Interim report

January – September 2022

Comments from Mattias Perjos, President & CEO

Strong margins but organic growth outlook lowered to minus 3-6% for 2022 due to external factors

"The order intake and net sales declined organically by 5% and 2.6%, respectively, during the quarter. This was mainly the result of elective surgeries at hospitals not having recovered to pre-pandemic levels and our challenging comparative figures for COVID-19 treatment products and vaccines impacting Acute Care Therapies and Life Science negatively (the order intake for the Group increased by 21.8% in Q3 2021). We see a continued positive trend within the product categories that were negatively impacted by the pandemic. We were impacted by supply chain challenges, which resulted in a negative impact of at least SEK 400 M on sales. The uncertain situation regarding demand in China, for example, linked to pandemic-related restrictions, also had a negative impact on our order intake and sales for the quarter. As a result of the overall uncertainty linked to these external factors, we are lowering our outlook for organic sales growth, which is expected to decrease by 3-6% for the full year 2022.

Higher productivity and positive currency effects helped keep margins up in the quarter. We made further progress in productivity improvements in our manufacturing, which will be even more evident once volumes increase. Non-recurring effects of approximately SEK 50 M, alongside recognized items affecting comparability, had a positive effect on earnings for the quarter. Lower variable employeerelated costs account for most of this item. We are continuing to strengthen our customer offering, particularly to help to increase the productivity of our customers. During the quarter, we announced a case study at a hospital in Germany that showed that our sterile reprocessing solutions shortened reprocessing batch times by 40% while also significantly reducing water computation. This meets customers' long term resource-efficiency requirements. Nevertheless, the single largest challenge facing our customers at the moment is increasing capacity in elective surgery. We are doing our utmost to be a strong partner in this important work."

  • The organic order intake declined in all business areas during the quarter.
  • The downturn in Acute Care Therapies was mainly due to challenging comparative figures in ventilators and ECMO therapy products last year due to exceptionally strong growth during the pandemic. The order intake for cardiovascular surgery products increased.
  • The order intake in Life Science fell, mainly as a result of lower demand for products related to the production of COVID-19 vaccines.
  • The organic order intake for Surgical Workflows declined, primarily due to lower activity in China that continued to experience COVID-19 restrictions.
  • Net sales for Acute Care Therapies declined organically due to challenging comparative figures in ventilators and ECMO therapy products last year. Growth in products for planned cardiovascular procedures is continuing to rise, despite the current shortage of personnel at hospitals.
  • Net sales for Life Science fell organically, mainly as a result of challenging comparative figures in products related to COVID-19 vaccines and major deliveries of washer-disinfectors last year. The positive trend in the service business is continuing.
  • Surgical Workflows increased its net sales organically in OR and Infection Control products.
  • Capital goods were negatively affected by lower sales, mainly in ventilators, and a continuing shortage of components.

Adjusted EBITA – bridge between Q3 2021 and Q3 2022

  • Currency effects impacted adjusted gross profit by SEK 450 M and adjusted EBITA by SEK 216 M during the quarter.
  • The gross margin declined as an effect of lower volumes, negative mix effects, increased costs related to inflation and supply chain challenges. These effects were offset by price increases, activities to enhance productivity and currencies.
  • Adjusted operating expenses rose 12.7% compared with Q3 2021 as a result of negative currency effects and higher costs from acquired businesses. Operating expenses were unchanged organically despite greater pressure on costs.
  • Adjusted EBITA rose by SEK 10 M year-on-year and the margin declined by 1.5 percentage points to 16.9%.
  • Net financial items improved by SEK 11 M mainly as a result of lower net debt.

  • Adjusted EBITA for Acute Care Therapies fell by SEK 17 M and the margin was 2.2 percentage points lower than last year. The main reason is the lower sales volumes in ventilators as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic eased.

  • Life Science's adjusted EBITA declined by SEK 55 M due to mix effects and the margin fell 7.1 percentage points.
  • Surgical Workflows' adjusted EBITA improved by SEK 80 M and the margin improved by 3.0 percentage points, as a result of higher sales volumes and increased productivity.

