CEO's comment
Comment regarding the interim report by Kimmo Alkio, President and CEO:

"We are pleased to start the year with healthy profitability and cash flow, while revenue development remained negative as we had anticipated. In light of the pandemic, we anticipate the business environment to normalize in the second half of the year. Several businesses ended the quarter with strong order intake – supporting our growth ambition for the second half of this year. Our software businesses delivered organic growth of 3% and we expect the positive trend in this business to continue. We also experienced attractive development in our international businesses. First-quarter profitability development continued to be favourable at the Group level – supported by integration-related synergy
realization. Profitability improvement was driven by a strong 20% margin in Industry Software and continued positive development in Digital Consulting with a margin of 15%. The Cloud & Infra business continues to undergo significant operational and technology partner-related transformation. To accelerate improvement in performance, further efficiency measures have been initiated.
In the first quarter, we announced significant contracts in IT modernization and multi-cloud services demonstrating our capabilities in cloud advisory and complex enterprise transformations. In line with market opportunities, we are making further targeted investments to support our growth plan. Investments are visible specifically in Financial Services Solutions, supported by a significant order backlog.
We are inspired by the high level of engagement continuing across our teams. Our culture journey continues and we have started gearing our thoughts to life after the pandemic, engaging our teams to co-create our future ways of working, combining remote and office work in a flexible and sustainable way. During the quarter, we had a high focus on personal development through the implementation of individual learning paths, as well as activating our learning communities. Curiosity and appetite for learning is a continuous necessity in our dynamic industry – for the benefit of our customers."
TietoEVRY's quarter in brief
Twofold development in growth
Revenue was organically1) down by 6%. While overall revenue declined, software businesses saw organic growth of 3% and International Operations2) growth of over 20%. As anticipated, contracts lost in Cloud & Infra prior to the merger resulted in negative revenue impact of 3.5% on Group revenue. The negative impact of Covid-19 was approximately 3%, mainly affecting consulting businesses. Industry Software and Digital Consulting ended the quarter with strong order intake. At the Group level, growth is anticipated to gain ground in the second half of the year.
Strong profitability
Adjusted operating profit improved from the previous year's level. Profitability improvement was driven by strong margins in Industry Software and Digital Consulting. Merger-related synergies of around EUR 20 million contributed to strong profitability while operating profit was affected by Cloud & Infra's performance.
Cloud & Infra transformation continues
The Cloud & Infra business continues to undergo operational and technology partner-related transformation. This aims at industry-leading automated multi-cloud services while continuing to streamline production environments for traditional infrastructure technologies. Due to contracts lost prior to the merger and accelerated shift to cloud environments, the company has initiated measures to reduce production capacity and headcount, including personnel consultations affecting up to 300 roles. These measures, coupled with continued transformation of prior IBM workloads to new automated environments, as well as growth in highermargin cloud services and add-on volumes are anticipated to contribute to profitability throughout 2021.
1) Adjusted for currency effects and impact from acquisitions and divestments. 2) International Operations includes digital consulting services for markets outside the Nordics.

Realizing the merger synergies
Based on advanced digital consulting practices at scale and strong multi-cloud capabilities coupled with a competitive software portfolio, TietoEVRY is well positioned to drive digitalization of Nordic enterprises and public sector. The company has built an integrated organization, made good progress in synergy realization and laid the foundation for future performance. Achievements include:
- New structure with common operations and processes in place
- Strengthened FinTech value proposition based on the capabilities from both companies laying a foundation for market share expansion
- Identification of growth potential from complementary customer base, digital consulting scale in the Nordics and accelerated cloud adoption
- Significant merger-related cost synergies achieved during 2020.
TietoEVRY anticipates that the total cost synergy target of EUR 100 million will be achieved by the end of 2022. The company achieved a run-rate of EUR 82 million in merger synergies by the end of the first quarter of 2021. In 2020, profit contribution of merger synergies was EUR 30 million. The company estimates that non-recurring integration costs will be EUR 26-36 million during 2021. The estimate for total integration costs is unchanged at EUR 110-120 million during 2020-2022.
Performance in 2021

