Solid growth and robust margin

Divestment of the FoodTech Equipment offering has been completed. The comments and figures in this report refer to continuing operations unless otherwise stated. For more information see pages 16-17.

April-June

  • Order intake increased +22%, with strong growth in Data Center Technologies (DCT) and FoodTech, as well as organic growth in AirTech.
  • Net sales grew +11%, driven by solid growth in DCT and FoodTech, while AirTech declined. Currency effects impacted sales by -10%.
  • The adjusted EBITA margin declined, primarily due to lower volumes in AirTech in Americas as well as unfavorable product and regional mix. This was partly offset by a strong margin contribution from DCT. FoodTech remained at a healthy level, although declined due to increased expansion investments.
  • Cash flow from operating activities was lower compared to last year, primarily due to lower operating earnings and negative cash flow from changes in working capital.
  • OWC/net sales improved to 9.1%, below the target range of 13–10%.
  • Leverage declined to 2.8x compared to 3.1x in the first quarter, driven by the divestment of the FoodTech Equipment business.
  • Earnings per share, before and after dilution, amounted to SEK 0.97 (1.65).
  • The AGM in May resolved to pay a total dividend of 1.60 SEK (1.30), a total of MSEK 292 (237) to be paid in two equal instalments. This represented 30% (30) of net income in 2024. The first instalment of the dividend was paid out in May.

Klas Forsström President and CEO

"Momentum was good, supported by our clear strategic focus on long-term growth opportunities. Strong execution across the business delivered solid growth, a robust margin and operating working capital below target."

CEO comments

We saw overall continued good momentum in the quarter, supported by our clear strategic focus on strong long-term growth opportunities. Order intake increased 22%, with all three business areas contributing organically. Net sales grew steadily with 11%, excluding currency effects the increase was 21%. The EBITA margin remained robust at 13.6% - a solid achievement considering currency headwinds and the tough comparison against last year's all-time high level.

Solid execution from DCT and FoodTech

Demand in DCT continues to be driven primarily by Americas, where interest in our broad portfolio of cooling solutions is high. We continue to have a firm belief in the market's long-term growth potential. As expected, following our acquisition of Geoclima, chillers have become a strategically important product category which contributed significantly to the good order intake in the quarter. DCT continued to deliver strong margins, supported by solid execution and high factory utilization.

FoodTech also delivered a strong quarter, with high activity supported by continued market expansion. Notably, an order for our software solution was received from one of the world's largest egg producers, reflecting strong interest in our digital offering. The divestment of the Equipment offering, completed during the quarter, marked an important strategic step toward our focus on digital solutions in FoodTech. Profitability remained at a healthy level despite increased expansion investments.

Volume- and margin-enhancing actions underway in AirTech

In AirTech overall demand remained unchanged in Americas and EMEA, while activity increased in APAC, contributing to slight organic growth. Despite lingering headwinds in the battery sub-segment, order intake remained at a stable level, reflecting Airtech's increasingly diversified portfolio. As expected, AirTech's margin was impacted by uneven capacity utilization and an increasingly competitive environment. In addition, the margin is still affected by the temporary dual-site operations in the US. The new facility in Amesbury was inaugurated in late May and the transition to the site is progressing as planned. The new site will house production for AirTech's full offering, including service and component operations and the old facility is scheduled to fully close during the second half of the year. AirTech's margin is expected to gradually improve during the year, supported by the earlier communicated margin enhancing actions and a more balanced production footprint.

While short-term demand in the battery sub-segment is expected to remain subdued into 2026 with regional differences, we are actively working to shift capacity toward other segments and maintain flexibility. However, our long-term view of the battery market remains positive, supported by the global trend toward electrification.

Positioned for the next phase of sustainable and profitable growth

Operating working capital in relation to net sales amounted to 9.1%, below our target range of 13–10%, supported by continued structured work to improve capital efficiency. During the quarter, we broadened our financial platform through the establishment of a Medium Term Note program. As part of this, we issued our inaugural green bonds of SEK 1 billion, which were met with strong interest from institutional investors. The bond issuance enhances our financial flexibility and is aligned with our sustainability ambitions. Proceeds will be used to finance or refinance eligible green investments. This move is one of several initiatives to diversify our funding mix and enable continued investment in strategic priorities.

