Stable operations in a challenging market climate

During the third quarter, both of the Group's business units continued to face challenges due to weak markets, lower investment appetite, and longer business processes. This resulted in a declining order intake, particularly within RemaSawco. The Group nevertheless reported stable performance with a stronger order backlog and improved gross margin. Cash flow from operating activities increased.

The RemaSawco business unit delivered good profitability despite a decline in net sales. At the same time, the Motion Analysis business unit showed a continued growth in its order backlog for subscription and support services.

The Group's operations are efficient and solution -oriented, despite the market situation hindering growth in the short term. Well aware of these challenges, we continue to invest in AI -driven product development as well as local sales and service capabilit ies to strengthen our long -term competitiveness and generate a higher proportion of recurring revenue.

Stability in challenging market conditions

The third quarter was characterized for both business units by continued cautious customer willingness to invest, which led to longer sales cycles and decreased order intake, MSEK 34.2 (47.1) compared with the previous year, but an increase from the previo us quarter (26.8).

In this market climate, the Group showed stable development. Net sales amounted to MSEK 41.4 (56.6), the gross margin to 71 percent (67), while EBITDA amounted to MSEK 7.1 (17.3). Earnings continued to be impacted by the ongoing transi tion to a subscription -based business model within Motion Analysis and by lower net sales for RemaSawco.

Thanks to several deliveries during the quarter, cash flow from operating activities improved to MSEK 10.8 (3.2). The order backlog increased to MSEK 77.4 (73.0).

RemaSawco – good results in a weak market

RemaSawco reported a quarter with maintained good profitability. Due to a decline in order intake, net sales amounted to MSEK 32.4 (44.3). The EBITDA margin was 22.2 percent, lower than last year but improved compared to the second quarter.

The wood products market remains in a slump with limited construction activity. However, our assessment remains that sawmills will prioritize investments in streamlining and optimizing their production processes.

The business unit continues to focus on upgrade projects, service agreements, and customer oriented solutions that contribute to short -term sales and long -term customer relationships. We are intensifying efforts to enhance our service offering in order to strengthen our recurring rev enue base.

Motion Analysis – growing order backlog

The launch of the new software platform, along with a strengthened local presence in key markets, has been well received and lays the foundation for long -term growth. The defense and automotive industries, our key customer segments, continue to demonstrate increasing demand for advanced analysis solutions. The business unit also sees good opportunities in other application areas where our offering is well suited.

The subscription -based business model continues to contribute to a growing share of recurring revenue. Net sales amounted to MSEK 9.0 (12.3), but increased compared with the previous quarter (7.1). Order intake amounted to MSEK 15.9 (19.2), which is a sequential improve ment. The order backlog for subscription and support services increased to MSEK 38.7 (18.6).

The new business model is developing according to plan, and we are beginning to see the effects of a higher proportion of direct sales.

Deliberate moves and with an eye to the future

Our strategic direction remains unchanged: to build sustainable profitable growth with a higher proportion of recurring revenue. In the current state of the market, characterized by low invest ment appetite, we are making conscious efforts to strengthen our presence and service organiza tion in priority markets and ensure customer sat isfaction. The Group's underlying operations are stable and efficient, and we are well positioned. As soon as the market fuels our well -oiled ma chinery, we will be ready to t ake advantage of improved cyclical conditions.

We continue to selectively invest in product de velopment, focusing particularly on AI and auto mation to accelerate the development process and enhance customer value.

Finally, I would like to thank the personnel for their solid efforts during the quarter. In addition, I would like to welcome Andreas Ovemyr as the new CEO of the Motion Analysis business unit. I am convinced that he will bring new perspec tives and take the business to the next level.

THE GROUP'S DEVELOPMENT IN THE THIRD QUARTER

Order intake, net sales and profit

Order intake amounted to MSEK 34.2 (47.1). Order backlog as of September 30, 2025, amounted to MSEK 77.4 (73.0).

Net sales amounted to MSEK 41.4 (56.6). Capitalized development expenditure amounted to MSEK 2.5 (3.6) and relates to both business units.

Gross margin amounted to 71 (67) percent.

EBITDA amounted to MSEK 7.1 (17.3).

Other external charges are in line with the same period last year. Personnel costs increased compared to last year's period, which is attributed to an exchange of skills and an increase in the number of employees.

Depreciation/amortization amounted to MSEK -6.2 ( -4.5). During the year, we have begun depreciation/amortization of several development projects in connection with commercial launch.

Net financial items amounted to MSEK -0.3 ( -0.1).

Result after taxes amounted to MSEK 0.7 (12.8).

Financial position, investments and cash flow

The Group's investments in non -current assets during the quarter amounted to MSEK 3.5 (6.1) of which MSEK 2.5 (3.6) was related to capitalized development projects. Capitalization of development projects takes place in both business units.

The operational cash flow during the quarter amounted to MSEK 7.3 ( -2.9). Solidity as of September 30, 2025, amounted to 58 (60) percent. Net indebtedness amounted to 0.0 (0.1) times.

Available cash and cash equivalents including the undrawn part of the overdraft facilities amounted to MSEK 27.9 (21.8) as of September 30, 2025.

THE GROUP'S DEVELOPMENT DURING THE INTERIM PERIOD

Order intake amounted to MSEK 91.9 (140.5). Order backlog as of September 30, 2025, amounted to MSEK 77.4 (73.0).

