Performance measures

Positive foundation for growth in both of our business areas despite an unpredictable market

During the third quarter, Momentum Group continued to deliver good growth and stability despite challenging market conditions. Our focus on aftermarket products for Nordic industry continued to yield positive results, and demand was stable in most of our customer segments.

Market development

The business climate in our main markets in the Nordic region remained stable during the quarter. Demand in Sweden was relatively strong, especially in our aftermarket operations, which account for the majority of our business. However, demand in larger projects remained low. The market in Finland remained cautious, while the Danish market exhibited healthy demand within certain customer segments, particularly pharmaceuticals and green technology.

Financial development

The Group's operations delivered stable sales growth during the quarter, with organic revenue growth of 3 per cent. Consolidated revenue increased by a total of 20 per cent year on year, with the primary contribution to growth coming from acquired companies. EBITA increased by 27 per cent compared with the same quarter last year and our EBITA margin rose to 12.8 per cent (12.1). This earnings growth was underpinned by various factors, including stronger margins in comparable units and acquisitions.

Three clear requirements for all of our companies

Our growth strategy is based on developing existing operations and acquisitions in order to achieve our three fundamental requirements. The first is profit growth of at least 15 per cent per year, and the second is profitability of at least 45 per cent in each company, measured as EBITA in relation to working capital (WC). EBITA/WC prioritises high earnings and low tied-up capital, which in

combination with a growth target of 15 per cent supports self-financed long-term growth.

We also have a third fundamental requirement that focuses on development. To ensure long-term growth and profitability, our companies and employees must be able and willing to develop and change over time.

According to our focus model for capital allocation, our priorities are dictated by a company's profitability. Only companies with EBITA/WC over 45 per cent can use acquisitions as a way to expand their operations. Examples of such companies include Öbergs, BPS, iTEMS and Agera, which acquired subsidiaries to strengthen their offerings and expertise by adding new, talented employees – in accordance with our focus model.

Financial flexibility through focus on the right acquisitions

After the third quarter, our operational net loan liability amounted to SEK 334 million, compared with SEK 326 million at the beginning of the year. The difference is largely attributable to cash flow from operating activities, acquisitions and dividends paid during the reporting period. Together with our cash and cash equivalents of SEK 781 million, including unutilised granted credit facilities, our cash flow provides us with security and bodes well for healthy financial flexibility going forward.

Despite the uncertain global security situation, relatively high interest rates and delays to the anticipated economic recovery, we remain optimistic. We have a positive foundation for growth in both of our business areas. We will achieve this by enhancing our operations

through a clear internal focus on our three fundamental requirements: growth, profitability and development, based on active ownership and decentralised responsibility, and the development of our employees. Acquisitions also remain a major part of our everyday operations and we will add more outstanding companies to our Group that we can further develop together with the entrepreneurs behind them.

Comments on the market

The business climate in the Group's main markets in the Nordic region remained stable as a whole during the third quarter. Demand in Sweden was relatively strong, especially in the Group's aftermarket operations, which account for the majority of our business, though demand in larger projects remained low. The market in Finland remained cautious, while the Danish market exhibited healthy demand within certain customer segments, particularly pharmaceuticals and green technology.

Purchasing prices and costs increased at a moderate rate, and the companies in the Group displayed overall good delivery capacity during the quarter.

Given that our operating environment remains challenging, with an uncertain global security situation, relatively high interest rates and delays to the anticipated economic recovery, demand from our customers will likely remain muted. The Group's companies are continually adopting measures to 1,7. The Group's decentralised structure, with decisions made close to customers and suppliers, has proven to be a major strength in these efforts.

The current situation has not led to any changes in material bases of judgement compared with those applied in the annual report for 2023.

Performance in the third quarter of 2024

The Group posted an overall positive sales trend during the quarter, with stable demand for products and services in most customer segments.

During the third quarter, revenue increased 20 per cent compared with the year-earlier period and amounted to SEK 694 million (580). Growth in comparable units was 3 per cent. The quarter included one more trading day than the corresponding quarter in the preceding year.

