Interim Report January–September 2019
MYCRONIC
CEO comments

These days, I am often asked how Mycronic has been affected by the trade dispute between the USA and China, and how the Assembly Solutions business area has been affected by the slowdown in the electronics industry. In fact, the impact on Mycronic has been limited so far, which is reflected in the 52 percent increase in order intake during the third quarter. In some cases, the effects in the short term may even be
positive, for example when customers in China decide to take back previously outsourced production and therefore need to invest in new production equipment.
During the quarter, the Dispensing division in Assembly Solutions demonstrated a favourable performance in China and broadened its offering and customer base to new segments by adapting products to satisfy market demand. Net sales in the business area grew by 4 percent adjusted for currency effects. Assembly Solutions continues to focus on work to improve profitability and achieve an EBIT margin of above 10 percent. This is for example done by realizing synergies at various levels and by developing the aftermarket business.
Pattern Generators received an order during the third quarter for a limited Prevision 10 mask writer. During the quarter, one mask writer was delivered, compared with two mask writers during the corresponding quarter last year, which led to lower net sales and EBIT margin.
In April, the Prevision Lite 8 became available in the market, after which Evo was launched at the end of the third quarter, representing Mycronic's new control platform. Evo will form a cornerstone of our mask writers and strengthen our customer offering.

On October 23, SLX was launched, a new laser mask writer for the semiconductor industry, which means we are again supplying newly developed systems to this market. We expect good future growth based on long-term and stable trends and a growing need to replace and upgrade the installed base of laser mask writers. With its investments in recent years in the product portfolio for mask writers for displays, Mycronic has established technology and know-how that can be reused, which creates very favorable conditions to also leverage the opportunities in the semiconductor segment. With our existing installed base of semiconductor mask writers with the majority of our customers, we know the market very well and have in-depth expertise of the technical requirements that must be fulfilled. This launch has broadened our customer offering for Pattern Generators and further confirms our position in the market for mask writers.
It is gratifying to see that we are, in many ways, harvesting the fruits of our investments in product development. These investments will continue, even if the distribution between Assembly Solutions and Pattern Generators will shift over time.

MRSI Systems included as of June 1, 2018.
Assembly Solutions
In the third quarter, order intake for Assembly Solutions was strong and increased 59 percent compared with the corresponding period in 2018. During the first nine months of the year, order intake increased 34 percent compared with the corresponding period last year, with growth of 23 percent excluding acquisitions. The strong order intake contributed to an increase in the backlog of orders by 69 percent to a new record level of SEK 879 (520) million.
Net sales increased 10 percent during the quarter to SEK 584 (533) million. Organic growth was 4 percent, excluding positive currency effects of SEK 27 million. For the nine-month period, net sales increased 21 percent to SEK 1,687 (1,391) million, which corresponds to organic growth of 8 percent, excluding positive currency effects in the amount of SEK 92 million.
During the third quarter, EBIT amounted to SEK 46 (79) million, corresponding to an EBIT margin of 8 (15) percent. This included SEK 36 million in costs attributable to impairment of intangible assets in the form of customer relationships in AEi, due to a slight downward adjustment to growth expectations for the global automotive industry. EBIT also includes a positive effect of SEK 50 million from a revalued earn-out related to the acquisition of MRSI in the second quarter of 2018. MRSI has developed positively with continuing healthy market growth since the acquisition, but the assessment is that the criteria for the contingent consideration have not been met. By comparison, the third quarter of 2018 included a positive effect of SEK 55 million from a revaluation of contingent considerations related to the acquisition of AEi. For the first nine months of the year, EBIT reached SEK 68 (52) million with an EBIT margin of 4 (4) percent.
Acquisition-related costs, including impairment of intangible assets and changes in value of contingent considerations, had a negative impact of SEK 4 million on the result in the third quarter, compared with a positive impact of SEK 27 million in the corresponding period last year. Acquisition-related costs for the first nine months of the year had a negative impact of SEK 34 (20) million on the result.
Underlying EBIT amounted to SEK 50 (52) million in the quarter, corresponding to an EBIT margin of 9 (10) percent. In the first nine months, the underlying EBIT amounted to SEK 102 (72) million, corresponding to an EBIT margin of 6 (5) percent.
Research and development consists of existing product development and investments in future growth. Development costs for the third quarter amounted to SEK 81 (74) million and SEK 244 (237) million for the first nine months.
During the quarter, the business area received a number of orders for several systems as a result of a successful cross sales strategy and has begun to benefit from the compact pick-and-place machine models MY300HX and MY300EX launched earlier this year. The focus for these machines is to