We enter the remainder of 2025 with solid momentum in DCT and FoodTech, and with volume- and marginenhancing actions underway in AirTech. Our strategic direction remains firm – with a clear focus on our prioritized growth areas, supported by regional manufacturing and targeted investments in innovation. In today's environment, we are obviously monitoring market developments closely and will take further actions if needed. We remain confident in our ability to deliver long-term value for customers and stakeholders. Finally, I want to extend my thanks to all Munters employees for your continued commitment. Your efforts remain key to our ability to adapt, deliver and create value.

Order intake

April-June 2025

Order intake amounted to MSEK 3,666 (2,996), (organic +12%, structural +21%, currency effects -10%), with strong growth in DCT and FoodTech, as well as organic growth in AirTech.

In AirTech order intake was mainly driven by positive development in APAC, while Americas and EMEA declined. Overall order intake remained stable despite continued weakness in the battery sub-segment. Order intake in DCT increased, supported by continued strong underlying demand in Americas. Growth was primarily driven by orders for chillers and CRAHs (Computer Room Air Handler). In FoodTech, order intake increased, driven by strong performance in both controllers and software in all regions.

January-June 2025

Order intake during the first half of the year amounted to MSEK 7,222 (5,792), (organic +9%, structural +20%, currency effects -5%). The order backlog at the end of the period amounted to MSEK 9,774 (11,274), corresponding to a -13% decrease.

For more information on the order intake, see the business area comments on pages 6, 7 and 8.

Net sales

April-June 2025

Net sales increased to MSEK 3,606 (3,256) (organic +10%, structural +10%, currency effects -10%), driven by solid growth in DCT and FoodTech, while AirTech declined.

In AirTech the net sales decline was mainly due to lower sales in the battery sub-segment in Americas. This was partly offset by good development in APAC. Net sales in DCT increased, driven mainly by successful execution of the order backlog in Americas, with deliveries progressing according to plan. In FoodTech net sales grew, driven by good growth in controllers.

Munters has an ambition to reach a Service and Components level of more than one third of net sales in the longterm. Service is defined as after-market service plus Software-as-a-Service (Saas) revenues. Service and Components amounted to 25% (28) of net sales, with an organic development of +5%. Service accounted for 16% (19) of total net sales with an organic growth of +4%.

January-June 2025

Net sales grew to MSEK 7,320 (6,410) (organic +7%, structural +11%, currency effects -4%).

For more information on the net sales, see the business area comments on pages 6, 7 and 8.

The gross margin amounted to 32.7% (38.2).

Adjusted EBITDA amounted to MSEK 600 (676), corresponding to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.6% (20.8). Depreciation of tangible assets amounted to MSEK -109 (-83), whereof depreciation of leased assets was MSEK -62 (-41).

Adjusted EBITA amounted to MSEK 491 (593), corresponding to an adjusted EBITA margin of 13.6% (18.2). As expected, the margin declined in AirTech primarily due to lower net sales in Americas - especially within the battery sub-segment. The margin was further pressured by an unfavorable product and regional mix, uneven capacity utilization and increased price pressure in a more competitive environment. Additional pressure came from temporary dual-site costs in the US. The earlier communicated cost-saving measures are progressing as planned, with gradual margin improvements expected. DCT delivered a strong adjusted EBITA margin, supported by solid volume growth in Americas, high production efficiency, favorable product mix, and continued lean improvements. FoodTech's adjusted EBITA margin remained at a healthy level, despite a decline from last year's all-time high. The decrease was mainly driven by product mix and continued high investment levels to support future growth, including innovation and expansion into new regions and customer segments.

Financial position

Net debt as of June 30 amounted to MSEK 6,850 (4,447) compared to MSEK 7,674 at end of March 2025. The decrease in net debt in the second quarter is attributable to the closing of the FoodTech Equipment divestment. Net debt in relation to adjusted EBITDA was 2.8x (2.0x) and 3.1x as of March 31, 2025.

Interest-bearing liabilities, including lease liabilities, amounted to MSEK 8,203 (5,936) compared to MSEK 8,816 at end of March 2025. The decrease in the second quarter is related to the closing of FoodTech Equipment divestment.

