2) Refers to total operations.
Attendo opened more nursing homes during the second quarter of 2018 than ever before. The new homes are laying the foundation for organic growth and future value creation, but have negative impact on profits during the start-up phase. Attendo has opened about 2,900 beds in the past 12 months, more than double the number opened in the corresponding comparison period, and corresponding to approximately 20 percent of beds in operation.
There was strong growth in sales in the contract model Own operations, mainly through acquisitions, but also from openings of new nursing homes in the last few quarters. Attendo opened 34 homes in own operations during the second quarter, totaling 1,155 new own beds. In pace with increased market activity, the time required to fill new homes increases. Construction of 20 new homes in Finland and Sweden began. At the end of the second quarter, Attendo had 2,463 beds under construction, more than the same period in 2017, but fewer than at the end of the first quarter of 2018.
Net sales in Outsourcing were higher compared to the second quarter of 2017 as a consequence of somewhat higher sales in existing contracts and contractually agreed price adjustments. The outsourcing market is assessed as stable but challenging.
Operating profit in the second quarter was significantly below the comparison quarter 2017, due to the discontinuation of operations in individual and family care, which have been assessed as non-viable over the long term. The dynamics in this market have clearly been affected by lower demand in integration care, with changes in the supply and demand situation for the whole individual and family care market.
Underlying operating profit for the second quarter of 2018 was on par with the corresponding quarter in 2017. Costs related to the large number of openings had the main negative impact on profits. Profits were also negatively affected by lower contribution from individual and family care as well as from home care operations in Denmark. Acquisitions, profits generated by units that were in the start-up phase during the comparison period and calendar affects had positive impact on profits.
During the quarter Attendo agreed to divest the health care operations in Finland to the Finnish company Terveystalo. After the divestment, Attendo will become a dedicated social care provider in the Nordics, providing us even better opportunities to grow the core business within and outside the Nordic.
There is a great need for new nursing homes capacity well into the future. Attendo is clearly leading the industry in new establishments and the investments made today will generate value for local authorities, people who need care and our shareholders in upcoming years.
Net sales increased by 25.3 percent to SEK 2,743m (2,189) during the second quarter. Adjusted for currency effects, net sales increased by 21.7 percent. Net sales increased in all geographical markets except Denmark.
The growth is mainly attributable to acquisitions, but also to new homes in own operations, higher occupancy in own homes that were in a start-up phase during the comparison quarter and contractually agreed price increases.
Net sales increased by 31.7 percent in own operations and by 5.9 percent in outsourcing.
Operating profit (EBITA) amounted to SEK 128m (186) and the operating margin was 4.7 percent (8.5). Attendo has decided to close a number of units due to changed market conditions in individual and family care. All costs related to the closures amount to SEK 53m. Please see the section "own operations" for further information.
Operating profit (EBITA), excluding costs of discontinuing operations related to integration services and a number of individual and family care units, amounted to SEK 181m, corresponding to an operating margin of 6.6 percent (8.5). New own units have negative impact on profits as occupancy initially is low. Subsequent to the comparison quarter, Attendo has opened a record-high number of homes and thus has significantly more beds in the start-up phase than during the same period last year. Attendo is planning many additional openings in the next few quarters. As a result, new units in own operations will continue to have negative impact on profits the coming quarters.
Lower contribution from individuals and families care, including discontinued integration services units, had a negative impact on earnings year-on-year. The home care operations in Denmark also had negative effects on operating profit compared to 2017, but less than in preceding quarters.
Profits generated by acquired units and higher occupancy in own homes that were under start-up during the comparison quarter contributed positively to profits.
Calendar effects also had positive effect on profits, particularly because the Easter holiday occured only partly in the second quarter of 2018, while the holiday occured entirely in the second quarter of 2017, resulting in lower costs for the current quarter. Changes in currency exchange rates had positive effects on operating profit of SEK 4m compared to 2017.
EBIT amounted to SEK 92m (158). Amortisation of acquisition-related intangible assets was SEK 8m higher than in the comparison quarter in 2017.
