January–September 2020 Q3
It has been another eventful quarter for Doro, we have taken several important steps forward in our ambition to become European market leader in technology enabled care. During the quarter, we completed two acquisitions whilst working to restructure the business. I am proud of the fantastic work that the Doro team has done during this intense period. Without their efforts and commitment, this would not have been possible, and together we will take steps towards becoming the leading player in the market.
The current pandemic has accentuated and accelerated some key market trends that influence our strategy and execution. Within business area Doro Care the market starts to demand solutions that are more efficient and secure which enables increased safety for seniors. Therefore, we continue to expand our service offering and develop new, innovative solutions to meet our customers' growing demand. During the quarter we accelerated our strategy, completed the acquisitions of Victrix and Eldercare, and launched our new welfare hub Eliza.
The acquisition of Victrix is a big step forward in our own software platform and strengthen our technical capability. Together with the launch of Eliza, we are a company with technology enabled care at the forefront. This enables us to offer more proactive solutions, create flexibility and speed with integrations to other systems and products. Victrix's strong technical competence and extensive experience in technology enabled care fits well with our strategy and will be a great addition to Doro. Another key part of our strategy is to strengthen our position in the UK market. With the acquisition of Eldercare, we expand our geographical presence in the UK and are one of the largest players in the market. The geographical position of Eldercare enables us to reach out and support new customers and thereby help more people to live a safer and secured life.
During the past quarter, the slow market development within business area Doro Care has continued, with postponed procurements. This has resulted in a sales development that is below our target, which we are not satisfied with. By reorganizing into two different business areas, we can work more intensely and focused within both business areas – Doro Care and Doro Phones. With a strengthened team and a greater focus, we can gradually improve the development and generate the results we want.
Sales during the third quarter amounted to SEK 443.2 million (521.4), a decrease of 15.0 percent compared to the third quarter of 2019. We see an improvement compared to the previous quarter, which is a result of a gradual recovery in our key markets, even though sales are still lower than last year. With good cost control, we managed to deliver an EBIT of SEK 31.7 million, excluding restructuring costs, (33.8) and a positive cash flow during the third quarter. It is too early to determine how long our business will be affected by the pandemic and it is still uncertain how the market will develop. Recently, however, we have shown that we are well prepared and in an efficient way have adapted the business to the current situation.
Early in the quarter we announced that we had decided to restructure the business in order to maintain and consolidate our market leading position in Europe. With a declining market and an ongoing pandemic, we want to ensure a sustainable and long-term profitability. To achieve this, we will reduce our operating expenses, predominately within business area Doro Phones, by SEK 110-130 million. We have already reduced our costs by SEK 50 million and I have strong belief that we will reach our saving target. The restructuring will create space for new innovative solutions and offerings, while we lay a strong foundation for continued success in both business areas.
I am convinced that the important steps we have taken in our strategy during the quarter will support a profitable growth. I look forward to all the challenges and new opportunities we have ahead of us. Together we will create a better future for seniors.

Doro Care
The gross margin increased compared with the third quarter of 2019 and amounted to 32.4 percent (31.1).
EBITDA for the third quarter decreased by 7.2 percent to SEK 53.2 million (57.3), which corresponds to an EBITDA margin of 12.0 percent (11.0).

Net sales in business area Care for the third quarter amounted to SEK 124.2 million (119.1), an increase of 4.3 percent compared with the third quarter of 2019. Sales of services increased by 7.6 percent to SEK 103.3 million (SEK 96.0 million) and product sales decreased by 9.5 percent to SEK 20.9 million (23.1). At the end of the quarter, our new innovative welfare hub Eliza was launched, specially developed to take advantage of the capabilities afforded through todays and tomorrows digital networks. The response from the market has been positive and in the beginning of the year, Eliza received the iF design award for its outstanding design. Sales are expected to increase in the coming quarters due to the launch of Eliza.
The gross margin for the third quarter was 40.8 percent (39.6).
EBIT amounted to SEK 9.7 million (9.1) during the third quarter, which is equivalent to an EBIT margin of 7.8 percent (7.6). The improved margin and operating profit are mainly an effect of the continued work of streamlining the alarm receiving centres. We are working to integrate and extract synergies from our latest acquisition Eldercare.
The number of subscriptions at the end of the period was 348,000 (304,000).
Sales in the Nordics decreased by 11.4 percent compared with the third quarter of 2019. The decrease in sales is partly due to lost contracts in Norway and less product sales. During the end of the quarter we have seen an increased tender activity in Sweden.
Sales in the UK and Ireland increased by 39.2 percent compared with the third quarter of 2019. This increase in sales is partly a result of the acquisition of Centra Pulse & Connect, which was incorporated in the group in September 2019, and partly a result of the acquisition of Eldercare, which was incorporated in the group in August 2020.
Sales for other regions during the third quarter totalled SEK 6.0 million (8.0).

