Interim report

April – June 2023

Comments from Mattias Perjos, CEO

Growth overshadowed by challenges in two product categories

"Getinge's sales increased organically by 1.3% during the quarter, due to the positive performance of Surgical Workflows, while the order intake fell by 4.5%. Most of the operations in Acute Care Therapies performed positively, but quality and supply challenges in the product categories of Cardiac Assist and Cardiopulmonary impacted adjusted EBITA by approximately SEK -400 M, which we announced in June. This is a top priority, and we are starting to see positive effects from the hard work. The CE certificate for our aortic balloon pump was reinstated in mid-July. In addition, we have received an extended exemption in Germany that allows us to continue to deliver our unique HLS/PLS sets for ECMO treatment without CE marking, and from the middle of the third quarter, we will start to scale up deliveries of our intra-aortic balloon catheter – one of the products that has had noticeably negative impact on sales and earnings in the quarter.

Sales for Surgical Workflows remained positive, while order intake was slightly lower following a period of robust performance. Life Science grew in its offering to traditional pharma but persisting soft demand in the biopharma segment impacted sales and the adjusted EBITA margin negatively for the business area.

The Group's sales, margins and cash flow were negatively impacted by challenges in Acute Care Therapies, an unfavorable product mix and inflation that particularly affected Surgical Workflows and large parts of Life Science. We intensify our efforts to make operations more costeffective, not least in purchasing where we see good opportunities for improvement.

Our efforts to create increased value for our customers continue. As an example, a study of the implementation of Getinge's planning tool, Torin OR Management, at Klinikum Stuttgart shows that the utilization ratio in the operating rooms increased by 6%. Such an increase is significant since the operating room is the economic engine of the hospital. In the quarter we signed an agreement to acquire High Purity New England, Inc. which has a strong position in single-use solutions for bioprocessing applications. After the end of the quarter, we received FDA 510(k) approval for the ICU ventilator Servo-air® Lite.

I look forward to the quarters ahead, focusing on acting on the challenges in Acute Care Therapies, improving productivity and creating more value for our customers in their work to deliver more and better care to more patients."

January – June 2023 in brief

  • Net sales increased organically by 4.3% and the order intake declined by 0.9% organically.
  • Adjusted gross profit amounted to SEK 7,047 M (6,616) and the margin was 49.2% (51.5).
  • Adjusted EBITA amounted to SEK 1,467 M (1,794) and the margin was 10.2% (14.0).
  • Adjusted earnings per share amounted to SEK 3.43 (4.45).
  • Free cash flow amounted to SEK -424 M (549).

  • The lower organic order intake in Acute Care Therapies was mainly due to temporary quality and supply challenges in Cardiac Assist and a lower order intake in Critical Care. Cardiopulmonary order intake was unchanged despite challenges related to packaging. China declined significantly in the quarter in Cardiac Assist and Cardiopulmonary.

  • The lower organic order intake in Life Science was mainly the result of a weaker trend in washerdisinfectors and continuing soft demand in the biopharma segment. The performance in China was particularly weak in the quarter.
  • The order intake for Surgical Workflows declined organically in steam sterilizers and washerdisinfectors, but increased slightly for other products.
  • Organic net sales for Acute Care Therapies increased in all key product categories except for Cardiac Assist and Cardiopulmonary, which were impacted by the previously announced quality and supply challenges. The decline in China was significant. Net sales for all other product categories increased.
  • A slight organic increase was noted in net sales for Life Science as a result of the strong performance in systems for steam sterilizers and washer-disinfectors. Net sales in products for customers in the biopharma segment continued to decline, with palpable decline in China.
  • Surgical Workflows increased its net sales organically in all product categories and grew substantially in North America. The improved situation regarding the supply of components also contributed positively to sales and the backlog reduced considerably.
  • The strong trend in Surgical Workflows contributed to the yearon-year organic increase in net sales in capital goods.
  • Net sales increased by SEK 506 M, corresponding to 7.6%.
  • Net sales from acquisitions accounted for SEK 9 M or 0.1%.
  • Exchange rates had an impact of SEK 411 M on sales, corresponding to 6.2%.
  • Volume, mix and price affected sales by a net SEK 85 M, corresponding to 1.3%.

