COMMENTS FROM THE CEO

2

During 2019 C-RAD continued to strengthen its position in the market. We still see and expect the market to grow and it is clear thar our technology and solutions start to become standard of care. New partnerships at the beginning of the year as well as the extension of our strategic partnership with Elekta were two important milestones that will give us further growth opportunities in the coming years.

The full year of 2019 started somewhat slow in the first half year on order intake but picked up the last six months. Q3 and Q4 grew with 9 percent and 16 percent respectively. C-Rad has seen 14 consecutive quarters of increased order intake, if we exclude Q1 2019. This led to a record high order backlog of 267.1 MSEK at year end.

In 2019 there were fewer large projects than in the previous year, but we succeeded to win two projects in Belgium with in total 26 MSEK for Sentinel 4DCT and Catalyst HD and a multi-year service contract. This was a great success for C-RAD. Orders of this magnitude have a significant impact on the order intake in one quarter and affect the volatility that we see in order intake but also in revenue.

Sales of our service and positioning products grew to 25.3 MSEK (15,7) and 59.4 MSEK (50,0) respectively – a very healthy development. The rapid adoption of our service contracts shows the confidence our customers have in

"The rapid adoption of our service contracts shows the confidence our customers have in C-RAD as a partner and is a very good foundation for recurring revenues moving forward."

C-RAD as a partner and is a very good foundation for recurring revenues moving forward. After the wait-and-see momentum as a consequence of acquisitions and newly formed alliances between market players, that we noticed earlier this year, customers have started purchasing our technology again and order intake is picking up. On the full year we succeeded to grow order intake with 9 percent for the Group.

However, in the fourth quarter we saw a mixed picture in the Group. Strong order intake in especially Americas and EMEA supported a 16 percent growth. Consolidated revenues weakened by 12 percent due to a decline of 34 percent in EMEA. The drop in EMEA was explained by lower order intake in the first half year and that the book and bill period has increased from 6 to 8 month.

"For the full year 2019 revenue for the group increased with 8 percent, gross margin improved from 58 percent to 59 percent and EBITDA adj for IFRS 16 increased with 18 percent to 8.7 MSEK."

Gross margin in the fourth quarter remained at 60 percent but given the lower revenue EBITDA adjusted for IFRS 16 was only 0.5 MSEK which was considerably lower than last year. For the full year 2019 revenue for the group increased with 8 percent, gross margin improved from 58 percent to 59 percent and EBITDA adj for IFRS 16 increased with 18 percent to 8.7 MSEK. This is the second consecutive year with an underlying positive EBITDA result.

The GEMini project is not making progress at the speed we expected and timing to release a product and scale up sales is uncertain. At the same time, we see a huge opportunity for our positioning products. Therefore, we decided to write down the activated development efforts related to GEMini and for now focus our organization on the positioning products. The customer project in China is ongoing and we continue to support the efforts. The total amount of the write off is 11.6 MSEK for capitalized development and stock, and is booked in the 4th quarter 2019.

NEW PRODUCTS

C-RAD has been developing a new hard and software platform for the treatment room that is going to be launched under the name Catalyst+™. Catalyst+ offers higher application versatility and significantly higher performance to our customers. It is expected that the new platform will give a noticeable reduction on the production cost. Depending on us receiving regulatory clearance the product will be released to the market in spring 2020. Also, we are in the last steps to release the cAccessory module as an upgrade opportunity to our installed base, but for new customers. With this in place the C-RAD solution validates the patient prior to treatment, the correct setup and an accurate position prior and during treatment. This is a big step forward and provides a comprehensive solution to our customers.

ORGANIZATION

To fully capitalize on the opportunities in North America C-RAD announced the recruitment of Brian Loar for the role President C-RAD North America. Brian is in charge of our business through our direct sales organization and newly established partnership with Elekta. Brian has a more than 20 years of experience within the radiation therapy business in North America. He is joining C-RAD from a position as Vice President Sales, North America at Varian Medical Systems.

