CEO comments

Net sales in the second quarter totalled SEK 178.1 million (179.8), and operating profit amounted to SEK 18.1 million (17.1). This corresponds to an operating margin of 10.2 percent (9.5).

"We delivered a solid second quarter with strong sales and improved margins. We should also remember that we are comparing ourselves with a strong second quarter last year. As anticipated, sales in the Contracting segment declined during the quarter due to the absence of major projects, although this was offset by strong sales growth in both the Transport and Technology segments."

Growth journey continues according to plan With the goal of reaching SEK 1,000 million in sales and an operating margin of 13 percent by the full year 2027, we continue to develop our organisation and ways of working to support this ambition. We hold a strong market position across all our business areas. The significant maintenance needs of the railway mean that a high volume of maintenance work is planned over the coming years. Funding has been allocated in the infrastructure plan, and the main challenge is to accomplish as much as possible within tight timeframes - with a strong focus on safety. What we at Railcare refer to as "pit stops."

In the Technology segment, the near-term focus is on completing our in-house developed MPV machines, while also delivering external assignments at our workshops in Skelleftehamn and Långsele. Over the longer term, we aim to broaden our offering - whether through new construction, life extension, or ongoing maintenance. Sales efforts have intensified to increase the share of external assignments in Skelleftehamn. Patrik Söderholm, formerly responsible for the Långsele workshop, has been appointed Head of the Technology Business Area and now forms part of Group Manage"We hold a strong market position across all our business areas and continue working to ensure that our targets can be achieved."

ment. Creating synergies between our workshops and ensuring that our strong reputation among external customers benefits the entire segment are important priorities.

Transport operations continue to grow. During the second quarter, clearance locomotives were deployed in Gävle and Ånge. Several major track replacement projects are currently underway, contributing to a high volume of contracting transports. Our high delivery reliability stands out in the industry, giving us strong confidence in securing new transport assignments in the years ahead will be essential oo meet our targets.

UK operations

Operations in the UK have experienced low volumes since the outbreak of the pandemic and the UK's withdrawal from the EU. As in Sweden, we have a framework agreement with Network Rail. While the agreement does not include volume guarantees, it sets compensation per shift. The current agreement expired on 31 July 2025, and we are now in ongoing discussions with Network Rail regarding a new framework agreement. We are also exploring alternative arrangements to secure a baseline volume of work in the UK. The outcome of these discussions will be critical to the future of our UK operations.

"Railcare has a strong reputation in the industry and is associated with innovation and problem-solving."

Ongoing challenges in the railway sector create opportunities for Railcare

This summer once again brought major challenges for the railway. Several major disruptions have affected both passenger traffic and freight operations. Frustration is growing, and it is necessary to take strong measures to make the railways robust and reliable in the long term. Adding to the pressure are the effects of climate change, including increasingly rapid weather shifts and heavy rainfall in some regions. These factors must be considered in both new infrastructure projects and the maintenance of existing systems. While there is general agreement on the nature of the problems, differing views remain on the appropriate solutions. However, there is broad consensus on one key point: the need for effective railway maintenance, where machines, methods, and manpower work seamlessly together.

Railcare is well regarded in the industry and known for its innovation and problem-solving capabilities. We are committed to doing our part in building a more robust and reliable railway.

Financial summary - Group

NET SALES

Net sales for the second quarter of 2025 changed only marginally compared to the same period last year, amounting to SEK 178.1 million (179.8).

Sales in the Transport and Technology segments in creased by 13.6 percent and 32.9 percent, respectively. Capacity utilisation in both segments was high during the quarter, with the new standby contracts contribut ing positively to the sales growth. Sales in the Contract ing segment declined by 20.8 percent. The lower sales are largely explained by a reduced volume of subcon tractor invoicing. Lower volumes of contracting work in the UK also had a negative impact on sales.

Net sales for the first six months of the year totalled SEK 301.1 million compared to SEK 309.2 million for the corresponding period of the previous year. The decline in sales is primarily attributable to the Con tracting segment, driven by low volumes of contracting work in the UK and a reduced volume of subcontractor invoicing. The Transport segment, on the other hand, increased its net sales during the first half of the year compared to the same period last year. New standby contracts and a slight increase in contracting transport volumes contributed to this growth.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses for the second quarter 2025 increased by 2.5 percent compared to the corresponding quarter last year.

Expenses for the first half-year 2025 increased by 4.5 percent compared to the corresponding period last year.

