CONSOLIDATED FINANCIALS
Fourth quarter
Revenues in the first quarter 2019 amounted to 2,081 MNOK compared to 1,754 MNOK in first quarter last year, up 19%. Organic, currency adjusted revenues were up 8% in TOMRA Collection Solutions and up 20% in TOMRA Sorting Solutions.
Gross margin was 42% in the quarter, up from 41% in first quarter 2018, due to improved margins in TOMRA Sorting Solutions.
Operating expenses of 667 MNOK in first quarter, up from 580 MNOK in first quarter last year. The increase relates mainly to future oriented activities.
EBITA was 207 MNOK in first quarter 2019 – up 46% from same period last year. EBITA was positively influenced by 7 MNOK from the implementation of IFRS 16.
The EPS increased by 43% to NOK 0.73 in the same period. The figure was negatively influenced by NOK 0.01 from the implementation of IFRS 16.
Cash flow from operations in first quarter 2019 equaled 229 MNOK, compared to 120 MNOK in first quarter 2018. The cash flow from operations in first quarter 2019 was positively influenced by 64 MNOK from the implementation of IFRS 16.
Total assets were 10,695 MNOK as of 31 March 2019, up from 8,808 MNOK one year ago. The increase is explained by investments in Australia, higher activity, currencies and the implementation of IFRS 16 (1,006 MNOK effect). For the same reasons, equity decreased from 51% to 47% during the same period.
Net Interest Bearing Debt/EBITDA (rolling 12 months' basis) decreased from 0.8x at the end of first quarter 2018 to 0.7x at the end of first quarter 2019 (measured before IFRS 16 effects).
IFRS 16
TOMRA introduced in first quarter 2019 IFRS 16 "Leases". The value of lease agreements where TOMRA is the lessee, is now booked as a right-of-use asset and the corresponding net present value of lease payments are presented as interest bearing debt. The 2018 figures have not been restated.

Recycling/Mining
Revenues in first quarter 2019 increased significantly compared to first quarter 2018. Order intake also increased in comparison to a strong first quarter 2018. Recycling ended the quarter with a backlog significantly up compared to end first quarter 2018. The general awareness around recycling and China's ban on import of waste is continuing to generate business opportunities.








MARKET OUTLOOK
The long term demand for better resource productivity is a result of megatrends such as population increase, a growing middle class consumer base, the emergence of e-commerce and greater urbanization. TOMRA, as a leader in sensor based solutions, is favorably positioned to capitalize on these trends.
TOMRA Collection Solutions
Overall, the business is stable in TOMRA Collection. Operating expenses will increase going forward, in preparation for new markets.
TOMRA Sorting Solutions
Currently positive momentum in Recycling and temporary somewhat slower momentum in Food.
Currency
Reporting in NOK and with some NOK cost base, TOMRA will in general benefit from a weak NOK, measured particularly against EUR. With significant revenues in USD and costs in EUR and NZD, TOMRA Sorting is exposed to USD/EUR and USD/NZD.

The total number of issued shares at the end of first quarter 2019 was 148,020,078 shares, including 284,628 treasury shares.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 Disclosure
This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS34, and in accordance with the principles used in the annual accounts for 2018, except for the implementation of IFRS 16 (see note 5 below). The quarterly reports do not however include all information required for a full annual financial statement of the Group and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statement for 2018. The quarterly reports have not been audited. The quarterly reports require management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The significant judgments made by management in preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2018.
A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are not effective for the period ended 31 March 2019 and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements. Those that may be relevant to the Group are set out below. The Group does not plan to adopt these standards early. These will be adopted in the period that they become mandatory unless otherwise indicated:
IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts Amendment to IFRS 3 Business Combinations Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8: Definition of Material Amendments to References to Conceptual Framework in IFRS standards
TOMRA's current assessment of these new and revised standards does not indicate any material effects in the financial statements from the new requirements.