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to MSEK 1,648 (1,775) as of June 30 compared to MSEK 1,439 as of March 31, 2025.

During the quarter, Munters entered into a new credit facility and a new revolving credit facility totaling MUSD 200 and MEUR 250. The new 3-year credit facilities, each with two one-year extension options, replacing existing facilities established in 2021. The credit facilities under the new agreement enhance financial flexibility and support continued growth and are linked to selected sustainability targets.

Munters also finalized a new Medium Term Note (MTN) Program to provide a solid financial platform, together with a Green Bond Framework to support the company's sustainability ambitions and targets. Under the MTN program Munters issued two inaugural bonds, MSEK 200 with a 3-year tenor and MSEK 800 with a 5-year tenor. In addition, commercial papers amounting to MSEK 500 were issued during the quarter.

The Group's interest-bearing liabilities have an average maturity of 2.6 (2.4) years as of June 30 compared to 1.4 years at end of March 2025.

Average capital employed for the last twelve months amounted to MSEK 13,696 (12,064). Return on capital employed (ROCE) for the last twelve months was 11.6% (14.8%). The decrease is explained by an increase in capital employed combined with lower operating profit.

Cash flow

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to MSEK 190 (601) in the second quarter and MSEK 730 (1,112) in the first six months. The decrease in cash flow is primarily driven by lower operating earnings and negative working capital development. Cash flow from changes in working capital was MSEK -90 (161) in the second quarter and MSEK 20 (351) for the six-months period. Business area DCT showed a continued strong cash flow from operating activities in the quarter, while the cash flow in AirTech was negative.

Taxes paid were MSEK -188 (-166) in the quarter and -225 (-272) in the first six months, driven by tax payments in the US.

Cash flow from investing activities was MSEK -192 (-364) in the second quarter and includes investments in intangible asset and property, plant and equipment of MSEK -198 (-177). The increase in capital expenditure is largely explained by investments in the new AirTech facility in Amesbury, US. In addition, cash flow from investing activities related to discontinued operations amounted to MSEK 1,027 (-2) and pertain to the purchase price received from the divestment of the FoodTech Equipment business (for more information see page 17).

Parent company

The parent company for the Group is Munters Group AB. The parent company does not engage in sales of goods and services to external customers. In the quarter a MTN- program and a green bond issuance was established, through the parent company. The inaugural green bond issuances in June included a MSEK 200 (3-year tenor) bond and a MSEK 800 (5-year tenor) bond, recognized in the balance sheet of the parent company. Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period amounted to MSEK 722 (0).

April-June 2025

Order intake

Order intake grew +2% organically (structural +3%, currency effects -9%), mainly driven by positive development in APAC, while Americas and EMEA declined. Overall order intake remained stable despite continued weakness in the battery sub-segment.

  • The Industrial segment (excl. battery) grew in EMEA and APAC, while Americas declined. As anticipated, the battery sub-segment remained weak but showed growth in APAC. The market continued to be affected by delayed greenfield investments, shorter lead times, and lower project volumes. While shortterm demand in batteries is expected to remain subdued into 2026 with regional differences, the longterm view remains positive.
  • The Commercial segment grew, primarily driven by increased demand in India.
  • Clean Technologies (CT) showed good growth, supported by the Airprotech acquisition last year. • The Components segment increased, mainly in Americas, due to continued high demand for evaporative
  • pads to the data center market. • The Service segment declined, mainly due to EMEA, whereas the other regions were flat.

Net sales

Net sales declined -6% organically (structural +2%, currency effects -8%), mainly due to lower sales in the battery sub-segment in Americas. This was partly offset by good development in APAC. Service accounted for 23% (22) and Components 19% (16) of AirTech's net sales.

  • The Industrial segment (excl. battery) declined in Americas and APAC, whereas EMEA showed good growth, primarily driven by the food and pharma sub-segments. The battery sub-segment declined in Americas and EMEA, partly offset by growth in APAC.
  • The Components segment grew, supported by higher demand for rotors in APAC and evaporative pads in Americas.
  • The Service segment remained flat.