The increase in costs is mainly attributable to the Transport segment and is driven by the launch of new standby contracts, as well as investments in personnel and equipment to prepare the organisation for upcoming standby contracts and continued growth. The Contracting segment has reduced its costs, primarily due to lower volumes of hired subcontractors.

OPERATING PROFIT

Operating profit (EBIT) for the second quarter 2025 increased by 5.6 percent year-on-year amounting to SEK 18.1 million (17.1). Operating margin increased to 10.2 percent against 9.5 percent in the corresponding quarter of the previous year.

The improved operating margin is primarily attributable to the Technology segment, which, through high capacity utilisation, increased its operating profit to SEK 2.5 million compared with SEK -0.7 million in the same period last year. The Contracting segment also contributed to the improved margin, while the Transport segment was affected by increased costs as the business is being adapted for new assignments.

Operating profit (EBIT) for the first half-year 2025 amounted to SEK 22.5 million (32.2), which corresponds to a 30.1 percent decrease year-on-year. Operating margin amounted to 7.5 percent against 10.4 percent in the corresponding quarter of 2024.

The lower operating margin is largely attributable to the low volumes of contracting work in the UK. The Transport segment also delivered a slightly lower operating margin due to adapting the business to new assignments and preparing for continued growth.

PROFIT FOR THE PERIOD

Profit for the second quarter of 2025 totalled SEK 8.0 million (10.6). Interest expenses are at the same level as in the corresponding period last year, but the SEK has weakened against the EUR, resulting in a negative currency effect for the Group due to future lease commitments in EUR, which are valued at the closing exchange rate.

Profit for the first half-year amounted to SEK 12.5 million

(15.3). Interest expenses for the year are slightly higher than in the comparison period, but the currency effect for the Group is positive compared to the previous year.

CASH FLOW

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to SEK 33.2 million (23.7).

Investments during the quarter totalled SEK 23.0 million (18.4). Investments were primarily financed with internally-generated funds which had a negative impact on cash flow. Borrowing during the quarter amounted to SEK 11.8 million (29.9).

Total cash flow for the second quarter of the year amounted to SEK -21.3 million (-4.1).

For the first half of 2025, cash flow totalled SEK -59.3 million (-30.0). The weaker cash flow is explained by increased amortisation of lease liabilities due to more leased locomotives, as well as lower borrowing.

EQUITY/ASSET RATIO

At the end of the period, the equity/assets ratio was 26.1 percent, compared to 27.9 percent on 30 June 2024.

Financial summary - Contracting

Railcare's contracting operations carry out railway maintenance projects in both Sweden and the UK. Using our proprietary vacuum and ballast machines, we perform various types of railway track maintenance, such as cable location, cable laying, reballasting and snow clearing.

Another part of the contracting business specialises in culvert renovations focused on relining measures beneath railways and roads and at industrial sites, as well as permit inspections of culverts. The relining is carried out without disrupting rail traffic.

Net sales in the Contracting segment in the second quarter of 2025 amounted to SEK 68.9 million (87.0), a decrease of 20.8 percent compared with the corresponding period in the previous year.

The decrease in sales is largely attributable to a reduced volume of subcontractor invoicing. In 2024, Railcare carried out several major ballast replacement projects, which required a significant increase in hired resources. Lower volumes of contracting work in the UK also had a negative impact on sales.

In Sweden, capacity utilisation in the contracting operations has been strong. Assignment volumes in the Relining operations remained higher than in the previous year.

Operating profit in the second quarter was in line with the corresponding period in the previous year, amounting to SEK 6.0 million (6.2). Fixed operating costs in the UK continue to have a negative impact on profit, as volumes remain below expectations.

The segments' net sales also include intra-Group sales between segments. See Note 3 for sales between segments.

Financial summary - Transport

In the Transport operations, Railcare offers railway transport using proprietary locomotives and drivers. The company provides freight, contracting and specialist transport, with transportation licenses in Sweden and Norway.

Railcare transports ore on behalf of the mining industry using round trips. For larger maintenance projects, Railcare provides traction for track replacement trains as well as transport of sleepers and ballast. The company also provides clearance locomotives on standby under assignment from the Swedish Transport Administration.

Net sales in the Transport segment increased by 13.6 percent in the second quarter of 2025 compared with the corresponding quarter in the preceding year and amounted to SEK 95.1 million (83.7). Operating profit was slightly lower in year-on-year terms and amounted to SEK 10.3 million (11.7). The increase in sales is largely due to the standby contracts initiated during the year, as well as a slight increase in the volume of contracting transports.