Earnings performance

Third quarter 2024

Operating profit rose by 26 per cent to SEK 78 million (62), corresponding to an operating margin of 11.2 per cent (10.7).

Industry business area

Offers components and related services primarily to aftermarket customers and OEMs in the industrial sector in the Nordic region. The companies are mainly resellers, but with certain proprietary products and system construction, with a significant focus on industrial improvements. The business area consists of the Power Transmission and Specialist business units.

Operations

Sales and earnings in Power Transmission, which consists of the company Momentum Industrial, were positive during the quarter. Demand from customers in the metal and mining industries, among others, increased, which led to volume growth. Customer segments within automotive, as well as pulp and paper, posted stable demand. The company plans to move its central warehouse during the first quarter of 2025. The project is proceeding according to plan, and no material costs have been incurred to date.

Specialist posted somewhat lower sales with good earnings growth in comparable units. Acquired businesses also contributed revenue of SEK 19 million with good EBITA margins. The Swedish businesses noted generally strong demand. The situation was more cautious in Finland, and demand in Denmark was somewhat weaker, although this was partially offset by strong demand in the pharmaceutical sector.

Financial performance in the third quarter of 2024

Revenue rose by 7 percent to SEK 402 million (375) compared with the same quarter last year. Revenue for comparable units, measured in local currency and adjusted for the number of trading days, were unchanged compared to the previous year.

EBITA increased by 12 percent to SEK 58 million (52), corresponding to an EBITA margin of 14.4 percent (13.9). The business area's profitability measured as return on working capital (EBITA/WC) amounted to 69 percent (68).

The companies are resellers and service companies, and often deliver solutions focused on secure operation, longer service life, increased efficiency and precise measurability. The business area comprises the Flow Technology and Technical Solutions business units.

Operations

The companies in Flow Technology generally performed well during the quarter, with favourable growth in sales and earnings. Overall, demand was strong in Sweden and improved in Denmark during the quarter, driven by the pharmaceutical sector and investments in green technology, while the market in Finland remained cautious. A significant part of the business unit consists of companies acquired in the current or preceding year. Acquired businesses contributed revenue of SEK 39 million during the quarter.

Technical Solutions displayed a stable sales performance with strong earnings growth for comparable units during the quarter. Overall, capacity utilisation in the workshops was good, which in combination with improved margins and effective cost control led to an improvement in earnings. Demand in measurement technology and control was also positive during the quarter, due in part to increased sales of larger systems. Acquired operations within the segment contributed SEK 28 million to revenue during the quarter.

Financial performance in the third quarter of 2024

Revenue rose by 42 per cent to SEK 295 million (208) compared with the same quarter last year. Revenue for comparable units, measured in local currency and adjusted for the number of trading days, increased by 7 per cent.

Profitability

The Group's profitability, measured as the return on working capital (EBITA/WC), amounted to 60 per cent (60) for the most recent 12-month period. The return on equity for the same period was 30 per cent (32).

Cash flow for the period January–September 2024

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital for the reporting period was SEK 240 million (194). Cash flow was impacted by paid tax of SEK –62 million (–41), of which SEK –8 million related to the final settlement of tax from the 2022 income year. In the reporting period, inventories decreased by SEK 10 million. Operating receivables increased by SEK 17 million and operating liabilities decreased by SEK 19 million. Accordingly, cash flow from operating activities for the reporting period amounted to SEK 214 million (159).

Cash flow from investing activities for the reporting period amounted to SEK –111 million (–348). Cash flow includes business combinations of SEK –90 million (–339), settlements of deferred payments regarding acquisitions

of SEK –12 million (–) and net investments in non-current assets of SEK –9 million (–9).

Cash flow from financing activities for the reporting period, which amounted to SEK –85 million (204), was mainly attributable to the net change in interest-bearing liabilities of SEK –32 million (240) and the dividend paid of SEK –58 million (–50), of which SEK –4 million (–1) pertained to the dividend to non-controlling interests in subsidiaries. Cash flow for the reporting period was also impacted in an amount of SEK 5 million (14) by sales of own shares in connection with acquisitions.