Adjusted EBITA

As expected, the adjusted EBITA margin declined, primarily due to lower net sales in Americas - especially within the battery sub-segment. The margin was further pressured by an unfavorable product and regional mix, uneven capacity utilization and increased price pressure in a more competitive environment.

  • Ongoing investments in the global manufacturing footprint also impacted the margin negatively, including continued dual-site costs in the US. The new facility was inaugurated in late May and will house production for AirTech's full offering, including service and component operations. The old facility is scheduled to fully close during the second half of the year.
  • Margin-enhancing actions communicated earlier remain a priority, and the cost-saving measures initiated in 2024 are progressing as planned. Gradual improvements are expected during the year.

January-June 2025

  • Order intake declined -7% organically (structural +4%, currency effects -4%), primarily due to continued weakness in the battery sub-segment in EMEA. Clean Technologies and Components reported growth.
  • Net sales decreased -10% organically (structural +4%, currency effects -4%), mainly driven by lower volumes in Americas - especially within the battery sub-segment and the Service segment.
  • The adjusted EBITA margin declined, impacted by lower volumes and reduced production utilization. Additional pressure came from dual-site costs in the US and an unfavorable product and regional mix.

Corporate

The Corporate function reported an adjusted EBITA of MSEK -24 (-45) in the second quarter and MSEK -21 (-95) during the first six months.

The rollout of a new global software system, initiated end of 2024, has progressed in 2025.

As more subsidiaries implemented the system in 2025, the corporate charge increased, improving adjusted EBITA in Corporate functions. Adjusted EBITA during the first six months is positively impacted by exchange rate differences from translation of a non-current contract for software licenses, denominated in Euro.

Accounting policies

This report has been prepared, with regards to the Group, in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, recommendation RFR 1 of the Swedish Financial Reporting Board and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and, with regards to the Parent Company, in accordance with recommendation RFR 2 of the Swedish Financial Reporting Board and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The accounting principles applied correspond to those presented in the Annual- and Sustainability report 2024 (Note 1).

In the first quarter of 2025, Munters classified the financial reporting of the Equipment offering as held for sale and as discontinued operations, meaning that assets and liabilities related to Equipment were presented on separate lines in the balance sheet. In the income statement, the profit/loss after tax for the period from discontinued operations, including IACs, was reported on a separate line. The income statement was adjusted for comparative periods as though the discontinued operation had already been classified as discontinued operations at the beginning of the comparative periods. Internal balances and transactions between continuing and discontinued operations were eliminated. On May 30th 2025 the transaction was closed and all balances related to Equipment were derecognized. See Discontinued operations for further information.

The cash flow from discontinued operations has been separated from cash flow from continuing operations and reported on separate lines within cash flow from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities in the current period and comparative periods.

No new and revised standards and interpretations effective from January 1, 2025, are considered to have any material impact on the financial statements.

As from 2025, the definition of SaaS ARR has been updated from being calculated as SaaS Recurring Revenue in the last quarter multiplied by 4, to being calculated as SaaS Recurring Revenue in the last month of the period multiplied by 12. The updated definition has no significant impact on the ARR presented.

Sustainability policy

Munters products and operations affect people and the external environment to a varying extent throughout the value chain. Munters environmental footprint from operations mainly derives from energy use, waste, and certain handling of chemicals along with transport of input goods and finished products to and from Munters factories. The use of sold products is identified as the major source of climate impact and Munters is committed to constant vigilance regarding the environmental impact of its operations and reduce climate impact throughout the lifetime of the products. Munters is committed to complying with all laws and to continuously promoting improvements in all Environment, Health & Safety (EHS) aspects, wherever Munters conducts business. We constantly seek opportunities to reduce risk and to create a safer, healthier and more diverse workplace for our employees, customers, communities, and the overall environment. Munters manufacturing facilities all over the world are committed to working according to an EHS Management Program. The purpose of the EHS Management Program is to ensure regulatory compliance, actively prevent injuries, and reduce the impact that our business has on the environment.

Risks and uncertainties

Munters is a global company. Our global presence enhances Munters resilience against local disruptions while simultaneously exposing the company to various risks associated with cultural, legal, political, and climate-related differences worldwide. The Group's significant risks and uncertainties can be divided into five categories; strategic, market, operational, financial and regulatory risks. In these categories, there are both risks due to political and macroeconomic trends and specific risks directly linked to the Group. A strategic risk assessment is carried out on an annual basis and the purpose is to identify and manage the most important risks that threaten our strategic goal.

