Sales

Sales increased during the quarter to SEK 187.7 (151.2) million and during the first three quarters of the year to SEK 508.4 (451.4) million. In local currencies this was an increase of 27 and 13 per cent respectively.

Profit

Operating profit in the quarter was SEK 23.1 (–4.1) million and in the first three quarters of the year SEK 36.2 (–30.8) million. Last year profit was reduced by restructuring costs of SEK 8.5 million. Excluding these, the quarterly profit improved by SEK 18.7 million. The improvement is attributable to Scandpower and Waste Management Technology.

Operating profit for the year to date is SEK 36.2 (–30.8) million. This year's profit was reduced by effects of the corona pandemic of SEK 8 million and last year by restructuring costs of SEK 15 million. Excluding these items, profit improved by SEK 60 million. The improvement is attributable to Germany, Scandpower and Waste Management Technology.

The operating margin for the quarter, excluding effects in Germany of the corona pandemic and last year's restructuring costs in Waste Management Technology, improved to 12.3 (2.9) per cent and for the year's first three quarters to 8.7 (–3.5) per cent.

Net financial income for the quarter was SEK –1.3 (–0.2) million and SEK –2.6 (–6.0) million for the period. Profit/loss after tax was SEK 18.7 (–5.8) million for the quarter and SEK 26.4 (–39.7) million for the year to date.

Cash flow and financing

The free cash flow amounted to SEK –9.9 (1.9) million for the quarter and for the year to date SEK 25.2 (–46.0) million. The negative cash flow in the quarter was mainly due to increased trade receivables as a result of increased sales. The Group's cash and cash equivalents at the end of the quarter amounted to SEK 70.0 (36.9) million and the unutilized portion of the overdraft facility was SEK 16.3 (27.5) million.

Fuel and Materials Technology

Sales increased in the third quarter to SEK 44.7 (40.3) million and for the first three quarters of the year to SEK 153.0 (134.9) million. In local currencies this was an increase of 12 and 13 per cent respectively. During the period two large contracts were signed with Chinese and South Korean customers totaling approximately SEK 180 million for delivery in 2020–2023.

Operating profit for the quarter amounted to SEK 2.9 (3.1) million and for the year to date SEK 18.4 (18.3) million. The operating margin for the quarter was 6.5 (7.7) per cent and for the year's three first quarters was 12.0 (13.6) per cent.

Waste Management Technology

Sales decreased during the quarter to SEK 11.5 (12.3) million and during the first three quarters of the year to SEK 37.5 (42.1) million. In local currencies this was a decrease of 2 per cent for the quarter and 11 per cent for the three first quarters. The reduced sales are due to the winding up of unprofitable operations last year.

The operating profit in the quarter improved to SEK 2.2 (–13.2) million and for the first three quarters of the year to SEK 3.0 (–29.8) million.

Restructuring costs of SEK 8.5 million were charged to the third quarter last year and SEK 14 million in the first three quarters of last year.

Excluding these restructuring costs last year, the operating margin in the quarter was 19.1 (–38.2) per cent and in the three first quarters 8.0 (–37.5) per cent.

Scandpower

Sales increased during the quarter to SEK 41.2 (19.6) million and during the first three quarters of the year to SEK 91.7 (68.9) million. In local currencies this was an increase of 116 and 33 per cent respectively. Demand for Scandpower's products and engineering services continues to be good but varies substantially over time. During the quarter a few large orders were received in the American market. Interest from China continues to be great.

Operating profit for the quarter improved to SEK 11.1 (–1.7) million and for the first three quarters to SEK 12.8 (–4.2) million. The operating margin improved to 26.9 (–8.7) per cent and 14.0 (–6.1) per cent respectively.

Germany

Sales increased during the quarter to SEK 87.5 (78.0) million and during the first three quarters of the year to SEK 216.8 (201.3) million. In local currencies this was an increase of 15 and 8 per cent respectively. The customer activity level has been high and capacity utilization good.

Operating profit in the quarter was SEK 8.3 (8.6) million and in the first three quarters of the year SEK 10.1 (–5.6) million. The improved performance during the year is mainly due to renegotiated customer contracts, a more favorable sales mix and improved capacity utilization at the beginning of the year. The corona pandemic has not entailed any negative consequences in the quarter, but in the year to date the negative effect is SEK 8 million. The operating margin in the quarter decreased to 9.5 (11.0) per cent but excluding the effects of the corona pandemic it improved to 8.3 (–2.8) per cent in the year's three first quarters.

Investments

Investments amounted to SEK 5.9 (5.9) million during the quarter but decreased to SEK 15.5 (23.3) million in the first three quarters of the year. The year's investments are mainly related to Fuel and Materials Technology.

Financial position

Net interest-bearing debt has decreased to SEK 60.7 million (84.6). The net debt/equity ratio at the close of the quarter was 18.7 (28.2) per cent.

Personnel

The average number of employees decreased to 517 (564). The decrease is primarily attributable to the German and English operations.

Parent company

Operations in the parent company consist of coordination of the Group. Sales during the quarter were SEK 3.7 (3.8) million and during the first three quarters of the year SEK 10.5 (10.3) million. Operating profit in the quarter was SEK –1.4 (–2.1) million and in the first three quarters of the year SEK –7.2 (–9.5) million.

Loss after financial items in the quarter was SEK –2.6 (–28.1) million and during the year to date SEK –6.2 (–28.8) million. Net financial income for the quarter includes revaluation of intra-group loans by SEK –2.2 (5.6) million and SEK –2.2 (12.9) million for the three first quarters. Cash and cash equivalents including current investments amounted to SEK 0.0 (0.0) million and interest-bearing liabilities to SEK 130.7 (121.5) million.

Risks and uncertainties

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 relating to the corona pandemic have been added.

Effects of the corona pandemic

Profit in the third quarter was not affected by the corona pandemic, but altogether during the year the Group's profit was negatively affected by SEK 8 million. There are continued risks related to the corona pandemic for the rest of the year. Customers may decide to postpone some business and new temporary staff cuts may be necessary at some facilities in Germany and our facilities in Studsvik. The Executive Group Management is following developments and is prepared to take measures as necessary to reduce the negative effects on operations. The company acts in compliance with decisions and recommendations issued by governments and authorities in the respective markets, with the health and safety of employees as its highest priority.

Guarantees for future waste management costs

There is still no notification concerning the appeal to the Land and Environment Courts.

Accounting policies

Studsvik applies the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) approved by the EU. This interim report was prepared for the Group in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. For the parent company, the Swedish Financial Reporting Board recommendation RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities and the Annual Accounts Act are applied. The accounting policies applied are in line with what is stated in the Annual Report for 2019, with the exception of new standards and revisions of standards and interpretations to be applied to the financial year starting on January 1, 2020 and that were not already applied when preparing the 2019 Annual Report.

Auditor's report

Studsvik AB corp. reg. no. 556501-0997

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Studsvik AB as of 30 September 2020 and the nine-month period then ended. The board of directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Report 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 is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do 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.

Conclusion

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, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Group, and with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Parent Company.
