COMMENTS BY THE CEO

STABLE ORGANIC PROFIT GROWTH AND MOMENTUM IN STRATEGIC INITIATIVES

In the first quarter of 2026, net sales for the group increased organically by 6 percent and earnings were stable with organic profit growth of 4 percent, excluding currency effects. All in all, we see a solid demand for our business units' products and services in our four business areas, all of which are benefiting from underlying structural growth.

Momentum in strategic execution

During the first quarter, we completed nine divestments and in total, we have now divested ten of the eleven companies included in the strategic review initiated in 2025. The transactions were completed on average at multiples above 6x EBITA and generated a positive cash flow of SEK 258 million in the quarter.

We continue to work actively with a focus on returns from each business unit. The return on the group's capital employed, ROCE, amounted to 12.8 percent in the quarter, compared with 12.5 percent in the first quarter last year.

During the quarter, we have redeemed all Sdiptech's preference shares for a total redemption amount of SEK 184 million, to streamline our capital structure. Despite this measure, we have reduced our net debt/equity ratio to 2.81 in the first quarter. The cash position at the end of the quarter was strong and we have had the opportunity to continue to streamline our financing after the end of the quarter, through the repurchase of SEK 250 million of the group's outstanding bonds.

Financial development in the quarter

The demand for our products and services was generally solid in the first quarter, which resulted in stable organic growth and profitability. This is particularly evident in the Energy & Electrification and Security & Safety business areas, both of which showed a profit growth of more than 15 percent in the first quarter, driven by strong trends in electrification and data centre security solutions.

Within Water & Bioeconomy, we continue to focus on operational improvements. Several of our business units in the area recorded stable demand, but operational as well as organisational measures have been taken, resulting in a larger cost base, compared with the previous year. With higher volumes in the business area, we expect margins to recover during the year.

Net sales in our largest business area, Supply Chain & Transportation, developed steadily in the first quarter, with a growth of 4 percent, excluding currency effects, which is positive after last year's cautious market. Several units within the business area developed well in the quarter, including for example our operations in forklift accessories. However, results were negatively impacted as strong order intake in a couple of larger units could only begin to be delivered towards the end of the period.

Cash flow from operating activities was weaker during the quarter, SEK 116 million, mainly due to a higher proportion of deliveries toward the end of the period, which increased trade receivables and temporarily had a negative impact on cash flow. In addition, inventory build-up occurred in several units to mitigate potential supply chain disruptions due to the geopolitical situation. On a rolling twelve-month basis, we continue to have a solid cash conversion rate of 82%.

Increased pace in M&A

In 2026, we have increased our M&A activity in line with our growth strategy. We are engaged in several ongoing constructive discussions, and after the end of the first quarter we were pleased to welcome Rail Safety Systems (RSS), which will be part of the Supply Chain & Transportation business area. RSS is based in the Netherlands and has extensive experience in railway safety, as well as a strong position in the European market with its own market-leading products.

Growth - our focus going forward

2026 is the starting year for our updated strategy and financial targets. We have clear guidelines and targets for our focused portfolio, we have a strong pipeline for upcoming acquisitions, and we have strengthened our capital structure. Overall, the first quarter was a successful period for our strategic work, both in terms of the divestment program, and the implementation of our updated strategy and ways of working.

Looking ahead, our full focus is on driving sustainable, long-term growth—both organic and acquisitive—based on available free cash flow and disciplined capital allocation.

SUPPLY CHAIN & TRANSPORTATION

Our largest business area, Supply Chain & Transportation, performed well, with a stable order intake in the first quarter after last year's cautious market. The business area's forklift accessories unit, for example, showed strong development. Net sales increased by 4 percent in total and adjusted EBITA decreased by -1 percent compared with the first quarter of 2025, excluding currency effects. In addition to currency effects, earnings were negatively impacted by the fact that sales of a couple of larger units could not begin to be delivered until the end of the period and a delayed investment in the US, which resulted in increased costs.

After the end of the period, the Dutch company Rail Safety Systems (RSS), which delivers solutions in railway safety, was acquired. RSS is a strong addition to our growing railway cluster.

