As predicted the COVID-19 pandemic had a considerable effect on the second quarter. Several of our units in Europe and the USA have run on reduced capacity since customers stopped their production. Our European operations felt this the most and sales there dropped by 28 percent. At the same time, our operations in Asia performed better than last year. To counteract the lower demand in Europe we completely or partially furloughed around 2,000 employees in turns and severely reduced the number of temporary hired personnel. We have also taken a number of steps to strengthen our liquidity buffer such as postponing investments and minimizing costs not critical to operations.
In Supply Chain Solutions customer segments Automotive and Fashion & Lifestyle were hit the hardest during the quarter and sales dropped dramatically in April and May. However, demand in customer segments Electronics and Health Care & Life Science has grown during the quarter and this has compensated for the downturn in the other segments. In Electronics the higher demand stemmed from all the students and employees working from home which raised the need for laptops, monitors and computer accessories as well as server capacity and network equipment. In Health Care & Life Science we have developed a concept where we for example helped authorities in North and South America to procure, perform quality control of and purchase personal protective equipment from Asia. We also took responsibility for shipping the products to various distribution centrals. Net sales generated by the deals with personal protective equipment, which was most likely one-time business, amounted to around 45 million US dollars during the second quarter. We are now investigating whether this concept also could be of interest for other parties.
The COVID-19 pandemic had the most negative effect on business area Print & Packaging Solutions. The majority of customers shut down production during most of the quarter and there was a drastic drop in market activity which in turn also affected our production volumes. The subscription box business in the USA continued to grow and in part mitigated the decline in net sales in the other units but it could not compensate the drop in the result.
The situation began to stabilize for both business areas towards the end of the quarter. It is beginning to look a little better and customers have started up their operations again, although many of them are not at the same levels as before the virus outbreak. A number of countries have begun to lift restrictions and, for instance, allowed shopping centers to open up again. All our units are now running as well, except in India where authorities have not yet allowed them to open.
The cost-saving measures we took together with less tied up capital contributed to a positive cash flow and resulted in decreased net debt. Another positive factor is that our liquidity preparedness continues to be good and we still have cash and unutilized credit lines amounting to more than SEK 1.2 billion.
Entering the second quarter we saw a wave of worries on the horizon, but we have worked our way through it and come out better than expected. The crisis is in no way over, but we are well prepared to handle it. We are therefore cautiously optimistic as we enter the third quarter now that most of our customers have started up their operations again. At the same time there is cause for considerable concern over how the COVID-19 pandemic will affect us going forward.

Net sales fell by three percent to MSEK 5,386 (5,525) compared to the same period last year. Cleared of exchange rate fluctuations and effects of acquisitions and divestures of operations, net sales contracted by five percent.
The COVID-19 outbreak had a very negative effect on both net sales and the result for the period. Our European operations were hit hardest. The drop in net sales in Europe was, however, compensated by some one-off deals. This one-time business consisted primarily of procuring, quality ensuring and shipping personal protective equipment from Asia to North and South America.
Supply Chain Solutions had negative organic growth of seven percent, but it varied slightly between regions. Operations in Asia showed strong growth generated primarily in customer segments

Electronics and Health Care & Life Science. The growth was partially driven by the one-off business mentioned above. Operations in Europe contracted, largely due to a decline in demand from Automotive, Fashion & Lifestyle and Industrial.
Net sales in business area Print & Packaging Solutions grew organically somewhat due to higher activity in the business with subscription boxes in the USA. Without this business net sales in Print & Packaging Solutions contracted by close to ten percent organically.
Adjusted EBITA, i.e. the operating result adjusted for amortization on assets identified in conjunction with acquisitions along with one-off items, contracted to MSEK 153 (235), which corresponded to an EBITA margin of 2.8 (4.2) percent. Less demand as a result of the coronavirus and customers closing their production plants due to component shortages led to a dramatically lower result, primarily in our European operations. The drop in the result was partially mitigated by the COVID-19 pandemic related government grants and cost reductions that the Group has received. The design of these relief packages has been different from one country to the next, but they have mostly been centered around reducing costs for employees and premises. In addition to this, in some countries, employees have personally received federal aid connected to short-term furloughs. To handle the drop in the demand the Group has, where possible, tried to furlough part of the workforce. During April and May nearly 2,000 employees were completely or partially furloughed in turns.
Net sales increased by four percent to MSEK 2,814 (2,719) compared to the same period last year. Cleared of exchange rate fluctuations and effects of acquisitions and divestures of operations, net sales increased by two percentage points.
Adjusted EBITA, i.e. the operating result adjusted for amortization on assets identified in conjunction with acquisitions along with one-off items, contracted to MSEK 72 (122), which corresponded to an EBITA margin of 2.6 (4.5) percent. The Asian operations in Supply Chain Solutions performed better than last year while the challenges for our European operations in Supply Chain Solutions and Print & Packaging Solutions were greater during the quarter. Weaker demand, resulting from the coronavirus, along with customers shutting down factories due to component shortages led to a dramatic drop in the result. This was partially mitigated by the governments grants and cost relief received.
Elanders is one of the leading companies in the world in Global Supply Chain Management. Our services include taking responsibility for and optimizing customers' material and information flows, everything from sourcing and procurement combined with warehousing to after sales service.

