* Refers to total operations.
There is a new organization from January 1, 2014. The report presents operations in accordance with that.
Unless otherwise stated the information in text and figures refers to operations excluding the USA operations sold.
Sales
Sales in the second quarter were SEK 224.8 (266.5) million. In local currencies the sales decrease was 22 per cent for the quarter and 19 per cent for the first half year. The decrease in sales is mainly due to the impact of the major Berkeley Boiler order on income in 2013 and a decrease in software sales. Sales for the first half year amounted to SEK 444.5 (517.4) million.
Profit
Operating profit for the second quarter amounted to SEK 0.1 (13.1) million and SEK 5.4 (20.4) million for the first half year. Items affecting comparability impacted the second quarter earnings by SEK –1.2 (11.2) million and the first half year earnings by 0.2 (11.2) million. Adjusted for these, the operating margin for the second quarter was 0.1 (0.7) per cent and 1.2 (1.8) per cent for the first half year.
Net financial income for the second quarter was SEK –4.1 (–9.5) million and SEK –10.7 (–14.4) million for the first half year. The Group's tax for the second quarter was SEK –1.5 (–1.4) million and SEK 1.4 (–3.9) million for the first half year. Profit/loss after tax for the second quarter was SEK –5.5 (2.2) million and SEK –3.9 (2.1) million for the first half year.
Waste Treatment
In the second quarter sales decreased by 26.1 per cent to SEK 68.4 (92.5) million. In local currencies the decrease was 32 per cent for the quarter and the first half year. Sales were unusually high in 2013 due to the large Berkeley project. Sales for this year also included SEK 11.2 million for the cancelled Bruce Power order received by Studsvik in the second quarter of 2013. Sales for the first half year amounted to SEK 135.2 (185.4) million.
Operating profit in the second quarter decreased to SEK 2.0 (20.6) million and SEK 11.2 (27.8) million for the first half year. Items affecting comparability impacted earnings for the first half year by SEK 0.0 (11.2) million. Adjusted for these, the operating margin for the first half year was 8.3 (9.5) per cent. Within the business area the Swedish operations continue to report a good margin, while the English operations are burdened by continued production disruptions and low prices for the material processed in the first half year.
The order book for metal treatment is sound, while the order book for incineration is impacted negatively by reduced volumes from Germany.
Consultancy Services
In the second quarter sales decreased by 12.2 per cent to SEK 96.8 (110.3) million. In local currencies the decrease was 18 per cent for the quarter and 12 per cent for the first half year. Sales for the first half year amounted to SEK 192.3 (204.7) million. Operating profit for the second quarter amounted to SEK 3.0 (2.8) million and SEK 12.1 (3.9) million for the first half year. Items affecting comparability impacted earnings for the first half year by SEK 3.6 (0.0) million. Adjusted for these, the operating margin for the first half year was 4.4 (1.9) per cent.
The margin was improved by increasing profit shares from UK Nuclear Waste Management, which amounted to SEK 2.8 (3.5) million during the quarter and SEK 7.6 (4.5) million during the year to date. Projects to increase the billed time ratio are in progress in the business area.
Demand for maintenance services in Germany continues to be weak, while the market for engineering services is stable. The work of further developing the USA-based consulting operations is in progress.
Fuel and Materials Technology
In the second quarter sales decreased by 13.7 per cent to SEK 51.1 (59.2) million. In local currencies the decrease was 14 per cent for the quarter and 11 per cent for the first half year. Sales for the first half year amounted to SEK 102.8 (115.6) million. The decrease is related to the sale of software, where continued budget restrictions among customers in the energy sector in Europe and the USA have meant deferred deliveries from Scandpower.
Operating profit for the second quarter amounted to SEK 1.4 (–2.7) million and SEK 0.6 (2.0) million for the first half year. The operating margin was 0.6 (1.8) per cent for the first half year.
In Materials Technology sales are on a level with the previous year. The negative trend of previous years has stopped and the operations now report a positive operating margin, driven by both improved gross margin and reduced overhead expenses. Projects for further cost savings are in progress in the business area.
Investments
The Group's investments in the second quarter were SEK 5.5 (6.6) million and in the first half year SEK 9.9 (11.4) million.
Cash flow
Cash flow from operating activities before working capital changes in the second quarter was SEK –10.4 (13.7) million and SEK –12.9 (9.9) million for the first half year. Working capital increased in the second quarter by SEK 10.7 (–11.3) million and in the first half year by SEK 22.2 (12.6) million partly due to a decrease in the proportion of business involving advance payment. Cash flow after investments in the second quarter was SEK –26.6 (18.5) million and in the first half year SEK –45.0 (–14.1) million. The sale of the American waste management operations gave an additional positive cash flow of SEK 82.9 million in the first quarter of 2014.
Financial position and liquidity
Cash and cash equivalents, including current investments, amounted to SEK 101.7 (230.7) million. Interest-bearing liabilities at the end of the quarter were SEK 207.4 (366.1) million. During the quarter SEK 60 million of a loan to Swedbank was amortized. Net interestbearing debt was SEK 105.8 (134.7) million, which means that the net debt/equity ratio was 38.3 (28.8) per cent. At the close of 2013 the net debt/equity ratio was 54.4 per cent.
Personnel
The average number of employees in the first half year was 910 (1,000). The decrease is mainly attributable to the Consulting Services business area.
Transactions with related parties
During the quarter a dividend of SEK 5.1 million was received from UK Nuclear Waste Management Ltd.
Parent company
Parent company operations comprise the co-ordination of tasks for the Group and assets mainly consist of shares in subsidiaries. Parent company sales in the second quarter amounted to SEK 2.9 (3.3) million and in the first half year to 6.4 (6.5) million. The operating profit for the second quarter amounted to SEK –9.9 (–7.3) million and SEK –21.9 (–14.8) million for the first half year. Earnings were reduced by SEK 2.9 million, relating to the organizational change to business areas implemented in the first quarter. Items affecting comparability impacted earnings for the second quarter by SEK –0.4 (0.0) million and earnings for the first half year by SEK –3.0 (0.0) million. Loss after financial items in the second quarter was SEK –11.1 (–13.8) million and SEK –26.4 (–22.1) million for the first half year.
Cash and cash equivalents, including current investments, amounted to SEK 31.7 (145.2) million and interest-bearing debt to SEK 200.0 (269.7) million.
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".
The interim report provides a fair review of the Group's and the Parent Company's operations, financial position and performance and describes significant risks and uncertainties faced by the Parent Company and the companies that are part of the Group.

Report of the auditors concerning review of condensed interim financial information (interim report) prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and Chapter 9 of the Annual Accounts Act
Introduction
We have performed a review of the interim report for the Studsvik AB group for the period January 1 to June 30, 2014. The Board of Directors and the President are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim financial report in accordance with IAS 34, IFRS and the Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this financial report based on our review.
Emphasis and scope of the review
We conducted our 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 review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review has a different focus and is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and other generally accepted auditing standards. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion that is expressed on the basis of a review does not give the same level of assurance as a conclusion based on an audit.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim report does not, in all material respects, accord with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act for the Group and, for the parent company, with the Annual Accounts Act.
