CEO comments

A strong start

The year 2022 started off strongly. The demand remained at a high level and orders received increased 29% to a record-high BSEK 13.8. This corresponds to 18% organic growth compared to the previous year. It is encouraging to see the high demand for our equipment, for our solutions within automation, digitalization, electrification, as well as for our aftermarket offering. Several large- and medium-sized orders were won, of which many included battery-electric vehicles and automation features. The order intake for services was also strong.

Increased revenues and operating profit

Revenues increased 14% organically to MSEK 11 088. Our reported operating profit increased 41% and reached a new record of MSEK 2 631. The adjusted operating margin increased to 23.3% (23.0). It was supported by organic revenue growth, but diluted by acquisitions.

Our operating cash flow decreased to MSEK 867 (1 610), impacted by a build-up of working capital due to strong growth and constraints in the supply chain.

Disruptions from the war in Ukraine and the Covid-19 pandemic

The war in Ukraine and the resulting humanitarian suffering is truly horrifying. Our primary concern is the safety and well-being of our employees and we have taken several measures to keep our colleagues safe. Our business was negatively impacted in Russia and Ukraine, mainly in March, as we paused deliveries to Russia and the activities in Ukraine have been very limited. Our exposure to Russia and Ukraine is presented on page 6.

The impact from the Covid-19 pandemic decreased, but the challenges in the supply chain continued to negatively impact our operations.

In the near term, we expect that demand, both for equipment and aftermarket, will remain at a high level.

Dare to think new

Innovations, acquisitions, and partnerships strengthen our position as a leading global productivity and sustainability partner.

We introduced Mobius for Drills, a platform that will lead mines towards automation and connectivity. It enables multi-vehicle command, control and monitoring. We also introduced a more efficient and powerful blasthole drill rig. Both innovations aim to increase safety and productivity for our customers.

I am pleased that we are partnering with steel manufacturer SSAB to utilize fossil-free steel in the production of our underground mining equipment. It is clear that our innovation agenda goes hand-inhand with our customers' sustainability agenda. Going forward, we will continue to think new, innovate, collaborate, and create options for the future.

Leading productivity and sustainability partner

Innovations, acquisitions and partnerships strengthen Epiroc's position as a leading global productivity and sustainability partner. Below are some highlights from the quarter.

Innovation – more powerful blasthole rig

Epiroc introduced the DM30 XC blasthole drill. It is designed for maximum productivity and efficiency, and features increased rotary torque and pulldown, and a larger hole range capability. It can also be equipped with Epiroc's Rig Control System (RCS) Lite, which offers several additional safety and productivity features.

Innovation – solution for automation

Epiroc, in partnership with ASI Mining LLC, introduced Mobius for Drills, a new platform to convert data into useful, actionable information. Mobius for Drills will lead mines toward automation and connectivity. Featuring embedded artificial intelligence, the userfriendly Mobius system enables multi-vehicle command, control and monitoring to maximize productivity and safety.

Partnership

Epiroc is collaborating with steelmaker SSAB to utilize fossil-free steel in the production of Epiroc's mining equipment. Initially, fossil-free steel will be used for a prototype underground machine produced in Örebro, Sweden, and the plan is to increase the usage of fossil-free steel over time.

*

Employees

The number of employees increased to 15 548 (13 947), partly due to acquisitions. External workforce amounted to 1 521 (1 200). For comparable units, the total workforce increased with 1 047 compared to the previous year, mainly related to service.

The proportion of women employees and women managers at the end of the period increased to 17.6% and 23.0%, respectively.

Safety and health

The total recordable injury frequency rate (TRIFR)* the last 12 months increased to 5.3 compared to 5.1 for the full year 2021, mainly due to more injuries in the external workforce. Lost time injury frequency rate (LTIFR) also increased to 2.2. Several actions are taken to reduce injuries. The sick leave increased to 2.6%, negatively impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.

CO2e emissions from operations

The CO2e emissions from operations and for comparable units** (Scope 1 & Scope 2) the last 12 months was to 23 659 tonnes, a change of -7% compared to 25 372 tonnes for the full year 2021. The decrease is explained by several initiatives where solar panels have been installed on buildings and a higher share of renewable electricity.

CO2e emissions from transport

The CO2e emissions from transport the last 12 months increased 3% to 84 890 tonnes, compared to 82 383 tonnes for the full year 2021. The increase is mainly explained by higher volumes delivered. The emissions from transport are -22 645 tonnes compared to the base year emissions in 2019, which corresponds to 42% fulfilment of the 2030 goal to halve CO2e emissions from transport.

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

** In order to comply with Science Based Targets initiative (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.

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.
