CEO's comments

Year 2016 – An eventful year overshadowed by weak development in Mekonomen Sweden

2016 was an eventful year for Mekonomen Group and for me who was entrusted to take over as acting CEO in October. During the year important decisions were taken and several initiatives were started in order to strengthen the Group for the future. We decided to establish a new automated central warehouse for our operations in Sweden, we divested the Danish operation and launched the booking service, "pris direkt". These are some examples of events during the year. However, the year has mostly been characterised by the weak development in Mekonomen Sweden.

Fourth quarter – the result heavily affected by non-recurring effects

In the fourth quarter, the sales in the Group increased by 4 per cent. The sales remained favourable in MECA and Sørensen og Balchen while the sales was weak in Mekonomen Sweden and Mekonomen Norway. The result in the Group was negatively impacted by the development in Mekonomen Sweden and by non-recurring costs related to divestment of the Danish operation and recall of Volvo cars in which defective driving belts had been installed. EBIT amounted to SEK 74 (109) M in the fourth quarter, including non-recurring effects totalling SEK 31 (21) M. Cash flow from operating activities increased to SEK 208 (195) M.

In the quarter we have seen a continued pressure on gross margin, especially in Norway, mainly driven by increased share of our sales to affiliated workshops and large customers, as well as price competition in Norway. We expect this trend will continue going forward.

Stable development in MECA and Sørensen og Balchen

MECA was negatively affected by Denmark and Opus Equipment in the quarter. Excluding these operations MECA reported an operating profit in line with same period last year.

As previously announced, the Danish operation was divested 28 December. MECA's operating profit was impacted by the non-recurring cost of SEK 25 M related to the divestment and by the operating loss in Denmark until 28 December. Opus Equipment, included in MECA, has had a negative development in the quarter. Measures are taken to restore profitability in Opus Equipment.

Sørensen og Balchen has in 2016 generated its best result ever, with a favourable sales development of accessories and with good cost control.

Mekonomen Sweden – the challenges not yet solved

Focus during the quarter has been the efforts to re-generate sales growth in Mekonomen Sweden. During the quarter, a more decentralised sales organisation was reinstated in Mekonomen Sweden, where the store managers are given more opportunities to run their own local business. The measures have not yet been completed.

The store data system has been stabilised in the 30 stores where it has been installed and we estimate that the system has not affected the sales negatively from the end of the quarter. All initial issues are not yet solved and we will evaluate the next step during the first quarter. Continued implementation in 2017 will only occur if we over a longer period of time have at least the same growth and profit in these 30 stores, as in other stores in Mekonomen Sweden.

Strong sales growth to affiliated workshops

The sales to affiliated workshops presented a strong growth in the quarter, which is the part of our business that we regard as strategically most important for growth. Also, the sales of spare parts under our own ProMeister brand had a positive development in the quarter.

Market development remains stable

We assess that the market was stable during the fourth quarter. Provided that scrapping or export of cars do not increase, we see potential for an increasing overall market in 2017, mainly driven by a strong sales of new cars in recent years and a growing car fleet in Norway and Sweden. Compared to last year we have not seen same strong chill effect this January, with some negative effect on sales of cold related products.

Focus 2017

Focus in 2017 is to drive growth in all our Group companies, where turning the development in Mekonomen Sweden has the highest priority. During the year we will strengthen our customer offering, partly by launching new categories within ProMeister and launching of the next generation spare part catalogue and e-commerce platform. We also continue to focus on development of the offering to our affiliated workshops. The project to establish a new Swedish automated central warehouse is proceeding as planned.

Although the main focus is to increase sales, it is important that it is done with good cost control. As a consequence we will expand the previously communicated cost and efficiency program from SEK 25 M to SEK 45 M on an annual basis, with full effect from the third quarter 2017. We will also have more focus on streamlining and optimising our local inventories in the stores to further strengthen the cash flow.

With the strength of our different concepts and with the power of innovation and entrepreneurial spirit among our employees I look forward in 2017 to us continuing to be first choice for the workshops and the car owners.

In July 2016, Mekonomen Group signed an agreement with TGW Logistics Group to expand the existing central warehouse in Strängnäs with a fully automated section. The expansion is intended to create a Group-wide, flexible and cost-efficient platform for the supply chain in the Group. The estimated investment during the period 2016-2018 is SEK 190 M with full EBIT effect from savings of SEK 50 M annually from 2020. Capital tied-up is expected to decline SEK 80 M with full effect as of 2020.

