Financial Targets and Long-term Growth Outlook

CEO Message

Series Production up 10% in the second quarter; positive long-term outlook

Series production in the second quarter finished at 3.4 million Engine Equivalents, up 10% from the first quarter volume of 3.1 million Engine Equivalents. The increase was primarily due to the continued ramp of the Traton Group 13 litre cylinder block and head, as series production for MAN increased through the quarter. Ford Super Duty pick-up truck production was also strong during the quarter. However, slow commercial vehicle sales in Europe and North America, and a slow start for commercial vehicle production at First Automobile Works in China limited the gains compared to the first quarter.

Year on year, second quarter production was down 15%, from 4.0 million Engine Equivalents, due to the combined effects of the stoppage of a high volume programme in September 2024 and slow market demand for commercial vehicles. The decline was comprised of approximately 520,000 Engine Equivalents from the stoppage programme, 350,000 Engine Equivalents from temporarily low commercial vehicle sales, and a combined increase of 270,000 Engine Equivalents from all other series production programmes.

Sales of the consumable Sampling Cup were strong during the second quarter, with 58,050 (56,700) units shipped. Overall, Sampling Cup shipments for the first half of the year amounted to 103,950 (101,300) units. The strong consumables sales contributed to year-to-date revenue of SEK 58.1 million (SEK 67.3 million), with 95.2% (95.5%) of the total revenue accounted for by recurring revenue. The recurring revenue is derived from the Production Fee levied for each Engine Equivalent, consumables and software licence fees. Benefitting from proactive cost reduction activities and currency revaluation gains primarily related to the longstanding US dollar hedge strategy, the year-to-date operating result finished at SEK 21.4 million (SEK 20.5 million), providing an operating margin of 36.8% (30.5%).

The second quarter also saw positive overall market development, with the announcement of three new high volume series production programmes. At mature volume, the combined contribution from these three programmes is forecast to be more than 500,000 Engine Equivalents per year. Specifically, Scania launched the 11 litre version of the current-production 13 litre commercial vehicle engine. The two engines boast 85% common components, including Compacted Graphite Iron cylinder blocks and heads produced using the SinterCast process control technology. In parallel, the Tupy foundry secured two new contracts to supply CGI cylinder blocks for 13-litre commercial vehicle engine programmes, one in Brazil and one in North America. Together with the programmes that are already in the ramp phase, these new programmes provide the building blocks for reaching the five million and six million Engine Equivalent milestones, while delivering on our projection that all commercial vehicle OEMs will adopt Compacted Graphite Iron before the end of this decade.

Tariffs and Emissions Legislation

The recent changes in international tariffs on vehicles and auto parts have created considerable uncertainty in the automotive sector. In the specific case of SinterCast, there are no cast iron cylinder block and head foundries in the United States. All cast iron cylinder blocks and heads are therefore imported, with the main sources being Mexico and Brazil, with some components coming from Europe and none, as yet, from Asia. As the US must import 100% of its cast iron cylinder blocks and heads, the tariffs are not expected to have a direct effect on the SinterCast series production volume. However, if new or future tariffs lead to a reduction in automotive sales, the decreased volume can have an indirect impact on SinterCast.

On 6 August, the Trump administration introduced new unilateral tariffs on many Brazilian goods. The new tariffs apply to goods that were either not addressed by previous tariffs or not included in specific exemption lists. As a result of the new tariffs, auto parts for passenger vehicles and pick-up trucks are currently subject to a 25% tariff while commercial vehicle parts are subject to a 50% tariff. Tupy, with its main manufacturing site in Brazil, has publicly commented on the potential to move some production to its foundries in Mexico or Portugal, which also have SinterCast installations. It is still too early to know how the tariffs and reactions will evolve; however, imbalanced tariffs can affect Tupy's competitive position.

On 13 June, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed new Renewable Fuels Standards to increase the domestic production and export of liquid biofuels. The proposals set the highest ever requirements for net-zero renewable fuel volume and provide certainty for new investment into renewable fuel production in the US. In parallel, the new EPA proposal removed electricity as a qualifying renewable fuel. The proposed standards will reduce the need for fossil based fuels by 150,000 barrels per day, eliminating approximately 24 million tonnes of CO2 per year by the end of 2027. The proposal reinforces the contribution that clean fuels can make to CO2 savings today, and the importance of focussing on the fuel rather than the powertrain in order to provide costeffective and sustainable transport solutions for the future. It is widely expected that the EU will also embrace netzero liquid fuels in the Sustainable Transport Investment Plan (STIP) scheduled to be published this autumn.

The improved strength of CGI enables increased combustion temperature and pressure in engines. This increase improves fuel efficiency, horsepower and torque. When using CGI, heavy-duty commercial vehicles typically achieve 5-10% improved fuel efficiency, providing significant CO2 savings. With approximately 13 million SinterCast-CGI vehicles on the road today, the SinterCast technology reduces CO2 emissions by approximately 10 million tonnes per year. We remain on pace to reach our goal of 100 million tonnes of cumulative CO2 reduction by 2028.

