• Nilörngruppen AB acquires Bally Labels AG in Switzerland. The company, which has previously been a partner company of Nilörn, will be consolidated with Nilörngruppen from 2023. The acquisition will have a limited but positive effect in 2023.
• The Board of Directors has decided to propose to the Annual General Meeting a dividend of SEK 5.00 (5.00) per share, equivalent to MSEK 57.0 (57.0).


Dear Shareholders,
Despite a slightly weaker finish, it is gratifying to note that the year is the best in Nilorn Group's history with sales of SEK 943 million and an operating profit of SEK 136 million. This surpasses the previous year, which was then our best year ever. Sales increased by 8 percent (adjusted for currency effects) and operating profit by 14 percent.
The fourth quarter developed weaker with a lower order intake in Q3 affecting sales, which decreased by 15 percent compared with the corresponding period last year. Operating profit of just over SEK 14 million is burdened by bonus costs because of the strong full-year result. It is hardly a surprise that the Nilorn Group is also affected by the prevailing uncertain external climate where the end consumer is more cautious in combination with generally high stock levels of end products at some retailers and brand owners. During the year, the development has been strong, especially in Germany, France and Italy, and a little weaker in England and the Nordic countries.
Most of our customers remain optimistic about 2023, but considering developments in the last quarter, we expect a slightly weaker development in the first quarter compared to last year. The progress we have made in the luxury segment in Italy and France is expected to have an effect later in the year and contribute to both sales and earnings.
The work of strengthening the organization and creating a clear structure continues. Nilorn has full focus on and with the goal of being a leader in sustainability. This means investing in systems and organization to guide and help our customers reach their goals. I am convinced that our investments are crucial for Nilorn to be an attractive supplier and that we thus have the conditions to maintain good growth in the coming years.
Nilörngruppen's own production in Bangladesh and Portugal has been an important part of the company's success in recent years. To enable continued profitable growth, we are investigating the possibility of expanding in Bangladesh by building a completely new factory and expanding our factory in Portugal. Nilörngruppen's strong balance sheet enables these investments, while the good result for the year means that the dividend is proposed to be unchanged at SEK 5 per share.
Our employees continue to do a fantastic job of dealing with the challenges that constantly arise, while adapting and streamlining the organization, introducing new ways of working and introducing new colleagues. We build and look to the future with confidence.

Order bookings decreased by 18 percent to MSEK 228 (277).
Revenue decreased by 15 percent to MSEK 199 (234). Revenue adjusted for currency effects amounted to MSEK 178, i.e. an underlying organic decrease of 24 percent
The gross margin was 44.0 (45.4) percent and has been negatively affected by lower volumes, product mix and as previously announced, increased shipping costs raw material and energy prices.
Other income amounted to MSEK 14.3 (4.8) and other operating expenses of MSEK 9.6 which is mainly attributable to currency. The external costs decreased to MSEK 18.3 (19.4) and personnel costs increased to MSEK 52.7 (42.9) where the majority is attributable to currency, more employees and booking of bonuses. Depreciation decreased to MSEK 6.9 (7.0).
Operating profit amounted to MSEK 14.3 (40.1), for an operating margin of 7.2 (17.1) percent.
Net finance items amounted to MSEK −2.0 (-1.2). Taxes paid amounted to MSEK −3.2 (-8.6) which is a function of different tax rates in different countries. The period's profit amounted to MSEK 9.1 (30.4) and earnings per share amounted to SEK 0.80 (2.66).
Cash flow from operating activities amounted to MSEK -3.3 (18.4). Cash flow from investment activities amounted to MSEK -2.2 (3.0).
Consolidated equity amounts to MSEK 333.2 (278.2). The increase is attributable to the profit in the amount of MSEK +101, paid out dividend of MSEK -57.0, the period's translation difference of MSEK 12.7 and revaluation of benefit-based pension plan of MSEK -1.8. The translation difference is the net effect of conversion of equity in the non-Swedish subsidiaries to SEK and has been positively affected by a weakening of the Swedish krona.
Order bookings increased by 28% and amounted to MSEK 983 (864).
Net revenue increased by 20 percent to MSEK 943 (788). Net revenue adjusted for currency effects amounted to MSEK 853 (788), i.e. an underlying organic increase of 8 percent. The gross margin was 44 (46) percent.
The Swedish krona has weakened against most currencies, which has a positive impact on consolidated sales. However, the effect on net profit is minimal, as the Group's income is met by costs in local currency and only the net profit is converted into SEK.
Other income amounted to MSEK 32.4 (11.9). External costs increased to MSEK 71.2 (62.0). Personnel costs increased to MSEK 194.3 (163.9). Depreciation increased to MSEK 29.9 (25.9)
Operating profit amounted to MSEK 136.4 (119.5), which translates to an operating margin of 14.5 (15.2) percent.
Taxes paid amounted to MSEK -31.4 (-28.8), for a total tax expense of 23.7 (24.8) percent. Profit after taxes amounted to MSEK 101 (87.4).
As shown in Note 2, all segments has increased in terms of turnover and operating profit.
Cash flow from operating activities amounted to MSEK 26.7 (78.1). Cash flow from investment activities amounted to MSEK −14.7 (−11.7). The investments are mainly attributable to continued inventories in new ERP systems and machines in Portugal. Net liabilities at the end of the period excluding IFRS16 stood at MSEK 33 (75). IFRS 16 has increased interestbearing liabilities by MSEK 22 and comparable numbers not including the effect of IFRS 16 is net liabilities of MSEK 11 (41).
The Group's inventories have increased as a function of currency effects, increased product range, new customers and lower sales in the fourth quarter.
The average number of employees in the Group was 587 (540), of whom 247 (219) were women. Of the total number of employees 317 (303) persons or 54 (56) percent are active in production and warehouses. The increase in personnel is attributable to production and warehouse staff, sales/backoffice, but also group functions such as purchasing, CSR and IT.
There were no transactions between the Nilörn Group and closely related parties affecting the Group's profit and financial position during the period, except for dividends to the Parent Company's shareholders. The Parent Company's transactions with subsidiaries refer to design, product development, IT and other services.

