CEO JAN WAHLSTRÖM COMMENTS ON Q4

In the fourth quarter, the Group's sales growth was 19 percent. We achieved this in a period when the pandemic was still rampant in society and challenged us and our customers in various ways. Profitability for the quarter is above our long-term target of 13 percent. Earnings were influenced by a positive product mix during the quarter and a lean organization with focus on continuous improvements.

We saw new challenges in the latter part of the year. The dynamics in the entire American labor market are particularly challenging, both in terms of recruiting and retaining staff. We have full focus on this situation, both locally and from the Group. We see this as one of our most important priorities in 2022 and therefore we are now adding a reinforcement through the recruitment of an HR Director for the Group from the first quarter to support investments in personnel. The pandemic has also meant a relatively high sickness absence in all of our operations and we have noted increased costs in the supply chain, for example. Of course, we continue to monitor the global development.

We have increased our investment pace within production and our work within automation and improved efficiency continues. Our focus is to ensure that we meet our customers' growth needs and to provide even better service to our customers.

I am proud of the journey we have made during the past several years and the results we achieved in 2021. The foundation of our success is all our committed and dedicated employees to whom I would like to express my great appreciation. With a strong and good majority shareholder, a competent and motivated organization and a growing market, the company has a strong platform to continue to build on.

OTHER INFORMATION

Accounting policies

This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Reporting and the relevant provisions in the Annual Accounts Act. The interim report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with Chapter 9 of the Annual Accounts Act, Interim Report. For the Group and the Parent Company, the same accounting principles and calculation bases have been applied as in the most recent annual report.

In addition to the financial statements, disclosures in accordance with IAS 34.16A are also presented in parts of the interim report.

Segment reporting

The internal financial follow-up per business area is adapted to the Group's different customer segments and uses operating profit as a measure to assess segment performance. Directly attributable items and items that can reasonably be allocated by segment have been included in the segment's operating profit .

Unallocated Group expenses refer mainly to note-related costs and transaction costs in connection with the completion of the offer from the new majority owner, as well as costs attributable to the strategic review.

Financial instruments valued at fair value

For its property loans in the US, the Group swaps its variable interest rate for a fixed rate through interest rate swaps. These interest rate swaps are recognized at fair value via the income statement. Unrealized gains and losses arising from fluctuations in the fair values of the financial instruments are recognized in net financial items in the consolidated income statement. For interest rate swaps, fair value is determined based on market prices. If such prices are not available, fair value is determined by discounting the difference between the contractual interest rate and the interest rate that can be obtained at the balance sheet date for the remaining contract term. Any premiums paid for the swap contract are recognized as interest over the term of the contract. As Elos Medtech intends to hold these derivatives to maturity, mark-to-market accounting of the derivatives over time will not affect earnings or cash flow.

Fair value measurement of interest rate derivatives had a positive impact of SEK 0.6 (0.7) million on quarterly earnings and a positive impact of SEK 2.7 (-3.3) million on earnings for the year.

Government grants

Government grants are recognized in the income statement in the same period as for the costs they are intended to offset. Furthermore, there should be reasonable certainty that the contributions will be received and any conditions for the contributions will be met in order for these to be recognized in the income statement. The contributions received are recognized in the income statement as a cost reduction of the items covered by the support.

Significant risks and uncertainties

The Group's principal risks and uncertainties include operational and financial risks. Among operational risks, Elos Medtech is primarily affected by risks associated with customers and markets, but also other external factors such as price risks for materials and supplies. The Group also faces financial risks associated with changes in exchange rates and credit risks. A detailed description of the Group's risks and uncertainty factors, as well as how these are being managed, can be found in the Directors' Report and in Notes 42 and 44 in the 2020 Annual Report.

Covid-19 has had a major impact on economies worldwide, which has affected several of the markets in which Elos Medtech operates. The spread of the virus took off again in the fourth quarter with higher sick leave than usual due to current quarantine rules in each country, which led to some disruptions in production. The varying demand and imbalances in the supply of raw materials, transports and electricity in the global market have had a certain negative impact on Elos Medtech's costs and this impact could become even more pronounced going forward. There is also a risk that this imbalance may lead to supply disruptions to our customers.

Elos Medtech sees an increased need for production staff with technical expertise to ensure that it is able to meet market demand going forward. In some of the company's markets, there is currently a gap between demand and the existing pool of skilled workers, which could have a negative impact on growth.

No additional risks have been identified that may affect the Group's financial position and performance as of December 31, 2021.

Related party transactions

The company had no transactions with related parties during the reporting period.
