Comments by the President and CEO

Organic growth and improved operating margins for all segments compared to the previous year.

It gives me great pleasure to present my first interim report as President and CEO of Loomis and to communicate that we had organic growth and improved operating margins for all segments compared to the same quarter the previous year.

Organic growth for the second quarter amounted to 6 percent (1) , the highest organic growth for the Group as a whole since the listing on the stock exchange in 2008. The operating margin improved to 10.7 percent (10.1). Many factors have contributed to the positive development, including new cash-in-transit (CIT) and cash management services (CMS) contracts and a sustained focus on efficiency improvements. I would also like to highlight the continued success of SafePoint in the USA – a concept that contributes to both growth and margin improvement.

Organic growth in the USA, which amounted to 13 percent (5), is mainly driven by the implementation of the CMS contracts with Bank of America and by a sustained increase in the number of installed SafePoint units. At the end of the quarter there were around 17,200 installed units. Revenue for the quarter from Safe-Point was just over 22 percent higher than in the corresponding period the previous year.

The operating margin in the USA is still moving in a positive direction, reaching 11.2 percent (10.2) for the quarter. It is extra gratifying that we are improving our operating margin while also seeing strong growth. Just as in the previous quarters, the main explanations for the higher profitability are the sustained increase in the share of revenue from CMS and the ongoing efficiency improvement measures.

The organic growth in Europe amounted to 1 percent (1). Similar to the first quarter this year, positive growth in Spain is continuing and Turkey and Argentina are the countries currently experiencing the fastest growth. The operating margin in Europe was 12.9 percent, an improvement of 0.7 percentage points compared to the second quarter the previous year. Several of our European markets are presenting improved operating margins and I would like to specifically mention the UK. As a result of service quality improvements implemented, we are seeing sustained improvement in our operating margin. We believe that there is still potential for further profitability improvement within our UK operations. The trend noted earlier of slightly falling volumes in the Nordic countries is continuing and action programs are currently in place to compensate for the lower volumes.

During the quarter a referendum was held in the UK and in it a majority of voters voted to exit the EU. Loomis' operations in the UK are almost exclusively local. At this time we are not seeing any

significant effect on our business, although we are of course following the development closely. In terms of our international service offering, increased uncertainty could lead to higher demand for cross-border transportation of precious metals and other valuables. We have concluded, however, that it is not possible at this point to calculate the potential impact on our business.

International Services had slightly increased revenue and an improved operating margin during the quarter. Organic growth for this segment during the quarter amounted to 6 percent and the operating margin was 5.5 percent (4.7). Higher volatility in the precious metals market during the quarter had a positive impact on business volumes. The growing uncertainty in the international markets has also resulted in higher demand for cross-border transportation of banknotes. The increase is most evident in Central Europe and the Middle East.

On July 1 we announced the divestment of our general cargo operations, which we took over as part of the acquisition of VIA MAT in 2014. The divested operations, which are not part of Loomis' core business and which were transferred on July 1, 2016, offer cross-border cargo services by air, sea, road and rail. The general cargo operations have been reported as part of Segment International Services. In 2015 revenue from general cargo services amounted to around SEK 500 million and the operating result was around SEK 9 million. The divestment enables us to increase our focus on the segment's core business.

On May 4, I assumed my new role as successor to Lars Blecko, who has now returned to his position as Regional President USA. I would like to thank him for the work he has done and for the warm welcome I received – both from Lars Blecko and the Group in general. I have spent my first weeks traveling around meeting employees and customers in our various markets. I have become even more convinced that Loomis' strong foundation will serve us well as we seize future business opportunities.

My task is to continue along the path of success my predecessors embarked upon and to deliver on the financial goals we have set for 2017. I believe that in the second half of 2017, we will be well positioned to present the next stage of Loomis' development. I am highly optimistic about the years ahead and about being part of the team as we realize the Group's potential – in both the long and short term.

