"Order intake increased during the third quarter by 30 percent compared with a relatively weak corresponding quarter in the preceding year, mainly driven by a strong performance by Pattern Generators, and supported by positive currency effects. Net sales increased 23 percent, with good growth in High Flex and High Volume, here again supported by positive currency effects. EBIT increased to SEK 203 million with an EBIT margin of 17 percent and I am pleased to note that all divisions reported double-digit EBIT margins for the second consecutive quarter," says Anders Lindqvist, President and CEO.
Outlook 2022
It is the Board of Directors' revised opinion that consolidated net sales for 2022 will be at a level of SEK 5 billion at prevailing exchange rates*. Due to the product mix of announced orders in Pattern Generators with deliveries in 2022, the Group's EBIT margin is, as before, expected to be slightly above the previous long-term financial target of >15 percent.
*The previous opinion was of net sales of SEK 5 billion, based on exchange rates at the end of 2021.

CEO comments

Order intake increased during the third quarter by 30 percent compared with a relatively weak corresponding quarter in the preceding year, mainly driven by a strong performance by Pattern Generators, and supported by positive currency effects. Net sales increased 23 percent, with good growth in High Flex and High Volume, here again supported by positive currency effects. EBIT increased to SEK 203 million with an EBIT margin of 17 percent and I am pleased to note that all divisions reported double-digit EBIT margins for the second consecutive quarter.
In conjunction with Mycronic's Capital Markets Day in September, we presented new, ambitious growth and profitability targets. We also highlighted the previously communicated climate target and presented it together with the financial targets. By 2030, we will double net sales and EBIT while halving our own $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ emissions. The Group's EBIT margin is to be above 20 percent, the EBIT margin for individual divisions is to be above 10 percent and we undertake to set new climate targets in accordance with Science Based Targets.
At the end of September, we renewed a revolving credit facility of SEK 1,000 million until September 2026 to secure flexibility in connection with business opportunities. In total, we continue to have access to SEK 2,000 million in bank financing, though at present the credit facility is not utilized.
Pattern Generators received its first order for a Prevision 8 Entry Evo during the quarter. This is a new model in the Prevision Evo series of mask writers to write photomasks for displays up to mask size G8. Third quarter order intake was strong and the division received orders for seven mask

writers: one Prevision 8 Entry Evo, two Prevision Lite 8 Evos and four SLXs. At the same time, one SLX was delivered.
Demand remained at a healthy level for High Flex during the third quarter, despite an uncertain macroeconomic environment. Europe has continued to show positive development, with particularly strong demand noted in Italy. North America also performed well. High Flex's sales and service center in Mexico is expected to be operational in the fourth quarter.
For High Volume, suppliers to the electric car industry witnessed high demand and continued to invest. Consumer electronics remained weak and the division's customers in this industry are thus postponing new investments.
For Global Technologies, customers' investments in China continued in substrates, which meant that the division's electrical test equipment for substrates continued to demonstrate strong performance. In parallel, demand for test equipment for PCBs was stable, with the decline in investments in consumer electronics offset by demand driven by high layer count PCBs. Demand in die bonding from China in telecom and datacom developed negatively.
During the quarter, our die bonding operations within Global Technologies struggled with component shortages, while the other divisions were largely successful in delivering as planned. The high energy prices have not had a material direct impact on cost.
The revised opinion of the Board of Directors and myself is that consolidated net sales for 2022 remain at a level of SEK 5 billion, but based on prevailing exchange rates, where a softer SEK has compensated for weaker demand in China.

