Strong execution in a challenging market

The year took off with strong sales growth of 9%, driven by very strong net acquired growth of 11%, which was partly offset by an organic sales decline of –2%. The organic sales were affected by three fewer working days in March, the most important month of the quarter and a continued weak residential market. Entrance Systems' organic sales were stable with very strong growth in Perimeter and strong growth in the Pedestrian segment. Organic sales in Americas and EMEIA declined by –1% and –3% respectively. Asia Pacific's organic sales declined by –3% due to a weak Chinese market and negative intra-group sales growth. Global Technologies' organic sales declined by –9% against a high corresponding figure last year due to the significant reduction of the backlog a year ago.

The operating profit excluding items affecting comparability increased by 5% to SEK 5,427 M, and the operating margin was record-high for the quarter at 16.3%, excluding the HHI transaction. Strong operational execution through implementation of more cost actions, continued strong price realization and lower direct material costs contributed to the strong performance. The operating cash flow was seasonally lower at SEK 3,096 M with a cash conversion of 67%.

Security is a strong underlying driver for long-term growth

The demand for safe and secure access solutions is constantly increasing as a result of rising security threats, public safety concerns, regulatory requirements and a changing work environment. This also accelerates the demand for electromechanical products and solutions. They offer a high level of security thanks to advanced authentication methods, our unique encryption technologies, the enablement of remote monitoring & control as well as by providing audit trails and access logs. Electromechanical solutions also offer opportunities for efficiency gains and a higher level of convenience and flexibility for our customers. With prevailing penetration rates still low, the shift to more electromechanical solutions continues to be a long-term driver of profitable growth. During the quarter, our electromechanical organic sales growth was 6% in the regional divisions.

We acquired three companies in the first quarter, representing annualized sales of SEK 2 billion. The integration of HHI continues to proceed according to plan and we are gradually realizing more synergies. Given a robust target pipeline and a solid financial position with a strong balance sheet and cash flow, we are well positioned to continue our successful journey of acquiring companies.

We are committed to delivering value to our customers and shareholders and are confident that we will be able to adapt to and perform in any market condition.

Thank you for your continued support and trust in ASSA ABLOY.

No new or amended standards with material impact on the Group's financial reports have been applied for the first time in 2024.

This Report was prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" and the Annual Accounts Act. The Report for the Parent Company was prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 "Reporting by a Legal Entity".

ASSA ABLOY makes use of a number of financial performance measures that are not defined in the reporting rules that the company uses – described as "alternative performance measures." For definitions of financial performance measures, refer to Page 17 of this Report. Information about how these measures have been calculated is available on the company's website, www.assaabloy.com.

To reconcile how the financial measurements have been calculated for current and earlier periods, refer to the tabulated figures in this Quarterly Report and to the company's Annual Report. The Annual Reports for the years 1994 to 2023 appear on the company's website.

All comparative numbers for income statement and cash flow items relate to the corresponding period last year, unless otherwise indicated. Comparative numbers for the balance sheet relate to the most recent year-end, unless otherwise indicated.

Totals quoted in tables and statements may not always be the exact sum of the individual items because of rounding differences. The aim is that each line item should correspond to its source, and rounding differences may therefore arise.

No transactions that significantly affected the company's position and income have taken place between ASSA ABLOY and related parties.

ASSA ABLOY is an international Group with a wide geographical spread, involving exposure to various forms of strategic, operational and financial risks. Strategic risks refer to changes in the business environment with potentially significant effects on ASSA ABLOY's operations and business objectives. Operational risks comprise risks directly attributable to business operations, entailing a potential impact on the Group's financial position and performance.

Financial risks mainly comprise financing risk, currency risk, interest-rate risk, credit risk, and risks associated with the Group's pension obligations.

Risk-taking in itself provides opportunities for continued economic growth, but naturally the risks may also have a negative impact on business operations and company goals. It is therefore essential to have a systematic and efficient risk assessment process and an effective risk management program in general.

The purpose of risk management at ASSA ABLOY is not to avoid risks, but to take a controlled approach to identifying, managing and minimizing the effects of these risks. This work is based on an assessment of the probability of the risks and their potential impact on the Group.

The war in Ukraine and the conflict in the Middle East may have a negative business impact on ASSA ABLOY both short- and long-term, but the direct business effects are currently seen as limited. For a more detailed description of particular risks and risk management, please see the 2023 Annual Report.

The guidance below relating to two key figures is provided to facilitate financial modeling but should not be viewed as forecasting market outlooks or ASSA ABLOY's business performance.

Acquisitions and divestments

It is estimated that completed acquisitions and divestments, on a rolling 12 month basis as of March 31, 2024, will have an effect of 12% on sales in the second quarter of 2024 versus the same period last year, while the effect on the operating margin is estimated to be dilutive in the second quarter of 2024.

Exchange-rate effects

On the basis of the currency rates on March 31, 2024, it is estimated that the weighted currency effects on sales in the second quarter of 2024 versus the same period last year will be –1%, while the effect on the operating margin is estimated to be neutral in the second quarter of 2024.

The Company's Auditors have not carried out any review of this Report for the first quarter of 2024.
