Quarterly Report

Annualised series production remained at 3.2 million Engine Equivalents in the third quarter, reinforcing the recovery of the past year. Together, 2Q and 3Q 2021 tied as the third highest quarters in SinterCast series production history.
Series production remained strong throughout the third quarter, with many customers bypassing the traditional summer shutdown period to meet the market demand, providing the second-highest July on record. The quarter closed with 3.6 million Engine Equivalents in September, representing the third highest month in SinterCast history, only surpassed by September and October 2019, at 3.9 million and 3.7 million Engine Equivalents respectively. Ultimately, series production for the third quarter finished at 3.2 million Engine Equivalents, providing 14% year-onyear growth and 29% year-to-date growth. In perspective, the second and third quarters both finished at 3.2 million Engine Equivalents, jointly becoming the third highest quarters in SinterCast history.
Revenue for the quarter increased by 32%, with approximately half of the increase coming from higher series production and half coming from increased engineering service and equipment sales as international travel started to resume. Year-to-date revenue benefitted from a 29% increase in series production and a 67% increase in Sampling Cup shipments, but was offset by lower installation revenue and unfavourable exchange rates. Ultimately, the year-to-date revenue finished up by 25%.
The ongoing semiconductor supply challenges continued to hinder vehicle production in some of our key highvolume programmes. Although some improvements and stabilisation have been realised, it is reasonable to expect that the supply challenges will remain well into 2022, and perhaps beyond. In our largest end-user market in North America, semiconductor shortages have led to all-time low vehicle inventory levels and strong demand for new vehicles. Ultimately, the pent up demand and the need to rebuild vehicle inventories provides the basis for a strong and sustained production outlook that is expected to drive demand into 2023. The near-term production outlook is also buoyed by the pending start of commercial vehicle engine production at FAW in China and at Scania in Sweden, with strong growth expected in 2022 and 2023, providing the ambition to reach the four million Engine Equivalent milestone during 2022.
Installation revenue in the third quarter amounted to SEK 2.5 million, primarily due to the installation of a Mini-System 4000 for product development at an undisclosed industrial power foundry in Asia. The formal completion of the System 4000 Plus installations at Scania and FAW were also realised during the third quarter, contributing to the revenue. The outlook for the fourth quarter is particularly busy, with planned installations of a System 4000 at the Impro foundry in Mexico and a Ladle Tracker at the Hyundai foundry in Korea. These activities provide the opportunity for fourth quarter revenue to challenge the first three quarters and to increase the installation revenue to a historical full-year average of approximately SEK 8 million before year-end.
Installation discussions are ongoing for CGI process control systems, capacity upgrades, and Tracking Technologies installations. In addition to these current installation opportunities, SinterCast is also investigating the development of other unique technologies – within and beyond the scope of thermal analysis – to improve quality and production efficiency in the metals industry, and to broaden our product portfolio and our production base.
The revenue for the SinterCast Group relates primarily to income from equipment, series production and engineering service.

The business activities of SinterCast are best reflected by the Operating Result. This is because the "Result for the period after tax" and the "Earnings per Share" are influenced by the financial income and costs and by the revaluation of tax assets.
| Results Summary | July−September | January−September | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (Amounts in SEK million if not otherwise stated) | 2021 | 2020 | 2021 | 2020 |
| Operating result | 8.0 | 3.6 | 23.7 | 12.3 |
| Result for the period after tax | 7.4 | 3.7 | 25.7 | 13.3 |
| Earnings per share (SEK) | 1.0 | 0.5 | 3.6 | 1.9 |
The July−September 2021 operating result increased by 122% to SEK 8.0 million (SEK 3.6 million). The increase is primarily because of a SEK 6.1 million increase in revenue, resulting in a SEK 4.4 million increase in gross margin; an increase in operating costs of SEK 1.4 million, primarily due to increases in the number of employees; and, increases in other operating income of SEK 1.3 million. The result for the period after tax increased by 102% to SEK 7.4 million (SEK 3.7 million).
The January−September 2021 operating result increased by 93% to SEK 23.7 million (SEK 12.3 million). The increase is primarily because of a SEK 15.3 million increase in revenue, resulting in a SEK 10.8 million increase in gross margin; an increase in operating costs of SEK 2.5 million, primarily due to increases in the number of employees; and, increases in other operating income of SEK 3.2 million. Tax income amounted to SEK 3.9 million (SEK 0.0 million) following the revaluation of the deferred tax asset. The result for the period after tax increased by 93% to SEK 25.7 million (SEK 13.3 million). During the period, no government support in relation to Covid-19 has been received.
| Cashflow Summary | January−September | Cashflow Changes | |
|---|---|---|---|
| (Amounts in SEK million if not otherwise stated) | 2021 | 2020 | 2021 vs 2020 |
| Cashflow from operations, before change in working capital | 25.0 | 15.4 | 9.6 |
| Change in working capital | 3.7 | 0.4 | 3.3 |
| Cashflow from operations | 28.7 | 15.8 | 12.9 |
| Cashflow from investing activities | -2.7 | -1.8 | -0.9 |
| Cashflow from financing activities | -14.9 | -1.0 | -13.9 |
| Cashflow total | 11.1 | 13.0 | -1.9 |
| Liquidity | 37.4 | 45.9 |
The January−September 2021 cashflow from operations increased by SEK 12.9 million, compared to the same period last year, primarily related to the SEK 11.4 million increase in operating result. Total investments amounted to SEK 2.7 million (SEK 1.8 million). Cashflow from financing activities decreased by SEK 13.9 million, primarily due to the first dividend payment 2021 in the amount of SEK 14.2 million (SEK 0.0 million). Total cashflow amounted to SEK 11.1 million (SEK 13.0 million). Liquidity on 30 September 2021 was SEK 37.4 million (SEK 45.9 million). SinterCast has no loans.
Tax income for the January−September 2021 period amounted to SEK 3.9 million (SEK 0.0 million), comprised of SEK 4.0 million due the reassessed deferred tax calculation and the payment of SEK 0.1 million of income tax. The estimated future taxable profit and deferred tax asset calculation is reassessed every quarter. As of 30 September 2021, SEK 233.5 million (SEK 214.1 million) of the SinterCast total carried-forward tax losses are the basis of the updated calculation, resulting in SEK 48.1 million (SEK 44.1 million) being capitalised as a deferred tax asset. The deferred tax asset calculation is based on historical eight-year average currency rates.
Uncertainty factors for SinterCast include the timing of OEM decisions for new CGI engines and other components, adherence to start-of-production dates and ramp projections, the global economy for new vehicle sales, technology trends and emissions legislation, and the individual sales success of vehicles equipped with SinterCast-CGI components.
Covid-19 – and related material and labour shortages – remain the dominant near-term risk factor for the global foundry and automotive industries. While it is prudent to expect that series production may be influenced well into 2022 and perhaps beyond, SinterCast remains confident in the long-term growth of CGI. Other factors that may
influence the market risk for SinterCast and its end-user industries include the current global political uncertainty, the renegotiation of international tariffs and free-trade agreements on vehicle sales, climate change legislation and the associated growth of alternative powertrain technologies, and the overall demand for goods transportation.
No significant risk of material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities has been identified at the balance sheet date and no costs have been taken to the profit and loss due to Covid-19.
For additional risk and uncertainty factor information, see Note 26 on pages 65–70 in the SinterCast Annual Report 2020.

To the Board of Directors of SinterCast AB (publ.)
Corp. id. 556233-6494
We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of SinterCast AB (publ.) as of 30 September 2021 and the nine-month period then ended. The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and other generally accepted auditing practices and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, 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.
