OUTLOOK
The world needs more efficient healthcare and more reliable communication. Both of these markets offer major scope for expansion. Sectra plays a key role in satisfying these needs by offering products and services in the areas of medical IT and secure communication.
There is a growing need for greater efficiency in healthcare in order to provide care for more patients, due to the demographic trend of an ageing population that is living longer while birth rates are declining. Sectra develops and sells systems and services for medical diagnostic imaging, which help to develop the healthcare sector while making it more efficient. Society also needs to improve how it takes care of age-related diseases. Sectra has several products and services that can contribute to more efficient healthcare and treatment of some of the most costly age-related diseases.
In terms of security, government agencies, defense organizations and the private sector are increasingly exposed to security risks and eavesdropping attempts. Increased

The Group's net financial items rose to SEK 3.8 million (neg: 2.0). Exchange-rate changes had an impact of SEK 1.0 million (neg: 3.2) on the Group's financial items. Profit before tax amounted to SEK 47.2 million (25.1), corresponding to a profit margin of 12.6% (6.9).
Second quarter
After four consecutive quarters with order bookings of more than SEK 200 million, the Group's order bookings in the second quarter amounted to SEK 156.9 million (217.0), due to several factors including lower order bookings from the US market. However, Sectra noted a continued increase in order bookings from healthcare clients in the UK and the Netherlands, which are two key growth markets for the company.
Net sales increased 2.9% to SEK 198.3 million. Successful initiatives in the Netherlands and the UK were primary reasons to the increase. The Group's operating profit rose 27.8% to SEK 29.4 million, corresponding to an operating margin of 14.8% (11.9). The main factor for earnings improvement was greater efficiency in the Imaging IT Solutions business area. Secure Communications still remains impacted by delays from its main Swedish customer.
Net financial items amounted to SEK 2.7 million (1.8). Exchange-rate changes had an impact of SEK 1.6 million (0.9) on the Group's financial items. Profit before tax amounted to SEK 32.1 million (24.8), corresponding to a profit margin of 16.2% (12.9).
Seasonal variations
Sectra is affected by seasonal variations, whereby most invoicing and earnings are traditionally generated at the end of the fiscal year. However, seasonal variations have fallen slightly in recent years due to an increasing proportion of sales being generated by long-term agreements with payment per month or per use. The varying order volumes in terms of individual quarters can be substantial, since Sectra has many major customers that sign extensive, long-term agreements with the company for medical IT projects, for example, or the development of encryption systems.
Financial position
Sectra has a strong cash balance and balance sheet. At the end of the period, the equity/assets ratio was 59.4% and liquidity amounted to a multiple of 2.5. After adjustment for exchange-rate differences, the Group's cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 394.3 million. At the close of the period, the Group's interest-bearing liabilities amounted to SEK 33.3 million, which pertained to convertible debentures to employees and Board members.
The Group's cash flow from operations after changes in working capital amounted to SEK 50.2 million (67.9) for the period, of which SEK 58.2 million (3.9) was attributable to the second quarter. The completion date for customer projects has a major impact on cash flow and the variation between individual quarters is substantial. Cash flow from investing activities amounted to a negative SEK 29.6 million (neg: 53.8) for the period, of which a negative SEK 14.9 million (neg: 5.0) was attributable to the second quarter. The comparative figure for the period includes a negative SEK 46.8 million for the acquisition of the Burnbank companies in the UK. Cash flow from financing activities amounted to a negative SEK 160.2 million (neg: 199.9) for the period, of which a negative SEK 160.2 million (neg: 182.6) was attributable to the second quarter. During the quarter, Sectra distributed SEK 166.9 million (185.5) to shareholders through a redemption program. The Group's total cash flow for the period amounted to a negative SEK 139.6 million (neg: 185.8), of which a negative SEK 116.9 million (neg: 183.7) was attributable to the second quarter.
Investments and depreciation/amortization
Group investments during the period amounted to SEK 29.6 million (53.8), of which SEK 14.9 million (5.0) was attributable to the second quarter. Investments pertained primarily to customer projects in the Group's financing activities and capitalized development costs. The comparative figure for the period includes the acquisition of the Burnbank companies. Depreciation/amortization during the period amounted to SEK 22.2 million (22.3), of which SEK 12.4 million (11.0) was attributable to the second quarter. Depreciation/amortization to the amount of SEK 8.8 million (7.6) during the period was attributable to capitalized development projects.
Due to new, extensive service agreements with customers in the healthcare sector, investments in Group-financed customer projects during the quarter increased to SEK 16.5 million (2.0), of which SEK 7.0 million (0.2) was attributable to the second quarter. At the end of the period, the Group's carrying amount for Group-financed customer projects totaled SEK 43.1 million (35.6).
During the period, capitalization of development costs increased to SEK 12.8 million (4.6), of which SEK 6.4 million (4.4) was attributable to the second quarter. At the close of the period, capitalized development costs totaled SEK 56.6 million (53.1) and primarily pertained to development projects in Imaging IT Solutions.
Sectra's financial goals
Sectra's Group-wide targets and strategies are aimed at building financially sound operations that provide Sectra with opportunities to create customer value and thereby contribute to long-term growth in shareholder value. In the first quarter of 2013, in connection with a review of the financial targets, the Board of Directors decided to change the growth target and establish priorities for the targets. The new targets are (in order of priority):
-
- Stability: The equity/assets ratio must be a minimum of 30% (unchanged)
-
- Profitability: The operating margin (EBIT) must be a minimum of 15% (unchanged)
-
- Growth: The operating profit (EBIT) per share must increase, on average, 10% per year over a five-year period (changed growth target, the previous target was that Sectra's sales would increase, on average, by a minimum of 15% over a seven-year period)
When calculating the growth target, adjustments are made for any changes in the number of shares outstanding due to the cancellation of treasury shares or for bonus issues.
Sectra has posted a negative average annual growth in EBIT per share over the past five-year period, but this negative trend was broken two years ago. For the past two years, EBIT per share has grown by more than 8%. This is a result of Sectra's long-term efforts to achieve greater cost-efficiency while increasing the proportion of products with higher margins, such as software licenses.
For information about the background to the revision of Sectra's financial targets, see Sectra's 2012/2013 Annual Report.

