Getinge — Interim / Quarterly Report 2020

Apr 22, 2020

Interim report

January - March 2020

Comments from Mattias Perjos, President & CEO Intense efforts to help hospitals in the COVID-19 pandemic

"The quarter was dominated by the COVID-19 pandemic and the huge need for advanced ventilators and ECMO therapy at intensive care units around the world. Our leading global positions in both of these fields contributed to a 47% organic order growth. We expect to see continuing strong demand in both of these areas since demand is far outstripping supply. Consequently, we announced at the start of April that we were increasing production capacity of ventilators by 160% compared with 2019. Capacity will be ramped up gradually and on the condition that we can ensure access to the necessary components from our subsuppliers. We expect the high delivery rate to continue into 2021 and subsequently gradually return to past levels, which we will be able to adapt to quickly and cost efficiently. We also decided to make additional investments to successively increase production capacity in ECMO. The order intake for the quarter declined in Life Science and Surgical Workflows as a result of COVID-19. For this reason, we made certain cost adjustments and have contingency in place to further adjust costs if necessary. All in all, margins were positively impacted by higher volumes, an advantageous product mix, operational leverage and currency effects. The cash flow and cash balances were further strengthened. In conclusion, my colleagues at Getinge and I would like to express our sincere gratitude to all of the hospitals and clinical personnel in this difficult time. We will do our best to support them in the continued fight against COVID-19."

Net sales - bridge between Jan-Mar 2019 and Jan-Mar 2020

• The sharp organic order growth was clearly related to Acute Care Therapies' two product segments of Critical Care and Cardiopulmonary, which offer products for treating patients diagnosed with COVID-19.
• The order intake for Life Science and Surgical Workflows declined organically and at an accelerating rate, as a result of precautionary measures and lower activity in the relevant areas of hospitals and Life Science.

• The increased order volume at the end of the quarter could only be converted into net sales for this quarter to a limited extent.

• The organic growth for the quarter was primarily attributable to deliveries in Acute Care Therapies to customers in APAC and EMEA in pace with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Net sales in Life Science and Surgical Workflows were negatively affected by lower activity due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

· Sales of capital goods are increasing faster than consumables and service. The product group structure was reclassified, which led to a minor shift between consumables and capital goods. Comparative figures were restated as part of this process.

• Net sales increased by SEK 485 M, corresponding to 8.7%

• Acquired operations represented growth of SEK 72 M, corresponding to growth of almost 1.3%
• Exchange rates had a positive impact of SEK 204 M on sales, corresponding to almost 3.7%

• Volume, mix and other items positively affected sales by 3.8%

• Currency effects had a positive impact of SEK 189 M on adjusted gross profit and SEK 139 M on adjusted EBITA

• The gross margin continued to strengthen, mainly due to higher sales in Acute Care Therapies, ramped up productivity and positive currency effects
• Adjusted operating expenses rose 4.1% compared with Q1 2019. Organically, these operating expenses fell by 0.5%
• Adjusted EBITA rose by SEK 292 M year-on-year and the margin increased by 4.3 percentage points to 11.0%
• Other items affecting comparability amounted to SEK-23 M and were attributable to Acute Care Therapies and Surgical Workflows
• Net financial items declined SEK 36 M as a result of lower net debt and interest expenses
• The reported effective tax rate is seasonally high in the first quarter and is expected to decline to 30-32% for the full-year 2020 depending on the trend in the geographic mix
• Acute Care Therapies increased its adjusted EBITA by SEK 302 M and the margin improved by 6.2 percentage points, mainly due to higher sales volumes and positive currency effects
• Life Science's adjusted EBITA rose by SEK 2 M, while the margin declined by 1.1 percentage points, mainly attributable to higher expenses compared with the yearearlier period, due to acquired operations and currency effects
• Surgical Workflows' adjusted EBITA fell by SEK 8 M and the margin fell 0.5 of a percentage point, primarily due to a lower sales volumes compared with the year-earlier period

Events in the business area

• During the quarter, Applikon Biotechnology, which was recently acquired and is now part of Getinge, launched its second bioreactor in the AppliFlex ST series. The new AppliFlex ST 3.0 stands apart from other single-use bioreactors since it is fully customizable to specific customer needs based on 3D printing technology. The first AppliFlex bioreactor, AppliFlex ST 0.5, was launched in 2019.