Financial position

The Group's financial net loan liability at the end of the reporting period was SEK 551 million, compared with SEK 514 million at the beginning of the year. At the end of the period, the Group's operational net loan liability amounted to SEK 334 million, compared with SEK 326 million at the beginning of the financial year. The difference is largely attributable to cash flow from operating activities, acquisitions and dividends paid during the period.

Cash and cash equivalents, including unutilised granted credit facilities, totalled SEK 781 million. Granted credit facilities comprise the company's revolving facility of SEK 800 million with a remaining maturity until 31 December 2026 and a committed credit facility totalling SEK 300 million with a maturity of one year (extended in April 2025). Of the company's revolving facility and committed credit facility, SEK 538 million and SEK 178 million, respectively, were unutilised at the end of the reporting period. At the end of the reporting period, the Group had met all financial obligations to lenders.

The equity/assets ratio at the end of the reporting period was 33 per cent (33). Equity per share totalled SEK 13.90 at the end of the reporting period, compared with SEK 12.50 at the beginning of the year.

The balance-sheet total at the end of the reporting period was SEK 2,063 million, compared with SEK 1,862 million at the beginning of the year. In addition to changes in working capital, the change during the year was partly attributable to acquisitions, and acquired assets and liabilities are presented in Note 4.

The Parent Company's revenue for the reporting period amounted to SEK 16 million (12) and the loss after financial items totalled SEK –14 million (–20). The loss after tax for the reporting period amounted to SEK –12 million (–16).

Employees

At the end of the reporting period, the number of employees in the Group amounted to 815, compared with 749 at the beginning of the year.

The share

Momentum Group's Class B share (ticker MMGR B) has been listed on Nasdaq Stockholm since 31 March 2022. The share price as of 30 September 2024 was SEK 181.60 (99.00).

On 7 May 2024, the Board decided, with the authorisation of the Annual General Meeting, to establish a repurchase programme to adapt the capital structure and to enable future acquisitions of businesses and operations to be paid for using treasury shares. The decision applies to repurchases of a maximum of 10 per cent of the number of Class B shares outstanding until the 2025 Annual General Meeting.

During the second quarter, Minrox AB was acquired, which was partly paid for through the transfer of 29,260 own Class B shares to the sellers at a price per share of SEK 170.87. The price corresponds to the volumeweighted average price of the company's Class B share on Nasdaq Stockholm during the ten trading days immediately preceding the closing date.

As of 30 September 2024, the holding of Class B treasury shares totalled 1,053,766 shares, corresponding to approximately 2 per cent of the total number of shares. At the end of the period, the share capital amounted to SEK 25.2 million. The distribution by class of share was as follows:

Class of share

Total number of shares after repurchasing 49,427,123
Less: Repurchased Class B shares –1,053,766
Total number of shares before repurchasing 50,480,889
Class B shares (1 vote/share) 49,916,816
Class A shares (10 votes/share) 564,073

Long-term incentive program

The Annual General Meeting in May 2024 resolved to implement a long-term incentive program ("LTIP 2024") aimed at senior executives. The program, which is based on own investment, entails that a maximum of 99,750 Class B shares may be issued, which corresponds to approximately 0.2 percent of all shares and votes in Momentum Group, before any recalculations. Allotment of performance shares is based on a number of different performance criteria, including the development of the company's earnings per share. Read more at momentum.group

Momentum Group's earnings, financial position and strategic position are impacted by a number of factors that are within the control of Momentum Group as well as a number of external factors. The most important external risk factors for Momentum Group are the economic and market situation for the industrial sector. Other risks include the competitive situation in the Group's markets and the significance of efficient logistics with high accessibility, in which the accessibility of the Group's logistics centres are important for certain flows of goods, as well as a dependence on identifying and developing relationships with qualified suppliers. The Group's opportunities and risks also include the completion of acquisitions and related capital requirements and the intangible surplus value that this can result in. Cyberrelated risks are also considered important.