Sales and earnings
Imaging IT Solutions' sales for the period increased 14.1% to SEK 356.8 million. Operating profit rose 143.1% to SEK 63.7 million, corresponding to an operating margin of 17.9% (8.4). Higher sales and a more efficient organization contributed to the earnings improvement.
Market
The market for medical IT systems and services continues to grow due to the major need for systems that increase efficiency and the increased use of medical images in healthcare. Scandinavia, North America and the UK are Sectra's largest markets. In the domestic market in Scandinavia, Sectra is by far the largest provider of IT systems for efficient and secure communication, and the management of medical images (PACS) and patient information (RIS).
In many countries, the uncertain prospects for economic growth and extensive austerity programs have dampened growth, particularly in Europe. The US market was less positive than in the first quarter, which is not surprising considering the uncertainty created by the extended budget negotiations. Sectra's long-term assessment is that demand will recover, since the growing need for greater efficiency and lower costs in the healthcare sector will continue.
Focus 2013/2014
- Growth in regions in which Sectra has an established customer base
- Retain existing customers and broaden the product portfolio with systems and services that contribute to further efficiency enhancements for customers.
- Continue growth in selected growth markets through partners.
Imaging IT Solutions increased both order bookings and sales compared with the yearearlier period, through several long-term service agreements for IT systems that contribute to greater efficiency in the healthcare sector. Successes during the second quarter were primarily attributable to the UK and the Netherlands. The James Paget University Hospital in the UK signed a ten-year agreement with Sectra for a Vendor Neutral Archive (VNA) and Sectra's medical imaging IT system (PACS).
During the second quarter, Sectra and Royal Philips Electronics extended their support agreement until 2020 with an option to extend on a year-by-year basis. Historically, Philips is one of Sectra's major partners. The company offers support to about 200 customers who use Sectra's radiology information system (PACS), originally sold to them by Philips.
Imaging IT Solutions has several new products under development and will commence deliveries to customers during the fiscal year. One of these is a new product for dose monitoring, Sectra DoseTrack. In the second quarter, the service was named "Best New

Sales and earnings
Secure Communications' sales for the period amounted to SEK 35.6 million, down 28.4% compared with the corresponding period in the preceding fiscal year. The operation reported a loss of SEK 3.2 million for the period. During the period, the business area reduced its fixed operating expenses by about 10% following the restructuring that took place at the end of the preceding fiscal year, but remains impacted by delays in procurements and the implementation of planned projects in Sweden. Operating profit was also impacted by delays in major, ongoing product development projects due to changes in Swedish regulatory requirements for the handling of classified information.
Market
The market is driven by the fact that it is easier than ever to eavesdrop telecommunications, by changes to various regulatory frameworks for the handling of classified information, and by the growing number of authorities that want to protect their confidential, although not classified, information. Due to greater collaboration between governments in European countries, customer requests for products that support cross-border cooperation have increased. Sectra offers products that are approved by the EU, NATO and several national security agencies. Sweden and the Netherlands comprise Sectra's largest markets for secure communication systems. The major focus on eavesdropping in recent months may, in future, lead to greater demand for security products from non-US companies.
Focus 2013/2014
- Restore profit levels
- Develop the business area's operations in Sweden and the Netherlands, as well as other countries in which Sectra has an established customer base
At the end of the preceding fiscal year, the Secure Communications operations were restructured and are now focused on completing ongoing development projects and receiving approval from national security agencies and the EU for the new security products Tiger 7401, Panthon 3 and Ternety, in order to commence deliveries. Sectra is also reviewing possibilities to broaden the customer base and its offering in the security area.
Focus on restoring Secure Communications' profit levels.
In the second quarter, the Dutch Government extended its framework agreement with Sectra. The Netherlands purchases secure communication as a service, VECOM, which is used for both national and international communication. The service entails that Sectra supplies a total solution using Tiger products for secure mobile and fixed-voice communication, service and secure administration, as well as support and customized end-user training. The new agreement also enables users to change to Sectra's new secure mobile phone, the Tiger 7401, which was approved by Dutch security authorities in April 2013. An evaluation is currently ongoing to secure EU approval for the Tiger 7401 product.

