COMMENTS BY THE CEO

STABLE CORE OPERATIONS WITH SOLID MARGIN, GOOD CASH FLOW AND STRATEGIC INITIATIVES ACCORDING TO PLAN

In the third quarter, we implemented several key strategic initiatives to ensure a good future development in our core operations. Several main segments show stability and cautious optimism, but a more comprehensive recovery is not expected until 2026.

Development of the core operations

As previously communicated, we now report our core operation separately from businesses outside our strategic focus. The core operations consist of companies with solid underlying market trends, strong margins and niche products that are often complemented by a service offering, resulting in stable recurring revenues.

Our unit in the core operation showed good demand with a sales increase of 8.8 percent, of which 4.5 percent organic excl. currency. Higher sales volumes and completed acquisitions lifted the core operation's adjusted EBITA to SEK 235 million, an increase of 8.6 percent, of which 2.4 percent organic excluding currency. At the same time, several of the profitability measures we initiated in the previous two quarters have had an effect and stabilised profitability despite price pressure and higher costs, which resulted in us being able to maintain an adjusted EBITA margin of a solid 21.3 percent.

Our larger units within Supply Chain & Transportation have started to recover after a weaker first half of the year when uncertainties in the world resulted in several customers postponing their orders. Safety & Security also had a good quarter and several of the smaller units benefiting from strong global trends, such as data centre security and emission control, have continued to grow. In Energy & Electrification, the outcome was varied, with a couple of units driven by continued strong demand for energy efficiency. At the same time, individual units in the business area continued to have tough comparative figures from the previous year. In Water & Bioeconomy, several units have developed well, but the margin was affected by the cost situation in a couple of units within the business area, where we are working on efficiency improvements and price compensation measures.

The Group's cash flow from operating activities was back at satisfactory levels and amounted to SEK 255 million, corresponding to a cash flow generation of 94 percent. This is mainly a result of normalized inventory levels.

Acquisitions and divestments

The work to divest non-core businesses is progressing according to plan and we have extensive dialogues with several stakeholders. The sales of these units aim to streamline our business while freeing up resources in the form of both management capacity and capital for the core operations. As a result, we have carried out an impairment of goodwill and other surplus values of SEK 500 million, which highlights the strong return found in the core operation.

Our acquisition pipeline remains good and discipline in valuation and strict acquisition criteria are guiding. This affects our previously communicated target of acquiring an annual EBITA of approximately SEK 100 million by 2025, which we have adjusted down to approximately SEK 50 million.

Outlooks

We assess the market as stable to cautiously positive in several of our main segments, although a broader recovery does not appear to materialise until 2026. With a focused and well-diversified core business, a clear capital allocation agenda and a focus on organic growth, we are well positioned to continue creating long-term value over time.

During the autumn, we have continued our strategy work, and we look forward to sharing more at our Capital Markets Day on 28 November in Stockholm. We hope that many of you will have the opportunity to participate, and I would like to take this opportunity to extend a warm welcome to you all.

Anders Mattson, President and CEO

SALES, EARNINGS AND CASH FLOW

Comments refer to Group unless otherwise stated.

As previously announced in the interim report for the second quarter of 2025, the businesses that do not align with the Group's strategic direction have been separated from the core operations and will be reported separately from the third quarter of 2025 as "Other Operations". In connection with this, a revaluation of goodwill and other intangible assets has been carried out, which is charged to the result with a non-cash one-off impact of SEK -500 million.

JULY TO SEPTEMBER

Net sales

Net sales for the core operations amounted to SEK 1,102 million (1,012) during the quarter, an increase of 9 percent compared with the corresponding period last year. Organic units in the core operations contributed SEK 1,012 million (1,012), corresponding to an increase of 5 percent excluding currency effects. Other operations contributed SEK 151 million (198). Total net sales for the Group thus amounted to SEK 1,253 million (1,210). For more detailed information, please refer to Business Areas.

The graph below refers to core operations:

Result

Operating profit, EBIT, for the quarter amounted to SEK -293 million (203), impairment of goodwill and surplus values attributable to other operations had a negative impact of SEK -500 million. Adjusted EBITA in the core operations amounted to SEK 235 million (216), corresponding to an adjusted EBITA margin of 21.3% (21.3), of which organic units contributed SEK 230 million (233), a change of 2%, excluding currency effects. Non-organic units contributed SEK 22 million to profit for the period, and central units contributed SEK -18 million (-17). Other operations also contributed SEK 8 million (15), resulting in a total adjusted EBITA of SEK 242 million (231).