At the end of the second quarter, Attendo's total number of units was 682 (489), of which 583 in own operations. The number of beds in nursing and care homes was 18,365 (13,007), of which 15,064 in own operations. There were 57 homes and 2,463 beds under construction in own operations at the end of the period.
Net sales per country, Q2 2018 41% 53% 4% 2% Sweden Finland Norway Denmark
Number of beds in own units Care for older people, people with disabilities and individuals and families
Finance net amounted to SEK -39m (-16) for the quarter, including net interest expense of SEK -31m (-14). The increase in net interest expense was mainly due to new loans raised in 2017 in connection with the acquisition of Mikeva.
Income tax was SEK -13m (-31), corresponding to a tax rate of 24.5 percent (21.8). The higher tax rate is mainly due to losses in the home care operations in Denmark.
Profit for the period amounted to SEK 40m (111), corresponding to basic earnings per share of SEK 0.25 (0.69) and diluted earnings per share of SEK 0.25 (0.69).
Attendo reports comparable figures adjusted for operations held for sale starting from 2017. Numbers related to 2016 have therefore been excluded from the tables.
Net sales for the six month period increased by 24.8 percent to SEK 5,367m (4,300). Adjusted for currency effects, net sales increased by 21.9 percent. Net sales incresed in all geographical markets except Denmark.
The growth is mainly attributable to acquisitions, but also to new homes in Own operations, higher occupancy in own homes that were in a start-up phase during the comparison quarter and contractually agreed price increases.
Net sales in own operations increased by 31.9 percent and in outsourcing by 4.2 percent.
Operating profit (EBITA) decreased to SEK 316m (425) and the operating margin decreased to 5.9 percent (9.9). Profits in the first six month were reduced by non-recurring costs of SEK 73m, of which SEK 20m refers to write-down of real estate in the first quarter.
Operating profit (EBITA) excluding non-recurring costs amounted to SEK 389m, corresponding to an operating margin of 7.2 percent. Attendo is in an expansion phase with considerably more new opened beds than historically, which initially pressures profits, but enables future profit growth. Due to the large number of openings and longer start-up period than historically, the negative effects of new units are greater than the profit improvements in units that were in the start-up phase during the comparison period. Profits were thus negatively impacted by a record-high number of new units in own operations, but also by lower profits in individual and family care, including ended integration units, as well as the negative effect on profits of the home care in Denmark.
Earnings generated by acquired units, higher occupancy in units that were in the start-up phase during the comparison period and Attendo's continuous efforts to improve planning and processes all provided positive contributions to profit.
Changes in exchange rates had positive effects on operating profit of SEK 8m compared to 2017.
EBIT decreased to SEK 247m (372). Amortisation of acquisition-related intangible assets was SEK 16m higher than during the comparison period in 2017.
Net sales per country, January-June 2018 40% 54% 4% 2% Sweden Finland Norway Denmark
Net financial items amounted to SEK -73m (-33) in the period, of which net interest amounted to SEK -55m (-31). The change is explained by essentially the same items described in the section of the second quarter.
Income tax amounted to SEK -42m (-74), corresponding to a tax rate of 24.1 percent (21.8). The change is explained by essentially the same item described in the section of the second quarter.
Profit for the period was SEK 132m (265), representing an EPS basic of SEK 0.82 (1.66) and EPS diluted of SEK 0.82 (1.65).
Operating cash flow amounted SEK 267m (262) in the second quarter, of which changes in working capital amounted to SEK 158m (93).
Cash flow from net investments in non-current assets was SEK -67m (-54) and cash flow from assets and liabilities held for sale amounted to SEK 159m (-171). Acquisitions reduced cash flow by SEK -147m (-89). Cash flow from financing activities was SEK -219m (-26).
Total cash flow in the second quarter amounted to SEK 38m (-40).
Operating cash flow for the period of January–June was SEK 368m (438) and total cash flow was SEK 264m (-20).
Consolidated equity as of 30 June 2018 amounted to SEK 5,515m (4,962), corresponding to diluted equity per share of SEK 34.31 (30.88).
