q
2021 was a very successful year for Sandvik. Thanks to our agility and dedicated employees, we navigated through supply chain imbalances and inflationary pressures while staying focused on our shift to growth strategy. We delivered strong organic and acquisitive growth as well as solid profitability. And we made important acquisitions that were purposely targeted to fill value chain gaps in our offering, enhance our core portfolio and regional exposure, accelerate our digital shift, and consequently strengthen our position going forward. Organic order intake and revenues for full year 2021 rose by 24% and 12%, respectively. Total order intake and revenue growth for the full year, at fixed exchange rates, was 30% and 18%, respectively. Adjusted EBITA margin was 19.1%.
We concluded this solid year with a strong fourth quarter, reporting a year on year organic order intake growth of 23% and double-digit gains in all business areas. I am also happy with the performance of our acquired companies, and total order intake and revenues grew by 36% and 26%, respectively. The adjusted EBITA margin was 18.4%.
The demand within Sandvik Mining and Rock Solutions remained very strong in the fourth quarter. We secured two majors orders valued at SEK 1.4 billion and the high interest in Sandvik's automation and digital offerings led to record orders for our AutoMine® Fleet and Newtrax collision avoidance systems. Total order intake grew by a high 52% year on year, of which organic growth was 30% - a major step-up considering the already high levels in the corresponding quarter of the preceding year. Total revenues grew 42% year on year. In December, we announced the acquisition of Deswik, the leading and fastest growing major provider of mine planning software. Mine planning is a key growth opportunity, and combined with Sandvik's equipment and automation expertise, we will create new opportunities for optimizing our customers' value chain. In order to maximize this opportunity, we announced the creation of a new division, Digital Mining Technologies, that will focus solely on our digital and automation solutions business.
Continued positive momentum in general engineering and double-digit growth in aerospace led to an increase in organic order intake and revenues of 11% and 12%, respectively in Sandvik Manufacturing and Machining Solutions. With solid contribution
from our acquired companies, total order intake, at fixed exchange rates, grew by 23%. In December, we acquired the US round tools company GWS, an important step in our ambition to increase our market share in round tools and enhance our exposure to the US. We also completed the acquisition of Dimensional Control Systems, thereby strengthening our metrology software offering.
Sandvik Rock Processing Solutions noted continued strong demand in the quarter, with year on year organic order intake growth of 18%. Invoicing held up well despite supply chain and logistics issues and organic revenues rose by 15% with doubledigit growth in both equipment and aftermarket.
Organic order intake in Sandvik Materials Technology increased by 40%, with improvements across all segments. The pace of recovery within oil & gas seen throughout the year continued in the fourth quarter.
In December, we announced our commitment to the Science Based Targets initiative, a natural step in our sustainable business strategy, where we constantly work with customers and suppliers to develop more productive, safer and sustainable solutions.
As a global company we are exposed to prevailing macro challenges such as logistics constraints, inflationary pressure, and the Covid-19 pandemic, to name a few. We expect these challenges to continue into the new year. While the impact on our company is hard to predict, I feel confident that we will tackle these issues in the same agile manner as we have done in the past year.
I am proud of this year's achievements. Much progress has been made and we have accomplished what we set out to do, and more. We have delivered a solid set of results, advanced our strategic objectives by achieving our key results for the year and completed more acquisitions than ever in Sandvik's history, all with a strong strategic rationale. As we now enter the new year, we do so with a more robust foundation - a Sandvik with stronger digital capabilities and higher growth potential.

Order intake increased organically by 23% year on year driven by strong performance across the Group. Total growth, at fixed exchange rates, was 36%. Organic revenues increased by 14% year on year, and total growth, at fixed exchange rates, was 26%.
Momentum within mining and infrastructure was strong throughout the year, driven by high commodity prices and increased investments, with no exception in the fourth quarter. Broad regional demand led to a double-digit growth in organic order intake for both Sandvik Mining and Rock Solutions ( 30%) and Sandvik Rock Processing Solutions (18%). The supply chain disturbances, freight capacity- and mobility constraints as well as component shortages during 2021, remained a challenge in the final quarter of the year. Reflecting efficient execution, organic revenue for SMR and SRP increased by 20% and 15%, respectively.
Underlying demand in Sandvik Manufacturing and Machining Solutions was solid overall, driven by the largest segment, general engineering, which developed positively throughout the year. Aerospace picked up strongly in the second half of the year, albeit from a low comparable, and grew by double-digits in the fourth quarter. Solid recovery in the automotive segment at the beginning of the year was followed by a slowdown in late spring due to hampered demand owing to semi-conductor shortages. This resulted in a year on year decline in the fourth quarter although the trend was stable sequentially. Total organic order intake in SMM grew by 11% year on year and revenues increased by 12%.
Demand in Sandvik Materials Technology was solid across all segments in 2021, although levels in the oil & gas segment were still significantly lower compared to pre-covid. Organic order intake in the fourth quarter rose by 40% year on year. Revenues were slightly up, 1%, mainly due to lower invoicing of umbilicals compared to the fourth quarter of the preceding year.
Strong broad-based demand contributed to all major regions recording double-digit growth for the full year compared with the year-earlier period and, for the fourth quarter, all regions noted increases aside from Asia, which reported stable development year on year.
Changed exchange rates had a positive impact of 2% on both order intake and revenues.