Given the heightening uncertainty driven by a shifting evolving political risk landscape, particularly the threat of new tariffs and changes in trade policies that elevate market risk, it is essential for Munters to remain agile

and review its strategy. Flexibility across both the value chain and production is key to mitigating the impact of unforeseen disruptions.

Munters products are used in complex customer processes. Quality and contract obligations are critical and could result in claims for damages. The Group depends to some extent on key customers and key personnel. Considering that Munters is a company with geographically widespread operations and many small organizational units, there is a risk of failure to comply with relevant regulations in the business ethics area, e.g. antibribery rules. In addition, due to Munters presence in multiple geographical locations, the Group is also exposed to climate-related risks, such as extreme weather events, regulatory changes, and supply chain disruptions.

Financial risks mainly consist of currency, interest and financing risks. Munters works actively with insurance solutions, and group-wide insurances are governed by central guidelines. This includes for example coverage for general liability and product liability, property, business interruption, transportation, the liability of Board members and the CEO and employment practices liabilities.

A more detailed description of the Group's risks and how they are managed can be found in the Annual- and Sustainability report 2024 on pages 56- 59.

Transactions with related parties

There have been no significant transactions with related parties during the period.

Fair value of financial instruments

Financial assets measured at fair value through profit/loss relate to financial investments and derivatives. Financial investments amounted to MSEK 164 (124) and net derivatives to MSEK 11 (11) as of the balance sheet date.

In January 2025, the minority shareholders of MTech Systems exercised their options to sell their 33.6% shareholding in the company to Munters. 80% of the transaction price, USD 80.7 million was paid on 31 March 2025. The remaining 20% of the transaction price is considered contingent consideration and is expensed over 12 months from the closing date.

The put/call option from the acquisition of a majority share in InoBram is recognized at fair value. Munters acquired 60% of the company but the agreement includes a put/call option for Munters to acquire the remaining 40% of the company in 2027. The exercise period for the sellers put option begins in March 2026. The fair value of the option amounts to MSEK 101 (40) as of the balance sheet date.

MSEK 2025/06/30 2024/06/30 2024/12/31

The put/call options are measured according to IFRS 9 and are categorized in level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Munters deems that the interest rate on interest-bearing liabilities is in line with market terms on June 30, 2025, and the fair value at the end of the reporting period therefore in all material aspects corresponds to the carrying amount.

Business combinations

Other than the acquisition of the non-controlling interest in MTech Systems (see Fair value of financial instruments), no new acquisitions have been signed or closed in 2025.

Reconciliation of alternative performance measures and items affecting comparability

The Group presents certain financial metrics in the Interim Report that are not defined in accordance with IFRS. The Group is of the opinion that these metrics provide valuable complementary information, in that they enable an evaluation of the Group's performance. The financial metrics are calculated in accordance with the definitions presented in this interim report. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITA is found in the quarterly overview on page 11. Items affecting comparability are events or transactions with significant financial effects, which are relevant for the understanding of the financial performance when comparing the current period to previous periods. Items included are for example, restructuring activities, capital gains and losses from business divestments and M&A related costs. Below is a break-down of items affecting comparability.

Discontinued operations

In February 2025, Munters signed an agreement to divest the FoodTech Equipment offering ("FT Equipment") to Grain & Protein Technologies for MEUR 97.5 on a cash and debt free basis. May 30th the transaction closed.

The divestment includes five production facilities across Italy, Germany, China and US, one assembly hub in South Africa and three sales offices. Approximately 400 employees operating across Europe, North America, Middle East and Southeast Asia are part of this business, which manufactures and sells ventilation equipment for customers within

livestock farming and greenhouses. The FT Equipment offering includes fans, ventilation and cooling systems as well as production of CELdek (evaporative cooling pads). Production and sales of the CELdek product line in Americas is excluded from the divestment and has been integrated into the business area AirTech.

Munters report the result from FT Equipment as discontinued operations. See Accounting policies for further information about the impacts to the financial reports from the reclassification.

