Good resilience in challenging markets

The year has begun in line with the information communicated by Inwido in connection with our year-end accounts in February. The sharp declines in volume in the new build markets in Finland and Sweden that we witnessed during the second half of last year have affected both sales and order intake at the start of 2024. Net sales during the first quarter were down by 14 percent (negative 21 percent organically) compared to the corresponding period last year, to SEK 1,811 million (2,095). Under these conditions, Inwido's ability to deliver an operating EBITA of SEK 91 million (168) and an operating EBITA margin of 5.0 percent (8.0) in the seasonally weak first quarter demonstrates good resilience in the business model.

The lower volumes have been partially compensated by reduced production costs and the implementation of savings in relation to fixed costs in the business units. While it is necessary to reduce costs when volumes go down, it is important to retain the skills and strength in our operations in order to be able to be prepared, now that the window season is just around the corner. This is a balancing act that Inwido has proven to master time and time again. Total order intake increased by 1 percent compared with the corresponding quarter last year (down 9 percent adjusted for acquisitions). It is worth noting that we are seeing an increasing level of activity on the consumer and renovation side. This is particularly evident in Denmark, where inflation and interest rates have been falling for some time, and house prices are rising.

In the key performance indicators for the sustainability work, unit-related figures in the area of the environment are being challenged by the substantial decline in volume. On the other hand, the key performance indicators for sick leave , health and safety are reporting a steady improvement. Another positive aspect is the fact that the amount of waste is decreasing. Our climate targets have now been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative. This represents an important milestone for our sustainability work and shows our high ambitions as regards increasing the pace of the transition.

Business Area Scandinavia was affected by the decline in volume in the new build market during the quarter. Sales fell by 24 percent, although the gradual improvement in the gross margin continued. The operating EBITA margin fell to 7.4 percent (10.8), compared with the corresponding quarter last year.

Within Business Area Eastern Europe, which has reported historically high profitability levels in recent quarters, the dramatic reduction in volumes witnessed over the past six months has now taken full effect. With a drop in sales of 43 percent during the quarter, the operating EBITA margin fell to negative 4.8 percent (positive 6.8). The rate of new construction in Finland has now fallen to levels not seen since the 1940s, which is the principal explanation for the decline in volumes.

Business Area e-Commerce, which is the most consumer-oriented business within Inwido, reported a positive trend during the first quarter. Sales increased by 8 percent compared to the corresponding period in 2023. The increase in volume also contributed to an increased gross margin, which in turn resulted in the operating EBITA margin increasing to 4.2 percent (1.5).

Business Area Western Europe performed well during the first quarter, primarily driven by last year's acquisition of Sidey Group. The business area's sales increased by 90 percent, operating EBITA increased by 122 percent and the EBITA margin increased to 10.2 percent (8.7). However, other operations within the business area, with the exception of the business unit in Ireland, continue to be affected by the pressured consumer market in the UK.

Outlook

It is with confidence, humility and a high level of commitment that I am now taking up the position of President and CEO of Inwido. We have an exciting journey ahead of us, as we build to reach our long-term target of sales totaling SEK 20 billion by 2030, with profitability in line with the target of more than 15 percent return on operating capital. Achieving this requires not only a wellthought-out M&A strategy, but also an innovative product portfolio and dedicated customer focus. It tfeels inspiring, now as I join the Group, that Elitfönster is launching products adapted to the energy requirements of the future, at the same time as the company is celebrating its 100th anniversary; Diplomatdörrar is offering a digitalized lock (Diplosmart) alongside Assa Abloy; and the "Rolls Royce of sliding doors", Hajom, is launching products with a new, market-leading level of performance. These are just a few examples that bode well for the future.

Even though we are currently experiencing a sharp drop in volumes in the new build market in the Nordic region, the outlook in the slightly longer term is positive, with growth being driven by the green transition. The EU's clear ambition to enhance energy performance in properties over the upcoming years means that there are favorable growth opportunities for energy-efficient windows and doors. With the arrival of spring, we are hopeful that the positive signs we have observed in the Danish consumer market can also spread to more European markets.