Financial impact of the Covid-19 pandemic
Measures to secure the health and safety of employees and ensure continuity of critical services to customers, as well as measures to minimize the financial impact of the pandemic have been successful. Resilience is anticipated to vary by business due to different contractual structures:
- Digital consulting: primarily short-term contracts while relationships with customers are long – application services with long-term agreements represent approximately 40% of consulting revenue
- Product development services: short contracts within long-term commitments contributing to customers' core development roadmaps – stability due to TietoEVRY's role in customers' key development areas
- Infrastructure services: primarily long-term commitments of 3-5 years – fluctuations in demand in some services in the short term, e.g. increase in network capacity while some on-site installations are postponed
- Industry software and Financial Services Solutions: primarily long-term contractual periods of up to 5-7 years, with customer relationships lasting much longer.
More information on Covid-19's impact on the company is available at www.tietoevry.com/Investors.
Merger-related efficiencies
TietoEVRY achieved a run-rate of EUR 80 million in mergerrelated synergies by the end of 2020. Around EUR 30 million of this was visible in operating profit in 2020 and EUR 20 million in the first quarter of 2021. The company expects to achieve a run-rate of EUR 90-95 million by the end of 2021.
Adjusted items at a lower level in 2021
TietoEVRY estimates that it will book integration costs of EUR 26-36 million and costs of around EUR 21-26 million in other adjustment items (negative) in the full year. Additionally, TietoEVRY estimates that it will book a net amount of around EUR 70 million (positive) in adjustment items related to the divestment of the Oil&Gas software business.
Cloud & Infra performance
The Cloud & Infra business continues to undergo operational and technology partner-related transformation. This aims at industry-leading automated multi-cloud services while continuing to streamline production environments for traditional infrastructure technologies.

Adjusted operating margin was down to 4.0% (9.4).

Reportable segments are described in the tables section.

In March, Ellevio and TietoEVRY concluded a software management agreement regarding TietoEVRY's energy utilities products. The agreement worth SEK 25 million is a continuation to their co-operation – TietoEVRY has been working with Ellevio on engineering data regarding Ellevio's customers and invoicing since 2019.
Business transactions
On 15 February, TietoEVRY announced that it has reached an agreement with Aucerna, a Quorum Software affiliate, to sell its Oil & Gas software business. The divestment is part of the company's strategy to seek focus and scale. Through this transaction, the Oil & Gas software business will have greater global market reach and growth opportunities. TietoEVRY's Oil & Gas software business comprises hydrocarbon management, personnel and material logistics software and related services with installations in more than 50 countries.
Revenue of the businesses to be divested amounted to around EUR 50 million in 2020 and the number of employees is around 430.
Personnel
The number of full-time employees amounted to 23 724 (24 344) at the end of March. The number of full-time employees in the global delivery centres totalled 11 395 (11 551), or 48.0% (47.4) of all personnel.
The number of full-time employees was somewhat up from the year-end 2020 level of 23 632. The change includes redundancies of around 60 and net recruitments of around 150.
The agreement was reached at an enterprise value of EUR 155 million, implying an EV/Revenue multiple of approximately 3.2. The Oil & Gas software business is reported as part of the Industry Software segment in the financial statement. The company anticipates that the transaction, subject to the approval of the competition authorities, will be concluded before summer 2021.
The 12-month rolling employee turnover stood at 9.9% (12.2) at the end of March. Group-level salary inflation is expected to remain at around 2% on average in 2021. Furthermore, salary inflation is partly offset by price increases in some service areas, offshoring and management of the competence pyramid.
Shareholders' Meeting
TietoEVRY Corporation's Annual General Meeting held on 25 March approved the financial statements 2020 and discharged the company's officers from liability for the financial year 2020. The meeting also approved the Remuneration Report.
The Annual General Meeting decided on a total dividend of EUR 1.32 per share. The payment will be made in two instalments:

The dividend was paid beginning from 8 April.
- The second dividend instalment of EUR 0.66 per share shall be paid to shareholders who on the record date for the dividend payment on 27 September 2021 are recorded in the shareholders' registers.
The Board's current members Tomas Franzén, Salim Nathoo, Harri-Pekka Kaukonen, Timo Ahopelto, Rohan Haldea, Liselotte Hägertz Engstam, Katharina Mosheim, Niko Pakalén, Endre Rangnes and Leif Teksum were reelected to the Board, and Angela Mazza Teufer was elected as a new member. Tomas Franzén was elected as the Chairperson of the Board of Directors.

