CEO COMMENTS

CEO comments on the second quarter

Strong market climate within EVSE and continued investments for future growth.

CTEK continued to see a strong market climate in the second quarter in the Energy & Facilities and Original Equipment divisions, with higher demand than our capacity to deliver. Demand in Aftermarket, which targets end consumers, was more volatile in the quarter and impacted by the geopolitical situation. Our local presence in Asia as well as long and strong supplier and customer relationships provide stability and an incentive to continue to invest in our operations, particularly in destination chargers, which is our primary market segment in EVSE.

Financial performance

Net sales increased 6 percent to SEK 235 million in the second quarter, of which organic growth was 1 percent. EVSE sales accounted for 29 percent of the Group's sales compared with 23 percent last year. Adjusted EBITA margin declined to 9.9 percent (17.0) and was impacted by continuing disruptions to the supply chain, higher freight and component prices, investments in the organisation and a changed sales mix. Price increases were made according to plan in May to offset the cost increases in various parts of the operations. Every day we are faced with new challenges related to the supply of components, production and logistics, although we saw a positive development in the second quarter of the year.

First deliveries of Ultium Chargers

As previously communicated, the challenging external situation contributed to the delay of our deliveries of EV chargers to General Motors (GM). We completed the certification and necessary quality controls and adapted the products to full production. The first units of the base variant – the Ultium Chargers EVSE platform developed and customised together with GM – will be delivered in August. An additional product model is planned to be launched as the earliest by the end of the year.

Full production of NJORD GO

NJORD GO, a powerful and smart portable charger for EVs and hybrid vehicles that was launched last year, is now in full production. We are very pleased about the reception from the market and aim to roll out NJORD GO to more geographic markets.

Deliveries to Europe's largest EV parking garage

The first stage of a new parking garage in northern Stockholm, with more than 1,000 charging points, recently opened. This means that it is the parking garage in Europe with the highest number of charging points. All of the parking spaces will be equipped with CTEK's charging stations and Stockholm Parkering has decided to use CTEK's NANOGRID load-balancing solution to avoid overloading the grid. The City of Stockholm is seeing rapidly increasing demand for EV charging stations, and is following a plan to electrify traffic and build more than 100,000 new charging stations for electric cars by 2030 in the city. By 2026, Stockholm Parking aims to offer EV charging in all its garages.

Positioned for profitable growth

The long-term growth in our industry is mainly driven by global electrification of the vehicle fleet, which was further intensified after the recent substantial increases in fuel prices. Demand remains very high in both the home chargers volume segment and in our primary segment of destination chargers. However, the industry is relatively young and has substantial potential for development in the years ahead.

EV charging is currently hampered by both capacity and stability shortcomings in the grid. A number of solutions can relieve the electricity grid, such as optimized electric car charging via load balancing and battery storage that temporarily support the electricity grid with capacity during higher periods of consumption. We are continuing to invest in selected areas of product development using our own resources, via consultants and together with partners such as Polarium and Fuuse, to continuously strengthen our competitiveness and meet future demand. CTEK's focus on destination charging means that we must look at total solutions that include software and a number of different safety solutions, payment and features that create value for our customers.

Together with an already very competitive product portfolio and strong trends that favour both us and our industry, CTEK is well-positioned for profitable growth over time.

Jon Lind, President and CEO

The company is characterised by a strong innovation culture and works continuously to improve and develop new products to suit customer needs.

CTEK was founded in Vikmanshyttan in 1997 and has sales in more than 70 countries. With a history of innovation and technology leadership, the company meets new customer requirements by continuously developing its product offering and operations pro-actively. Based on its technology leadership, the company has established strong and long-standing customer relationships with more than 50 of the world's most prestigious automobile manufacturers. In addition to automobile manufacturers, the company also offers products to workshops, distributors, retailers, parking lots, charge point operators, property owners and consumers.

Vision

CTEK's vision is to be the leader in vehicle charging solutions.

Mission

To realise its vision, CTEK shall safe, easy-to-install and easy-to-use battery charging products for all types of vehicles, as well as complete charging solutions for electric vehicles.

Financial targets

The Board has set the following financial targets and dividend policy:

Sales growth

CTEK's target is to achieve SEK 2 billion in sales in the medium term with the majority stemming from EVSE products.

Profitability

CTEK's target is to achieve an adjusted EBITA margin of more than 25 percent in the medium term. Growth in the Energy & Facilities division may have an impact in the short term.

Capital structure

Net debt shall amount to less than 3.0x last twelve months adjusted EBITDA. Strategic decisions such as acquisitions may have a temporary impact on the company's indebtedness.

Dividend policy

CTEK invests its resources in growth and business development. In addition, CTEK aims to pay a dividend corresponding to 30 percent of net earnings for the year.