Business Innovation includes projects and smaller operations with future potential. This segment includes services and products that contribute to more efficient and effective care for osteoporosis and IT systems for planning and following up orthopaedic surgery and research projects.
Sales and earnings
Sectra's future projects and smaller business lines are making continuous progress. During the period, sales in Business Innovation rose 41.6% to SEK 10.9 million. Operating loss amounted to SEK 0.1 million.
More clinics take steps to prevent osteoporosis
Sectra OneScreen, Sectra's online service for identifying individuals at risk of osteoporosis has, to date, been introduced in mammography clinics in eight countries. During the second quarter, Sectra signed agreements for use of the service with customers in the US and the UK. The Allison Breast Center is the first clinic in the US to introduce regular osteoporosis screenings with Sectra OneScreen. The UK customer base was expanded with Spire Roding Hospital, which is part of the large private healthcare Group, Spire Healthcare.

Other operations pertain to Sectra's operations for the financing of customer projects, asset management, and shared functions for administration, Group finances, market communication, IT, regulatory issues and investor relations activities.
Sales and earnings
During the period, sales from Other operations increased 51.5% to SEK 45.9 million. The increase was attributable to Sectra's operations for the financing of customer projects and increased invoicing of internal services due to the new organizational structure. Operating loss amounted to SEK 1.6 million (loss: 2.0).
THE PARENT COMPANY SECTRA AB
The Parent Company includes the head office's functions for Group finances, market communication, IT, regulatory issues and investor relations activities. The Parent Company's income statement and balance sheet are reported on page 17.
During the period, sales in the Parent Company amounted to SEK 34.5 million (10.0), of which SEK 14.4 million (4.8) was attributable to the second quarter. Sales increased due to the new organizational structure that was introduced in May, mainly a result of increased invoicing of internal services. Operating loss for the period was SEK 4.4 million (loss: 6.2), of which a loss of SEK 4.2 million (loss: 1.8) was attributable to the second quarter. Profit after net financial items for the period amounted to SEK 4.3 million (loss: 1.6), of which a loss of SEK 1.5 million (profit: 1.2) was attributable to the second quarter. Exchange-rate changes had an impact of SEK 0.5 million (neg: 1.8) on financial items for the period.
THE SHARE
Sectra's share redemption program 2013
During July and August 2013, Sectra carried out a share redemption program, whereby SEK 4.50 per share, a total of SEK 166.9 million, was distributed to shareholders through a 2:1 share split, combined with a mandatory redemption process and a bonus issue to restore the share capital. Payment was made on August 5, 2013.
In Sweden, the redemption of Sectra's redemption shares 2013 (designated SECT IL B) is declared as sales of shares on Form K4 for the 2014 tax assessment. According to the Swedish Tax Agency's general recommendations, SKV A 2013:18, which was published on October 11, 2013, 92% of the acquisition fee for an original class A or B share in Sectra AB should be assigned to a remaining share and 8% to the redemption share.
For further information and examples, refer to:
- Sectra's website http://www.sectra.com/deklarera2014
- The Swedish Tax Agency's website www.skatteverket.se
The Tax Agency has provided a general recommendation for the declaration of Sectra's redemption shares
Share-related incentive programs
In the second quarter, due to Sectra's share redemption program 2013, the Board of Directors resolved on a recalculation of outstanding convertibles and employee stock options. The recalculation means that the financial compensation to the holders of convertibles in relation to the shareholders is reasonable. For dilution effects and current conversion prices after the recalculation, please refer to the information on Sectra's website under the Investors/Sectra share heading. Sectra has thereafter redeemed employee stock options 2010/2013 issued to employees in North America through a cash settlement.
The 2013 AGM resolved to issue new convertibles to the Group's employees and external Board members. The convertibles were subscribed during the September 23 – October 4 2013 period. In total, employees and Board members subscribed convertibles at a nominal amount of SEK 16.9 million, corresponding to 224,730 Series B shares. The dilution effect of both convertible programs amounts to 0.6% of the share capital and 0.4% of the votes.