  • Adjusted operating expenses rose by 12.7% compared with Q3 2021 as a result of currency effects and acquisitions.

  • Organically, operating expenses were largely unchanged despite higher R&D costs and a general increase in pressure on costs. This was mainly offset by lower variable employee-related costs and positive realized currency effects attributable to operating receivables and liabilities in foreign currency (in other operating income and operating expenses).
  • Exchange-rate fluctuations (translation and transaction effects) impacted gross profit by SEK 450 M compared with last year, of which SEK 330 M in translation effects and SEK 120 M in transaction effects and hedging outcome.
  • Adjusted EBITA was impacted by translation effects of SEK 102 M and the net of transaction effects, hedging outcome and revaluation of operating receivables and liabilities in foreign currency of SEK 114 M.
  • Free cash flow was impacted by a higher volume of capital tied up in the business. This was due to a combination of more products being manufactured, a return to normal seasonal effects and the fact that the current product mix entails longer lead times.
  • The financial status remains strong, with net interest-bearing debt in relation to adjusted EBITDA R12M of 0.5.
  • Costs for R&D were 31.0% higher than in the year-earlier period as a result of higher activity, acquisitions and currency effects.
  • Capitalized development costs increased by 31.8% compared with the year-earlier period.

  • The organic decline in net sales was primarily attributable to lower volumes in ventilators.
  • Net sales increased in products for elective cardiovascular procedures, but net sales have not yet reached pre-pandemic levels.

The downturn in Acute Care Therapies was mainly due to challenging comparative figures in ventilators and ECMO therapy

The order intake for cardiovascular surgery products increased during the quarter, even though it is still below pre-pandemic levels. Challenging comparative figures in Americas and APAC, mainly related to ventilators and ECMO therapy products, were the reason for the negative growth in these regions.

products last year.

  • Sales of capital goods were negatively affected by the continuing shortage of components and lower demand for ventilators.
  • The adjusted gross margin was marginally higher despite lower sales volumes, a shortage of components and greater pressure on costs, which was offset by currency effects, a favorable mix and continuing productivity activities.
  • Adjusted operating expenses increased by 16.6% due to currency effects and acquisitions. These expenses increased organically by 1.0%, primarily as a result of higher R&D costs and general greater pressure on costs, which were partly offset by lower variable employee-related costs.
  • Lower sales volumes and higher adjusted operating expenses contributed to adjusted EBITA declining by SEK 17 M and the margin falling by 2.2 percentage points year-on-year.
  • Currency effects impacted sales by SEK 482 M, adjusted gross profit by SEK 306 M and adjusted EBITA by SEK 157 M.

Events in the business area

Successful efforts to reduce energy consumption in the operations continued. For example, the production facility in Tournefeuille, France, succeeded in reducing its electricity consumption by 44% in three years.

  • The order intake in Life Science fell organically in the quarter, mainly as a result of lower demand for products related to the production of COVID-19 vaccines.
  • The order intake increased in sterilizers, which contributed to the positive performance in EMEA.
  • Net sales for Life Science fell organically, mainly as a result of challenging comparative figures in products related to COVID-19 vaccines and major deliveries of washer-disinfectors last year.
  • The positive trend in the service business is continuing.
  • Growth in APAC was mainly related to the installation of large sterilization systems.
  • Sales of capital goods were negatively affected by the continuing shortage of components.
  • Recurring revenue declined as a result of lower volumes of consumables related to the production of COVID-19 vaccines.
  • The adjusted gross margin fell by 4.2 percentage points mainly as a result of an unfavorable product mix and greater pressure on costs as a result of supply chain challenges. Favorable currency effects contributed positively to the margin.
  • Adjusted operating expenses increased by 18.6% due to higher selling and administrative expenses related to, for example, establishing operations in Merrimack, US. Expenses increased organically by 14.0%.
  • An unfavorable mix contributed to adjusted EBITA declining by SEK 55 M year-on-year. The margin fell by 7.1 percentage points.
  • Currency effects impacted sales by SEK 89 M, adjusted gross profit by SEK 54 M and adjusted EBITA by SEK 45 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.

