TOMRA Q2: Good Activity Level and Strong Sorting Order Intake

Revenues in the second quarter 2017 amounted to 1,972 MNOK compared to 1,769

MNOK in the second quarter last year. This represent an increase of 11%.

Organic, currency adjusted revenues were down 12% in TOMRA Collection Solutions

and up 8% in TOMRA Sorting Solutions.

Gross margin was 42% in the quarter, down from 43% in the same period last year.

The decline is explained by the consolidation of Compac.

The Group reported operating expenses of 528 MNOK in the second quarter,

unchanged compared to same quarter last year after adjusting for currency and

acquisitions.

EBITA was 306 MNOK in the second quarter 2016 compared to 319 MNOK in the second

quarter 2017.

Net finance was positive by 9 MNOK in the quarter, positively influenced by

currency gains of 12 MNOK.

The cash flow from operations in the second quarter 2017 equaled 170 MNOK, down

from 239 MNOK in the second quarter 2016.

Collection Solutions:  German Replacement Cycle Maturing

Revenues in the business area equaled 975 MNOK in the second quarter, down from

1,089 MNOK in second quarter last year. After adjustment for currency changes,

revenues were down 12%.

Gross margin was 42%, unchanged from last year. Operating expenses were 220

MNOK, down 2% currency adjusted.

As a result of lower revenues in the quarter EBITA declined from 237 MNOK to

MNOK 191 compared to the same period last year.

"The activity level in Germany is still good due to the ongoing replacement

demand, but the very high activity level we saw last year is naturally coming to

a lower level as we are further in the replacement cycle", says Stefan

Ranstrand, TOMRA President and CEO.

As a part of the announced Container Deposit Scheme in New South Wales,

Australia commencing December 1st, TOMRA submitted a tender bid for a role as

Network Operator. The bid was made jointly with Cleanaway, the leading waste

management company in Australia. A response from the New South Wales Environment

Protection Authority is expected during the month of July.

Sorting Solutions: Year on Year Improvement in all Business Streams

Revenues equaled 997 MNOK in second quarter 2017. This represented an increase

of 8% in local currencies, adjusted for acquisitions (Compac). Gross margin was

42%, down from same period last year due to consolidation of Compac.

Organic and currency adjusted the operating expenses were unchanged compared to

same period last year.

EBITA increased from 92 MNOK in second quarter 2016 to 131 MNOK in second

quarter 2017, driven by higher volumes and positive contribution from Compac.

TOMRA paid at closing a consideration of 70 MNZD for the acquisition of Compac,

free of cash and interest-bearing debt. In addition to the initial purchase

price, the sellers were entitled to an earn-out linked to the total EBIT for the

period July 2016 to June 2019. A financial completion statement was prepared and

presented during the second quarter 2017, which was subject to discussions

between TOMRA and the vendors. In July 2017, the parties agreed a final

settlement where the earn/out was cancelled in exchange for certain upfront

agreements regarding warranty clauses and working capital levels.

"We are pleased with the overall good momentum in TOMRA Sorting. The order

inflow in Food was better than same period last year and we have seen the

increased activity level in Recycling continue in the quarter. This leaves us

with a solid backlog at the end of this quarter, and we expect the good momentum

to continue in the short term", Ranstrand comments on the outlook for Sorting

Solutions.
