CONTINUED GROWTH DESPITE CHALLENGING MARKET

HAKI Safety reports growth in the first quarter, but the result continues to be weighed down by the situation in new construction and property renovations in the UK. The Group is also negatively impacted by a continued soft market, which is partly attributable to the increasingly unpredictable geopolitical environment. Despite this and the normally seasonally weak quarter, organic sales increased 9 percent compared to the corresponding period last year, and we saw a slight margin improvement.

The situation in the UK is primarily driven by extended approval timelines for fire prevention measures. This has contributed to delays in the commencement of construction activities and has significantly impacted sales of our work zone safety products. We are monitoring the development very closely. We have taken actions, such as cost-saving measures, and are prepared to take further action if necessary. However, the general assessment is that the underlying demand is good and the decline is temporary. We are well-positioned in the UK market when the turnaround comes.

HAKI Safety is also impacted by prevailing geopolitical unpredictability, which in turn creates uncertainty about growth, interest rates, and inflation. The level of activity within the Group is high, with many inquiries and ongoing negotiations, but the uncertainty implies that the market as a whole is soft.

At the same time, we are pleased with our latest acquisition, Newbow Aerospace, which manufactures and sells ground support equipment. The products are used for the safe and efficient maintenance of aircraft in regular service or that have planned maintenance. Their products complement Semmco's products in the same field. There are several sales and production synergies between these two operations that we look forward to realising. We are also investing in organic growth through new recruitment in markets in Central and Eastern Europe. Our strategy, which ultimately aims to create safe conditions for everyone working in challenging environments, is solid, and we are well-positioned for the future across all business areas.

The Work Zone Safety business area decreased its sales and margin year-on-year. Demand varied across geographic markets and product categories. The business area was significantly impacted by the unusually low level of activity in the UK property sector, while demand from the European aviation and rail market segments remained strong.

The Scaffolding Systems business area increased its sales and margin year-on-year. This is explained by a weak comparison period and a more efficient and cost-effective operation. The level of activity is high, with many inquiries and ongoing negotiations. At the beginning of the quarter, we made a minor organisational change as the business area took over responsibility for the operations in Austria and Central and Eastern Europe from the Work Zone Safety business area. We see that the commercial cooperation between the countries and the business area has continuously increased and that there are therefore efficiency and coordination gains with the change. The new business area structure is reflected in this report, and historical figures have been updated and are available on our website.

The Digital Solutions business area increased its sales year-on-year, mainly attributable to the acquisition of Trimtec in March 2025. The margin, however, was impacted by seasonal effects and a less favourable product mix. The development was better in Norway than in Sweden, although both reported high activity levels and many inquiries.

The unpredictable global situation continues to create uncertainty about short-term market developments. Our priority is to create favourable conditions for profitable growth. To support this, we continue to improve efficiency and realise synergies from acquisitions, providing a solid foundation for future growth. Overall, we are positive about the future.

REPORT COMMENTS

GROUP FIRST QUARTER 2026

Group net sales amounted to SEK 286 M (263), an increase of 9 percent compared with the year-earlier quarter. Organically, net sales increased 9 percent. Acquisitions and divestments had a positive net impact on net sales of 3 percent, and exchange rate effects had a negative net impact on net sales of 3 percent.

Gross margin was 37.4 percent (35.4). Adjusted EBITA amounted to SEK 10 M (6). The adjusted EBITA margin was 3.5 percent (2.3), positively impacted by the development in the Scaffolding Systems business area and negatively impacted by the very low sales volumes of products for new construction and property renovation in the UK.

Operating profit totalled SEK 5 M (0), corresponding to an operating margin of 1.7 percent (0.0). Depreciations and write-downs of acquisitions-related assets were SEK 3 M (3).

Net financial income amounted to SEK -2 M (-17). The net financial income for the period includes a net interest income of SEK -5 M (-6) and exchange rate effects of SEK 4 M (-11) and other financial posts of SEK -1 M (0).

Net result after tax totalled SEK 4 M (-13), corresponding to SEK 0.13 per share before and after dilution (-0.48). The tax expense was affected by adjustments to previous years' taxation.

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 23 M (-36). Net investments in strategic rental equipment were SEK 0 M (-21). Cash flow from investment activities amounted to SEK -28 M (-39), related to the acquisition of Newbow Aerospace. Cash flow from financing activities was SEK -2 M (43).

Group financial net debt was SEK 358 M compared to SEK 346 M at the beginning of the year.