Net sales in business area Doro Phones for the third quarter amounted to SEK 319.0 million (402.3), a decrease of 20.7 percent compared with the third quarter of 2019. Sales in the quarter continued to be negatively affected by COVID-19, but most countries started to see a gradual recovery. The recovery in the markets has been faster than we expected, as a result of this we have not been able to fully meet the demand in this quarter.
The order book increased by 37.4 percent compared to the previous quarter, which shows continued recovery.
The gross margin for the third quarter was 29.1 percent (28.6). EBIT amounted to SEK 23.1 million (29.8) during the third quarter, which is equivalent to an EBIT margin of 7,2 percent (7.4). The decline in profitability is mainly explained by the low sales in the quarter. Due to a good cost control, Doro Phones delivered a stable EBIT in a quarter where sales are still affected by the pandemic.
Sales in the Nordics decreased by 21.8 percent compared with the third quarter of 2019 and sales in Central and Eastern Europe decreased by 31.9 percent. The decline is a result of lower activity due to COVID-19. Especially in the Nordics we see that online sales have developed positively, where orders are placed online and picked up in stores.
Sales in Western and Southern Europe and Africa increased by 6.9 percent compared with the third quarter of 2019. The increase in sales is mainly driven by an increased demand of feature phones. Despite a declining market within feature phones, Doro has performed better than the market in the quarter and strengthen its market position. New product launches have also boosted sales to our operators.
Sales in the United Kingdom and Ireland increased by 8.8 percent compared with the third quarter of 2019. The increase in sales is mainly explained by a strong recovery in retail in the quarter and at the same time online sales continuing to develop positively.
As a result of the restructuring of business area Doro Phones we will phase out less profitable markets. One of these markets is North America, which decreased by 66.0 percent compared with the third quarter of 2019. Adjustments for other regions during the third quarter totalled SEK -0.5 million.

Cash flow from operating activities during the third quarter was SEK 155.9 million (73.0). The increase is mainly due to a positive change in working capital as a result of reduced inventory and accounts payable due to purchase restriction compared with the third quarter of 2019. Free cash flow, after investments but before acquisitions, amounted to SEK 145.1 million (40.8). Investments during the period amounted to SEK 10.8 million (32.2). During the quarter the cash flow was extra high due to long payment terms negotiated with our suppliers and a low inventory due to purchase restrictions.
Cash and cash equivalents totalled SEK 249.3 million (167.9) at the end of the third quarter. At the same time, the equity ratio was 48.7 percent (44.4).
Net cash amounted to SEK 6.2 million at the end of the third quarter, compared with a net debt of SEK 100.4 million at the end of the previous quarter and SEK 142.4 million at the end of the third quarter of 2019.
• In October Doro acquired Connexus Careline. To further expand its presence and strengthen its position in the UK market, Doro acquired the assets of the Careline services from Connexus Housing Group.
Doro's share is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, Small Cap, in the segment Telecom/IT. On 30 September 2020, the number of issued shares was 24.204.568, of which Doro AB holds 206.286 Doro shares. Total equity amounted to SEK 810.4 million (760.9).
On 30 September 2020, Doro had 1,043 (980) employees, corresponding to 793 (700) full-time equivalents. Of these employees, 358 (369) are based in the Nordic region, 36 (49) in Central and Eastern Europe, 34 (25) in Western and Southern Europe and Africa, 605 (528) in the United Kingdom and Ireland and 10 (9) in the rest of the world.
In the present situation. the most significant risks are those relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. Stores remaining closed and a general downturn in the economy would have a major impact on sales of telephones. Within Care, the pandemic may result in problems meeting demand for services if a large number of our alarm centre staff are absent from work while at the same time there is an increase in the number of alarms being generated.
Risks relating to information security are slightly increased (personal data) due to a large number of staff work from home, including alarm receiving centre staff.
Procurements and product launches are in danger of being postponed as a result of the pandemic.
Other risks are described on pages 28–29 of the Annual Report.
The parent company's net sales during the third quarter totalled SEK 321.8 million (386.2). Profit after tax amounted to SEK -2.2 million (15.9).

On 11th August 2020, Doro acquired all shares in the British telecare company Eldercare. Acquisition expenses had a negative effect on annual profit of SEK 2 million. The purchase price was paid in cash and amounted to around 25 million SEK on a cash and debt-free basis. Goodwill is linked to the strengthened position in the Care area in the United Kingdom, which Eldercare's sales channels provide. At the time of acquisition, the company had about 109 employees. Eldercare had annual sales in 2018/19 of GBP 4.6 million.

On 30 September 2020, Doro acquired all shares in the Spanish software company Victrix. Acquisition expenses had a negative effect on annual profit of SEK 0.3 million. The purchase price was partly paid in cash, SEK 15.8m (whereof SEK 1.0m refers to settlement of debt to previous owner) and partly in a directed placement valued at SEK 10.5m. An additional consideration (estimated to SEK 42.9m) will be paid if certain significant and defined sales targets are met during a three-year period. Goodwill is linked to the increased opportunity to offer innovative solutions within technology enabled care and a strengthen position in the Care area in Spain. At the time of acquisition, the company had about 10 employees. Victrix had annual sales in 2019 of EUR 0.4 million.

Guidelines regarding alternative key figures for companies with securities listed on a regulated market within the EU have been issued by the ESMA (European Securities and Markets Authority). These guidelines shall be applied to alternative key figures that are used with effect from 3 July 2016. The interim report has references to a number of non-IFRS result measurements that are used to help both investors and management in analysing the company's activities. Below we describe the non IFRS result measurements that are used as a supplement to the financial information that is reported according to IFRS.
| Non-IFRS result measurement | Description | Reason for use of measurement |
|---|---|---|
| Restructuring costs | Costs of impairment and personnel costs in connection with restructuring. |
This measurement shows the specific costs that arise in connection with restructuring of a specific activity. which contributes to better understanding of the underlying cost level in the ongoing operational activities. |
| Gross margin % | Net sales minus cost of goods and services sold as a percentage of net sales. |
The gross margin is an important measurement for showing the margin before other costs. |
| Sales growth comparable units % |
Net sales for the period minus net sales for companies acquired during the period minus net sales for the corresponding period in the previous year as a percentage of net sales for the corresponding period in the previous year. |
Sales growth comparable units shows the group's organic growth excluding company acquisitions. |

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of DORO AB (publ) as of 30 September 2020 and the nine-month period then ended. The board of directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim financial information 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 Report 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, ISA, 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 with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Parent Company.