Net financial items amounted to SEK -85 million (-69). The increase is affected by unrealized foreign exchange losses, which contributed SEK -14 million (-5) and interest expenses totalling SEK -68 million (-63), of which SEK -16 million (-16) related to discount rates for contingent consideration and leases.

The Group's profit after tax amounted to SEK -419 million (91), of which impairment of goodwill and surplus values had a negative impact of SEK -500 million. The Group's total profit, including operations under divestment, amounted to SEK -451 million (38). Earnings per ordinary share amounted to SEK -11.14 (2.28), adjusted for the impairment, earnings were SEK 2.03 (2.28). Earnings per ordinary share including discontinued operations amounted to SEK -11.99 (0.88), adjusted for impairment, the result was SEK 2.09 (1.75).

The return on capital employed amounted to 12.0 (12.9) percent. The decrease compared to the previous year was mainly due to an increase in capital employed. Return on capital employed, excluding goodwill and acquired intangible assets, amounted to 51 percent (54). Return on equity was -4.0 (10.2) percent.

BUSINESS AREAS

Sdiptech's core operations is divided into four business areas: Supply Chain & Transportation, Energy & Electrification, Water & Bioeconomy and Safety & Security. In addition, central units and costs are included in their entirety in the core operations. The Group's units that are not part of the core o are intended to be divested. The sale of these 11 units is aimed at streamlining the Group's operations in accordance with the strategy set in 2018/2019. For more information about each business area, please see: www.sdiptech.com

Net sales per business area Q3 2025, % Adjusted EBITA-margin % per business area

SUPPLY CHAIN & TRANSPORTATION

Sales increased by just over 3 percent during the quarter and several units have gradually started to recover after a weaker first half of the year when several customers postponed their orders. The business area's adjusted EBITA increased by 11 percent at the same time, with several units able to increase their profits more than sales through good scalability. This has resulted in a margin strengthening for the business area.

ENERGY & ELECTRIFICATION

Despite high comparable figures in individual units, sales increased by 6 percent in the quarter. This was driven primarily by good demand for energy efficiency solutions, but also by new acquisitions. Despite an increase in sales in several units, this could not compensate for the unusually high profitability levels that some of the business area's seasonal and project-oriented operations contributed to last year. This resulted in the business area's adjusted EBITA and EBITA margin decreasing in the quarter from the previous year.

WATER & BIOECONOMY

Sales increased by 6 percent in the quarter, driven by good demand in several units within the business area. At the same time, the business area's adjusted EBITA decreased by 11 percent, primarily driven by higher costs in the personnel-intensive companies in the UK, which continue to work on efficiency improvements and price compensation measures to counteract this.

SAFETY & SECURITY

Sales increased by 76 percent in the quarter. The strong development was driven partly by acquired companies, partly by good organic development where we see strong demand for our solutions within emission control, data center security and physical perimeter security. At the same time, the business area's adjusted EBITA increased by 88 percent and the already high margin in the business area has thus increased further.

OTHER OPERATIONS

The weaker market for construction-related businesses had a negative impact on sales, which decreased by 24 percent during the quarter, although some businesses in areas such as indoor climate control and energy efficiency saw increased demand. The comparison period last year was also characterized by several major projects that have now been completed, primarily in the installation of security systems and electricity and water meter replacements. The lower sales volume affects the units' profitability levels, even though we have worked to reduce the cost base for several of these operations.

BALANCE SHEET AND CASH FLOW

Comments refer to Group unless otherwise stated.

FINANCIAL POSITION JULY TO SEPTEMBER Cash Flow

Cash flow from operating activities after changes in working capital was SEK 255 million (167), while cash flow generation during the period was 94 percent (67). Free cash flow per share increased to SEK 5.24 (2.16) through stronger cash flow from operations and a lower level of investment in fixed assets.

Following the previous quarter's inventory build-up in units facing major deliveries, we were able to reduce inventory during the third quarter. This has had a positive impact on cash flow during the period.

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -183 million (-194), of which adjustment of contingent purchase prices during the period amounted to SEK -156 million (-136). Investments in intangible and property, plant and equipment amounted to SEK -27 million (-58). Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK -46 million (31), of which net borrowing was SEK -10 million (63).

