Sales
Sales in the quarter decreased to SEK 160.3 (174.0) million and in the first half year to SEK 300.2 (371.4) million. In local currencies this was a decrease of 10 and 22 per cent respectively. The decrease is mainly due to the previous year's sales figure including a large software sale in Scandpower and a major stoppage in Fuel and Materials Technology in the final quarter of 2017 that delayed sales to the first quarter of 2018. In addition there will be continued challenges in consulting operations and in Germany.
Inquiries and activities in the market continue to be good and initiatives outside the traditional markets in the USA and Europe are continuing. However, long selling in processes create uncertainty about the timing of some contracts.
Profit
The operating profit for the second quarter decreased to SEK –8.1 (2.0) million and SEK –26.7 (24.2) million for the first half year. Adjusted for items affecting comparability of SEK –6.3 (–1.4) million for the quarter and SEK –6.3 (–1.4) for the half year, the operating margin for the second quarter decreased to –1.1 (2.0) per cent and for the first half year to –6.8 (6.9) per cent.
Net financial income for the second quarter was SEK –1.1 (–4.5) million and SEK –5.8 (–8.1) million for the first half year. The half year's net financial income includes origination fees for the new financing of SEK 1.5 million.
Profit after tax decreased to SEK –10.8 (–2.2) million for the second quarter and SEK –33.9 (10.5) million for the first half year.
Fuel and Materials Technology
Sales in the second quarter decreased to SEK 52.2 (53.2) million and in the first half year to SEK 94.6 (119.9) million. In local currencies this was a decrease of 3 and 22 per cent respectively. The decrease is mainly due to fewer transport services than in 2018, and to the stoppage in the Hot Cell facility in the fourth quarter of 2017 that delayed deliveries to the first quarter of 2018.
The operating profit improved in the second quarter to SEK 14.9 (7.4) million but deteriorated somewhat in the first half year to SEK 15.2 (17.7) million. The operating margin increased in the quarter to 28.5 (13.9) per cent and for the half year to 16.1 (14.8) per cent. The improvement in performance in the second quarter is mainly due to a reassessment of future restoration costs for the nuclear operations in the Studsvik area, which reduced the reserve for these costs by just over SEK 10 million. The first half year was adversely affected by delays in the work of completing the production line for medical isotopes, which impacted the ability to complete other projects.
Consultancy Services
Sales in the quarter decreased to SEK 13.5 (19.4) million and in the half year to SEK 29.8 (40.6) million. In local currencies this was a decrease of 32 and 29 per cent respectively. The reduced sales are due to weak demand in the United Kingdom and the fact that no sales of FBSR technology were possible yet this year.
The operating profit for the quarter deteriorated to SEK –11.1 (1.1) million and SEK –16.6 (1.1) million for the half year. Adjusted for items affecting comparability of SEK –5.5 (–1.4) million in the quarter, linked to termination of staff in the United Kingdom and the Middle East, the operating margin decreased to –41.5 (12.9) and –37.2 (6.2) per cent respectively.
Scandpower
Sales in the quarter increased somewhat to SEK 25.0 (23.8) million but decreased in the half year to SEK 49.3 (66.6) million. In local currencies this means unchanged sales for the
quarter and a decrease of 30 per cent in the first half year. The decrease is due to the order received in the previous year from TVEL for software licenses and related services amounting to SEK 38 million, SEK 25 million of which was recognized in the first quarter last year.
The operating profit for the quarter deteriorated to SEK –3.5 (–1.0) million and to SEK –2.5 (19.7) million for the half year. The operating margin decreased to –14.0 (–4.2) and –5.1 (29.6) per cent respectively. There is a continued high level of interest in Scandpower's new software and upgrades in the domestic market in the USA. Presence in China has been strengthened via establishment of a local company.
Germany
Sales in the quarter decreased to SEK 71.1 (77.4) million and in the first half year to SEK 123.3 (141.3) million. local currencies this was a decrease of 11 and 16 per cent respectively. The decrease is due to less high margin business and high sickness absence in the German operations. This is offset to some extent by improvements in Switzerland in the second quarter.
The operating profit deteriorated in the quarter to SEK –2.3 (–0.3) million and to SEK –14.2 (–5.1) million in the first half year. The operating margin decreased to –3,2 (–0.4) and –11,5 (–3.6) per cent respectively.
The cost savings activities implemented could not compensate for the negative sales growth, where several high margin business transactions were impacted, and adjustment of operations is continuing.
Investments
The investments increased somewhat to SEK 10.6 (6.2) million in the quarter and to SEK 17.4 (13.1) million in the half year. The year's investments are mainly related to the production line for medical isotopes.
Cash flow
Due to the poorer performance the free cash flow was SEK –14.9 (4.0) million in the quarter and SEK –47.9 (25.6) million in the half year. The Group's cash and cash equivalents at the end of the first half year amounted to SEK 27.6 million and the unutilized portion of the overdraft facility was SEK 30 million.
Financial position and liquidity
The interest-bearing net debt has increased to SEK 92.4 (71.6) million. The net debt/equity ratio at the close of the quarter was 31.2 (22.3) per cent.
Refinancing took place in February in connection with redemption of the bond loan of SEK 200 million and its replacement by bank financing of SEK 150 million.
Personnel
The average number of employees decreased to 579 (635). The decrease is primarily attributable to the German operations.
Related party transactions
During the second quarter a dividend of SEK 3.4 (2.0) million was received from UK Nuclear Waste Management Ltd.
Parent company
Operations in the parent company consist of coordination of the Group. Sales in the second quarter were SEK 3.3 (4.1) million and in the first half year SEK 6.5 (8.1) million. The operating profit was SEK –3.6 (–2.7) million in the quarter and –7.4 (–6.1) in the half year.