April – June 2016

Revenue for the second quarter amounted to SEK 4,147 million compared to SEK 3,944 million for the corresponding period the previous year. The organic growth, which was 6 percent (1), is mainly attributable to the cash management services (CMS) contracts that were implemented incrementally in the USA in 2015, higher SafePoint revenue and increased sales in a number of European countries. Real growth amounted to 8 percent (6) and includes revenue attributable to the acquisitions made in 2015 in the USA and the UK.

The operating income (EBITA) amounted to SEK 444 million (397) and the operating margin improved to 10.7 percent (10.1). At comparable exchange rates, the income improvement was around SEK 57 million. Strong organic growth in CMS and Safe-Point in the USA, and ongoing efforts to improve efficiency, which continue to yield results in a number of countries, are the main explanations for the increased profitability.

The operating income (EBIT) for the quarter amounted to SEK 424 million (352), which includes amortization of acquisitionrelated intangible assets of SEK –16 million (–14) and acquisition-related costs of SEK –3 million (–30). The acquisition-related costs in the second quarter of the previous year were significantly higher than this quarter and related mainly to the cost of restructuring the Swiss transport and cash processing operations as a result of the acquisition of VIA MAT in 2014.

Income before tax of SEK 398 million (320) includes a net financial expense of SEK –26 million (–32).

The tax expense for the quarter amounted to SEK –112 million (–84), which represents a tax rate of 28 percent (26).

Earnings per share after dilution amounted to SEK 3.81 (3.14).

January – June 2016

Revenue in the first half of the year amounted to SEK 8,179 million (7,786) and organic growth was 6 percent (2). The CMS contracts that were implemented incrementally in the USA in 2015, higher revenue from SafePoint and increased sales in a number of European countries are the main explanations for the organic growth. Real growth amounted to 7 percent (11) and includes revenue attributable to the acquisitions made in 2015 in the USA and the UK.

The operating income (EBITA) amounted to SEK 819 million (741) and the operating margin was 10.0 percent (9.5). At comparable exchange rates the income improvement was around SEK 98 million. The improved profitability is mainly explained by strong organic growth in CMS and SafePoint in the USA, and by the ongoing efforts to improve efficiency, which continue to yield results in a number of countries.

The operating income (EBIT) amounted to SEK 779 million (660), which includes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets of SEK –32 million (–28) and acquisitionrelated costs of SEK –9 million (–53). The acquisition-related costs in the first half of 2015 were mainly related to the cost of restructuring the Swiss transport and cash processing operations as a result of the acquisition of VIA MAT in 2014.

Income before tax of SEK 725 million (601) includes a net financial expense of SEK –54 million (–59).

The tax expense for the first half of the year amounted to SEK –200 million (–160), which represents a tax rate of 28 percent (27).

Earnings per share after dilution amounted to SEK 6.98 (5.87).

Revenue and operating income – Segment Europe April – June 2016

Revenue for Segment Europe in the second quarter amounted to SEK 2,035 million (2,058) and organic growth was 1 percent (1). The organic growth is explained by positive growth in several countries – primarily Turkey and Argentina. The positive development in Spain, which began at the end of 2015, continued during the second quarter. Growth was partly offset by lower sales in the Nordic countries. Real growth, which amounted to 2 percent (3), includes revenue from the acquisition of Cardtronics' cash handling operations for retail customers in the UK implemented in 2015.

The operating income (EBITA) amounted to SEK 262 million (251) and the operating margin improved to 12.9 percent (12.2). Ongoing efforts to improve efficiency continued and profitability improvement was most evident during the quarter in southern Europe and the UK. The actions taken in the UK to handle the increased volumes in 2015 continued to yield results in the form of improved service quality and an improved operating margin. The increased volumes were the result of the above-mentioned acquisition as well as the contract signed with Tesco in 2014. The lower volumes in the Nordic countries have had a slightly negative effect on the operating margin. Action programs are currently in place to compensate for the lower volumes.