Shares
On 31 March, the number of shares totalled 118 425 771. In February, TietoEVRY purchased 140 000 own shares. Related to the company's share-based reward plans, a total of 143 391 shares held by TietoEVRY were transferred to the participants of the plan during the quarter.
At the end of the quarter, the number of shares in the company's or its subsidiaries' possession totalled 7 587, representing 0.01% of the total number of shares and voting rights. The number of outstanding shares, excluding the treasury shares, was 118 418 184.
Significant risks and uncertainties
Consolidated revenue and operating profit are sensitive to volatility in exchange rates, especially that of the Swedish Krona and Norwegian Krone. Sales in Sweden and Norway represent around two thirds of the Group's sales.
Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the current market outlook in TietoEVRY's main markets involves significant uncertainties. The pandemic may lead to an economic downturn while sensitivity to macroeconomic uncertainty varies by business. The company's portfolio comprises services based on multi-year agreements in infrastructure and application services as well as in industry-specific software businesses. The digital consulting business has shorter contractual periods and is likely to be more affected during times of economic uncertainty. TietoEVRY operates in multiple countries, balancing workforce availability. The company has already taken strict measures, including savings actions and temporary layoffs, to mitigate the potential financial impact of the pandemic and to secure the health and safety of employees and ensure critical services to customers.
The merger integration and related transformation of the company will continue to affect performance in the short term and may result in temporarily lower productivity.
New disruptive technologies, such as cloud computing, drive customer demand towards standardized and less labourintensive solutions where automation plays an important role. These changes may result in accelerated volume reductions in traditional infrastructure services and the need for restructuring.
The company's development is relatively sensitive to changes in the demand from large customers as TietoEVRY's top 10 customers currently account for around 19% of its revenue, with Product Development Services having the highest customer concentration in the company.
Typical risks faced by the IT service industry relate to partnerships with external vendors. A potential failure in deliveries by partners could lead to quality and financial consequences. Currently, transitions related to the redefined partnership with IBM are ongoing and a focus area for the company. Furthermore, typical risks include development and implementation of new technologies and software. In TietoEVRY's case implementations relate to both own software development, the scope in related project deliveries and integration of third-party software. Additional technology licence fees and failures to meet both the agreed quality and timeliness of deliveries could pose potential risks.
Risks related to malfunctions, cybersecurity breaches or malicious attacks could seriously affect TietoEVRY's ability to provide its services and have an adverse impact on the company's financials and reputation.
The new EU General Data Protection Regulation took effect in May 2018 and is anticipated to pose a risk for software and IT services companies, and thus also for TietoEVRY. The company continues to develop its GDPR practices across businesses and functions, and with its customers. In light of the overall regulatory development of GDPR, there continues to be uncertainty with regards to how the authorities will interpret the regulation and Schrems II judgment by the Court of Justice of the European Union – and impose fines in cases involving personal data breaches.
Companies around the world are facing new risks arising from tax audits and some countries may introduce new regulation. Additionally, changes in the tax authorities' interpretations could have unfavourable impacts on taxpayers.
Full-year outlook for 2021 unchanged
TietoEVRY expects its organic1) growth to be -1% to +2%2) (revenue in 2020: EUR 2 786.4 million). The company estimates its full-year adjusted operating margin (adjusted EBITA)3) to increase to 13–14% (12.7% in 2020).
2) Highly dependent on the development of the Covid-19 pandemic. Assumes that the business environment will return to normal as from the third quarter of 2021. 3) Adjusted EBITA is fully comparable with the previous definition of adjusted EBIT. According to both definitions, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, restructuring costs, capital gains/losses, impairment charges and other items affecting comparability are excluded – whereas amortization of other intangible assets is included.
Events after the period
On 29 April, Cloud & Infra initiated employee consultation processes with the aim of improving efficiency and adjusting capacity to demand. The measures are estimated to affect globally up to 300 roles in total, including up to 150 in Sweden and 150 in Norway. The consultation processes will be conducted according to the legislation and practices in each country and are expected to be concluded by the end of the third quarter of 2021.

