Order Intake and Revenue

CEO Comments

The demand for Surface Guided Radiation Therapy (SGRT) continues to be strong, which is demonstrated by the best-ever revenue of 111 MSEK in Q3 and an order intake of 169 MSEK.

With an EBIT of 19 MSEK, our focus on profitable growth is starting to show result. The large Spanish Proton order in the quarter of 32 MSEK from IBA, is yet another confirmation of our SGRT leadership in Proton therapy treatments. Proton, or particle therapy, is in the forefront of precise cancer therapy.

Despite challenging macro economics, the revenue increased 33 percent compared to third quarter last year and order intake had an impressive growth of 108 percent, which is strong even with the soft comparison from the same quarter last year. Our order backlog is now 751 MSEK. The underlying profitability remains stable, with a gross margin of 65 percent. We are continuing our journey towards profitable growth, with an EBIT in the quarter of 19 MSEK and the year-to-date comparison shows a 48 percent improvement of the EBIT margin compared to same period last year. We still have work to do to improve cash flow and we work on all fronts – short term with cash collection and long term on updating contracts terms and educating our sales force. Cash flow from operating activities for the quarter is 17 MSEK.

Our ambition to grow Services is demonstrated by a significant increase in the number of customers with active service contracts and the order intake for Services more than doubled in the quarter. This ensures a strong commitment to provide first-class services as well as an increase in recurring revenue.

Strong quarter for EMEA

EMEA had a strong quarter overall. The uptake for SGRT continues to be high. The 16 MSEK expansion order from North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, displays trust in C-RAD and our technology. The 10 MSEK order from Katholisches Klinikum Bochum, Germany, is yet another example of how our technology plays an important role, not only for breast cancer, but also advanced cancer therapy including stereotactic radiation.

We ended the quarter on a high note, with a significant milestone in the field of particle therapy (proton) and the order from market leader IBA includes systems for multiple proton centers in Spain, with a total value of 32 MSEK, part of a public tender.

When a tumour grows in the brain, lung, eye, head and neck, or other locations radiation can pose a risk to critical tissue nearby. Particle therapy targets radiation of the tumour, leaving the areas around unharmed. The technology has been used clinically for more than 60 years and is effective for complex cancer cases as well as for young children and infants. I am proud to say that C-RAD is the market leader in SGRT for Particle Therapy.

Services attachment rate in Americas all-time high

Americas is starting to pick up again after a slow second quarter. I am pleased to see the important US West Coast gaining traction. Due to active and targeted sales and marketing activities, the interest in C-RAD's technology is increasing with US Cancer Centres. Americas services attachment rate reached an all-time high during the third quarter, firmly establishing the US as the leading region regarding service contracts for the installed base.

High activity level in APAC

The APAC region continue to have a high level of activity. We are starting to gain traction in India, with new orders to prominent corporate hospitals and medical colleges and are now present in most regions. The Chinese market is getting back from pre-covid levels, at the same time we are experiencing some slowdowns in the purchasing pattern. During the third quarter the first service contracts in China came into effect. We are starting from a low level, but Services is an excellent area for future for growth in the Chinese market.

This year, the North American MedTech tradeshow ASTRO (American Society for Radiation Oncology), took place in San Diego, USA. C-RAD had busy days, our live demo was in constant demand. Additional interest was created by the VitalHold™ breast package on the Radixact system, which includes our technology.

Integrated with our industrial partners

Interoperability is key for C-RAD and we are integrated with Elekta, Varian and Accuray as well as all key Proton suppliers. C-RAD's research and development teams have achieved significant milestones in the past quarter, and I'm delighted to have announced the launch of our latest software release, version 6.5. The release comes with improved usability for the clinical staff, accuracy, and the introduction of new innovative features thanks to the seamless integration with our industrial partners.

I would like to take a moment to reflect on my first nine months as CEO. I am pleased to have a passionate and experienced leadership team, strengthened by a new Global Marketing Director and a VP Sales EMEA. Together, we are building an empowered and an even stronger organisation. With market leading products and services, we can capture the demand for our technology and create a solid base for profitable growth. The untapped potential in key markets around the world is addressed step by step. Even if we see many markets rapidly approaching SGRT becoming standard of care, we are only in the beginning. In addition, we are starting to deliver on the priority to grow services.

Together, our hardworking customers, knowledgeable partners and a dedicated C-RAD team are able to secure the precise targeting of the tumour while minimizing radiation exposure to healthy tissues, thus safeguarding the overall well-being of patients. I think there is a good reason for all stakeholders to feel proud of being part of this immensely important work.

Financial development

Third quarter

Order intake

Order intake for the third quarter amounted to 168.6 (80.9) MSEK, a growth of 108 percent. In constant currencies, order intake increased 87 percent compared with the same quarter of 2022.

Order intake in EMEA grew by 222 percent to 99.6 MSEK. EMEA had a strong quarter and among others received three major orders: 32 MSEK proton therapy order to IBA and two orders to German customers of 16 MSEK and 10 MSEK.

Americas had a weak order intake in the second quarter. However, in this quarter the order intake recovered and increased compared to last year with 22 percent, to 25.6 MSEK.