ENERGY & ELECTRIFICATION

Net sales increased by 14 percent in the business area and adjusted EBITA increased by 18 percent in the first quarter, driven by good demand and profitability across all business units. The business area specifically sees a demand for products and solutions driven by increased energy costs, electrification of industry and transport, and energy efficiency.

WATER & BIOECONOMY

The business area developed weakly in the quarter with a decrease in net sales of -7 percent, largely impacted by currency effects, and a decrease in adjusted EBITA of -28 percent compared to the first quarter last year. The area has focused on operational improvements, price compensation measures and organizational changes in 2025, and a few business units have continued ongoing changes in the first quarter that have a negative impact on earnings. The business area's unit specialising in claims management for underground infrastructure showed strong development with good demand for its claims handling services.

SAFETY & SECURITY

Net sales in our smallest business area developed very well in the quarter, increasing by 9 percent compared to the first quarter last year, and adjusted EBITA increased by 16 percent. The business area shows strong underlying growth and good profitability in all security areas such as data centers, clean air in hospital environments and secure communication. The improved profitability is a result of a better product mix and a higher proportion of service and software compared to the previous year.

CASH FLOW AND BALANCE SHEET

Comments refer to Group unless otherwise stated.

FINANCIAL POSITION JANUARY TO MARCH

Cash Flow

Cash flow from operating activities after changes in working capital was SEK 116 million (170). Cash flow generation during the period amounted to 54 (74) percent. Free cash flow per share amounted to SEK 1.36 (2.75).

Working capital developed negatively during the quarter. Inventories increased due to seasonal inventory build-up in some units as well as inventory build-up to counter possible disruptions in supply chains due to the geopolitical situation. Cash flow from trade receivables developed negatively, driven by a higher share of deliveries at the end of the period. Other current operating receivables increased mainly due to increased processing in larger projects.

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK 184 million (-272). Divestments contributed SEK 258 million (-). Investments in intangible and property, plant and equipment amounted to SEK -38 million (-39). Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK -225 million (204), of which redemption of the preference share amounted to SEK -184 million (-).

Sdiptech AB (publ.) | Interim Report January-March 2026 | Corp. id no. 556672-4893


PARENT COMPANY, RISK AND OTHER EVENTS

Parent company and central units

Central units consist of the Group's parent company Sdiptech AB and the Group's holding company. The Parent Company's revenues consist of an intra-group invoiced management fee, directed to the subsidiaries for the Parent Company's services. The costs consist of expenses for central functions such as management, acquisition teams, group finances and other central functions.

Other operations

From the third quarter of 2025, Sdiptech's operations that are part of the long-term strategic direction are reported as "core operations" as the group streamlines its business focus in line with the strategy set in 2018/2019. As of the balance sheet date, divestments have been completed for all units except one. Divestment units are reported in the report as "Other operations" as long as they are part of the Group but are not classified according to IFRS 5.

Discontinued Operations

At the end of the period, the sale of the Group's unit for the manufacture of special elevators, installation and elevator service in Central Europe had not yet been completed. The delay relates to legal formalities within the relevant jurisdiction and relates to circumstances beyond the Group's control. There is still sufficient evidence that the Group still intends and is expected to complete the divestment. Against this background, the classification according to IFRS 5.9 remains.

Personnel

The number of employees in the Group at the end of the period was 1,896 (2,185). Completed acquisitions during the past twelve months have increased the number of employees by 10 employees and completed divestments have reduced the number of employees by 295 employees. The number of employees in operations under divestment amounts to 257 (278).

Risks and uncertainties

With more than 30 companies, the Group's operations are spread across several industries and geographies, and exposure to individual customers and suppliers is also limited. This limits business and financial risks. For a description of the Group's significant risk and uncertainty factors, please refer to the detailed description in the Annual Report for 2025. We are seeing some impact from the recent escalation of trade barriers and geopolitical unrest. We are following developments closely to ensure that we conduct our operations in the best possible way based on current conditions.

Related party transactions

There are no significant related party transactions within the Group.

Redemption of preference shares

In accordance with the redemption provision in the Articles of Association, the Annual General Meeting has carried out a mandatory redemption of all 1,750,000 preference shares in connection with the last dividend resolved by the Annual General Meeting 2025. The total redemption proceeds amounted to SEK 183,750,000, corresponding to SEK 105.00 per preference share.

