Quarterly Report
Open in ViewerOpens in native device viewer
The fourth quarter concludes yet another solid year and is confirmation of continued strong growth for OEM. Net sales increased by 14% compared with the same quarter in the previous year. Acquisitions accounted for 5% of this growth and, since the quarter's increase was not affected by currency movements, 9% organic growth was achieved. The underlying growth remains strong, despite some slowing of momentum in parts of our operations towards the end of the year.
Operating profit (EBITA) fell by 2% compared with the fourth quarter of 2016 and the operating margin reached 10.7%. There is also a number of one-off costs, but the main explanation is that the increase in turnover comes primarily from sales to larger customers where the margins are generally lower.
A look at our regions shows that growth in Region Sweden is lower than in the previous year. What we need to remember, however, is that the comparative figures are challenging, as they come from an exceptionally strong quarter in 2016. Furthermore, we have noted that a slightly dampened demand in the Swedish market has affected some of our companies. The change in customer mix and generally narrower margins, which we mentioned before, were clearly felt in Sweden, but we also have a cost increase attributable to further investment in the organisation and in marketing activities. However, an operating margin of 13% is confirmation that we are continuing to drive good efficiency across our operations.
The Region Finland, the Baltic states and China is maintaining its strong growth and became the Group's second largest region during the year. In the fourth quarter, the organic growth was 24% and the profit performance improved by 115%. Growth is particularly strong in Finland, which continues to exceed our expectations.
Our third region, comprising Denmark, Norway, the UK and the countries in Central Eastern Europe, has posted its best ever quarter. We are witnessing increased demand across most of our operations, we have succeeded in reversing negative trends where they have occurred, and sales have further increased in operations where growth has previously been good.
In summarising the year as a whole, it is pleasing to report that we are continuing to deliver strong growth performance. Our cumulative net sales are up 15% and incoming orders are increasing even more. Considering that we operate in a mature industry, that has to be acknowledged as an exceptional increase.
The effort and commitment of our employees are the key reasons for our success. Over the past year, we have welcomed 100 new colleagues to OEM, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and all of OEM's employees for the work you do each day to make OEM a stronger company.

Net sales in the full-year 2017 increased by 46% to SEK 569 million. Net sales grew 24% due to the positive impact of acquisitions and 2% due to the impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements, resulting in 20% organic growth in the region.
The level of incoming orders has also been good, rising 46% to SEK 580 million.
During the year, incoming orders were 2% higher than net sales.
This strong performance is due to OEM's continuing focus on expanding its offering to existing customers in Finland by introducing new products and systems. All operations in Finland have achieved positive performances, and the negative growth trajectory reported in 2016 for the Baltic states was reversed to an upward trend in 2017, even if the growth rate is low. The operations in the Baltic states and China are small and their impact on total growth is marginal.
EBITA rose 80% to SEK 63 million, due primarily to increased net sales.

OEM normally uses an acquisition structure with a base consideration and contingent consideration. Contingent consideration is initially measured at the present value of the probable earn-out amount, which is SEK 13.5 million for the acquisitions this year. The period for contingent consideration is three (3) years at most and the earn-out is capped at SEK 15.6 million. Both the base consideration and the contingent consideration are settled in cash.
Transaction expenses linked to acquisitions that have been made amount to SEK 0.4 million in the period.
Contingent consideration recognised as a liability was remeasured based on the development of previously acquired businesses and was subsequently reduced by SEK -7.4 million (-7.4). This has been recognised in Other Income and had a positive SEK 7.4 million (7.4) effect on the operating profit in 2017. Acquisition-related consideration liability on 31 December 2017 totalled SEK 21.3 million (17.5).
This condensed consolidated interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and in compliance with relevant provisions from the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The interim report for the Parent Company has been prepared in compliance with Chapter 9, Interim Reports, of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The Group and the Parent Company have applied the same accounting policies and basis of preparation as in the latest annual report. No International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) or International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) interpretations adopted in 2017 have had a significant effect on the reported results or financial position of the Group.
There are no separate disclosures of the fair values of financial assets and liabilities stated at cost because the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities are considered to be reasonable approximations of their fair values. This is because the company management believes there have been no material fluctuations in market interest rates or credit spreads that would have a material impact on the fair value of the Group's interest-bearing liabilities. Furthermore, the fair value of trade and other current receivables and payables is assumed to approximate their carrying amount given their short-term nature.
IFRS 9 Financial instruments and IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers, effective for accounting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2018, will not result in any material changes to the financial reporting process of the Group as at 1 January 2018. An impact analysis has been initiated to examine the effects of IFRS 16 Leases, effective for accounting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2019, which may have an impact on the financial results and position. IFRS 16 is not expected to have any significant impacts, but the analysis must be completed before any final effects can be quantified.

In addition to the conventional financial performance measures established by IFRS, OEM uses the term EBITA which is defined below. The reason for this is that the company wishes to reflect the underlying business activities and improve the comparability of financial information across different periods of time.
EBITA Operating profit before amortisation of acquisition-related intangible fixed assets A reconciliation of the calculation of EBITA is presented on page 11.
EBITA margin EBITA divided by net sales
Return on capital employed EBITA plus finance income as a percentage of average capital employed
Capital employed Total assets less non-interest-bearing liabilities and provisions
Return on total capital EBITA plus finance income as a percentage of average total capital
Return on Equity Profit for the year divided by average shareholders' equity