• In February, the Getinge Cage Handling System was introduced to expand the offering to the biomedical research segment. This is a robotic system solution facilitating automated handling of laboratory cages in the washing process. This maximizes throughput, improves ergonomics and minimizes operator exposure to potentially harmful airborne dust and allergens.

• The organic decline in order intake was mainly attributable to delays to new projects due to COVID-19

• This was partially offset by healthy growth in washer-disinfectors and consumables
• Healthy organic growth in the Sterile transfer and Sterilizer product segments and in consumables, also in the final month of the quarter
• Fewer deliveries in washerdisinfectors and lower invoicing level in service due to precautionary measures related to COVID-19
• The adjusted gross margin strengthened by 1.9 percentage points as a result of higher sales, increased productivity and positive currency effects
• Adjusted operating expenses rose by SEK1M organically and by SEK 40 M inorganically compared with the same period in 2019. The inorganic growth was due to negative currency effects and acquisitions
• Adjusted EBITA increased by SEK 2 M year-on-year. The margin fell by 1.1 percentage points to 8.0% as a result of higher operating expenses. The margin increased organically by 0.7 of a percentage point due to improved underlying productivity.
• Currency effects impacted sales by SEK +19 M, adjusted gross profit by SEK +18 M and adjusted EBITA by SEK +13 M

Surgical Workflows

Surgical Workflows offers products and solutions to serve as an end-to-end partner for optimizing the quality, safety and capacity usage of the sterile supply departments and operating rooms. The addressable market size, notwithstanding the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, amounts to SEK 62 billion with long-term expected organic growth of 2-4% per year.

Events in the business area

Underlying earnings trend¹⁾

• During the quarter, Getinge launched Maquet Meera CL-a new operating room table ideal for general surgery and versatile use. Maquet Meera CL is built on the same stable components as the rest of the Meera operating room table range, and is manufactured in the German city of Rastatt where Getinge has constructed operating room tables for decades. Designed with all necessary functions, it is ideal for hospitals looking for a competitively price alternative.

• In February, Getinge launched Torin worldwide a complete software management solution that helps surgical departments advance their surgery planning, execute efficiently on the schedule, and continuously improve the utilization of resources in and across different collaborating departments. Torin is currently being implemented in two pilot sites in France and Japan.

• The order intake declined in relation to healthy growth in Q1 2019 (+6.4%) and at an accelerating rate toward the end of the quarter, which was due to lower activity in the parts of the health care sector that were not directly linked to the treatment of patients diagnosed with COVID-19. This was particularly clear in Surgical Workplaces

• However, toward the end of the quarter the order intake in APAC increased compared with last year
• Net sales followed the same pattern as the order intake, with lower activity toward the end of the quarter as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This trend was most clearly seen in Surgical Workplaces and in Americas

Other information

Financial impact of COVID-19

The outbreak of COVID-19 was characterized by the WHO as a pandemic on March 11, 2020. In this situation, Getinge is prioritizing the health and safety of its employees and is taking measures to limit the spread of the virus by following the instructions of the relevant authorities. In addition, Getinge has taken measures and made preparations to safeguard production of critical and life support products.

Getinge is working intensively together with hospitals around the world to help as many patients as possible since the outbreak of COVID-19. This contributed to a 96.4% organic increase in the order intake for the Acute Care Therapies business area as a result of the sharp increase in demand for ventilators and cardiopulmonary products. Demand declined slightly for the other product segments in the business area since non-urgent operations were postponed. Demand in other areas of the operations declined at an accelerating rate at the end of the quarter due to the economic downturn resulting from the pandemic. Order intake for the Surgical Workflows business area declined organically by 14.0% in the quarter, and the order intake for the Life Science business area fell organically by 13.1%.

