President and CEO Yannick Fierling's comment

Market outperformance in North America, amid uncertain market conditions

Organic sales growth was slightly positive in the quarter at 1.8%, driven by North America and Latin America. Business area Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa reported a slight organic sales decline, with a negative price development. In Europe, our main brands continued to outperform the market, whereas the general market demand declined somewhat with increased competitive pressure, and replacement driven demand. In North America, market demand declined slightly in the quarter, and we continued to outperform the market. In both Europe and North America, consumers continue to shift to lower price points and demand was impacted by uncertainty due to ongoing geopolitical developments. In Latin America, consumer demand increased slightly. As anticipated, in Brazil, growth was hampered by inflationary pressure and increased interest rates. Business area Latin America reported slight organic sales growth.

Improved operating earnings with positive contribution from North America

Operating margin improved, with a positive contribution from North America where list price increases offset increased costs related to U.S. tariffs introduced in the quarter. The competitive pressure and promotional activity were high in the quarter. Latin America continued to deliver an operating margin above our Group mid-term target of 6%. In Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa, the underlying operating income was lower mainly due to a negative price development. Operating cash flow was negative, impacted by a seasonal increase in working capital, a negative impact related to U.S. tariffs and a payment of the earlier announced French antitrust fine.

Our market and business outlook for the year remains unchanged, and we reiterate our aim to offset tariff-related cost increases in North America through price increases.

Looking ahead, consumer centricity and transformation in focus

In the quarter, we executed well on our long-term strategic priorities. We continued our journey to strengthen our brands, with new marketing campaigns to support recently launched innovations. In the U.S. we are currently launching new Frigidaire ovens with stone-baked pizza mode. North America has been a focus point for improvements, and in the second quarter, the business area reported a positive operating income. We continued to make good progress on cost-efficiency measures, delivering cost savings from procurement as well as product engineering. Maintaining a consumer-centric approach, as well as increasing speed and agility, are key components of our strategy. In the coming quarters, we will increase our focus on the major transformation areas and to drive speed and agility.

The second quarter results demonstrate our commitment to deliver on our strategic priorities amid challenging market conditions.

"In a challenging market environment, we achieved organic growth and improved operating margin, with good execution on strategic priorities."

Net sales

The organic sales growth in the second quarter was driven by positive development in North America and Latin America. For the Group, price had a positive impact. In North America, price development was positive due to list price increases to compensate for tariff related cost increases. In Latin America, previously implemented price increases to compensate for currency driven cost inflation had a positive impact. Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa reported a slight organic sales decline, with a negative price development. Group volumes had a slightly positive impact on sales, supported by good momentum from products recently launched.

Operating income

Operating income improved, mainly driven by an improved result in North America. The positive earnings impact from cost efficiency for the Group was SEK 0.6bn year-over-year. The organic sales contribution to operating income was slightly positive, mainly driven by price increases to compensate for the tariff-related cost increases in business area North America and currency headwinds mainly in business area Latin America. In addition to these external factors, labor cost inflation had a negative impact partly offset by positive raw material costs. Operating income for the Group and business area Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa included a positive effect of SEK 180m from the divestment of the Kelvinator trademark portfolio in India.

Financial net

Net financial items amounted to SEK -436m (-531). The change was mainly a result of lower interest rates.

Taxes

Income taxes for the second quarter were SEK -184m (32) with an effective tax rate of 51% (n.a.).

Income for the period

Income for the period amounted to SEK 178m (-80), corresponding to SEK 0.66 (-0.30) in earnings per share.

First half of 2025

Organic sales grew by 4.7%. Volumes increased, with a positive mix contribution despite challenging conditions in the main markets. Price was slightly positive.

Operating income amounted to SEK 1,250m (-301), corresponding to a margin of 2.0% (-0.5). The improvement in earnings was primarily driven by cost reductions. Cost efficiency contributed with approximately SEK 2bn to operating income. The impact from External factors was negative, and Investments in innovation and marketing increased. The divestment of the Kelvinator trademark portfolio in India had a positive effect of SEK 180m.