Reported gross profit amounted to SEK 11,368 million (8,644). Adjusted gross profit increased by 24% to SEK 11,343 million (9,147) mainly due to higher volumes year on year. The adjusted gross margin declined to 38.9% (40.8) with some impact from freight and energy costs, as well as dilution from acquisitions.
Sales, administration and R&D costs excluding items affecting comparability increased by 34% year on year and amounted to SEK 6,159 million (4,953) with the overall ratio to revenues at a stable 21.1% (20.5).
Adjusted EBITA increased by 16% to SEK 5,354 million (4,602), corresponding to a margin of 18.4% (20.5). Reported EBIT amounted to SEK 5,163 million (3,487). Adjusted EBIT increased by 13% to SEK 5,106 million (4,505) corresponding to a margin of 17.5% (20.1). Margins were impacted by a dilution of approximately 60 basis points from M&A transaction costs totaling SEK 179 million (0). The adjusted EBIT margin excluding metal price effects on a rolling 12-months basis was 17.8% (17.1). The impact from transaction and translation exchange rates was positive SEK 76 million year on year The total impact from changed exchange rates, including hedges and accounting effects was positive SEK 131 million year on year.
The interest net was reduced to SEK -87 million (-96) due to lower average interest in the debt portfolio. Net financial items amounted to SEK 108 million (-80), with the increase driven by temporary positive revaluation effects and a reported capital gain of SEK 173 million from divestment.
The tax rate excluding items affecting comparability for continuing operations was 26.3% (24.1). The reported tax rate for continuing operations was 26.6% (22.7) and 26.6% (22.8) for the Group in total.
Profit for the period amounted to SEK 3,870 million (2,633), corresponding to earnings per share, diluted, of SEK 3.07 (2.10) and adjusted earnings per share, diluted of SEK 3.05 (2.67). Adjusted earnings per share, diluted, excluding surplus values, amounted to SEK 3.21 (2.74).
The permanent savings and cost initiatives that were announced in 2020 had a positive impact of SEK 230 million in the quarter, corresponding to an annualized run-rate of about SEK 1,100 million of a total of SEK 1,200 million in targeted savings. The inital targeted savings of SEK 1,300 millon was revised downwards as some restructuring initatives in SMT was not deemed necessary due to improved market conditions. The majority of savings from these initiatives have been realized this year. The reversal of temporary savings had a negative year on year impact in the quarter of approximately SEK 395 million, due to higher discretionary spend and limited work time reductions compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year.
ADJUSTED GROSS PROFIT AND MARGIN




Capital employed increased sequentially mainly due to acquisitions and amounted to SEK 119.2 billion (101.1). Adjusted return on capital employed was sequentially stable at 18.9% (19.2).
Net working capital increased year on year and amounted to SEK 26.8 billion (20.3) and increased sequentially (25.3). The sequential uptick was mainly a consequence of acquired companies and higher inventories. Net working capital in relation to revenues decreased to 22.3% compared with the third quarter (24.3%).
Investments in tangible and intangible assets increased slightly compared with the preceding year and amounted to SEK 1.3 billion (1.1), corresponding to 143% of scheduled depreciations.
The financial net debt of SEK 16.8 billion (-8.8) was higher than in the preceding year and sequentially (7.4) mainly due to a negative cash impact from acquisitions, net of cash acquired of SEK 10.6 billion, partly offset by positive cash flow from operations. The net pension liability decreased year on year to SEK 6.1 billion (8.5) and sequentially (6.8), due to higher discount rates and return on assets. Total net debt increased to SEK 26.9 billion (2.6) and increased sequentially from SEK 17.9 billion in the third quarter. The net debt to equity ratio was 0.35 (0.04), representing an increase year on year and sequentially (0.25).
Free operating cash flow decreased year on year to SEK 4.6 billion (5.9) as a consequence of strong growth, with the earnings contribution offset by the build-up of net working capital.

SANDVIK COMMITTED TO SCIENCE BASED TARGETS
DECREASED INJURY RATE IN THE QUARTER
CONTINUED DECREASE IN GHG EMISSIONS

During the quarter Sandvik committed to set targets in line with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), consistent with the Paris Agreement. The commitment is a formal mark of our firm determination to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through our products and our operations. We continued to note a favorable trend in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions both in the quarter and for the full year, with a positive impact from our clean energy sourcing initiative. Our diversity and inclusion initiative also demonstrated strong progress with the share of female managers at a higher level than ever before.
During 2021, Sandvik Mining and Rock Solutions gained momentum in the field of electric mining equipment. In June, Sandvik received orders valued at SEK 140 million, the highest-ever order intake recorded for battery-electric mining vehicles (BEVs) in a single month. During MinExpo, new BEV products were launched, headlined by Sandvik TH550B - a loader equipped with our proprietary battery-swapping technology AutoSwap. In December, Sandvik and mine operator LKAB signed an agreement for an extensive trial of the TH550B truck and the LH518B loader. Zero emissions as well as reduced heat and noise in the mines are some of the sustainability and safety benefits from BEVs. These machines also improve productivity in terms of more efficient loading and increased speed. Electrification is advancing rapidly resulting in more sustainable mining operations across the globe.