Other acquisitions had only a marginal effect on consolidated sales and earnings.

Number of stores and workshops

At the end of the period, the total number of stores in the chains for continuing operations was 342 (342), of which 261 (257) were proprietary stores. The number of affiliated workshops totalled 2,021 (2,126). See the distribution in the table on page 17.

PERFORMANCE BY SEGMENT

To adapt segment reporting to the changed internal organisation and governance, a new segment structure was implemented in 2016. As of the first quarter of 2016, the Group is managed and reported in four segments; MECA, Mekonomen Sweden, Mekonomen Norway and Sørensen og Balchen. Reporting according to this new segment distribution has taken place since the first quarter of 2016. Comparative figures have been restated. For further information, refer to "Accounting policies" on page 9 and for the comparative figures 2015, which have been restated, refer to the table "Quarterly data, continuing operations, segment" on page 16.

The MECA segment mainly includes wholesale and store operations in Sweden and Norway, the export business to Denmark, until 28 December 2016, and the delivery and service of workshop equipment in Opus Equipment. As of 1 January 2015, the store operations in Denmark have been presented as discontinued operations and are not therefore included in the MECA segment. For further information about discontinued operations, see page 18.

A strong sales increase to MECA Car Service workshops was a key factor behind MECA's sales growth during the quarter.

The Danish operation, divested to T. Hansen Gruppen on 28 December, has had a negative impact on MECA's EBIT of SEK 37 M (neg: 11) in the quarter, where of SEK 25 M is a non-recurring effect of the divestment (of which gross profit has been negatively affected by SEK 28 M, other costs positively by SEK 5 M and impairment of tangible fixed assets negatively by SEK 2 M) and SEK 12 M (neg: 11) is operating loss. For the full year Denmark has had a negative impact on MECA's EBIT of SEK 52 M (neg: 31). Net sales for the export business to Denmark amounted to SEK 16 M (20) for the quarter and SEK 67 M (54) for the full year.

In the comparative period, MECA's EBIT were negatively impacted by non-recurring costs of SEK 2 M for the quarter, of which SEK 2 M pertained to gross profit, and SEK 3 M for the full year, of which SEK 2 M pertained to gross profit.

During the quarter, MECA has had a negative impact on the gross margin, due to a higher proportion of sales to major customers. Opus Equipment has had a negative development in the quarter. In Norway, oil sales to industrial customers developed further during the fourth quarter. The competition has intensified in the Norwegian market.

The currency effect on net sales against the NOK was a positive SEK 18 M for the quarter and a negative SEK 26 M for the full year. In the fourth quarter, the number of workdays was one day more in Sweden and Norway, compared with the preceding year, and two days more in Sweden and Norway for the full year. Underlying net sales rose 3 per cent in the fourth quarter and 10 per cent for the full year. MECA's EBIT totalled SEK 13 M (49) for the fourth quarter and the EBIT margin amounted to 2 per cent (10).

Number of MekoPartner 127 125

The Mekonomen Sweden segment mainly includes wholesale, store and fleet operations in Sweden.

Since the organisational change which was implemented at the end of 2015 led to a negative effect on sales and higher personnel costs, a more decentralised organisation has been re-established in Mekonomen Sweden during the fourth quarter. The measures have not yet been completed. The new store data system, which has had a negative impact on sales and earnings earlier in the year, has step-by-step been adapted and improved and the assessment is that the system did not impact sales negatively from the end of the quarter, in the 30 stores where it has been implemented. EBIT and gross profit in the fourth quarter have been negatively affected by non-recurring costs of SEK 5 M related to recall of Volvo cars in which defective driving belts have been installed. In the comparative period, Mekonomen Sweden's gross profit was negatively impacted by non-recurring costs of SEK 6 M and EBIT was negatively impacted by additional non-recurring costs of SEK 10 M.

The underlying net sales declined 6 per cent in the fourth quarter and declined 3 per cent for the full year. In the fourth quarter, the number of workdays was one day more in Sweden compared with the previous year and two days more for the full year. EBIT totalled SEK 40 M (53) for the fourth quarter and the EBIT margin was 8 per cent (10).