Order intake and net sales

  • The organic order intake declined, primarily due to lower activity in China that continued to experience COVID-19 restrictions.
  • EMEA also decreased due to challenging comparative figures last year. The positive trend in order growth in Americas is continuing.
  • Surgical Workflows considerably increased its net sales in OR products during the quarter. Infection Control also increased its sales, while sales for Digital Health Solutions declined.
  • Net sales in APAC fell as a result of lower activity in China related to continuing restrictions. The positive trend in Americas is continuing.
  • Net sales increased substantially in capital goods as a result of the strong order bookings mainly in OR products, despite a shortage of components.
  • The adjusted gross margin fell by 1.3 percentage points, primarily as a result of greater pressure on costs, which could be partly offset by continuing productivity improvements and favorable currency effects.
  • Adjusted operating expenses increased by 6.0%, mainly due to acquisitions and currency effects. These expenses fell organically by 6.3% despite a general increase in pressure on costs, which was offset by higher productivity and lower variable employee-related costs.
  • The higher sales volumes contributed to an increase of SEK 80 M in adjusted EBITA and an improvement of 3.0 percentage points in the margin.
  • Currency effects impacted sales by SEK 203 M, adjusted gross profit by SEK 90 M and adjusted EBITA by SEK 17 M.

Events in the business area

  • In July, Getinge completed the previously announced acquisition of 100% of the shares in FLUOPTICS SAS – a leader in fluorescence imaging as an aid to surgery.
  • A case study at SRH Klinikum Karlsbad-Langensteinbach in Germany revealed that the installation of Getinge's sterile reprocessing solutions has achieved time and cost savings as well as improved safety for patients and employees. For example, the reprocessing batch time for complex spinal surgery instruments decreased by 40% and water consumption went down significantly.

Other information

Russian invasion of Ukraine

Getinge conducts operations in Russia in accordance with international sanctions and regulations via a small sales company. The activities in the country are currently limited to fulfilling existing customer commitments and selectively participating in tender processes. Since Getinge's mission is to save lives irrespective of nationality and background, Getinge has decided not to fully withdraw from the Russian market. In 2021, sales in Russia and Ukraine represented about 1% of the Group's total net sales and equity represented less than 1% of the Group's equity.

Despite the limited direct impact that the invasion has had on the Group's operations in Russia and Ukraine, the Russian invasion of Ukraine may nevertheless have a negative impact on the development of the Group's earnings and position. It is not possible at the current time to assess the future consequences of the conflict and its impact on the Group. However, Getinge does not conduct any manufacturing operations in neither Russia nor Ukraine and has no major suppliers in these countries. A potential negative effect is that the supply of natural gas at the Group's plants in Poland and Germany may be affected, and mitigating measures have been taken to alleviate the effects of such a situation.

New member of Getinge Executive Team

In September, Joanna Engelke was appointed new EVP Quality Compliance, Regulatory & Medical Affairs and member of the Getinge Executive Team. She took up the position on October 6, 2022. Joanna Engelke most recently held the position as Head of New Ventures and Chief Quality Officer for JUUL Labs. Prior to JUUL Labs, she held leading positions as Senior Vice President Global Quality & Regulatory Affairs at Boston Scientific Corporation, Managing Director at Holloran Consulting Group and Portfolio CEO, Biospecific at PureTech Ventures among others. Joanna brings broad and solid experience from areas of regulatory healthcare in international companies.

In the previous interim report, Getinge announced that Agneta Palmér has been appointed EVP Operational Services and member of Getinge Executive Team. The newly established function covers Group Purchasing, Logistics, IT and Academy and has been established to further strengthen the competitiveness of Getinge. She took up her position on September 15, 2022.

Events after the end of the reporting period

On October 14, Getinge announced information regarding changes to the employee representatives on Getinge's Board of Directors: Ida Gustafsson will be the new Deputy Board member appointed by the employee organizations, Peter Jörmalm will step down from the Board, and Åke Larsson, who was previously the Deputy Board member appointed by the employee organizations, was appointed a regular Board member.

