CEO Statement
Dear Shareholders,
The fourth quarter developed as expected, with strong revenue and improved earnings. Order intake increased by 1 percent, adjusted for a larger packaging order that was received in the third quarter this year.
Market trends continue to vary between segments and regions.
The outdoor segment has stabilized at a normal level, while the luxury segment continues to face challenges. On a market level, positive developments have been noted in Spain, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the USA. To strengthen our presence in the USA, recruitment processes have been initiated.
The market environment remains uncertain, with several players in the fashion industry undergoing restructurings or closures. At the same time, consolidation within the industry continues, with larger companies acquiring smaller niche businesses.
Investments in Production Capacity and Development
The Board has decided to invest in a new factory in Bangladesh while maintaining the existing facility. Land has been identified, and the planning phase has begun.
The factory in Portugal will also be upgraded, with increased capacity and the implementation of LEAN principles in
production. The project is expected to start in the spring. The total investments are estimated at approximately USD 10 million over two years.
To strengthen the company's offering in the packaging segment, a Packaging Technical Manager has been recruited. This role aims to support sales and ensure efficient supplier relationships within Europe.
Financial Stability and Digital Development
Inventory levels are now on a stable level, but an increase in accounts receivable has been noted in countries with longer payment terms, such as Bangladesh.
Nilörngruppen's digital platform continues to develop and attract increasing interest. Traceability and transparency at the product level have become a central part of customer requirements, especially with the implementation of digital product passports, which is upcoming legislation from EU. The company is therefore continuing to allocate resources to further develop the platform.
Nilörngruppen is well-positioned to navigate both challenges and opportunities in the market during 2025. We continue to invest in growth and strengthen our position as an attractive supplier in the market. I look forward to taking the next step in 2025 together with our fantastic employees
Krister Magnusson CEO
Period October-December
Order Bookings
Order intake decreased by 7 percent to MSEK 238 (256). Adjusted for the packaging orders received in Q3 (compared to 2023), the order intake increased by 1 percent.
Net Revenue
Revenue in SEK increased by 14 percent to MSEK 232 (204). Net sales, adjusted for currency effects, amounted to MSEK 230 (204).
Gross Profit
The gross margin was 46.2 (44.9) percent. Our sourcing organization has performed well, enabling us to improve the margin despite continued price pressure in the market. Variations in gross profit between quarters are primarily due to individual orders and the distribution of product groups, where, for example, packaging has a lower gross profit margin.
Other Income, Costs, and Depreciation
Other operating income amounted to MSEK 8.2 (7.4), mainly related to currency effects. Other operating expenses were MSEK 4.5 (4.7), also primarily related to currency effects.
External costs amounted to MSEK 24.1 (21.5), and personnel costs totalled MSEK 57.9 (55.7). The increase in personnel costs is due to a higher number of employees. Depreciation increased to MSEK 9.4 (7.6).
Operating Profit
Operating profit amounted to MSEK 19.5 (9.2), resulting in an operating margin of 8.4 (4.5) percent.
Net Finance Items, Taxes, and Profit for the Period
Financial net amounted to MSEK -0.4 (-2.0).
Taxes amounted to MSEK -5.3 (-1.5), corresponding to an average tax rate of 27.9 percent. The result for the period was MSEK 13.7 (5.7), and earnings per share were SEK 1.21 (0.50).
Cash Flow, Capital Expenditures, Financing, and Liquidity
Cash flow from operating activities amounted to MSEK 32.0 (33.2). Cash flow from investing activities was MSEK -6.4 (- 4.1).
Segments
As shown in the segment report in Note 3, there was an increase in Sweden and Asia, while revenue in Europe declined.
Operating profit increased across all markets.
Period January-December
Order Bookings
Order intake increased by 13 percent to MSEK 935 (828).
Net Revenue and Result
Net sales in SEK increased by 9 percent to MSEK 945 (870). Net sales, adjusted for currency effects, amounted to MSEK 952 (870), representing an underlying increase of 9 percent. The gross margin was 45.2 (43.6) percent.
Other operating income amounted to MSEK 18.2 (25.4). External costs increased to MSEK 86.8 (80.4). Personnel costs increased to MSEK 226.7 (214.9).
Depreciation increased to MSEK 34.6 (31.2).
Operating profit amounted to MSEK 82.9 (63.0), resulting in an operating margin of 8.8 (7.2) percent.
Taxes amounted to MSEK -19.1 (-13.2). The net profit after tax was MSEK 58.9 (39.4).
Segments
As shown in the segment report in Note 3, there was a decline in Sweden and Europe, while revenue in Asia increased.
Operating profit decreased in Sweden but increased in Europe and Asia. This is attributed to a growing customer base and higher volumes in our factories, particularly in Bangladesh. The development of the segments is affected by where the clients place their production.
Equity
The Group's equity amounts to MSEK 350.4 (294.8). The change is attributable to the period's net profit of MSEK 58.9, a dividend of MSEK 11.4, a revaluation of the defined benefit pension plan by MSEK 1.6, and translation differences for the period of MSEK 6.4. The translation difference is a net effect from translating equity in foreign subsidiaries to SEK, positively affected by the weakening of the Swedish krona.
