GROWING INTEREST FROM THE US

Our efforts in the UK indicate that our success is no coincidence. Success requires products of the highest quality, as well as patience. RaySearch's approach has always been long-term, even now in our offensive global marketing campaign. The aim of this initiative is to reach even more cancer centers and to expand our services to the many large and leading cancer centers that are already our customers and business partners. This initiative has already led to a sharply growing interest among many cancer centers in several markets, including the US. That is promising. Sales cycles are typically long in our industry, as already mentioned. Our goal is that our intensive dialogues with a large number of cancer centers will start to generate positive financial results in the second half of 2019.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF RAYCARE CONTINUES

RaySearch has always been a constantly evolving company and that applies even more now. In 2018, we increased our pace with two annual updates of RayStation, instead of one. A new chapter commenced when RayCare, our innovative oncology information system, was put into clinical use for the first time. Our strong development activities will continue unabated in 2019. For example, we will be adding more functionality to RayCare, some of which has already been presented and wellreceived at the ESTRO congress in Milan, Italy, at the end of April. RayCare is already the leading system on the market for simplifying and streamlining the highly complex workflows of cancer centers. We are determined to advance our leading position during the year.

CEO COMMENTS

A STRONG START TO THE YEAR

The year opened robustly for RaySearch. Order intake rose 57 percent and net sales 49 percent. Operating profit improved 65 percent and we noted a positive cash flow before financing activities. This demonstrates clearly that our strategy is working as planned and that RaySearch's innovative software solutions for improved cancer treatment are continuously winning new ground.

The UK is a prime example. Our treatment planning system, RayStation, is well known across the country as an industry leader in terms of efficiency and precision. Our market share is continuously growing due to the positive experience of these UK centers. RayStation is now used by nearly one third of all UK cancer centers. We are very pleased that an additional five UK cancer centers chose RayStation in the first quarter of the year and we are looking forward

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ORDER INTAKE

In the first quarter of 2019, order intake rose 57.0 percent to SEK 201.6 M (128.4), of which order intake for RayStation, RayCare and RayCommand rose 64.1 percent to SEK 194.1 M (118.3).

At March 31, 2019, the total order backlog amounted to SEK 876.9 M (642.5), which is expected to generate revenue of approximately SEK 300 M over the next 12 months.

REVENUE

In the first quarter of 2019, net sales rose 48.9 percent to SEK 173.1 M (116.3). The improvement was mainly due to higher support revenue and license sales for RayStation, increased hardware sales and positive currency effects. Organic sales growth was 41.9 (-3.2) percent.

The application of IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers from January 1, 2018 temporarily reduced the company's revenue recognition in 2018 and accounts for nearly half of the increase in support revenue from RayStation during the first quarter compared with the year-earlier period.

Reported net sales accounted for 86 percent (91) of total order intake in the first quarter.

In the first quarter, net sales had the following geographic distribution: North America, 40 percent (53); Asia, 3 percent (8); Europe and the rest of the world 57 percent (39).

License revenue for RayStation rose 23 percent to SEK 92.3 M (75.0). Recurring support revenue rose 114 percent to SEK 41.8 M (19.5), accounting for 24.1 percent (16.8) of net sales in the first quarter. Hardware sales, which have a limited profit margin, rose 172 percent to SEK 30.0 M (11.0). Excluding hardware sales, sales rose 36 percent.

Revenue from sales of software modules via partners declined 18 percent to SEK 11.0 M (12.1), representing 6 percent (9) of net sales.

OPERATING PROFIT

In the first quarter of 2019, operating profit increased to SEK 23.2 M (14.1), representing an operating margin of 13.4 percent (12.1). The earnings improvement was mainly due to increased support revenue and license sales for RayStation, and positive currency effects.

In the first quarter, operating expenses increased 46.7 percent to SEK 149.8 M (102.1). This was largely due to increased cost of hardware sold and increased number of employees, but also higher costs for premises and depreciation. During the quarter, a provision of SEK 3.8 M was also set aside for anticipated credit losses.

Due to the application of IFRS 16 Leases on January 1, 2019, operating profit was impacted by a decline in operating lease charges and increased depreciation. In the first quarter of 2019, IFRS 16 had a positive impact of SEK 0.7 M on operating profit.

Other operating income and expenses pertain to exchange-rate gains and losses. In the first quarter 2019, the net of these exchange-rate gains and losses amounted to SEK 10.5 M (6.4) since a large proportion of the Group's receivables are denominated in USD and EUR, which strengthened against the SEK in the first quarter compared with the end of the fourth quarter. Adjusted for these currency effects, operating expenses would have increased 45.6 percent in the first quarter of 2019.

