Comments by the President and CEO
» With Argentina as our base,
we see opportunities for further
acquisitions in the region.«
The first quarter was positive for Loomis both in terms of margin development and in terms of growth. The operating margin, which improved to 7.5 percent (7.1), is moving towards our next target: 10 percent by 2014, at the latest. As regards growth, real growth amounted to 9 percent (1) and organic growth, which was positive for the forth consecutive quarter, was 3 percent (0).
Considering growth, I can state that the general market conditions for cash handling services strengthened somewhat during the first quarter, both in Europe and in the USA. One of the reasons for this improvement is that the amount of cash in circulation continues to increase in most of the countries in which we operate. This information is also supported by new statistics for 2011 published by the European Central Bank and the Federal Reserve. Organic growth, which amounted to 3 percent both in Europe and in the USA, was positively impacted by the continued improved pricing of our services. However, the considerable problems within the Spanish economy, particularly within the banking sector, negatively impacted growth during the quarter.
Operating income, EBITA, increased by MSEK 33 to MSEK 212 (179), of which exchange rate effects comprised MSEK 4. This improvement is largely attributable to increased revenue, the positive earnings effect from the Pendum acquisition, as well as our continuous work with efficiency improvements. The number of branches achieving our profitability target continues to increase and was one percentage point higher during the quarter than during the equivalent period in 2011.
The operating margin in Europe increased to 8.8 percent (8.7). The positive margin development in the majority of the European countries was partly offset by certain non-recurring costs. The non-recurring costs, relating to restructuring, were taken in order to prevent future over-capacity. The overcapacity would have occurred during the latter part of the year due to parts of a few contracts, primarily within our Cash in Transit operations, were lost during the quarter. The lost volumes is a result of our efforts to avoid contracts with a low level of profitability.
In the USA, the operating margin improved to 8.0 percent (7.1), which is, primarily, an effect of the acquisition of Pendum. During 2011 and in the beginning of 2012, a substantial part of the management capacity in the USA has been focused on the Pendum integration. The positive earnings effect from Pendum experienced during the first quarter is in line with our previously stated expectations.
During the quarter, we have, in the USA, signed a strategically important contract with a nationwide retailer. The contract refers to just over 600 Loomis SafePoint® units which will be installed during 2012. The deposit service, Loomis SafePoint®, integrates our CIT and CMS services with secure safes for daily takings from retailers and other commercial enterprises.
In the beginning of April, we announced the acquisition of the Argentinean cash handling company, Vigencia. The acquisition is entirely in line with the acquisition strategy we presented at the end of 2010 and which included a presence in Latin America. With Argentina as our base, we see opportunities for further acquisitions in the region. Several of the markets in Latin America are experiencing rapid growth, have a low degree of outsourcing, while they, at the same time, are offering good margins. These are all important factors in order for the Group to achieve its desired level of organic growth and improved operating margin in the future.
To conclude, I feel confident in saying that the strong financial key ratios for the first quarter puts us in a strong position for the remainder of the year.

January – March 2012
Revenue in the first quarter amounted to MSEK 2,822 (2,526). Real growth was 9 percent (1) and is mainly attributable to the acquisitions conducted during 2011 in the USA and Turkey. Organic growth, which amounted to 3 percent (0), was positively impacted by a slight improvement of the conditions on the market and an improved pricing of our services. Despite a slight negative impact attributable to the ongoing structural changes in the Spanish banking sector, organic growth for segment Europe amounted to 3 percent (0). In the USA, organic growth was 3 percent (–1). Changes in fuel surcharges, which Loomis passes on to its customers, impacted organic growth in the USA by 1 percent but did not have a significant impact on the Group´s organic growth. Price increases as a percentage of revenue exceeded wage increases in percent.
Operating income (EBITA) amounted to MSEK 212 (179). The improvement of MSEK 33 includes positive exchange rate effects of MSEK 4. The primary reason for the improvement of the Group's operating margin to 7.5 percent (7.1), and the positive development of the margin in the USA to 8.0 percent (7.1), is the increased earnings impact from the operations acquired from Pendum. The continuous work to reduce costs and improve efficiency within the Group also contributed to the margin improvement. The operating margin in segment Europe, which was 8.8 percent (8.7), was positively impacted by the restructuring work in France. The restructuring work, which has been ongoing since 2010, continues to provide favorable results. The margin was, however, negatively impacted by certain non-recurring costs. The non-recurring costs, attributable to restructuring, were taken in order to prevent over-capacity later in the year due to parts of a few contracts, primarily within the Cash in Transit operations, were lost during the quarter.
