Sales rose by nearly 9 percent, and organic growth in the third quarter amounted to 4 percent. This, despite two weak months in the quarter. In both December and January, holiday periods were unusually long, with few working days in most of our markets. It is gratifying to be able to deliver not only growth but also a reasonably strong operating profit. Proof, indeed, that our strengths and our strategy are effective when times get tough.
In the quarter, we noted further good growth in Eastern Europe, led by Russia and the Baltic States. Good growth was also recorded in the Other markets region, with a particularly positive trend in India, Malaysia and the Middle East.
Change Air, Canada, continues to develop satisfactorily, but is now in a period of slower demand caused by seasonal factors. Our Russian company continues to grow strongly, even though January is always a weak month in Russia because of the long Christmas and New Year celebrations there. Our Turkish subsidiary Systemair-HSK was merged with the sales company we formerly operated in Turkey. We are also engaged in a major relocation of production facilities in Turkey, which has resulted in lower volumes in recent months.
The initial stages of operations at our new production facility in India are under way. Production of air handling units has started and the first deliveries have been made. The production of air distribution products and fans will be relocated there in the immediate future. Construction of offices and a development centre are still in progress. The new development centre in Germany is expected to be completed in May. New sheet metal working machinery is now being installed in our new 12,000 sqm Turkish production plant.
We have also carried out investments and modifications at our Spanish production facility. As a result we can produce large Eurovent-certified modular air handling units for the Iberia region.
After the end of the period, we acquired Carrier Holland Heating, a market-leading producer of air handling units in the Netherlands. The acquisition enables us to further strengthen our position in Europe in this product area.
We will continue to invest in production equipment, product development, marketing and acquisitions. Proof of the value of the investments made is that we are capable of not only organic growth but also reasonably satisfactory operating profit, even in tough times. We are well equipped to meet the upturn in the economy when it comes about.
Gerald Engström President and CEO
Group sales for the third quarter of 2012/13 totalled SEK 1,120.6 million (1,030.6), up 8.7 percent from the same period in the preceding year. Organic growth was 4.0 percent.
Growth in acquired operations totalled 7.0 percent, or SEK 72.0 million. During the quarter, foreign exchange effects reduced sales by 2.3 percent. This indicates that, at unchanged exchange rates, sales increased by 11.0 percent in the quarter.
Net sales for the interim report period of May-January 2012/13 totalled SEK 3,427.3 (2,962.0), 15.7 percent higher than in the same period in the preceding year. Organic growth was 5.4 percent.
Growth in acquired operations was 13.1 percent, while foreign exchange effects reduced sales by 2.7 percent during the period.
During the third quarter, sales in the Nordic region fell by 5 percent from the same period in the preceding year. All the Nordic countries other than Finland lost some ground during the quarter. Foreign exchange effects during the quarter were marginal.
Sales in the Western Europe market during the quarter were on a par with sales in the same period in the preceding year. Adjusted for the effects of foreign exchange and acquisitions, sales decreased by 3 percent compared with last year. Markets that performed strongly in the region include Switzerland, France and Austria.
Sales in Eastern Europe and the CIS increased 14 percent during the quarter. Organic growth for the region amounted to 14 percent, indicating that acquisitions and foreign exchange effects cancel each other out. Russia and Estonia in particular continue to show solid growth.

Sales in the North American market grew 18 percent during the quarter compared with the same period in the preceding year. The increase is attributable partly to the acquisition of Change Air, Canada. Adjusted for foreign exchange effects, sales increased 8 percent.
Sales in Other markets grew 82 percent compared with the same period in the preceding year, partly as a result of the acquisitions in Turkey and India. Adjusted for foreign exchange effects and acquisitions, sales increased 36 percent.
The gross profit for the third quarter amounted to SEK 415.0 million (387.0), an increase of 7.2 percent over the same period in the preceding year. The gross margin fell to 37.0 percent (37.5) as a result mainly of acquisitions of companies with lower margins, but also changes in the product mix.
Operating profit for the third quarter totalled SEK 89.8 million (97.3), down 7.7 percent from the same period in the preceding year. The company recorded an operating margin of 8.0 percent (9.4).
Selling and administration expenses for the quarter totalled SEK 322.7 million (299.5), an increase of SEK 23.2 million. Selling and administration expenses at acquired companies accounted for SEK 21.5 million (22.8) of the increase for the quarter.
Selling expenses were charged with SEK 0.2 million (2.4) for anticipated bad debts and impairment losses on trade receivables. During the quarter, costs related to acquisitions totalled SEK 0.6 million (1.7).
Net financial items ended the third quarter at SEK -11.1 million (-1.5). The effects of foreign exchange on long-term receivables, loans and bank balances totalled SEK -3.1 million net (3.7). Interest expense for the quarter amounted to SEK -8.1 million (-5.9), as a result of increased borrowing.
Estimated tax for the quarter totalled SEK -23.4 million (-25.8) corresponding to an effective tax rate of 29.7 percent (26.9) based on profit after net financial items.
On 20 August 2012, Systemair acquired Ratos' holding of shares in Lindab. The holding represented 11.2 percent of the share capital and comprised 8,849,157 shares. At the same time, Systemair acquired a further 300,000 shares in the market and consequently is one of the largest shareholders in Lindab, with in all 11.6 percent of the share capital.
