CEO LETTER

The second quarter of 2020 was dominated by the Corona Virus pandemic and the effects this had on Kongsberg Automotive ("KA") and the automotive industry.

Following the Corona related lock downs in various parts of China in Q1 2020, the rest of the world was hit hard by mostly government-imposed lock downs during Q2 2020. At one point during Q2 2020, most of the Kongsberg Automotive production facilities were closed, most of them because of lack of customer demand, not because of forced shutdowns. Only our Chinese production facilities were operating at near normal levels.

During the last weeks of Q1 2020, Kongsberg Automotive took quick action in order to counter what we saw as the likely outcome of the Corona Virus pandemic. This included: reductions in employment (discontinuing agency workers, furloughs, short-time work, "permitteringer") of more than ⅔ of our work force, stringent working capital measures including "crisis management" of material inflows from suppliers, and the internal development of market scenarios and financial models to estimate KA's liquidity needs. This was followed by action plans for the improvement of KA's liquidity consisting mainly of: 1) a capital increase: with MNOK 1,000 through a private placement and subsequent offering, 2) increasing the RCF from MEUR 50 to MEUR 70 and the utilization rate of our revolving credit facility (RCF) from 40% to 80% without subjecting KA to covenant testing leading to an increase in the liquidity of MEUR 36 and initiating a factoring program that would create a better balance between Accounts Payables and Receivables for up to MEUR 60. Items 1 and 2 were successfully completed during the second quarter of 2020, the factoring program is still under negotiations and we consider it as likely to take place. Note that the subsequent offering portion of the capital increase is a subsequent event having been completed towards the end of July.

Following these liquidity improvement measures, Kongsberg Automotive believes it is fully funded through 2021 under our current market assumptions. A second wave of the Corona Virus pandemic could of course impact this position. However, we believe we have significant buffers to cover for additional negative Corona Virus pandemic effects.

Compared to our competition, Kongsberg Automotive has acted faster and with larger measures than most of our competitors. This should improve our competitive positioning going forward. We have already seen some small effects of this as we have been able to pick up some smaller programs from competitors that have entered into financial difficulties following the outbreak of the Corona Virus pandemic.

From a market standpoint, the second quarter of 2020 will certainly go into the history as a very turbulent quarter. For April and May, we experienced year over year ("YOY") revenue declines outside of China of more than 75% and 67%, respectively. These effects were somewhat offset by revenue growth in China of almost 30% YOY for the same time period. For the month of June, the industry restarted sharply, and we experienced YOY revenue declines of 18% outside of China. All in all, KA's global revenues for Q2 2020 declined by 48% YOY. The non-automotive businesses fared somewhat better than the automotive businesses, mostly because these customers were less affected by lock downs.

To illustrate the sharp differences between the Chinese market and that of the rest of the world; in Q2 2019, China revenues accounted for around 10% of KA's revenues. In Q2 of 2020, the Chinese share of KA's revenues amounted to almost 24%. This was of course mainly driven by the remarkable recovery of the Chinese markets versus the strong decline in the rest of our end markets. KA's market share gains in China also contributed to this sharp change in geographical revenue distribution for KA in Q2 2020.

Since the end of Q2 2020, the market has continued its recovery, although the recovery is fragile. Especially in North America, where the recovery has been the strongest, most of the June and July production has served primarily to fill up dealer lots. Time will give us the answers to what the end market performance will be in both North America and Europe regarding vehicle sales to end customers. On the other hand, our order book continues to strengthen both from passenger car and heavy-duty OEMs. In total, this has led us to increase our expectations slightly for the remainder of FY 2020.