Net debt amounted to SEK 4,769m (2,923).

Interest-bearing liabilities, excluding provisions for post-employment benefits, amounted to SEK 5,477m (3,549) on 30 June 2018. The increase was mainly due to new loans in connection with the acquisition of Mikeva. Cash and cash equivalents as of 30 June 2018 amounted to SEK 768m (653) and Attendo had SEK 963m (1,015) in unutilised credit facilities.
The total number of shares is 160,933,098. Attendo holds 519,423 treasury shares and the total number of shares outstanding as of 30 June 2018 was thus 160,413,675.
The average number of employees in the second quarter was 16,967 (13,674).
Interim Report January-June 2018 8 (26) 1 Refers to total operations.
Net sales in own operations amounted to SEK 2,168m (1,646) during the second quarter. The growth of 31.7 percent is attributable to acquisitions and new own nursing homes.
A total of 34 homes with 1,155 beds were opened during the quarter: 31 homes in Finland with 954 beds and 3 homes in Sweden with 201 beds. This was the highest rate of openings in Attendo's history. At the end of the period, Attendo had 15,064 beds in Own operations, an increase by 57.7 percent since the same quarter in 2017.
Demand for integration services has declined sharply, and during 2017 Attendo started to phase-out integration care units. Reduced demand for integration care has led to oversupply of care homes in the market. This, in combination with a changed purchasing pattern from local authorities, has resulted in tougher market conditions for the individual and family care market in Sweden as a whole. Attendo has converted a number of integration care units to other care units. Given the current market conditions, a large part of those converted units are no longer predicted to be long term attractive.
As a result of these factors, Attendo has taken all costs to close all remaining integration care units and a number of other individual and family care units that have been assessed as lacking conditions for sustainable profitability.
The decision covers a total of 18 units with approximately 250 beds. Attendo's assessment is that the remaining individual and family care units have attractive service offerings with high specialization and good conditions for long-term value creation.
Attendo is also reviewing its home care operations, which includes closure of units that lack long-term prospects. By focusing on home care with higher customer density and where conditions are sound, profitability is expected to improve over time.
During the quarter construction began on 20 homes, mainly nursing homes, with a total of 770 beds: 614 beds in Finland and 156 beds in Sweden. Due to the high number of openings, the number of beds under construction declined to 2,463 beds at the end of the quarter.

Interim Report January-June 2018 9 (26)
Net sales in outsourcing increased by 5.9 percent to SEK 575m (543) during the quarter. The increase in net sales is attributed to slightly higher sales in some existing contracts, contractually agreed price increases and currency effects.
Attendo was awarded contracts in several price- and quality-based procurement processes during the quarter. In Linköping, Attendo was entrusted to continue to operate the nursing homes Bantorget and Duvan and was granted new contracts for several care homes: Ånestad, Kvarnbacken, Brushanen, Villa Ryd, Garnisonen and Hagalund.
During the quarter, Attendo won new, not yet started, contracts with estimated annual revenue of approximately SEK 100m, and lost ongoing, not yet ended, contracts with annual revenue of approximately SEK 70m.

While quality improvement in Attendo takes place on several levels of the company, the starting point is always focusing on the needs of the individual. Focus during the quarter in Attendo's nursing homes was on outdoor activities, where the "Attendo Walk," a recurring exercise activity, was held in several locations in Scandinavia.
There can be a high threshold for people with disabilities to participating in leisure activities. Aimed at lowering those thresholds, Attendo organised an evening out for people with disabilities in the town Hämeenlinna in Finland. Attendo rented one of the biggest nightclubs in town and invited people with disabilities for an all-night event. The participants enjoyed themselves, the event was covered by the media and the local authority expressed its appreciation.
Each year, Attendo appoints the best unit in Scandinavia. This year, Attendo Solgårdsgatan group home in Gävle, Sweden, was given the award in the care category. The business is managed by the local manager Karin Löbergsli Roslund. The winner in the care for older people category was Attendo's home care in Västerås, Sweden. The business is managed by the local manager Eva Rothoff.