The future trend in the market and in demand may be impacted by the challenging security situation. Delivery times and the availability of components as well as rising prices, interest rates and inflation could also impact market conditions. The Parent Company is impacted indirectly by the above risks and uncertainties through its function in the Group.

Notes

1. Accounting policies

The Interim Report for the Group was prepared in accordance with IFRS and by applying IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Securities Market Act. In addition to the financial statements and associated notes, other disclosures in accordance with IAS 34.16A are also presented in other sections of the report. The Interim Report for the Parent Company was prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Securities Market Act, which conforms to the provisions detailed in RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. The same accounting policies and bases of judgement as in the annual report for 2023 have been applied. IASB has issued additions and amendments to standards that will take effect for the Group on or after 1 January 2024. These additions and amendments are deemed not to be material for the consolidated financial statement.

Parent Company accounting policies

The Parent Company applies the Swedish Annual Accounts Act (1995:1554) and recommendation RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities issued by the Swedish Financial Reporting Board. RFR 2 stipulates that the Parent Company, in the annual accounts for the legal entity, is to apply all IFRS and statements adopted by the EU to the greatest extent possible within the framework of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and with due consideration given to the relationship between accounting and taxation. The recommendation states which exceptions/additions should be made from/to IFRS. Combined, this results in differences between the Group's and the Parent Company's accounting policies in the primary areas of subsidiaries, leased assets, taxes, Group contributions and shareholder contributions.

2. Financial instruments

Momentum Group measures financial instruments at fair value or amortised cost in the balance sheet depending on their classification. In addition to items in financial net debt, financial instruments also include accounts receivable and accounts payable. The carrying amount of all of the Group's financial assets is deemed to be a reasonable approximation of their fair value. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value comprise hedging instruments for which fair value is based on observable market data and which are therefore included in level 2 according to IFRS 13 and liabilities for contingent purchase considerations that are measured using discounted cash flow and which are thus included in level 3.

4. Business combinations

Momentum Group conducted seven business combination with closing during the reporting period. The acquisitions are described on page 9.

Acquisition analysis – business combinations with closing during the reporting period

The total purchase consideration for the acquisitions was SEK 162 million, excluding acquisition costs. Acquisition costs totalling approximately SEK 3 million were recognised in the item other operating expenses. In accordance with the preliminary acquisition analysis presented below, SEK 67 million of the purchase consideration has been allocated to goodwill and SEK 38 million to customer relations. The acquisition analyses for acquisitions closed during the second quarter are preliminary. The acquisition analyses from the first quarter are final.

The allocation to customer relationships is based on the discounted value of future cash flows attributable to each asset class, where an assessment was conducted that included margin, tied-up capital and turnover rate of the customer base, among other things. Goodwill on the acquisition date refers to the amount by which the cost of the acquired net assets exceeds their fair value. Goodwill is motivated by the anticipated future sales performance and profitability as well as the fact that the subsidiaries' position in their current markets is expected to be strengthened.

The acquisition analyses that are considered preliminary are largely because the acquisitions were closed only recently.

Impact on the Group's cash and cash equivalents

In addition to the acquisitions completed during the reporting period, cash flow from the acquisition of subsidiaries has also been affected by the settlement of a deferred payment of SEK 12 million.

2 Non-controlling interest is calculated as the proportional share of the identified net assets.

3 Contingent purchase considerations is recognised at a value corresponding to some 46 per cent in average of a maximum outcome. The outcome of the contingent purchase considerations will be determined continuously during 2025-2027 and is dependent on the earnings of the acquired subsidiary. The potential undiscounted amount to be paid amounts to approximately SEK 17 million.

Performance measures

Momentum Group uses certain financial performance measures in its analysis of the operations and their performance that are not defined in accordance with IFRS. Momentum Group believes that these alternative performance measures provide valuable information for the company's Board of Directors, owners and investors, since they enable a more accurate assessment of current trends and the company's performance when combined with other performance measures calculated in accordance with IFRS.
