Sales
Sales in the third quarter increased to SEK 225.1 (216.9) million. During the year to date, however, sales have decreased to SEK 661.8 (734.3) million. In local currencies the decrease was 1.1 per cent for the quarter and 14.8 per cent for January–September. Sales were unusually high in 2013 due to the large Berkeley project. In the third quarter sales of software reached a normal level.
Profit
Operating profit for the third quarter amounted to SEK 12.9 (5.7) million and SEK 18.3 (26.1) million for January–September. Items affecting comparability impacted the third quarter earnings by SEK –7.5 (–4.0) million and January–September earnings by SEK –7.3 (–4.2) million. Adjusted for these, the operating margin for the third quarter was 9.1 (4.5) per cent and 3.9 (4.1) per cent for January–September.
Net financial income for the third quarter was SEK –4.9 (–0.3) million and SEK –15.6 (–14.7) million for January–September. Profit/ loss after tax for the third quarter was SEK 3.6 (2.6) million and SEK –0.3 (4.7) million for January–September.
Waste Treatment
In the third quarter sales decreased to SEK 53.4 (59.3) million and for January–September to SEK 180.8 (244.6) million. In local currencies the decrease was 14.0 per cent for the quarter and 31.6 per cent for January–September. Sales were unusually high in 2013 due to the large Berkeley project. Sales for the second quarter 2013 also included SEK 11.2 million for the cancelled Bruce Power order.
Operating profit in the third quarter decreased to SEK 1.9 (6.5) million and SEK 13.1 (34.2) million for January–September. The operating margin in the third quarter was 3.6 (11.0) per cent and for January–September 7.2 (14.0) per cent. The rate of output in the English operations has improved successively and price increases have been implemented.
The order book for processing large metal components has decreased, while the order book for incineration has increased.
Consultancy Services
In the third quarter sales increased to SEK 116.8 (104.9) million. Sales for January–September amounted to SEK 309.1 (309.7) million.

Operating profit for the third quarter amounted to SEK 18.9 (2.5) million and SEK 31.9 (6.4) million for January–September. Items affecting comparability in the third quarter amounted to SEK 0.3 (–4.0) million and SEK 4.1 (–4.2) million in January–September. Items affecting comparability this year are positive as restructuring in 2013 in Germany was carried out at a lower cost than expected. Adjusted for these, the operating margin for the third quarter was 15.9 (6.2) per cent and 9.0 (3.4) per cent for January–September.
A contract was signed during the quarter for license rights and consultant support to erect a THOR facility, which had a positive effect on earnings for the quarter.
Demand for maintenance services in Germany continues to be weak, while the market for engineering services is stable.
Fuel and Materials Technology
In the third quarter sales increased to SEK 49.6 (47.0) million. Sales for January–September decreased to SEK 152.4 (162.6) million. In local currencies the increase was 2.7 per cent for the quarter while sales decreased by 7.3 per cent for January–September. Sales of software have improved to a normal level and demand for services in materials technology continues to be good.
Operating profit for the third quarter was SEK 4.6 (2.9) million and for January–September to SEK 5.2 (4.9) million. Items affecting comparability in the third quarter amounted to SEK –0.4 (–) million and SEK –0.4 (–) million in January–September.

Cash flow
Working capital increased in the third quarter by SEK 40.6 (59.1) million and in January–September by SEK 62.8 (71.7) million mainly due to a decrease in the proportion of business involving advance payment. Cash flow from operating activities in the third quarter was therefore SEK –33.3 (–43.6) million and in January–September SEK –68.4 (–46.3) million. Cash flow after investments in the third quarter was SEK –42.9 (–47.3) million and in January–September SEK –87.9 (–61.4) million.

Financial position and liquidity
After amortization of liabilities in the second quarter cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 75.2 (192.2) million. Interest-bearing liabilities at the end of the quarter were SEK 223.1 (364.3) million. Net interest-bearing debt was SEK 147.9 (171.9) million, which means that the net debt/equity ratio was 52.3 (36.9) per cent. At the close of 2013 the net debt/equity ratio was 54.4 per cent.
Personnel
The average number of employees at the end of September was 907 (1,000). The decrease is mainly attributable to the Consulting Services business area.

Risks and uncertainties
Studsvik operates in an international, competitive market and is thereby exposed to both business and financial risks and uncertainties.
The business uncertainties include the fact that Studsvik and Studsvik's customers handle radioactive material and waste, which requires legal or regulatory licensing. Licensing is required for production facilities, but also for individual activities, such as transport and transfer of material. This means that the operations of Studsvik and Studsvik's customers are exposed to delays in these licensing processes, or the withdrawal of licenses, which may result in shifts in delivery and production plans.
In all countries storage and final disposal of nuclear waste are subject to a strict regulatory framework, which for example stipulates criteria that the waste must meet in physical and chemical terms when it is sent for final disposal. Changes in this regulatory framework could mean that the business competitiveness of some of Studsvik's services would be changed.
Issues concerning nuclear technology may be subject to various expressions of opinion and debate. In such a context it cannot be ruled out that opinion may emerge on matters that directly or indirectly alter Studsvik's scope of business action.
The financial risks and uncertainties mainly refer to fluctuations in exchange rates and interest rates.
An overall analysis of the Group's risks and how they are dealt with is given in the Annual Report, which is available on the company's website. Apart from these risks, no further significant risks are estimated to have arisen.
Outlook
The need for electricity is increasing globally. New nuclear power capacity is being planned and built in many countries, in parallel with the modernization and output increase of nuclear power plants in several of the countries where Studsvik operates. The German decision to phase out nuclear power by 2022 has reduced demand for service and maintenance. Studsvik has adapted its organization to this, but the new market situation may require further adjustment. The German nuclear power reactors already taken out of operation as well as those to be taken out of operation by 2022 will ultimately be subject to decommissioning. When this process will start is as yet not clear. Decommissioning and demolition of nuclear facilities in other markets are expected to expand in the long term. Studsvik has a strong product portfolio for decommissioning and an established market position.
Accounting policies
Studsvik AB applies International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union. Material accounting policies and valuation principles are in accordance with those of the annual accounts for the financial year ended December 31, 2013. The new and revised standards and interpretations; IFRS 10 "Consolidated financial statements", IFRS 11 "Joint arrangements", IFRIC 21 "Levies" and IAS 37 "Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets", applicable from January 1, 2014, have not had any material effects on Studsvik's financial statements. This interim report was prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act. The interim report for the parent company was prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board recommendation RFR 2 "Accounting for legal entities".