WORK ZONE SAFETY

Work zone safety products and solutions are designed to protect those working at height or moving at temporary or non-stationary workplaces. The products include catchfans, barrier systems and access platforms, which, for example, enable safe and efficient maintenance of aircraft and trains and the construction and maintenance of commercial properties and infrastructure such as bridges and tunnels. The business area includes the brands HAKI, Semmco and Newbow Aerospace.

img-3.jpeg

Demand for work zone safety products varied across geographic markets and product categories during the first quarter. Overall, net sales decreased 2.3 percent year-on-year. The business area was significantly impacted by the unusually low level of activity in the UK property sector. As a result, the business area has taken cost-saving measures and may implement further action if necessary. Since the establishment of the Building Safety Regulator in the country, the approval timelines for fire prevention measures for high-rise buildings and healthcare facilities have been extended, contributing to major delays in the commencement of construction activities. However, the general assessment is that the underlying demand is good and that the authority's processing times will gradually become more acceptable. Demand for products for commercial properties and infrastructure in France remained healthy, while the market in Canada was more challenging. Demand from the aviation and rail market segments remained strong in Europe but weak in North America.

Adjusted EBITA and the adjusted EBITA margin decreased compared with the year-earlier period, mainly as a result of lower sales, but also an unfavourable product mix.

The business area is investing in organic growth by recruiting salespeople with a focus on the US and Switzerland. In January 2026, Newbow Aerospace, which manufactures and sells ground support equipment for safe and efficient aircraft maintenance, was acquired. The company has been included in the reporting since January. See also page 7.

SCAFFOLDING SYSTEMS

Products and solutions for scaffolding systems include modular and frame scaffolding, weather protection, stair solutions, bridge systems, etc., designed to protect those working at height at temporary workplaces. The systems consist of a patented spring lock, which not only saves time but also reduces the risk of occupational injuries and saves the environment in terms of less material consumption. Sales are made to projects primarily related to energy, infrastructure, industry, construction and civil engineering. The business area includes the brands HAKI and ERRO.

img-5.jpeg

Demand for system scaffolds in the first quarter increased 16.3 percent year-on-year, mainly due to a weak comparison period. As in previous quarters, demand remained healthy for products for energy and infrastructure projects in Norway and Denmark, while demand for products for new construction and property renovation remained low in the UK and Scandinavia. However, activity levels in the business area remain high with many inquiries and ongoing negotiations. No major buyouts of rental equipment occurred during the quarter.

Adjusted EBITA and the adjusted EBITA margin increased compared with the year-earlier period, which is explained by higher sales, a favourable product mix, and the effects of the cost-savings and efficiency programme that was carried out in 2025.

At the beginning of the year, the business area took over responsibility for the operations in Austria and Central and Eastern Europe from the Work Zone Safety business area. The reason for the reorganisation is that the commercial cooperation between the countries and the business area has continuously increased, and that there are therefore efficiency and coordination gains with the change. The presence in Central and Eastern Europe has also been strengthened through new recruitments. The new business area structure is reflected in this report.

DIGITAL SOLUTIONS

Digital solutions comprise HAKI Safety's offering within geodesy. The business area offers the purchase and rental of Trimble's precision instruments for surveying and mapping. The offering also includes service agreements for maintenance and training assignments. Sales are made to projects primarily within infrastructure, industry, and construction and civil engineering. The business area includes the operations of Norgeodesi and Trimtec.

img-7.jpeg

Demand for land surveying and mapping products in the first quarter increased 68.6 percent year-on-year, driven by the acquisition of Trimtec, which was consolidated in March 2025, and positive development in Norway, despite a soft market. Several project starts have been postponed due to the geopolitical situation. However, activity levels are high with many inquiries and

ongoing negotiations in both countries. The underlying market is considered to be healthy.

Adjusted EBITA increased compared with the year-earlier period while the adjusted EBITA margin decreased, mainly due to seasonal effects, a less favourable product mix, and the acquisition of Trimtec, which initially has a lower margin than the Norwegian operation.

Significant events during the quarter

HAKI Safety signed an agreement and finalised the acquisition of Newbow Aerospace, a privately owned UK-based market-leading manufacturer and supplier of Ground Support Equipment (GSE) used for safe and efficient aircraft maintenance. The acquisition gives HAKI Safety a stronger product offering in aviation work zone safety while complementing the Group's current product portfolio of aircraft maintenance access platforms under the Semmco brand. Newbow Aerospace manufactures and sells customised products and solutions intended for safe maintenance of aircraft tyres. Customers are found worldwide and include both civilian and military customers. The company's headquarters and manufacturing are located in Redditch, Worcestershire, England. The business has shown good growth, and turnover over the last twelve-month period amounted to approximately SEK 40 M. The company currently has about 20 employees.

Significant events after the close of the period

No significant events after the close of the period have been reported.

Material risks and uncertainty factors

An important element of HAKI Safety's strategic planning is identifying business-critical risks that could have a negative impact on the Group. Group-wide long-term risks are managed through a risk management process, where material risks are identified and categorised into four key areas: strategic risks, operational risks, compliance risks, and financial risks. For information about these risks and the risk management process, refer to the 2025 Annual Report available at www.hakisafety.com.