Pattern Generators
Order intake for the quarter increased 41 percent compared with the third quarter of 2018 and included an order for a limited Prevision 10 system, compared with orders for two multipurpose systems and a major upgrade during the third quarter of 2018. For the first nine months, order intake amounted to SEK 802 (797) million. The order backlog amounted to SEK 760 (1,131) million and includes seven systems, two of which have planned deliveries for 2019 and five for 2020.
One mask writer was delivered in the third quarter compared with two mask writers in the third quarter of the preceding year. During the first nine months of the year, delivery was completed of six mask writers and a major upgrade, compared with five mask writers during the corresponding period in 2018. Net sales decreased 44 percent during the quarter to SEK 317 (563) million. For the first nine months, net sales increased 7 percent to SEK 1,438 (1,338) million. The nine-month period was positively impacted by currency effects of SEK 42 million.
EBIT for the quarter declined 57 percent to SEK 153 (357) million, corresponding to an EBIT margin of 48 (64) percent. The result was affected primarily by lower delivery volumes. Fluctuations between quarters are natural for the business area's operations, as orders for and deliveries of advanced mask writers are irregular. This is why the trend should be considered over a longer period. EBIT for the first nine months of the year increased 4 percent to SEK 856 (821) million, corresponding to an EBIT margin of 60 (61) percent.
Development costs increased to SEK 46 (36) million for the quarter and SEK 156 (97) million for the nine-month period.
The third quarter marked the launch of Evo, Mycronic's new control platform for mask writers. Evo is a new electronics architecture together with new software that enables increased automation, for example in robot solutions and increased production yield for customers in the manufacture of photomasks. Evo also enables a substantial increase in opportunities for data analysis and will be a cornerstone of Mycronic's mask writers in the future.
On October 10, after the end of the period, an order was received for two Prevision Lite 8 Evo mask writers for delivery in 2021, representing Mycronic's first orders for this product. On October 18, an order was received for a Prevision 8 Evo mask writer for delivery in 2020.
SLX was launched on October 23, and is Mycronic's new mask writer for the semiconductor industry. The assessment is that future market growth will be healthy and that the right conditions exist to leverage business opportunities in this segment.
Interim Report January-September 2019
MYCRONIC
The electronics industry
The global electronics industry grew 5.9 percent in 2018 to USD 2,132 billion¹. For 2018, the semiconductor market grew 13.7 percent, corresponding to USD 469 billion¹. This increase can be attributed to the number of semiconductor circuits manufactured and higher prices for memory circuits.
Outlook
Annual growth for the electronics industry is forecast at 3.3 percent for the period 2018–2023¹. Segments with the strongest expected growth during this five-year period are electronics for wireless communication infrastructure, data storage, the automotive industry, consumer electronics and industrial applications. For 2019, growth in the electronics industry is forecast at -0.1 percent. The semiconductor market declined by 15.0 percent¹ in the first half of 2019 compared with the first half of 2018 and is expected to contract by 13.6 percent¹ to USD 405 billion for the full-year 2019. The semiconductor market is expected to grow 7.2 percent in the second half of 2019 compared with the first half of the year and is forecast to be positive during the 2019–2023 period as a whole, with average annual growth of 6.4 percent¹.

Assembly Solutions
SMT and dispensing market area
The global market for SMT equipment has annual sales of approximately USD 5,300 million⁶. The segment SMT robots for component mounting grew 17 percent in 2018 to USD 3,070 million². The market declined 12 percent in the first half of 2019 compared with the corresponding period in the previous year, driven primarily by a negative trend in Europe, China and Japan. The dispensing equipment market had sales of USD 780 million³ in 2018. Mycronic’s product portfolio comprises production systems for component mounting, non-contact high-speed dispensing of
solder paste, inspection equipment, automated storage solutions, and equipment for dispensing, including coating of circuit boards.
Assembly automation market area
AEi offers automated production solutions for assembly and testing of camera modules. A growing segment within the electronics industry is electronics for the automotive industry, which includes camera modules for advanced driver support, or Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). Manufacture of camera modules in 2018 amounted to 165 million units and the forecast for 2023 is for production of 315 million units, corresponding to annual growth of 14 percent³.
MRSI Systems offers die bonding equipment and is operating in a fast-growing sub-segment with extremely high precision.
Pattern Generators
An earlier assessment of the display market for 2019, with growth of 1 percent and stabilization of prices, has been revised to an expectation of growth of -7 percent⁴ and a continuing surplus of displays, which is exerting downward pressure on prices for both LCD and AMOLED displays. The trend toward a larger share of advanced displays will, however, continue. In 2019, AMOLED is expected to grow 7 percent to USD 25 billion⁴, driven by an increased share of AMOLED displays and that more manufacturers are starting to produce displays based on this technology. Meanwhile, the total display area is also increasing, driven by larger screens and more screens in new products.
Photomasks for displays market area
The market grew by 12 percent to USD 814 million in 2018 and the forecast for 2019 is for growth of 9 percent to USD 886 million⁵,⁷. Growth is driven by a higher proportion of advanced photomasks for AMOLED and an increased need for G10 photomasks in China⁵. The forecast for total area growth is an average of 2.3 percent per year for 2018–2023⁵. Strong growth for AMOLED photomasks is expected, with an annual area growth of 19 percent for 2018–2023⁵, which drives the need for photomasks produced by Prevision 80 and Prevision 800 systems.