The Group's sales and earnings were not impacted by the outbreak of the virus to any significant extent, and only a small part of the increase in order intake for Acute Care Therapies could be converted into net sales in the quarter. It has been possible to continue work on the installation and servicing of products, and this was not negatively affected by restrictions in key markets. Disruptions occurred in certain parts of the production operations in the form of high sick leave among employees and problems with deliveries of components, which were possible to resolve without any significantly negative consequences arising. A slight decline in sales could be seen in Surgical Workflows and Life Science toward the end of the quarter.

As time passes, the situation regarding the pandemic could result in negative financial effects due to lower demand and disruptions to production. It also cannot be ruled out that installation and service of products at hospitals and care facilities could be limited by restrictions to reduce the spread of the virus. The Group's cash flow could decline as a result of investments in higher production capacity, high sales growth, inventory build-up and impaired payment discipline among the Group's customers. Getinge is closely following developments regarding the pandemic and is continuously evaluating the operational and financial effects. Some minor measures to adjust costs were carried out during the quarter and plans have been made to further adjust costs if necessary.

Since there is currently significant uncertainty regarding the future course of events, Getinge has withdrawn its forecast for organic sales growth for the full-year 2020. The year-end report for 2019 stated that organic sales growth for 2020 was expected to amount to 2-4%.

The Consent Decree with the FDA was signed in February 2015 and originally encompassed a total of four production units in the US and Germany.

Improvement plans for the identified corrections have been prepared for each unit. Such identified corrections have been completed at the two production units in the US. This work is expected to continue until 2021 at Hechingen.

In autumn 2018 and the start of 2019, Getinge's production units in Fairfield and Mahwah $\overline{\phantom{a}}$ received warning letters from the FDA. The reason for the warning letters was routine inspections performed by the FDA at these production units in 2018. The FDA's observations and opinions pertain to procedures and processes linked to demands for supplier checks, processes for the approval of design changes and incident reporting. The same observations were identified by Getinge during internal inspections in the fourth quarter of 2017. The local organization has since worked to correct the shortcomings in the quality management system. Getinge has submitted an action plan, including activities and a related schedule, to the FDA and improvements are proceeding according to plan.

Events after the end of the reporting period

Production capacity ramped up to 26,000 ventilators in 2020

On April 6, 2020, Getinge announced that the company would ramp up its production capacity in advanced ventilators for intensive care units in response to the significant increase in demand as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak. Production capacity will be gradually ramped up and a total of 26,000 ventilators will be manufactured in 2020, compared with the roughly 10,000 ventilators manufactured in 2019.

Temporary lay-offs in areas with significant order decline

After the end of the quarter, Getinge decided to temporarily lay off personnel in the product segments in which a significant decline in orders can be seen. These lay-offs are being managed locally according to applicable regulations.

Risk management¹⁾

Health care reimbursement system

Political decisions represent the single greatest market risk to Getinge Group. Changes to the health care reimbursement system can have a major impact on individual markets by reducing or deferring grants. This risk is limited by Getinge being active in a large number of geographical markets.

Customers

Activities conducted by Getinge's customers are generally financed directly or indirectly by public funds. The ability to pay is usually very solid, although payment behavior can vary between different countries. All transactions outside the OECD area are covered by payment guarantees, unless the customer's ability to pay is well documented.