Definition of key financial indicators

In this financial report, there are references to several performance measures. Some of the measures are defined in IFRS, others are alternative performance measures and are not disclosed in accordance with applicable financial reporting frameworks or other legislations. The performance measures are used by the Group to assist both investors and management in analyzing Munters business. Below the performance measures found in this financial report are described and defined. The reason for the use of the performance measure is also disclosed.

Organic growth

Change in net sales compared to the previous period, excluding acquisitions and divestments and currency translation effects. The measure is used by Munters to monitor net sales growth driven by changes in volume and price between different periods.

Currency-adjusted growth

Change in net sales compared to the previous period, adjusted for currency translation effects. The measure is used by Munters to monitor changes in net sales from both organic and inorganic growth between different periods.

Order backlog

Received and confirmed sales orders not yet delivered and accounted for as net sales. Order Backlog is a useful measure to indicate the efficiency of the conversion of received and confirmed sales orders into net sales in future periods. The measure is used by Munters to monitor business performance and customer demand and adjust operations if needed.

Order intake

Received and confirmed sales orders minus cancelled orders during the reporting period. The order intake is an indicator of future revenues and, consequently, an important KPI for the management of Munters business.

Operating profit (EBIT)

Earnings before interest and tax. Munters believes that EBIT shows the profit generated by the operating activities.

Adjusted EBITA

Operating profit, adjusted for amortizations, write-downs of intangible assets and items affecting comparability. Munters believes that using adjusted EBITA is helpful in analyzing our performance as it removes the impact of items considered not to be of recurring character and therefore do not reflect our core operating performance.

Adjusted EBITA margin

Adjusted EBITA as a percentage of net sales. Munters believes that Adjusted EBITA margin is a useful measure for showing the Company's profit generated by the operating activities.

Adjusted EBITDA

Operating profit adjusted for items affecting comparability and depreciations, amortizations and write-downs of tangible and intangible assets as well as Right-of-Use assets.

Adjusted EBITDA margin

Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.

Items affecting comparability (IAC)

Items affecting comparability are events or transactions with significant financial effects, which are relevant for the understanding of the financial performance when comparing the current period to previous periods. Items included are for example, restructuring activities, capital gains and losses from business divestments and M&A related costs.

Earnings per share

Net income divided by the weighted average number of outstanding shares.

Capital employed

Capital employed is calculated as the total equity plus interest bearing liabilities.

Return on capital employed (ROCE)

Average operating profit (EBIT) plus financial income, divided by the average capital employed, where capital employed is total equity plus interest-bearing liabilities. The average capital employed is calculated based on the last 12 months.

Operating working capital

Includes accounts receivable, inventory, accrued income, accounts payable and advances from customers.

Operating working capital/net sales

Average Operating working capital for the last twelve months as a percentage of net sales for the same period.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and bank balances plus investments in securities and the like with maturity periods not exceeding three months. This is a measure that highlights the short-term liquidity.

LTM

LTM (last twelve months) after any key indicator means that the KPI corresponds to an accumulation of previous twelve month reported numbers. The measure highlight trends in different KPIs, which is valuable in order to gain a deeper understanding of the development of the business.

Net debt

Net debt calculated as interest bearing liabilities, lease liabilities, provisions for pension and accrued financial expenses, reduced by cash and cash equivalents.

Leverage

Net debt / adjusted EBITDA, LTM

SaaS recurring revenue

Total recurring revenue from SaaS contracts (Software-as-a-Service) recognized in the period. The KPI is also presented annualized and named SaaS ARR, which is calculated by multiplying SaaS Recurring Revenue in the last month of the period by twelve.

Service

After-market service and software-as-a-service (SaaS) revenues.

After-market service

After-market service is defined as sales of spare parts, commissioning and installation, inspections and audits, repairs and other billable services.

Components

The Components portfolio within AirTech includes dehumidification rotors and humidification pads used in climate control.

Full Time Equivalents (FTE)

Number of employees is presented recalculated as full-time positions, defined as Full Time Equivalents (FTE), if not otherwise stated. Average number of employees for the year is calculated as the sum of permanent employees at the end of each of the last 13 months divided by 13.