Cash flow from operating activities and cash generation %, LTM

Liabilities

The net debt/equity ratio at the balance sheet date was 3.20 (3.08), impacted by acquisitions made since September previous year. Net financial debt, excluding contingent consideration liabilities, amounted to SEK 2.42 (2.09), mainly impacted by paid contingent purchase prices.

Financing

A new loan agreement was signed in the spring of 2025 on more favourable terms for refinancing existing loans and an increase in the credit line from SEK 2,850 million to SEK 3,825 million. The agreement runs for three years with an option for a two-year extension and includes, among other things, increased credit facilities and an additional lender. The new agreement supports the Group's growth strategy.

The Group's total utilized credit volume as of September 30, 2025, within the total credit line of SEK 3,825 million with the Group's lenders, amounted to a total of approximately SEK 2,325 million. Together with the Group's cash and cash equivalents of SEK 579 million, there are approximately SEK 2,079 million in available funds. In addition, the Group has an outstanding sustainability-linked bond of SEK 800 million, maturing in August 2027.

Non-organic units contributed SEK 64 million to profit for the period, and central units contributed SEK -61 million (53) including non-recurring items (SEK -3 million). Other operations also contributed SEK 23 million (68), resulting in a total adjusted EBITA of SEK 735 million (750).

Net financial items amounted to SEK -245 million (-197), including unrealized foreign exchange losses of SEK -42 million (-1) and interest expenses totalling SEK -201 million (-192), of which SEK -50 million (-50) related to non-cash discount rates for contingent purchase prices and leases.

The Group's profit after tax amounted to SEK -254 million (328), of which impairment of goodwill and surplus value had a negative impact of SEK -500 million. The Group's total profit, including operations under divestment, amounted to SEK -290 million (262).

Cash Flow

Cash flow from operating activities after changes in working capital was SEK 558 million (533), cash flow generation during the period was 71 percent (74). Free cash flow per share increased to SEK 9.58 (7.84) mainly due to a lower level of investment in fixed assets.

Cash flow was in the second quarter affected by inventory build-up in the Group's operations that have seasonally affected sales and operations with project-based sales processing. During the third quarter, inventory levels normalized, and cash flow was back to satisfactory levels. Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -741 million (-687). Cash flow is primarily linked to acquisitions and during the period amounted to new acquisitions of SEK -244 million (-327) and settlement of contingent purchase prices, which amounted to SEK -383 million (-218). Investments in intangible and property, plant and equipment amounted to SEK - 114 million (-159). Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK 355 million (7), of which net borrowing amounted to SEK 453 million (95).

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. In addition, the quarter was impacted by non-recurring items that are mainly related to staff departures.

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. The work to divest the operations that are not part of the core operations is progressing according to plan. These operations are reported as "other operations", however, without being classified according to IFRS 5.

Discontinued Operations

During the third quarter 2024, it was decided to initiate a process for the divestment of the Group's unit for the manufacture of special elevators, installation and elevator service in Central Europe. The unit is reported separately from the third quarter of 2024 and for all comparable periods and is presented in the row Discontinued Operations.

At the end of the period, the sale has not yet been completed. The delay is due to circumstances beyond the Group's control and there is sufficient evidence that the Group will continue to carry out the divestment. Against this background, the classification according to IFRS 5.9 remains. During the period, the book value was written down by SEK -33 million (-33).

Personnel

The number of employees in the Group at the end of the period was 2,158 (2,095) at the end of the period. Completed acquisitions in the past twelve months have increased the number of employees by 96. The number of employees in discontinued operations amounts to 269 (306).

Incentive program

At the 2025 Annual General Meeting, it was resolved on a new incentive program for managers and senior executives in the form of warrants for shares of series B. The program comprises 650,000 warrants divided into two series maturing in 2028 and 2029, respectively, with subscription prices of SEK 268.30 per share, and SEK 281.70 respectively. The warrants have not yet been subscribed.

For information about other existing incentive programs, please refer to the Annual Report for 2024.

Financial risks and uncertainties

With 30 companies in the core operations, 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 material risk and uncertainty factors, please refer to the detailed description in the Annual Report for 2024. 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 the prevailing conditions.

Related party transactions

There are no significant related party transactions within the Group.

Events after the end of the reporting period

No other significant events have occurred after the end of the period.