In my opinion, we are well positioned for favorable long-term trends, such as energy efficiency and sustainability. It is worth noting that, through our offering of greatly appreciated windows and doors, we represent an important part of the solution for a good indoor climate and the energy-efficient homes of the future.

Net sales and order intake

During the first quarter of the year, net sales were down 14 percent (negative 21 percent organically) to SEK 1,811 million (2,095) as a result of continued low activity, both in the industry market and the consumer market.

Analysis of net sales Jan-Mar Jan-Mar

In the first quarter, total order intake rose by 1 percent compared with the corresponding quarter last year (down 9 percent adjusted for acquisitions). Order intake was down 12 percent in Business Area Scandinavia, down 26 percent in Eastern Europe, up 113 percent in Western Europe and up 12 percent in e-Commerce. The order backlog at the end of the period increased to SEK 2,236 million (1,581) as a result of the acquisition of Sidey Group (down 13 percent adjusted for acquisitions).

RTM = Rolling Twelve Months

EBITA

In the first quarter, operating EBITA amounted to SEK 91 million (168) and the operating EBITA margin amounted to 5.0 percent (8.0). The lower margin can be explained by lower volumes in combination with a consciously maintained manufacturing capacity, in preparation for the upcoming peak season.

Financial items

Net financial items during the first quarter amounted to negative SEK 29 million (negative 22) as a result of higher interest rates.

Profit before and after tax

Profit before tax amounted to SEK 44 million (139) in the first quarter. Income taxes amounted to negative SEK 15 million (negative 27) and profit after tax amounted to SEK 28 million (112).

Earnings per share

In the first quarter, earnings per share before and after dilution amounted to SEK 0.37 (1.90).

Items affecting comparability

Items affecting comparability that are non-recurring and have a significant impact on profit are important in understanding the underlying development of operations. Expenses relate primarily to acquisition-related expenses and restructuring measures during a consolidation phase, in which the company enhances efficiency through, for example, closures or reorganization of production facilities and sales units. These expenses primarily consist of impairment of assets, personnel costs and other external expenses.

Items affecting comparability amounted to negative SEK 7 million (negative 1) during the first quarter and involve restructuring and acquisition costs.

Gross investments, depreciation, amortization and impairment

Gross investments in tangible non-current assets in the first quarter amounted to SEK 78 million (36). Depreciation and impairment amounted to SEK 89 million (77).

Cash flow

Cash flow from operating activities after changes in working capital during the first quarter amounted to negative SEK 309 million (negative 105) as a result of a lower operating profit.

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to negative SEK 88 million (negative 43) during the first quarter as a result of increased investments and acquisitions of outstanding minority shares in subsidiaries.

Cash flow from financing activities amounted to negative SEK 76 million (negative 21) during the first quarter as a result of amortization of IFRS 16 liabilities and amortization of booked acquisition liability attributable to the acquisition of outstanding minority stakes in subsidiaries (see below under Acquisitions).

Return on operating capital

The return on operating capital decreased to 13.7 percent (17.6), primarily as a result of a lower EBITA.

Financial position and liquidity

Inwido's principal financing consists of bank loans based on bilateral, sustainability-related credit agreements expiring in the period 2025-2028. The aforementioned credit agreements include financial covenants that are followed up on a quarterly basis. Inwido meets the terms of existing credit agreements.

The Group's net debt at the end of the period amounted to SEK 1,731 million (955) and to SEK 1,209 million (485) excluding IFRS 16.

At the end of the period, indebtedness, calculated as interest-bearing net debt/operating EBITDA, was 1.4 (0.7) and 1.1 (0.4) excluding IFRS 16. At the end of the period, consolidated cash and equivalents were SEK 459 million (1,151). Available funds, including unutilized credit facilities, amounted to SEK 2,232 million (2,700).

