CEO's message

Better market situation and many acquisitions

Order intake during the first quarter was 10% higher than invoicing, which means that Indutrade is now in a growth phase that will gradually become apparent in invoicing. The total increase in order intake during the quarter is attributable to completed acquisitions. The order intake for comparable units improved gradually during the first quarter, resulting in an increase in order intake in March for the first time since September 2008.

In the geographic markets in which Indutrade works, Sweden is the country that is showing the strongest growth. Of the customer segments, in general it is the engineering industry including commercial vehicles that is showing strong growth. These segments were hit first and hardest by the economic downturn and are now showing the strongest growth.

Invoicing during the quarter was lower than in the same period in 2009 as a result of low order intake in earlier quarters. The order book increased during the quarter.

The Group is once again showing its strength through a very stable gross margin, which improved during the quarter. The EBITA margin for the quarter was 9.4%, which is slightly higher than for the same period in 2009.

Acquisitions

During the quarter, Indutrade acquired a total of six businesses with annual sales of nearly SEK 470 million and an EBITA margin exceeding the Group's targets. Together with the acquisitions made in autumn 2009, Indutrade's invoicing will increase by approximately SEK 700 million. The acquisitions made during the quarter strengthen our position in the product segments fasteners (Techno Skruv AB), valves (Corona Control AB), medical equipment (AxMediTec Sp.Z.o.o), filters (Lekang Group) and safety profiles (Stålprofil AB).

Despite the high pace of acquisitions during the first quarter, the ambition is to make additional acquisitions in the coming quarters.

In view of the trend of higher order intake for existing businesses and favourable acquisitions opportunities, I have a positive view of our performance in 2010.

ORDER INTAKE AND NET SALES

Order intake

Order intake during the period January–March amounted to SEK 1,669 million (1,630), an increase of 2%. For comparable units, order intake fell 2%, while acquired growth was 9%. Currency movements reduced order intake by 5%.

The decline in the Group's order intake regarding comparable units after the second quarter of 2009 has gradually planed out and was -2% for the first quarter. During the latter part of the quarter, growth in order intake was noted for the first time since September 2008.

The business area that was affected the earliest in 2008 by the economic downturn was Industrial Components, which is now reporting a clear improvement in order intake from product areas focusing on commercial vehicles. Flow Technology's order intake also performed well as a result of higher demand from customers in the water/waste water and environmental segments. The Special Products business area has benefited from improved demand in the Swedish market, while the pace of order intake was lower for companies focusing on the energy sector. In the Finnish market, where the Engineering & Equipment business area is active, order intake continues to be low.

Net sales

Net sales fell 12% during the quarter to SEK 1,527 million (1,731). For comparable units, net sales fell 14%, while acquired growth was 7%. Currency movements had a negative impact on net sales, by 5%.

The Industrial Components business area had a weak start to the year, but showed growth in net sales for the month of March. Net sales for the other business areas posted performance for comparable units of between -11% and -20% in relation to a previously weak order intake.

EBITA MARGIN

RETURN

EARNINGS AND RETURN

Earnings

The gross margin for the first quarter was 33.7% (32.5%), an improvement of 1.2 percentage points. The improved gross margin is mainly attributable to a shift in net sales towards products with higher margins and improved productivity in manufacturing companies. The exchange rate trend compared with a year ago – with a strong Swedish krona – has had a favourable effect on parts of the Group.

Operating profit before amortisation of intangible assets (EBITA) was SEK 144 million (161), a decrease of 11%. The operating margin before amortisation of intangible assets (the EBITA margin) was 9.4% (9.3%). Measures taken in 2009 to reduce overheads, together with the improved gross margin, have contributed to a stable EBITA margin despite lower net sales.

Net financial items amounted to SEK -8 million (-15). Tax on profit for the year is estimated at SEK -30 million (-34). Profit after tax decreased by 9% to SEK 86 million (95). Earnings per share were SEK 2.15 (2.38).

Return

The return on operating capital for the last 12 months was 20.9% (33.2%) and was affected by a lower level of earnings and by the fact that acquisitions were made primarily of manufacturing companies with a high average level of tied-up capital.

Business areas

Engineering & Equipment

Engineering & Equipment offers customised niche products, design solutions, aftermarket service and special processing. The main product areas are hydraulics and pneumatics, industrial equipment, flow products, transmissions and measuring instruments.

2010 2009 2009/10 2009
SEK million Jan-Mar Jan-Mar Moving 12 mos Jan-Dec
Net sales 305 420 1,454 1,569
EBITA 14 17 80 83
EBITA-margin, % 4.6% 4.0% 5.5% 5.3%

Net sales fell 27% during the quarter, to SEK 305 million (420). For comparable units, net sales fell 20%. Currency movements had a negative effect on net sales, by 7%. Demand in Finland, which is the business area's largest market, was affected by continued weak performance for the Finnish export industry. Compared with the fourth quarter of 2009, a slight levelling in the pace of decline of net sales is noted.

EBITA for the quarter was SEK 14 million (17). Mainly as an effect of the cost adjustments made in 2009, the EBITA margin reached 4.6% (4.0%), despite lower net sales.

Flow Technology

Flow Technology offers components and systems for the management, control and supervision of flows. The main product areas are valves, pumps, measuring and analysis instruments, pipe systems, hydraulics, compressors and service.