In September, Mycronic held a Capital Markets Day at the company's headquarters, during which new financial and sustainability targets were presented. The financial targets state that Mycronic is to achieve net sales of SEK 10 billion and that EBIT is to exceed SEK 2 billion by 2030. In addition, the Group's EBIT margin is to be above 20 percent, while the EBIT margin for individual divisions is to be above 10 percent.
During the quarter, the company repurchased 113,900 of its own shares for delivery to participants of LTIP 2022. At the end of September, a revolving credit facility with Nordea of SEK 1,000 million was renewed until September 2026.
The Group's order intake increased in the third quarter by 30 percent to SEK 1,609 (1,242) million, mainly driven by a favorable performance by Pattern Generators, and supported by positive currency effects. For the first nine months, order intake increased 30 percent to SEK 4,253 (3,272) million. Order intake excluding acquisitions and divestment increased 31 percent in the quarter and 22 percent for the first nine months of the year. The Group's order backlog was SEK 2,542 (2,030) million at the end of the quarter.
Net sales increased 23 percent to SEK 1,214 (986) million, with good growth in High Flex and High Volume, here again supported by positive currency effects. For the first nine months, net sales increased 8 percent to SEK 3,622 (3,341) million. Net sales were positively impacted by currency effects of SEK 127 million for the quarter and SEK 315 million for the first nine months.
In the third quarter 2021, the Group's gross margin was negatively affected by SEK 26 million in acquisition-related costs due to the acquisition of atg L&M. This partly explains the improvement in gross margin this year to 45 (41) percent. The gross margin for the first nine months was 45 (52) percent.
EBIT increased to SEK 203 (106) million during the quarter, corresponding to an EBIT margin of 17 (11) percent. EBIT for the first nine months of the year amounted to SEK 632 (845) million, corresponding to an EBIT margin of 17 (25) percent. Acquisition-related costs amounted to SEK 17 (42) million for the quarter and SEK 49 (73) million for the first nine months of the year.
Cash flow and financial position
Consolidated cash and cash equivalents at the end of September amounted to SEK 906 (887) million. Cash flow amounted to SEK 153 (-444) million for the first nine months of the year. Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 416 (758) million. Working capital increased SEK 203 million, driven by trade receivables and inventory.
Investments during the first nine months of the year generated a positive cash flow of SEK 104 million, compared with a negative cash flow of SEK 1,093 million in the preceding year. The divestment of AEi in February generated SEK 216 million in cash flow, while the capitalization of product development amounted to SEK 25 (33) million and investments in tangible assets to SEK 87 (29) million. Financing activities utilized SEK 366 (108) million, of which SEK 294 million related to dividends to shareholders.
Sustainability
In conjunction with Mycronic's Capital Market Day, the company's climate target was presented together with the financial targets. Mycronic's ambition is to cut $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ emissions from production sites, offices, transportation and travel with 50 percent by 2030. In addition, Mycronic has undertaken to set Science Based Targets.

Pattern Generators received its first order for a Prevision 8 Entry Evo during the quarter. This is a new model in the Prevision Evo series of mask writers to write photomasks for displays up to mask size G8. Unlike Prevision Lite 8 Evo, this model is supplied with flexible configuration options, which allows the customers to upgrade to a Prevision 8 Evo in order to produce more advanced photomasks.
Third quarter order intake was strong and the division received orders for seven mask writers: one Prevision 8 Entry Evo, two Prevision Lite 8 Evos and four SLXs. Order intake increased 76 percent to SEK 718 (407) million. For the first nine months of the year, order intake increased 50 percent to SEK 1,276 (849) million.
At the end of the September, the order backlog amounted to SEK 1,106 (759) million and contained 15 systems with planned deliveries as follows:

PATTERN GENERATORS MARKET AREA
PHOTOMASKS FOR DISPLAYS
In 2021 the market showed growth of 14.0 percent, from USD 821 million to USD 936 million5^{,} 10. The positive trend is largely related to the increase in demand for photomasks in 2021, since the display manufacturers began to re-focus on developing new models after a period with priority on production of existing models. In addition, there is an ongoing shift toward a higher proportion of advanced displays that require more, and more advanced, photomasks. The expectations for 2022 are that the photomask market will continue to grow and show positive growth of 9.8 percent to USD 1,028 million5^{,} 10. The market is driven primarily by a higher proportion of advanced photomasks for AMOLED displays. The forecast for the total area growth amounts to an average of 2.4 percent per year for 2021-20265. Strong growth for AMOLED photomasks is expected, with an annual average area growth of 6.0 percent for 2021-20265, which drives the need for photomasks produced by advanced mask writers.
PHOTOMASKS FOR SEMICONDUCTORS
In 2021, the market showed growth of 16.2 percent, from USD 5.3 billion to USD 6.1 billion6. Despite the pandemic, the market trend was strong, primarily driven by robust growth for the most advanced photomasks, although the market for mature technology nodes addressed by laser-based mask writers was also positive. The expectations for 2022 are that the market will continue to perform positively, with growth of 18.4 percent to USD 7.2 billion6. The market will also remain primarily driven by higher volumes of the most advanced photomasks, which are mainly produced by E-beam mask writers.

Notes
NOTE 1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The 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. The accounting principles of the segments are the same as for the Group, with the exception of IFRS 16 Leases. The segments and the Parent Company recognize lease payments as a cost on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. The right-of-use asset and the lease liability are thus not reported in the balance sheet.
The nature of financial assets and liabilities is, in all material respects, the same as on December 31, 2021. The carrying amounts and fair values are deemed to essentially correspond with one another.
NOTE 2 TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
Transactions with related parties are described in Note 8 of the 2021 Annual Report. The scope and focus of these transactions did not change significantly during the period.
NOTE 3 RISKS AND UNCERTAINTY FACTORS
There are a number of risks and uncertainty factors of an operational and financial character to which the Group is exposed through its operations, which are described in the 2021 Annual Report. Mycronic is for example exposed to country-specific risks such as political decisions or overarching changes to the regulatory framework, both geographically and product-wise. Mycronic is also exposed to effects from the COVID-19 outbreak.

Review report
Mycronic AB (publ), corporate identity number 556351-2374
Introduction
We have reviewed the condensed interim report for Mycronic AB (publ) as at September 30, 2022 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.
