MESSAGE FROM THE CEO

BYGGMAX CONTINUES TO IMPROVE PROFITABILITY

Byggmax improved profitability compared to the previous year in the third quarter. Focus on our core offering combined with high operational excellence resulted in increased profit despite a continued cautious market. Byggmax continues the long-term work strengthening the core business to drive profitable growth.

Byggmax sales decreased by 0.8 percent compared to the previous year in the third quarter of 2025. Currency fluctuations have had a dampening effect on sales outside Sweden.

During the quarter, products related to smaller garden projects and garden buildings remained solid, while hesitant consumers continued to result in weaker demand for larger renovation projects. A strengthened focus on our core offering has led to further optimisation of our online assortment, driving both customer relevance and profitability, but in the short term to a slightly reduced revenue.

Profitability improved and EBITA amounted to SEK 272 M (249) in the third quarter, an EBITA margin of 14.0 percent (12.7). The improvement in earnings is driven by high operational excellence and cost control in combination with a strong gross margin. Customer demand concentrated in higher margin categories, improvements in e-commerce together with low waste and early payment of purchased goods have all contributed to the strong margin.

As profitability has improved, we have continued to strengthen our balance sheet. Our leverage ratio is 0.4 at the end of the quarter, compared to 1.3 in the corresponding period last year. It clearly reflects the results of our successful work to ensure a strong financial position.

EFFICIENT OPERATIONS AND HIGH CUSTOMER SATISFACTION DURING THE SUMMER SEASON

During the quarter, we maintained strong operational control, contributing to solid cost efficiency and low levels of waste. Our stores continued to uphold high standards in both execution and customer service, resulting in sustained high customer satisfaction.

We have enhanced the customer experience by expanding and improving the self-checkouts across our stores. In Sweden, over 50 percent of customers used self-scanning during the summer, enabling our employees to focus more on support and service in-store. Online, customers are assisted by our new AI-driven Chat'n'Shop, which already contributes to sales, although on a limited scale.

Since summer is our high season, the focus has been on securing logistics and supply chain operations. The trend from previous quarters persisted, with a significant reduction in shortages compared to the previous year. Going forward, we will focus on maintaining this strong performance during the winter season, ensuring good product availability in prioritised categories.

We are continuously refining our product offering. Shopping with us should be simple and convenient, with products that are relevant to our customers. While we continue to develop our core categories, we are also phasing out parts of our online assortment.

FURTHER STRENGTHENING THE CORE BUSINESS TO DRIVE PROFITABLE GROWTH

We have secured a strong balance sheet and established good operational control. We are now focusing on strengthening the core business by becoming even more relevant to customers, increasing sales within the existing infrastructure and continuing to drive high efficiency throughout the business.

Deeper customer insights, further development of our offering and strong commercial execution provide the conditions for growth. We will continue to offer high-quality products at the best prices on the market – in a simple, inspiring and cost-effective way.

With an attractive assortment, high customer satisfaction and short lead times, we are well prepared when the market turns upwards. Thanks to an efficient organisation and strong operational control, we can quickly adapt when volumes increase. Our strength lies in being agile, cost-efficient and close to the customer – ready to grow when demand picks up.

During the summer season, our fantastic employees have done an outstanding job helping customers fulfil their DIY dreams. A big thank you to everyone who, every day, demonstrates what our culture stands for – commitment, responsibility and a positive attitude. With the same energy, we are now taking on the autumn and winter season!

KARL SANDLUND

President and CEO

INTRODUCTION

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Byggmax Group AB (publ.) as of 30 September 2025 and the nine-month period then ended. The board of directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

SCOPE OF REVIEW

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

CONCLUSION

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Group, and with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Parent Company.