"To fully capitalize on the opportunities in North America C-RAD announced the recruitment of Brian Loar for the role President C-RAD North America."

We remain confident about our market opportunity and are convinced that C-RAD is in a good position to outgrow the market. We have a fantastic team, excited customers and great products that allow us to enable our customers to implement high precision radiation therapy to the benefit of their patients.

Tim Thurn,CEO

FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT, GROUP

ORDER INTAKE

Order intake during the fourth quarter increased by 16 percent to 88.1 (75.6) MSEK compared to the same period in 2018. This increase is primarily attributable to sales in the US and in the EMEA-region. Sales of positioning products increased again by 19 percent during the quarter, while sales of service contracts (Life Cycle Business) increased by 61 percent. Sales of HIT-lasers decreased by 53 percent. In line with the cancelled distribution contract with IBA that was effective as of October 1st, also order intake for distribution products decreased during the quarter. The long-term interest and demand for our positioning products in the marketplace continues to grow, but order intake volume may fluctuate between the quarters.

The order backlog amounted to record high 267.1 (194.0) MSEK on the balance sheet day, indicating the future revenue. Revenue from service contracts which guarantees a stable revenue over a longer period of time, amounted to 122.7 MSEK.

Order intake during January – December increased by 9 percent and amounted to 269.8 MSEK compared to 246.8 MSEK during 2018. Our North American activities continue to develop well and more than doubled the order intake compared to last year, while order intake in the EMEA- and APAC regions were relatively unchanged compared to previous year.

During the quarter, the company received an order of approximately 26 MSEK for C-RADs surface tracking solution based on Catalyst HD™ and Sentinel 4DCT™ from Belgian customers.

REVENUES

Revenues amounted to 51.0 (57.7) MSEK in the quarter, corresponding to a decrease of 12 percent. Revenues from the Americas increased by 154 percent, APAC-region increased by 8 percent while revenues for EMEA-region decreased by 34 percent.

Revenues during the full year 2019 increased by 8 percent and amounted to 205.4 (190.1) MSEK.

SEASONALITY

There is a seasonal pattern in C-RAD's operations. The second half of the year and the fourth quarter in particular are usually the strongest periods, both in terms of order intake and revenues. This is due to the fact that a large number of customers are hospitals and clinics, which have annual budgets aligned to the calendar year. As the larger part of C-RAD's cost base is fixed, fluctuations in revenue have a direct impact on the quarterly operating profit. Volatility in order intake between quarters and markets is to be expected in our business.

ORDER BACKLOG AND ORDER CONVERSION RATE

The order backlog represents orders that have been received but not delivered and invoiced. The backlog amounted to 267.1 MSEK at the end of the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to 194.0 MSEK in 2018, an increase of 38 percent. From the total order backlog, 144.4 (120.2) MSEK relates to products and 122.7 (73.8) MSEK refer to Life Cycle Business (service contracts).

The weighted average delivery time for products recognized as revenue in the fourth quarter was just above five months (four months in the same quarter 2018). This is the time from receiving an order until the order is delivered and revenue recognized, based on deliveries of C-RADs own products. For the full year 2019, the average delivery time was seven months (five months during 2018).

19.4 MSEK of the order backlog for Life Cycle Business will be recognized as revenue within 12 months, as service contracts are recognized as revenue over the contract period. This can be compared to revenues of 17.3 MSEK for the last 12 months. The service contract can be up to eight years while the average duration is around five years.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit margin was 60 percent during the fourth quarter 2019, unchanged compared to the same period 2018. Fluctuations in gross profit can be expected in shorter periods as it is dependent on the product mix and market as well as the exchange rate fluctuations.

Gross profit margin for the period January–December amounted to 59 percent compared to 58 percent during 2018.

OPERATIONAL EXPENSES

Operational expenses for the fourth quarter amounted to 14.0 (12.5) MSEK. The increase is mainly related to the development projects that are being activated.

