January - June 2020

Comments from Mattias Perjos, President & CEO

Making a real difference together with our customers

"During the second quarter, we continued to work closely with our hospital and pharmaceutical customers to support them in their efforts to combat COVID-19. This resulted in a large number of orders and deliveries of advanced ICU ventilators and ECMO therapy products for hospitals and Sterile Transfer products for the pharmaceutical industry. Our order intake increased organically by 17.5%, and sales rose by 9.1%, due to a very strong development in parts of Acute Care Therapies. The high volumes, combined with the productivity measures in recent years, resulted in increased profitability, strengthened free cash flow and lower net debt. We have received feedback from customers about the positive effect that our advanced ICU ventilators have had for treating COVID-19 patients, which is highly encouraging in our intensive efforts to gradually increase production of ventilators by 160% in 2020. Our greatest challenge remains ensuring access to components from our suppliers. Our cardiac and vascular surgery products were negatively impacted by COVID-19 because planned procedures were postponed, but we could see an improvement in this area in June when a rising number of hospitals started to work through the backlog that had accumulated during the pandemic. We expect a slow recovery of capital goods for hospitals, which has impacted sales and profitability for Surgical Workflows this quarter and will do so for the remainder of 2020. We continued to implement our strategy, with an intense focus on product development, growth and profitability, at a fast tempo despite COVID-19. I am very pleased with how Getinge has created new work methods internally and together with our customers. Finally, I would like to thank all hospital staff, our partners and all my colleagues around the world for the valuable cooperation during this crisis-you are making an incredible difference to overcome this pandemic!"

Net sales – bridge between April-June 2019 and April-June 2020

  • The continued high organic order growth is clearly linked to Acute Care Therapies, in Critical Care, that reported sharp growth in all geographic markets.
  • The order intake in Surgical Workflows and Life Science declined organically, related to capital goods
  • The strong performance in EMEA was the result of an exceptionally strong order intake in ventilators, while the order intake in Americas and APAC was hampered by lower demand for capital goods in Surgical Workflows and low activity in planned surgery.
  • Growth in net sales was primarily attributable to deliveries in Acute Care Therapies, in Critical Care and Cardiopulmonary.
  • Net sales in Surgical Workflows were negatively affected by lower activity related to capital goods.
  • Net sales in Life Science were positively impacted by the very high sales in Sterile Transfer and the slightly positive growth in sterilizers due to larger deliveries toward the end of the quarter.
  • The strong performance in EMEA was the result of large deliveries of ventilators, while Americas and APAC were hampered by significantly lower volumes in planned surgery and reduced deliveries in Surgical Workflows.
  • Net sales increased by SEK 694 M, corresponding to 11.1%.
  • Acquired operations represented growth of SEK 86 M, corresponding to 1.4%.
  • Exchange rates had a positive impact of SEK 35 M on sales, corresponding to almost 0.6%.
  • · Volume, mix and other items positively affected sales by SEK 573 M, corresponding to growth of 9.1%

  • Currency effects impacted adjusted gross profit by SEK +46 M and adjusted EBITA by SEK-4 M.

  • The gross margin continued to strengthen, mainly due to a sharp increase in sales of ventilators and ECMO products combined with the productivity measures carried out in recent years.
  • Adjusted operating expenses declined 2.2% compared with Q2 2019, as a result of productivity improvements and adjusting work methods to COVID-19.
  • Adjusted EBITA rose by SEK 626 M year-on-year and the margin increased by 8.1 percentage points to 17.5%.
  • Acquisition and restructuring costs amounted to SEK-168 M, attributable to rationalization measures in Acute Care Therapies and Surgical Workflows, which are expected to contribute SEK 130 M in annual savings, gradually realized from the autumn of 2020. Other items affecting comparability amounted to SEK-167 M, comprising impairment related to primarily older R&D projects.
  • Net financial items improved SEK 39 M as a result of lower net debt and interest expenses.
  • The effective tax rate declined compared with the preceding quarter, mainly due to considerably higher earnings in Sweden.
  • Acute Care Therapies increased its adjusted EBITA by SEK 589 M and the margin improved by 10.2 percentage points, due to a sharp increase in sales volumes.
  • Life Science's adjusted EBITA rose by SEK 34 M and the margin increased by 3.4 percentage points, mainly due to a positive product mix.
  • · Surgical Workflows' adjusted EBITA improved by SEK 4 M compared with Q2 2019 and the margin was unchanged despite a significant decline in sales.

Events in the business area

  • · In May, Getinge introduced Advanta V12 balloon expandable covered stent, a larger diameter size to offer customers increased treatment options within vascular procedures. The larger diameter Advanta V12 balloon expandable covered stent is CE marked and TGA approved for restoring and improving the patency of iliac arteries.
  • The newly updated and expanded digital platform Getinge Online can enable hospitals to improve efficiency by using product data to gain insights, enable rapid remote error detection and maximize uptime. Of the acute care products, the first ones to be connected to the new portal are the Getinge Flow Family anesthesia machines and the Servo-u, Servo-n and Servo-air ventilators. The enhanced platform is designed in close collaboration with customers and the feedback has been very positive.
  • Acute Care Therapies initiated the planned consolidation of the operations in Mahwah and Fairfield to the closely located plant in Wayne, USA, which is expected to be completed in 2021. In total, the relocation is expected to generate annual savings of SEK 40 M, with gradually increasing realization from Q4 2020. This measure gave rise to restructuring costs of SEK 54 M in the second quarter. In addition to these savings, the consolidation will increase the concentration of skills and result in a higher degree of control in, for example, quality management and production.