Events after the end of the reporting period

On 3 April 2026, Sdiptech has repurchased sustainability-linked bonds 2023/2027 for cash consideration at a price of 103.00 per cent of the nominal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. In total, bonds were redeemed to a value of SEK 250 million. The acquisition of the Dutch company Rail Safety Systems was completed, becoming the tenth business unit within Supply Chain & Transportation from April 2026.

Sdiptech Annual General Meeting 2026

The 2026 Annual General Meeting will be held on 25 May 2026 at 4.00 p.m. at the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences (IVA), Grev Turegatan 16, Stockholm. Notice of the Annual General Meeting has been published on the company's website on the 20 April. All shareholders who are registered in the share register as of the record date 15 May 2026 may participate in person or by proxy. The notification must be made to the company as stated in the notice.

Annual Report 2025

The Annual Report for 2025 was published on April 20 and is available on Sdiptech's website.

Dividend

The Board of Directors proposes that no dividend be paid on ordinary shares of class A or ordinary shares of class B, but that the remaining earnings be carried forward in order to have financial preparedness for continued acquisitions.

Accounting principles

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (EIJ). This interim report for the Group has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and applicable provisions in the Annual Accounts Act. The Interim Report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, which is in accordance with the provisions of RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities.

The same accounting principles and calculation bases have been applied for the Group and the Parent Company as in the preparation of the most recent annual report for the 2025 financial year. As a result of rounding off, differences in summaries may appear in the interim report.

New and amended standards for the financial year 2026

No expected effects are expected from new or amended standards under IFRS in 2026. As of 1 January 2027, the IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements enters into force and replaces parts of IAS 1. The standard introduces new requirements for the presentation of the income statement and increased disclosure requirements, including with regard to management's defined key performance indicators. The company has begun an analysis of the effects of the introduction and believes that the standard will primarily affect the presentation and disclosures in the financial statements.

Key estimates and assessments

Estimates and assessments are evaluated on an ongoing basis and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are considered reasonable under current conditions. For more detailed information, please refer to Note 1 in the Annual Report 2025.

Business segment information

Discontinues operations

During the third quarter of 2024, it was decided to initiate a sale of the Group's unit for the manufacture of special elevators, installation and elevator service in Central Europe. At the end of the period, the sale had not yet been completed. The delay relates to legal formalities within the relevant jurisdiction and relates to circumstances beyond the Group's control. There is still sufficient evidence that the Group still intends and expects to complete the divestment, whereupon the classification according to IFRS 5.9 remains.

Geographical distribution of Net Sales

Over the years, Sdiptech has acquired units outside Sweden; in Norway, Finland, the United Kingdom, Croatia (with significant operations in Germany), the Netherlands, Italy and Denmark. In addition, the group's units have subsidiaries in, for example, the USA, Malaysia, Taiwan and New Zealand. The Group's business units have customers mainly locally and regionally in their respective geographies, but exports also occur.

Sales breakdown by revenue type

Over the years, Sdiptech has mainly acquired product-based companies. As an important complement, these companies have service and installation offerings for these products, which ties customers closer to the companies. The service offer also provides an underlying recurring revenue as a solid basis for sales.

Definitions alternative performance measures

Sdiptech presents alternative financial performance measures in addition to those established in accordance with IFRS. The purpose is to provide a better understanding of the development of the business and the financial position. However, these performance measures should not be seen as a replacement for IFRS-based performance measures. Alternative performance measures are presented in the interim report for follow-up of the Group's operations. The alternative performance measures presented in this interim report relate to adjusted EBITA, adjusted EBITDA, net debt/adjusted EBITDA, financial net debt/adjusted EBITDA, return on capital employed, cash flow generation, earnings per ordinary share and earnings per ordinary share after dilution and free cash flow per share, which are described below.

Adjusted EBITA

Adjusted EBITA is the Group's operational performance measure and is calculated as EBITA adjusted for acquisition and divestment costs, earnings from revaluation of contingent considerations, capital gains on disposals, items affecting comparability relating to non-material corrections of previous years in the subsidiaries and depreciation and amortisation that are not acquisition-related but derive from the operating units' intangible assets. The KPI facilitates comparisons of EBITA over time by excluding the impact from items affecting comparability. It is also used internally as a central financial KPI for the business.