The implementation of IFRS 16, Leasing, by January 1st, means that approximately 0.7 MSEK related to office and car lease contracts were accounted for as amortization and interest on the amortizations instead of as previously Operational expenses in the quarter.

For the full year 2019, operational expenses amounted to 52.6 (45.6) MSEK, and the amount recognized as amortization instead of operational expenses amounted to 2.5 MSEK.

PERSONNEL EXPENSES

Personnel expenses for the fourth quarter 2019 amounted to 16.9 (16.3) MSEK. The increase compared to last year is mainly related to more employees within research and development and related activities, as was planned going into this year. Personnel expenses for the full year amounted to 63.9 (59.3) MSEK.

The average number of employees amounted to 59 during the fourth quarter 2019 compared to 54 during the corresponding period in 2018. At the end of December 2019, the number of employees in the Group amounted to 59 (52).

OTHER OPERATING INCOME/EXPENSES

Exchange rates on the balance sheet day decreased for both EUR and USD from October 31, 2019 to December 31, 2019. As the group has exposure to these currencies in receivables, that also are being revaluated on balances sheet day, this resulted in exchange rate differences of -1.3 MSEK during the quarter, out of which -0.6 is not yet realized. For the full year, total exchange rate differences amounted to -0.8 MSEK, out of which -0.6 is not yet realized.

CAPITALIZED DEVELOPMENT COSTS

Capitalizations during the fourth quarter of 2019 of 3.0 (0.8) MSEK are related to continued development of the Positioning products. Amortization of capitalized development expenditures amounted to 1.4 (1.5) MSEK during the quarter. For the full year, 6.7 (3.4) MSEK have been capitalized and 5.3 (3.9) MSEK has been amortized.

Total capitalized development costs amounted to 13.3 (22.7) MSEK at the end of December.

GEMini

The GEMini project is not making progress at the speed we expected and timing to release a product and scale up sales is uncertain. At the same time, we see a huge opportunity for our positioning products. Therefore, we decided to write down the activated development efforts related to GEMini and for now focus our organization on the positioning products. The customer project in China is ongoing and we continue to support the efforts. The total amount of the write off is 11.6 MSEK and is booked in the 4th quarter 2019.

NET FINANCIAL INCOME

Net financial income for the quarter amounted to -0.5 (0) MSEK and -1.7 (-0.5) MSEK for the full year.

NET RESULT AFTER TAX

Net results after tax in the quarter amounted to -12.5 (24.3) MSEK, corresponding to -0.40 (0.79) SEK per share. For January-December, net result after tax amounted to -13.8 (21.2), corresponding to -0.45 (-0.69) SEK per share. Tax expense refer to reverse deferred tax asset and deferred tax asset for the Swedish entities and does not affect cash flow.

FINANCING AND CASH FLOW

Cash flow during the fourth quarter amounted to -0.1 (1.4) MSEK. Operating cash flow was 8.6 (-2.6) MSEK. Cash flow from financing activities amounted to -5.7 MSEK in line with decreased usage of the invoice discounting solution of 5.2 MSEK to 14.7 MSEK during the quarter.

By December 31, C-RADs total available funds amounted to 36.8 (21.4) MSEK, out of which cash balance amounted to 29.5 (9.3) MSEK and unutilized credit facilities amounted to 7.3 (12.1) MSEK. Utilized credit facilities for invoice discounting solution as of balance sheet day amounted to 14.7 (19.9) MSEK.

DISPUTES

The Stockholm Patent and Market court confirmed C-RAD's entitlement to the patent application "Ionizing radiation detecting device" in its verdict published on July 26th. C-RAD filed a patent entitlement lawsuit in May 2017 against the company Beamocular AB. Beamocular has appealed the verdict.

C-RAD Imaging AB, a subsidiary of the C-RAD group, has had a dispute since December 2017 with a former employee, who has also been CEO of the same subsidiary. The dispute is about the question if C-RAD trade secrets have been revealed in connection with the employment of the employee being ended. The verdict from Uppsala District Court in June ruled in favor of the defendant and informed C-RAD to reimburse the other party for legal fees incurred, amounting to 1.7 MSEK. C-RAD has appealed the verdict and received approval to appeal.