The Parent Company's operations largely consist of handling group-wide functions, such as branding and design, product development, finances, administration, information and IT. The average number of employees was 26 (23). Net revenue for the period amounted to MSEK 32.9 (29.6). The operating result was MSEK −6.2 (−2.8) and profit after taxes was MSEK 58.5 (19.8) with most of the profit attributable to dividends from subsidiaries.
Nilörngruppen AB acquires Bally Labels AG in Switzerland together with two of the employees who will own 10 percent each. The acquisition will be consolidated into Nilörngruppen as of 2023. The purchase price, which is not disclosed, is conditional on certain external sales and will be paid in three instalments over three years. As a partner company, most of the sales are already consolidated in Nilorn's figures and the acquisition will therefore have a limited but positive effect on Nilorn's earnings.
The Board of Directors has decided to propose to the Annual General Meeting a dividend of SEK 5.00 (5.00) per share, equivalent to MSEK 57.0 (57.0). The proposal is equivalent to dividend of 56 (65) percent.
With its international operations, Nilorrngruppen is constantly exposed to various financial risks. The significant risks and uncertainties to which the Nilorn Group is exposed are currency risks, political risks in individual countries, credit risks and IT security, as shown in Nilörngruppen's Annual Report 2021, Note 2.
Nilörngruppen does not have an appointed election committee since the ownership structure is clear as Traction AB owns the majority of the votes. However, shareholders are always welcome to submit comments and/or suggestions with respect to the composition of the Board of Directors to the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Petter Stillström, telephone +46-8-506 289 00.

As was the case with the Annual Accounts for 2020, the Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by EU, recommendation No 1 (RFR 1) of the Swedish Financial Reporting Board. As was the case with the Annual Accounts for 2020, the Parent Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and recommendation No 2 (RFR 2) of the Swedish Financial Reporting Board. The Year-end Report is prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Disclosures in accordance with IAS 34.16 are found in the financial reports and its notes as well as in the other parts of the interim report.
From 1 January 2019 Nilörngruppen applies IFRS 16 Leases. The Group has applied the simplified transition method and has thus not recalculated comparative data for 2018. The simplification rule, that the right-of-use asset shall be equivalent to the lease liability, has been applied in the transition. No transition effect is therefore reported in equity. A complete description of the accounting policies for leases will be found in the 2021 Annual Report. Also refer to Note 3 for the effect of IFRS 16 on the quarter.
The Parent Company has chosen to apply the simplification rules in RFR 2, which means that all leases be reported as operating leases.
No new accounting policies with significant impact on Nilörn have entered into force in 2022.

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 metrics | Definition | Justification |
|---|---|---|
| Average equity | Equity at the beginning of the period, plus equity at the end of the period, divided by two. |
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 attributable to the Group's owners. |
| Average number of employees | Average number of yearly employed | This metric is used to measure the development of the Group's workforce. |
| Revenue growth | Net revenue at the end of the period, minus net revenue at the beginning of the period, divided by net revenue at the beginning of the period. |
This metric is used to measure the development of the Group's revenue over time. |
| Return on equity | Period's result according to the income statement in percent of average equity. |
This metric is used to analyse profitability over time, given the resources attributable to the Parent Company's owners. |
| Return on capital employed | Result before taxes, plus financial expenses, in percent of average capital employed. |
Return on capital employed is a profitability metric used to gauge the result relative to the capital required to run the business. |
| Interest-bearing net cash and cash equivalents/liabilities |
Interest-bearing receivables, cash and cash equivalents, reduced by interest-bearing liabilities. |
The metric shows the total debt financing and is used as a complement to judge the feasibility of paying dividends, to implement strategic investments and to gauge the Group's ability to meet its financial obligations. |
| Operating margin | Operating result in percent of net revenue. | This metric is used to measure operative profitability. |
| Equity ratio | Equity in percent of balance sheet total. | This measure shows the proportion of the company's total assets financed with equity by its shareholders. A high equity ratio is an indication of financial strength. |
| Operating margin | Operating result in percent of net revenue. | This metric is used to measure operative profitability. |