The business area Supply Chain Solutions was severely affected by the coronavirus, but it affected operations to a different degree at different points in time. Until the end of the first quarter it primarily had a negative impact in Asia where, among other things, the Chinese New Year was extended and major disruptions occurred in the supply chains of our Electronics and Fashion & Lifestyle customers. It also created major disruptions in shipping and air freight. At the end of the quarter the problems spread to Europe where countries closed their borders, component shortages occurred and

quarantines and isolation were put into effect in several countries. That was when Automotive and Industrial began to feel the effects to a greater extent and several of the Group's largest customers chose to shut down production because of disruptions in supply chains and component shortages. Part of the problems for Fashion & Lifestyle continued since social distancing in Europe and the USA meant a dwindling number of people bought clothes in brick and mortar shops even though higher volumes in e-commerce compensated for this to some extent.
Since the middle of May customers in Europe have begun to start up production again and demand has increased. However, the rate of production is much lower than before the virus outbreak.
The customer segments that have come through the best are Electronics and Health Care & Life Science, where demand has been stable and even grown. More and more people being ordered to work at home created a strong demand for laptops, computer accessories and network equipment. The pandemic also increased the demand for personal protective equipment.
Through its innovative force and global presence, the business area Print & Packaging offers cost-effective solutions that can handle customers' local and global needs for printed material and packaging, often in combination with advanced order platforms on the Internet, value-added services and just-in-time deliveries.

Print & Packaging Solutions was relatively unaffected by the coronavirus outbreak until the middle of March when almost all major customers in Automotive and Industrial shut down production and didn't start up again until May or June. The shutdowns and general decline in demand for things like marketing material had a very negative effect on the outcome in the second quarter. However, the business with subscription boxes in the USA continued to show strong growth, which meant the business area as a whole grew by three percent organically during the first half-year. Net sales contracted in all the other units. Without the subscription box, business net sales were down organically by ten percent, primarily due to the outbreak of COVID-19. Although customers have started up production again, capacity is reduced.
The coronavirus, COVID-19, has quickly spread during 2020 and developed into a pandemic with a large number of infected. The measures taken by different governments to limit the spread of the virus has impacted financial activities and the Group's business in different ways:

There is a great deal of uncertainty about how long the coronavirus outbreak will continue, which makes it difficult to forecast its exact effect on Group business during the rest of 2020.
Net investments for the period amounted to MSEK 28 (81) and was mainly related to production equipment. Depreciation, amortization and write-downs amounted to MSEK 448 (455).
Net investments for the quarter amounted to MSEK 13 (53) and depreciation, amortization and writedowns amounted to MSEK 219 (231).
Operating cash flow for the period amounted to MSEK 635 (641) and was partly helped by a reduced working capital.
Net debt decreased to MSEK 3,412 compared to MSEK 3,961 at the beginning of the year. The change includes an increase of MSEK 25 due to changes in exchange rates since a large part of loans and leasing liabilities are in euros and a lesser amount in US dollars. Leverage, i.e. net debt / adjusted EBITDA for a rolling 12-month period is now down to 2.5. Excluding effects from IFRS 16 net debt / adjusted EBITDA ratio is down to 2.9 (3.3).
The Group today has a good liquidity buffer, both in the form of existing cash and unutilized credit facilities. Together, these amount to more than SEK 1.2 billion.
The Group's agreements with the main banks contain financial conditions that must be met to secure the financing. These consist, among other things, of investment levels and the net debt / EBITDA ratio. The calculations exclude IFRS 16 effects and certain one-off items. All financial conditions were met as of the balance sheet date.
Operating cash flow for the quarter increased to MSEK 279 (251) and was partly helped by a reduced working capital, but also lower investments.
The average number of employees during the period was 6,426 (6,704), whereof 143 (152) in Sweden. At the end of the period the Group had 6,234 (6,764) employees, whereof 138 (157) in Sweden.
The average number of employees during the quarter was 6,316 (6,753), whereof 139 (155) in Sweden.
The parent company has provided intragroup services. The average number of employees during the period was 11 (11) and at the end of the period 10 (11).