The segment is still impacted by increased costs from adapting the business to new assignments and preparing for continued growth over the coming years. The cost increase was primarily related to personnel expenses and the machine fleet. In May 2025, standby assignments were initiated in Ånge and Gävle. The assignment in Borlänge will be established at the end of October, and the assignment in Hallsberg will begin in January 2026. Key performance indicators – Transport

NOTE 6 EFFECT OF ADJUSTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES IFRS 16

During Q4 2024, the company adjusted to the IFRS Interpretation Committee's clarification regarding identifiable assets under IFRS 16. The adjustment meant that Railcare reclassified certain locomotive lease contracts from capacity rent to leasing. The adjustment has been applied retroactively and calculated from the start dates of the contracts. The first contracts commenced in 2022. The following tables show the changes resulting from the adjustment for 2024. All adjustments are attributable to the Transport segment.

1) In the Income Statement, the cost of leasing is reallocated to depreciation and interest expenses. Under the previous principles, the leasing cost was included in the 'Raw materials and consumables' item, meaning that this item decreases while depreciation costs increase. This results in an overall increase in operating profit (EBIT). The adjustment results in an increase in financing costs due to interest expenses on the lease liability. Some of the lease agreements are denominated in EUR, so any fluctuations in the EUR exchange rate also impact net financial items.

2) In the Balance Sheet, the contracts are recognized as an asset and depreciated over the contract term. The corresponding value is also recognized as a liability, which is amortized over the contract term. The interest is expensed. As some of the contracts are denominated in EUR, the liability is also recognized in EUR and is converted at the exchange rate as of the Balance Sheet date.

3) In the Cash Flow Statement, cash flow from operating activities increases, while cash flow from financing activities decreases.

Definitions

GENERAL All amounts in the tables are in SEK 000 unless otherwise stated. All values in brackets are comparative figures for
the corresponding period in the preceding year unless otherwise stated. Amounts in tables and other summaries
have been rounded individually. Accordingly, minor rounding differences may be found in totals.

ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES

This Interim Report refers to a number of financial measures not defined in accordance with IFRS, known as alternative performance measures. Railcare uses these performance measures to monitor and analyse the financial outcome of the Group's operations and its financial position. These alternative performance measures are intended to supplement, not replace, the financial measures presented in accordance with IFRS. See definitions and further information below.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
MEASURES
DEFINITION/CALCULATION PURPOSE
Operating profit/loss (EBIT) Calculated as net profit/loss for the period before tax,
profit from holdings in associated companies and financial items.
This performance measure illustrates
the company's
profit/loss generated by operating
activities.
Net financial income/expense Net financial items are calculated as financial income
less financial expenses.
This performance measure illustrates
the net amount from
the company's financial activities.
Total assets Calculated as the total of the company's assets at the end of the
period.
Equity per share, SEK Calculated as equity divided by the number of
shares outstanding at the end of the period.
This performance measure illustrates
the company's
net worth per share.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
MEASURES
DEFINITION/CALCULATION PURPOSE
Sales growth, %
Calculated as the difference between net sales for the period and net
sales for the preceding period, divided by net sales for the preceding
period.
This performance measure illustrates
the company's
growth and historical performance,
contributing to an understanding of the
company's development.
Operating margin, % Calculated as operating profit divided by net sales. This performance measure illustrates
how much of the company's profit/loss
is generated by its operating activities.
Equity/assets ratio, % Calculated as equity divided by total assets. This performance measure illustrates
the company's
financial position and long-term
solvency.
Dividend per share, SEK Dividend per share approved by a General Meeting at which the
Annual Report for the specified financial year is adopted.
Earnings per share before
dilution, SEK
Calculated as profit/loss attributable to Parent Company
shareholders divided by the weighted average number of
shares outstanding in the period.
This performance measure illustrates
the company's
earnings per share, excluding any
dilution effect from
outstanding convertibles.
Earnings per share after
When calculating earnings per share after dilution,
dilution, SEK
the weighted average number of shares
outstanding is adjusted for the dilution effect of all potential shares.
The Parent Company has a category of potential common shares with
a dilution effect: convertible debentures. The convertible debentures
are assumed to have been converted into shares and net profit is
adjusted to eliminate interest expenses less tax effect. Convertible
debentures do not give rise to a dilution effect when the interest per
share that may be received upon conversion exceeds earnings per
share before dilution.
This performance measure illustrates
the company's
earnings per share, excluding any
dilution effect from
outstanding convertibles.