2010 2009 2009/10 2009

EBITA 30 40 176 186

Net sales for the period amounted to SEK 383 million (428), a decrease of 11%. For comparable units, net sales fell 11%, while acquired growth was 2%. Currency movements had a negative effect on net sales, by 2%. The decrease in net sales is mainly attributable to lower activity in markets in Denmark and Norway, and a lower share of invoicing for major projects.

EBITA for the quarter was SEK 30 million (40), and the EBITA margin was 7.8% (9.3%). An improved gross margin resulting from an improved product mix has partially absorbed the relatively high level of overheads.

The company Corona Control AB was acquired during the quarter.

Industrial Components

Industrial Components offers a wide range of technically advanced components and systems for production and maintenance. The main product areas are fasteners, mechanical components, pumps, lubrications, rust proofing, cutting tools, adhesives and chemical technology, transmission and automation, filters and process technolog, and medical technical technology.

2010 2009 2009/10 2009

EBITA 28 20 80 72
EBITA-margin, % 8.2% 6.2% 6.8% 6.2%

Net sales, which have fallen during the last four quarters, increased during the period by 5% to SEK 340 million (323). For comparable units, the decrease was 4%, while acquired growth was 11%. Currency movements had a negative effect, by 2%. In March the business area posted growth for comparable units for the first time since the third quarter of 2008. This growth was mainly an effect of higher demand for products for commercial vehicles. Higher activity was also noted in the steel and mining industries.

EBITA for the quarter was SEK 28 million (20), corresponding to an EBITA margin of 8.2% (6.2%). The EBITA margin was favourably affected by a higher volume of deliveries with limited cost increases owing to costcutting programmes carried out in 2009.

During the quarter, the companies Techno Skruv i Värnamo AB (Sweden) and AxMediTec SP. Z o.o (Poland) were acquired.

Special Products

Special Products offers specially manufactured niche products, design solutions, aftermarket service and assembly, and special processing. The main product areas are valves, electrical components, glass, technical ceramics, measuring technology, special plastics, filters and process technology, industrial springs, piston rings and hydraulic couplings.

2010 2009 2009/10 2009

EBITA 82 94 276 288
EBITA-margin, % 16.2% 16.5% 15.2% 15.3%

Net sales for the period fell 11% to SEK 505 million (568). For comparable units, the decrease was 18%, while acquired growth was 13%. Currency movements reduced net sales by 6%. During the quarter, most of the business area's Swedish companies were favourably affected by improved demand, while companies with products for the international energy sector have noted a gradual weakening in demand.

EBITA was SEK 82 million (94), and the EBITA margin was 16.2% (16.5%). An improved gross margin resulting from an improved product mix and productivity improvements in certain manufacturing units have not fully compensated for a relatively higher level of overheads.

During the quarter, Lekang Group (with companies in Norway, Sweden and Denmark), Stålprofil PK AB and a construction plastics business were acquired.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Indutrade Group conducts business in 18 countries on four continents, through some 120 companies. This spread, together with a large number of customers in various industries and a large number of suppliers, mitigates the business and financial risks. In addition to the risks and uncertainties described in Indutrade's 2009 Annual Report, no significant risks or uncertainties are judged to have emerged or been eliminated. Since the Parent Company is responsible for the Group's financing, it is subject to financing risk.

The Parent Company's other activities are not subject to risks other than indirectly via subsidiaries. For a more detailed report on risks that affect the Group and Parent Company, please see the 2009 Annual Report.

RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

No transactions took place during the year between Indutrade and related parties, which have significantly affected the Company's financial position or result of operations.

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

Indutrade reports in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and RFR 1.3. The Parent Company applies RFR 2.3. The same accounting policies and calculation methods are used in this report as those used in Indutrade's 2009 Annual Report and described under the section "Accounting principles and notes".

Effective 1 January 2010 the Indutrade Group applies two revised standards: IAS 27R: Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, and IFRS 3R: Business Combinations. The new rules apply for acquisitions completed after 1 January 2010. For Indutrade, these revisions entail that transaction costs may no longer be capitalised, but must be reported through profit or loss under Other income and expenses in the income statement. Any revaluations of conditional earn-out payments will be reported in the income statement for acquisitions carried out after 1 January 2010.

The amendments to IFRS 3 are in conflict with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, which is why transaction costs will continue to be capitalised and be included in the cost of shares and participations in the Parent Company. Apart from these two revised standards, there are no other IFRSs or IFRIC interpretations that will be applicable for Indutrade or have any material impact on the Group's result of operations or financial position.

FINANCIAL CALENDAR

The Annual General Meeting will be held in Stockholm on 29 April 2010. The interim report for the period 1 January - 30 June 2010 will be published on 4 August 2010. The interim report for the period 1 January - 30 September 2010 will be published on 2 November 2010.

Indutrade normally uses an acquisition structure with a base level of consideration plus a conditional earn-out payment. Initially, the earn-out payment is valued at the present value of the most probable payment, which for the acquisitions made during the year to date is SEK 62 million. The earn-out payments fall due for payment within two years, and the maximum outcome can be SEK 66 million. If the conditions are not met, the outcome can be zero.

Transaction costs for the acquisitions carried out during the first quarter amounted to SEK 1 million and are included in Other income and expenses in the income statement. No revaluation of conditional earn-out payments has been made to date.