Elanders offers integrated and customized solutions for handling all or part of our customers' supply chain. The Group can take complete responsibility for complex and global deliveries that may include purchasing, storage, configuration, production and distribution. We also offer order management solutions, payment flows and aftermarket services for our customers.
The services are provided by business-minded employees who, with their expertise and aided by intelligent IT solutions, contribute to developing our customers' offers which are often totally dependent on efficient product, component and service flows as well as traceability and information. In addition to our offer to the B2B market the Group sells photo products directly to consumers via our own brands, fotokasten and myphotobook.
Elanders' overall goal is to be a leader in global solutions in supply chain management with a world class integrated offer. Our strategy is to work in niches in each business area where the company can attain a leading position in the market. We will achieve this goal by being best at meeting customers' demands for efficiency and delivery. Acquisitions play an important role in our company's development and provide competence, broader product and service offers and enlarge our customer base.
Elanders divides risks into circumstantial risk (the future of our products/services and business cycle sensitivity), financial risk (currency, interest, financing and credit risks) as well as business risk (customer concentration, operational risks, risks in operating expenses as well as contracts and disputes). These risks, together with a sensitivity analysis, are described in detail in the Annual Report 2019.
Since the Annual Report was published the coronavirus outbreak and the measures taken by different governments to prevent it spreading affected Group business negatively during the latter part of the first quarter and during the second quarter. In addition to the already known effects the virus outbreak has an impact on macro financial uncertainty and a decline in financial activity. The extent and duration of this pandemic is unknown, but it is expected to further impact operations going forward.
Apart from the above, since the Annual report was signed, no other circumstances are believed to have caused any significant risks or influenced the way in which the Group works with these compared to the description in the Annual Report 2019.
The Group's net sales, and thereby income, are affected by seasonal variations. Historically the fourth quarter has been somewhat stronger than the other quarters.
The following significant transactions with related parties have occurred during the period:
Remuneration is considered on par with the market for all of these transactions.
Besides what have been described in this report, no other major events have taken place between the balance sheet date and the date this report was signed.

No forecast is given for 2020.
The quarterly report for the Group has been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and for the parent company in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act. The same accounting principles and calculation methods as those in the last Annual Report have been used. For the government grants that Elanders received during the reporting period, the accounting principle described below has been applied.
Government grants are recognized in the balance sheet as prepaid income when there is reasonable assurance that grants will be received and that Elanders will meet the conditions associated with the grants. Grants are reported as a cost reduction and accrued over the same periods as the related costs that the grant is intended to compensate.
The company auditors have not reviewed this report.

Revenue has been divided into geographic markets, main revenue streams and customer segments since these are the categories the Group uses to present and analyze revenue in other contexts. Income for each category is presented per reportable segment. The Group's customer contracts are easy to identify and products and services in a contract are largely connected and dependent on each other, and therefore part of an integrated offer.
Main revenue streams are presented based on the internal names used in the Group. Sourcing & Procurement services refer to the purchase and procurement of products for customers as well as handling the flows connected to these products. Freight and transportation services refer to revenue from freight and transportation with our own trucks as well as pure freight forwarding. Other supply chain services such as fulfilment, kitting, warehousing, assembly and after sales services are presented under Other contract logistics services. Other work/services refer to pure print services and other services that do not fit into any of the first three categories.
Intra-group invoicing regarding group functions is reported net in net sales to group companies.

The financial instruments recognized at fair value in the Group's report on financial position are derivatives identified as hedging instruments. The derivatives consist of forward contracts and are used for hedging purposes. Valuation at fair value of forward contracts is based on published forward rates on an active market. All derivates are therefore included in level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Since all the financial instruments recognized at fair value are included in level 2 there have been no transfers between valuation levels.
Derivative instruments in hedge accounting relationships recognized at fair value is presented under other current assets and non-interest bearing short-term liabilities. These items gross are below MSEK 1 both per 30 June 2020 and the comparison periods.
The fair value of other financial assets and liabilities valued at their amortized purchase price is estimated to be equivalent to their book value.