All expenses for the disputes are recognized as cost when they arise.

NOTES

Note 1. Accounting principles

This interim report is prepared, for the Group, in accordance with IAS 34, RFR1 "Redovisning för koncerner" and the Annual Accounts Act and, for the Parent company, the Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2. The Group is applying IFRS 16 Leasing as of January 1, 2019, which is described here below. The applied accounting principles are in all other aspects consistent with what is stated in note 1 in the Financial Statements for 2018.

New standards as of January 1st, 2019

The Group is applying IFRS 16 Leasing as of January 1st, 2019.

IFRS 16 Leasing replaces IAS 17 Leases, IFRIC 4 Determining Whether an Arrangement Contains a Lease and related rules. Under the new standard, the lessee is required to recognise all contracts that meet the definition of a lease (except leases of 12 months or less and leases of low‐value assets) as a right‐of‐use asset and liability in the statement of financial position. Leases that currently comprise operating leases will subsequently be recognised in the balance sheet, which entails that the current operating expense, corresponding to the leasing charges for the period, will be replaced by amortisation and interest expense in the income statement. C‐RAD is applying the simplified transition method and will not recalculate the comparable figures. The main effect on C‐RADs financial statements refer to the accounting of rental contracts and leasing contracts for cars. The effect on the starting balance as per January 1st, 2019, was that a right‐of‐use asset and corresponding liability of approximately 3,4 Mkr was booked. EBITDA for 2019 is expected to be approximately 2 MSEK better than what would have been the case with the previous standard. Other effects will be that the cash flow from leasing contracts will be moved from cash flow from operating activites to cash flow from financing activities (depreciation and interest paid).

Other updated IFRS standards and interpretations from IFRIC have no impact on the Group or the Parent Company's results or financial position.

Note 2. Exchange rates

The financial statements are presented in SEK, the functional currency of C‐RAD. Sales and orders are largely generated in foreign currency, mainly EUR and USD and, in addition, foreign subsidiaries and associates are included in the consolidation. Orders, order back‐log and income statement are translated at the period‐average exchange rate while balance sheet items are translated at the closing rate. The average EUR rate during the fourth quarter of 2019 was 10.6 (10.3), while the average USD rate in the period was 9.5 (8.7). Closing rate for EUR was 10.4 (10.3) och USD 9.3 (9.0).

Note 3. Related party transactions

There were no transactions with closely related parties during the fourth quarter of 2019.

Note 4. Capitalized development costs

Development expenses that fulfil the recognition criteria in IAS38 are capitalized. Impairment test are performed quarterly. The progress of current development projects is reviewed on a regular basis.

Note 5. Deferred tax

Deferred tax assets are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted in line with the probable future taxable result.

Note 6. Contingent liabilities

Contingent liability of SEK 2 000 000 in the Parent company refer to guarantee committment for subsidiary.

Note 7. Pledges

The pledges refer to to a chattle mortgage for the Companys credit line with Nordea and Erik Penser Bank AB (security of 19.970.000 SEK).

Note 8. DEFINITIONS

C‐RAD AB is applying certain financial measurementsin the interim report that is not defined in IFRS. It is C‐RAD's opinion that these measurements give valuable information to investors and company management as they give a view of the Company's performance. These measurementshall not be considered a replacement for any financial measurement as defined by IFRS. As of the January 2019, the interim reports have been extended with one new financial measurement, EBITDA, which is calculated as per below.

EBITDA: operating profit before depreciation and amortization.

Comparison against IFRS

EBITDA excl IFRS 16‐adjustment ‐ Operating profit before amortization and deprecation, adjusted for effect from IFRS 16 Leasing to provide a figure comparative to previous year's EBITDA.

MSEK Q4 Q4 Full Year Full Year
