"Nederman's core business with products and services had a solid performance during the quarter within both EMEA and the USA. It was particularly pleasing to note the strong recovery in Europe in September after weak demand in June and July in the wake of the UK's decision to leave the EU. The European market is judged now to be considerably more stable than right after the UK referendum.
Our greatest challenge is the uncertainty around sales of major projects in the USA and China. Demand in the USA has been affected by the slowdown in industrial production in the last twelve months. A further factor that is deemed to have an effect on some investment decisions is the uncertainty associated with the forthcoming presidential election.
In China, we are seeing lower economic activity which limits the number of major investments and the economic development in the country is difficult to assess at the moment.
In the quarter, we completed the last measures relating to cost and structural adjustments in Thailand and Australia as planned. In the USA, the business for shock-absorbing cabinets for electronic equipment was phased out as planned and previously announced during the quarter.
The Group's operating profit in the quarter was satisfactory. Cash flow from operating activities has improved in comparison with the same period last year."
The Americas operating segment reported a solid performance by the core business. The decline in orders is due to the lack of major projects in the USA, which is seeing lower industrial activity as well as protracted decision-making processes partly influenced by uncertainty in the upcoming November election.
USA reported continued lower industrial production and uncertainty linked to the imminent US presidential election. This, together with lower activity within the mining and energy sectors, has led to a fall in demand for large systems. The American import duties on steel from China which were introduced earlier in the year are expected to lead in the longterm to improved business opportunities within the country's metal industries. The growth outlook for Mexico remains good for the end of 2016. The Brazilian economy is still weak, but the authorities' stricter requirements for compliance with the country's tough environmental laws have had a positive effect earlier in the year on the demand for Nederman's products and solutions.
The US market continues to be characterised by long drawn out decision-making processes, which have had a very negative effect on sales of large systems. During the quarter, the number of potential projects has also declined in certain sectors and the overall outlook for system sales in the coming quarters is weaker than before. The housing market continues to perform well in the US, which had a positive effect on Nederman's sales to the wood products industry. The core business with products and services, with the exception of sales related to the energy sector, had a solid performance in the quarter.
Canada had a weak performance in the quarter, but shows a positive trend for the first nine months. The positive development is primarily driven by an agreement with a national distributor in the welding segment.
business in the USA. Fewer major projects.
In Brazil, Nederman was affected in the quarter by the low economic activity in the country. After a strong first quarter, sales volume has been weaker and Brazil is now overall in line with the corresponding time in 2015.
Incoming orders amounted to SEK 290.1 m during the quarter. Organically, this corresponds to a decrease of 29.3% compared with the corresponding quarter of 2015.
The Incoming orders for the period January - September amounted to SEK 834.8m. Organically, this corresponds to a decrease of 25.0% compared with the corresponding quarter of 2015.
Net sales during the quarter amounted to SEK 318.9m. Organically, this corresponds to a decrease of 7.1% compared with the corresponding quarter of 2015.
Net sales for the period January - September amounted to SEK 955.7m. Organically, this corresponds to a decrease of 5.8% compared with the corresponding quarter of 2015.

EMEA had a weak incoming orders at the beginning of Q3, partly due to a temporary slowdown in the UK market in the wake of Britain's decision to leave the EU. Towards the end of the quarter, there was a significant increase in incoming orders in the UK and several other countries, which meant that the core business increased slightly compared to the same quarter last year. The absence of sales of large projects in the quarter and the weak start to the quarter meant that the incoming orders decreased organically by 2.5%.
There are still no clear signs of economic recovery within the EMEA region. Industrial investment remains at a low level, but the impression is that some recovery is starting to take place. The long term effects of the UK's decision to leave the EU remain difficult to assess. The political situation in Turkey and the conflict in Syria are having a strong negative impact on sales in this part of the EMEA.
The market in the UK and Ireland showed a marked slowdown after the referendum on an EU exit, but recovered strongly towards the end of the quarter. This meant that incoming orders decreased only marginally for the quarter as a whole. Core business developed positively in the quarter, but no major orders were booked, unlike the corresponding quarter of 2015.
In Germany, incoming orders developed positively during the third quarter, partly thanks to a major project for flue-gas treatment for a facility for fire testing.
In the Nordic region, new orders rose compared with the corresponding quarter in 2015 following strong growth in the core business in Denmark and Norway. The quarter also saw an order booked from a major manufacturer of wind turbines.
In the Benelux countries, the core business performed well, which meant that new orders overall were in line with the corresponding quarter in 2015 despite the fact that this year's quarter, in contrast to the same quarter last year, saw no major orders.
The Turkish market was very weak in the quarter as a result of the political situation. The Polish and Czech markets were also weak during the quarter.
Incoming orders amounted to SEK 322.5 during the quarter. Organically, this corresponds to a decrease of 2.5% compared with the corresponding quarter of 2015.
The incoming orders for the period January - September amounted to SEK 1,043.9m. Organically, this corresponds to a decrease of 2.6% compared with the corresponding quarter of 2015.
Net sales during the quarter amounted to SEK 355.8m. Organically, this corresponds to a decrease of 0.7% compared with the corresponding quarter of 2015.
Net sales for the period January - September amounted to SEK 1,046.5m. Organically, this corresponds to a decrease of 0.1% compared with the corresponding quarter of 2015.