Acquisitions

As of March 21, 2024, Inwido acquired the remaining 25 percent of the shares in MV Center Oy, which means that Inwido now owns 100 percent of the company. The acquisition was financed through existing credit facilities.

As of March 28, 2024, Inwido acquired the remaining 33 percent of the shares in Hyvinkään Puuseppien Oy, which means that Inwido now owns 100 percent of the company. The acquisition was financed through existing credit facilities.

In March, Inwido's largest business unit in Finland, Pihla Group Oy, acquired a majority stake in the ventilation company Finluft Oy. Finluft manufactures window-integrated, energy-efficient ventilation solutions that improve the quality of the indoor air.

Events after the balance sheet date

On April 10, Fredrik Meuller took over as President and CEO of Inwido. On April 11, Inwido's climate goals were approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

Seasonal variations

Inwido's operations are affected by seasonal fluctuations. The weakest period is the first quarter, which normally accounts for about 20 percent of annual sales. The second and third quarters are normally of equal strength and combined account for slightly more than 50 percent of annual sales, while the fourth quarter of the year is normally the strongest with slightly less than 30 percent of annual sales. The largest seasonal variations are within the Consumer market, although sales to the Industry market are also dependent on the season and weather.

Employees

The number of employees averaged 4,233 (4,508) in the period January–March 2024.

Parent Company

The Parent Company, Inwido AB (publ), is purely a holding company with no operations of its own. The Parent Company's profit mainly reflects the net of revenues for joint Group services and deductions for wages, other remunerations and interest expenses.

Shares and share capital

As per March 31, 2024, share capital amounted to SEK 231,870,112 and the number of shares totaled 57,967,528. The company has one (1) class of shares. Each share entitles the holder to one vote at general meetings. At the end of the period, the closing price was SEK 145.90 and the company's market capitalization was SEK 8,457 million, which corresponds to an increase of 32 percent compared with the corresponding time last year. The total number of shareholders amounts to 16,307.

Incentive program

The Annual General Meetings in the years 2021-2023 resolved to establish long-term incentive programs, comprising warrants issues to Group management. If fully exercised, the maximum dilution effect of the programs is approximately 0.4 percent of the shares and votes in the Company. It should be possible for the subscription of shares supported by warrants to occur during predefined subscription periods from August 1, 2024 to August 31, 2028. For more detailed information, refer to the 2021– 2023 Annual Reports.

Pledged assets and contingent liabilities

No significant changes in pledged assets or contingent liabilities occurred during the period.

Outlook

Inwido's long-term target is still to achieve sales totaling SEK 20 billion by 2030, with profitability that is in line with the target of more than 15 percent for return on operating capital. Even though we are currently experiencing a sharp drop in volumes in the new build market in the Nordic region, the outlook in the longer term is positive, with growth being driven by the green transition. The EU's clear ambition to enhance energy performance in properties over the upcoming years means that there are favorable growth opportunities for energy-efficient windows and doors.

Inwido is well positioned for favorable long-term trends, such as energy efficiency and sustainability. It is worth noting that, through our offering of greatly appreciated windows and doors, we represent an important part of the solution for a good indoor climate and the energy-efficient homes of the future.

This interim report has not been subject to review by the Company's auditors.

Inwido's operations and segments

Inwido improves people's well-being indoors with windows and doors. As Europe's leading window group, Inwido's business concept is to develop and sell the market's best customized window and door solutions through a decentralized structure and with focus on the consumer-driven market, in order to create long-term sustainable growth, organically and through acquisitions.

Inwido comprises 34 business units with approximately 4,200 employees in twelve countries. In 2023, the Group achieved sales of SEK 9 billion with an operating EBITA margin of 11.4 percent.

In 2023, sales to the Consumer market accounted for 73 percent of total net sales, while sales to the Industry market accounted for the remaining 27 percent.

Scandinavia – lower volumes in a market that remains challenging

During the first quarter of the year, net sales were down 24 percent to SEK 816 million (1,073), corresponding to an organic decrease of 25 percent.