Interim Report January–September 2019
MYCRONIC
Notes
Note 1 Accounting policies
This interim report for the Group has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting together with applicable provisions in the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with Chapter 9 of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. For the Group and Parent Company, accounting policies, valuation policies and assumptions were applied in accordance with the latest annual report with the exception of the changes described below. The accounting principles of the segments are the same as for the Group with the exception of IFRS 16 Leases, see below.
The nature of financial assets and liabilities is in all material respects the same as on December 31, 2018. As was the case at the end of 2018, the carrying amounts and fair values are deemed to essentially correspond with one another.
Effects of IFRS 16 Leases
As of January 1, 2019, IFRS 16 Leases replaces the previous standard, IAS 17 Leases and the associated interpretations IFRIC 4, SIC 15 and SIC 27. IFRS 16 entails that a majority of all leases are recognized in the statement of financial position. When the standard came into force, Mycronic applied the modified retrospective approach, entailing that comparative information from prior periods is not presented. The lease liability comprised the discounted remaining lease payments at January 1, 2019. For all leases, the right-of-use asset was an amount corresponding to the lease liability adjusted for prepaid or accrued lease payments recognized in the statement of financial position on the first day of application. Accordingly, the transition to IFRS 16 had no effect on equity.
Mycronic has elected to apply the practical exemptions regarding leases where the underlying asset has a low value and for leases with a lease term of less than 12 months. These leases are not included in amounts recognized in the statement of financial position. Nor are leases included that were originally of a term longer than 12 months but which end in 2019. Mycronic's material leases currently primarily comprise rented premises, but also vehicles and office equipment. Rented premises are presented as one class of underlying assets, and vehicles and office equipment under Other, as they are not considered material individually. In the transition to IFRS 16, these leases are recognized in the statement of financial position, which involves an increase in the Group's total assets as a result of the addition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The lease payments recognized earlier as other external expenses have been replaced by depreciation costs for the right-of-use assets, which are recognized in EBIT and interest on the lease liability, which is recognized as a financial expense. The lease fee is divided between repayment of the lease liability and payment of interest.
The Parent Company utilizes the exception included in RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities and all leases have continued to be recognized as operating leases. Moreover, IFRS 16 is not applied in segment reporting.
In the transition to IFRS 16, all remaining lease payments were measured at present value applying Mycronic's incremental borrowing rate. The average borrowing rate on January 1, 2019 was 1.3 percent. When the standard came into force, the following adjustments were recognized in the Group's statement of financial position:
| Right-of-use assets | SEK 179.5 million |
|---|---|
| of which Rented premises | SEK 168.4 million |
| Prepaid expenses | SEK -5.4 million |
| Lease liabilities | SEK 174.1 million |
Reconciliation of operating lease obligations, SEK million
| Future lease charges for operating leases as of December 31 2018 | 193.0 |
|---|---|
| Adjustment of IAS 17 lease payments | -5.4 |
| Contracts regarding short-term leases charged against profit | -7.3 |
| Contracts regarding leases of low value assets charged against profit | -1.0 |
| Discounting with the application of the Group's incremental borrowing rate | -5.2 |
Reported lease liability as of January 1 2019 174.1

Mycronic is exposed to country-specific risks such as political decisions or overarching changes to the regulatory framework, both geographically and product-wise.
Note 4 Events after the end of the period
An order was received on October 10 for two Prevision Lite 8 Evo mask writers, which are Mycronic's first orders for this product. On October 18, an order was received for a Prevision 8 Evo mask writer. SLX was launched on October 23, and is Mycronic's new mask writer for the semiconductor market.

Review report
To: Mycronic AB (publ), corporate identity number 556351-2374
Introduction
We have reviewed the condensed interim report for Mycronic AB (publ) as at September 30, 2019 and for the nine months period then ended. The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements, ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act regarding the Group, and in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act regarding the Parent Company.
