Group development, per quarter

Adjusted EBIT and EBIT margin

COMMENTS FROM THE CEO

The market is developing in a positive direction

Although we see signs of increased market activity and a return to a more normalized level of requests for quotations, the second quarter was also, as expected, characterized by a weaker general market climate, not least in the construction sector. Organic growth amounted to 3 percent with an adjusted EBIT margin of 4.4 percent. Our efficiency work and increased focus on productivity improvements are yielding ongoing results, and we are generally satisfied with the quarter in the current market climate. So far this year, Nordisk Bergteknik has taken on new projects worth over one billion SEK, and we are seeing increased demand for larger projects, not least regarding defense and security-related assignments. Something that benefits us relatively speaking, as we, as a leading player, have significant experience and the necessary authorizations to carry out this type of work.

Takeover of operations

During the quarter, we have taken over several wellfunctioning operations to complement our organic expansion, which brings the group annual net sales of around SEK 120 million. The underlying factor is the long-standing challenging market climate, which means that smaller players are choosing to become part of us instead of competing. This gives Nordisk Bergteknik access to a customer and contract base while we invest in suitable machinery and hire the personnel resources that the assignments require.

Rock Sweden

The stable development continues in Rock Sweden. The segment grew organically by 6 percent during the quarter, and the base continues to consist of the stable mining operations in Sweden in particular, but also in Finland. We are now seeing increased demand for larger infrastructure projects, which also include a service component in the form of operation and maintenance. Furthermore, we assess that defense and securityrelated assignments will constitute an increasingly large part of the operations going forward, which will also contribute positively to our foundation business. The EBIT margin amounted to 6.4 percent, which is clearly satisfactory in the current market, but lower than in the strong comparison quarter and its project mix with a high proportion of larger projects.

Rock Norway

Within Rock Norway, our restructuring of the operations is now completed and has delivered according to plan. Going forward, we will focus on rock reinforcement and concrete repairs that tie up limited capital and deliver good margins in a normal market. However, demand in the Norwegian market remains suppressed. The segment's organic growth was 9 percent during the quarter, with a reduced EBIT margin of 1.7 percent. Although volumes have increased, several projects were taken at a lower price level, which negatively affected our margin during the quarter. We expect a stable autumn, the normalization of prices and that from 2026 we will benefit from investments in line with the country's national transport plan. The cost-saving measures we have implemented have delivered according to plan, although they are not yet fully reflected in the financial performance.

Foundation Sweden

Within Foundation Sweden, net sales decreased by 9 percent during the quarter. Despite this, we were able to improve profitability and report an EBIT margin of 2.2 percent, compared to a negative margin last year. We are now seeing continuous positive effects from the now more or less completed work of gathering the entire offering within the foundation business into one unit through the creation of Nordisk Grundteknik. However,

"

Our efficiency work and increased focus on productivity improvements are yielding ongoing results, and we are generally satisfied with the quarter in the current market climate. "

the general demand situation in the foundation market is still weak. We are waiting for volumes to increase, and for us the right project to be obtained so that profitability can increase.

Our financial status

Despite the lower result compared to the previous year, cash flow from operating activities increased by MSEK 64 to MSEK 99, as we gradually freed working capital after earlier start-ups within Rock Sweden. Net debt/adjusted EBITDA LTM was 3.5 (3.6) due to continued low profit generation in the current market climate. Our ambition is to gradually reduce net debt through increased profit generation, increase financial freedom of action, and deliver in line with our long-term financial target as the market climate normalizes.

Extended and increased financing agreement

After the end of the period, we entered into agreements, on very satisfactory terms, with Swedbank and Nordea regarding the refinancing of a bank loan of SEK 400 million. The loan matures in the third quarter of 2028 with the possibility of a further extension. In addition to the bank loan, we have also signed an agreement to extend the current credit facility of SEK 650 million with the same maturity. Nordisk Bergteknik has also entered into an agreement with the mentioned banks that provides

the possibility of an additional credit facility of SEK 200 million intended for future investments and potential acquisitions.

Future prospects

As a leading strategic partner in the development of national and local infrastructure, Nordisk Bergteknik has a fundamentally competitive offer and a very strong position in a significant market with large pent-up demand. So far this year, Nordisk Bergteknik has taken on new projects worth over SEK one billion. Even if the market climate in the construction sector is still weak, underlying demand, supported by implemented interest rate cuts are expected to increase activity going forward. With regard to infrastructure investments, we are seeing a gradual increase in activity with the start-up of even larger projects that benefit both our segments within rock handling and foundation solutions. As mentioned, this applies in particular to defense- and security-related investments, where several of our areas of expertise are in demand. We remain confident as we look ahead to the coming quarters.