Net sales – bridge between Q2 2022 and Q2 2023

  • Currency effects impacted adjusted gross profit by SEK 182 M and adjusted EBITA by SEK 2 M during the quarter.
  • The gross margin fell as a result of lower volumes related to Cardiac Assist and Cardiopulmonary in Acute Care Therapies, and in products for customers in the biopharma segment in Life Science. This contributed to negative mix effects and low capacity utilization. The margin was also impacted negatively by inflation and currency effects. This was offset by price increases and activities to enhance productivity.
  • Adjusted operating expenses increased by 20.3%. The organic increase was 11.8%. (For more information, see page 4).
  • Adjusted EBITA declined by SEK 461 M compared with the year-earlier period and the margin fell by 7.4 percentage points.
  • Net financial items amounted to SEK -78 M mainly as a result of higher net debt and higher average interest rates.

Adjusted EBITA – bridge between Q2 2022 and Q2 2023

  • Acute Care Therapies' adjusted EBITA declined by SEK 347 M mainly due lower sales volumes in Cardiac Assist and Cardiopulmonary as well as inflation. Currency effects had a positive impact. The margin fell by 9.7 percentage points.
  • Life Science's adjusted EBITA declined by SEK 63 M mainly due to lower sales in products for the biopharma segment and negative currency effects, and the margin fell by 7.0 percentage points.
  • Surgical Workflows' adjusted EBITA fell by SEK 32 M due to product mix, higher inflation and negative currency effects. The margin fell by 2.2 percentage points.

  • Adjusted operating expenses increased by 20.3%, mainly due to negative currency effects and higher costs for purchases of services, salaries and variable remuneration, and higher costs for managing challenges in Cardiac Assist and Cardiopulmonary in Acute Care Therapies.

  • Operating expenses increased organically by 11.8%.
  • The negative effect of other operating income and expenses was mainly attributable to currency effects related to operating receivables and liabilities in foreign currency.
  • Exchange-rate fluctuations (translation and transaction effects) impacted adjusted gross profit by SEK 182 M compared with last year, of which SEK 197 M in translation effects and SEK -15 M in transaction effects and hedging outcome.
  • The change in adjusted EBITA related to currency effects is explained by translation effects of SEK 32 M and the net of transaction effects, hedging outcome and revaluation of operating receivables and liabilities in foreign currency of SEK -29 M.
  • Free cash flow was impacted by a lower operating profit for the quarter.
  • The change in working capital was mainly the result of lower accounts receivable and a slightly higher level of liabilities.
  • The financial position remains solid, with a low share of net interestbearing debt in relation to EBITDA.

Sustainability developments

Getinge's sustainability framework covers the focus areas of Quality Culture, Passionate Employees, Environmental & Social Engagement and Business Ethics & Responsible Leadership. The aim is to generate sustainable value for customers, employees and other stakeholders. At the Capital Markets Day in November 2021, targets were set for the four focus areas and Getinge reports on its quarterly performance in the relevant indicators presented below.

  • Key areas Quality Culture Passionate Employees The trend in the improved customer quality index was mainly due to the higher number of open complaints, and an increase in corrective measures compared with prior quarters. Carbon emissions, energy consumption and share of
  • renewable energy are continuing to perform in a positive direction due to ongoing improvements in the operations. Also in the quarter, one of the larger production units reported the purchase of international renewable energy certificate (iREC) for all of 2023. Under the GHG Protocol and SBTi, iRECs can be used to reduce the amount of carbon emissions, which means that this can also be included in reporting. As a result, the reported Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions and the share of renewable energy have changed significantly in the first half of 2023 compared with the same period last year.