Revenue recognition: Revenues from sales and sales-type leases of the company's products are generally recognized at the time of installation. Revenues from service contracts and operating leases of the company's products are recognized over the duration of the related agreements. Other service revenues are recognized when services are provided.
Seasonality: The Material Recovery operations, to some extent the US Reverse Vending operations as well as the TCS Australian operations are influenced by seasonality. The seasonality mirrors the beverage consumption pattern, which normally is higher during the summer than during the winter.
Financial exposures: TOMRA is exposed to currency risk, as only ~2% of its income is nominated in NOK. A strengthening/ weakening of NOK toward other currencies of 10% would normally decrease/increase operating profit by 10-14%. An increase in NIBOR and EURIBOR of 1 percentage point, would increase financial expenses by ~NOK 15 million per year.
Segment reporting: TOMRA has divided its primary reporting format into two business areas: Collection Solutions and Sorting Solutions. In addition, the corporate overhead costs are reported in a separate column. The split is based upon the risk- and return profile of the Group's different activities; also taking into consideration TOMRA's internal reporting structure.
- Collection Solutions consists of the business streams Reverse Vending (development, production, sales and service and lease of Reverse Vending Machines and related data management systems) + Material Recovery (pick-up, transportation and processing of empty beverage containers on behalf of beverage producers/fillers on the US East Coast and in Canada)
- Sorting Solutions consists of the business streams Food, Recycling and Mining, all providing advanced optical sorting systems.
- Group Functions consists of costs related to corporate functions at TOMRA's headquarters
Assets and liabilities are distributed to the different business streams, except for cash, interest-bearing debt and taxpositions, which are allocated to Group Functions. There are no material revenues from transactions with other business areas. There were no material related party transactions in 2019.
Alternative performance measures: Alternative performance measures used in this report are defined in the following way:
- EBITA is the calculated profit (loss) for the period before (i) income tax expenses, (ii) finance income and expenses and (iii) amortization.
- EBIT is the calculated profit (loss) for the period before (i) income tax expenses and (ii) finance income and expenses.
- Net interest-bearing debt is calculated as the difference between interest-bearing debts and cash/cash equivalents. Interest-bearing debts include loans from financial institutions (current and non-current loans) as well as lease liability under IFRS 16. Cash/cash equivalents include short-term deposits, cash funds and bank accounts.
- Currency adjusted revenues is the revised revenues after adjusting for estimated currency effect.
- Order backlog is defined as the value of orders received within Tomra Sorting that has not yet been delivered (and consequently not yet taken to P/L).
- Order intake is defined as Order backlog at the end of a period minus Order backlog at the beginning of a period plus revenues for the relevant period
- Cost of goods sold refers to the direct costs attributable to the production of the goods sold.
- Gross contribution is defined as Revenues minus Cost of goods sold
- Gross margin is defined as Gross contribution divided by Revenues in percent.
- Operating expenses is defined as cost not directly attributable to the production of the goods sold
- EBITA margin is defined as EBITA divided by Revenues in percent.
- EPS (Earnings per share) is defined as Profit for the period attributable to the shareholders of the parent divided weighted average of outstanding shares

The TOMRA Group mainly leases properties, land and cars. Rental contracts are typically made for fixed periods of 1 to 15 years but may have extension options. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and conditions.
The TOMRA Group has applied IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach and therefore the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under IAS 17 and IFRIC 4.
At inception of the contract, the TOMRA Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
The TOMRA Group recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-ofuse asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentive received.
The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of use asset or the end of the lease term. The estimated useful lies of right-of use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property and equipment. In addition, the right-of use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the TOMRA Groups incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the TOMRA Group uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following:
- Fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments
- Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate
- Amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee
- The exercise price of a purchase option that the TOMRA Group is reasonably certain to exercise
- Payment of penalties for early termination of a lease unless the TOMRA Group is reasonably certain not to terminate early.
The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the TOMRA Group's estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or if the TOMRA Group changes its assessment of whether if will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option.
When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.
The TOMRA Group has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. The TOMRA Group recognizes the lease payments associated with theses leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