SECOND QUARTER 2020 AT GLANCE

• Revenues were negatively impacted by the effects of the Corona virus pandemic and amounted to MEUR 153.6 in the second quarter, MEUR 140.8 (-47.8%) below the second quarter last year, including negative currency translation effects of MEUR 3.9.
• Adjusted EBIT amounted to MEUR (33.5) in the second quarter, which was MEUR 53.9 below Q2 2019.
• Lifetime revenues business wins in the second quarter amounted to MEUR 160.0 (MEUR 43.0 in annualized revenue).
• The outbreak of Corona virus pandemic triggered impairment testing and resulted in the impairment charges of MEUR 82.7.
• The adjusted gearing ratio (NIBD/adj. EBITDA) deteriorated to 6.1 from 3.0 compared to Q2 2019.
• A private placement capital increase was completed in June 2020 with a net equity effect of MEUR 63.0.
• The company entered into a RCF amendment agreement that increased firstly the available RCF from MEUR 50.0 to MEUR 70.0 and secondly the utilization rate from 40% to 80% at quarter ends without triggering a covenant test.

REVENUES

Revenues for the Group amounted to MEUR 153.6 in the second quarter of 2020, MEUR 140.8 (-47.8%) below Q2 2019, including negative currency translation effects of MEUR 3.9. The decline in revenue in the current quarter was similar for all the operating segments: Interior, Powertrain & Chassis and Specialty Products.

In the Interior segment, which serves the passenger car end markets, revenues decreased by MEUR 36.9 (-48.9%) compared to the second quarter of 2019, including negative currency translation effects of MEUR 1.1. In nominal values, Interior Comfort System products suffered from the bigger decline in revenues than Light Duty Cables.

In the Powertrain & Chassis segment, which serves the passenger car and commercial vehicle end markets, revenues decreased by MEUR 57.3 (-49.5%) year over year, including negative currency translation effects of MEUR 1.5. The revenues in the passenger cars market declined by MEUR 35.0 in total, of which MEUR 24.7 was related to the revenues decline in Europe.

In the Specialty Products segment, which serves the passenger car, commercial vehicle end markets and general industrial customers, revenues decreased by MEUR 46.6 (-45.2%) compared to the same quarter in 2019, including negative currency translation effects of MEUR 1.3.

ADJUSTED EBIT / EBIT

Adjusted EBIT for the Group was negative MEUR (33.5) in the second quarter 2020, a decrease of MEUR 53.9 compared to last year. This was mainly driven by the sustained lower revenue levels due to the shutdowns caused by the outbreak of COVID-19.

Including restructuring cost of MEUR 0.3 and the impairment losses of MEUR 82.7, operating loss in Q2 2020 amounted to MEUR 116.5, compared to the operating profit of MEUR 19.2 in Q2 2019.

NET FINANCIAL ITEMS

Net financial items came to an expense of MEUR 6.6 in the second quarter of 2020, compared to an expense of MEUR 5.8 in the same period in 2019 (see Note 6).

The interest expenses remained at the same level as in Q2 2019 (MEUR 5.2 in Q2 2020 vs. MEUR 5.1 in Q2 2019). Other financial items were MEUR (1,5) compared to MEUR (0,2) in Q2 2019, partially offset by the positive development of unrealized FX effects (gain of MEUR 0.1 in Q2 2020 vs. loss of MEUR 0.5 in Q2 2019).

PROFIT BEFORE TAX / NET PROFIT

Loss before tax amounted to MEUR 123.1 in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of MEUR 136.6 compared to the profit in the same quarter of 2019. Net loss amounted to MEUR 116.7 as per Q2 2020, being a decline of MEUR 121.6 compared to the net profit of MEUR 4.9 in Q2 2019. Tax income in Q2 2020 was impacted by the permanent differences in relation to the impairment of Goodwill at MEUR 12.9 and the valuation allowances on deferred tax assets at MEUR 10.5.

CASH FLOW FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES

Cash from operating activities decreased by MEUR 9.1 in comparison with the second quarter last year. The change in net working capital amounted to MEUR 4.6 compared to a change of MEUR (4.3) in Q2 2019.

CASH FLOW USED BY INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Cash used by investing activities amounted to MEUR 8.2 in the second quarter of 2020. This reflects the reduced investments activity due to the Corona virus pandemic.

CASH FLOW FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES

Cash flow from financing activities was MEUR 36.8 in the second quarter, compared to MEUR 6.3 generated in the same quarter last year. The main change compared to Q2 2019 is the net proceeds received from the Private Placement capital increase at MEUR 63.0 which was partially offset by the repayment of the revolving facility of MEUR 20.0.

