COMMENTS FROM THE CEO

Net sales increased to MSEK 75 and beat forecasted range

CTT delivered 11% quarter-to-quarter net sales growth, driven by OEMsales with its best quarter since 2020, due to significantly increased deliveries to Boeing. Afternarket demand was highed and unchanged compared to previous quarter, as we managed to fully compensate the predicted decrease in sales with a high inventory level at distributors. The aftermarket sales decrease to MSER 52 (from 54 in Q) was currency related. The weak operating cash flow of MSEK -4 can be derived to MSEK 22 that was settled first days of April instead of March. In the quarter, profit was charged by non-recurring items of these items, operating cash flow would have been MSEK 18, EBIT MSEK 26 and EBIT-margin 34%.

Net sales forecast: MSEK 75 - 80

The net sales Q2 forecast is MSEK 75 - 80. The increase compared to Q1 is expected to be driven by higher aftermarket revenue and partly offset by a decrease in OEM.

System sales will increase significantly in 2023

The outlook for our system business is strong. Demand for our owing, driven by widebody aircraft production ramp-up, commencing in 2023. This will generate higher OEM sales this year and continue to increase in upcoming years. The positive momentum in Retrofit continued in the first quarter, particularly for the Anti-Condensation system with several outstanding RFGs for fleet installation and trials, but decision lead to predict. Finally, we continue to have good traction in the Private jet business with several expected orders in the second half of 2023. When summarizing, I am confident that we now are ikely to commence a period of years where system sales will grow year-on-year.

Aftermarket will continue to grow with normalized drivers

The underlying aftermarket demand is growing as expected. Increased sales of aftermarket parts to airlines in Asia, particularly in China. Our sales are overtine demand but can short-term fluctuate depending on distributors inventory levels. Going forward, aftermarket growth will (again) be more predictable and track changes in population size (read: widebody fleet utilization normalized and flight hours per airratt maximized). The population growth driveries and when readybuilt Boeing 787s enter-into-service (with CTT products already on board representing approx. 10% population growth to CTT).

Strong outlook for 2023 with higher net sales and with favorable conditions to win some major awards

When summarizing, I am optimistic about the outlook for 2023. We will increase sales and further improve our position in the market. More importantly, we have a compelling offering and a favorable market sentiment in aviation that should enable us to capture some of our strategic growth opportunities.

EVENTS AFTER THE END OF THE REPORTING PERIOD

NET SALES

Net sales increased by 53% in first quarter to MSEK 75.0 (49.2).

Q123

The breakdown of net sales for the quarters is presented above.

FINANCIAL RESULTS

The operating profit (EBIT) in the first quarter increased to MSEK 22.6 (14.0), corresponding to a margin of 30% (29). The increase in earnings compared to the first quarter last year is mainly a consequence of increased volume in aftermarket sales, as well as currency effects from a stronger USD/SEK exchange rate. The outcome for the quarter has a lower aftermarket share (69% versus 75%) in the revenue mix, corresponding to MSEK -6.6 compared to the first quarter of 2022. The quarter was affected by non-recurring costs of MSEK 2.9 (0.4), mainly related to inventory write-downs. Net financial items were positively impacted by MSEK 0.7 (-1.8) by currency effects from loans denominated in USD. The higher result leads to a larger provision of variable remuneration to the staff of MSEK 2.5 (1.6), which mainly explains the increase in other costs. The profit margin increased to 30% (24). Net income was MSEK 18.0 (9.6) and earnings per share increased to SEK 1.43 (0.76).

The earnings trend since Q4 2021 is presented to the left, where the green line shows the EBIT margin adjusted for currency effects directly linked to accounts receivable and accounts payable valuation.

Average USD / SEK exchange rate according to Riksbanken

FORECAST - SECOND QUARTER 2023

The net sales forecast for the second quarter of 2023 is MSEK 75 -80 (58.4).

FIRST QUARTER 2023 FORECAST AND ACTUAL OUTCOME

In the fourth quarter report (2022), CTT made the following forecast for the first quarter of 2023: "The net sales forecast for the first quarter of 2023 is MSEK 68 - 73 (49.2)."

The actual net sales amounted to MSEK 75.0.

ORDER INTAKE AND ORDER BACKLOG

During the first quarter, the Company's order intake amounted to MSEK 74 (63). The stronger order intake is mainly due to the recovery and growth in the aftermarket as well as a stronger USD/SEK exchange rate. OEM order intake continued to be weak due to Boeing temporarily having a lower production rate in the 787 program, but which will gradually increase during the year.

As of 31 March 2023, the order book totaled MSEK 71 (76), based on USD exchange rate of 10.35 (9.38).

CASH FLOW AND FINANCIAL POSITION

Cash flow before changes in working capital amounted to MSEK 13.9 (13.3) in the first quarter, driven by better EBITDA (MSEK 25.6 compared to 16.1), but offset by a larger tax payment of MSEK 11.9 (2.8) mainly due to extra paid tax regarding 2022. The cash flow from operating activities decreased to MSEK -3.8 (8.6). Changes in working capital was in total MSEK -17.7 (-4.7), where the inventory decreased by MSEK 3.1, but mainly offset by increased account receivables, due to late customer payments. MSEK 22 was received in the beginning of April and the remaining MSEK 21 is expected in May. Net cash flow in the reporting period was MSEK 6.2 (-25.5). Amortization of an USD credit facility of MSEK 32 was made in the first quarter of 2022. The change in the quarter is described in the graph to the right.

Cash flow bridge Q4 2022 to Q1 2023 (MSEK)

See Cash flow analysis on page 12

Overall, CTT has a strong financial position, with its equity ratio at 31% (71). Cash and cash equivalents amounted to MSEK 54 (24), and in addition CTT has available credit facilities of 31 March 2023 amounted to MSEK -10 (18), and equity to MSEK 287 (222).

INVESTMENTS

Investments in the first quarter amounted to MSE 2.0 (1.8), related to ongoing development projects, many in the final stage which explains the relative low investment level.

PERSONNEL

The average number of employees during the first quarter was 75 (75).

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

CTT is exposed to several risks that could significantly impact the Company's operations, earnings and financial position. The Company's risks are divided into strategic, operational and financial risks. One of these risks is currency. CTT is extremely dependent on the exchange rate of USD to SEK, as most of its revenues are in USD (as business in the aviation industry is priced in USD). CTT has a large proportion of costs in non-USD currencies, mainly SEK. A weakening in USDSEK-rate has an adverse effect on earnings. For a more detailed description of this particular risk and Risk and Risk Management section on pages 62 - 66 of the Company's Annual Report 2022. No significant changes in material risks or uncertainties have arisen during the period. The high inflation and interest rate environment have had no material impact during the period.