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 recurring revenue 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

Risk management

Getinge's primary risks

Description Potential consequences Management
New competitors
and new
technology
Certain markets and product
segments have niche players who
offer solutions outside customary
market behavior.
These competitors could capture
market shares from more established
companies such as Getinge, resulting in
a negative effect on Getinge's sales and
earnings.
Getinge's long-term strategy includes active business intelligence of the competitive
landscape to react to this type of competitor. The industry is also considered to have
high barriers to entry since medical devices are subject to extensive regulatory
requirements.
External shocks,
such as geopolitical
risks, natural
disasters,
terrorism,
pandemics, etc.
These are often quickly escalating
situations that affect large parts of
the world, a country, a region or a
specific site.
The primary consequence of this type of
risk is that employees could be injured.
There is also the risk of business
interruptions that could have a negative
impact on sales and earnings.
Active business intelligence can detect some of these risks at an early stage and the
Group will then have the chance to adapt to the new situation. A process to further
enhance the Group's work on continuity risks was started in 2021. As part of this
process, scenarios based on external shocks will also be included in the risks that
Getinge proactively works on. During the year, parts of the Chinese market went into
lockdown as a result of new outbreaks of COVID-19, which caused certain delivery
disruptions. It cannot be ruled out that prolonged or new lockdowns resulting from
COVID-19 will delay deliveries and invoicing to customers, primarily in the Chinese
market. On February 24, Russia invaded Ukraine. In financial terms, the invasion may
have a negative impact on the development of the Group's earnings and position. It
is not possible at the current time to assess the direct consequences. A potential
indirect negative effect is that the supply of natural gas to the Group's plants in
Poland and Germany may be affected. As a result, Getinge has taken mitigating
measures.
Quality risks from a
regulatory
perspective
Significant parts of Getinge's product
range are covered by legislation
stipulating extensive 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 Compliance,
Regulatory & Medical Affairs function has a representative in the Getinge Executive
Team and also a representative on the management teams of each business area,
and the function is represented in all R&D and production units. In addition,
Getinge's sales force and service technicians receive relevant quality and regulatory
training every other year to renew their certification. This is a requirement for
representing Getinge. 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. In total, the Group allocates significant resources to
quality and regulatory matters in order to best manage this risk exposure, and
quality is the overall priority in the Group's strategy. During the second quarter, an
internal investigation was completed related to potential violations of German
medical device laws associated with sterile packaging of HLS Sets, for which a total
of five current and former Getinge employees are being investigated by the
prosecution authority in Baden-Baden, Germany. As a consequence, structural
changes are being made to strengthen the culture of quality in the organization.
Comprehensive remediation measures regarding packaging have already been
initiated. At this stage, it is not possible to estimate whether the final outcome of the
public investigation will have any impact on Getinge.
Product quality
from a customer
perspective
In certain cases, Getinge's products
do not meet customer expectations.
Customers experiencing shortcomings
in Getinge's product quality could chose
other suppliers. This could entail a risk
of lower sales and lower profitability
over time.
Getinge applies a far-reaching quality process that aims to ensure a high and even
level of quality to meet customers' legitimately high requirements. This is an ongoing
process that results in continuous improvements. When quality fails, it is important
to rapidly bring the right equipment on site to rectify the fault during the first service
visit. Getinge closely monitors the "first time fix" factor of its services operations and
works extensively to make improvements related to such faults or shortcomings.
Laws and
regulations mainly
on business ethics
Contraventions of competition law,
anti-corruption, data privacy (GDPR)
or trade restrictions.
Could lead to fines or penalties in one or
more markets and have a negative
impact on the Getinge brand.
Getinge has previously provided information about ongoing investigations and
agreements with the authorities regarding anti-competitive procedures in the sale of
medical devices in Brazil. It cannot be ruled out that any further agreements with
authorities may have a material impact on the company's financial earnings and
position. Getinge has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to contraventions of
these regulations. The Group's Code of Conduct is very clear in this respect. The
Ethics & Compliance corporate function was expanded during the year and the head
of the department has been a member of the Getinge Executive Team since 2020 to
further demonstrate how highly the organization prioritizes these issues. A
comprehensive training program in business ethics is provided on an ongoing basis
and the aim is for all employees to take the course at least once a year. Getinge's
business ethics regulations also apply to external distributors who sell Getinge's
products in a large number of countries in which the Group does not have its own
presence.
Digitization and
innovation
Getinge's future growth depends on
the company's ability to develop new
and successful products, particularly
in the area of digitization. Getinge's
ability to innovate is a very important
factor in retaining and establishing
leading positions for the Group's
product segments.
Innovation efforts are costly and it is not
possible to guarantee that developed
products will be commercially
successful, which could result in
impairment. In the long term, the
Group's position in the market could be
negatively affected if Getinge is
unsuccessful in this area.
As a means of maximizing the return on investments in research and development,
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.
The Group is particularly concerned with ensuring access to the right skills, retaining
key individuals, being an attractive employer to recruit talent externally, and
identifying and developing talent within the organization.