Net financial items amounted to SEK -818m (-1,090), with the main reason for the year-over-year difference being that the previous year was negatively impacted by the devaluation of the Egyptian pound.

Income for the period amounted to SEK 220m (-1,309), corresponding to SEK 0.81 (-4.85) in earnings per share.

Market overview

In the second quarter, overall market demand in Europe and North America declined slightly, year-over-year. In Europe, consumers shifted to lower price points driven by geopolitical and economic uncertainty. In the US, inflation concerns related to tariffs, weighed on consumer confidence.

Business areas

Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa

  • Slightly weaker market in Europe, with increased competitive pressure
  • Electrolux and AEG continued to outperform the market
  • Earnings impacted by negative price development

During the quarter, market demand in Europe declined by about 1% year-over-year with Western Europe down 1% and Eastern Europe largely unchanged. Compared to 2019, demand in Europe was 11% lower year to date. In Asia-Pacific, consumer demand is estimated to have increased year-over-year. In Europe consumer confidence remained negatively affected by geopolitical uncertainty. This, together with competitive pressure, continued to result in consumers shifting to lower price points and postponing discretionary purchases. Demand for built-in kitchen products in Europe remained subdued.

AEG and Electrolux brands outperformed the market

The business area reported a slight organic sales decline. The predominantly replacement driven demand contributed to a higher share of sales sold during promotions and a negative price development year-over-year. In the quarter, the phase-out of the brand Zanussi continued. The roll-out of newly launched AEG and Electrolux built-in kitchen products continued, contributing to market outperformance in Europe.

Positive earnings effect from cost savings and divestment

Operating profit increased to SEK 383m (235), including a positive contribution of SEK 180m from the divestment of the Kelvinator trademark portfolio in India. The underlying earnings decline was mainly due to the negative price development, partly offset by the positive impact from volume increase. Cost savings had a positive contribution to cost efficiency. Investments increased in innovation and marketing to support the strong product portfolio and the ongoing roll-out of newly launched product ranges. Labor cost inflation had a slight negative impact on earnings, offset by lower raw material costs.

North America

  • Electrolux Group outperformed the market
  • Organic growth driven by price and higher sales volumes
  • Positive operating income

During the quarter, market demand for core appliances in terms of units declined by 1% year-over-year, with a high promotional activity in the market. While consumer demand remained relatively resilient, consumers continued to prefer lower price points. Economic uncertainty and inflation concerns related to tariffs weighed on consumer confidence.

Positive price development offset tariff related costs The business area reported an organic sales growth with higher volumes. Outperforming the market, growth was supported by good momentum from sale of new products. Price was positive due to list price increases to compensate for tariff related cost increases. Continued promotional intensity contributed to a high competitive pressure, reducing the positive net effect of price.

Earnings improvement mainly driven by cost efficiency The business area reported an operating profit in the second quarter. The year-over-year earnings improvement was mainly driven by cost savings and efficiency improvements. Costs for innovation and marketing were temporarily slightly lower in the quarter. Higher organic sales contributed positively to earnings. List price increases offset the tariff related cost increases, which were the main driver of negative external factors. Currency headwinds and labor cost inflation had a negative effect on earnings, partly offset by a positive impact from lower raw material costs.

Latin America

  • Consumer demand growth lower than in previous quarters
  • Organic sales growth impacted by lower volumes in Brazil
  • EBIT margin 6.5% despite significant currency headwinds

During the second quarter, consumer demand in the region is estimated to have increased, but as anticipated at a lower growth rate compared to previous quarters. This is mainly due to inflationary pressure and higher interest rates affecting consumer spending in Brazil. In Brazil, higher interest rates also contributed to retailers' inventory reductions in the quarter. This had a negative effect on market demand. In Argentina, the demand improved strongly compared to the second quarter last year.

Slight organic sales growth

The business area reported slight organic sales growth, mainly driven by positive contribution from product mix as well as previously implemented price increases to compensate for currency-driven cost inflation. Volumes were slightly lower in the quarter, on the back of a strong second quarter in 2024. Also, retailers' inventory reductions contributed to the lower growth in the quarter. Electrolux Group continued to outperform the market. In Argentina, volume growth was driven by improved market conditions and consumer spending. Product mix improved supported by growth in cooking products and multi-door refrigeration.

