The second quarter (July – September 2025) meant a positive continuation of the financial year for Lagercrantz, with mainly stable market conditions and good growth. We noted a slight improvement in order intake compared to previous periods, which together with good contributions from our acquisitions led to an improved result. All in all, profit after net financial items (EBT) increased by 17% to MSEK 343 (293) and the operating margin (EBITA) strengthened to 17.9% (17.8). Cash flow was good and the acquisition market is still estimated to be favourable. So far in the financial year, we have completed five exciting acquisitions, which add total annual revenue of almost MSEK 600 with good profitability.
The trends from previous periods continued during the second quarter. Net revenue increased by 13% to MSEK 2,457 (2,172) and the order intake was grew with 5% on comparable units, adjusted for exchange rate changes. Most of our divisions contributed with strong profits and improved margins, which was mainly driven by high value creation in existing units and good profitability in recently acquired companies. We are thus continuing to head towards our longterm goal of doubling our profit to SEK 2 billion within five years, which was communicated in autumn 2023.
Once again, the result shows the strength of our business model. As a serial acquirer without an exit horizon, we build long-term value by acquiring and developing profitable technology companies with strong market positions in niches. The business model gives us flexibility to handle varying economic conditions, where periods of lower organic growth can be offset by acquisitions. Our many subsidiary management teams also make impressive efforts and act with accountability, businessmanship and a good willingness to change – in line with our corporate philosophy of decentralisation, simplicity and freedom.
Acquisition activity has remained high. In the past 12 months, we have welcomed ten new niche and highly profitable businesses to the Group, which add combined annual revenue of about MSEK 1,125. During the first six months, MT Miljøteknik in Denmark was added, which is an add-on acquisition to the subsidiary company Wapro's water management cluster in Niche Products. In June, Orax was acquired, a leading provider of products for the management of cemeteries in Sweden, Epoke in Denmark, which manufactures winter road maintenance equipment, as well as Friggeråkers Verkstäder in Sweden, which manufactures sand and salt spreaders under the Falköping brand. In August, the subsidiary Direktronik also acquired the Swedish company Qvintus, which supplies instruments for measuring temperature and pressure. Lagercrantz continues to have a strong financial position with the scope for further acquisitions. The acquisition situation is still considered to be interesting and we have several attractive transactions under evaluation.
Looking ahead, we are cautiously optimistic about the coming quarter. Despite the geopolitical uncertainty, the market situation is stable, with a gradual improvement for most of the Group's businesses, even though the construction sector continues to show low growth. Lagercrantz has a strong financial position, which creates resilience and the scope for further acquisitions. We will thus continue on our chosen path of building a strong technology group with leading positions in expansive niches – and with long-term value creation as our guiding principle. The Group's broad exposure with niche B2B technology companies in attractive and sustainable sectors, such as electrification, infrastructure and security & safety solutions, provides both stability and good growth opportunities.

During the second quarter, the market situation was stable overall, with a slight improvement compared to the same period last year. However, demand varied among the Group's companies and segments, where the construction-related segment is performing weakly while electrification, infrastructure and defence-related segments noted a strong development. This meant that the Electrify, International and TecSec divisions reported good order intake, while the situation was more sluggish in the Control and Niche Products divisions.
Total order intake for comparable units was slightly above invoiced sales during the quarter and increased organically with 5% compared to corresponding quarter last year, adjusted for exchange rate changes that impacted negatively by 2%.
Net revenue in the second quarter increased by 13% to MSEK 2,457 (2,172), where acquisitions contributed 14% and organic growth was 1%. Exchange rate fluctuations impacted net revenue negatively by 2%.
Operating profit (EBITA) increased by 14% to MSEK 440 (387) and the EBITA margin strengthened to 17.9% (17.8), where the Electrify, International and Control divisions contributed particularly strong improvements in earnings.
Profit after financial items increased by 17% to MSEK 343 (293), where the increase was due to acquisitions.
Net financial items amounted to MSEK -40 (-43), of which net interest items amounted to MSEK -40 (-40) and currency translation effects amounted to MSEK -2 (-1).
Profit after taxes increased by 16% to MSEK 260 (224), where the effective tax rate amounted to 24% (24%).
Net revenue in the first six months increased by 11% to MSEK 4,930 (4,425), where acquisitions contributed 12% and organic growth was 2%. Exchange rate fluctuations impacted net revenue negatively by 3%.
Operating profit (EBITA) increased by 13% to MSEK 872 (772) and the EBITA margin strengthened to 17.7% (17.4). The share of proprietary products on a moving 12-month basis increased to 79% (77%).
Profit after financial items increased by 15% to MSEK 686 (594), where the increase was explained by acquisitions and some organic growth. Net financial items in the six-month period amounted to MSEK -75 (-77), of which net interest items amounted to MSEK -74 (-77) and currency translation effects amounted to MSEK -3 (1).
Profit after taxes in the six-month period increased by 18% to MSEK 523 (445), where the effective tax rate amounted to 24% (25%).
Earnings per share after dilution for the latest 12-month period increased to SEK 5.32, compared to SEK 4.93 for the 2024/25 financial year.

