Definition

Revenue, order intake and order backlog from work related to renewables and transitional energy solutions. This mainly includes projects with solutions and technologies for offshore wind, hydropower, aquaculture, carbon capture and storage (CCS), hydrogen, electrification of offshore and onshore facilities, and decommissioning & recycling.

These figures are compiled from a bottom-up approach of projects and work in Aker Solutions for the relevant periods. The figures are unaudited and subject to change.

Basis for Preparation

This presentation provides financial highlights for the quarter for Aker Solutions, a Norwegian limited company listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange.

The same measurement principles as presented in the Annual Report 2023 have been used when preparing this report. The report does not meet all disclosure requirements in IAS 34 (Interim Financial Reporting) and the figures are not audited.

Alternative Performance Measures

Aker Solutions discloses alternative performance measures in addition to those normally required by IFRS as such performance measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties.

Alternative performance measures are meant to provide an enhanced insight into the operations, financing and future prospects of the company.

Profit Measures

EBITDA and EBIT terms are presented as they are used by financial analysts and investors. Special items are excluded from EBITDA and EBIT as alternative measures to provide enhanced insight into the financial development of the business operations and to improve comparability between different periods.

EBITDA is short for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA corresponds to the "operating income before depreciation, amortization and impairment" in the consolidated income statement in the annual report.

EBIT is short for earnings before interest and taxes. EBIT corresponds to "operating income" in the consolidated income statement in the annual report.

Margins such as EBITDA margin and EBIT margin are used to compare relative profit between periods. EBITDA margin and EBIT margin are calculated as EBITDA and EBIT divided by revenue.

Special items may not be indicative of the ongoing operating result of cash flows of the company. Profit measures excluding special items are presented as alternative measures to improve comparability of the underlying business performance between the periods.

Net interest-bearing debt to EBITDA (leverage ratio) is a key financial measure that is used by management to assess the borrowing capacity of a company. The ratio shows how many years it would take for a company to pay back its debt if net debt and EBITDA are held constant. The ratio is one of the debt covenants of the company.

The ratio is calculated as net interest-bearing debt (total principal debt outstanding less unrestricted cash) divided by EBITDA. If a company has more cash than debt, the ratio can be negative. The leverage ratio for Aker Solutions does not include the effects of IFRS 16 Leasing, as the debt covenants are based on frozen GAAP.

Further, the EBITDA is calculated based on the last four quarter period and it excludes certain special items as defined in the loan agreements, such as restructuring of offices (onerous leases) and other restructuring costs.

Order Intake Measures

Order intake, order backlog and book-to-bill ratios are presented as alternative performance measures, as they are indicators of the company's revenues and operations in the future.

Order intake includes new agreed customer contracts in the period in addition to expansion of existing contracts. For construction contracts, the order intake includes the value of agreed contracts and options, and value of agreed change orders and options. It does not include potential options and change orders. For service contracts, the order intake is based on estimated customer revenue in periods that are firm in the contracts.

Order backlog represents the estimated value of remaining work on agreed customer contracts. The order backlog does not include parts of the services contracts, which is short-cycled or book-and-turn in nature. The order backlog does also not include potential growth or value of options in existing contracts.

Book-to-bill ratio is calculated as order intake divided by revenue in the period. A book-to-bill ratio higher than 1 means that the company has secured more contracts in the period than what has been executed in the same period.