Currency effects

The company is impacted by USD and EUR to SEK exchange-rate trends, since the majority of sales are invoiced in USD and EUR, while most costs are in SEK.

At unchanged exchange rates, organic sales growth was 41.9 percent in the first quarter of 2019, compared with the yearon-year period. In addition, the company also had exchange-rate gains of SEK 10.5 M (6.4) for balance sheet items in the first quarter.

Currency effects therefore had a positive impact on net sales and operating profit in the first quarter 2019.

A sensitivity analysis of the company's currency exposure shows that a 1-percentage point change in the USD exchange rate against the SEK would have impacted consolidated operating profit by approximately +/- SEK 3.5 M, while a corresponding change in the EUR exchange rate would have impacted consolidated operating profit by approximately +/- SEK 1.5 M in the first quarter of 2019.

The company follows the financial policy established by the Board, whereby exchange-rate fluctuations are not hedged.

Capitalization of development costs

RaySearch is a research and development-oriented company that makes significant investments in the development of various software solutions for improved cancer treatment. At March 31, 2019, some 153 employees (146) were engaged in research and development, corresponding to 50 percent (53) of the total number of employees.

costs

In the first quarter of 2019, research and development costs decreased 0.1 percent to SEK 50.3 M (50.4), corresponding to 29 percent (43) of the company's net sales. The decrease was largely attributable to fewer consultants for RayCare. Development costs of SEK 38.2 M (38.7) were capitalized, corresponding to 76 percent (77) of total research and development costs. Amortization of capitalized development costs rose 15.9 percent to SEK 26.8 M (23.1), and the increase was due to the expansion of development activities for RayStation and RayCare.

After adjustments for capitalization and amortization of development costs, research and development costs rose 12.1 percent to SEK 39.0 M (34.8).

Amortization and depreciation

In the first quarter of 2019, total amortization and depreciation increased 67.1 percent to SEK 42.8 M (25.6), of which amortization of intangible fixed assets accounted for SEK 26.8 M (23.1), mainly related to capitalized development costs.

Depreciation of tangible fixed assets increased to SEK 16.0 M (2.5), primarily due to the company's investments in new offices, but also the application of IFRS 16.

PROFIT AND EARNINGS PER SHARE

In the first quarter of 2019, profit after tax was SEK 17.2 M (11.8), corresponding to earnings per share of SEK 0.50 (0.34) before and after dilution.

Tax expense for the quarter was SEK -4.6 M (expense: -2.1), corresponding to an effective tax rate of 21.3 percent (15.0).

CASH FLOW AND LIQUIDITY

In the first quarter of 2019, cash flow from operating activities was SEK 50.3 M (56.0). The decline was mainly attributable to a marginal increase in working capital due to the sharp sales growth this year, while working capital declined sharply in the preceding year. Working capital mainly comprises various types of customer receivables, such as accounts receivable and current and long-term unbilled customer receivables in instances where payment plans exist.

At the end of the period, the company's total customer receivables accounted for 67 percent (68) of net sales over the past 12 months, and working capital for 37 percent (46) of net sales during the same period.

Our payment model

A typical transaction for RaySearch involves various performance obligations, such as the delivery of licenses, hardware, support and training.

When RaySearch has fulfilled its performance obligation to a customer, for example, delivered licenses, and an unconditional right to consideration exists, a revenue and corresponding receivable are recognized.

A number of payment alternatives are subsequently available:

  • Payment within an invoice period of 30 or 60 days from delivery.
  • Payment over a certain period, normally 6 to 12 months from delivery.

In the vast majority of cases, payment is received for hardware and support within 30 to 60 days. However, RaySearch has a high proportion of new customers and it is common that new customers require up to 12 months to acquire and install separate ITinfrastructure to gain maximum performance from our software. Accordingly, many new customers opt for a payment plan for our licenses, resulting in a subsequent delay in RaySearch invoicing the customer and receiving payment.

Irrespective of the payment model, a revenue and its corresponding receivable are recognized when the company has fulfilled its performance obligation. RaySearch has three types of customer receivables: Accounts receivable (current billed customer receivables) and, in the event of a payment plan, Current and Long-term unbilled customer receivables.

The increase in unbilled customer receivables over the past year was the result of more agreements with payment plans, primarily in North America. RaySearch assesses that the credit risk is low since the customers are institutions with high credit ratings.

The business model is tried, tested and effective. RaySearch's total credit losses (confirmed and probable) only amount

In the first quarter, cash flow from investing activities was SEK -45.4 M (-43.1). Investments in intangible fixed assets amounted to SEK 38.2 M (38.8), mainly comprising capitalized development costs for RayStation and RayCare. Investments in tangible fixed assets amounted to SEK 7.3 M (4.3), mainly comprising investments in the company's new offices in North America. to 0.5 percent of total sales since the start in 2000.