343 | 293 | 686 | 594 | 1,298 |
The Electrify division's net revenue increased by 17% to MSEK 622 (533), where 9% was added through acquisitions, 9% organically and -1% currency. Operating profit (EBITA) increased by 32% to MSEK 132 (100), equivalent to an operating margin of 21.2% (18.8).
The market climate remained favourable within both electrification and infrastructure. This contributed to another strong quarter with high growth and improved margins, both through organic development and acquisitions.
Improvements in earnings were noted in most of the businesses, with a particularly good performance in Nordic Road Safety, Elkapsling, Elfac, EFC, Enkom, KPRO and Norwesco.
The recently acquired PPV also delivered a good result and Mastsystem reported strong order intake during the quarter.
The Control division's net revenue for the quarter increased by 13% to MSEK 317 (281), where 13% was added through acquisitions, 3% organically and -3% currency. Operating profit (EBITA) increased by 43% to MSEK 48 (34), equivalent to an operating margin of 15.1% (12.1).
A continued stable market situation combined with successful acquisitions contributed to a good improvement in earnings and margins during the quarter.
CP Cases continued its positive development, while Leteng, MH Modules, Stegborgs and Precimeter also delivered good improvements in earnings. Meanwhile, several smaller businesses continued to face challenging market conditions.
The recently acquired He-Man in the UK, which manufactures supplemental and duplicate control systems for vehicles, has made a good start in Lagercrantz.
In August, the subsidiary Direktronik acquired the Swedish company Qvintus, which manufactures instruments for measuring temperature and pressure.

The TecSec division's net revenue decreased by 4% to MSEK 492 (511), where 0% was added through acquisitions, -1% organically and -2% currency. Operating profit (EBITA) amounted to MSEK 68 (87), equivalent to an operating margin of 13.8% (17.0).
Several of the safety & security companies in the division performed well in a continued stable market situation, for instance ARAS, COBS, Frictape and Idesco. ISG Nordic and Suomen Diesel Voima also noted continued good order intake but reported a slightly weaker profit in the quarter.
The division's largest business, PcP, and the more construction-related businesses - R-CON, Principal Doorsets and CWL - remain affected by a weak market.
The Niche Products division's net revenue increased by 10% to MSEK 520 (472), where 17% was added through acquisitions, -5% organically and -2% currency. Operating profit (EBITA) decreased by 6% to MSEK 102 (108), equivalent to an operating margin of 19.2% (22.9).
Niche Products delivered a slightly weaker quarter due to a weak organic development for Tormek, Asept, Truxor, Westmatic, among other units, which performed significantly below the previous year's results, partly due to a more uncertain market situation in the US.
Prido, which manufactures industrial folding doors, continued to develop strongly, as did the recently acquired Van Leeuwen Test Group in the Netherlands. Even Profsafe, SIB, Thermod and Waterproof reported improvements.
The International division's net revenue increased by 35% to MSEK 506 (375), where 39% was added through acquisitions, 0% organically and -4% currency. Operating profit (EBITA) increased by 47% to MSEK 97 (66), equivalent to an operating margin of 19.2% (17.6).
The market situation was generally stable and the International division delivered a strong quarter with good growth and improved margins, mainly driven by the two acquisitions, Epoke A/S in Denmark and Friggeråkers Verkstäder AB in Sweden, which were carried out in June and July.
The marine business Libra in Norway, DP Seals in the UK and G9 in Denmark continued to perform strongly. NST in Denmark as well as Schmitztechnik and Unitronic in Germany, also contributed positively to the result.

The Group's net indebtedness, including pension liability of MSEK 55 (62) and lease liability of MSEK 492 (430), amounted to MSEK 4,580 (3,278) at the end of the period, where the change was mainly due to acquisitions.
Cash flow from operating activities increased by 2% to MSEK 265 (261) for the second quarter and by 11% to MSEK 553 (496) for the six-month period, where the change was mainly explained by a higher profit.
Acquisitions and disposals, including settlement of contingent consideration relating to acquisitions carried out in previous years, amounted to MSEK 427 (192) in the second quarter and to MSEK 770 (203) for the sixmonth period.
Net investments in non-current assets amounted to MSEK 50 (46) for the second quarter and to MSEK 96 (63) for the six-month period.