MEKONOMEN NORWAY SEGMENT

The Mekonomen Norway segment mainly includes store and fleet operations in Norway.

The key driver of Mekonomen Norway's growth during the year was sales to Mekonomen Service Centres, but during the fourth quarter the growth was more evenly distributed between other workshops and Mekonomen Service Centres. Intensified competition has had a negative effect on the gross margin in the quarter. EBIT and gross profit in the fourth quarter have been negatively affected by non-recurring costs of SEK 1 M related to recall of Volvo cars in which defective driving belts have been installed. In the comparative period, Mekonomen Norway's gross profit was negatively impacted by non-recurring effects of SEK 1 M.

Underlying net sales was unchanged in the fourth quarter and rose 5 per cent for the full year. The currency effect on net sales against the NOK was a positive SEK 16 M in the fourth quarter and a negative SEK 23 M for the full year. In the fourth quarter, the number of workdays was one day more in Norway compared with the previous year and two days more for the full year. EBIT amounted to SEK 28 M (25) for the fourth quarter and the EBIT margin was 13 per cent (13).

PARENT COMPANY, "OTHER SEGMENTS" AND "OTHER ITEMS"

The Parent Company's operations mainly comprise Group Management and finance management. As of 1 April 2016 all employees except for Group Management were transferred from the Parent Company to a central company that administers all Group-wide functions for Mekonomen Group. The Parent Company's earnings after net financial items were a negative SEK 8 M (neg: 12) for the fourth quarter and a negative SEK 57 M (neg: 53) for the full year, excluding write-down of shares in subsidiaries of negative SEK 28 M (neg: 35) for the fourth quarter and for the full year and excluding the share dividend from subsidiaries of SEK 0 M (68) for the fourth quarter and SEK 47 M (489) for the full year.

The average number of employees was 7 (15). During the fourth quarter, Mekonomen AB sold goods and services to Group companies for a total of SEK 9 M (11) and for SEK 35 M (37) in the full year.

As of 1 January 2016, disclosures previously reported under "Others" are now distributed between "Other segments" and "Other items" and more units have been added to "Other segments" from the now discontinued Mekonomen Nordic segment. Comparative figures have been restated. For further information, refer to "Accounting policies" on page 9 and for the comparative figures from 2014-2015, which have been restated, refer to the table "Quarterly data, continuing operations, segment" page 16.

"Other segments" includes business operations and operating segments that are not reported separately. These include Mekonomen's wholesale and store operations in Finland, Mekonomen's store operations in Iceland, Marinshopen, Meko Service Nordic with the BilLivet and Speedy workshop operations, the Car Share operations, Mekonomen car leasing service, our joint venture in Poland (InterMeko Europa), the affiliated company Automotive Web Solutions AB, Lasingoo Norway and Group-wide functions that also include Mekonomen AB (publ). EBIT for "Other segments" amounted to negative SEK 16 M (neg: 26) for the fourth quarter and a negative SEK 84 M (neg: 106) for the full-year. EBIT was negatively impacted by non-recurring effects of SEK 13 M (1). The 2016 effect pertains to non-recurring costs for persons who have been part of group management, mainly the former CEO in an amount of SEK 11 M for the full year, nothing in the quarter.

"Other items" includes acquisition-related items attributable to Mekonomen AB's direct acquisitions. Current acquisition-related items pertain to amortisation of acquired intangible assets for the acquisitions of MECA and Sørensen og Balchen totalling an expense of SEK 19 M (expense: 19) for the fourth quarter and an expense of SEK 77 M (expense: 77) for the full-year.

Board members Caroline Berg and Mia Brunell Livfors have declared their seats available and during the Extra General Meeting on the 10 January 2017 Joseph M. Holsten and John S. Quinn were elected as new Board members in accordance with the proposal by LKQ. John S. Quinn was elected as Deputy Chairman.

No other significant events occurred after the end of the reporting period.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Mekonomen Group applies the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU. This year-end report was prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The same accounting policies and measurement methods were applied as in the most recent Annual Report. This year-end report consists of pages 1-23 and should be read in its entirety.

New standards or interpretations that became effective on 1 January 2016 have not had any material effect on Mekonomen Group's financial statements for the interim period.