Events in the business area in the quarter

  • A new Vice President was announced for the Cardiac Assist product category.
  • Transition to new EU MDR proceeding according to plan. During the quarter, MDR approval was granted for ProAQT in hemodynamic monitoring and for the Intergard Silver graft.
  • In June, Getinge informed about additional quality and supply challenges in Q2, specifically relating to products in Cardiac Assist and Cardiopulmonary. Getinge is actively working to resolve these challenges and estimates that they will be resolved toward the end of 2023/H1 2024, followed by an application for regulatory approval where necessary.
  • The lower organic order intake in Acute Care Therapies was mainly due to temporary quality and supply challenges in Cardiac Assist and a lower order intake in Critical Care.
  • The performance was particularly weak in China, while order intake in North America was strong in all product categories except Cardiac Assist.
  • Organic net sales for Acute Care Therapies increased in all key product categories except for Cardiac Assist and Cardiopulmonary, which were impacted by the previously announced quality and supply challenges. The development was markedly negative in China.
  • Net sales for all other product categories increased during the quarter.
  • Order bookings for deliveries in the current year are more than 20% higher than at the same time last year.
  • The adjusted gross margin declined by 3.8 percentage points mainly due to lower sales volumes related to Cardiac Assist and Cardiopulmonary. The margin was also impacted by costs for an increased level of scrapping of HLS/PLS-sets being damaged during transport, as well as higher costs for input materials and personnel. This was offset by positive currency effects, price increases, a strong development in for example Critical Care, and continuing productivity enhancements.
  • Adjusted operating expenses increased by 18.3% as a result of negative currency effects and increased operating expenses to manage the challenges in Cardiopulmonary and Cardiac Assist as well as higher costs for purchases of services, salaries and variable remuneration. Adjusted operating expenses increased organically by 10.8%.
  • Lower adjusted gross profit and increased operating expenses contributed to a decline of SEK 347 M in adjusted EBITA compared with last year. The margin declined by 9.7 percentage points.
  • Currency effects impacted sales by SEK 199, adjusted gross profit by SEK 125 M and adjusted EBITA by SEK 26 M.

Events in the business area in the quarter

The implementation of Getinge's planning tool solution, Torin OR Management, at Klinikum Stuttgart, Germany, confirms that Getinge's products help boost productivity. The study showed that the percentage of correctly planned operations increased by 39% and OR utilization was 6% more effective during the hours they were primarily in use.

  • The order intake for Surgical Workflows declined organically in steam sterilizers and washerdisinfectors but increased slightly for other products.
  • The order intake was unchanged in the important North American market, despite highly challenging comparative figures.
  • Surgical Workflows increased its net sales organically in all product categories and grew substantially in North America, which is in line with the business area's long-term ambition.
  • The improved situation regarding the supply of components also contributed positively to sales of capital goods for the quarter and the backlog reduced considerably. Recurring revenue also increased organically, although not to the same extent.
  • The adjusted gross margin fell by 3.6 percentage points primarily as a result of higher costs for input goods and personnel, and negative currency effects. This was offset by higher sales volumes, price increases and productivity improvements.
  • Adjusted operating expenses increased by 19.0%, mainly due to acquisitions and currency effects as well as a higher level of activity in sales and higher costs for purchases of services, salaries and variable remuneration. Organically these expenses increased by 9.7%.
  • Adjusted EBITA declined by SEK 32 M and the margin declined by 2.2 percentage points.
  • Currency effects impacted sales by SEK 134 M, adjusted gross profit by SEK 43 M and adjusted EBITA by SEK -7 M.

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. However, the circumstances for conducting operations in the country have gradually deteriorated. Getinge does not conduct any manufacturing operations in either Russia or Ukraine and has no major suppliers in these countries. The Group's sales in Russia and Ukraine in 2022 represented less than 1% of the Group's total net sales and equity. Despite the limited direct impact that the invasion has had on Getinge'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. However, it is difficult at the current time to assess the future consequences of the conflict and its impact on the Group.

Events after the end of the reporting period

US FDA 510(k) clearance for Servo-air® Lite

After the end of the period, Getinge was granted 510(k) clearance from the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) for Servo-air® Lite. Like all Servo ventilators, it offers ICU-quality ventilation but is more geared towards spontaneously breathing patients in need of extra breathing support. With its powerful turbine and long-lasting battery backup power, it can also be operated independent of wall gas and is suitable for intrahospital transports. Servo-air Lite is expected to be available for customers in the US from September 2023.

CE-certificate reinstated for Cardiosave

The notified body for certification services, TÜV SÜD, has decided to reinstate the CE-certificate for Getinge's Intra-Aortic Balloon pump Cardiosave. On March 27, 2023, Getinge announced that the notified body, TÜV SÜD, had issued an immediate suspension of the CE certificate for intra-aortic balloon pumps for up to three months. The suspension was based on concerns related to risk management, post market surveillance and vigilance, as well as information pertaining to timeliness of field safety corrective actions.

