CEO comments

High demand

The demand remained high and orders received increased 21% to MSEK 13 377. Several large equipment orders were won, of which many included battery-electric and automation solutions. Also, the service business performed strongly. In total, the organic order growth was 6%. Excluding Russia, the organic order growth was 18%.

We expect that the underlying demand, both for equipment and aftermarket, will remain at a high level in the near term.

Agility and resilience

The war in Ukraine is truly horrifying and we continue to take measures to protect our colleagues and manage the complex situation in Ukraine and Russia. See also page 6.

We also continue to face higher input costs and supply-chain challenges. However, our agile organization can adapt quickly to changes and challenges, and our large aftermarket business provides resilience.

Record revenues and adjusted margin

Our revenues increased 9% organically to a record MSEK 11 868. The adjusted operating profit increased 27% and reached MSEK 2 801. Items affecting comparability were MSEK -420, including a provision of MSEK -400 related to Russia. The adjusted operating margin improved to 23.6% (22.6).

Our operating cash flow increased to MSEK 1 462 (1 229), supported by higher operating profit, partly offset by build-up of working capital.

Best quarter ever for electrification

We offer market-leading solutions within automation, digitalization, and electrification and the second quarter was our best quarter ever for electrification.

We won several orders for battery-electric equipment, also for greenfield projects, as well as for battery retrofits and electrical infrastructure solutions. And, shortly a customer will be testing our first battery-electric surface drill rig. We are excited to help our customers reach their sustainability goals.

Q2 2022

Drive the productivity and sustainability transformation

In June we celebrated four years as a listed company. It has been an exciting time. We drive the productivity and sustainability transformation in our industry and will continue doing this by investing in innovation, aftermarket, and in options for the future. Some examples are the acquisitions of a provider of electrical infrastructure solutions and of a manufacturer of rock drills. Also, to enhance focus, we appointed a Chief Technology Officer and created a dedicated division for our digital solutions. We continue to build for the future, and I am proud of all our passionate and committed colleagues who take part in our journey.

Safety and health

The total recordable injury frequency rate (TRIFR)* the last 12 months increased to 5.6 compared to 5.1 for the full year 2021. Lost time injury frequency rate (LTIFR) also increased to 2.4. Several actions are taken to reduce injuries. The sick leave increased slightly to 2.5%, negatively impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.

* New types of injuries were included in reporting in 2021. Data for periods before Q4 2021 are not comparable.

CO2e emissions from operations

The CO2e emissions from operations and for comparable units** (Scope 1 & Scope 2) the last 12 months was 21 820 tonnes, a reduction of -14% compared to 25 372 tonnes for the full year 2021. This improvement is driven by several initiatives, including the installation of solar panels and a higher share of renewable electricity.

** In order to comply with Science Based Targets initiative's (SBTi) requirements to have a minimum 95% coverage of Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, 22 additional customer centers have reported CO2e emissions for full-year 2021. For comparability, Epiroc will report CO2e emissions for comparable units, i.e. excluding the additional customer centers, in the quarterly reports until year-end 2022.

CO2e emissions from transport

The CO2e emissions from transport the last 12 months increased 3% to 85 110 tonnes, compared to 82 383 tonnes for the full year 2021. The increase is mainly explained by higher volumes delivered. The emissions from transport were 22 386 tonnes lower compared to the base year emissions in 2019, which corresponds to 42% fulfilment of the 2030 goal to halve CO2e emissions from transport.

Auditor's review report

Epiroc AB (publ), Corp.Reg.No. 556041-2149

Introduction: We have reviewed the condensed interim report for Epiroc AB as at 30 June 2022 and for the sixmonth period then ended. The Board of Directors and the CEO is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of Review: We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements, ISRE 2410. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion: Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act regarding the Group, and in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act regarding the Parent Company.

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.