In APAC, order intake increased 50 percent to 43.4 MSEK.

By category, the order intake for Products amounted to 119.8 MSEK in the quarter, an increase of 79 percent compared to the same period last year. The order intake for Services grew 244 percent to 48.8 MSEK.

Revenues

Revenues grew 33 percent to 111.2 (83.5) MSEK in the third quarter. In constant currencies, the growth was 16 percent.

Revenues grew in all three regions. Revenues in EMEA increased 35 percent to 54.2 (40.1) MSEK, revenues in the Americas increased 22 percent to 25.2 (20.7) MSEK and revenues in APAC increased 40 percent to 31.8 (22.7) MSEK. 83 percent of the revenues referred to Products and 17 percent to Services.

Year To Date

Order intake

For the full nine-month period, total order intake amounted to 376.0 (268.1) MSEK, an increase of 40 percent and 30 percent in constant currencies.

Order intake for Products increased 31 percent for the nine-month period, primarily as a result of the growth in the SGRT-market as well as C-RAD's strong position in the market. The order intake for Services increased 74 percent for the nine-month period compared with previous year. The continued rise in order intake for service contracts is a result of a very active work to increase the attachment rate and indicates customers' willingness to use C-RAD's complete range of solutions.

Revenue July – Sept Revenue January – Sept

Revenues

For the nine-month period, revenues amounted to 286.2 (202.5) MSEK, an increase of 41 percent and 28 percent in constant currencies.

Revenues for the nine-month period in EMEA increased 41 percent to 142.3 (100.6) MSEK, while revenues in the Americas increased 12 percent to 55.2 (49.5) MSEK. APAC revenues were 88.7 (52.5) MSEK, which was 68 percent higher than same period previous year.

Order backlog and order conversion rate

The order backlog represents orders that have been received but not delivered and invoiced. The backlog amounted to 751.3 (493.3) MSEK at the end of the quarter, an increase of 52 percent compared with same time last year. From the total order backlog, 428.6 (257.8) MSEK relates to products and 322.7 (235.5) MSEK relates to service contracts, with the order backlog for products increasing by 66 percent and the order backlog for service contracts increasing by 37 percent.

The weighted average delivery time for products recognized as revenue in the third quarter was nine months. The increase compared to previous quarter is due to deliveries during the current quarter related to orders recorded during end of 2020 and during 2021. The average delivery time for the full nine-month period was seven months. This is the time from the receipt of an order until delivery has been made, and thus revenue recognized. The average delivery time depends on several factors and varies between periods.

53.8 MSEK, representing 16 percent of the order backlog for Services, will be recognized as revenue within 12 months, as service contracts are recognized as revenue over the contract period. The service contracts can be up to eight years, while the most common contract period is three to five years.

Order Backlog

Seasonality

There is a seasonal pattern in C-RAD's operations. The second half of the year is usually the strongest period, both in terms of order intake and revenue. This is due to the fact that a large number of customers are hospitals and clinics, which have annual budgets aligned to the calendar year. Delivery capacity and periods of restricted access to hospitals may also bring additional volatility. As the larger part of C-RAD's cost base is fixed, fluctuations in revenue have a direct impact on the quarterly EBIT. Volatility in order intake between quarters and markets is to be expected in C-RAD's business. The gross profit can fluctuate between quarters. The gross profit is dependent on the product mix and the distribution between direct and indirect sales channels in our various markets.

Results

Gross profit

The gross profit margin was 65 (64) percent during the third quarter. For the full nine-month period, the gross profit margin was 64 (64) percent.

Other external expenses

Other external expenses for the quarter amounted to 22.8 (16.6) MSEK, which is in line with previous quarters during the year, and 68.4 (50.1) for the full nine-month period. The increase from last year is driven by different factors. We have an increased activity level in our R&Ddepartment, hence also the increased capitalized development costs. For some customer installations, we have utilized external resources. Within marketing and finance departments, temporary consultancies have been used to cover for vacancies. Last year, the cost level was still impacted by less travelling and less sales activities.

C-RAD has external expenses in foreign currencies, primarily USD and EUR. The first nine months of the year were impacted by currency exchange rate changes with 1.0 MSEK compared to last year, whereas the effect for the third quarter was 0.2 MSEK.

Personnel expenses

Personnel expenses for the quarter amounted to 28.9 (24.3) MSEK, which is in line with previous quarters during the year, and for the full nine-month period 87.6 (69.1). The increase in personnel expenses from last year is explained by the increased average number of employees, including higher variable pay compared to last year. We have replaced consultants in some departments with permanent employees.

C-RAD has personnel expenses in foreign currencies, primarily USD and EUR, and the weakening of the SEK has increased personnel expenses by 2.0 MSEK for the ninemonths period, of which 0.2 MSEK of this in the third quarter.

The average number of employees was 84 during the third quarter 2023, compared with 74 during the corresponding period in 2022. At the end of September 2023, the number of employees in the Group amounted to 84 (79).

Other operating income/expenses

The main composition of other operating income and expenses relates to fluctuations in exchange rates, and thus the revaluation of balance sheet items, as further described in note 2.