Group performance during the second quarter

Net sales

The group's net sales for the second quarter amounted to SEK 873.9 (858.1) million, an increase of 2% compared to the previous year. Organic growth amounted to 3%.

In the Rock Sweden segment, demand has been high during the quarter. In the Rock Norway segment, market activity has continued to be cautious, but the segment had positive organic growth during the quarter. In the Foundation Sweden segment, volumes were lower than in previous quarters, resulting in negative organic growth.

EBIT

Adjusted EBIT for the group amounted to SEK 38.0 (48.1) million for the quarter. The adjusted EBIT margin amounted to 4.4 (5.6) %. The lower EBIT margin is a result of a lower margin in the Rock Sweden and Rock

Norway segments.

The group's EBIT amounted to SEK 36.5 (46.8) million. The EBIT margin amounted to 4.2 (5.5) % and includes items affecting comparability amounting to SEK -1.5 (-1.3) million.

Net financial items

The financial net for the quarter amounted to SEK -14.5 (-17.4) million. The financial net excluding results from short-term investments, currency effects and revaluation of contingent considerations was better than in the previous year due to a lower interest rate level and amounted to SEK -21.7 (-28.1) million.

Tax and profit for the period

The tax cost for the quarter amounted to SEK -3.1 (-2.2) million. The result for the quarter amounted to SEK 18.9 (27.2) million, corresponding to an earnings per share of SEK 0.33 (0.47) before and after dilution.

Net financial items

Net financial items for the period amounted to SEK -33.5 (-51.7) million.

The financial net excluding results from short-term investments, currency effects and revaluation of contingent considerations amounted to SEK -42.5 (-54.6) million.

Tax and profit for the period

The tax cost for the period amounted to SEK -5.7 (-5.3) million. The effective tax rate amounted to 27 (30) % and was primarily negatively affected by the interest deduction limitation rules in Sweden.

The segment's development

Net sales

The external net sales during the second quarter decreased by 9% and amounted to SEK 175.9 (193.8) million. The organic growth amounted to -9%. The challenging market with reduced housing construction and fewer project starts in local infrastructure continues, but the segment has experienced positive organic growth in recent quarters as a result of a recovery in the market. During the quarter, the segment had fewer large projects, which resulted in lower net sales.

The external net sales during the period January-June increased by 11% and amounted to SEK 417.0 (375.6) million. The organic growth amounted to 11%.

EBIT

EBIT for the second quarter amounted to SEK 3.7 (-0.3) million. Despite the lower sales, the segment has managed to improve the EBIT margin, which amounted to 2.2 (-0.1) % during the quarter. However, the EBIT margin continues to be negatively affected by the weak market.

EBIT for the period January-June amounted to SEK -0.2 (-2.8) million. The EBIT margin amounted to -0.1% (-0.7) %.

Operational focus

Nordisk Bergteknik has taken further steps in the work to strengthen the position, competitiveness and profitability within the core business through the creation of Nordisk Grundteknik. The goal is to collect the entire offer in one unit and thereby increase efficiency, realize synergies and create a common price and allocation strategy. Additionally, ongoing evaluations and activities are being conducted to allocate the right resources to each project to achieve the best possible efficiency and results.

Other financial information

Financial position

At the end of the period, the group's assets amounted to SEK 3,444.6 (3,545.1) million. The group's equity amounted to SEK 1,227.1 (1,233.9) million.

The group's net debt decreased to SEK 1,502.2 (1,1600.2) million and consisted of loans to credit institutions, machine loans, acquisition loans, lease liabilities for right-of-use assets, cash, and short-term investments. The group's debt ratio, measured as net debt/adjusted EBITDA, amounted to 3.5x (3.6x). The lower result during the last twelve months has resulted in a higher debt ratio than the group's long-term financial goal of 2.5x.

The group's financing agreement contains two covenants; the group's debt ratio, calculated as the ratio between net debt and adjusted EBITDA rolling 12 months pro forma, and equity to asset ratio, calculated as the ratio between total equity and total assets.

Investments and cash flow

The cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 99.3 (35.0) million during the second quarter and the adjusted cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 100.9 (36.3) million (adjusted for items affecting comparability). The increase compared to the previous year is mainly due to a decrease in capital tied up during the quarter, especially in accounts receivable and ongoing projects.

The cash flow from investment activities amounted to SEK -56.8 (-21.8) million and mainly consisted of investments in tangible fixed assets.

The cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK -22.0 (-64.7) million. The change compared to the previous year is primarily due to lower amortization during the quarter compared to the previous year.

The cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 70.0 (85.9) million during the period January-June, and adjusted cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 74.0 (88.6) million (adjusted for cash flow-affecting items). The decrease compared to the previous year is due to the lower profit and higher capital tied up.

The cash flow from investment activities amounted to SEK -94.8 (-85.0) million and mainly consisted of investments in tangible fixed assets. The change compared to the previous year is due to a slightly higher investment rate during the period and fewer divestments compared to the comparison period. Net investments in tangible fixed assets amounted to SEK -95.0 (-85.2) million.

Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK -60.0 (-87.2) million. The change is mainly because the Group has taken out more machine loans during the period compared to the comparative period and has

utilized the overdraft facility to a greater extent. During the period a seller's promissory note of approximately SEK 32 million was settled, which has had a negative effect on the group's cash flow.

As of June 30, the group's cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 33.2 (28.4) million and utilized overdraft facilities amounted to SEK 22.7 (21.1) million. The group has additional unused liquidity of total SEK 233 million.

Personnel and organization

As of the end of the quarter, the group had 1,168 (1,216) employees, as shown below:

Shares and share capital

As of June 30, 2025, the number of shares and votes amounted to 57,237,867 with a share capital of SEK 572,379 corresponding to a quotient value of SEK 0.01.

Parent company

Nordisk Bergteknik AB's operations are covered by head office functions such as group-wide management and finance functions. Net sales consist of management fees that are invoiced to the subsidiaries.

Net sales for the quarter amounted to SEK 10.3 (9.2) million. Profit/loss before appropriations and tax amounted to SEK -4.4 (-8.3) million. The financial net of the parent company amounted to SEK -2.3 (-4.3) million.

Net sales for the period January-June amounted to SEK 19.8 (18.3) million and profit/loss before appropriations and tax amounted to SEK -14.4 (-27.9) million. The higher result is mainly due to a lower interest rate level during the period, which resulted in lower interest expenses, as well as results from short-term investments.

The parent company's total assets amounted to SEK 2,188.5 (2,214.1) million. As of June 30, equity amounted to SEK 998.2 (1,000.6) million.

Significant events after the reported period

In July, Nordisk Bergteknik extended the existing financing agreement with Swedbank and Nordea regarding refinancing of a bank loan amounting to SEK 400 million. The loan matures in the third quarter of 2028, with the possibility of further extension. In addition to the bank loan, the company has signed an agreement to extend its current credit facility of SEK 650 million with the same maturity. Nordisk Bergteknik has also reached an agreement with the mentioned banks that provides an opportunity for an additional credit facility of SEK 200 million, intended for future investments and potential acquisitions. The financing agreement also includes a potential sustainability component.

Seasonal effects

There is a seasonal effect affecting the group's operations within the Rock Norway segment and refers to the rock reinforcement business in Norway, whose sales and earnings are lower in the fourth quarter and second quarter due to the weather conditions during winter. Other segments have no clear seasonal effects, but sales and earnings are rather largely dependent on project mix but also weather conditions. In order to counter revenue reduction as a result of seasonal effects, Nordisk Bergteknik works to ensure that there are projects that run over the winter months and reallocates resources within the group. Due to its size, the group has a greater opportunity to counter seasonal effects.

Significant risks and uncertainty factors

Nordisk Bergteknik's operations are affected by several risks whose effects on earnings and financial position can be controlled to varying degrees. The construction industry is largely affected by macroeconomic factors, for example general, global or national economic trends, raw material prices, growth, employment development, amount of infrastructure projects, regional economic development, population growth, inflation and changing interest rates. There is a risk that one or more of these factors can develop negatively for the company.

More detailed information about the group's risks can be found in the annual and sustainability report for 2024.

Note 7 Financial instruments

Interest-bearing assets and liabilities' respective fair values may differ from their carrying amounts, partly as a result of changes in market interest rates. The fair values of these assets have been determined by discounting future payment flows at the current interest rate for equivalent instruments. For financial instruments such as accounts receivable, accounts payable and other non-interest-bearing financial assets and liabilities, which are reported at accrued acquisition value subtracting any write-downs, the fair value is deemed to correspond to the carrying amount. The following table shows the Group's financial instruments by category and valuation level. There have been no transfers between the valuation levels during the year. Short-term investments that are valued at fair value in the income statement are based on available market value on the balance sheet date.

