Comments from the CEO

Sales continue to develop strongly. During the first quarter, which is seasonally our weakest quarter, we report continued good growth across the board, both in North America and in other markets. At the same time, our profitability is moving in the right direction as the negative effects on components and shipping are now behind us. We saw no significant residual COVID-19 effects during the quarter, either positive or negative. As of the second quarter, we face higher comparative revenue figures from the previous year, which may affect the organic growth rate. At the same time, variable costs are now at a normalized level. Overall, we are optimistic about both growth and profitability moving forward.

Sales growth, adjusted to local currency, amounted to 25 percent, which is historically very strong and well above our long-term targets. It was robust across all product and user groups. We saw particularly strong growth in diagnoses that affect younger people, such as autism – where our symbol communication solutions performed strongly. This trend was largely driven by our highly appreciated market-leading software TD Snap. Our customer offering is consistently competitive, especially through the product launches we carried out in the fall. At the same time, we continue to invest in product development to further strengthen our offering.

Gross margin climbed by two percentage points, to just over 66%; one important reason is that component and shipping costs have normalized. US Medicare's increase in the reimbursement level for our products by more than 9 percent will affect revenues gradually moving forward, with full impact expected later this year. In the first quarter last year, the pandemic continued to have an impact on costs through restrictions on activities such as recruitment, travel and customer meetings, while operations and their associated costs have now returned to normal levels.

We are very pleased with the way our acquisitions are developing. The innovations of last year's acquisition Acapela Group, which is active in synthetic voices, play a key role in the development of our customer offering. They have also had a significant impact on media, aimed at a wider audience. For example, the Voice of America TV channel highlighted Acapela's voice banking solution, my-own-voice, in a recent feature.

In North America, we have been relatively successful in managing the trend of people wanting to work from home more than before. We benefit from our business being characterized by a strong "why." Our employees are highly motivated because they make a real difference for users. This helps to create a strong sense of cohesion and corporate culture despite the physical distances. We also feel that it has gradually become easier to attract the right talent to our team, in part because of the attractiveness of our business, but also because of a tighter labor market in other industries.

In 2022, we dedicated considerable effort to putting in place the structures required for a standalone, listed company. This year, our main focus is on further developing and streamlining our operations to reach our users even better and thereby improve our ability to meet their communication needs. Educating the market about our potentially life-saving products is an important aspect and critical to deliver on our major growth and profitability opportunities. Gradually improved reimbursement systems are also important in the longer term. In Europe, we are now gradually seeing a growing understanding of the importance of assistive technology for users. We are convinced that this trend will continue.

Comments on the Group's performance

JANUARY - MARCH

Revenue

Group revenue increased 36% to SEK 335 million (246). Organic sales grew by 15%.

The underlying organic growth, mainly adjusted for certain positive effects of delivery and logistics delays in the comparative quarter, is estimated to have amounted to approximately 19 percent. As in the previous quarter, there was good growth in North America and other markets, as well as in all product and user groups. Currency movements had a positive impact of 11% on revenue and acquisitions contributed 9%.

Performance

Consolidated gross profit amounted to SEK 223 million (158), corresponding to a gross margin of 66% (64). The margin benefited from economies of scale due to increased sales, some price adjustments and lower freight costs.

Operating profit totaled SEK 21 million (17) and the operating margin was 6.3% (7.0).

Operating expenses grew organically by 14%. The comparative period had lower than usual costs due to the effects of the pandemic on the level of activity relating to travel, events, conferences, etc. The cost trend was thus influenced by the normalization of the activity level following the lifting of pandemic restrictions. Comparable units were also affected by salary increases and continued staff reinforcements mainly in the sales and marketing organization.

Research and development expenses had a negative impact on operating profit of SEK 11 million for the quarter compared with the corresponding quarter last year, mainly related to normalization of development costs as well as even higher depreciation costs because of new product launches. Investments relate to the development of proprietary products, the majority of which involve software and voice technology.

Financial items amounted to SEK -9 million (-6) and mainly consisted of interest on external loans. Profit before tax was SEK 12 million (11).

Tax for the year amounted to SEK -5 million (-1) , of which SEK -0 (1) million related to deferred tax.

Profit for the period was SEK 7 million (10). Basic and diluted earnings per share were SEK 0,07 SEK (0,09).

Currency effects

Higher exchange rates, primarily USD/SEK, had a positive impact on revenue of SEK +28 million and on operating profit of SEK 4 million compared with the corresponding quarter last year.

Cash flow, liquidity and financial position

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital amounted to SEK 44 million (36). Change in working capital amounted to SEK -0 million (-35).

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -26 million (-29), of which SEK -18 million (-19) was capitalization of R&D costs. Cash flow for the period was SEK -7 million (-32). During the quarter, an amortization of the credit facility of SEK 19 million was made.

At the end of the quarter, the Group had cash and cash equivalents of SEK 99 million (167). Consolidated net debt totaled SEK 505 million (440), including SEK 55 million (59) in IFRS 16 finance leases. Net debt in relation to the last twelve months EBITDA was 2.3.

In early October 2022, a new three-year financing agreement was signed with Swedbank. The credit facilities include the same financing framework as before, SEK 700 million, and are classified as social loans. This means that Tobii Dynavox qualifies as a company that con-tributes to the development of society through sustainable social initiatives. The total utilized part of the credit facility was SEK 553 million at the end of the period.

Organization

The number of employees converted to full-time equivalents at the period end was 582 (462).

Note 9. Acquisition

On April 1, 2022, Tobii Dynavox acquired the Irish company Obear Technologies Limited, operating under the name Safe Care Technologies. The company is a reselling partner to Tobii Dynavox and a leading supplier of assistive technology for communication in Ireland. The company had sales of approximately SEK 9 million, with an operating margin of approximately 10% for the financial year that ended June 30, 2021. The total purchase consideration for the acquired net assets was SEK 6 million. A cash payment of SEK 5.8 million was paid at the time of acquisition. The agreed con-tingent consideration is linked to future performance.

Safe Care Technologies was consolidated into the Tobii Dynavox Group as of April 1, 2022

The acquisition of the Belgian company Acapela Group, a global provider of voice synthesis and digital voices, was completed on April 29, 2022. The purchase consideration was SEK 101 million, including cash and liabilities, and was paid in cash and financed partly with own cash and partly through an existing revolving credit facility.

Tobii Dynavox and Acapela Group have been successful partners for many years. The merger will further deepen this relationship, providing great opportunities to develop solutions that enable our users to create their own voice identity and express themselves clearly, personally and effectively in the way that they want.

Acapela Group was included in the Group's accounts from April 29, 2022.

On June 23, Tobii Dynavox signed an agreement to acquire all business activities and assets of its reselling partner ASK in Denmark, effective July 1, 2022.

ASK is a supplier of assistive technology products and services to customers in Denmark, including municipalities, schools, communication centers, care centers and other institutions. Tobii Dynavox solutions comprise the majority of ASK's revenue of some DKK 6-9 million per year. The companies have had a long-standing partnership in the Danish market. The purchase consideration was DKK 5.2 million and was paid in cash on July 1, 2022.

As a result of these acquisitions, Tobii Dynavox expects to both strengthen its product offering and come closer to users in the countries where these acquisitions are active, with the hope of giving more people a voice. Tobii Dynavox also expects to reduce costs through synergies.

The following tables summarize the purchase consideration paid and the preliminary fair value of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed for the acquisitions described above. The fair value of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed is provisional pending final valuation.