Total payments for interest on lease liabilities were MEUR 1.3. The repayment of lease liabilities amounted to MEUR 3.1 in Q2 2020.

CHANGE IN CASH

Cash increased by MEUR 28.9 during the second quarter, resulting in a cash position of MEUR 56.3 at the end of the quarter, compared to the balance at the end of last year of MEUR 25.2.

Without the net proceeds from capital increase in June 2020 of MEUR 63.0 and excluding the repayment of the RCF at MEUR 20.0, the change in cash would have amounted to MEUR (14.0) (including the currency effects on cash).

LIQUIDITY RESERVE

The liquidity reserve was MEUR 125.9 (excluding the restricted cash of MEUR 0.4) at the end of the second quarter, compared to MEUR 64.4 at year-end 2019. The unutilized RCF as at June 30, 2020 amounted to MEUR 70.0.

ASSETS

Total assets were MEUR 767.4 at the end of the second quarter, a decrease of MEUR 159.5 from year-end 2019. The decrease of the value of total assets as of June 30, 2020 is mainly driven by the impairment losses of MEUR 82.7 in Q2 2020 triggered by the outbreak of the Corona virus pandemic. In addition to that, the accounts receivable was reduced by MEUR 75.6 compared to Q2 2019 and the inventory by MEUR 29.5 (including the inventory write-down in Q2 2020 by MEUR 9.5).

EQUITY

Equity as of June 30, 2020 decreased by MEUR 74.5 (-26.3%) to MEUR 208.5 in comparison with December 31, 2019.

The following movements contributed to the change of the equity as of June 30, 2020:

• Net loss for the year of MEUR 128.8, mainly driven by the impairment losses of MEUR 82.7 booked in Q2 2020. The other comprehensive income contributed another negative MEUR 9.1 to that decrease,
• Successful completion of the Private Placement capital increase of in aggregate NOK 700.000.000 (MEUR 63.0 net of transaction fees).

The equity ratio decreased by 3.4 percentage points to 27.2%.

INTEREST BEARING LIABILITIES

Interest-bearing liabilities amounted to MEUR 372.7 comprising the issued bond of MEUR 275.0, netted by the capitalized fees of MEUR 5.4 and IFRS 16 lease interest-bearing liabilities of MEUR 101.8.

As at June 30, 2020, long-term interest-bearing debt amounted to MEUR 359.6 after netting of MEUR 5.4 capitalized arrangements fees.

NET INTEREST BEARING DEBT

At the end of the second quarter 2020, net interest-bearing debt amounted to MEUR 316.3, a decrease of MEUR 45.0 compared to year-end 2019, mainly driven by the increase of cash balances as of June 30, 2020.

FINANCIAL UPDATE

Revenues in interior decreased by MEUR 36.9 (-48.9%) compared to the second quarter 2019, including negative currency translation effects of MEUR 1.1. Interior Comfort System suffered from the bigger decline in revenues than Light Duty Cables. With a significant share of the business in Europe and the United States, customer shutdowns in these regions and implemented lockdown measures contributed the most to the unfavorable revenue development.

COMMERCIAL AND OPERATIONAL UPDATE The general customer activity to award new businesses was very

low in Q2. Hence, contracts of the value of MEUR 3.0 in expected lifetime revenues were awarded. These relate to the supply of actuation cables to a major premium French car maker and a major Chinese car maker.

Adjusted EBIT was MEUR (12.0) in the second quarter, a decrease of MEUR 14.4 compared to the positive adjusted EBIT in Q2 last year. Adj. EBIT is in line with the reduced sales level. Moreover, adj. EBIT in Q2 2020 was negatively impacted by expense of customer development projects of MEUR 1.4 and inventory write-down of MEUR 2.2.

The revenues in the heavy-duty market declined by MEUR 20.9 in total, of which MEUR 12.6 was related to the revenues decline in Europe. P&C experienced the largest revenue decline in Europe and North America due to plant shutdowns at our major customers.