CTEK's sustainability efforts

Sustainability is a top priority for CTEK and permeates the whole business. The company has a clearly defined sustainability strategy with several tangible initiatives and targets that are monitored continuously. The sustainability strategy is based on environmental, social and corporate governance factors. The company also imposes sustainability requirements on its suppliers, for example, that key suppliers comply

img-1.jpeg

with the company's Code of Conduct. Extensive sustainability activities ensure that the company meets the increasingly strict sustainability requirements imposed by customers.

To reduce its environmental impact and contribute to a sustainable future, the company works on several well-defined and concrete initiatives. The initiatives are divided into three categories – environmental, social and corporate governance factors – which are cornerstones of the company's operations. The initiatives include a strong focus on innovative EVSE products, which supports electrification of the vehicle fleet, logistics and warehouse planning to reduce CO₂ emissions from transport, greater diversification and a higher proportion of Tier 1 suppliers that are audited from a sustainability perspective.

CTEK has established a Code of Conduct based on a set of ethical and moral business principles that has been implemented and approved by the Board. The principles guide such aspects as regulatory compliance, respect for human rights, working conditions, child labour, health and safety and the environment. We require that all suppliers sign and comply with the company's Code of Conduct, which is evaluated annually. As part of its sustainability strategy, CTEK also evaluates long- and short-term performance measures for its efforts to achieve a circular business model. These performance measures are measured on an ongoing basis and used in the internal target-setting process.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Financial performance

SECOND QUARTER

Net sales

Net sales for the quarter amounted to SEK 235 million (221), corresponding to growth of 6 percent. Organic growth was 1 percent. The volume trend for the Original Equipment and Energy & Facilities divisions remained healthy with demand that was higher than our delivery capacity. Original Equipment increased its sales by more than 28 percent in the quarter, while growth in Energy & Facilities was 20 percent. The Aftermarket division, which targets end consumers, noted more volatile demand after Russia's invasion of Ukraine and a lower share of online sales. Net sales in Aftermarket fell 7 percent. Deliveries of Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) products accounted for 29 percent (23) of sales in the second quarter.

Earnings

The gross margin declined 2.9 percent to 52.1 percent (55.0). This trend was mainly due to a changed product mix, continuing high logistics costs and a higher share of purchases outside framework agreements compared with last year.

Adjusted EBITA amounted to SEK 23 million (38), corresponding to an adjusted EBITA margin of 9.9 percent (17.0). The earnings trend was mainly due to a lower gross margin, a larger share of sales from the Energy & Facilities division and continuing investments in the organisation.

EBIT increased to SEK 16 million (14), with an EBIT margin of 6.9 percent (6.5). The second quarter of the year did not contain any items affecting comparability (-16).

Financial income and expenses

Financial items (net) amounted to SEK -1 million (-8) for the second quarter of the year. Improved financial items were due to lower interest expenses as a result of the refinancing that took place in connection with the listing in September 2021 and the positive effects of realised and unrealised currency derivatives.

Tax

Tax for the quarter amounted to SEK -4 million (-3), corresponding to an effective tax rate of 24 percent.

Consolidated profit

Consolidated profit after tax for the quarter amounted to SEK 12 million (4), corresponding to earnings per share after dilution of SEK 0.24 (0.07).

FIRST HALF OF THE YEAR

Net sales

Net sales for the first half of the year amounted to SEK 471 million (455), corresponding to growth of 4 percent. Organic growth was -1 percent. Deliveries of Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) products increased to SEK 101 million (75) and accounted for 23 percent (17) of sales in the first half-year.

Earnings

The gross margin amounted to 50.2 percent (56.1), primarily impacted by higher logistics costs, a larger share of purchases outside framework agreements as a result of a shortage of components and a changed product mix compared with last year.

Adjusted EBITA amounted to SEK 45 million (90), corresponding to an adjusted EBITA margin of 9.6 percent (19.8). The earnings trend was mainly due to a lower gross margin, a larger share of sales from the Energy & Facilities division and continuing investments in the organisation.

EBIT amounted to SEK 31 million (70), with an EBIT margin of 6.6 percent (15.5). The first half of the year did not contain any items affecting comparability (-20).

Financial income and expenses

Financial items (net) amounted to SEK -1 million (-34) for the first half of the year. Improved financial items were due to lower interest expenses as a result of the refinancing that took place in connection with the listing in September 2021 and the positive effects of realised and unrealised currency derivatives.

Tax

Tax for the period amounted to SEK -7 million (-10), corresponding to an effective tax rate of 24 percent.

Consolidated profit

Consolidated profit after tax for the period amounted to SEK 23 million (27), corresponding to earnings per share after dilution of SEK 0.46 (0.46).