There is an ongoing project in Attendo where nurses from The Philippines are recruited to work in Sweden and Finland. The candidates start by working as nurse trainees in Attendo's nursing homes until they are qualified to receive a license. During the second quarter, Muriel Dela Cruz at Attendo Duvan in Linköping was the first person in the programme to obtain a Swedish nurse license.
One of Attendo's local managers, Linda Berntsson at Attendo Fiskbäck in Gothenburg, was acknowledged for outstanding leadership during the second quarter. The award is given by the Centre for Welfare Studies at the University of Borås and is intended to recognise managers in the social and health care industry for sustainable leadership. Linda Berntsson is the first manager in a private company to ever be nominated.
As one of the leading social and health care companies, Attendo is a stable employer with collective agreements, contract insurance and good opportunities for personal development. Attendo values education and encourages higher education. At the same time other experiences and that the candidate shares our core values plays a big role in recruitment. To capture how satisfied the employees are with their work and their manager, regular employee surveys are conducted. The results provide important information about what works well and what needs to be improved.
Attendo's Quality reports are available at: http://www.attendo.com/aboutattendo/focus-on-quality
There was good demand for Attendo's own operations offering, with continued high interest from Swedish local authorities needing to expand the number of beds, mainly in care for older people. Contracted volumes in the outsourcing market in care for older people were higher in the second quarter of 2018 than in the previous quarter and the same period in 2017. Contracted volumes in care homes for people with disabilities have also increased in relation to the preceding quarter.
In June 2018, the Swedish parliament, (Riksdag) rejected the Swedish Government's Bill to restrict profits for private welfare services providers.
Demand for Attendo's own operations remained good in Finland and is linked to the need to replace outdated capacity and underlying demand.
Preparations for the comprehensive Finnish social and health care reform (the "SOTE" reform) are ongoing. However, it is uncertain when the reform will be approved in parliament and concerning the timetable for implementation. Attendo remains optimistic about the opportunities offered by the reform for private providers. The impact of the SOTE reform will be less for social care services relative to health care services.
The Danish home care services market remains challenging. Private and public providers do not operate on a level playing field. As a result, private companies are exiting the market and citizens have less freedom of choice.
Activity in the Norwegian market remained low and no new contracts are out for tendering.
In Sweden, 290 local authorities are responsible for social care and care for older people, while 20 regional authorities (regions and county councils) provide health and dental care. Attendo's customers in Sweden are mainly local authorities responsible for social care and care for older people Local authorities, regions and county councils are also responsible for financing health and social care.
The Finnish health care system is decentralized with 311 local authorities responsible for providing primary health care, social care and care for older people, along with 20 hospital districts, each of which provide specialist care to several municipalities. Attendo's customers in Finland are mainly local authorities providing social care. As in Sweden, Finnish local authorities have far-reaching responsibility for financing welfare services.
Ektorpsgården Lidingö AB, a provider of care for older people in Lidingö, Sweden, was acquired on 1 April 2018. Vällingbygården i Stockholm AB, a provider of care for older people in Vällingby, Sweden, was acquired on 1 April 2018. Joen Hoiva Oy, a provider of care for older people in Joensuu, Finland, was acquired on 1 May 2018. Hoivakoti Majakka Oy, a provider of care for older people in Kokkola, Finland, was acquired on 1 May 2018.
Attendo has entered into a binding agreement to sell the health care operations in Finland to Terveystalo, a leading Finnish health care provider. The health care operations are part of Attendo's Finnish business and include staffing services, primary care, dental care, occupational health care and turnkey outsourcing contracts in health and social care. The business comprises about 100 operational units with about 1,600 full-time employees. Sales in 2017 were approximately EUR 230m and contributed about EUR 20m to Attendo's EBITA. The agreed consideration amounts to EUR 233m on a cash- and debt-free basis (enterprise value).
The health care operations in Finland are reported as operations for sale as of the second quarter of 2018. See Note 1. Completion of the sale is contingent upon approval by the Finnish Competition and Consumer Authority.