Adjusted EBIT was MEUR (11.8) in the second quarter 2020, a decrease of MEUR 17.4 compared to the positive adjusted EBIT in Q2 last year.

Adjusted EBIT is in line with the reduced sales level. Variable and fixed costs have been strictly controlled in order to reflect the reduced sales level in Q2 2020.

Moreover, adj. EBIT in Q2 2020 was negatively impacted by the inventory write-down of MEUR 2.8.

FINANCIAL UPDATE

Revenues in Specialty Products decreased by MEUR 46.6 (-45.2%) compared to the second quarter of 2019, including negative currency translation effects of MEUR 1.3. The revenue declines in this segment were driven by the automotive business operations, as well as non-automotive business. However, the latter were more impacted by governmental lock downs rather than a decline market demand.

Adjusted EBIT was MEUR (3.2) in the second quarter, a decrease of MEUR 19.3 compared to last year. The YoY decline in Adj. EBIT was in line with the expected fall through caused by the revenue decline.

Moreover, adj. EBIT in Q2 2020 was negatively impacted by the inventory write-down of MEUR 5.2.

COMMERCIAL AND OPERATIONAL UPDATE

During the second quarter 2020, total business wins amounted to MEUR 128.0 in lifetime revenue (MEUR 29.0 in annualized revenue).

The new business wins included Couplings projects to a premium European OEM. These programs account for approximately MEUR 12.5 in annualized revenues, or MEUR 86.0 in expected lifetime revenues as the average program length is approximately seven years.

NOTE 1 – DISCLOSURES

GENERAL INFORMATION

Kongsberg Automotive ASA and its subsidiaries develop, manufacture and sell products to the automotive and commercial vehicle industry globally. Kongsberg Automotive ASA is a limited liability company, which is listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange. The consolidated interim financial statements are not audited.

BASIS OF PREPARATION

This condensed consolidated interim financial information, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim financial reporting". The condensed consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year-ended December 31, 2019, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year-ended December 31, 2019, as described in those annual financial statements. Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using the estimated effective tax rate.

RISK AND UNCERTAINTIES

Kongsberg Automotive continuously monitors its risk factors. Our activities are exposed to different types of risk.

The single most important risk that Kongsberg Automotive is exposed to is the development of demand in the end markets for light duty and commercial vehicles worldwide. Some of the most important additional risk factors are foreign-exchange rates, raw material prices, credit risks, and an increasing tariffs risk. As we operate in many countries, we are vulnerable to currency risk. The most significant currency exposure for Kongsberg Automotive is associated with EUR, NOK and USD exchange rate. The greatest raw material exposures are for copper, zinc, aluminum and steel. As most of our revenues are earned from automotive OEMs and automotive Tier 1 and Tier 2 customers, the financial health of these automotive companies is critical to our credit risk.

All concerned risk factors that Kongsberg Automotive must face in its normal business operations are additionally impacted by the COVID-19 since the World Health Organization declared coronavirus and COVID-19 a global health emergency on 30 January 2020. Since then, Kongsberg Automotive has experienced significant disruption to its operations in the following respects:

• The closures of many plants worldwide in Q2 2020 (except for the ones located in China) due to the local governments mandating the "non-essential" businesses cease normal operations,
• Disruptions in the supply of inventory from major suppliers,
• Decreased demand for certain products as a consequence of the lockdown measures,
• Significant uncertainty concerning when government lockdowns will be lifted, social distancing requirements will be eased and the long-term effects of the pandemic on the demand for Kongsberg Automotive's products.

In response to the unprecedented situation, KA has completed successfully Private Placement capital increase of in aggregate NOK 700,000,000 (MEUR 63.0 net of transaction fees) and renegotiated the Company's RCF terms (i.a. increase of the credit facility by MEUR 20.0 and increase of the utilization rate from 40% to 80%). It allows to assume that the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and to sustain the assets' values has been maintained.

SEASONALITY

The Group quarterly results are to some extent influenced by seasonality. The seasonality is mainly driven by the vacation period in the third quarter and December each year having lower sales. Also, year-over-year seasonality differences may occur as a result of varying number of working days in each quarter.