Order intake decreased by 12 percent. At the end of the period, the order backlog was 14 percent lower than at the end of the corresponding period last year.

The continued historically low level of activity in the new build market principally affected the largest business unit in Sweden. At the same time, increased demand was noted among consumers in Denmark, where the anticipated recovery is deemed to be slightly ahead of the other Scandinavian countries.

External net sales split between market segments, LTM 100% = SEK 4,206 million

25%

The gross margin was defended during the first quarter, but the lower volumes resulted in a lower operating EBITA of SEK 60 million (116) while the operating EBITA margin amounted to

7.4 percent (10.8). Lower volumes could be partially compensated by efficiency improvements and cost savings, while a certain amount of additional capacity has been retained in order to meet the upcoming peak season.

Eastern Europe – historically low activity in Finnish new build market

The sharp slowdown in order intake that was noted during the second half of 2023 resulted in net sales falling by 43 percent in the first quarter, to SEK 321 million (565), corresponding to an organic decrease of 44 percent.

Order intake decreased by 26 percent over the quarter. At the end of the period, the order backlog was 28 percent lower than at the end of the corresponding period last year. The rate of new build in Finland is currently at levels not seen since the 1940s.

In the first quarter, operating EBITA amounted to negative SEK 15 million (38), while the operating EBITA margin ended up at negative 4.8 percent (positive 6.8). Despite the fact that the business units have implemented major efficiency improvements and cost savings, it was not possible to compensate for the large drop in volume during the quarter. These measures are continuing, at the same time as preparations are being made to cope with the seasonal increase in demand during the spring, particularly on the consumer side.

e-Commerce – growth in consumer-oriented e-commerce

Net sales for the first quarter totaled SEK 255 million, which was 8 percent higher compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year. Organically, net sales were 8 percent higher.

Order intake was 12 percent higher during the quarter compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, while the order backlog at the end of the period was unchanged compared with the corresponding time last year.

Operating EBITA rose to SEK 11 million (4) in the first quarter and the operating EBITA margin rose to 4.2 percent (1.5).

It is judged that Inwido's e-commerce operations have gained market share on several markets at the start of 2024.

Western Europe – Sidey Group delivers despite challenging markets

Net sales for the first quarter rose to SEK 424 million (223), which was 90 percent higher compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year. Organic net sales were 1 percent lower.

Total order intake increased by 113 percent over the quarter. At the end of the period, the business area's order backlog increased to SEK 1,124 million from SEK 213 million at the corresponding point in time last year, as a result of the Sidey Group acquisition.

Operating EBITA rose to SEK 43 million (19) in the first quarter and the operating EBITA margin rose to 10.2 percent (8.7). Sidey Group is less cyclical than other companies in the business area, and continued to perform well. Other operations in the UK continued to be negatively impacted by the weak demand in the consumer market.

Inwido's sustainability work

Getting our targets approved by the Science Based Targets initiative represents an important milestone for our sustainability work and shows our high ambitions as regards increasing the pace of the transition.

Important events during the quarter:

  • The unit-related key performance indicators for the sustainability work are being negatively affected by lower production volumes, while the absolute figures are demonstrating a positive trend or remain unchanged.
  • Through solid and proactive health and safety work in all business units, the key performance indicators for accidents are continuing to develop in a positive direction, both for the quarter and for the rolling 12-month period. The same positive trend is also seen in relation to sick leave.
  • Positive experiences from the safety center at Elitfönster in Sweden have inspired other business units, and a first safety center is now opening in Finland, as well as one in the UK. Here, employees are trained in how to use the right personal protection equipment for different tasks, as well as in risk management and risk prevention, which is strengthening our health and safety culture.
  • During the quarter, sustainability training was initiated for all employees in the Group.

Notes

Note 1 – Accounting principles

This summary consolidated interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and applicable provisions in the Annual Accounts Act. The interim report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act, Chapter 9, Interim Financial Reporting. The Group applies International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU. The Group and the Parent Company have applied the same accounting principles and calculation methods as in the 2023 Annual Report.