Several markets in APAC had a positive development during the third quarter, including Southeast Asian countries (excluding Thailand) and India. Australia too saw the first signs of increased demand. Developments in China were weak in the quarter, mainly due to no major orders being booked as was also the case in the same period last year. The incoming orders for the operating segment as a whole amounted to SEK 84.0m (113.4).
Within the APAC region, there continues to be a number of significant business opportunities, although some industrial segments are characterised by weak demand and prolonged decision-making processes. In China, the new environmental law that took effect on January 1, 2016 means an increased focus on environmental issues, particularly in terms of pollutant emissions and dust explosions, which are a major risk in many industries and where the consequences can be devastating. However, there is inertia before the new legislation will lead to actual investments. India continues to show good growth, particularly within manufacturing industry which is posting double digit growth.
In China, orders decreased in the quarter, mainly due to the order in the third quarter of 2015 worth SEK 26m relating to gas treatment for a district heating plant that had no counterpart in this year's quarter. Core business also decreased in the quarter following a positive trend during the first half of the year
Southeast Asia, with the exception of Thailand, experienced a positive trend during the quarter. The incoming orders in Thailand continued to be weak. Restructuring of the product supply in Thailand has now been completed. Both Indonesia and Malaysia had a positive development in incoming orders in the quarter.
India also saw a development of incoming orders level in comparison with the corresponding period of 2015. Growth during the year has been good and is driven by the general high growth experienced by the country's manufacturing industries.
Positive trend in India. Weaker development in China. Positive signs in Australia.
In Australia, greater economic confidence can now be seen for the first time in several years. Nederman implemented measures to streamline operations in Australia earlier in 2016, which had a positive impact on profits this quarter.
The incoming orders during the quarter amounted to SEK 84.0 m. Organically, this corresponds to a decrease of 24.7% compared with the corresponding quarter of 2015.
The incoming orders for the period January - September amounted to SEK 283.1m. Organically, this corresponds to an increase of 8.8% compared with the corresponding quarter of 2015.
Net sales during the quarter amounted to SEK 117.3m. Organically, this corresponds to an increase of 17.9% compared with the corresponding quarter of 2015.
Net sales for the period January - September amounted to SEK 285.0m. Organically, this corresponds to an increase of 14.8% compared with the corresponding quarter of 2015.

The situation in Europe is stable with a cautiously positive development of Nederman's core business. In the US, we also see a continued stable development of sales of the Group's products and services, while uncertainty surrounding major
projects is expected to continue for a while. In China, economic activity is lower than before, which limits the number of major investments and it is difficult to evaluate the economic development in the country at the moment.
Nederman's Senior Vice President and CFO, Stefan Fristedt, has handed in his resignation in order to take up the position of Executive Vice President and CFO at Mölnlycke Health Care Group.
Matthew Cusick, currently CFO of the EMEA division, has been appointed Senior Vice President and CFO of the Nederman Group in his place. Matthew Cusick has been employed at Nederman since 2011 and besides being CFO for the EMEA division has held the role of Group Controller. Matthew also has experience from the Getinge Group in various roles as well as experience as an external auditor.
"I'm really pleased that we have found an internal candidate which ensures continuity and a controlled handover. Matthew has successfully developed within Nederman and has actively contributed to the good development in the EMEA division.
I would also like to thank Stefan for his significant contributions during his time at Nederman and wish him well in his future endeavours," says Nederman's CEO Sven Kristensson.
The organisational change will come into force on 1 November 2016.
Torbjörn Bäck, Senior Vice President and Divisional Director for APAC, has decided to move back to Sweden for family reasons. Torbjörn will leave the Group during Q1 2017. Sven Kristensson, CEO, will take over the role as Divisional Director until further notice.
"I would like to thank Torbjörn for his work for Nederman in his time with the company", comments Nederman's CEO Sven Kristensson.

