Pricer is a global leader in solutions for automation and communication in physical stores with a focus on driving digitalization and changing the retail trade. With its innovative cloud-based platform Pricer Plaza, the company helps retailers streamline their operations, improve the buying experience, and increase sales. Pricer's solutions are based on electronic shelf labels and digital signage, which enable retailers to communicate with their customers, employees and suppliers. Pricer was founded in Sweden in 1991 and is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, Mid Cap.
Labels installed, total 350+ million

Pricer's order intake and net sales for the first quarter of 2025 were weaker than expected. Increased uncertainty in several of Pricer's core markets, resulting from the current macroeconomic situation, has led to a cautious approach to investments in the retail and grocery sectors. It appears that this macroeconomic uncertainty will also hamper investment in store digitalization in the second quarter, but it could also affect the remainder of 2025. Our pipeline of dialogs with potential new customers is gradually increasing, indicating continued strong growth potential for Pricer. For the larger retail chains, it is not a matter of if but rather when smart store digitalization will be introduced to optimize their operations and reduce operating costs.
Net sales for the first quarter amounted to SEK 528.3 M (670.3), which was an effect of increased caution among customers. This was particularly evident in the French market, while other markets such as Benelux and Canada continued to show growth. The year-earlier quarter was also exceptionally strong with significant deliveries to French grocery chains. Sales and invoicing in the Nordic and Baltic markets were also cautious in the first quarter as existing customers postponed planned purchases until the second half of the year, when they will be able to make purchases directly from Pricer instead of through a distributor. Recurring revenue from
Pricer Plaza continued to increase according to plan and now amounts to SEK 40.3 M (22.7) for the rolling 12-month period, up 78 percent.
Despite a strong gross margin for the quarter of 23.3 percent (17.1), operating profit declined to SEK 12.8 M (21.4) as a result of lower net sales.
Pricer's transformation process has had a significantly positive effect on profitability over the past year. It has given us better protection against periods of low demand, but above all has presented many possibilities to capitalize on the long-term growth opportunities available for digital store solutions. We have worked on further optimizing our strategy over the past six months. In brief, the strategy involves well-defined customer and market segmentation and expanding and future-proofing our product portfolio. An example of this was the launch of Pricer Avenue at the start of January 2025. This launch generated very high interest among customers and we are planning pilot projects together with customers for the latter part of 2025. The strategy also includes prioritizing our geographical markets and how to address them. In line with this, we started streamlining our French operations in the first quarter, while at the same time increasing our resources in other markets where we see greater potential for growth and

profitability. Pricer's activities in the Nordic and Baltic countries, with an expanded team for direct sales and delivery, are progressing well and we see many opportunities for positive effects as early as this year.
In early April, Pricer attended the Retail Technology Show in London and over two days virtually all major UK retailers were given a deep dive into Pricer Avenue, Pricer Plaza and our strategic partnership with Focal Systems. All of these meetings confirmed our view of a market characterized by personnel shortages and sharply rising salary costs, all of which make store digitalization essential. For this reason, it is probable that the first UK grocery retailer will decide on major investments in digitalization toward the end of 2025 or in 2026.
Despite slightly lower customer activity and more uncertain macroeconomic factors in the first quarter, I am convinced that, after an accelerated internal change process during 2024, Pricer is now heading in exactly the right direction.
We are now entering the next phase of the strategy, focused on increased commercialization, a new product line, clearer positioning and a renewed brand platform. At the same time, we are continuously optimizing and enhancing the efficiency of our operations based on a cost-conscious approach. There remains a widespread long-term need for store digitalization in the retail sector. There can be no doubt about this. It is still too early to draw conclusions on how the recent increase in tariffs and trade barriers will impact global retail. In the past, higher inflation has increased storeowners' need and willingness to invest in digital, flexible, rapid and cost-effective management of goods and prices.

"In the past, higher inflation has increased storeowners' need and willingness to invest in digital, flexible, rapid and cost-effective management of goods and prices."
The global market for store digitalization and systems for electronic shelf labels is currently estimated to generate sales of about USD 3 billion and is expected to show long-term annual growth of about 15 percent by 2030. Growth rates often vary from year to year between different markets as a result of trends, competition, the economic climate and macro trends. For the full year 2024, the global market reported low growth, probably below 5 percent, but with accelerating growth in the North American market offsetting the European market, which shrank slightly during the year. Pricer believes
that over the past year the company likely captured gained market share in the European market, where it already holds a leading position.
Pricer's assessment is that the European market for store digitalization continued to decline in the first quarter due to financial restraint as a result of a volatile external environment. Pricer believes that the rate of global market growth in 2025 is highly uncertain due to the macroeconomic turmoil of recent months. The outlook for growth in the UK, Benelux, the Nordics and the Baltic countries is deemed to be favorable,
while the markets in France and Italy are more uncertain. In the North American market, Canada appears to be growing, while the US market is characterized by uncertainty due to the recent geopolitical situation.
During the quarter, Pricer carried out a number of sales activities in markets where the conditions are considered to be favorable, particularly in the Nordics, where the company is now establishing its own sales organization.
Long-term market growth is driven by several interlinked factors, all of which contribute to its wide appeal:

Retailers are facing rising labor costs and demands for real-time capabilities. Electronic labeling systems enable dynamic price updates, reduce manual errors, and free up staff for other tasks, solving several operational challenges.

Innovations in smart cloudbased software platforms with increased functionality, improved e-paper displays and energy-efficient solutions have significantly reduced costs. In addition, artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) have opened up new opportunities for data analytics and smart retail.

