Comments from the CEO, Jan Wahlström

During the third quarter of 2018, we continued to deliver growth in line with our strategic targets. We are pleased to say that all our business areas are developing positively. Growth in the quarter amounted to 16 per cent and it was the seventh consecutive quarter of growth. The business areas Orthopedics and Dental Implant Systems are the drivers of our growth. Accumulated sales after nine months is 11 per cent higher than last year. We are proud to have achieved our strategic growth target and we are intensifying our work to achieve other strategic targets.

So far in 2018, we have further consolidated our position as key partner in the global medical technology market. We are seeing a trend towards capacity and delivery reliability being the most important factors in choosing a partner. This trend benefits Elos Medtech, which represents quality, expertise and innovation. We have noticed an increased inflow of enquiries, and we are also seeing more interest from our global customers in giving projects to more than one of our units. This is clear confirmation of the value of our global offering. There is also continued consolidation in the industry, especially in the orthopedics area, where we have recently seen further acquisitions among our customers. Internally, we anticipate there being more opportunities for improvement in the future, primarily through increased specialisation within our strategic focus areas.

Within Dental Implant Systems, we saw growth of 9 per cent in the third quarter, with a figure of 5 per cent growth for the first three quarters of the year. This is slightly lower than our ambitions but in line with how the dental implant market as whole is developing. We implemented our global strategic plan, which encompasses several of our units, in this quarter. This change in strategy entails a clearer focus, reorganisation and associated efficiency measures that will lead to annual savings of SEK 6 million.

Orthopedics has undergone very positive development during the quarter, with growth of 25 per cent. The accumulated growth for the year is 16 per cent even though we do not yet have the capacity to accept all enquiries. We have now begun the expansion of production in Memphis to deal with the increased demand from American customers in trauma and robotic surgery. In October, our global Business Director for Orthopedics, Jodie Gilmore, was elected as an Advisory Council Member

of the Herff College of Engineering at the University of Memphis, giving a clear signal of our position in the orthopedics segment in the most important market, namely the USA.

Within Diagnostics, we received a sales boost during the quarter with continued very good profitability for the entire business area. Sales during the first nine months of the year has increased by 17 per cent compared to last year.

2017 saw moderate recovery in Hearing Device & Vibration and we predicted stronger growth in 2018. Sales growth for the three quarters was 23 per cent. We expect the growth in Hearing Device & Vibration to level out in the future, because we will be focusing on raising the level of service for our existing customers.

Unlike other business areas, the market for Other Medical Areas is characterised by major price pressure. Despite a positive trend, it is not as high as in other business areas.

The quarter demonstrated improved profitability. Profit amounted to SEK 11.8 million with an operating margin of 7.7 per cent. With the exception of one unit, all units reported better profit than we had planned for. We are implementing a range of improvement measures that to a lesser extent we see the effects of in Q3; we do not expect to see the full effect on the profit until 2019.

In terms of the third quarter, we have continued to deliver performance in line with our plan for growth and expansion. We are continuing our journey towards specialization and our objective is for all business areas to increase their degree of specialization and offer products that are best-in-class. Our long-term and sustained improvement efforts are still a work in progress. We aim to achieve improved efficiency and thus higher profitability.

The Group's operations are undertaken within a single line of business consisting of the development, manufacture and sale of medical devices. Operations are managed, developed and marketed as a single entity, i.e. Elos Medtech. The consolidated income statement and the statement of financial position in their entireties therefore refer to one operating segment.

Revenue

July – September 2018

Performance January – September 2018

Operating profit for the first nine months of the year amounted to SEK 27.9 million (36.1), which corresponds to an operating margin of 5.9 per cent (8.4). There was a negative impact on operating profit from non-recurring costs of SEK 5.6 million. The non-recurring costs can mainly be attributed to the restructuring of the Group's production unit in Timmersdala, and to legal costs for the legal dispute in the United States that was settled in the second quarter. Consolidated net financial items amounted to SEK -5.4 million (-15.4) after the positive impact from exchange differences, which was SEK 2.3 million (-8.4).

Events during the quarter

We implemented our global strategic plan in the Dental Implant Systems business area during the quarter. This reorganisation and associated efficiency measures will lead to annual savings of SEK 6 million.

Parent Company

In addition to the administration of central management issues, the Parent Company also engages in Group support operations such as market support, production and quality management, risk management, financing and financial control. The Parent Company's net sales during the third quarter amounted to SEK 6.2 million (5.7). Profit after financial items amounted to a loss of SEK -1.7 million (-4.5). The Parent Company's comprehensive income was SEK -1.4 million (-3.5). The share of own risk-bearing capital was 80.7 per cent (64.7). The equity/ assets ratio amounted to 80.3 per cent (64.4).

Significant risks and factors of uncertainty

The Group's significant risks and factors of uncertainty include the business risks associated with customers and suppliers and other external factors, such as price risks for input goods. In addition, the Group manages the financial risks associated with fluctuations in exchange rates and interest rates. A detailed description of the Group's risks, factors of uncertainty and their management can be found in the administration report as well as notes 1 and 42 of the annual report for 2017.

Related party transactions

During the reporting period, the company has executed transactions with senior executives. In the second quarter, the last instalment of the additional purchase price of SEK 10.0 million for the acquisition of Onyx Medical LLC was paid. No further transactions have occurred during the third quarter.

Accounting policies

The consolidated financial statements for 2018, similarly to the annual financial statements for 2017, have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU, and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The Parent Company's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 2 "Accounting for Legal Entities".

This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34. The information on pages 1–14 constitutes an integral part of this financial report. The term "IFRS" in this document includes the application of both IAS and IFRS, as well as interpretations of these standards published by IASB's Standards Interpretations Committee (SIC) and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC).

The Group applies the same accounting policies as described in the annual report for 2017. New or amended recommendations applying from 2018 have not had any material impact on the financial statements. As of 1 January 2018, IFRS "9 Financial instruments" and IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" are applied. IFRS 9 addresses the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and liabilities. The Group's analysis has shown that the implementation of IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 will not have any material impact on the Group's financial statements. No transitional effects have therefore arisen as a result of the introduction of these accounting standards.

The guidelines issued by ESMA (European Securities and Markets Authority) on "Alternate performance measures" apply from 3 July 2016 and entail disclosure requirements for financial measures that are not defined according to IFRS.

Auditor's review

This interim report has been subject to a review by the company's auditors.

The Board of Directors and CEO certify that this interim report provides a true and fair view of the company's and the Group's operations, financial position and performance and describes the material risks and uncertainties faced by the company and the companies in the Group.

Auditor's report

Elos Medtech AB (publ) corp. reg. no. 556021-9650

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Elos Medtech AB (publ) as of 30 September 2018 and the nine-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.

Definitions of alternative performance measures

Alternative performance measures are financial measures for assessing the earnings trend, financial position and cash flow which are not defined in the applicable accounting rules, IFRS. These performance measures are considered to be important supplementary performance measures for the Group's financial performance and position, with the aim of creating an enhanced understanding of the operations. Alternative performance measures presented in the interim report should not be considered substitutes for terms and concepts as defined in IFRS, but instead as a supplement. These performance measures need not be comparable with similar performance indicators used by other companies. The reconciliation basis for the calculation of some of these performance measures is shown on page 13 of this report.