Notes to the interim financial statements
This interim report is unaudited and it is prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the EU. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those used in the annual financial statements for the year ended on 31 December 2020. Changes to IFRSs which have been effective from 1 January 2021 have had no material impact on the Group's financial statements.
All presented figures in this interim report have been rounded and consequently, the sum of individual figures can deviate from the presented sum figure. Key figures have been calculated using exact figures.
Revenue and profitability of TietoEVRY are subject to seasonal variations. Usually, the third-quarter sales are affected by vacation period and the reversal of vacation accruals has a positive effect on profitability. Typically, the fourth-quarter sales and margins are positively affected by higher licence sales for TietoEVRY's industry-specific software.
Sale of Oil & Gas software business
On 15 February 2021, TietoEVRY announced that it has reached an agreement with Aucerna, a Quorum Software affiliate, to sell its Oil & Gas software business. The divestment is part of the company's strategy to seek focus and scale. Through this transaction, the Oil & Gas software business will have greater global market reach and growth opportunities. TietoEVRY's Oil & Gas software business comprises hydrocarbon management, personnel and material logistics software and related services with installations in more than 50 countries. Revenue of the businesses to be divested amounted to around EUR 50 million in 2020 and the number of employees is around 430. The agreement was reached at an enterprise value of EUR 155 million, implying an EV/ Revenue multiple of approximately 3.2. The Oil & Gas software business is reported as part of the Industry Software segment in the financial statements. The company anticipates that the transaction, subject to the approval of the competition authorities, will be concluded before summer 2021.
In the statement of financial position of this interim report, the assets and related liabilities are separately presented on lines "Assets held for sale" and "Liabilities attributable to assets held for sale", respectively. The assets include goodwill of EUR 71.4 million and mainly trade and other receivables. The liabilities of EUR 8.8 million consist mainly of trade and other payables. TietoEVRY estimates that it will book a net gain of around EUR 70 million related to the divestment of Oil&Gas software business.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed at the reporting date. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may differ from the estimates. The areas requiring the exercise and judgement where a different opinion could result in significant changes to reported results as well as the assumptions related to Covid-19 are the same as reported in the 2020 consolidated financial statements.
Events after the end of the reporting period
On 29 April, Cloud & Infra initiated employee consultation processes with the aim of improving efficiency and adjusting capacity to demand. The measures are estimated to affect globally up to 300 roles in total, including up to 150 in Sweden and 150 in Norway. The consultation processes will be conducted according to the legislation and practices in each country and are expected to be concluded by the end of the third quarter of 2021.

Derivatives are used for economic hedging purposes only.
Foreign exchange derivatives' fair values are calculated according to foreign exchange and interest rates on the closing date. All outstanding derivative contracts will expire within 12 months after the reporting date.
Fair value measurement of financial assets and liabilities
There have been no changes in fair value methodology and input levels: foreign exchange forward contracts are valued based on Level 2 inputs and Other financial assets at fair value through profit or loss' (EUR 0.6 million on 31 Mar 2021) fair value measurement is based on their initial value. The fair market value cannot be reliably estimated, due to lack of proper market for the assets.
Trade receivables sold under non-recourse factoring agreements (EUR 27.9 million on 31 Mar 2021) are classified as Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Group estimates that the carrying amount approximates the fair value due to their shortterm nature.

Alternative performance measures (APMs)
TietoEVRY presents certain financial measures, which, in accordance with the "Alternative Performance Measures" guidance issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority, are not accounting measures defined or specified in IFRS and are, therefore, considered alternative performance measures. TietoEVRY believes that alternative performance measures provide meaningful supplemental information to the financial measures presented in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS and increase the understanding of the profitability of TietoEVRY's operations. In addition, they are seen as useful indicators of the Group's financial position and ability to obtain funding. Alternative performance measures are not accounting measures defined or specified in IFRS and, therefore, they are considered non-IFRS measures, which should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute to the IFRS financial measures.