The seamless synchronization of prices in physical stores and online has become increasingly important as stores strive for consistency across all channels. Pricer's technology supports these efforts by ensuring accurate product information and realtime price updates, while also enabling management and integration of IoT devices.

Systems for digital in-store communication enable active improvements to the in-store customer experience, such as broad or specific marketing campaigns and personalized offers.

Retailers are facing increasing demands for sustainability. Electronic labels reduce paper waste and energy consumption compared to traditional price labels, making them an attractive option for businesses focused on sustainability.
The order intake declined to SEK 457.2 M (972) for the first quarter, down 52.9 percent. Adjusted for exchange rate fluctuations, the order intake fell 53.0 percent. Order intake is spread across a large number of customers in several geographic markets, with Canada, France, Finland and Italy as the largest individual countries.
Order backlog on March 31, 2025 amounted to SEK 597.6 M (661.0).

Net sales for the quarter amounted to SEK 528.3 M (670.3). The decrease was mainly due to increased uncertainty in several of Pricer's core markets, resulting from the current macroeconomic situation. Order intake and net sales often fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Adjusted for exchange rate fluctuations, net sales fell 25.7 percent. Net sales in Q1 2025 were spread across a large number of customers.
Of net sales, SEK 25.6 M (21.8) was recurring revenue, an increase of 17.4 percent.
Despite lower net sales, gross profit amounted to SEK 122.9 M (128.2), down 4.2 percent, and the gross margin was 23.3 percent (19.1). The company's work to reduce production costs and harmonize the product portfolio had a clear effect on the gross margin.
The majority of the company's costs for goods sold are in USD, and net sales are primarily in USD and EUR.
Operating expenses amounted to SEK -102.5 M (-95.2) for the quarter, up 7.7 percent compared with the same quarter last year. Operating expenses are primarily in SEK, but they are also in EUR and USD.



Other income and expenses amounted to SEK -7.6 M (-11.6) and pertained to currency effects attributable to the decline of the USD against the SEK and EUR. The first quarter currency effect was relatively high due to lower trade payables, while Pricer had previously had high trade receivables in USD. Since Pricer has its production costs in USD and sells primarily in EUR and USD, a relatively weaker USD will positively impact the gross margin in the long term.
Operating profit amounted to SEK 12.8 M (21.4), which corresponded to an operating margin of 2.4 percent (3.2).
Financial items consisting of interest income of SEK 2.0 M, interest expenses of SEK -7.2 M and exchange rate fluctuations of SEK -8.8 M amounted to a net financial expense of SEK -14.0 M (-5.2) for the quarter.
Tax for the quarter amounted to SEK -4.6 M (-1.1). Profit after tax for the quarter amounted to SEK -5.9 M (15.1).
Translation differences in other comprehensive income of SEK -34.6 M (21.1) consisted of currency revaluation of net assets in foreign operations.

The change in working capital for the quarter had a positive impact of SEK 122.7 M (-93.7) on cash flow from operating activities. The largest effects on cash flow during the quarter were the decrease of SEK 59.0 M in trade receivables and the decrease of SEK 76.4 M in inventories.

Pricer's earnings and financial position are affected by various risk factors that must be considered when assessing the Group and the Parent Company and their future potential. These risks apply primarily to the development of the market for not only digital shelf edge labels and systems and large currency fluctuations but also to political factors affecting trade such as import duties. In view of the client structure and the scope of the agreement, a delay in the installations or large fluctuations in exchange rates can have a significant effect in any given quarter. More information regarding risks is available in the 2024 Annual Report; see page 46 and Note 20.
Pricer is carefully monitoring the uncertainty resulting from the threat of the introduction of tariffs in the US and the war in Ukraine. Pricer can quickly establish new production facilities in other countries if necessary.
No forecast is provided for 2025.
• After the end of the quarter, Pricer will start directly managing sales and customer partnerships in the Nordic and Baltic countries, instead of through resellers.

The interim report for the Parent Company was prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act, Chapter 9 and RFR 2, Accounting for Legal Entities, which has been issued by the Swedish Corporate Reporting Board.

The company has allocated discounts proportionally for all performance obligations in the agreement except for when there is observable proof that the entire discount refers to one or several, but not all, performance obligations.
For financial instruments measured at amortized cost – trade receivables, other current receivables and cash and cash equivalents, liabilities to credit institutions, trade payables, lease liabilities, and other current interest-free liabilities – the fair value is assessed to correspond to the carrying amount. The fair values of other non-current and current liabilities are not assessed to deviate substantially from their carrying amounts. Liabilities to credit institutions relate to a bond of SEK 300 M that was issued in December 2024 via Nordea. The bond has a three-year term with a variable interest rate (equivalent to STIBOR 3m +4.00%). The covenant linked to the bond is reported every quarter and relates to the company's interest coverage ratio.

At the Annual General Meeting on May 7, 2024, a decision was made on the introduction of a long-term incentive program in the form of an option program covering certain senior executives and key personnel. The program entails that employees within the Pricer Group are offered to acquire warrants at market value calculated according to the Black-Scholes valuation model. Each warrant entitles the warrant holder to subscribe to one new B share in the company at a subscription price corresponding to 130 percent of the volume-weighted average price of the company's Class B share on Nasdaq Stockholm.

The Pricer Group presents some metrics that are not defined in accordance with IFRS (alternative performance measures). These metrics are used by management to assess the financial and operational development of the Group. Management believes that these alternative performance measures provide useful information about the Group's financial and operational development. However, these metrics are not necessarily comparable to similar metrics presented by other companies. The alternative performance measures thus have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered alone or as a substitute for the financial metrics presented in accordance with IFRS.