Capitalized development costs

Capitalizations during the quarter amounted to 4.3 (2.0) MSEK and are related to the continued development of our products. The increased capitalization compared to last year is due to more time being put into development in comparison with maintenance. During the quarter, costs related to the certification of our products and solutions have been capitalized. In addition, interoperability fees towards some of our customers have been capitalized during the quarter. Amortization of capitalized development costs amounted to 0.9 (0.9) MSEK during the quarter. For the full nine-month period, 10.9 (6.1) MSEK has been capitalized and 2.8 (2.6) MSEK has been amortized.

Total capitalized development costs amounted to 29.2 (17.9) MSEK at the end of the quarter.

EBIT and Net earnings

EBIT for the quarter amounted to 18.9 (14.6) MSEK, corresponding to a margin of 17.0 (17.5) percent. EBIT for the full nine-month period amounted to 32.7 (15.5) MSEK, corresponding to a margin of 11.4 (7.7) percent.

Net earnings amounted to 10.9 (7.1) MSEK for the quarter, corresponding to 0.32 (0.21) SEK per share. For the full nine-months of the year, Net earnings amounted to 19.6 (3.0) MSEK, corresponding to 0.58 (0.09) SEK per share.

The tax expense was 7.9 (7.2) MSEK for the quarter and 12.9 (12.2) MSEK for the full nine-month period. At the end of the quarter the deferred tax receivables were 0.6 (1.3) MSEK.

C-RAD is in process to overseeing our transfer price policy. This is expected to have a positive effect on the company's tax position for the full year 2023, i.e. a positive effect is expected in Q4 2023.

Cash flow and Net financial income

Cash collection continues to be a priority for management and the sales teams as we grow our business.

The strong EBIT and an improvement in the working capital, compared to previous quarters, laid the foundation to the positive cash flow in the quarter. As the revenues are increasing, it is natural that the accounts receivables are increasing as well.

The working capital changed during the quarter with -3.0 (-27.7) MSEK and -53.6 (-44.7) MSEK for the first nine months. The operational cash flow for the quarter amounted to 16.6 (-10.7) MSEK and for the first nine months the operational cash flow was -17.4 (-22.1) MSEK.

Investments also had an impact on cash flow of -5.2 (-2.0) MSEK during the quarter and -11.9 (-6.2) MSEK for the full nine-month period.

The total cash at the end of the period amounted to 89.8 (95.6) MSEK. In addition, the company has an unused credit facility of 20 MSEK.

Net financial income for the quarter amounted to 0.0 (-0.3) MSEK and -0.2 (-0.4) for the full nine-month period. The company has no external debt nor uses factoring, hence the negligible financial expense relating primarily to the use of letters of credit to secure payments from customers.

Other information

Legal disputes

C-RAD is involved in a legal dispute with a former employee.

The background to the dispute is a lawsuit that was filed against C-RAD in May 2020 by the former employee, claiming compensation for an invention made during his employment at C-RAD in 2009. C-RAD rejected the claim for compensation on the basis that the claim was excessive in light of the circumstances and that the employee was already compensated by his salary and other benefits. In July 2021 the Patent and Market Court ruled that no additional compensation should be given. In June 2023, the Patent and Market Court of Appeal did partly change the lower court's ruling and awarded the former employee 4.4 MSEK for the time period until end of 2019, and a 1% royalty on net sales from 2020 up until latest 2029, on products using the invention described in the patent applications US12/632526 or

PCT/SE2010/051338. The previous employee initially requested a royalty of 5%.

The former employee is ordered to partly pay C-RAD's legal costs in both the first and second instance of 1.3 MSEK.

In the verdict, the Patent and Market Court of Appeal granted permission to appeal the decision to the Supreme Court. Both C-RAD as well as the former employee have appealed the decision to the Supreme Court.

All legal expenses for the dispute are recognized as a cost when they arise.

Note 8.Alternative performance measures (APMs)

C-RAD AB presents certain financial measures in the interim report that are not defined in IFRS. It is C-RAD's opinion that these measures provide valuable supplementary information to investors and company management as they facilitate the evaluation of the company's performance. These measures shall not be considered a replacement for any financial measure as defined by IFRS.

Order intake

Order intake consists of the value of orders received in the reported periods.

Order backlog

Order backlog is the value of orders at the end of the reporting period, which the company has yet to deliver and recognize as revenue. The company reports on the order backlog both for products and services.

Gross profit and gross margin

Gross profit is the difference between net sales and cost of products sold and is presented on a separate line in the income statement. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales represents gross margin. The gross margin is used by management to review effects on the income statement from factors such as product mix and price development.

EBIT and EBIT (%)

This measure is presented in the income statement as C-RAD considers it to provide users of the financial statements with a better understanding of the Group's operating performance from a financial perspective. The EBIT (%) shows the earnings before interest and taxes as a percentage of net sales.

The information in this report is such that C-RAD is obliged to publish under the EU Market Abuse Regulation. The information was submitted for publication, through the agency of the contact persons set out below, on October 27, 2023 at 8:30 am.
