Danish subsidiany Pavilon,
As expected, the early arrival of autumn had a negative effect on sales in the fourth quarter, but a strong gross margin and solid cost control led to an operating profit (EBITA) in line with the same quarter last year.
Sales in the fourth quarter decreased 4.9 percent, driven by the negative weather effect. Byggmax likefor-like sales developed like other autumns with similar weather effects. In 2019, sales increased 3.3 percent.
Gross margin for the fourth quarter increased to a strong 33.3 percent (31.3). The increase was driven by purchasing improvements and positive price/mix effects from our upgraded customer offer. The unfavorable weather added to the positive mix effect. Currency effects were negative.
Cost control remained strong. Comparable costs, i.e., costs excluding new Byggmax stores, was largely unchanged in the fourth quarter.
Operating profit for the fourth quarter was in line with last year, with EBITDA excl. IFRS16 at SEK 25.5 M (27.5)
and EBITA to SEK -5.7 M (-6.4). For 2019, EBITA increased 24 percent to SEK 269.7 M (217.8), and the EBITA margin was 5.1 percent (4.3), an increase of +0.8%-points.
Market development in the fourth quarter was impacted by a clear negative weather effect. Autumn arrived very early compared to last year's favorable mild weather. We estimate that the Nordic consumer market for building materials declined 5-8 percent, with a larger decrease for outdoor products.
The decline in Swedish house transactions, that started when new mortgage amortization regulations were introduced in 2016, has clearly decreased renovation demand. This trend may now have come to an end, as house transactions stabilized during the first half of 2019, and increased during the second half1.
In the fourth quarter, the Byggmax segment2 sales decreased -5.6 percent, and like-for-like sales -10.3 percent. Sales developed in line with the fourth quarter 2016, that also experienced clear negative weather effects compared to a strong previous year. EBITA amounted to SEK -3.8 M (3.1).
The Store 3.0 initiative continues meet expectations of sales growth of ca 3 percent per store. During the fourth quarter, we converted a further 11 stores to Store 3.0, to a total of 30 (19% of the portfolio).
E-commerce initiatives like collect@store generated growth, and new stores continued to perform well. Non-comparable stores generated 5 percent sales growth in the quarter, and an impact on EBITA of SEK 1.3 M. No new stores opened during the quarter (11 for the year), and one store in Finland was closed.
The transformation of Skånska Byggvaror continued to give good effects, and profitability improved for the sixth consecutive quarter. Sales increased 1.9 percent, and EBITA improved to SEK -4.6 M (-8.0). Order intake in the period increased somewhat. We continue to build for growth through initiatives within core assortment and digital sales and marketing.
been affected by the slower house market, we are moving into 2020 with a stronger position. We have:
increased 0.7%-points and both customer satisfaction
2019 a year in the right direction
In 2019, both customer metrics and financials
developed in the right direction. Operating margin
We now have a stronger position, with higher gross margin and increased cost efficiency. Although many things point in the right direction, we still have a way to reach our ambitious financial goals. The agenda for coming years will be a combination of proven sales driving initiatives and further improved efficiency.
In 2020, we plan to convert 30 stores to 3.0, grow our e-commerce, add 3-5 Garden departments and ca 10 new Byggmax stores, of which 5 the small format. We expect to end the year with ca 40% of our store portfolio as Store 3.0 (19% at end 2019). Our efforts to increase efficiency continue, supported by new tools and technology.
The Board of Directors propose a dividend of SEK 1.16 per share (0), in line with the financial goal of distributing 50 percent of net profit.
2019 was a year in the right direction. I look forward to give more of Byggmax to more customers in the future!

Market - potential for continued organic growth
The Byggmax Group conducts business in the Swedish, Norwegian and Finnish do-it-yourself market. The renovation market has over time grown at approximately the same rate as GDP. In the short term the market is highly impacted by weather conditions as they determine the prerequisites for customers to conduct outdoor projects.
Many Nordic towns still lack a low price retail option, which creates a potential for Byggmax to continue organic growth through successful store expansion.