Staff turnover within the Group remained at an acceptable level and amounted to 21 percent (20).
Operating income (EBIT) amounted to MSEK 201 (168), including acquisition-related costs of MSEK 5 (7).
Income before taxes of MSEK 190 (152) includes a financial net of MSEK –11, compared with MSEK –16 during the corresponding period in the previous year. The improvement to financial net can mainly be attributed to lower interest rates.
The total tax cost for the quarter was MSEK 57 (49), which is equivalent to a tax rate of 30 percent (32).

Revenue and operating income – Europe
January–March
Revenue in segment Europe amounted to MSEK 1,720 compared to MSEK 1,630 during the corresponding period in the previous year. Real growth amounted to 5 percent (1) and is, primarily, attributable to the acquisition conducted in Turkey during 2011. Organic growth, amounting to 3 percent (0), is a result of a somewhat more favorable situation on the market and a better pricing of our services. However, the positive development was partly offset by the ongoing structural changes in the Spanish banking sector.
Operating income (EBITA) amounted to MSEK 152 (141) and the operating margin was 8.8 percent (8.7). The restructuring work in France, which was initiated in the beginning of 2010 and is continuing, as well as the Group´s ongoing work to reduce costs and improve efficiency contributed to the positive development. However, operating income for the segment was negatively affected by non-recurring costs attributable to restructuring. The costs were taken in order to prevent overcapacity which would otherwise arise during the latter part of the year as a consequence of the fact that parts of a few contracts, primarily within the Cash in Transit operations, were lost during the quarter.
Revenue and operating income – USA January–March
Revenue in the USA amounted to MSEK 1,102 (896) for the period. The acquisition of Pendum's cash handling operations is the primary factor behind the real growth of 18 percent (1). Organic growth was 3 percent (–1), of which 1 percent is attributable to changes in fuel surcharges. Furthermore, organic growth was affected by the somewhat improved market conditions and a better pricing of our services.
Operating income (EBITA) amounted to MSEK 88 (63) and the operating margin increased to 8.0 percent, compared with 7.1 percent during the corresponding period in the previous year. The increase to the operating margin is largely attributable to the positive earings impact from the integration of the operations acquired from Pendum. The continuous work to reduce costs and improve efficiency will continue during 2012.

Cash flow January–March 2012
Cash flow from operating activities of MSEK 58 (77) corresponded to 27 percent (43) of operating income (EBITA). Net investments in fixed assets for the period amounted to MSEK 161 (116), which can be compared with depreciation of fixed assets of MSEK 173 (162). The increased level of investments is due to a more substantial investment requirement as a consequence of organic growth, upgrades of fixed assets in existing and in acquired operations and the expansion of Loomis SafePoint®. Investments in vehicles and security equipment, which comprise the two major categories of recurring maintenance investments, amounted to MSEK 55 (38).
Cash flow from acquisition of operations, which amounted to MSEK –203 (–7), is mainly related to the acquisitions of Efectivox in Spain and Oregon Armored Services in the USA.
Capital employed
Capital employed amounted to MSEK 5,859 (5,617 per December 31, 2011). The return on capital employed amounted to 16 percent (16 per December 31, 2011).
Shareholders' equity and financing
Shareholders' equity amounted to MSEK 3,446 (3,397 per December 31, 2011). The return on shareholders' equity was 16 percent (15 per December 31, 2011). The equity ratio was 37 percent (37 per December 31, 2011). Net debt amounted to MSEK 2,413 (2,220 per December 31, 2011).

Acquisitions during January – March 2012
In December 2011, it was announced that Loomis' Spanish subsidiary, Loomis Spain SA, had signed an agreement regarding the acquisition of the shares in the Spanish cash handling company, Efectivox. As a result of the structural changes within the Spanish banking sector in recent years, there is an increased demand for cash handling companies and banks to be able to operate on a nationwide basis. The acquisition will allow Loomis to offer cash handling services throughout the whole of the Spanish mainland. At the time of the announcement, the acquisition required the approval of the Spanish Competition Authority, which was received during February 2012. The acquired operations were taken over on March 14, 2012. As a consequence of the acquistion a review of the organizational structure will be conducted.
