During the last few months, we have seen positive signs that more markets are opening up again in parallel with the vaccine roll-out. This has resulted in increased mobility and activity level in most of our core markets. In combination with the sharp drop in activity level last year, this has led to a record organic sales growth of 23% in the second quarter. EMEIA, which was most affected by the lockdowns last year, reports an organic sales growth of 39% with all regions growing strongly. Americas was up 26% and Entrance Systems grew by 21% as all their markets and product areas grew strongly. Global Technologies also reports a strong organic sales growth of 17%, but volumes in the travel related segments remain lower than before the pandemic. In Asia Pacific, the recovery is slower due to continued restrictions and lockdowns in many markets and the organic sales growth was flat.
Operating income increased by 71% to SEK 3,589 M and the operating margin was 15.2%, up 4.7 percentage points on last year. Despite significantly higher raw material and logistical costs, we achieved an operating leverage of 40%. Operating cash flow was strong and totaled SEK 3,627 M.
Demand in many markets has gradually improved and sales, adjusted for currency, are now back to or above pre-Covid levels in EMEIA, Americas and Entrance Systems. We are therefore shifting our focus so as to accelerate our profitable growth – something we discussed in more detail at our Capital Markets Day in May. One important driver for growth is upgrading the installed base to incorporate electromechanical products and solutions and the pandemic is accelerating this transition. This also provides opportunities to accelerate our recurring revenue from licenses and software. The shift to more sustainable solutions is another important driver of growth. Product innovation will continue to be a key enabler for both of these initiatives.
Our acquisition strategy will also continue to boost our topline and we signed four acquisitions in the quarter. Two of these, Sure-Lock in the US and MR Group in Portugal, strengthen our position in the mature markets with products and solutions that complement our core mechanical business. We have also recently announced the divestment of our locksmith business CERTEGO in the Nordic market. This will streamline EMEIA's channels to the market in the Nordic region and the transaction will be accretive for our operating margin.
Since raw material costs have continued to increase during the second quarter we have continued to implement numerous price increases that largely offset the cost impact. During the quarter we have also worked hard to address the shortage of some components. Thanks to excellent operational execution, we were able to manage the different component shortages and logistical constraints in an efficient way, while maintaining our customer service at a high level.
As we look forward, we expect mobility to increase and demand in many markets and segments to normalize, apart from the travel-related verticals where restrictions are still delaying our recovery. I now look forward to working together with my colleagues on our long-term growth plans to accelerate our profitable growth.

ASSA ABLOY continuously strives to reduce its carbon emissions. By sourcing energy from clean, renewable resources such as hydropower, wind power, and photovoltaic solar energy, the Group can lower the environmental impact compared to fossil fuels such as oil, coal, and natural gas.
During the last year, 11 key sites in the EMEIA division were able to increase substantially the amount of energy procured from renewable resources. This means that in Q1 2021, 85% of the electricity purchased came from renewable resources, compared to 47% in Q1 2020. Over the same period, the ASSA ABLOY Group increased the percentage of renewable electricity from 28% to 40%.
In tandem, we continue to focus on increasing the energy efficiency of all our sites, through our Green Teams and by applying the Lean Kaizen methodology to reduce energy waste.
Other operating income for the Parent company ASSA ABLOY AB totaled SEK 2,492 M (2,399) for the first half-year of 2021. Operating income for the same period amounted to SEK 497 M (494). Investments in tangible and intangible assets totaled SEK 4,201 M (10). Liquidity is good and the equity ratio is 42.0% (39.6).
ASSA ABLOY applies International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as endorsed by the European Union. The same accounting and valuation principles as in the latest Annual Report have been applied. No new or amended standards with material impact on the Group´s financial reports have been applied for the first time in 2021.
This Report was prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' and the Annual Accounts Act. The Report for the Parent company was prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 'Reporting by a Legal Entity'.
ASSA ABLOY makes use of a number of financial performance measures that are not defined in the reporting rules that the company uses – so-called 'alternative performance measures'. For definitions of financial performance measures, refer to Page 20 of this Report and to the company's latest Annual Report.
As from 2021 ASSA ABLOY has changed its definition of the financial performance measure "Return on capital employed". The measure is now calculated as a rolling Operating income (EBIT), excluding Items Affecting Comparability, for the last twelve months as a percentage of average capital employed excluding restructuring provisions for the same period.
The calculation of the performance measure "Return on equity" has also been adjusted from 2021. The new definition takes a rolling Net income attributable to the parent company´s shareholders for the last twelve months as a percentage of average parent company´s shareholders equity for the same period.
All comparative numbers for both performance measures have been recalculated in the interim report.
To check how the financial measurements have been calculated for current and earlier periods, refer to the tabulated figures in this Quarterly Report and to the company's Annual Report. The Annual Reports for the years 1994 to 2020 appear on the company's website www.assaabloy.com.
Totals quoted in tables and statements may not always be the exact sum of the individual items because of rounding differences. The aim is that each line item should correspond to its source, and rounding differences may therefore arise.
No transactions that significantly affected the company's position and income have taken place between ASSA ABLOY and related parties.
ASSA ABLOY is an international Group with a wide geographical spread, involving exposure to various forms of strategic, operational and financial risks. Strategic risks refer to changes in the business environment with potentially significant effects on ASSA ABLOY's operations and business objectives. Operational risks comprise risks directly attributable to business operations, entailing a potential impact on the Group's financial position and performance. Financial risks mainly comprise financing risk, currency risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, and risks associated with the Group's pension obligations.
Risk-taking in itself provides opportunities for continued economic growth, but naturally the risks may also have a negative impact on business operations and company goals. It is therefore essential to have a systematic and efficient risk assessment process and an effective risk management program in general. The purpose of risk management at ASSA ABLOY is not to avoid risks, but to take a controlled approach to identifying, managing and minimizing the effects of these risks. This work is based on an assessment of the probability of the risks and their potential impact on the Group.
The Covid-19 pandemic has had a substantial business impact on ASSA ABLOY. The continued impact of the pandemic on the business is difficult to predict due to the uncertainty of market conditions, but the health and safety of our employees remains our first priority.
For a more detailed description of particular risks and risk management, please see the 2020 Annual Report.
The guidance below relating to two key figures is provided to facilitate financial modeling but should not be viewed as forecasting market outlooks or ASSA ABLOY's business performance.
It is estimated that completed acquisitions and divestments, on a rolling 12 month basis at 30 June 2021, will have an effect of 3% on sales in the third quarter of 2021 versus the same period last year, while the effect on the operating margin is estimated to be strongly dilutive in the third quarter of 2021.
On the basis of the currency rates on 30 June 2021, it is estimated that the weighted currency effects on sales in the third quarter of 2021 versus the same period last year will be –3%, while the effect on the operating margin is estimated to be dilutive in the third quarter of 2021.
The Board of Directors and the President and CEO declare that this half-year report gives an accurate picture of the Parent Company's and the Group's operations, position and income and describes significant risks and uncertainty factors faced by the Parent Company and the companies making up the Group.

We have reviewed the condensed interim report for ASSA ABLOY AB as at June 30, 2021 and for the six months period then ended. The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are 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.
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements, ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. 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.
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.
