Comments from the CEO

Our underlying growth continues with undiminished momentum despite facing a tougher comparison quarter from last year's Q2. We see strong momentum in the business across the board, including outside the US. At the same time, profitability continues to strengthen, driven by volume effects, gradually higher reimbursement levels in the insurance systems, and the fact that the pandemic no longer negatively impacts gross margin. We see a clear trend where growth is fastest in markets where we sell directly, boding well for the future. The acquisition of our German supplier Rehadapt has full potential to add profitable growth from day one. We remain optimistic about both growth and profitability going forward and are therefore investing in competencies, systems and tools to further increase scalability.

Sales growth, denominated in local currency, was well above our long-term target at 24 percent. Growth was robust across all product and user groups. US Medicare's increase in the reimbursement level for our products by more than 9 percent will gradually affect revenues in 2023. Our income statement now reflects almost half of these price adjustments. As before, we expect to see the full impact by the end of the second half of the year.

Gross margin increased by 4 percentage points to 68 percent. The main reasons were the normalization of component and freight costs, as well as progressively higher sales prices.

Clearly, the distinct break in the trend toward increased sales growth that we saw just over a year ago was not temporary in nature. Our own large-scale investments to educate prescribers and improve our products, along with constantly improving reimbursement systems in many countries, are producing clear results.

Our direct markets, including the recently added Irish and Danish markets, show the strongest growth. The main reason is that we have a much greater ability to effectively educate and support prescribers while gaining a deeper understanding of local requirements, processes and reimbursement systems. Educating the market about the potential of our products is key and critical for us to deliver on our major growth and profitability opportunities.

Our customer offering is highly competitive, and it is gratifying that our recently launched software titles have drawn so much attention. We can see rapid growth in their use. TD Browse, a browser specifically designed for users who control their device with eye movements, has also been nominated for several prominent awards. We continue to invest in development to gradually strengthen our product offering. New hardware, TD I-13 and TD I-16, was launched during the quarter, thereby upgrading our leading eye-tracking communication aids in the premium segment to the next level.

The acquisition of our long-standing German supply partner Rehadapt, which we agreed on at the end of June, naturally complements our offering while also strengthening our position in Germany. The company offers medically certified "mounts," a product that either we or our distributors combine with assistive communication devices when fixed, for example, to the user's bed or wheelchair. The acquisition allows us to create solutions that make it easier for our users to access and use their assistive technology for communication. Rehadapt will be an independent subsidiary within the Group. We expect to close the deal in the third quarter, welcoming around 50 new colleagues.

Comments on the Group's performance

QUARTER APRIL - JUNE

Revenue

Group revenue increased 32% to SEK 381 million (288). Organic sales grew by 20%. As in the first quarter of 2023, growth was robust in North America, Europe and other markets, as well as in all product and user groups. Currency movements had a positive impact of 8% on revenue and acquisitions contributed 4%.

Performance

Consolidated gross profit amounted to SEK 258 million (184), corresponding to a gross margin of 68% (64). The increase was mainly attributable to the normalization of component and freight costs and progressively higher sales prices.

Operating profit totaled SEK 29 million (16) and the operating margin was 7.6% (5.4). The operating margin was 9.2%, excluding non-recurring costs.

Operating expenses were affected by non-recurring costs of approximately SEK 6 million, mainly related to the acquisition of Rehadapt Engineering. Excluding these costs, operating expenses increased organically by around 16 percent. The increase in operating expenses was affected by factors such as significant staff increases in the sales and marketing organization and new agreements on salaries and benefits that entered into force on April 1. Investments in systems and tools to manage a growing business also contributed to the cost increase. In the comparative period, costs were lower than normal due to the effects of the pandemic on the level of activity relating to travel, events, conferences, etc.

Research and development expenses had a negative impact on operating profit of SEK 5 million for the quarter compared with the corresponding quarter last year, mainly related to normalization of development costs as well as even higher depreciation costs because of new product launches. Investments relate to the development of proprietary products, the majority of which involve software and voice technology.

Financial items amounted to SEK -12 million (-7) and mainly consisted of interest on external loans. Profit before tax was SEK 17 million (9).

Tax for the quarter amounted to SEK -0 (-3) million, of which SEK 5 (0) million related to deferred tax.

Profit for the period was SEK 17 million (6). Basic and diluted earnings per share were SEK 0.16 (0.05).

Currency effects

Higher exchange rates, primarily USD/SEK, had a positive impact on revenue of SEK 23 million and on operating profit of SEK 0 million compared with the corresponding quarter last year.

Cash flow, liquidity and financial position

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital amounted to SEK 55 million (39). Change in working capital amounted to SEK 6 million (-39).

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -31 million (-106), of which SEK -21 million (-22) was capitalization of R&D costs. Cash flow for the period was SEK 13 million (-56). During the quarter, an amortization of the credit facility of SEK 13 million was made.

At the end of the quarter, the Group had cash and cash equivalents of SEK 116 million (116). Consolidated net debt totaled SEK 476 million (553), including SEK 53 million (67) in IFRS 16 finance leases.

