CEO's comment

The year started well for us, and we delivered a good first quarter. Demand in mining was strong, while the cutting tools and infrastructure businesses continued to be impacted by the uncertain macro environment. We continued to make steady strategic progress, for example by making acquisitions that will strengthen our position in CAM, and by launching innovations that will further enhance our customer relations and leading positions. The recent escalated global tariff announcements will impact the macroeconomic environment going forward. While it has not had an impact on demand to date, it is too early to draw any conclusions on how it will affect our industries and market segments going forward.

Organic order intake and revenues grew by 2%, and by 1%, respectively. I am also very pleased with the improvement in the operating profit margin to 19.7%, which is strong given that volumes are seasonally low in the first quarter. Free operating cash flow amounted to SEK 3.8 billion, corresponding to a cash conversion of 70%, in line with normal seasonality.

Sandvik Mining and Rock Solutions noted positive momentum in the first quarter. Organic order intake grew by 10% year on year, driven by strong growth in the equipment business. We also saw continued strong underlying demand in the aftermarket business, with double digit growth in the Parts and Services division. I am pleased to see that despite a more uncertain macroeconomic backdrop, our customers invest for the longer term. During the quarter we won three major orders totaling SEK 977 million,

comprising of our world leading trucks, loaders and drill rigs, and the order pipeline is robust. We are proud of the innovations we have launched, and a key highlight was the launch of the electric intelligent rotary blasthole drill rig range.

Sandvik Rock Processing Solutions continued to note stable demand in mining, while infrastructure activity remained subdued in most markets. Organic order intake declined by 2%, while revenues increased by 8%. The signs of positive business climate in the US that was highlighted at the end of 2024 continued, but are more uncertain by the newly announced tariffs. In April, we announced the acquisition of Osa Demolition Equipment (OSA), an Italy-based manufacturer of demolition tools and hydraulic hammers. The acquisition is a step in our ambition to grow in attractive niches within segments such as demolition and recycling.

"We delivered solid results with improvements in all key financial metrics"

Organic order intake in Sandvik Manufacturing and Machining Solutions declined by 6%, with mid-single digit growth of our software business and a corresponding decline in cutting tools. The most negative development was seen in Europe and within automotive, while the underlying demand in aerospace is positive. Overall this represents a stable daily order intake from the fourth quarter, in line with normal seasonality. During the quarter, we continued our roll-up of CAM resellers with seven acquisitions, contributing to a stronger position in CAM with improved capabilities to serve our customers and realize synergies across our software brands. We also announced the acquisitions of Verisurf, within hardware-agnostic industrial metrology, and parts of CIMCO, a developer of software modules that is complementary to our Mastercam product.

To conclude, I am very pleased with the performance of the quarter. We delivered solid results with improvements in all key financial metrics, continued to demonstrate our resilience, and made important strategic progress in a challenging macroeconomic and geopolitical environment. Now we are once again facing a new set of challenges with tariffs and barriers to global trade. We have prepared for scenarios like this. Thanks to our global footprint, with manufacturing capabilities in all major regions, and our strong market positions with solutions that add value to our customers, we will be able to manage also this situation. With tariffs at the current levels, and through our ongoing mitigations, we expect that the margin impact will be limited. We will continue to leverage on our strong platform with relentless focus on delivering on our targets and strategic ambitions.

Total order intake grew by 2%, and at fixed exchange rates by 3%, of which 2% organically. Total revenues increased by 1%. At fixed exchange rates, growth was 2%, of which organic 1%. Positive book to bill of 112%.

Good momentum was noted in the mining business, and commodity prices continued at high levels. Despite the prevailing macro-economic uncertainties, customers' capex projections remains optimistic. Strong demand was noted for both equipment and parts and services in the period. The ambitions to improve safety and productivity in the mines are high on the agenda, and during the quarter Sandvik made significant strides in automation and safety solutions, with important customer implementations of AutoMine® and Newtrax Advanced Proximity Detection System (APDS) solutions. Demand in infrastructure remained subdued, and while stock levels came down in important regions, the general uncertainty had an impact on customer activity. Both Sandvik Mining and Rock Solutions, and Sandvik Rock Processing Solutions reported particularly strong growth in Australia.

The sentiment in industrial manufacturing remained muted in the quarter, reflected in recent PMIs, and demand in general engineering declined year on year. While announcements of increased government spending in areas where Sandvik has presence contributed to a positive outlook, the global tariffs announcements overshadowed the sentiment in the market. Order intake development was stable in Asia, with strong growth in India, while negative in North America and in Europe. The specific challenges in automotive continued and demand in the quarter was soft. Underlying demand in aerospace was stable, with negative order development in North America, off-set by positive development in Europe.

year-earlier period.
Interest net Estimated at approximately SEK -0.8 billion in 2025.
Tax rate Estimated at 23-25% for 2025, normalized.

Accounting policies

Sandvik Group applies IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU. With exception for new and revised standards and interpretations effective from January 1, 2025 the same accounting and valuation policies were applied as in Sandvik Group Annual Report 2024. There are no new accounting policies applicable from 2025 that significantly affects Sandvik Group. This report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's RFR 2, Reporting for Legal Entities.

Transactions with related parties

No transactions between Sandvik and related parties that significantly affected the company's position and results took place.

Sandvik has four long-term financial targets, defined in 2022

Growth

A growth of 7% through a business cycle organic and M&A, in fixed currency.

Adjusted EBITA range

An adjusted EBITA range of 20–22% through a business cycle adjusted for IAC.

Dividend payout ratio

A dividend payout ratio of 50% of EPS, adjusted for IAC, through a business cycle.

Financial net debt/EBITDA

A financial net debt/EBITDA of <1.5 excl. transformational M&A.

Sustainability

The 2030 sustainability targets focus on the areas of circularity, climate, people and ethics. These targets are reported on a quarterly basis and can be found on page 9.

Risk assessment

As an international group with a wide geographic spread, Sandvik is exposed to several strategic, business and financial risks. Strategic risk at Sandvik is defined as emerging risks affecting the business long-term, such as industry shifts, technological shifts, macroeconomic, geopolitical and environmental developments. The business risks can be divided into operational, sustainability, compliance, legal and commercial risks. The financial risks include currency risks, interest rates, raw material prices, tax risks, increased trade tariffs and more. These risk areas can all impact the business negatively both long and short term but often also create business opportunities if managed well.

Risk management at Sandvik begins with an assessment in operational management teams where the material risks for their operations are first identified, followed by an evaluation of the probability of the risks occurring and their potential impact on the Group. Once the key risks have been identified and evaluated risk mitigating activities to eliminate or reduce the risks are agreed on.

For a more detailed description of Sandvik's analysis of risks and risk universe, see the Annual Report for 2024.

Tariffs

Sandvik is a global company with international trade flows. In response to the current changes in international tariffs Sandvik is taking measures to limit the financial impact, including re-routing trade flows, reviewing tariff clauses in commercial agreements and notifying customers on potential upcoming tariff surcharges. Sandvik is also preparing for increased production capacity in the US if the tariff rates would increase materially from current levels. At current levels, the tariffs are expected to have limited margin impact, but it is difficult to fully predict due to the complexity of the situation. However, the potential indirect tariff impact of a weaker global economy is a risk for Sandvik that could have a material impact.