During the first nine months of the year, Sdiptech AB (publ) has acquired all shares in Phase 3 Connectors Ltd (Phase 3). The company designs, manufactures and supplies high-quality single-pole power connectors for the industrial and event sectors, meeting the highest standards of safety and performance both in the UK and internationally. In addition, two smaller add-on acquisitions have been made through Sdiptech's subsidiary Certus and of Kemi-tech. For more information see: www.sdiptech.com

If the acquired units for the period had been consolidated as of 1 January 2025, Net sales from January to September would have amounted to approximately SEK 3,885 million and adjusted EBITA would have amounted to approximately SEK 749 million.

Acquisition accounting

The acquisition analysis is preliminary. The acquisition analysis is kept open for 12 months from the date of entry. For more information, see the Group's Annual Report 2024, Note 3.

Transaction costs for acquisitions are expensed during the periods in which they occur, and the services are performed. These costs. together with costs for divestments. are recognized in the income statement under the item "Other external costs". Acquisition costs for the period January to September 2025 amounted to SEK 10 million (9).

Goodwill corresponding to SEK 201 million resulting from the transactions and is based on several factors, which can largely be attributed to synergy effects, employees and market shares for the acquired companies.

During the quarter, payment for contingent considerations were settled in an amount of SEK 156 million, for the first nine months of the year SEK 383 million.

Goodwill and intangible assets

As part of the strategic review initiated by the Board of Directors, Sdiptech has identified certain subsidiaries for which a divestment is being considered. In accordance with IAS 36, goodwill is monitored and tested at the level of cash generating units (CGUs) within the Group, which in Sdiptech's case corresponds to its operating segment.

The management has subsequently determined the fair value for each segment and for the companies included in the divestment plan through an updated impairment test for 2025, after which an impairment need of SEK 500 million for other operations has been identified.

Dividends

In March 2015, 1,750,000 preference shares were issued with an issue price of SEK 100 per share. Dividend amounts to SEK 8 per year, divided into quarterly payments. Redemption price is SEK 120 during 0-24 months after the exhibition, SEK 110 during month 25-48, and SEK 105 thereafter. Dividends on preference shares require a general meeting resolution, but redemption can be decided by the board according to the articles of association. The holders of the preference shares have no right to demand redemption or demand a dividend. The dividend on preference shares is regulated in the Articles of Association. The dividend amounts to SEK 14.0 million annually, divided into SEK 3.5 million per quarter, with payment in March, June, September and December.

Definitions alternative performance measures

Sdiptech presents alternative financial performance measures in addition to those established under IFRS. The purpose is to provide a better understanding of the business's development and financial position. However, these performance measures should not be seen as a substitute for IFRS-based performance measures. Alternative performance measures are presented in the interim report for monitoring 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 goal 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 generation

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:

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:

This interim report has been subject to review by the company's auditors.

Auditor's report

Sdiptech AB (publ) org nr 556672-4893

Introduction

We have conducted a limited review of the condensed interim financial information (interim report) for Sdiptech AB (publ) as of 30 September 2025, and the nine-month period ending on that date. The board of directors and the managing director are responsible for preparing and presenting this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our limited review.

The focus and scope of the limited review

We have conducted our limited review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity." A limited review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, performing analytical procedures, and other review procedures. A limited review has a different focus and a significantly smaller scope compared to the focus and scope of an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and generally accepted auditing standards. The review procedures taken in a limited review do not enable us to obtain the assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might have been identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a limited review does not have the assurance that a conclusion expressed based on an audit has.

Conclusion

Based on our limited review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not, in all material respects, prepared for the group in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act and for the parent company in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.

Payment of dividends to preference shareholders

For each preference share, an annual dividend of SEK 8.00 is paid, divided into four quarterly payments of SEK 2.00 each. The record dates for receipt of dividends of preference shares until next annual general meeting is:

  • 15 December 2025
  • 13 March 2026

Segment Reporting, Pro Forma Q1 2023 – Q3 2025

Sdiptech acquired and operated companies up until the turn of the year 2018/2019 based on a strategy and set of criteria that differ from those applied today. At that time, "Sdiptech 2.0" was launched, marking a shift in focus for the core operations, both in terms of business orientation and financial criteria. As part of the ambition to allocate capital more efficiently and concentrate on operations with the strongest long-term potential, a group of companies has been identified that Sdiptech intends to find new owners for. Starting from the third quarter of 2025, these companies will be reported separately as "Other Operations."

A pro forma presentation of the Group's core operations and the Other Operations' revenue, adjusted EBITA, and margin is shown below:
