Comments from the CEO
Consolidated sales in the fourth quarter increased by 2%, adjusted for currency, in a persistently challenging environment. At the same time, the EBITA margin strengthened by 0.3 percentage points to 10.4% in relation to the comparative quarter. We are working continuously to broaden our offering and strengthen the relationship with both existing and potential customers. Strategic price adjustments, implemented cost adjustments and focused efforts throughout the entire supply chain have yielded the desired effect, and will have an increasing impact with heightened volumes.
In the Medical Solutions business area, sales increased by 5% adjusted for currency in the fourth quarter, now representing 58% of the Group's revenues. At the same time, EBITA margin increased by 0.4 percentage points compared with the same quarter last year and stood at 11.6%. Investments in future growth are proceeding according to plan, through expanding capacity in Hungary and Poland as well as by establishing operations in Malaysia. In terms of our Hungarian operations, and our previously communicated large customer project, validation deliveries continued in the fourth quarter. It is estimated that these deliveries will be at around the same levels until the end of the second quarter of the year, and then subsequently increase.

Christer Wahlquist, President and CEO, Nolato AB
Engineered Solutions sales decreased by 1%, adjusted for currency. Consumer electronics remained on a positive trend, particularly in the Asian operations, while Hygiene saw volumes decline due to inventory adjustments at the end of the year. The Other market area also continued to decline during the quarter. Operations in Materials grew by a full 10% adjusted for currency. Higher volumes for network equipment in Telecom and new products and technology areas, primarily Data Centers, explain the positive performance. EBITA margin for Engineered Solutions rose by a full 0.7 percentage points to 9.9%. Implemented cost adjustments and advanced market positions have made a positive contribution, while lower volumes and sharply increased precious metal prices have, temporarily, had the opposite effect.
For the full year 2025, the Group reported an 11% improvement in earnings, achieving an operating profit (EBITA) of SEK 1,065 million, despite significant currency headwinds. This improvement was driven by an increase in the EBITA margin by 1.4 percentage points, reaching 11.3%.
We have a sustained strong financial position with net liabilities in relation to operating profit (EBITDA) that amounted to 0.5x. This favorable financial position supports our intensified M&A agenda. We have already established a position with production on three continents. Going forward, focus will shift to complementing our existing business with expertise in new materials and technologies.
Nolato will continue along its strategic journey with increased profitable growth – both organic and acquired – based on our global capabilities that enable directing business and production to the regions that best meet customers' needs and further reinforce our position.

Sales
Consolidated sales totaled SEK 2,272 million (2,382) – an increase of 2% adjusted for currency.
Medical Solutions sales amounted to SEK 1,314 million (1,359); adjusted for currency, sales increased by 5%. The Drug Delivery market area continued to exhibit growth in the quarter, with higher volumes in deliveries of products such as autoinjectors and pen injectors. In vitro diagnostic (IVD) also performed positively compared with the beginning of 2025. The market areas Surgery, Pharmaceutical Packaging and Cardiology had stable volumes during the quarter, while Continence Care contracted, following what Nolato assesses to be inventory adjustments ahead of year-end.
Engineered Solutions sales totaled SEK 964 million (1,033) – a 1% decrease, adjusted for currency. Consumer Electronics remained on a positive trend, especially the Asian operations. The automotive industry also increased slightly in the quarter. After a positive performance earlier in the year for Hygiene, volumes decreased in the fourth quarter, which was due to inventory adjustments before year-end. The Other market area continued to decline in this quarter also, due to factors such as lower volumes in white goods.
Operations within Materials generated higher volumes compared with last year. Adjusted for currency, sales rose by 10% through higher volumes for network equipment in Telecom and other areas, while the Automotive segment decreased slightly.
Increased growth for Medical Solutions while Engineered Solutions fell slightly

The Surgery segment displayed stable volumes after a protracted period of inventory adjustments, albeit at a lower level than in 2024. The Other market area showed good growth in the first half of the year, partly through volumes added from new eye care products, while the second half of the year had slightly lower volumes.
The business area previously decided, and communicated, its establishment of operations in Malaysia with cleanroom production nearby Nolato's existing facility. Production is scheduled to commence in the second half of 2026. Planning and preparation for this production are proceeding according to plan.

Volumes in Materials increased compared with 2024, with a 6% rise in sales, adjusted for currency. The first and fourth quarters in particular increased sharply in new products and technology areas – chiefly data centers – which resulted in increased market share and strong growth. Products for network equipment in Telecom also exhibited good growth. Growth was lower in the second and third quarters, due mainly to the Automotive segment.
Operating profit (EBITA) for Engineered Solutions increased to SEK 439 million (409).
EBITA margin for Engineered Solutions rose by 1.1 percentage points to 10.7% (9.6). A favorable product mix and cost adjustments have had a positive impact on the margin.

Cash flow after investments fell during the period to SEK 274 million (743, excluding acquisitions). Net investments affecting cash flow increased to SEK 788 million (636).

Definitions - IFRS measures
Earnings per share
Earnings for the period that are attributable to the parent company's owners divided by the average number of outstanding shares.
Operating profit (EBIT)
Earnings before financial income and expense and taxes.
Definitions - Alternative performance measures
Nolato presents certain financial measures in this report that are not defined according to IFRS. Nolato considers that these measures provide valuable supplementary information for investors and company management, as they enable an assessment of trends and the company's performance. Since not all companies calculate financial measures in the same way, these are not always comparable to measures used by other companies. These financial measures should not therefore be regarded as substitutes for measures defined according to IFRS.
Average number of shares
The average basic number of shares comprises the parent company's weighted average number of outstanding shares during the period. After dilution, a weighted average of the shares that may be issued under the ongoing share warrant programme is added, if they are in-the-money, but only insofar as the average listed share price for the period exceeds the subscription price of the warrants.
Cash flow after investments, excl. acquisitions and disposals per share
Cash flow after investing activities excl. acquisitions and disposals, divided by the average number of shares.
Cash flow from operating activities per share Cash flow from operating activities, divided by the average number of shares.
EBITA margin
Operating profit (EBITA) as a percentage of net sales.
Equity/assets ratio
Shareholders' equity as a percentage of total capital in the balance sheet.
Financial net debt in relation to adjusted operating profit (EBITDA)
Interest-bearing short- and long-term liabilities, excl. net provisions for pensions and leasing, with a deduction for cash and cash equivalents, divided by R12M EBITDA adjusted for any non-recurring items.
Net financial assets/liabilities
Interest-bearing liabilities from credit institutions less interest-bearing assets.
Operating profit (EBITA)
Earnings before financial income and expense, taxes and amortization of intangible assets arising from acquisitions.
Operating profit (EBITDA)
Earnings before financial income and expense, taxes and depreciation/amortization.
Profit margin

Forward-looking information
Some of the items reported relate to future events and actual outcomes may differ materially. In addition to those factors explicitly commented on, other factors may also materially affect the actual outcome, such as economic conditions, exchange rates and interest rate levels, political risks, competition and pricing, product development, commercialisation and technical difficulties, supply problems and customer credit losses.