Net sales amounted to MSEK 129.9 (139.1). Capitalized development expenditure amounted to MSEK 8.1 (10.9) and relates to both business units.

Gross margin amounted to 68 (68) percent.

EBITDA amounted to MSEK 12.6 (25.8).

Other external charges decreased, which mainly is attributable to an increase in capitalized external consultancy costs related to the RemaSawco business unit's product development. Personnel costs increased as a result of the expansion of our own operatio ns in North America and Japan.

Depreciation/amortization amounted to MSEK -17.8 (-13.4). Capitalized development costs are lower than last year as we have begun depreciation/amortization of several development projects in connection with commercial launches. Net financial items amounted to MSEK -0.5 ( -0.4).

Result after taxes amounted to MSEK -5.3 (12.4).

ROLLING 12 -MONTH ORDER INTAKE, REVENUE AND EBITDA

The Group's rolling 12 -month EBITDA margin during the third quarter amounted to 7.2 percent. The Group's long -term EBITDA target of delivering a stable 15 percent EBITDA margin requires growth in net sales. The pace of the ongoing change in the Motion Anal ysis business unit, to a higher proportion of subscription and support agreements, may also affect how quickly the long -term goal is achieved. The changed business model will eventually translate into growth in both net sales and EBITDA results.

BUSINESS UNIT: REMASAWCO

RemaSawco provides solutions to optimize production in the sawmill industry. The product portfolio includes proprietary software that, with the help of laser, 3D scanning, X -ra y, and automation, measures and analyzes timber and boards throughout the sawmill process to maximize value exchange, minimize waste, and thus increase customer profitability.

Performance during the period

Order intake amounted to MSEK 18.3 (27.9), reflecting the weak market situation in the wood products industry. High commodity prices continue to negatively affect the market, although there are some signs of a slight decline in prices. However, this change will not have an immediate impact on sawmills. At the same time, sawmills are facing pressure from lower prices for sawn timber, and construction has not yet picked up, which together contributes to reduced demand.

The business unit's earnings are beginning to be affected by lower order intake. Net sales amounted to MSEK 32.4 (44.3) and EBITDA to MSEK 7.4 (13.7), a reduced but still high margin of 22.2 percent (29.7). At the same time , customer satisfaction, delivery precision, and quality have been significantly strengthened, giving us a stronger position when market conditions improve. We continue to invest in our product portfolio, drive development forward, and strengthen our servi ce offering with SLAs, upgrade pa ckages and smaller projects.

Product development

During the quarter, we have worked on updating existing products and advancing the development our X -ray scanner. The incremental product development of the new measuring station has been successful, and the working method is being rolled out in more produ ct areas.

Our continued investments in product development aim to increase the scalability of our solutions and further develop key functions for digitizing and optimizing sawmill processes. During the quarter, our efforts in generative AI took shape, and we began i ntroducing AI models into both our working methods and our products. This endeavor is expected to be the most important driving force for accelerating the pace of development and strengthening our position when the market situation improves.

BUSINESS UNIT: MOTION ANALYSIS

Motion Analysis offers its customers software for the analysis of high -speed film, a niche where the Com pany is the world leader. The software is sold under the product names TEMA and TrackEye Ⓡ.

Performance during the period

The cautiousness we observed in the market at the start of the year has persisted, and transactions continue to take longer to complete. However, towards the end of the quarter, we have observed some improvement, as several orders have been received.

Order intake during the quarter amounted to MSEK 15.9 (19.2), which is lower than the previous year, but the order backlog for subscription and support services continued to build up and amounted to MSEK 38.7 (18.6) at the end of the quarter. The growing s hare of recurring revenue increases our stability going forward. Net sales amounted to MSEK 9.0 (12.3) and EBITDA to MSEK 0.6 (4.7), with EBITDA affected by lower sales volumes, the transition to a subscription -based business model, and continued investmen ts in product development.

The new software platform is an important part of our growth strategy. The solution was launched commercially during the year, and we believe that, together with an increasing proportion of multi year subscription agreements, this will be an important driv er of future growth.

Product development

Meanwhile, several development initiatives are underway that we believe will strengthen ou r competitiveness and growth in the future.

REVIEW REPORT

To the board of Image Systems AB (publ) corp. reg. no. 556319 -4041

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim report for Image Systems AB (publ) as at September 30, 2025, and for the nine months period then ended. The Board of Directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this 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 Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons re sponsible 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 and other generally accepted auditin g 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 in accordance with th e Swedish Annual Accounts Act regarding the Parent Company.

RELEVANT RECONCILIATIONS OF NON -IFRS INDICATORS, THE GROUP

Alternative indicators

In addition to the financial indicators that are prepared in accordance with the IFRS, Image Systems presents financial indicators outside the scope of the IFRS, such as EBITDA and Net debt.

These alternative indicators are considered to be important results and performance indicators for investors and other readers of the interim report. The alternative indicators should be regarded as complementary information and not as a substitute for the financial information presented in accordance with IFRS.

Image Systems' definitions of these measures that are not defined by the IFRS are provided in the "Definitions" section of this report.

Other companies may use other definitions, and the measures may therefore not be comparable to similar indicators used by other companies.

EBITDA

Image Systems considers EBITDA to be a relevant measure for investors to be able to comprehend profit generation before investments in tangible and intangible fixed assets.

Net debt

Image Systems considers Net debt to be a relevant measure for investors to be able to comprehend the indebtedness of the Group.
