We continue to see high activity levels and demand for our solutions. There is an acceleration in renovation demand which correlates from the higher energy prices and this creates an increased requirement for sustainable aspects. With our focus on sustainable solutions, the Group is well positioned for this.
The world around us continues to present external challenges and the supply chain difficulties continue to be compounded by the lock downs in Shanghai and indirectly the war in Ukraine. We are actively handling the current challenges and continue to do everything possible to maintain high levels of service to our customers.
Order intake at 2,183 (2,123) MSEK results in an overall growth of +2.8%, adjusted to -1,3% for currencies. At a similar level to the first quarter, order intake remains on a high level and in line with Q2 2019.
The order backlog is 2,484 (1,765) MSEK, an increase of +41% from a year ago.
Net sales at 2,045 (1,846) MSEK delivers an overall growth of +10.8%, adjusted to +6,5% for currencies.
The Group's businesses continue to respond to ongoing cost pressures with price increases now impacting the results in a positive way. Our businesses are implementing further price increases to respond to ongoing cost increases for components, logistics and utilities.
The operating profit of 186.5 (208.2) MSEK delivers an operating margin of 9.1 (11.3)%.
Two factors affect the operating margin. Firstly the above mentioned ongoing supply chain cost pressures and secondly the strategic investments relating to people, sustainability and innovation which will benefit the business in future. We see the dip in operating margin as temporary as there are some time delays to adjust to inflationary conditions.
The operating cash flow was 20.3 (200.3) MSEK with the variance to last year being a 219 (37) MSEK increase in working capital. This results from the sales growth naturally increasing accounts receivables and inventory increases to proactively overcome the supply chain challenges.
The order intake was at a high level as market conditions remain favourable and net sales continued to show robust growth, despite the external conditions.
The Group's focus on our strategic priorities of people and culture, innovation and sustainability remains the driving force for key decision making.
The Group delivered another set of solid results. Order intake compares well to 2021 and 2019 (pre-pandemic) and the robust sales growth of 6.5% delivers a 187 MSEK operating profit, a margin of 9.1%.
The Group continues to deal well with the challenges in the world around us; the supply chain situation, the war in Ukraine and Covid.
The rolling 12 month order intake continues to climb above 8 BSEK. This is as a result of many successes on the market with high levels of innovation and a focus on sustainable solutions.

The recruitment and retention of valuable people and the development of leaders will be critical to our long term success. We are executing our HR strategy to respond to these demands.
Investments in innovation for connectivity and luminaire solutions is at our heart. Investments continue at Organic Response and Citygrid, and on September 1st a new Group CTO starts. The market pull for connectivity solutions continues to grow and we see many opportunities.

Bodil Sonesson, CEO and President
Innovation also includes luminaire design and development. We have already launched many great solutions in 2022. iGuzzini have launched 'Light Shed', an Ecodesign certified product family using innovative materials where noise is absorbed whilst maintaining excellent light comfort. This is a key offering for offices, retail and hospitality segments where high efficacy, visual comfort and performance are key.
Innovation is also targeted at specific markets, for example the Designplan IP65 'Stromma' solution targeting the German transport segment. 'Stromma' offers a unique solution for rail station and platform applications providing highly efficient performance combined with exceptional glare control and visual comfort.
Our sustainability strategy makes good progress. In Q2 we have established our carbon footprint baseline (scope 1, 2 & 3) for our global operations. From this welldefined starting point we will develop our long term targets.
Our sustainability focus also brings refurbishment opportunities. In Q2 Fagerhult secured the project for Telenor's head office in Oslo. The office will be supplied with new LED luminaires replacing the fluorescent ones supplied by Fagerhult many years ago which will be returned to Fagerhult for full recycling.
Looking internally, all indicators are positive. We have an improving business and a healthy order backlog. The strategic focus is clear and we are working well on many opportunities.
Looking externally, we are well prepared for the uncertain times ahead and well positioned for when the markets return to a more stable state.

Operating cash flow, MSEK Cash flow from operating activities was MSEK -48.1 (258.9)
During the first half year the Group's performance has been strong. We have had high activity levels, as evidenced by the double-digit increase in order intake and a record high order backlog level.
Net sales have seen a significant increase despite the ongoing negative impact from the supply chain and the level of profitability is flat compared to last year which delivers a temporary slightly lower operating margin.
The Group's half year order intake of 4,388 (3,977) MSEK shows a +10.3% increase, decreasing to +5.9% when adjusting for currency effects of +178 MSEK.
The Group's half year net sales of 3,917 (3,523) MSEK show an +11.2% increase, decreasing to +7.0% when adjusting for currency effects of +148 MSEK.
The Group's operating profit at the half year of 360 (361) MSEK shows a resilient performance in an environment which continues with external challenges. The operating margin for the half year is 9.2 (10.2)% and this is capable of further development once the challenges begin to subside.
Operating cash flows in the period were negative -48.1 (positive 258.9) MSEK with the variance due to a working capital increase of 501.2 (154.1) MSEK. Compared to Q2 2021, inventories increase 417 MSEK and receivables increase 182.9 MSEK.
Financial items of 25.2 (43.0) MSEK include 10.4 (10.0) MSEK for IFRS16, net interest expenses of 19.3 (19.0) MSEK and currency effects of positive 4.5 (negative 14.0) MSEK.
The tax expense in the period of 84.0 (84.2) MSEK results in a 25.1 (26.5)% tax rate.

Brands included are; Arlight, Eagle and Whitecroft, with product development and manufacturing facilities in Turkey, Australia and the UK.
Business area order intake for the quarter of 265 (283) MSEK, shows an organic decline of -6.4%. Contributing to this is the very weak Turkish Lira and a strong Q2 in the UK business in last year.

In the quarter operating profits were 7.4 (27.8) MSEK and the operating margin was 3.0 (10.5)%. Gross profit and pricing challenges combined with operational challenges prevent a short term return to double-digit operating margins.

The interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual accounts Act. The information for the interim period on pages 1-16 is an integral part of this financial report. The Parent Company's interim report has been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 2.
Applied accounting principles are unchanged in comparison with those described in Fagerhult's annual report for the financial year 2021.
The Group's significant risks and uncertainties consist primarily of business risks, and financial risks associated with currencies and interest rates. Through the company's international operations, the Fagerhult Group is subject to financial exposure arising from currency fluctuations as well as the regionalised uncertainty of political situations.
The most prominent risks, however, are currency risks arising from export sales and imports of raw materials and components. This exposure is reduced by hedging the flow of sensitive currencies, based on individual assessment. Currency risk also arises in the translation of foreign net assets and earnings.
For more information about the company's risks, refer to the 2021 Annual Report and the section on risks on the Group's website. In addition to the risks described in the company's Annual Report and the risks linked to the ongoing Covid pandemic, the supply chain disruption and the effects from the situation in Ukraine, no other significant risks are considered to have arisen.
The Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer warrant that the interim report gives a true and fair picture of the company's and Group's operations, financial position and results, and describes all significant risks and uncertainties faced by the Group
