reporting period.

To hedge electricity costs, Bilia has decided to use electricity derivatives to even out price variations on the electricity market. Bilia hedges gradually up to five years and builds up the volume of electricity contracts for each delivery date. The hedges meet the requirements for effectiveness, which means that the changes in value are recognised in other comprehensive

income. The forward agreements used to hedge contracted purchases of electricity are classified as cash flow hedges and amounted to a liability of SEK 9 M.

Bilia's financial instruments in the form of currency derivatives are valued at fair value over the statement of income and are valued according to valuation level 2. The value of the currency derivatives was not material and did not constitute a significant item in the statement of financial position for the Group. Valuation of the currency derivatives at fair value has

resulted in an income of SEK 5 M, which was matched by a cost for the revaluation of assets in foreign currency. The effect on the Group's result was therefore SEK 0 M.

Bilia's financial instruments valued at fair value over equity consist of put/call options issued in connection with acquisitions and are valued at fair value based on future exercise price according to valuation level 3. The option is reported as provisions in the statement of financial position and amounted to SEK 51 M.

Note 3 Reconciliation of operational earnings with operating profit

Amortisation and impairment losses of surplus values for the full year 2024 include a write-down amounting to SEK 15 M relating to a smaller tyre operation i Sweden.

Definitions and performance measures

Bilia applies guidelines from ESMA (European Securities and Markets Authority) concerning alternative performance measures (APMs). Even though these performance measures are not defined or specified by IFRSs, Bilia believes that they provide valuable information to investors and Bilia's management as a complement to IFRSs for assessing Bilia's performance.

Acquisition-related costs and value adjustments

Pertains to costs for legal consultants and other external costs associated directly with an acquisition, and value adjustments regarding acquired inventory assets, which are depreciated over the turnover rate of the asset.

Amortisation of surplus values

Occurs in connection with acquisitions of operations and is recognised under intangible assets.

Capital employed

Balance sheet total less non-interest-bearing liabilities and provisions as well as deferred tax liabilities.

Comparable operations

Financial information and number of units that are adjusted for operations that have been acquired or disposed of during one of the periods.

Deliveries

Cars that have been physically turned over to the customer and invoiced and are included in reported net turnover.

EBITDA

Operational earnings plus total depreciation/amortisation less amortisation of surplus values and depreciation of leased vehicles with repurchase agreements.

Equity/assets ratio

Equity in relation to balance sheet total.

Excluding IFRS 16

Information in accordance with accounting standards before the introduction of IFRS 16 Leases.

Result from sale of operation

Difference between purchase consideration and the operation's consolidated carrying amount, less selling costs.

Growth

Increase or decrease of net turnover in relation to the preceding year.

Liquidity

Unutilised credit with Nordea and DNB and cash and cash equivalents.

Net debt

Net debt consists of interest-bearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents, interest-bearing current and longterm receivables, interests in associated companies and leased vehicles. Performance measures that include interest-bearing liabilities are calculated excluding the effect of transaction costs and premium calculated according to the effective interest method.

Operating cash flow

Cash flow from operating activities plus investments in and disposals of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment.

Operating margin

Operating profit in relation to net turnover.

Operational earnings

Operating profit, excluding revenues and costs that affect comparability and excluding result from interests in joint ventures. Revenues and costs that affect comparability between accounting periods and/or operating segments include, but are not limited to, acquisition-related expenses, value adjustments, restructurings and amortisation of surplus values. For the business areas operational earnings is the only result measurement in use.

Operational margin

Operational earnings in relation to net turnover. For the business areas the operational margin is called "Margin".

Order backlog

New cars ordered by the customer but not yet delivered.

Organic growth

Net turnover is adjusted for operations that have been acquired or disposed of during one of the periods. Adjustment is also made for exchange rate differences and for calendar effect.

Return on capital employed

Operating profit plus financial income in relation to average capital employed.

Return on equity

Net profit for the year in relation to average equity.

Service subscriptions

Service subscriptions where customers have or are thought to have their servicing done at a Bilia facility.

Structural costs

Costs that significantly alter the thrust and/or scope of the operations. Examples of structural costs may be costs for reducing the number of employees and costs for vacating a leased facility before the expiration of the lease.