In May 2012, Systemair signed an agreement to acquire 70 percent of the shares in Turkish company HSK. In December 2012, Systemair acquired a further 20 percent of the shares in the company. HSK is Turkey's leading manufacturer of air handling units, with sales of
SEK 160 million in 2011. Following the acquisition, a new industrial property measuring just over 12,000 m2 was leased. The facility will be occupied by two former production facilities and will benefit from major investments in modern sheet metal forming equipment. The investments will give us the most modern production facility for air handling units in the region. We also see great potential for higher sales in Turkey and neighboring countries such as Azerbaijan, Georgia, Turkmenistan, Dubai and Iraq, plus market synergies with our Italian refrigeration equipment factory. After acquisition, the name of the company was changed to Systemair HSK. HSK has been consolidated into Systemair since the beginning of August 2012.
In June, Systemair acquired Change Air, Canada. The company is one of North America's leading manufacturers of air handling units for classrooms. In 2011, Change Air had sales equivalent to SEK 84 million and an operating profit of SEK 11.9 million. The company, which has 86 employees, has its headquarters and a production facility in Ontario, Canada. The acquisition has provided Systemair with access to 59 sales agents in 71 cities, and a total of approximately 300 sales engineers in North America. The latter cover 42 states in the USA and six provinces in Canada.
If Change Air and HSK had been consolidated as of 1 May 2012, net sales for the period May 2012 through January 2013 would have totalled approximately SEK 3,475 million. Operating profit for that period would have been approximately SEK 323 million.
Note 1 in this report contains an acquisition analysis and an account of the effects of the acquisitions on the Group's cash and cash equivalents.
Investments for the quarter, excluding divestments, totalled SEK 29.7 million (122.3), including SEK 27.4 million (27.3) invested in new construction and machinery. No business acquisitions took place and no additional purchase payments were made during the quarter (93.3). Depreciation of non-current assets amounted to SEK 29.0 million (26.2).
The average number of employees in the Group was 3,309 (2,698). At the end of the period, Systemair had 3,430 employees (3,113), 317 more than one year
previous. New employees were recruited chiefly in Sweden (27), Germany (15) and Lithuania (8). Through acquisitions, 228 employees joined the Group, including 159 at Systemair HSK, Turkey, 61 at Change Air, Canada and 8 at Systemair Serbia.
Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital totalled SEK 92.8 million (107.1) for the quarter. Changes in working capital, mainly consisting of a decrease in accounts receivable, had a positive impact of SEK 31.8 million (29.9) on cash flow. Net cash flow from financing activities was SEK -110.1 million (42.8), as a result of the repayment of loans. At the end of the period, net indebtedness totalled SEK 1,166.2 million (802.0). The consolidated equity/assets ratio was 41.4 percent (45.3) at the end of the period.
In March, Systemair entered into an agreement with Carrier on the acquisition of Carrier Holland Heating, a producer of air handling units. Carrier Holland Heating is a market leader in air handling units in the Netherlands, with sales of EUR 32.5 million in 2012. The company, established in 1955, has production facilities and headquarters in Waalwijk and a total of approximately 140 employees. The company has been owned by Carrier since 1997. The agreement also stipulates continued deliveries of air handling units to the Carrier Group in Europe.
Systemair is exposed to operational and financial risks in its business. Operational risk is inherent in the international nature of the operations, tough competition and the sensitivity of the construction industry to the business cycle. The financial risks that Systemair has identified in its business are foreign exchange risk, borrowing and interest rate risk, credit and liquidity risk and loss carry-forwards. The material risks and uncertainty affecting Systemair are described in more detail in the Company's 2011/12 Annual Report. The financial risks changed to some extent during the interim report period via the acquisition of the shareholding in Lindab. The shares are accounted for as an available-forsale financial asset and recognised at fair value, with changes in value being recognised in other comprehensive income. The acquisition is financed via a bank loan, which, too, increases the interest rate risk.
Systemair's significant transactions with related parties concern ebmpapst AB and ebmpapst Mulfingen GmbH & Co. KG. Transactions with related parties are described in detail in Note 36 to the accounts in the Annual Report for the 2011/12 financial year. During the period, no change worthy of mention occurred in the scale of these transactions.
Parent Company sales for the quarter totalled SEK 231.4 million (239.4), while operating profit was SEK 3.9 million (9.4).
The average number of employees in the Parent Company was 412 (404).
The report for the fourth quarter and full year 2012/13 will be published at 8.00 a.m. on 11 June 2013.
The Company established operations in 1974 with a product concept, the circular duct fan, a design that considerably simplified the process of installation. We adopted the motto "the straight way", and this has been developed from a product concept into a business philosophy. Our product range has expanded strongly to span a broad range of fans, air handling units, products for air distribution, air curtains and heating products.
Operating from the core values of simplicity and reliability, our business concept is to develop, manufacture and market high-quality ventilation products. On the basis of our business concept and with our customers in focus, our aim is to be seen as a company to rely on, with the emphasis on delivery reliability, availability and quality.
Availability is an important parameter in terms of our competitiveness, and we ensure effective control of our flow of goods, with owned production units, centralised warehouse facilities and an efficient ERP system. With modern production plants and our own sales companies around the world, we reach out directly to our customers. The business model supports stability and development, and today we are a leading producer and supplier of ventilation products with our own production and sales companies.
The following strategies create major strengths and competitive advantages that help us to achieve our goals.
