Review of third quarter

Market development

The overall order intake for Atlas Copco Group's equipment and services remained basically at the same level as the previous year. Sequentially, order volumes were largely unchanged.

Year-on-year, order volumes for large and small industrial compressors were essentially unchanged, while the order intake for gas and process compressors did not reach the high level of the previous year. Orders for vacuum equipment increased due to stronger demand from the semiconductor and flat panel industry, while the demand for vacuum equipment from industrial and scientific customers decreased. The order intake for industrial assembly and vision solutions decreased, primarily due to markedly weaker demand from the automotive industry. Order volumes for industrial assembly and vision solutions to the general industry were basically unchanged. The demand for portable compressors and power and flow equipment decreased. However, due to contributions from recent acquisitions the order intake increased. Solid order growth was achieved for the service business in all business areas and the specialty rental business continued to develop positively in the quarter.

In total, the Group's order intake grew somewhat in Asia but decreased in North America and Europe.

Accounting principles

The consolidated accounts of Atlas Copco Group are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the EU. The description of the accounting principles and definitions applied in this report are found in the Annual Report 2023. The interim report is prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. Non-IFRS measures are also presented in the report since they are considered to be important supplemental measures of the company´s performance. For further information about these measures and how they have been calculated, please visit:

Risks, risk management and factors of uncertainty

Atlas Copco Group's global and diversified business is active within many customer segments and results in a variety of risks and opportunities geographically and operationally. Thus, the ability to identify, analyze and manage risks is crucial for effective governance and control of the business. The aim is to meet the Group's goals with a high awareness of risks and well-managed risk taking. Atlas Copco Group sees the benefits of an efficient risk management both from risk reduction and business opportunity perspectives, which can lead to good business growth.

Risks in Atlas Copco Group are identified in a 360-degree spectrum, meaning that both internal, and external exposures are assessed, including today's circumstances and future changes. The Group's risk management approach follows the decentralized structure of Atlas Copco Group. Risks are analyzed and addressed in an integrated way. Local companies are responsible for their own risk management, which is monitored and followed up regularly at for example local business board meetings. Group functions responsible for legal, insurance, human resources, compliance, sustainability, treasury, tax, controlling and accounting provide policies, guidelines and instructions regarding risk management.

Risk areas include compliance risks, external exposure risks, including pandemics, operational risks and strategic risks. These risk areas can impact the business negatively both in the long and short term, but often also create business opportunities if managed well. Examples of risks and how they are handled is described below.

Market risks

The demand for Atlas Copco Group's equipment and services is affected by changes in the customers' investment and production levels. A general economic downturn, geopolitical tensions, pandemics, changes in trade agreements, trade sanctions, a widespread financial crisis and other macroeconomic disturbances may, directly or indirectly, affect the Group negatively both in terms of revenues and profitability. However, the Group's sales are well diversified with customers in many industries and countries around the world, which mitigates the risk.

Financial risks

Atlas Copco Group is subject to currency risks, funding risks, interest rate risks, tax risks, and other financial risks. In line with the overall goals with respect to growth, return on capital, and protecting creditors, Atlas Copco Group has adopted a policy to control the financial risks to which the Group is exposed. A financial risk management committee meets regularly to manage and follow up financial risks, in line with the policy.

Production risks

A large part of the components used in production are sourced from subsuppliers. The availability is dependent on the sub-suppliers and if they have interruptions or lack capacity, this may adversely affect production. To minimize these risks, Atlas Copco Group has established a global network of sub-suppliers, which means that in most cases there are more than one sub-supplier that can provide a certain component. Atlas Copco Group is also directly and indirectly exposed to raw material prices. Cost increases for raw materials and components often coincide with strong end-customer demand and can partly be compensated for by increased sales prices.

Acquisitions

Atlas Copco Group has the ambition to grow all its business areas, primarily through organic growth, supplemented by selected acquisitions. The integration of acquired businesses is a difficult process and it is not certain that every integration will be successful. Therefore, costs related to acquisitions can be higher and/or synergies can take longer to materialize than anticipated.

For more information on Atlas Copco Group's risk management process and further descriptions of risks and how they are handled, see the Annual Report 2023.

Forward-looking statements

Some statements in this report are forward-looking, and the actual outcome could be materially different. In addition to the factors explicitly discussed, other factors could have a material effect on the actual outcome. Such factors include, but are not limited to, general business conditions, fluctuations in exchange rates and interest rates, political developments, the impact of competing products and their pricing, product development, commercialization and technological difficulties, interruptions in supply, and major customer credit losses.