During the 2025/26 financial year, five companies have been acquired. In April 2025, 90% of the shares in MT Miljøteknik ApS in Denmark were acquired, a leading manufacturer of products for freshwater and wastewater distribution networks. MT Miljøteknik is an add-on acquisition to Wapro in the Niche Products division and generates annual revenue of about MDKK 25.
In June 2025, AB Orax was acquired for the Control division. Orax is a leading product and full-service supplier, particularly for the management of cemeteries throughout Sweden and generates annual revenue of about MSEK 50.
In June 2025, Epoke A/S in Denmark was acquired for the International division. Epoke is a leading
manufacturer of equipment for winter road maintenance equipment and generates annual revenue of about MDKK 240.
In July, Friggeråkers Verkstäder AB in Sweden was acquired for the International division. Friggeråkers, under the Falköping brand, is a leading Swedish manufacturer of sand and salt spreaders and generates annual revenue of about MSEK 110.
In August, the Swedish company AB Qvintus was acquired, which manufactures and supplies instruments for measuring temperature and pressure. The company generates annual revenue of approximately MSEK 25 and is an add-on acquisition to Direktronik.

Lagercrantz normally uses an acquisition structure with a fixed purchase price and contingent consideration as well as options on any minority shares. The outcome of contingent considerations depends on the future results achieved in the companies and has a set maximum level. Not yet paid contingent considerations for acquisitions have a book value of MSEK 312 (342). These fall due for payment within three years and the maximum outcome can be MSEK 405 (506).
Remeasurement of contingent considerations had a net effect in the quarter of MSEK -2 (3), where the effect on earnings is recognised in other operating income and other operating expenses, respectively.
During the second quarter, MSEK 124 (0) was paid in contingent consideration for previous acquisitions and MSEK 16 (0) in exercise of call options for acquisition of outstanding minority shares.
Transaction costs, including any stamp duty, for the quarter's acquisitions amounted to MSEK 4 (5) and are reported in the item administrative expenses.
The preliminary purchase price allocations since 1 October 2024 in the table below include Mastsystem Int'l Oy, Track Analysis Systems Ltd, Plast & Plåt Vägmärken, Van Leeuwen Test Group, HM Holding Ltd, MT Miljøteknik ApS, AB Orax, Epoke A/S, Friggeråkers Verkstäder AB and AB Qvintus.

The Interim Report for the Group has been prepared in accordance with IFRS standards as adopted by the EU with application of IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. Apart from in the financial statements and accompanying notes, disclosures according to IAS 34.16A are also presented in other parts of the report. The Interim Report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Securities Markets Act, which is in accordance with the provisions of RFR 2, Accounting for Legal Entities.
The same accounting policies and calculation methods as in the most recent annual report have been applied in the interim report. There are no new IFRS standards or IFRIC interpretations approved by the EU, which are applicable for Lagercrantz, or that have a significant effect on the Group's results and financial position for 2025/26.
As of the financial year 2025/26, a new assessment is applied to two internal loans in DKK to the Danish holding company. The loans are now classified as financial loans, in order to better reflect the purpose of the financing, whereas they were previously reported as an extended net investment.
This change means that foreign exchange translation effects will henceforth be recognised in the Group's net financial items, instead of previously in other comprehensive income.
Otherwise, the company applies the significant estimates and judgments, as stated in the annual report for 2024/25.

Lagercrantz presents certain financial metrics in the interim report that are not defined according to IFRS. The company considers that these metrics provide supplementary information to investors and shareholders as they enable evaluation of trends and the company's performance. They should not be regarded as a substitute for metrics defined according to IFRS.
For definitions and reconciliation tables for the key performance indicators that Lagercrantz uses, see pages 16–17.
Transactions between Lagercrantz and related parties with a significant impact on the company's financial position and results have not occurred.
Lagercrantz's results and financial position are affected by a number of internal factors, which Lagercrantz controls and a number of external factors where the possibility to influence the course of events is limited. The most important risk factors for the Group are the economic situation, combined with structural changes in the market, customer and supplier dependence, the competitive situation, pandemics, cyber security risks as well as geopolitical uncertainty close to the main markets.
For more information, please see the Risks and uncertainty factors section on pages 50–51 in the 2024/25 Annual Report.
The Parent Company is impacted by the abovementioned risks and uncertainty factors through its capacity as owner of subsidiaries.
Lagercrantz's share-based incentive programme 2025/29 of 800,000 call options was fully subscribed, see information under Share capital.
No other significant events for the company have occurred after the end of the period.
The 2025 AGM was held on 26 August 2025 in Stockholm. Minutes from the AGM are published on the company's website.
The Board of Directors and the CEO believe that the undersigned interim report provides a true and fair view of the Company's and the Group's operations, their financial position and performance and describes the material risks and uncertainty factors facing the Company and the Group.