Attendo had transactions with two related parties, which in all material respects consist of Attendo leasing properties from companies in which these parties are shareholders. The transactions had a value of SEK 0m (5) during the year. All related-party transactions take place on market terms. For further details, please refer to page 60 of Attendo's 2017 annual report.
The board of directors appointed Martin Tivéus as the new CEO. Martin Tivéus, aged 47, joins Attendo from a role as Chief Commercial Officer at Klarna, and was previously CEO of Avanza, Evidensia Djursjukvård and Glocalnet. Martin Tivéus is also a board member of Telia Company. He studied economics at Stockholm University and the Stockholm School of Economics.
Martin Tivéus will begin his new role as the CEO of Attendo on 1 September 2018. Pertti Karjalainen will continue serving as CEO for Attendo until Martin Tivéus begins his employment.
Attendo held its Annual General Meeting (AGM) 12 April 2018 in Danderyd. In accordance with the board of directors proposal, the AGM resolved on a dividend of 1.27 SEK per share. The AGM resolved that the number of board members shall amount to six and re-elected the board Ulf Lundahl (chairman), Catarina Fagerholm, Tobias Lönnevall, Anssi Soila, Anitra Steen, and resolved to elect Alf Göransson as new board member. The board members Mona Boström and Henrik Borelius had informed that they were not available for re-election.
Further, the AGM resolved to adopt a long term incentive program (Attendo+ 2018) directed to some key employees.
The business of the parent company is to provide services to the subsidiaries and manage shares in subsidiaries. The company's expenses relate mainly to executive salaries, directors' fees and costs for external consultants.
Net sales for the period were SEK 6m (6), and were entirely related to services provided to subsidiaries. The company is reporting a loss after net financial items of SEK -13m (-14). At the end of the quarter, cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 0m (0), shares in subsidiaries to SEK 6,494m (6,494), and nonrestricted equity to SEK 6,033 (6,215).
Attendo's profitability is subject to seasonal variations, weekend and holiday effects. For Attendo, public holidays and weekends have negative effects on profitability mainly as an effect of wage compensation for inconvenient working hours. For example, profitability in the first and second quarters is affected by the Easter holiday, depending on in which quarter it occurs, and the fourth quarter is affected by Christmas and New Year holidays.
Hoivakoti Mäntytuuli Oy, a provider of care for older people in Alajärvi, Finland, was acquired on 1 July 2018.
Seniorikoti Kultaharju Oy, a provider of care for older people in Lappeenranta, Finland, was acquired on 1 July 2018.
The Finnish Competition and Consumer Authority has communicated that the review of Terveystalo's acquisition of Attendo's health care operations has moved into the second phase. A decision is expected in the second half of 2018.
Attendo conducts care and health care operations in the Nordics and are exposed to a number of different risks. Attendo divides risks in external risks, operational risks and financial risks. External risks comprise risks regarding competition, political risk, legal risk and reputational risk. Operational risks refer to risks directly linked to Attendos operations e.g. pricing and acquisitions. Financial risks are, amongst others, related to currency, interest rates and liquidity.
Risk management, i.e. the work with identifying, managing and monitoring risks is an important part of Attendo's operations and well integrated in the daily work. The risks and a description of Attendo's risk management are presented in Attendo's annual report for 2017, page 20. Attendo's assessment is that no further risks have been added.
The group applies International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's standard RFR 1 Supplementary Accounting Rules for Groups.
This interim report has been prepared according to IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and shall be read together with the annual report for 2017. The Finnish Health Care operations are reported as operations held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5, as from the second quarter 2018.
IFRS 15 came into force on January 1, 2018 and replaced IAS 18 Revenue and IAS 11 Entrepreneurship Agreements and associated SIC and IFRIC. The standard does not have any impact on the financial statements apart from increased disclosure requirements. IFRS 9 deals with the classification, valuation and reporting of financial assets and liabilities and replaces parts of IAS 39. The standard will not have any material impact on the Group's financial statements.
The interim information on page 1-15 is an integrated part of this financial report. The parent company applies the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities.