In the first quarter, cash flow before financing activities was SEK 4.9 M (13.0).

Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK -6.7 M (-0.6) in the first quarter of 2019, mainly attributable to the new payment of lease liabilities under IFRS 16.

In the first quarter, cash flow for the period amounted to SEK -1.8 M (12.3). At March 31, 2019, consolidated cash and cash equivalents was SEK 113.0 M (117.9).

FINANCIAL POSITION

At March 31, 2019, RaySearch's total assets amounted to SEK 1,293 M (933) and the equity/assets ratio was 52.0 percent (63.5). IFRS 16 Leases has been applied since January 1, 2019, which increases the company's total assets. Without application of the new accounting policies, the equity/assets ratio would have been 59.6 percent.

Current receivables amounted to SEK 508 M (431). The receivables mainly comprised various types of customer receivables, and the increase was primarily due to more agreements including payment plans.

In the fourth quarter of 2017, the company signed a six-year rental lease for a new office space in San Francisco with commencement in the second quarter of 2018, and a ten-year rental lease for a new office space in New York with commencement in the third quarter of 2018. In 2018, the company also signed a three-year rental lease for additional office space in Stockholm with commencement in the third quarter of 2018.

In 2017, the company's line of credit was increased from SEK 100 M to SEK 350 M. The credit line expires in May 2022 and comprises a revolving loan facility of up to SEK 300 M, and an overdraft facility of SEK 50 M. Chattel mortgages amounted to SEK 100 M. At March 31, 2019, a short-term loan of SEK 124 M (74) was raised under the company's revolving loan facility and SEK 0 M (0) of the credit facility had been drawn.

At March 31, 2019, the Group's net debt amounted to SEK 181.6 M (-34.7). IFRS 16 Leases has been applied since January 1, 2019, which increases the company's net debt, mainly because the remaining lease commitments are recognized as liabilities on the balance sheet. Without application of the new accounting policies, net debt would have amounted to SEK 17.8 M.

EMPLOYEES

In the first quarter of 2019, the average number of employees in the Group was 299 (267). At the end of the first quarter, the Group had 307 (273) employees, of whom 228 (213) were based in Sweden, and 79 (60) in foreign subsidiaries.

PARENT COMPANY

RaySearch Laboratories AB (publ) is the Parent Company of the RaySearch Group. Since the Parent Company's operations are consistent with the Group's operations in all material respects, the comments for the Group are also largely relevant for the Parent Company.

Differences in profitability between the Parent Company and the Group are attributable to the Parent Company accounting for a relatively high proportion of operating expenses, and to the capitalization of development costs being recognized in the Group but not in the Parent Company.

The Parent Company's current receivables mainly comprise receivables from Group companies and external customers.

RayStation has been selected by several leading cancer centers, including Oklahoma Proton Center and Hoag Memorial Hospital in the US, Velindre Cancer Center and Cambridge University Hospitals in the UK and Universitätsklinikum Düsseldorf in Germany.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

As a global Group with operations in different parts of the world, RaySearch is exposed to various risks and uncertainties, such as market risk, operational risk and financial risk.

For more information about risks and risk management, refer to pages 9-10 and 36-38 of RaySearch's 2018 Annual Report.

SEASONAL VARIATIONS

RaySearch's operations are somewhat characterized by seasonal variations that are typical for the industry, whereby the fourth quarter is normally the strongest – mainly because many customers have budgets that follow the calendar year.

ENVIRONMENT AND SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainability is a key aspect of RaySearch's strategy and operations, and the company is working actively to become a sustainable enterprise. The primary aim of RaySearch's operations is to help cancer centers improve and save the lives of cancer patients. With our innovative software solutions, we are continuously striving to improve and streamline workflows in clinical environments and to improve treatment outcomes for cancer patients. The customer value we create presents business opportunities for RaySearch, but also major social benefit and economic gains.

The negative environmental impact of the company's products is limited. The company's environmental impact is mainly related to the purchase of goods and services, energy use and transportation.

NOTES, GROUP

NOTE 1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The RaySearch Group applies International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU. The accounting policies applied are consistent with those described in the 2018 Annual Report for RaySearch Laboratories AB (publ), which is available at www.raysearchlabs.com This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The Parent Company applies the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. The interim report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, Chapter 9, Interim report.

New or revised accounting standards applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019.