CTEK

INTERIM REPORT JANUARY-JUNE 2022

CASH FLOW AND CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK -8 million (29) in the first half-year, which can largely be attributed to higher working capital requirements, due to, for example, continuing to build up inventory to ensure deliveries in the second half of the year and lower accounts payable. Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -56 million (-27). Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK 61 million (-3), which largely comprised new loans raised in connection with the utilisation of credit facilities of SEK 38 million (0) Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period amounted to SEK 53 million (96). Available credit facilities at the end of period amounted to SEK 200 million (50), and SEK 123 million (0) had been utilised.

INVESTMENTS

CTEK's investments totalled SEK -56 million (-27) for the first half-year, of which SEK -3 million (-5) referred to investments in tangible assets and SEK -53 million (-21) referred to investments in intangible assets, which can be attributed to capitalised development expenditure for future products.

EQUITY AND INDEBTEDNESS

CTEK's balance sheet total amounted to SEK 1,622 million on 30 June 2022 (1,566 on 31 December 2021). Equity increased SEK 26 million to SEK 681 million for the period (655 on 31 December 2021). Interest-bearing net debt amounted to SEK 566 million at the end of the period compared with SEK 500 million on 31 December 2021. Net debt in relation to adjusted EBITDA for the last 12 months amounted to a multiple of 4.2 compared with 2.6 on 31 December 2021, and was mainly due to the lower earnings.

SEGMENT REPORTING

Aftermarket

Net sales fell 7 percent to SEK 141 million (151) for the second quarter. Organic growth was -12 percent. Currency effects had a positive impact of 5 percentage points on net sales. The Aftermarket division noted more volatile demand among end customers after Russia's invasion of Ukraine and a lower share of online sales. Production of NJORD GO, a portable EV charger launched last year, was gradually ramped up during the quarter.

The segment result (Adjusted EBITDA) declined to SEK 51 million (55), corresponding to a margin of 35.9 percent (36.7).

Net sales declined 11 percent to SEK 292 million (328) for the first half-year. Organic growth was -15 percent. Currency effects had a positive impact of 4 percentage points on net sales.

The segment result (Adjusted EBITDA) declined to SEK 99 million (139), corresponding to a margin of 34.0 percent (42.4). The segment margin was negatively impacted by lower volumes, higher logistics costs and a higher share of purchases outside framework agreements.

Original Equipment

Net sales increased 28 percent to SEK 30 million (23) for the second quarter. Organic growth was 18 percent. Currency effects had a positive impact of 10 percentage points on net sales. The performance was due to generally higher demand, particularly in the electric vehicle segment, from a number of leading automotive manufacturers in different geographies after a weaker period due to the pandemic.

The segment result (Adjusted EBITDA) amounted to SEK 3 million (4), corresponding to a margin of 11.0 percent (15.5). The lower margin was partly due to continuing investments in marketing and sales resources.

Net sales increased 20 percent to SEK 64 million (54) for the first half of the year. Organic growth was 12 percent. Currency effects had a positive impact of 8 percentage points on net sales.

The segment result (Adjusted EBITDA) amounted to SEK 14 million (12), corresponding to a margin of 21.2 percent (23.3).

Energy & Facility

Net sales increased 20 percent to SEK 54 million (45) for the second quarter. Organic growth was 20 percent. Currency effects had a positive impact of 1 percentage points on net sales. The lower growth rate compared with last year was due to a very strong comparative quarter. Demand for EV charger systems remained very high in all of CTEK's geographic markets.

The segment result (Adjusted EBITDA) amounted to SEK -4 million (-2), corresponding to a margin of -6.7 percent (3.6). Although the higher volume had a positive impact on earnings, it was offset by increased costs for activities in new markets and product launches. Furthermore, the operations continue to have a relatively high share of fixed costs compared with current volumes.

Net sales increased 39 percent to SEK 91 million (66) for the first half of the year. Organic growth was 38 percent. Currency effects had a positive impact of 1 percentage points on net sales. The export side continued to perform positively in line with the enhanced internationalisation focus of the division.

The segment result (Adjusted EBITDA) amounted to SEK -12 million (-9), corresponding to a margin of -12.7 percent (-13.7).

Central

Net sales in Central amounted to SEK 10 million (2) for the second quarter. Adjusted for items affecting comparability, EBITDA of SEK -35 million (-21) was reported for the first half of the year and was due to a temporarily high level of component sales to the company's suppliers.

Notes

NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This report for the Group was prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 1 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, and for the Parent Company was prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 2 and the Annual Accounts Act. The accounting policies applied correspond to those stipulated in the 2021 Annual Report (Note 1).

NOTE 2 - ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

Preparing the interim report requires management to make judgements and estimates, and to make assumptions that impact the application of the accounting policies and the recognised amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The actual outcome may deviate from these estimates and judgements. The critical judgements and sources of uncertainty in the estimates are the same as those presented in the most recent annual report.