January – June 2016

Revenue for the first half of the year amounted to SEK 4,009 million compared to SEK 4,040 million for the corresponding period the previous year. The organic growth, which amounted to 1 percent (1), is explained by positive growth in several countries – primarily Turkey and Argentina. During the first half of the year, the positive development in Spain, which began at the end of 2015, continued. The growth was partially offset by lower sales in the Nordic countries. Real growth of 3 percent (4) includes revenue from the acquisition of Cardtronics' cash handling operations for retail customers in the UK implemented in 2015.

The operating income (EBITA) amounted to SEK 461 million (448) and the operating margin was 11.5 percent (11.1). The improvement is explained by sustained efforts to improve efficiency, which continue to yield results in several countries. Profitability improvement has been most evident in southern Europe and the UK. The actions taken in the UK to handle the increased volumes have been successful. The lower volumes in the Nordic countries have had a slightly negative effect on the operating margin.

Revenue and operating income – Segment USA April – June 2016

Revenue for Segment USA in the second quarter amounted to SEK 1,774 million (1,566) and organic growth was 13 percent (5). Revenue relating to the CMS contracts implemented incrementally in 2015 and increased revenue from SafePoint are the main explanations for the positive development. Organic growth was also impacted by revenue from the cash-in-transit (CIT) contract signed with State Employees' Credit Union in North Carolina earlier in the year. The real growth of 14 percent (5) includes revenue from the acquisition in 2015 of the Global Logistics' operations from Dunbar Armored Inc. Changes in fuel fees, which Loomis passes on to its customers, reduced the organic growth for the quarter by 1 percentage point, but did not significantly affect the operating income.

The operating income (EBITA) for the quarter was SEK 199 million (160) and the operating margin improved by 1 percentage point to 11.2 percent (10.2). Organic growth in combination with the sustained increase in the share of revenue from CMS and SafePoint as well as the ongoing efficiency improvements, which continue to yield results, are the main explanations for the positive development.

The share of revenue from CMS amounted to 34 percent (31) of the segment's total revenue.

January – June 2016

Revenue for Segment USA amounted to SEK 3,531 million compared to SEK 3,082 million for the corresponding period the previous year.

Growth was also impacted by revenue from the CIT contract signed with State Employees' Credit Union in North Carolina in the first quarter. The real growth of 15 percent (4) includes revenue from the acquisition in 2015 of the Global Logistics' operations from Dunbar Armored Inc. Changes in fuel fees, which Loomis passes on to its customers, reduced the organic growth for the period by 1 percentage point, but did not significantly affect the operating income.

The operating income (EBITA) for the first half of the year was SEK 396 million (317) and the operating margin was 11.2 percent (10.3). The improvement is mainly explained by organic growth in combination with the sustained increase in the share of revenue from CMS and SafePoint and ongoing efforts to improve efficiency, which continue to yield results.

The share of revenue from CMS amounted to 34 percent (30) of the segment's total revenue.

Revenue and operating income – Segment International Services

April – June 2016

Revenue for Segment International Services amounted to SEK 348 million (340) and both real growth and organic growth were 6 percent (n/a). Higher volatility in the precious metals market during the quarter had a positive impact on business volumes. The growing uncertainty in the international markets has also resulted in higher demand for international transport of banknotes. The increase was most evident in Central Europe and the Middle East. Growth was negatively affected by the fact that gold deliveries to India – one of the world's main importers of gold – remained low as a result of the higher import taxes for gold and jewelry introduced earlier in the year.

The operating income (EBITA) amounted to SEK 19 million (16) and the operating margin was 5.5 percent (4.7). Higher sales have had a positive effect on profitability.