• Very strong growth in ventilator orders for the quarter.

  • Lower activity in scheduled cardiac and vascular surgery had a negative effect on the order intake, mainly in Americas. However, the trend bottomed out in May, followed by recovery in June.
  • Intense efforts to deliver ventilators and FCMO products to hospitals contributed to an increase in sales, despite a decline in other categories.
  • Disruptions to production and logistics had a limited impact on deliveries in the quarter.
  • Lower activity in scheduled cardiac and vascular surgery had a negative effect predominantly in Americas and APAC.
  • Sales of capital goods increased significantly as a result of large deliveries of ventilators.
  • The adjusted gross margin rose 4.3 percentage points in relation to the year-earlier quarter, primarily as a result of volumes effects from the sharp increase in sales of ventilators and ECMO products, geographic mix and increased productivity due to previously implemented rationalizations.
  • Adjusted operating expenses increased by 0.5%, due to negative currency effects. Operating expenses fell organically by 2.5%.
  • Higher sales and operational leverage contributed to an increase in the adjusted EBITA margin of 10.2 percentage points compared with the preceding year.

Events in the business area

  • · Maquet Moduevo Bridge, launched in June, is Getinge's latest space-saving and cost-effective ceiling supply unit. The horizontal solution is designed to accommodate architectural constraints, enhance interactions between patient and medical staff and foster a healing environment in intensive care units, recovery and emergency departments.
  • In May, Getinge introduced a new range of consumables for sterile reprocessing. Getinge Assured Superfast 20 Biological Indicator speeds up the ability of the Central Sterile Supply Department (CSSD) to release loads safely, ensuring that the sterile instruments can be in the right place, at the right time.
  • During the quarter, continued productivity improvements were implemented in accordance with plan, including in Rastatt (Germany) and Växjö (Sweden). In addition, discussions were initiated with employee representatives to move the turnkey Operations Room project management division (Getinge Hospital Solutions) to newly established hubs in South Asia and the Middle East, with the aim of getting closer to end customers and establishing a more competitive supplier platform. The measures are expected to result in annual savings of SEK 90 M, with gradually increasing realization from autumn 2020. Restructuring costs amount to SEK 114 M.

  • The order intake declined significantly in all product categories as a result of COVID-19.

  • The decline was particularly noticeable in Americas since hospitals prioritized investments in intensive care.
  • Net sales were not impacted to the same extent as the order intake since many deliveries were made on orders placed in previous quarters. Infection Control products in EMEA withstood the decline the best. mainly due to high sales in the Middle East.
  • · Sales in Surgical Workplaces were tangibly impacted by fewer deliveries in Americas as a result of lower activity in the relevant areas of health care in both North and South America.
  • The adjusted gross margin fell by 0.9 of a percentage point mainly as a result of lower sales. Enhanced productivity contributed to offsetting the negative effect.
  • Adjusted operating expenses declined by 10.7% and fell organically by 10.8% compared with Q2 2019. This was attributable to previously implemented rationalizations combined with lower selling expenses (travel and participation at trade fairs) as a result of COVID-19.
  • Adjusted EBITA improved by SEK 4 M and the margin was unchanged compared with Q2 2019 despite lower sales.
  • Currency effects impacted sales by SEK +5 M, adjusted gross profit by SEK +3 M and adjusted EBITA by SEK +2M

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 has worked intensively together with hospitals around the world to help as many patients as possible since the outbreak of COVID-19. This contributed to a 44.3% organic increase in the order intake for the Acute Care Therapies business area for the quarter as a result of the sharp increase in demand for ventilators and cardiopulmonary products. Demand declined for the other product segments in the business area since non-urgent operations were postponed. Clear signs of a recovery in these product segments could be seen toward the end of the quarter and the decline in the order intake slowed down. Demand in other areas of the operations declined due to the economic downturn resulting from the pandemic. Primarily the Surgical Workflows business area was negatively impacted, with its order intake falling organically by 18.1% in the second quarter. The order intake for the Life Science business area declined organically by 1.2%.

The Group's sales and earnings improved as a result of the outbreak of the virus and the increase in the order intake for ventilators and cardiopulmonary products in the first quarter could be increasingly converted to net sales. 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. Minor disruptions occurred in the production operations in the form of sick leave among employees and problems with deliveries of components, which were possible to resolve without any significantly negative consequences arising. Major efforts were made to enhance production capacity for ventilators. This took place in close cooperation with subcontractors and both authorities and companies in several countries have assisted Getinge in this important task.

The sharp increase in activity in the areas of Acute Care Therapies that are directly linked to treating patients with COVID-19 contributed to the improvement in sales and earnings for the business area despite a decline in other product segments. Both sales and earnings fell in Surgical Workflows due to a lower level of activity in the areas of health care that are not related to the outbreak of the virus. Sales and earnings for Life Science were not generally impacted by the outbreak of the virus to any significant extent.

As time passes, the situation regarding the pandemic could result in negative financial effects due to lower demand, a shortage of components 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, 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 and plans have been made to further adjust costs if necessary.

Since there is currently significant uncertainty regarding the future course of events, Getinge does not provide a 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%.

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. The highest net sales are usually 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 annual organic growth in net sales: 2-4% $\bullet$
  • Average earnings per share growth: >10%
  • Getinge's dividend policy is to pay dividends of 30-50% of net profit to shareholders.

Assurance

The Board of Directors and CEO assure that the interim report provides a true and fair review of the Parent Company and the Group's operations, position and earnings and describes the material risks and uncertainties faced by the Parent Company and the Group.