In December 2011, it was announced that Loomis' US subsidiary had signed an agreement regarding the acquisition of the shares in Oregon Armored Service Inc. This acquisition will further strengthen Loomis' presence on the market in Oregon. The acquired operations were taken over on December 31, 2011.
In April 2012, it was announced that Loomis signed an agreement regarding the acquisition of the Argentinean cash handling company, Vigencia. Vigencia, which conducts operations primarily in the Buenos Aires region, has annual revenue of MSEK 60 and has approximately 190 employees. The acquired operations are consolidated as of April 1, 2012 and will be reported in segment Europe. The preparation of the acquisition analysis is in progress.
Significant events and number of full-time employees
Significant events during the period
In accordance with the decision taken in July 2011 by the Board of Directors of Loomis AB, on the basis of the authorization resolved upon by the Annual General Meeting in 2011, Loomis AB repurchased 57,876 Class B shares during the period March 28-30, 2012. The repurchased shares refer to a proportion of the shares that may be allotted, at a later date, to the participants of the Incentive Scheme 2011. As of March 31, 2012 the Company had 111,113 shares in own custody.
Significant events after the end of the period
On April 2, 2012, Loomis AB repurchased 17,205 Class B shares, which may be allotted to the participants in the Incentive Scheme 2011. After the repurchase, Loomis AB has 128,318 shares in own custody.
In April 2012, the Board of Directors of Loomis AB decided to propose to the Annual General Meeting 2012 to resolve on an incentive scheme (Incentive Scheme 2012) which corresponds to the incentive scheme adopted by the Annual General Meeting in 2011. In accordance with the existing incentive scheme, the proposed incentive scheme will entail that two thirds of the variable remuneration are being paid out in cash during the year after the bonus was earned. For the remaining third, Loomis AB repurchases shares that will be allotted to the employees on June 30, 2014 at the latest.
Number of full-time employees
The average number of full-time employees during 2011 was 19,511 and, for the rolling twelve month period, the number of full-time employees was 19,358. Ongoing cost saving programs have, primarily, reduced the number of overtime hours and extra employees, but have also included a reduction in the number of regular employees.
Risks and uncertainties
Operational risks
Operational risks are risks associated with the day-to-day operations and the services offered by the Company to its customers. These risks can result in negative consequences when the services performed do not meet the established requirements and result in loss of or damage to property or personal injury. Loomis' strategy for operational risk management is based on two fundamental principles:
- No loss of life.
- Balance between profitability and risk of theft and robbery.
Although the risk of robbery is unavoidable in cash handling, Loomis continually endeavors to minimize this risk. The most vulnerable situations are at the roadside, in the vehicles and during counting.
Loomis' operations are insured, implying that the maximum cost of each theft or robbery incident is limited to the deductible amount, as stipulated in the insurance cover.
The Parent Company, Loomis AB, is deemed not to have any significant operational risks, as the Company does not engage in operations, other than the conventional control of subsidiaries and the management of certain Group matters.
The major risks deemed to apply to the Parent Company refer to fluctuations in exchange rates, particularly as regards USD and EUR, increased interest rates and the risk of possible write-down requirements.
Factors of uncertainty
Specific factors of uncertainty for 2012 are the integration of the operations acquired in Spain and Argentina during 2012, as well as the continued integration of the cash handling operations acquired in the USA and in Turkey during 2011 and the structural changes within the Spanish banking sector.
The economic trend during the first quarter of 2012 impacted certain countries and geographic markets negatively, and it cannot be ruled out that revenue and income may be impacted for the remainder of 2012.
Changes in general economic conditions can have various effects on the market for cash handling services, such as changes in the consumption level, the proportion of cash purchases compared with credit card purchases, the risk of robbery and bad debt losses as well as the rate of staff turnover.
Seasonal variations
The Company's earnings fluctuate across the seasons, which should be taken into consideration when making assessments on the basis of interim financial information. The primary reason for these seasonal variations is that the need for cash handling services increases during the vacation period, July – August, and during holidays at the end of the year, i.e. in November – December.