Authorities and control bodies

Parts of Getinge's product range are covered by legislation stipulating rigorous assessments, quality control and documentation. It cannot be ruled out that Getinge's operations, financial position and earnings may be negatively impacted in the future by difficulties in complying with current regulations and requirements of authorities and control bodies or changes to such regulations and requirements. To limit these risks to the greatest possible extent, Getinge conducts extensive work focused on quality and regulatory issues. The Group-wide quality and regulatory compliance function has, besides a representative in the executive management team, a representative on the management teams of each business area, and the function is represented in all R&D and production units. The majority of the Group's production facilities are certified according to the medical device quality standard ISO 13485 and/or the general quality standard ISO 9001. Getinge is also, and may become in the future, involved in government investigations, disputes and similar proceedings within the framework of its other business operations concerning such issues as the environment, tax and competition. Since Getinge operates in a global environment, the company is also exposed to local business risks, such as corruption and restrictions on trade. To minimize the risk of being subject to such investigations, disputes and proceedings, Getinge works actively on developing, implementing and maintaining policies and systems for ensuring compliance with applicable rules and regulations. The overall

¹⁾ For information regarding risks related to COVID-19 and the ongoing pandemic, refer to the section on "Financial impact of COVID-19" on page 8.

responsibility for identifying and addressing potential risk areas lies with the Getinge Executive Team and the business operations. The Compliance and the Internal Audit functions assist with support and ongoing monitoring as well as investigations and internal auditing.

Research and development

Getinge's future growth also depends on the company's ability to develop new and successful products. Research and development efforts are costly and it is impossible to guarantee that developed products will be commercially successful. As a means of maximizing the return on investments in research and development efforts, the Group applies a structured selection and planning process that includes careful analyses of the market, technological progress, choice of production method and selection of subcontractors. The actual development work is also conducted in a structured manner and each project undergoes a number of fixed control points.

Product liability and damage claims

Health care suppliers run a risk, like other players in the health care industry, of being subject to product liability and other legal claims. Such claims can involve large amounts and significant legal expenses. Getinge cannot provide any guarantees that its operations will not be subject to compensation claims. Getinge carries the customary indemnity and product liability insurance, but there is a risk that Getinge's insurance coverage may not fully cover product liability and other claims.

Protection of intellectual property rights

Getinge is a market leader in the areas in which it operates and invests significant amounts in product development. To secure returns on these investments, Getinge actively upholds its rights and monitors competitors' activities closely. There is the risk when new products are developed that other companies may claim a patent infringement, which could result in disputes. If required, Getinge will protect its intellectual property rights through legal processes.

Financial risk management

Getinge is exposed to a number of financial risks in its operations. Financial risks principally pertain to risks related to currency risks, interest-rate risks, and credit and counterparty risks. Risk management is regulated by the finance policy adopted by the Board and a Treasury directive decided by the Getinge Executive Team based on the finance policy. The ultimate responsibility for managing the Group's financial risks and developing methods and principles of financial risk management lies with the Getinge Executive Team and the treasury function. For more detailed information concerning these risks, refer to the Group's Annual Report. The Group has a number of participations in foreign operations whose net assets are exposed to currency risks. Currency exposure that arises from net assets in the Group's foreign operations is primarily managed by borrowing in said foreign currency.

Seasonal variations

Getinge's sales and earnings are affected by seasonal variations. Higher net sales are normally generated in the fourth quarter, followed by the second, third and first quarters. The shares of sales derived from capital goods and consumables also normally changes during the year, with a higher share of sales of capital goods toward the end of the year.

Transactions with related parties

Getinge carried out normal commercial transactions with Arjo (which was distributed to shareholders in December 2017) for the sale and purchase of goods and services. In addition, no other significant transactions with related parties occurred during the period other than transactions with subsidiaries.

Forward-looking information

This report contains forward-looking information based on the current expectations of company management. Although management deems that the expectations presented by such forwardlooking information are reasonable, no guarantee can be given that these expectations will prove correct. Accordingly, the actual future outcome could vary considerably compared with what is

stated in the forward-looking information, due to such factors as changed conditions regarding finances, market and competition, changes in legal and regulatory requirements and other political measures, and fluctuations in exchange rates.

Getinge's financial targets

• Average earnings per share growth: >10%
• Getinge's dividend policy is to pay dividends of 30-50% of net profit to shareholders.