Byggmax Group AB (publ) applies the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU. This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, the Annual Accounts Act and RFR 1 Supplementary Accounting Rules for Groups. The same accounting policies and measuring methods apply as in the 2018 Annual Report. The application of the accounting policies corresponds with the policies in the Annual Report for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018, with the exception of the introduction on January 1, 2019 of IFRS 16 Leasing.
The Parent Company's accounts have been prepared pursuant to the Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. The same accounting policies have been applied as for the Group except in those cases stated in the Parent Company's accounting policies section in the 2018 Annual Report, Note 2.18. The Parent Company has not applied IFRS 16.
Refer to the Annual Report for the 2018 fiscal year, notes 1–4, for a more detailed description of the accounting policies applied for the Group and the Parent Company in this interim report.
The interim data onpages 1-27 comprises an integrated part of this financial report.
Internal follow-up is provided for three segments. These three segments are Byggmax, Skånska Byggvaror and Other.
As of Q4 2019, the Byggmax Group has changed its internal monitoring and control, which is why Buildor and the distribution company Svea Distribution, previously reported in the segment Other, are now included in the Byggmax segment. The change has resulted in some changes in the financial reporting for the segments with revised comparative figures for the previous year.
The changes in operating of the segments also mean that the effects of IFRS 16 are excluded in the follow-up of the segments' EBITDA and EBITA. The effects of IFRS 16 will be followed up and reported at Group level. The profitability measurement used internally for monitoring and evaluating the business is an earnings before depreciation and write-downs of tangible and intangible assets (EBITDA).
No single part of the segment Other is of such materiality that it represents a reportable segment, which is why we have chosen to aggregate these.
IFRS 16 Leases was published in January 2016 by the IASB. The standard has been adopted by the EU and will replace IAS 17 Leases, as well as the appurtenant interpretations IFRIC 4. SIC-15 and SIC-27. IFRS 16 requires assets and liabilities attributable to all lease contracts, excepting brief agreements or agreements regarding low-value assets, to be recognized in the balance sheet.
This report is based on the view that the lessee is entitled to use an asset for a specific period of time while also having an obligation to pay for this entitlement.
This will result in the majority of current operating leases being recognized in the balance sheet beginning 1 January 2019.
The Group has conducted a complete review of all lease contracts, in which information was collected and compiled as a basis for calculations and quantification in connection with conversion to IFRS 16. In the Group, leases primarily relate to store leases. In connection with the transition to IFRS 16, the majority of these leases will be recognized in the balance sheet as assets with a right of use and a financial liability. The Group has decided to apply partial retroactive application, which means that comparison figures do not need to be recalculated and that there is no impact on opening shareholders' equity.
The Group will apply the following practical solutions allowed under the standard:
The Group's leases pertain to premises. The terms and conditions are negotiated separately for each lease and include a number of different contractual terms.
liability on the date the leased asset becomes available for use by the Group. Each lease payment breaks down into a debt repayment and a financial expense. The financial expense portion is allocated over the lease period so that an amount is recognized in every reporting period that corresponds to a fixed interest rate for the liability recognized in each period. Straight-line depreciation is applied to the right-of-use asset over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the term of the lease.
The lease period is defined as the date on which the lease starts until the first possible exit period.
Assets and liabilities that arise from leases are initially recognized at present value. Since this is the first report under IFRS 16, all rightof-use assets have been measured at the amount of the lease liability, with adjustment for prepaid lease payments attributable to the lease as of January 1, 2019.
The lease liability includes the present value of the following lease payments:
Lease payments are discounted using the incremental borrowing rate.
Right-of-use assets are measured at cost and include the following:
Low-value leases are expensed straight line in profit or loss.

Mattias Ankarberg President
The IFRS 16 accounting standard have been implemented from January 1, 2019. The majority of the company's lease agreements have been recognized in the balance sheet. In the Group, leases primarily related to store leases.
The effects on the carrying amounts are described on page 11.
Byggmax has chosen to apply a method that means that comparative figures, in other words 2018, will not be restated. To facilitate for the reader, in 2019 the company will include some key performance indicators for 2019 excluding the effects of IFRS 16 in its interim reporting. This is for the purpose of comparability between the years.
As a result of IFRS 16, from 2019, the profitability target will be
updated to an EBITA margin of 7-8 percent. The historic difference between EBITDA and EBITA has been around 2.5 percent. IFRS 16 entails a slightly positive effect on EBITA. Our ambitious targets for the operations remain unchanged and the profitability target is now formulated to comply with the new accounting policies that apply from 2019.