Nederman's expertise and turnkey solutions within industrial air filtration protect people, machinery and the environment from the harmful effects of industrial processes. In this way Nederman helps to create safe work spaces, efficient production and significant environmental benefits. This interplay between health, environment and efficiency comes together to form the concept of eco-efficiency.
Eco-efficiency means that we contribute to both economic efficiency and long-term sustainable production. In terms of economy, it is about high production efficiency and product quality, machinery that has a long life and minimised environmental costs. From an environmental perspective it is about benefits from reduced emissions, more efficient use of materials and recycling, and lower energy consumption.
Nederman's customers are found in industries such as metal, wood and composite processing, food processing, pharmaceutical production, waste management, agriculture, textile industry, chemical industry, process industry, power generation and the automotive aftermarket.
Nederman has a strong global presence in regard to both sales and manufacturing. Sales are conducted through its own sales companies and distributors in over 50 countries. The main focus of sales is in Europe and North America, but Nederman is also active in a number of markets in Asia and South America. Manufacturing is carried out on five continents. Turnover in 2015 amounted to SEK 3.2 billion.
Nederman's aim is to achieve a sales growth of 8-10 percent over a business cycle and that an operating margin of at least reach 10 percent shall be achieved. To achieve these goals, Nederman is focusing on four priority areas:
During the last five years, sales growth has averaged 13.6 percent, which is significantly higher than the goal of 8-10
percent. During the period, the adjusted operating margin varied between 6.4 and 8.5 percent and in 2015 amounted to 8.2 per cent. The average dividend during the period was 48 percent of net profit.
Nederman's sales model is divided into three segments in order to deliver solutions to customers' challenges as effectively as possible.
Product sales Nederman has a wide range of standard products that solve common problems related to smoke, gas, dust, materials recycling, the working environment and efficient production. Product sales make up around 39 percent of group turnover.
Solutions Nederman's solutions are designed to solve more complex tasks and specific customer problems. Business activities include careful preliminary study of the customer's business operations and needs, planning and system design, installation, commissioning and training. Solution sales account for around 44 percent of turnover.
Service and aftermarket Service is an integral part of Nederman's offering and a focus area for growth. By offering qualified service with good availability, Nederman helps to ensure continuous operation without expensive interruptions to customers' production. Service and aftermarket makes up around 17 percent of turnover.

*) The Group holds financial instruments in the form of currency futures that are recorded at fair value in the balance sheet. The fair value of currency futures is determined by discounting the difference between the contracted forward rate and the forward rate that can be subscribed on the closing date for the remaining contracted period. Discounting is made using market rates. The fair value for all contracts has been determined from directly or indirectly observable market data, i.e. level 2 according to IFRS 7. For other financial instruments, the fair value and the book value are materially consistent. For further information, refer to note 24 in the 2015 Annual Report.
The acquisition analysis of the 2015 acquisition of National Conveyors Company Inc. (NCC) has been adjusted by SEK 5.2 million mainly due to the adjustment of the purchase price after the final calculation of net working capital. The adjustment has reduced goodwill by the same amount.
In addition to information on our reported IFRS results, we provide certain information on an underlying business performance basis. We believe that our underlying business performance measures provide meaningful supplemental information to both management, investors and other stakeholders. These underlying business performance measures should not be viewed in isolation or as substitutes to the equivalent IFRS measures, but should be used in conjunction with the most directly comparable IFRS measures in the reported results. This is a consistent application compared to previous periods. The following underlying business measures are used:
Adjusted operating profit Adjusted operating margin EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA

We have carried out a review of the interim financial information in summary (the interim report) for Nederman Holding AB as per 30 September 2016 and the nine-month period that ended on this date. The preparation of these accounts and their presentation in this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act is the responsibility of the Board of Directors and the CEO. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this interim report based on our review.
We have conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review of interim financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review has a different focus and is substantially narrower in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and generally accepted accounting principles in Sweden.
The audit measures taken in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might have been identified in an audit. The conclusion based on a review does not therefore have the assurance that a conclusion based on an audit has.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial information has not been prepared, in all material respects, for the Group in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, and for the parent company in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.