To finance the future acquisition of Rehadapt engineering, Tobii Dynavox has expanded its total credit facility with additional loans from Swedbank of SEK 100 million during the quarter to SEK 800 million.

PERIOD JANUARY - JUNE

Revenue

Group revenue increased 34% to SEK 716 million (535). Organic sales grew by 18%. There was good growth in North America, Europe and other markets, as well as in all product and user groups. Currency movements had a positive impact of 10% on revenue and acquisitions contributed 7%.

Performance

Consolidated gross profit amounted to SEK 480 million (341), corresponding to a gross margin of 67% (64). The increase was mainly attributable to the normalization of component and freight costs, some economies of scale, and progressively higher sales prices.

Operating profit totaled SEK 50 million (33) and the operating margin was 7.0% (6.1). The operating margin was 7.8%, excluding non-recurring costs.

Operating expenses were affected by non-recurring costs of approximately SEK 6 million, mainly related to the acquisition of Rehadapt Engineering. Excluding these costs, operating expenses increased organically by around 16 percent. The increase in operating expenses was affected by factors such as significant staff increases in the sales and marketing organization and

new agreements on salaries and benefits that entered into force on April 1. Investments in systems and tools to manage a growing business also contributed to the cost increase. In the comparative period, costs were lower than normal due to the effects of the pandemic on the level of activity relating to travel, events, conferences, etc.

Research and development expenses had a negative impact on operating profit of SEK 16 million for the period compared with the corresponding period last year, mainly related to normalization of development costs as well as even higher depreciation costs because of new product launches. Investments relate to the development of proprietary products, the majority of which involve software and voice technology.

Financial items amounted to SEK -21 million (-13) and mainly consisted of interest on external loans. Profit before tax was SEK 30 million (20).

In early October 2022, a new three-year financing agreement was signed with Swedbank. The credit facilities include the same financing framework as before, SEK 700 million, and are classified as social loans. This means that Tobii Dynavox qualifies as a company that contributes to the development of society through sustainable social initiatives.

To finance the future acquisition of Rehadapt Engineering, Tobii Dynavox has increased its total credit facility with Swedbank to SEK 800 million by signing and extending its credit facility with an additional term loan of SEK 100 million. Tobii Dynavox will use this new term loan and its revolving credit facility to pay for this acquisition.

The total utilized part of the credit facility and term loan was SEK 542 million at the end of the period.

Organization

The number of employees converted to full-time equivalents at the period end was 616 (553).

Acquisition

On June 30, 2023, Tobii Dynavox entered into an agreement to acquire all shares in the German company Rehadapt Engineering for EUR 15 million in cash on a debt-free basis. Additionally, a potential earn-out consideration of up to EUR 3.5 million 12 months after closing of the transaction will be paid depending on the continued financial development of Rehadapt. The transaction is subject to relevant regulatory approvals and other customary conditions, which are expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2023.

Rehadapt is a provider of medically certified mounting solutions for assistive technology, including out-of-the-box and flexible solutions to support individual communication, independent mobility kits and customized accessories.

Note 9.Acquisition

On June 30, 2023, Tobii Dynavox entered into an agreement to acquire all shares in the German company Rehadapt Engineering for EUR 15 million in cash on a debt-free basis. Additionally, a potential earn-out consideration of up to EUR 3.5 million 12 months after closing of the transaction will be paid depending on the continued financial development of Rehadapt. The transaction is subject to relevant regulatory approvals and other customary conditions, which are expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2023.

Rehadapt is a provider of medically certified mounting solutions for assistive technology, including out-of-the-box and flexible solutions to support individual communication, independent mobility kits and customized accessories. Based on over 20 years of expertise and innovative development, Rehadapt has created a well-respected brand and a valuable asset base in the field of mounting solutions. Rehadapt's products are currently sold together with Tobii Dynavox's products as well as by many other companies in assistive communication. Rehadapt has approximately 50 employees and is headquartered in Kassel, Germany with a local subsidiary and distribution center in the United States. Rehadapt's turnover in 2022 was approximately EUR 10 million with an adjusted EBIT margin of approximately 20%. The seller, Rehadapt's CEO Uli Ehlert, will remain with Rehadapt for a period of at least one year.

In 2022, Tobii Dynavox acquired the Irish company Obear Technologies Limited, operating under the company name Safe Care Technologies, and the Belgian company Acapela Group, a global provider of voice synthesis and digital voices. In the same year, Tobii Dynavox also signed an agreement to acquire all business operations and assets from its reseller partner ASK in Denmark.

As a result of these acquisitions, Tobii Dynavox expects to both strengthen its product offering and come closer to users in the countries where these acquisitions are active, with the hope of giving more people a voice. Tobii Dynavox also expects to reduce costs through synergies.

The following tables summarize the purchase consideration paid and the preliminary fair value of assets acquired, and liabilities assumed for the acquisitions made in 2022.