IFRS 16 Leases has been applied since January 1, 2019. The application of IFRS 16 entails that identified leases, primarily rental leases, will be recognized on the balance sheet. This will, in turn, impact numerous financial performance measures and key figures, such as EBITDA, operating profit, net financial items, shareholders' equity, return on equity and net debt. RaySearch has elected to apply the standard's modified retrospective method, which means that no comparative figures will be restated. The lease liability is measured at the present value of the lease payments over the remaining lease term, and the right-of-use asset for all contracts equals the calculated depreciated value from the lease commencement, with adjustment for the interest rate that applied on the transition date. RaySearch has also elected to apply the exemption rules for short-term leases and leases where the underlying asset is of low value. In addition, RaySearch has elected not to reassess if a contract is, or contains, a lease at the date of initial application. Nor does RaySearch exclude non-lease components in any contracts.

For leases previously classified as finance leases under IAS 17, the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset and lease liability was measured at January 1, 2019 at the carrying amount of the lease asset and lease liability under IAS 17 immediately prior to that date.

When transitioning to IFRS 16, the Group recognized new right-of-use assets at SEK 165 M and new lease liabilities at SEK 167 M, of which current lease liabilities account for SEK 31 M. The difference between assets and liabilities depends on prepaid lease payments recognized as assets on December 31, 2018, which were added to right-of-use assets at January 1, 2019. There was also an impact of SEK 2 M on shareholders' equity due to measuring the right-of-use asset as if the standard had been applied since the lease commencements. At the end of the quarter, the lease liability amounted to SEK 140 M. The right-of-use assets are presented on the right-of-use assets line on the consolidated balance sheet and the lease liabilities are presented as line items under long-term financial liabilities and current financial liabilities. A summary of opening lease liabilities is presented in the table below:

AMOUNTS IN SEK 000s Jan 1, 2019
Operating lease commitments at December 31, 2018 181,478
Discounting with the Group's incremental borrowing rate -13,779
Plus: liabilities for finance leases at December 31, 2018 7,215
(Less): short-term leases expensed on a straight-line basis -125
(Less): leases for which the underlying asset is low value that are expensed on a straight-line basis -81
Lease liability recognized at January 1, 2019 174,708
-
of which current lease liability
34,262
-
of which long-term lease liability
140,446

When measuring the lease liability, the Group discounted the lease payments using the incremental borrowing rate at January 1, 2019. The weighted average interest rate used varies between 1.5 and 3 percent, depending on the incremental rate of each Group company.

In accordance with IFRS 16 transition options, the lease liability for leases previously classified as financial leases has, in the initial amount for 2019 as specified above, been recognized at the same amount as at the end of 2018.

The recorded right-of-use assets and leasing liability have changed in the following manner during the period:

NOTE 4 ESTIMATES

Preparation of the interim report requires that company management make estimates that affect the carrying amounts. The actual outcome could deviate from these estimates. The critical sources of uncertainty in the estimates are the same as those in the most recent Annual Report.

NOTE 5 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

RaySearch's financial assets and liabilities comprise billed and unbilled receivables, cash and cash equivalents, accrued expenses, accounts payable, bank loans and finance leases. Long-term receivables are discounted, while other financial assets and liabilities have short maturities. Accordingly, the fair values of all financial instruments are deemed to correspond approximately to their carrying amounts.

The provision for expected credit losses is a weighted assessment of payment history, reports from external credit rating agencies and other customer-specific information. At the end of March 2019, the credit loss provision was SEK 19.1 M (6.2). During the quarter, the company's assessment of a few receivables changed and a new provision of SEK 3.8 M was added. Historically, the Group's credit losses have been limited. Since the company was founded in 2000, actual credit losses have amounted to 0.03 percent and provisions for probable credit losses have amounted to 0.5 percent of total sales.

NOTE 6 RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

No transactions were conducted between RaySearch and related parties with any material impact on the company's position and earnings during the period.

VISION AND BUSINESS CONCEPT

The company's vision is a world where cancer is conquered and RaySearch's business concept is to provide innovative software to continuously improve cancer treatment.

STRATEGY

A radiation therapy center essentially needs two software platforms for its operations: a treatment planning system, and an information system. With RayStation and RayCare, RaySearch will strengthen its position and continue to grow with high profitability. The strategy rests on a strong focus on software development, leading functionality, broad support for many different types of treatment techniques and radiation therapy devices, as well as extensive investments in research and development.

BUSINESS MODEL

RaySearch's revenues are generated when customers pay an initial license fee for the right to use RaySearch's software and an annual service fee for access to updates and support. The RayStation treatment planning system and the RayCare oncology information system are developed at RaySearch's head office in Stockholm, and distributed and supported by the company's global marketing organization.