Cash Flow, Capital Expenditures, Financing, and Liquidity
Cash flow from operating activities amounted to MSEK 94.2 (89.1). Inventory levels have now normalized to a good level, positively impacting cash flow during 2024. Cash flow from investing activities amounted to MSEK -22.2 (-17.7).
Net cash (debt) at the end of the period amounted to MSEK 19 (7), where the IFRS 16 leasing standard increased interest-bearing liabilities by MSEK 41 (24). Comparable figures, excluding the IFRS 16 reclassification, show net cash of MSEK 60 (17). The dividend reduced cash by MSEK 11.4 (57.0).
Personnel
The average number of employees in the Group was 661 (593), of which 265 (250) were women (as of the end of the year). Of the total number of employees, 57 percent work in production and warehousing.
Transactions with Related Parties
No transactions between Nilörngruppen and related parties that have materially affected the group's results and financial position have taken place during the period apart from paying out dividend. The parent company's transactions with subsidiaries involve design, product development, IT, and other services.
Significant events during the quarter
The Board has decided to proceed with an investment in a new factory in Bangladesh, as well as the upgrade and expansion of production capacity at the Portugal factory. The estimated investment is MUSD 11 over two years.
The Board has decided to propose to the Annual General Meeting a dividend of SEK 1.50 (1.00) per share, corresponding to MSEK 17.1 (11.4) which corresponds to 29 percent of net profit. The goal is to build up a cash position for future investments in Bangladesh, Portugal and Nilörn:CONNECT.
Parent Company
The parent company's operations mainly involve managing group-wide functions such as branding and design, product development, finance, administration, information, and IT. The average number of employees amounted to 29 (28) persons.
Net sales for the year amounted to MSEK 43.4 (35.6). The operating result was MSEK -6.2 (-4.5), and the result after tax amounted to MSEK 39.3 (33.2).
Risks and Uncertainties
With its international operations, Nilörngruppen is continually exposed to various financial risks. The significant risks and uncertainties Nilörngruppen is exposed to include currency risks, political risks in individual countries, credit risks, and IT security, as outlined in Nilörngruppen's 2023 annual report, note 2.

4. Definitions of alternative key financial indicators
ESMA (The European Securities and Markets Authority) has published guidelines for alternative key financial indicators for companies with securities listed on a regulated market within EU. These guidelines shall be applied to alternative key financial indicators used starting 3 October 2016. Reference is made in the annual accounts to a number of non–IFRS performance metrics used to help investors as well as management to analyse the company's operations. These financial metrics should therefore not be seen as replacements for metrics defined according to IFRS. Since all companies do not calculate financial metrics in the same way, they are not always comparable with metrics used by other companies. These financial metrics should therefore not be seen as replacements for metrics defined according to IFRS. We describe below the various non–IFRS performance metrics used as a complement to the financial information reported in accordance with IFRS and how these metrics have been used.
| Non IFRS-metric | Definition | Calculation | Justification |
|---|---|---|---|
| Average Equity | Equity at the beginning of the period, plus equity at the end of the period, divided by two |
(294 822+350 389) / 2 | The metric is the difference between the Group's assets and liabilities, which is equivalent to consolidated equity contributed by owners and the consolidated aggregated profit. This metric is used to report the capital at tributable to the Group's owners. |
| Average Number of Employees | Average number of yearly em ployed |
This metric is used to measure the development of the Group's work force. |
|
| Revenue Growth | Net revenue at the end of the period, minus net revenue at the beginning of the period, di vided by net revenue at the beginning of the period. |
(944 670 – 869 769) / 869 769 |
This metric is used to analyse profit ability over time, given the resources attributable to the Parent Company's owners. |
| Return on Equity | Profit after tax for the past 12 months as a percentage of av erage equity in the corresponding period |
82 852 / 322 605 | This metric is used to analyse profit ability over time, given the resources attributable to the Parent Company's owners. |
| Gross profit | Net sales for the period minus cost of raw materials, consum ables and merchandise |
944 670 – 517 151 | The measure is used to measure the company's profitability and ability to generate revenue. |
| Net cash | Interest–bearing receivables, cash and cash equivalents |
100 814-23 156 -58 408 | The metric shows the total debt fi nancing and is used as a comple ment to judge the feasibility of paying dividends, to implement strategic in vestments and to gauge the Group's ability to meet its financial obliga tions. |
| Interest–bearing net cash and cash equivalents/liabilities excl FRS16 |
Interest–bearing receivables, cash and cash equivalents, re duced by interest–bearing liabilities. |
100 814-23 156 -58 408 + 40 766 |
The measure shows the same thing as Net cash but is adjusted for the ef fect of IFRS16, which is only an accounting technical entry. |
| Operating Margin | Operating result in percent of net revenue. |
82 852 / 944 670 | This metric is used to measure oper ative profitability. |
| Equity Ration | Equity in percent of balance sheet total. |
350 389 / 597 492 | This measure shows the proportion of the company's total assets fi nanced with equity by its shareholders. A high equity ratio is an indication of financial strength. |
| Profit Margin | Result before tax in percent of net revenue. |
78 034 / 944 670 | This metric makes is possible to measure the profitability no matter tax rate |