Installation campaign underway; intensified field activities in the second half

The second quarter marked the start of the 2025 installation campaign, with installation revenue of SEK 2.1 million (SEK 1.3 million). The second quarter benefitted from the 29 June installation acceptance at the Saroj foundry in India and strong aftermarket sales of spare parts. Installation activities are scheduled to intensify in the second half of the year, with firm orders already received from Maringá Soldas in Brazil and Qingdao Surefire (formerly Xu Ruifeng) in China. Discussions are ongoing for other new installations and for capacity upgrades, representing potential installation revenue of more than SEK 20 million. At the mid-year point, we are confident to exceed our historical full-year average installation revenue of SEK 8 million. However, because of the current economic uncertainties, it is not yet possible to determine if SinterCast will be able to secure and commission enough of the installation opportunities before year-end, in order to beat the SEK 11.4 million posted in 2024.

  1. Recurring revenue from production fees, consumables and software licence fees

2 Revenue from sold and leased CGI and Tracking system installations and spare parts

  1. Revenue from engineering service, demonstrations and test pieces

The April−June 2025 revenue decreased by 11.5% to SEK 31.1 million (SEK 35.1 million), primarily due to the combined impact of the stoppage of a high-volume programme in September 2024, and an ongoing slowdown in commercial vehicle sales offset by increased Equipment revenue following the installation of Mini-System 4000 and wirefeeder at the Saroj foundry in India. Recurring revenue from series production decreased by 14.5% amounting to SEK 28.7 million (SEK 33.6 million) and accounting for 92.3% (95.6%) of the total revenue. The total revenue was derived from annualised series production of 3.4 million (4.0 million) Engine Equivalents, shipment of 58,050 (56,700) Sampling Cups and equipment revenue of SEK 2.1 million (SEK 1.3 million). Engineering Service amounted to SEK 0.3 million (SEK 0.3 million). Exchange differences had a negative effect of 2.7% on revenue during the period.

The January−June 2025 revenue decreased by 13.6% to SEK 58.1 million (SEK 67.3 million), primarily due to the previously mentioned stoppage programme and slowdown in commercial vehicle sales. Recurring revenue from series production decreased by 13.9%, amounting to SEK 55.3 million (SEK 64.2 million) and accounting for 95.2% (95.5%) of the total revenue. The total revenue includes annualised series production of 3.25 million (3.95 million) Engine Equivalents, shipment of 103,950 (101,300) Sampling Cups and Equipment revenue of SEK 2.3 million (SEK 2.4 million), following the installation at the Saroj foundry in India and strong aftermarket sales of spare parts. Engineering Service amounted to SEK 0.5 million (SEK 0.6 million). Exchange differences had a negative effect of 3.2% on revenue during the period.

Results

The business activities of SinterCast are best reflected by the Operating Result. This is because the "Result for the period after tax" and the "Earnings per Share" are influenced by the revaluation of tax assets.

Results Summary April−June January−June
(Amounts in SEK million if not otherwise stated) 2025 2024 2025 2024
Gross margin, % 71.3 74.9 70.4 72.6
Operating result 11.2 13.1 21.4 20.5
Operating margin, % 36.1 37.4 36.8 30.5
Result for the period after tax 8.8 10.5 16.4 16.6
Earnings per share (SEK) 1.24 1.48 2.33 2.35

The April−June 2025 operating result decreased by SEK 1.9 million to SEK 11.2 million (SEK 13.1 million), due to the combined effect of SEK 4.2 million decrease in gross margin, SEK 1.3 million decrease in operating costs and SEK 1.0 million in improved other operating net cost and income. The decrease in operating costs is primarily related to the reduction in headcount following proactive redundancies effected during 2024. Other operating costs and income combined improved by SEK 1.0 million, primarily due to movements in foreign currencies resulting in unrealised revaluation losses of existing hedge contracts reverted into unrealised gains. The result for the period after tax decreased by SEK 1.7 million to SEK 8.8 million (SEK 10.5 million), primarily due to the SEK 1.9 million decrease in operating result and the decrease in calculated income tax of SEK 0.2 million.

The January–June 2025 operating result increased by SEK 0.9 million to SEK 21.4 million (SEK 20.5 million), due to the combined effect of a SEK 2.2 million decrease in operating costs, improved other operating cost and net income of SEK 6.6 million, and a SEK 7.9 million decrease in gross margin. The decrease in operating costs is primarily related to the reduction in headcount following proactive redundancies effected during 2024. Other operating costs and income combined improved by SEK 6.6 million, primarily due to movements in foreign currencies resulting in unrealised revaluation losses of existing hedge contracts reverted into unrealised gains. The result for the period after tax decreased by SEK 0.2 million to SEK 16.4 million (SEK 16.6 million), primarily due to the SEK 0.9 million decrease in operating result and the increase in calculated income tax of SEK 1.1 million.

