CEO comments

Solid start to 2025

The demand from mining customers was strong in the first quarter. The demand for equipment used in larger infrastructure projects, such as tunneling, was stable, whereas the demand for attachments used for construction work remained weak. Our order intake increased to MSEK 16 586 (14 162), corresponding to an organic growth of 10%. Our large equipment orders amounted to MSEK 600 (400).

Sequentially, compared to the previous quarter, orders received increased 6% organically.

Given the recent geopolitical developments and uncertainty around tariffs, I would like to emphasize that we have an agile, fast paced and global organization. We work on what we can control and adapt when conditions change. We are closely monitoring market developments and have already started to optimize logistics and distribution flows, leverage our global manufacturing footprint, explore alternative suppliers, as well as discuss potential pricing impact with customers.

In the near term, we expect underlying mining demand, both for equipment and aftermarket, to remain at a high level. The construction demand is, however, expected to remain weak.

Revenues and profitability

Our revenues amounted to MSEK 15 536 (14 143), corresponding to an organic growth of 3%. The operating profit, EBIT, increased 12% to MSEK 3 088 (2 760), and the adjusted EBIT increased by 7%. The adjusted operating margin was 19.9% (20.4). In addition to our continuous dedication to innovation, we remain focused on operational efficiency, cost control, and margin resilience across the Group.

Sequentially, the adjusted margin improved, driven by increased efficiency, both organically and in the acquired companies.

Cash flow

Our operating cash flow was MSEK 1 569 (1 778), supported by increased operating profit, but negatively impacted by build-up in working capital and currency. The cash conversion rate (rolling 12 months) was 100%.

Showcasing the future of construction at Bauma in Munich

During the first quarter, we prepared for Bauma 2025, the world's largest construction tradeshow, held in the beginning of April. At the tradeshow, we showcased many of our new, advanced products and solutions; from deconstruction and recycling to quarrying and tunneling. These include the EC 100 hydraulic breaker with new wear bushing system and the SmartROC T40 surface drill rig with a brand-new, highly ergonomic and safe cabin.

Q1 2025

Our largest contract ever

After the close of the first quarter, we were awarded the largest order contract in the history of Epiroc. We will deliver a fleet of fully autonomous and electric surface mining equipment to Fortescue.

Fortescue is an Australia based technology, energy and metals group, focused on accelerating the commercial decarbonization of the industry. The company, which is also one of the world's largest iron ore producers, has ordered a fleet of Epiroc blasthole drill rigs; the cable-electric Pit Viper 271 E and the battery-electric SmartROC D65 BE. The equipment will be used at the company's iron ore mines in the Pilbara region in Western Australia. The equipment order contract is valued at around MAUD 350 (SEK 2.2 billion) over five years. In addition, Epiroc will provide services and spare parts.

Many of the orders recently won include automation and electrification. I am proud and confident that we, with our innovative spirit at Epiroc, have created a leading position within these areas.

* Includes operating profit/loss from acquisitions and divestments and items affecting comparability (incl. change in provision for share-based long-term incentive programs).

Operating profit, EBIT, increased to MSEK 3 088 (2 760), including items affecting comparability of MSEK -11 (-127). These include a change in provision for the share-based long-term incentive programs of MSEK -11 (-2).

The adjusted operating margin, excluding items affecting comparability, decreased to 19.9% (20.4). It was supported by currency, while the organic contribution was negative, partly explained by a lower share of service revenues. The dilution from acquisitions was -1.0 percentage points.

Net financial items amounted to MSEK -207 (-116). Net interest increased to MSEK -187 (-128), explained by higher interest-bearing debt.

Profit before tax increased to MSEK 2 881 (2 644). Income tax expense amounted to MSEK -685 (-634). The effective tax rate was 23.8% (24.0). Profit for the period totaled MSEK 2 196 (2 010). Basic earnings per share were SEK 1.82 (1.66).

Return on capital employed was 20.3% (24.5), negatively impacted mainly by increased intangible assets, such as goodwill from acquisitions. The return on equity was 22.1% (24.9).

The average tenor of Epiroc's long-term debt was 4.5 years (4.8). The average interest duration was 19 months (25) and the average interest rate at the end of the quarter was 4.12% (4.80).

Cash flow

Operating cash flow

• Radlink provides mines with wireless data and voice communication networks and supporting infrastructure to surface and underground mines, vital to support mining automation. The company has approximately MSEK 1 330 in annual revenues and 415 employees. On April 2, 2025, Epiroc acquired the remaining shares of Radlink. Epiroc acquired a majority shareholding of Radlink, 53%, already in 2022, and now owns 100%. The business has been consolidated and reported within "Service" since 2022.

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.

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.

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 of 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.

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.