In addition to the financial statements, disclosures in accordance with IAS 34.16A are also presented in other parts of the interim report.

The financial reports are presented in SEK, rounded off to the nearest hundred thousand, unless otherwise stated. This process of rounding off can result in the total of the sub-items in one or more rows or columns not corresponding to the sum total for the row or column.

Note 2 – Risks and uncertainties

Inwido's operations are subject to various risks. Risks can be divided into operational, financial and external risks. Operational risks involve, among other things, risks related to losses on account receivable, warranty and product liability, key personnel, interruptions in production, IT systems, intellectual property rights, product development, restructuring, acquisitions and integration, insurance and corporate governance. The financial risks primarily involve changes in exchange rates and interest rates, liquidity risk, capacity to raise capital, financial credit risks and risks associated with goodwill. External risks involve, among other things, risks related to market trends, competition, commodity prices, political decisions, legal disputes, tax and environmental risks.

Risk management in Inwido is based on a structured process for the continuous identification and assessment of risks, their probabilities and potential impacts on the Group. The focus is on identifying controllable risks and managing them to thereby mitigate the overall level of risk in the operations. The Group's risks are described in the 2023 Annual Report. Beyond these, no significant additional risks or uncertainties have arisen.

Note 3 – Financial instruments

Financial instruments are valued at fair value in the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income. The balance sheet item 'Financial investments' contains the Group's holdings of unlisted securities. The cost for these has been deemed to be a reasonable approximation of their value.

IFRS, in order to better understand the development of the business and the financial status of the Inwido Group. However, such performance measures should not be considered a substitute for the key performance indicators required under IFRS. The alternative key performance indicators

presented in this report are described below.

Income measures Calculation Purpose
Organic growth Net sales including acquired growth for the cur
rent period divided by net sales including pro
forma acquired growth during the corresponding
period last year. The change is adjusted for ex
change rate fluctuations by applying the current
period's exchange rates to pro forma net sales
during the corresponding period last year.
Organic growth excludes the effects of changes in
the Group's structure and exchange rates, ena
bling a comparison of net sales over time.
Operating gross profit Gross profit before items affecting comparability. Key ratio used to measure how much of net sales
is left to cover other expenses. The key ratio is
also adjusted for the impact of items affecting
comparability to increase comparability over time.
Operating EBITDA EBITDA before items affecting comparability. This key ratio is used to measure cash flow from
operating activities, regardless of the effects of fi
nancing and depreciation rates on non-current as
sets. The key ratio is also adjusted for the impact
of items affecting comparability to increase com
parability over time. The key ratio is a central com
ponent in the bank covenant Net debt/operating
EBITDA.
EBITA Operating profit after depreciation, amortization
and impairment but before deduction for impair
ment of goodwill as well as amortization and im
pairment of other intangible assets that arose in
conjunction with company acquisitions (Earnings
Before Interest, Tax and Amortization).
This key ratio enables comparisons of profitability
over time regardless of amortization and impair
ment of acquisition-related intangible assets, and
regardless of the corporate tax rate and the com
pany's financing structure. Depreciation of tangi
ble assets is, however, included, this being a meas
ure of resource consumption necessary to gener
ate profit.
Operating EBITA EBITA before items affecting comparability. This key ratio increases the comparability of EBITA
over time, since it is adjusted for the impact of
items affecting comparability. The key ratio is also
used in internal review and constitutes a central fi
nancial target for the operations.
Items affecting comparability Income statement items that are non-recurring,
have a significant impact on profit and are im
portant for understanding the underlying devel
opment of operations.
A separate account of items affecting comparabil
ity elucidates development in the underlying oper
ations.
Margin measures Calculation Purpose
Operating gross margin Operating gross profit as a percentage of net
sales.
This key ratio is a complement to operating margin
since it shows the underlying surplus from net
sales left to cover other expenses in relation to net
sales.