Adjusted EBITA-margin

Adjusted EBITA in relation to net sales.

EBITDA

Operating profit before depreciation and amortization.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA adjusted for acquisition and divestment costs, profit from revaluation of contingent considerations, capital gains on disposals, items affecting comparability relating to non-material corrections of previous years in the subsidiaries.

EBITA

Operating profit after depreciation of tangible fixed assets before impairment. The key figure enables comparisons of profitability over time regardless of depreciation and impairment of acquisition-related intangible assets and regardless of the corporate tax rate and the company's financing structure. However, depreciation of tangible assets is included, which is a measure of the resource consumption necessary to generate the result.

Financial net debt/Adjusted EBITDA

Calculated as net financial debt at the balance sheet date, including liabilities to credit institutions, outstanding bonds and lease liabilities (mainly discounted leases), in relation to adjusted EBITDA for the last four quarters. Net financial debt includes current and long-term interest-bearing liabilities less cash like items, but excludes liabilities related to contingent considerations on acquisitions.

Net debt/Adjusted EBITDA

Calculated as net debt at the balance sheet date in relation to adjusted EBITDA for the last four quarters. Net debt includes current and long-term interest-bearing liabilities, less cash like items. Certain interest-bearing liabilities relate to contingent considerations on acquisitions, which are settled after the end of the vesting period depending on earnings developments. In order for the debt to be settled to its full book value, a higher level of profit and loss is required than the current.

Capital employed

Calculated as average equity and net debt for the last four quarters, less cash-like items and short-term investments.

Return on capital employed (ROCE)

Calculated as EBITA for the last four quarters in relation to average capital employed at the time of the year-end.

Return on equity

Calculated as average profit after tax attributable to shareholders, adjusted for dividends to preference shares, for the last four quarters, in relation to average equity attributable to shareholders adjusted for preference capital for the last four quarters at the time of closing of the financial statements.

Cash flow conversion

Calculated as cash flow from operating activities in relation to profit before tax, adjusted for non-cash items.

Free cash flow per share

Calculated as cash flow from operating activities, adjusted for investments in tangible and intangible assets and lease amortization, in relation to the average number of shares outstanding during the period.

Earnings per ordinary share

Calculated as profit after tax attributable to parent company shareholders, less dividends to preference shareholders, divided by the number of ordinary shares outstanding at the end of the period.

Adjusted EBITA

The costs and revenues that are excluded when calculating adjusted EBITA have historically amounted to the amounts below:

Adjustment items, (SEK million) Jan-Mar 2026 Jan-Mar 2025 LTM Mar 2026 Jan-Dec 2025
Adjustment of liability for earnings 0 0 39 39
Acquisition and divestment cost -7 -8 -12 -13
Divestments -84 - -25 59
Provisions for potential adjustments of previous year in subsidiaries -4 - -47 -43
Sum adjustment items EBITDA -95 -9 -45 41
Acquisition-related amortization and write-downs of non-current assets 26 28 106 108
Total adjustment items EBITA -69 20 61 150

Revaluation of liabilities relating to contingent consideration may entail a corresponding income, if liabilities have been written down, or a cost if the liabilities have been written down. The fact that these items vary over time depends on the development of the participating companies and future forecasts. An evaluation of this development compared to book values takes place every quarter and may result in various revaluations affecting earnings.

Effects on adjusted EBITA, compared to EBITA, are distributed as follows:

Adjusted EBITA to EBIT (SEK million) Jan-Mar 2026 Jan-Mar 2025 LTM Mar 2026 Jan-Dec 2025
Adjusted EBITA 246 251 1,015 1,020
Adjustment items -95 -9 -45 41
Non-acquisition-related amortization and write-downs of non-current assets 11 13 44 46
EBITA 162 255 1,014 1,108
Non-acquisition related amortization of non-current assets -11 -13 -44 -46
Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets - - -500 -500
Acquisition-related amortization and write-downs of non-current assets -26 -28 -106 -108
EBIT 125 214 363 454