The Parent Company prepares its accounts in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 and applies the same accounting policies and measurement methods as in the most recent Annual Report, except that exchange-rate differences pertaining to net investment in foreign operations as of 1 January 2016 have been recognised in profit or loss instead of in comprehensive income, in accordance with the changes in RFR 2. Comparative figures have been restated.

SEGMENT REPORTING

In an effort to streamline Mekonomen Group's reporting structure, Mekonomen Sweden and Mekonomen Norway report directly to the President and CEO as of 2016. This has led to the removal of one organisational unit, Mekonomen Nordic. As of the first quarter of 2016, the Group is now managed and reported in four segments; MECA, Mekonomen Sweden, Mekonomen Norway and Sørensen og Balchen. Reporting according to the new segment structure has taken place since the first quarter of 2016. Comparative figures have been restated.

The MECA segment remains unchanged and mainly includes wholesale and store operations in Sweden and Norway and the export business to Denmark, until 28 December 2016, and the delivery and service of workshop equipment in Opus Equipment. As of 1 January 2015, the store operations in Denmark have been presented as discontinued operations and are not therefore included in the MECA segment. The Mekonomen Sweden segment mainly includes wholesale, store and fleet operations in Sweden. The Mekonomen Norway segment mainly includes store and fleet operations in Norway. The Sørensen og Balchen segment remains unchanged and mainly includes wholesale and store operations in Norway.

"Other segments" includes business operations and operating segments that are not reported separately. These include Mekonomen's wholesale and store operations in Finland, Mekonomen's store operations in Iceland, Marinshopen, Meko Service Nordic with the BilLivet and Speedy workshop operations, the Car Share operations, Mekonomen car leasing service, our joint venture in Poland (InterMeko Europa), the affiliated company Automotive Web Solutions AB, Lasingoo Norway and Group-wide functions that also include Mekonomen AB (publ). The units reported in "Other segments" cannot produce the quantitative thresholds to be considered reportable, and the benefits of reporting these segments separately are considered limited for users of the financial statements. Mekonomen AB's operations mainly comprise Group Management and finance management functions.

"Other items" includes acquisition-related items attributable to Mekonomen AB's direct acquisitions.

As of 1 January 2016, disclosures previously reported under "Others" are now distributed between "Other segments" and "Other items," and Mekonomen Finland, Mekonomen Iceland, Marinshopen and central administrative functions from the former Mekonomen Nordic segments have been added to "Other segments." Comparative figures have been restated.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In December 2014, a decision was made regarding extensive structural changes and repositioning of the Group's Danish operations. All of the stores, which are also local warehouses, as well as the Danish head office have been closed. The franchise workshops were retained and these now receive deliveries of spare parts directly from regional and central warehouses, which has made logistics more efficient without intermediaries in the distribution chain.

In March 2015, the last two stores in Denmark were discontinued and from the first quarter of 2015, the Danish store operations have been presented according to the rules on discontinued operations in IFRS 5. All comparative periods have been restated. The Danish store operations were previously included in the MECA segment.

In the consolidated income statement, earnings generated by the discontinued store operations are recognised as an item under "Discontinued operations." This means that the discontinued operations have been excluded from all profit/loss items in the consolidated income statement and that only net earnings from the discontinued operations have been presented in the line item "Earnings/loss from discontinued operations." Cash flow from discontinued operations is included in the consolidated cash-flow statement and recognised separately below. The consolidated balance sheet has not been restated.

As at 31 December 2016, the accumulated translation reserve pertaining to Denmark was a negative SEK 14 M. The translation reserve pertaining to Denmark will be reclassified in shareholders' equity via profit or loss in the current amount on the date when the Danish company is liquidated.

ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES

From the January-June 2016 interim report, Mekonomen applies the new Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures issued by the ESMA*. Alternative performance measures are financial measures of historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that are not defined or specified in IFRS. Mekonomen believes that these measures provide valuable supplementary information to company management, investors and other stakeholders in evaluating the company's performance. These alternative performance measures are not always comparable with the measure used by other companies since not all companies calculate these measures in the same way. Accordingly, the measures are to be viewed as a supplement to the measures defined according to IFRS. For definitions of key figures, refer to page 22. For relevant reconciliation of the alternative performance measures that cannot be directly read in or derived from the financial statements, refer to the tables below. *The European Securities and Markets Authority.