Income Tax and Deferred Tax Asset

Tax cost for the January−June 2025 period amounted to SEK 4.9 million (SEK 3.8 million). The Group's total carried forward tax losses, remaining to be utilised, are calculated to be SEK 180.4 million (SEK 228.2 million), resulting in a deferred tax asset of SEK 37.2 million (SEK 47.0 million). As a result of the current market uncertainty and USD / SEK exchange rates, it is estimated that the timeline for SinterCast to begin to pay Swedish income tax will shift from the previously forecast "late-2027 or early-2028" to the first half of 2028.

Cashflow, Liquidity and Investments

The January−June 2025 cashflow from operations decreased by SEK 10.4 million, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to a SEK 10.7 million increase in working capital and increased cashflow before changes in working capital of SEK 0.3 million. The cashflow from change in working capital amounted to SEK -1.8 million (SEK 8.9), primarily due to a SEK 2.2 million (SEK -10.4 million) increase in accounts receivable and a SEK 3.4 million (SEK 0.8 million) decrease in operating liabilities. Total investments amounted to SEK 0.5 million (SEK 1.2 million). Following the dividend payment of SEK 24.7 million, the share buyback of SEK 1.7 million and the IFRS 16 lease payment of SEK 0.8 million, total cashflow amounted to SEK -6.3 million (SEK 7.0 million). Liquidity on 30 June 2025 was SEK 16.7 million (SEK 19.2 million), plus an overdraft credit facility in the amount of SEK 12.5 million, providing effective liquidity of SEK 29.2 million. SinterCast currently has no loans.

Cashflow Summary January−June
(Amounts in SEK million if not otherwise stated) 2025 2024 2025 vs 2024
Cashflow from operations, before change in working capital 23.1 22.9 0.3
Change in working capital -1.8 8.9 -10.7

Risks and Uncertainty Factors

Uncertainty factors for SinterCast include: the timing of OEM decisions for new CGI engines and other components; adherence to start-of-production dates and ramp projections; the longevity of each engine programme; the possibility that the volume of existing programmes may decrease or come to end-of-life earlier than expected; the global economy for new vehicle sales; technology trends and emissions legislation; and, the individual sales success of vehicles equipped with SinterCast-CGI components.

The increasing economic and geopolitical instability, exacerbated by recent trade and tariff confrontations and ongoing armed conflict in multiple regions, constitute the dominant near-term risk factors for the global foundry and automotive industries. While it is not yet possible to quantify the impact of these factors on the near-term market development, SinterCast remains confident in the long-term growth of CGI. Other factors that may influence the market risk for SinterCast and its end-user industries include the renegotiation of international tariffs and free-trade agreements on vehicle sales, climate change legislation and the associated growth of alternative powertrain technologies, and the overall demand for goods transportation. The development of AI may also increase the possibilities to develop potentially competitive technologies or to reverse engineer the SinterCast technology.

No significant risk of material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities has been identified at the balance sheet date. For additional risk and uncertainty factor information, see the SinterCast Annual Report.

Organisation

With successful high volume CGI production in customer foundries located in Europe, Asia and the Americas, SinterCast has established a global organisation with employees and offices in Sweden, the United Kingdom, the United States, China, Germany and Portugal. As of 30 June 2025, the Group had 26 (27) employees, 7 (6) of whom are female. Benefitting from accumulated experience and efficiency improvements, SinterCast is well positioned to support global market activities and to drive the future growth of the company.

Parent Company

SinterCast AB (publ) is the Parent Company of the SinterCast Group, with its registered office located in Stockholm, Sweden. On 30 June 2025, the Parent Company had 21 (22) employees. The average number of employees during the period was 21 (23). The majority of the operations are managed by the Parent Company while local operations in the United Kingdom, United States and China are managed by the local companies. The information given for the Group in this report corresponds in all material respects to the Parent Company. However, the result for the period may differ between the group and the Parent Company due to intercompany transactions between the Parent Company and its subsidiaries.

Outlook Guidance

The ongoing changes regarding international tariffs have created considerable uncertainty in the automotive sector, potentially impacting sales volumes for current programmes, the timing for the start of production of new programmes, and investment planning for new foundry installations. This uncertainty may impact our previously established targets for reaching the five million Engine Equivalent milestone before the end of 2026 and for posting more than SEK 11.4 million in 2025 installation revenue. The related uncertainties on the USD / SEK exchange rate may extend beyond the protections provided by our current hedge programme, impacting future profitability. It is currently expected that SinterCast will begin to pay Swedish income tax during the first half of 2028. International tariffs, particularly unbalanced tariffs, may affect the competitive position of SinterCast foundry customers in some countries.

The delay of EPA 2027 and Euro 7 legislation will negate the previously expected pre-buy effect in 2026, impacting near-term volumes by approximately 100,000 Engine Equivalents. The heavy-duty commercial vehicle sector is increasingly focussing on internal combustion engines running on clean fuels, rather than electrification. SinterCast expects that the penetration of CGI in heavy duty commercial vehicles will grow from the current level of 40~50% to more than 80% before the end of the decade, with strong production demand beyond 2040.