Operating EBITDA margin Operating EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. This key ratio serves as a complement to operat
ing margin since it shows the underlying surplus
cash flow in relation to net sales. The key ratio
also enables comparison with other companies,
regardless of each company's depreciation/amor
tization
principles and the age structure of non-current
assets.
EBITA margin EBITA as a percentage of net sales. This key ratio reflects the operating profitability of
the operations before amortization and impair
ment of acquisition-related intangible assets. The
key ratio is an important component, alongside
sales growth and capital turnover rate, in tracking
the company's value creation.
Operating EBITA margin Operating EBITA as a percentage of net sales. This key ratio increases the comparability of EBITA
margin over time, since it is adjusted for the im
pact of items affecting comparability.
Operating margin
(EBIT margin)
Operating profit as a percentage of net sales. This key ratio reflects the operating profitability of
the operations. The key ratio is an important com
ponent, alongside sales growth and capital turno
ver rate, in tracking the company's value creation.
Capital structure Calculation Purpose
Net debt Interest-bearing liabilities and interest-bearing
provisions less interest-bearing assets, including
cash and equivalents.
The net debt measure is used to track the devel
opment of debt and to see the scope of the refi
nancing requirement. Since liquid funds can be
used to pay off debt at short notice, net debt is
used instead of gross debt as a measure of total
loan financing.
Net debt/operating EBITDA Net debt in relation to operating rolling 12-
month EBITDA.
This key ratio is a debt ratio showing how many
years it would take to pay off the company's liabil
ities, provided that its net debt and EBITDA are
constant and without taking cash flows relating to
interest, taxes and investments into account.
Net debt/equity ratio Net debt in relation to shareholders' equity. This key ratio is a measure of the relationship be
tween the Group's two forms of financing. The
measure shows loan capital as a share of share
holders' invested capital. The measure reflects fi
nancial strength but also the leverage effect of
borrowings. A higher debt ratio entails higher fi
nancial risk and higher financial leverage.
Interest coverage ratio Profit after net financial items plus financial ex
penses in relation to financial expenses.
This key ratio indicates the company's capacity to
cover its interest expenses.
Equity/assets ratio Shareholders' equity including non-controlling in
terests as a percentage of total assets.
This key ratio reflects the company's financial po
sition. A favorable equity/assets ratio provides a
preparedness to manage periods of recession and
financial preparedness for growth. At the same
time, a higher equity/assets ratio provides lower
financial leverage.
Operating capital Total assets less cash and equivalents, other in
terest-bearing assets and non-interest-bearing
provisions and liabilities.
Operating capital shows the amount of capital that
the business requires to conduct its core opera
tions. It is primarily used for the calculation of re
turn on operating capital.

Return measures Calculation Purpose
Return on shareholders' equity Profit after tax, rolling 12-month (RTM), attribut
able to the Parent Company's shareholders as
a percentage of average shareholders' equity,
excluding non-controlling interest (average cal
culated based on the past four quarters).
Return on shareholders' equity shows the total re
turn, in accounting terms, on shareholders' capital
and reflects the effects of both the profitability of
the operations and of financial leverage. The
measure is primarily used to analyze profitability
for shareholders over time.
Return on operating
capital
EBITA rolling 12-month (RTM), as a percentage of
average operating capital (average calculated
based on the past four quarters).
Return on operating capital shows how well the
operations use the net capital tied up in the oper
ations. This reflects the combined effect of the op
erating margin and the turnover rate for operating
capital. The key ratio is mainly used to track the
Group's value creation over time.
Share data Calculation Purpose
Cash flow per share before/
after dilution
Cash flow from operating activities for the period
divided by the weighted average number of
shares outstanding for the period before/after
dilution.
This key ratio measures the cash flow per share
generated by the operations before capital invest
ments and cash flows attributable to the com
pany's financing.
Shareholders' equity per share
before/after dilution
Shareholders' equity attributable to Parent Com
pany shareholders divided by the number of
shares outstanding at the end of the period be
fore/after dilution.
This key ratio serves to describe the scale of the
company's net worth per share.