Significant impact from currency headwinds

Operating income decreased year-over-year with positive contribution from price, offset by a significantly adverse currency effect, mainly from the weakening of the Brazilian Real. Cost efficiency contributed positively to earnings. Investments increased in sales support for brand building activities and direct to consumer capabilities.

Cash flow

  • Negative development of working capital in the second quarter
  • Increased contribution from operating income
  • Lower investments

Operating cash flow after investments

In the second quarter, operating cash flow after investments was negative despite that operating income increased, and investments were lower than last year. This was offset by a negative effect from operating assets and liabilities. The change in operating assets and liabilities was negatively impacted by the payment of the previously communicated French antitrust fine, and an increase in working capital. Working capital was partly negatively impacted by an increase related to U.S. tariffs. Besides these effects, inventory increased in the quarter, both related to seasonal build-up but also due to weaker consumer demand, and the rapidly changing market environment.

Working capital

Working capital as of June 30, 2025, amounted to SEK -10,176m (-15,865), corresponding to -8.3% (-12.4) of annualized net sales.

Operating working capital amounted to SEK 7,623m (6,495), corresponding to 6.2% (5.1) of annualized net sales, see page 22.

The financial net debt increase was mainly driven by negative cash flow during the quarter.

Net provisions for post-employment benefits amounted to a surplus of SEK 385m and lease liabilities amounted to SEK 4,082m as of June 30, 2025. In total, net debt amounted to SEK 32,539m, an increase of SEK 4,686m compared to December 31, 2024 and an increase of SEK 1,697m compared to March 31, 2025 and SEK 2,798m compared to June 30, 2024.

Long-term borrowings and long-term borrowings with maturities within 12 months, amounted to a total of SEK 35,681m as of June 30, 2025, with an average maturity of 3.0 years, compared to SEK 36,601m and 3.3 years at the end of 2024 and SEK 36,464m and 3.2 years at the end of March 2025.

In the second quarter, amortization of long-term borrowings amounted to SEK 811m and no new long-term debt was issued.

Total liquidity, including the revolving credit facilities, amounted to SEK 28,120m compared to SEK 34,079m as of December 31, 2024. The decrease in total liquidity was mainly driven by negative development in both operating working capital and other working capital. In June, one of the SEK 3,000m revolving credit facilities was extended to 2027.

Net debt/EBITDA was 3.5 (5.2) and return on equity was 5.1% (-24.2).

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of AB Electrolux (publ) as of June 30, 2025 and the six-month period then ended. The board of directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Group, and with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Parent Company.

Notes

Note 1 Accounting principles

Electrolux applies International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. This report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 'Accounting for legal entities' issued by the Swedish Corporate Reporting Board.

Electrolux interim reports contain a condensed set of financial statements. For the Group this chiefly means that the disclosures are limited compared to the consolidated financial statements presented in the annual report. For the Parent Company this means that the financial statements in general are presented in condensed versions and with limited disclosures compared to the annual report.

The accounting policies applied are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the Group's Annual Report 2024, except for the adoption of standard amendments effective as of January 1, 2025. These changes have not had any material impact on the financial statements. See section 'New or amended accounting standards to be applied after 2024' in the Annual Report 2024 for more information on the standard amendments.

Note 2 Disaggregation of revenue

Electrolux manufactures and sells appliances mainly in the wholesale market to customers being retailers. Electrolux products include refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, washing machines, dryers, cookers, microwave ovens, vacuum cleaners, air conditioners and small domestic appliances. Electrolux has three regional business areas with focus on the consumer market.

Sales of products are revenue recognized at a point in time when control of the products has transferred. Revenue from services related to installation of products, repairs or maintenance service is recognized when control is transferred being over the time the service is provided. Sales of services are not material in relation to Electrolux total net sales.