January – June 2016

Revenue for Segment International Services for the first half of the year amounted to SEK 666 million, compared to SEK 705 million for the corresponding period the previous year and both real and organic growth was –2 percent (n/a). Demand for crossborder transportation of precious metals is largely determined by the volatility in the market. Volatility was low at the beginning of the year, but increased towards the latter part of the period, generating higher demand. The increase was most evident in Central Europe and the Middle East. Growth was negatively affected by low gold deliveries to India – one of the world's main importers of gold. Import taxes on gold and jewelry were raised during the year and this resulted in strikes in the first quarter among jewelers and gold traders. The strikes, which reduced gold deliveries to India, did not result in any change in the import taxes. The increased taxes have had a substantial negative impact on imported volumes of gold and jewelry to India. Growth for the segment was also impacted by low demand for transports to and from art exhibitions.

The operating income (EBITA) amounted to SEK 35 million (38) and the operating margin for the period was 5.3 percent (5.4). Slightly lower sales have had a negative effect on profitability.

The Annual General Meeting on May 2, 2016 voted in favor of the Board's proposal to introduce an Incentive Scheme (Incentive Scheme 2016). Similar to Incentive Scheme 2015, the proposed incentive scheme (Incentive Scheme 2016) involves two thirds of the variable remuneration being paid out in cash the year after it is earned. The remaining one third will be allotted to participants in the form of Class B shares at the beginning of 2018. The allotment of shares is contingent upon the employee still being employed by the Loomis Group on the last day of February 2018, other than in cases where the employee has left his/her position due to retirement, death or a long-term illness, in which case the individual will retain the right to receive bonus shares. The principles for performance measurement and other general principles that already apply to existing Incentive Schemes will continue to apply. Loomis AB will not issue any new shares or similar instruments in connection with this Incentive Scheme. To enable Loomis to allot these shares, the AGM voted in favor of Loomis AB entering into a share swap agreement with a third party under which the third party will acquire the Loomis shares in its own name and transfer them to the Incentive Scheme participants. The Incentive Scheme will enable around 350 key individuals within the Loomis Group to become shareholders in Loomis AB over time. This will increase employee commitment to Loomis' development for the benefit of all shareholders.

On May 4, 2016, Patrik Andersson assumed the position as President and CEO of Loomis.

Significant events after the end of the reporting period

In July 2016 Loomis announced that it had entered into an agreement to divest the general cargo operations to Rhenus Alpina AG. Loomis took over these operations in connection with the acquisition of VIA MAT in 2014. The divested operations, which are not part of Loomis' core business and which were transferred on July 1, 2016, offer cross-border cargo services by air, sea, road and rail. Revenue from the divested operations amounted to CHF 57 million (equivalent to SEK 499 million) and operating result (EBITA) was CHF 1 million (equivalent to SEK 9 million) for the 2015 financial year. The general cargo operations have been reported in Segment International Services. A profit on sale before tax of around CHF 9 million will be recognized and reported as an item affecting comparability in the third quarter of 2016.

Number of full-time employees

The average number of full-time employees for the rolling twelve-month period was 21,949 (21,665 for the full year 2015). Acquisitions executed as well as appointments made as a result of contracts secured have increased the number of employees. The ongoing cost-saving programs have primarily reduced the number of overtime hours and temporary employees, but has also reduced 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 could result in negative consequences if 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 strives to minimize this risk. The most vulnerable situations are at the roadside, in the vehicles and during cash processing.

Loomis' operations are insured so that the maximum cost of each theft or robbery incident is limited to the deductible amount.

The Parent Company, Loomis AB, is deemed not to have any significant operational risks as it does not engage in operations other than the conventional control of subsidiaries and management of certain Group matters.

The major risks deemed to apply to the Parent Company relate to fluctuations in exchange rates, particularly as regards USD and EUR, increased interest rates and the risk of possible impairment losses on investments.