Short-term risks include, among other things, wars and conflicts that can give rise to global geopolitical effects, as well as general macroeconomic factors that can affect growth, interest rates, inflation, and currencies. HAKI Safety is affected by the current geopolitical unpredictability, which makes the market as a whole soft. The conflict in the Middle East has no direct impact on the Group but may lead to higher prices and longer delivery times for input goods, in addition to the general instability. Likewise, the Group's direct exposure is limited in terms of the uncertainty surrounding tariff levels between the US and Europe. In the US, HAKI Safety has only a small production facility with a domestic supply chain. The indirect consequences of the ongoing uncertainties are difficult to predict, but they could lead to inflation, which in turn could affect HAKI Safety's ability to achieve its financial goals. The Group continuously monitors global events to mitigate any negative effects through various action programmes, including cost savings, price adjustments, or production adjustments.

Financial targets and dividend policy

HAKI Safety has the following financial targets and dividend policy for the Group:

  1. Net sales of SEK 2,000 M by 2027

Net sales are to amount to SEK 2,000 M by 2027. The net sales increase will be based on a combination of organic growth, organic growth projects and acquired growth.

  1. Adjusted EBITA margin >10%

The adjusted EBITA margin is to amount to more than 10 percent. Adjusted EBITA margin is deemed to give a fair picture of the profitability of the underlying business as it excludes amortisation and write-downs of acquisition-related intangible assets and non-recurring items.

  1. Financial net debt in relation to adjusted EBITDA <2.5

EBITDA is to be less than 2.5. The key figure shows the relation of net debt to adjusted EBITDA. The financial net debt refers to interest-bearing liabilities with deductions for cash and adjusted EBITDA as operating profit excluding depreciation, amortisation and write-downs and non-recurring items. The measures are measured excluding the effects of IFRS 16.

Dividend policy

The dividend is to amount to 25-50 percent of the year's net profit. Proposals for dividends will consider the shareholders' expectation of a reasonable dividend yield and the business's need for financing.

Sustainability targets

Since 2025, the Group has four sustainability goals in the areas of environment, social responsibility, and governance. The targets will be followed up on annually and reported in future annual reports. Read more about the Group's sustainability goals on www.hakisafety.com.

Concerning the Group's target within health & safety, HAKI Safety has made a commitment to zero Total Recordable Injury Frequency (TRIF). HAKI Safety shall provide employees with appropriate training and instructions for safe work practices. All employees must, at the same time, follow safety instructions and engage in safety improvement activities, where reporting on incidents and risks is an important part. Calculated on a rolling twelve-month basis, TRIF was 10.8 (10.8) at the end of the first quarter.

Accounting principles

The Group's interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2. HAKI Safety continues to apply the same accounting principles and valuation methods that are described in the most recent annual report. Amendments to IFRS standards that became effective in 2026 have not had a material impact on the result and financial position of HAKI Safety. This report is presented in SEK million, why rounding differences can occur at certain rows and amounts.

Operating segments

HAKI Safety has a decentralised group structure with three operating segments, called business areas. HAKI Safety offers a wide range of products and solutions within work zone safety, scaffolding systems and digital and technical solutions that help customers achieve safety and efficiency in their various environments.

At the beginning of the year, the Scaffolding Systems business area took over responsibility for the operations in Austria and Central and Eastern Europe from the Work Zone Safety business area. The reason for the reorganisation is that the commercial cooperation between the countries and the business area has continuously increased, and that there are therefore efficiency and coordination gains with the change. The new business area structure is reflected in this report. Historical figures have been updated and are available at www.hakisafety.com/investors/restated-figures-2026.

  • Work Zone Safety: catchfans, barrier systems, access platforms, stairs, etc.
  • Scaffolding Systems: module and frame scaffolding, weather protection, stair solutions, bridge systems, etc.
  • Digital Solutions: surveying instruments and equipment for land surveying, and construction laser level tools
  • Other: discontinued operation and common costs

Effects of changes in estimates and judgments

Critical estimates and judgments are described in the 2025 Annual Report. No changes that could have a significant impact on the current report have been implemented.

Information on financial instruments

HAKI Safety has no financial assets valued as fair value through the income statement. All financial assets are valued at amortised cost. Acquisition-related earnings are accounted for as a financial liability in the balance sheet, which is valued at fair value in accordance with level 3, in accordance with IFRS 13. Earnings have been calculated based on discounting future cash flow. Evaluation of future cash flow for earnings is based on gross profit in acquired operations. The fair value of earnings will be changed if assumptions in gross profit in acquired businesses are changed. A complete description of accounting principles is presented in the 2025 Annual Report.

Auditor's review

This report has not been subject to review by the company's auditor.

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 forward-looking 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.