NOTE 4 –IMPAIRMENT LOSSES

Because of COVID-19, the Group's Management performed the impairment testing in Q2 2020 for cash generating units (CGUs) that exhibit indicators of impairment as at the period end and to determine the amount of goodwill impairment attributable to the cash generating units.

The Group used the cash-generating unit's value-in-use to determine the recoverable amount. The projected cash flows were updated to reflect the decreased demand for products and services. Cash flows beyond the three-year period have been extrapolated using a 2.0% growth rate. All other assumptions remained consistent with those disclosed in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

The discount rate has been adjusted to reflect the current market assessment of the risks specific to the Group's business activity and was estimated based on the weighted average cost of capital for the Group. Further changes to the discount rate may be necessary in the future to reflect changing risks for the industry and changes to the weighted average cost of capital.

ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES (APM)

This section describes the non-GAAP financial measures that are used in this report and in the quarterly presentation.

The following measures are neither defined nor specified in the applicable financial reporting framework of the IFRS GAAP. They may be considered as non-GAAP financial measures that may include or exclude amounts that are calculated and presented according to the IFRS GAAP.

• Operating profit EBIT/Adjusted EBIT
• EBITDA/Adjusted EBITDA
• Restructuring per segment
• Free cash flow
• NIBD
• Capital employed
• ROCE (last twelve months)

OPERATING PROFIT - EBIT/ADJUSTED EBIT

EBIT, earnings before interest and tax, is defined as the earnings excluding the effects of how the operations were financed, taxed and excluding foreign exchange gains & losses. Adjusted EBIT is defined as EBIT excluding impairment losses and restructuring items, which are defined as any incurred costs or sales reduction of an unusual or non-recurring nature in connection with the considered restructuring of the activities of the Group.

(MEUR)	Q2 2020	Q2 2019	YTD 2020	YTD 2019	FY 2019

Adjusted EBIT1+2+3	(33.5)	20.4	(25.7)	41.9	70.9

EBITDA/ADJUSTED EBITDA

EBITDA is defined as EBIT (previously defined) before depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is therefore EBITDA excluding restructuring items and impairment losses.

EBITDA is used as an additional measure of the Group's operational profitability, excluding the impact from depreciation and amortization.

FREE CASH FLOW

Free cash flow is measured based on cash flow from operations, investments and financing excluding debt drawn and paid.

Free Cash Flow is used to measure the Group's ability to generate cash. It allows the Group to view how much cash it generates from its operations after subtracting the cash flow from investing and financing activities excluding debt repayments. The Group considers that this measurement illustrates the amount of cash the Group has at its disposal to pursue additional investments or to repay debt.

NIBD

Net Interest-Bearing Debt (NIBD) consists of interest-bearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents.

The Group risk of default and financial strength is measured by the net interest-bearing debt. It shows the Group's financial position and leverage. As cash and cash equivalents can be used to repay debt, this measurement shows the net overall financial position of the Group.

ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES (APM)

CAPITAL EMPLOYED

Capital Employed is equal to operating assets less operating liabilities. Operating assets and liabilities are items, which are involved in the process of producing and selling goods and services. Long-term financial assets and obligations are excluded, as those are involved in raising cash for operations and disbursing excess cash from operations.

Capital Employed is measured in order to assess how much capital is needed for the operations/business to function and evaluate if the capital employed can be utilized more efficiently and/or if operations should be discontinued.

(MEUR)	30.06.20	30.06.19	31.12.19

Current liabilities	(155.9)	(256.6)	(237.9)
Capital employed	650.8	635.8	645.6

Capital Employed as at June 30, 2020, does not include the assets' impairment of MEUR 82.7.

ADJUSTED ROCE (LAST TWELVE MONTHS)

Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) is based on EBIT for the last twelve months divided by the average of capital employed at the beginning and end of the period.

Return on Capital Employed is used to measure the return on the capital employed without taking into consideration the way the operations and assets are financed during the period under review. The Group considers this ratio as appropriate to measure the return of the period.