Geography and product category are considered important attributes when disaggregating Electrolux revenue. The three business areas, also being the Group's segments, are based on geography: Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa; North America and Latin America. For business area information, see pages 5-7. In addition, the table below presents net sales by product area Taste (cooking, refrigeration and freezer appliances), Care (dish and laundry appliances) and Wellbeing (e.g., air conditioners, cleaning appliances and small domestic appliances). Products within all product areas are sold in each of the reportable segments, i.e., the business areas, as presented in the graph below.

Electrolux strives for arranging master netting agreements (ISDA) with the counterparts for derivative transactions and has established such agreements with the majority of the counterparties, i.e., if a counterparty will default, assets and liabilities will be netted. Derivatives are presented gross in the balance sheet.

Fair value estimation

Valuation of financial instruments at fair value is done at the most accurate market prices available. Instruments which are quoted on the market, e.g., the major bond and interest-rate future markets, are all marked-to-market with the current price. The foreign-exchange spot rate is used to convert the value into SEK. For instruments where no reliable price is available on the market, cash flows are discounted using the deposit/swap curve of the cash flow currency. If no proper cash flow schedule is available, e.g., as in the case with forward-rate agreements, the underlying schedule is used for valuation purposes.

To the extent option instruments are used, the valuation is based on the Black & Scholes' formula. The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate for similar financial instruments. The Group's financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value according to the following hierarchy:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. On June 30, 2025 the fair value for Level 1 financial assets was SEK 163m (167) and for financial liabilities SEK 0m (0).

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for assets or liabilities either directly or indirectly. On June 30, 2025 the fair value of Level 2 financial assets was SEK 301m (362) and financial liabilities SEK 404m (296).

Level 3: Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not entirely based on observable market data. On June 30, 2025 the fair value of Level 3 financial assets was SEK 69m (262) and financial liabilities SEK 0m (0).

Note 5 Acquisitions and divestments

There were no acquisitions or divestments completed during the first half year of 2025. The divestment of the water heater business in South Africa was completed in December 2024, with a final adjustment in June 2025.

Divestment of the South African water heater business

Electrolux Group announced on July 18, 2024, that an agreement had been signed to divest the water heater business (Kwikot brand) in South Africa. The divestment was completed on December 2, 2024, following regulatory approvals.

Net sales in 2023 related to the water heater business amounted to approximately ZAR 1.9bn (approx. SEK 1.1bn). Divested total assets amount to SEK 1.9bn, divested net assets amount to SEK 1.1bn. Proceeds received amounted to SEK 1.1bn and the net cash flow effect from the divestment amounts to approximately SEK 1.0bn. The divestment had a total impact on the full-year 2024 result of SEK -566m, including an impairment of goodwill of SEK -368m which was affecting the result in the third quarter 2024. The negative earnings effect of SEK -198m in the fourth quarter 2024 included SEK -132m from the reclassification of accumulated negative currency effect in equity. The reclassification did not affect total equity. The divestment effect in 2024 was treated as a non-recurring item for business area Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa. A final adjustment was made in June 2025 with a cash flow impact of SEK -6m.

Definitions and reconciliations of alternative performance measures

_____________________________________________________________________

This report includes financial measures as required by the financial reporting framework applicable to Electrolux, which is based on IFRS. In addition, Electrolux presents certain measures that are not defined under IFRS (alternative performance measures – "APMs"). These are used by management to assess the financial and operational performance of the Group. Management believes that these APMs provide useful information regarding the Group's financial and operating performance. Such measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Consequently, APMs have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for related financial measures prepared in accordance to IFRS. The APMs have been derived from the Group's internal reporting and are not audited. The APM reconciliations can be found on the Group's website

Computation of average amounts and annualized income statement measures

In computation of key ratios where averages of capital balances are related to income statement measures, the average capital balances are based on the opening balance and all quarter-end closing balances included in the reporting period, and the income statement measures are annualized, translated at average rates for the period. In computation of key ratios where end-of-period capital balances are related to income statement measures, the latter are annualized, translated at end of-period exchange rates. Adjustments are made for acquired and divested operations.