Leases for store premises are no longer classified in profit or loss as lease rents and are instead recognized as asset depreciation and interest expenses on the lease liability. This positively impacts the EBITDA metric and depreciation increases.
IFRS 16 has positively affected EBITA in an amount of SEK 17.7 M in of 2019, corresponding to an increase of 0.3 percentage points.
Profit and loss for the period has been negatively affected by SEK 10.8 M. The effect of SEK -10.8 M is explained by financial costs being a higher part of the lease debt at the beginning than at the end of the lease period while depreciation is linear.

Byggmax Group consists of Byggmax, Buildor and Skånska Byggvaror. The first Byggmax store opened the doors 1993 and 17 years later, 2010, Byggmax Group' s stock was listed on the Stockholm Stock Exchange. Byggmax has operations in Sweden, Norway and Finland.
Byggmax's business concept is to sell high-quality building supplies at the lowest price possible.
Byggmax offers affordable high-quality products for the most common maintenance and DIY projects. Since the start in 1993, the business has been characterized by the so-called "Byggmax concept" which has been decisive for the company's development. The concept is built on a limited product range. resource-efficient administration, strong company culture and a competitive and effective pricing strategy, as well as the stores' distinguished shape and design.
Byggmax has established the following long-term goals for the Group1:
The company's long-term financial targets were updated in connection with the launch of an updated strategy in June 2017. To realize the strategy, a number of initiatives to increase efficiency and the rate of growth were implemented in 2017 and will be implemented in 2018. As a result of IFRS 16, we have updated the formulation of our profitability target as follows: an EBITA margin of 7-8 percent.
Focus on organic growth based on existing strengths in store expansion, e-commerce and assortment development. To exemplify this strategy: in the summer of 2017, two tests were launched. The first was a condensed store format for smaller locations, and the second a garden concept in accordance with the Byggmax concept, with drive-in and an easy-to-buy, focused range of quality products and the market's lowest prices.
In conjunction with this, the financial targets have been updated to reflect a higher ambition. The target is organic growth of 10-15% per year, an EBITA margin of 7-8%, and a dividend of at least 50% of net profit
Byggmax has a resource-efficient organization with the majority of business activities managed centrally. Aside from the sales force, which is based in Byggmax stores, most business processes, includingByggmax's online sales, are managed across all stores by the head office in Solna, near Stockholm. In addition to the office in Solna, Skånska Byggvaror has an office in Helsingborg.
A number of factors can impact Byggmax's earnings and operations. Most of these factors can be managed through internal procedures, while certain factors are largely governed by external circumstances. For a more detailed description of the Group's risks and risk management, see the Annual Report. Apart from the risks described in the Annual Report, no material risks arose during the period.
The company's operations are affected by strong seasonal variations controlled by consumer demand for basic building supplies. Due to the weather's impact on demand, Byggmax's sales and cash flow are generally higher in the second and third quarters, when about two thirds of the company's sales are generated, while these usually decline in the fourth and first quarters. Although seasonal variations do not normally affect Byggmax's earnings and cash flow from year to year, earnings and cash flow may be impacted during the year by unusually harsh or mild weather conditions, or by excessive or insufficient precipitation. Byggmax endeavors to balance the seasonal effects by launching new products that are not as susceptible to seasonal variations.
Buildor.se has been a part of the Byggmax family since October 2015. Buildor.se was launched in 2013 with the goal of making it easier and more pleasant to shop for building supplies. Buildor offers a broad range of varied product categories at the market's most competitive prices for building supplies and interior fittings online.
Skånska Byggvaror has been a part of the Byggmax family since January 2016. Skånska Byggvaror was founded in 1965 and is an online Nordic distance retailer of value-added building products for the DIY market, with a particular strong presence within "Garden Living" categories, i.e., conservatories, green houses, and other garden buildings.
With internal product development and carefully selected suppliers, Skånska Byggvaror creates attractive products sold under its own brands. The path from idea to launch is and has always been short. This gives Skånska Byggvaror unique control over the assortment, in areas including quality, design and value. Since 2012. Skånska Byggvaror has successfully sold its products in Norway through the Grønt Fokus brand.

' From 2019 our profitability target has a result of IFRS 16 from EBITDA margin 9-10 percent per year to EBITA margin 7-8 percent per year.
Byggmax's ability to create value through its business is impacted in the long and short term by various external and internal factors. A selection of these are listed below.