Definitions of alternative performance measures

Guidelines regarding alternative performance measures for companies with securities listed on a regulated market within the EU have been issued by ESMA (The European Securities and Markets Authority). The interim report refers to a number of undefined measures in accordance with IFRS that are used to help both investors and management to analyse the company's operations. Because not all companies calculate financial measures in the same way, these are not always comparable with measures used by other companies. These financial measures should therefore not be regarded as compensation for measures defined in accordance with IFRS. Below we describe the various measures not defined in accordance with IFRS that have been used as a complement to the financial information reported in accordance with IFRS and how these measures are used. For reconciliation of alternative key ratios, see the website https://nordiskbergteknik.se/en/investors/reports-and-presentations/

Key ratios Definition Justification for use of measures
Organic growth, % Change in net sales compared with the same period
last year, adjusted for currency translation effects and
acquisitions. Acquisitions are adjusted for by excluding
net sales for acquisitions during the period and inclu
ding net sales for the entire period for the acquisitions
that have been made in the previous year and that have
not been consolidated during the entire period last year.
Currency effects are calculated using the exchange
rates of the previous period for the current period
Organic growth facilitates a com
parison of net sales over time,
excluding the impact of currency
translation effects and acquisi
tions
EBITDA Operating profit (EBIT) excluding depreciation and
amortisation
The measure is used to measure
operating profitability excluding
depreciation and amortisation
EBITDA margin, % EBITDA divided by net sales for the period This measure is used to measure
operating profitability in relation
to net sales, excluding deprecia
tion and amortisation
Adjusted EBITDA EBITDA adjusted for items affecting comparability Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of
operating profit before deprecia
tion and amortisation and is used
to evaluate operating activities.
The purpose is to show EBITDA
excluding items that affect com
parability with other periods
Adjusted EBITDA
margin, %
Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales for the period This measure is used to measure
operating profitability in relation
to net sales, excluding deprecia
tion and amortisation and items
that affect comparability with
other periods
Operating profit (EBIT) Profit or loss for the period excluding tax, financial
costs and financial income
This measure is used to measure
operating profitability, including
depreciation and amortisation,
and excluding tax, financial ex
penses and financial income
EBIT margin, % Operating profit (EBIT) divided by the period's net sales The measure is used to measure
operating profitability in relation
to net sales

Definitions of alternative performance measures (cont.)

Key ratios Definition Justification for use of measures
Adjusted EBIT Operating profit for the period (EBIT) adjusted for items
affecting comparability.
Adjusted EBIT is a measure
of operating profit including
depreciation and amortisation
and is used to evaluate operating
activities. The purpose is to show
operating profit (EBIT) excluding
items that affect comparability
with other periods
Adjusted EBIT margin,
%
Adjusted EBIT divided by net sales for the period This measure is used to measure
operating profitability in relation
to net sales, excluding items that
affect comparability with other
periods
Items affecting com
parability
Items affecting comparability are costs and incomes
that are reported separately due to their nature and
amount and that are not considered normal in the ope
rating business. Examples of items affecting compara
bility are acquisition-related costs, restructuring costs
and revaluation of contingent consideration
Items affecting comparability are
used by management to explain
variations in historical profita
bility Separate reporting and
specification of items affecting
comparability enables the users
of the financial information to un
derstand and evaluate the adjust
ments made by management
when adjusted EBIT, adjusted
EBIT margin, %, adjusted EBITDA
and adjusted EBITDA margin, %
are presented
Adjusted cash flow
from operating
activities
Cash flow from operating activities adjusted for cash
flow impacting items affecting comparability
This measure is used to measure
operating profitability cash flow
from operating activities exclu
ding items that affect comparabi
lity with other periods
Equity/asset ratio, % Adjusted equity divided by total assets. Adjusted equity
is calculated as total equity attributable to the pa
rent company's shareholders plus loans from owners.
Loans to owners that have arisen in connection with the
acquisition of a company (where the previous owner of
the acquired company becomes an owner of Nordisk
Bergteknik), so-called seller´s promissory note, are not
included in adjusted equity
The measure shows the propor
tion of total assets financed by
shareholders with equity. The
measure has been included so
that investors can create an ima
ge of the Group's capital structure
Net debt Short-term and long-term interest-bearing liabilities
reduced by cash and cash equivalents', short-term
investments and other long-term liabilities to the extent
pertaining to owner loans. Loans to owners that have
arisen in connection with the acquisition of a company
(where the previous owner of the acquired company
becomes an owner of Nordisk Bergteknik), so-called
seller´s promissory note, are included in net debt.
Short-term and long-term interest-bearing liabilities
refer to liabilities to credit institutions, lease liabilities,
overdraft facilities and other long-term liabilities (the
part relating to seller´s promissory note, see previous
comment)
The measure shows the Group's
net financial liabilities and is used
to show the total indebtedness in