Financial risks

In its operations, Loomis is exposed to risk associated with financial instruments such as liquid funds, accounts receivable, accounts payable and loans. The risks associated with these instruments are primarily:

  • Interest rate risk associated with liquid funds and loans
  • Exchange rate risks associated with transactions and translation of shareholder's equity
  • Financing risk relating to the Company's capital requirements
  • Liquidity risk associated with short-term solvency
  • Credit risks attributable to financial and commercial activities
  • Capital risk attributable to the capital structure
  • Price risk associated with changes in raw material prices (primarily fuel)

Factors of uncertainty

The economic trend in the first half of 2016 impacted certain geographic areas negatively and it cannot be ruled out that revenue and income may be impacted during the remainder of 2016. Changes in general economic conditions can have various effects on the cash handling services market. These include the ratio of cash purchases to credit card purchases, changes in consumption levels, the risk of robbery and bad debt losses, as well as the staff turnover rate.

Seasonal variations

Loomis' earnings fluctuate across the seasons and this should be taken into consideration when making assessments on the basis of interim financial information. The main reason for these seasonal variations is that the need for cash handling services increases during the summer vacation period, July and August, and during the holiday season at the end of the year, i.e. in November and December.

1) Comparatives have been restated as an effect of a change in accounting principle RFR 2, IAS 21. The effect from the restatement on net income for the period January–June 2015 is SEK –182 million and for the full year 2015 SEK –198 million. Total shareholders' equity was not affected by the changed accounting principle as it only involved a reclassification within non-restricted equity. For further information, please refer to the description of accounting principles in page 14.

2) The number of Class B treasury shares was 53,797.

The Parent Company does not engage in any operating activities. It is only involved in Group management and support functions. The average number of full-time employees at the head office during the first half of the year was 21 (24).

The Parent Company's fixed assets consist mainly of shares in subsidiaries and loan receivables from subsidiaries. The liabilities are mainly external liabilities and loan liabilities to subsidiaries.

The Parent Company's revenue mainly consists of license fees and other revenue from subsidiaries.

Other significant events

Similar to several other companies in Spain, Loomis' Spanish subsidiary is being reviewed by the Spanish competition authority (CNMC). Loomis considers that it has acted in compliance with the laws in effect. An administrative review is under way and a decision from the CNMC is expected before the end of 2016. If the CNMC decides to fine Loomis, Loomis has the opportunity to appeal the ruling with the Spanish appeals court.

For critical estimates and assessments as well as contingent liabilities, please refer to pages 61 and 87 of the 2015 Annual Report. As there have been no other significant changes to the events described in the Annual Report, no further comments have been made on these matters in this interim report.

Accounting principles

The Group's financial reports are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IAS/IFRS, as adopted by the European Union) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and statements issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (formerly IFRIC).

This interim report has been prepared according to IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The interim report is on pages 1–31 and pages 1–15 are thus an integrated part if this financial report. The most important accounting principles according to IFRS, which are the accounting standards used in the preparation of this sixmonth interim report are described in Note 2 on pages 54–60 of the 2015 Annual Report.

The Parent Company's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. The Swedish Financial Reporting Board has amended the standard RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. The amendment is related to IAS 21 and states that exchange rate differences arising on a monetary item that forms part of the Parent Company's net investment in a foreign subsidiary should be accounted for in the Parent Company's statement of income. Before the amendment went into effect, RFR 2 stated that these exchange rate differences should be accounted for in other comprehensive income, which was not in line with IAS 21, paragraph 32. The amendment applies to financial years beginning on January 1, 2016 or later. The amendment affects financial income and expenses in the Parent Company's statement of income. It also affects the translation reserve in the Parent Company's shareholders' equity, as exchange rate differences no longer will be accounted for on this line. The comparative year, 2015, has been restated in the Parent Company's financial statements to reflect this amendment. The amendment has no effect on the Group's financial statements where these exchange rate differences, as previously, are recorded in the translation reserve in equity.

The most important accounting principles applying to the Parent Company can be found in Note 36 on page 92 of the 2015 Annual Report.

Outlook for 2016

The Company is not providing any forecast information for 2016.

The undersigned confirm that this interim report provides a fair and true overview of the Parent Company's and the Group's operations, financial position and results, and describes any significant risks and uncertainties faced by the Parent Company and the companies in the Group.