Extended use of Article 59 to deliver HLS/PLS

On March 31, 2023, the European Commission granted an exemption to supply the HLS/PLS ECMO products without a valid CE marking to the European market based on Art. 59 Point 3 (EU) 2017/745. This exemption will expire on 30 September 2023. To continue supporting customers with life-saving products, Getinge has applied for an extension of this exemption. On 11 July 2023, the German competent authority granted BfArM an extension of the national exemption until 31 July 2024. Following the extension of the BfArM, the European Commission may decide to extend this derogation to all European Member States. The Commission's decision has not yet been taken.

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

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.

  • Employee commitment >70%
  • CO2 neutral in own operations by 2025
  • All employees trained in business ethics and responsible leadership.

Risk management

Getinge's primary risks

Description Potential consequences Management
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 opportunity to adapt to the new situation. The
process of further enhancing the Group's work on continuity risks continue in
2022. As part of this process, scenarios based on external shocks will also be
included in the risks that Getinge proactively works on.
On February 24, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. The circumstances for conducting
operations in the country have gradually deteriorated and, in financial terms, the
continuing war may have a negative impact on the development of the Group's
earnings and position. However, it is not possible at the current time to assess the
direct long-term consequences.
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 of 2022, 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 and Getinge is fully cooperating
with the prosecution authority. At this stage, it is not possible to estimate whether
the final outcome of the public investigation will have any impact on Getinge.
As previously reported in the first quarter of 2023, the notifying body decided to
suspend the CE certificate for Getinge's HLS and PLS set for ECMO therapy and
for Getinge's intra-aortic balloon pumps. As a result, the company initiated
corrective actions to regain the CE certificate for these products. On June 19,
2023, Getinge announced additional quality challenges related to both of these
products, which had a negative impact on sales and earnings for the quarter.
These challenges are expected to be handled by the end of 2023-H1 2024, followed
by an application for regulatory approval where necessary. However, unforeseen
events may impact the above-mentioned timelines.
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
choose 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.
Interruptions in
supply chains /
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 customers as
required for maintaining critical
healthcare.
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 an important part of activities related to business continuity
risks. See "Business interruptions" below.
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 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
controls. 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.
Fragmented
product portfolio
Getinge's product portfolio consists,
to a certain extent, of a large number
of acquisitions that were made
throughout the years within a variety
of product categories.
An offering to our customers that, in
certain parts, is too diverse could lead
to Getinge lacking the critical mass
needed to conduct fully efficiency
operations in all product categories.
Efforts are being made to enhance the efficiency of the customer offering under
the framework of the ongoing strategic activities in each business area. The
introduction of the new EU Medical Device Regulation means priorities need to be
made regarding the certification of products under the new regulatory framework.
Products have been selected that, over the long term, will be a part of the
customer offering, which will lead to increased concentration as well as
streamlining.

Other risks of major importance

Description Potential consequences Management
Risks related to
healthcare
reimbursement
systems
Political decisions can change the
conditions for healthcare through
changed reimbursement models for
healthcare providers.
Changes to the healthcare
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 markets.
Product liability risks Healthcare suppliers run a risk, like
other players in the healthcare
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 insurances, 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.
The settlement for surgical mesh implants, which Getinge announced previously,
has been completed and the majority of the settlement amount was paid in the
first quarter of 2023.
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 to be considered to be decentralized, which reduces the
consequence of any unauthorized access. The Group has 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. Comprehensive 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.
There is a risk of temporary business interruptions linked to a further deterioration
in access to key components such as semiconductors as a result of the pandemic
and uncertain global security situation. 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 2023.
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.
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 competitors. The industry is also
considered to have high barriers to entry since medical devices are subject to
extensive regulatory requirements.
Laws and
regulations
mainly on business
ethics
Breaches of competition law,
anti-corruption, data privacy (such as
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. This process continued in 2023 and is ongoing. It
cannot be ruled out that any further agreements with authorities may have a
material impact on the company's financial earnings and position, but it is not
currently possible to estimate the amount or date. 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 in recent years 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 undergo such training 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.

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.