Other risks of major importance

Description Potential consequences Management
Risks related to
health care
reimbursement
systems
Political decisions can change the
conditions for health care through
changed reimbursement models for
health care providers.
Changes to the health care
reimbursement system can have a
major impact on individual markets by
reducing or deferring grants.
It is difficult to influence this risk since these decisions are outside the Group's
control but the risk is limited by Getinge being active in a large number of
geographical markets.
Product liability
risks
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
carries the customary indemnity and
product liability insurance, but there is a
risk that this insurance coverage may
not fully cover product liability and
other claims.
The best way of managing these risks is the extensive quality-related and regulatory
activities performed by the Group. Sources of potential future claims for damages
are monitored through active incident reporting. Corrective and protective action
(CAPA) is initiated when necessary to investigate the underlying cause, after which
the product design may be corrected to remedy the fault. Settlement regarding
surgical mesh implants, which Getinge previously announced, is expected to be
finalized and payments in 2023 as requested by representatives of the
counterparties.
Risks related to
intellectual
property rights
Getinge's leading positions in many of
the Group's product segments are
based on patent and trademark
rights. These rights could lead to
disputes with competitors.
Getinge invests significant resources in
product development that results in
patent rights. There is a risk that the
Group will be involved in costly disputes
concerning such rights and thus a risk
that invested resources will not
generate the expected return if such a
dispute is lost.
To secure returns on these investments, Getinge actively upholds its rights and
monitors competitors' activities closely. If required, Getinge will protect its
intellectual property rights through legal processes.
Financial risks Getinge is exposed to a number of
financial risks in its operations.
Financial risks principally pertain to
currency risks, interest-rate risks, and
credit and counterparty risks.
Fluctuations in exchange rates and
interest rates and changes in
counterparties' credit profiles could
adversely affect the Group's income
statement and balance sheet.
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 Note 28 of the Annual Report.
Information and
data security
Leaks of confidential information or
hacking into the Group's IT system
resulting in restricted availability or
interruptions of business-critical
systems.
Leaks of personal data could lead to
high fines. Hacking into IT systems
could lead to business interruptions. A
loss of sensitive information may
adversely affect confidence in the
company.
The Group's IT structure is considered to be decentralized, which reduces the
consequence of any unauthorized access. The Group improved user authentication
during the year to prevent hacking. This work will continue in the year ahead. The
Group also closely monitors critical systems to prevent hacking.
Deficiencies in
cyber security
Security deficiencies in the Group's
digital offering, such as connected
machines at customer sites and
stricter legal requirements for
processing personal data.
Restricted availability of equipment
delivered by Getinge to its customers,
which could result in interruptions to
the hospital operations and it not being
possible to offer patients sufficient care
in critical situations.
Getinge works diligently to ensure the integrity of its equipment that is connected to
the Internet. In-depth access testing and other measures are carried out before
these solutions are offered to the Group's customers.
Business
interruptions
Unforeseen and sudden events, such
as natural disasters, fires, etc. that
result in disruptions to production or
the supply chain.
Potential interruptions and higher costs
in the supply chain and production
could lead to more costly or delayed
deliveries or, in a worst case scenario,
non-delivery to Getinge's customers.
Such a situation risks negative
consequences for the Group's earnings.
In 2022, there is a risk of temporary business interruptions linked to a further
deterioration in the global availability of electronic components as a result of the
ongoing pandemic. The Group continuously works on claims prevention to ensure a
high level of availability and delivery reliability. External experts inspect the Group's
production units on a regular basis to identify and take action on potential
interruption risks, following a Group-wide standard. The process of further improving
the Group's business continuity will continue in 2022.
Profitability
dependent on
certain products
and markets
In certain cases, a relatively large
share of the total profitability of a
product is linked to shares in a
certain market.
The consequence of such a situation is
that profitability can be adversely
affected if sales volumes were to
decline due to a changed competitive
situation in the market.
Getinge works actively to monitor profitability per product and market in order to
ensure profitability over time. To reduce the sensitivity of profitability, the Group
actively works on ensuring that it has the right cost level in relation to the current
price levels in the market. Getinge also works actively to establish itself in new
markets.
Dependence on
external suppliers
External suppliers that deliver critical
components to the Group are a highly
important part of Getinge's
manufacturing process. Production
disruptions may arise if these
components are not supplied on
schedule.
One of the potential consequences of
this is that life saving equipment may
not be delivered to hospitals as required
for maintaining critical health care.
Getinge works actively to monitor critical deliveries. This process is initiated when
the partnership is established and is then continuously monitored. The purchasing
organization has tools for evaluating risk and for training in this area. The Group also
works on ensuring that it has adequate levels of critical components in stock, either
in its own operations or with the relevant supplier. Interruptions of critical deliveries
are also included in the general activities related to business continuity risks. Refer
to "Business interruptions" above.