Guidance below relates to continuing operations. Sandvik does not provide a market outlook or business performance forecasts. However, guidance relating to certain
non-operational key figures considered useful when modeling financial outcome is provided in the table below:
| CAPEX (CASH) | Estimated at SEK <5.0 billion for 2022. |
|---|---|
| CURRENCY EFFECTS | Based on currency rates at the end of December 2021, it is estimated that transaction and translation currency effects will have an impact of about SEK +400 million on operating profit (EBIT) for the first quarter of 2022, compared with the year-earlier period. |
| METAL PRICE EFFECTS | In view of currency rates, inventory levels and metal prices at the end of December 2021, it is estimated that there will be an impact of about SEK +80 million on operating profit (EBIT) in Sandvik Materials Technology for the first quarter of 2022. |
| INTEREST NET | Estimated at SEK <-0.4 billion in 2022. |
| TAX RATE | Estimated at 22% - 24% for 2022, normalized. |
A growth of at least 5% through a business cycle.
A trough EBIT margin of at least 16% rolling 12 months, adjusted for IAC and metal prices.
A dividend payout ratio of 50% of EPS, adjusted for IAC, through a business cycle.
A net debt/equity ratio below 0.5.
The 2030 sustainability targets focus on the areas of circularity, climate, people and ethics. These targets are reported on a quarterly basis and can be found on page 11.
This interim report was prepared in accordance with IFRS, applying IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The same accounting and valuation policies were applied as in the most recent annual report with the exception of new and revised standards and interpretations effective as of January 1, 2021.
The interim report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and the Securities Market Act, which is in line with standard RFR 2 Reporting by a legal entity issued by the Swedish Financial Reporting Board.
Put options issued to owners with non-controlling interests refer to agreements that give the owner the right to sell interests in the company, either at a fixed price or a fair value at a future period in time. The amount to be paid if the option is exercised is initially recognized, at present value, as a financial liability. The liability is remeasured and any change in present value is recognized in equity. If the option is not exercised by maturity the liability is derecognized with a corresponding adjustment in equity.
During the year an agenda decision was published by IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRS IC) on configuration or customization costs in cloud computing arrangements. The consequence of the agenda decision is that some intangible assets might have to be expensed retroactively or reclassified in the balance sheet. Another consequence is that it will not be possible to capitalize future configuration or customization costs in cloud computing arrangements to the same extent as today in future financial reports.
Sandvik is carrying out an analysis on the full effects of IFRS IC's agenda decision. It is not considered to have any significant impact on the Group.
IASB has published amendments of standards that are effective as of January 1, 2021 or later. The standards have not had any material impact on the financial reports.
No transactions between Sandvik and related parties that significantly affected the company's position and results took place.
As of December 31, there has been no significant impact on the financial reporting due to Covid-19 related to valuation of goodwill, expected credit losses, valuation of inventory or government grants.
The strong organic order intake and revenue growth recorded for the fourth quarter and full year was driven by robust underlying demand. Due to the Covid-19 outbreak in 2020, demand weakened as a consequence, and significantly so for certain parts of the business. Segments like oil & gas and aerospace, that was hit the hardest has improved throughout 2021, with good growth in the second half, albeit not back on pre-covid levels. The improved business momentum and higher demand has led to significant imbalances in the global supply chain and inflationary pressures, which has had an impact on Sandvik's operations. Mitigating actions such as alternative sourcing and price increases has been carried out and was well managed during the year and in the fourth quarter. Risks and uncertainties connected to the pandemic do remain and lock-downs have been noted, especially in Asia.
As an international group with a wide geographic spread, Sandvik is exposed to several strategic, business and financial risks. Strategic risk at Sandvik is defined as emerging risks affecting the business long-term, such as industry shifts, technological shifts and macroeconomic developments. The business risks can be divided into operational, sustainability, compliance, legal and commercial risks. The financial risks include currency risks, interest rates, raw material prices, tax risks and more. These risk areas can all impact the business negatively both long and short-term but often also create business opportunities if managed well. Risk management at Sandvik begins with an assessment in operational management teams where the material risks for their operations are first identified, followed by an evaluation of the probability of the risks occurring and their potential impact on the Group. Once the key risks have been identified and evaluated risk mitigating activities to eliminate or reduce the risks are agreed on. For a more detailed description of Sandvik's analysis of risks and risk universe, see the Annual Report for 2020.

Sandvik presents certain financial measures that are not defined in the interim report in accordance with IFRS. Sandvik believes that these measures have an important purpose of providing useful supplemental information to investors and the company's management when they allow evaluation of trends and the company's performance. As not all companies calculate the financial measures in the same way, these are not always comparable to measures used by other companies. These financial measures should not be seen as a substitute for measures defined under IFRS. For definitions of alternative performance measures that Sandvik uses see below.
