THE GROUP

The operating margin in the quarter was 8.6 (5.7) per cent and 7.0 (4.1) per cent in the first half year. The improved operating profit is mainly due to a higher utilization rate and improved commercial terms in Decommissioning and Radiation Protection Services.

BUSINESS AREAS
DECOMMISSIONING AND RADIATION PROTECTION SERVICES
Sales in the second quarter were SEK 96.0 (69.8) million and for the first half year SEK 164.8 (129.3) million, which in local currencies meant an increase of 45 and 34 per cent respectively.

Demand continues to be strong on the German and Swiss market where revisions at nuclear power plants are ongoing. The improved performance is mainly due to a higher utilization rate in all areas of operation as well as improved commercial terms. Ahead of the closure of the last reactors in operation in Germany in 2022, adaptation of operations is under way to meet increased demand in the area of decommissioning.
During the quarter agreements in decommissioning strategic to Studsvik were signed worth SEK 135 million. The operations will be carried out over a three-year period.
FUEL AND MATERIALS TECHNOLOGY
Sales in the second quarter increased to SEK 73.2 (61.2) million and in the first half year to SEK 128.5 (108.3) million. In local currencies this was an increase of 20 and 19 per cent respectively. The growth is mainly attributable to increased capacity utilization in the hot-cell facility. A number of investments are in progress to increase capacity in the facility. During the first half year about 20 new recruitments have been made in project management, design and operators. Investments in personnel and facilities are being made to meet increasing demand, mainly from Asia and Russia.
The operating profit for the quarter amounted to SEK 13.3 (12.3) million and SEK 15.9 (15.5) million for the half year. The operating margin for the quarter was 18.2 (20.1) per cent and 12.4 (14.3) per cent for the half year.

The annual revenues for maintenance, support and consultancy services, which during the quarter amounted to SEK 17.2 (16.9) million, are stable and evenly distributed over the year, while revenues from new sales of licenses vary considerably between quarters.
The operating profit deteriorated in the quarter to SEK –4.2 (–1.7) million and to SEK –2.0 (1.7) million for the half year. The operating margin decreased to –21.2 (–8.2) and –4.4 (3,4) per cent respectively.
New markets, including Eastern Europe and the Middle East, continue to be addressed. Scandpower is participating in a tendering procedure for delivery of software to a nuclear power plant in Ukraine.
Scandpower collaborates with several reactor suppliers in developing the concept for Small Modular Reactors (SMR). This is a long-term initiative where commercialization lies a number of years into the future.
WASTE MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY
Sales in the second quarter decreased to SEK 8.5 (13.6) million and in the first half year to SEK 16.5 (26.0) million. As previously communicated, the agreement with UK Nuclear Waste Management (LLWR) expires at the end of June.

The operating profit for the quarter amounted to SEK 0.1 (2.7) million and SEK –1.5 (0.8) million for the half year.