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.

AUDITOR'S REPORT

INTERIM REPORT PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH IAS 34 AND CHAPTER 9 OF THE SWEDISH ANNUAL ACCOUNTS ACT

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Getinge AB (publ) as of 30 September 2022 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.

Acquisitions in 2022

Irasun and Fluoptics were acquired during the period. In addition, SEK 6 M was received as an adjustment of working capital related to the acquisition of Talis Clinical. The table above presents the fair value of acquired identifiable net assets, recognized goodwill and the impact on the Group's cash and cash equivalents.

Irasun

In January 2022, all of the participations in German development company Irasun GmbH, domiciled in Munich, were acquired. Irasun develops products for venous drainage and temperature control, which can be used in combination with heart lung machines and equipment for extracorporeal life support (ECLS). The products are not yet commercially available but in the long term are intended to strengthen the Group's offering in innovative solutions for surgical perfusion. The purchase price amounted to SEK 77 M, of which SEK 62 M pertained to goodwill that is attributable to strategic advantages in the form of growth opportunities and a broader product range. The costs of the acquisition amounted to SEK 2 M and were charged to earnings for 2021 and 2022. Following the acquisition, the company did not have any material impact on Getinge's sales or earnings. At the time of publication of this report, the acquisition analysis was still preliminary.

Fluoptics

In July 2022, 100% of the shares in FLUOPTICS SAS were acquired, a France-based leader in fluorescence imaging as an aid to surgery. The acquisition expands Getinge's customer offering in clinical decision support, enhancing safety and efficiency. Fluoptics has 24 employees and generated sales of SEK 40 M in 2021. The purchase price amounted to SEK 343 M, of which SEK 57 M comprised contingent purchase prices that may be paid in 2024 if specific regulatory approvals are obtained and certain financial targets achieved. The costs of the acquisition amounted to SEK 7 M and were charged to earnings. The goodwill that arose in connection with the acquisition amounted to SEK

211 M, and is primarily attributable to strategic advantages pertaining to new technology and sales-related synergies. The acquisition did not have any material impact on Getinge's sales or earnings in the current year. At the time of publication of this report, the acquisition analysis was preliminary.
