growth. The order intake was all-time high, leading to a new record in the order

though to a lesser extent than in the previous four quarters.

Revenues in the second quarter 2021 amounted to 2,685 MNOK compared to 2,319

MNOK in second quarter last year. Currency adjusted revenues were up 27% for

TOMRA Group. At division level, currency adjusted revenues were up 43% in TOMRA

Collection Solutions, up 33% in TOMRA Recycling Mining and up 6% in TOMRA Food.

Gross margin was 45% in the second quarter 2021, up from 43% in the same period

last year, with higher margins in TOMRA Collection Solutions compared to a weak

second quarter 2020.

MNOK in second quarter 2020.

"TOMRA remains on a solid path ending the second quarter of 2021 with all-time

high order intake and order backlog. We have earned a unique position, we

continue to innovate, invest in our strategic initiatives, and build

partnerships with major stakeholders. What got us here is the engagement,

creativity, and hard work of the people in TOMRA. The world needs more of TOMRA,

and we are proud to have developed an ecosystem in which people are energized

and come together as their whole selves to find the best and most innovative

solutions.", says Stefan Ranstrand, TOMRA President and CEO.

Collection Solutions: Growth in European markets, successful rollout of the

Dutch deposit expansion

Revenues in the business area equaled 1,379 MNOK in the second quarter, up from

1,055 MNOK in second quarter last year. After adjustment for currency changes,

revenues were up 43%.

Gross margin increased to 44% in the second quarter from 39% in the same period

last year as a result of operating leverage, product/customer mix and a weak

margin in second quarter 2020. Operating expenses amounted to 325 MNOK, compared

to 290 MNOK last year, due to business expansion.

The strong momentum in Europe continued in second quarter 2021. Northern

European and German markets have been growing in the second quarter 2021

compared to the same period last year, which was mostly unaffected by the COVID

-19 pandemic. The deposit expansion to small bottles in The Netherlands has been

a success and an important contributor to the revenue growth in the second

quarter of 2021. The North American business is running at similar levels as

before the COVID-19 pandemic, but is significantly up compared to second quarter

2020, when redemption centers and bottle rooms were closed due to lockdown

measures. Volumes in Australia were somewhat down in June due to new COVID-19

outbreaks.

EBITA was 278 MNOK in the second quarter, up from 118 MNOK last year.

Recycling Mining: Order intake up 48% and all-time high order backlog

Revenues equaled 439 MNOK in second quarter 2021, up 33% in local currencies

compared to last year. Gross margin was 53%, down from 55% in second quarter

Operating expenses in the second quarter amounted to 140 MNOK versus 129 MNOK

last year, driven by further investments into circular economy initiatives.

EBITA was 94 MNOK in the period, compared to 64 MNOK in second quarter 2020.

Order intake was 529 MNOK in the second quarter, compared to 347 MNOK in the

same period last year, an increase of 48% in local currencies. The order backlog

increased to 822 MNOK at the end of second quarter 2021, up 27% currency

adjusted from the end of second quarter 2020.

High commodity prices, material shortage, the need for better waste management

and demand for circular solutions have a positive impact on the recycling

business.

Food: Upturn in processed food and positive momentum in fresh food

Revenues equaled 867 MNOK in second quarter 2021, compared to 910 MNOK in the

same period last year, up 6% when adjusting for currencies. Gross margin was

43%, stable compared to second quarter 2020.

Operating expenses in the second quarter 2021 amounted to 252 MNOK, down from

262 MNOK in the same period last year.

EBITA was 122 MNOK in second quarter 2021 compared to 132 MNOK in second quarter

Order intake was 881 MNOK in the second quarter 2021, compared to 748 MNOK in

the same period last year, up 32% currency adjusted. The order backlog was 1,210

MNOK at the end of second quarter 2021, compared 1,051 MNOK in second quarter

2020, an increase of 24% when measured in local currencies.

Home consumption has boosted the grocery business and sustained the good

momentum in fresh food throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. The momentum in the

food service sector has turned to an increasingly positive one and the order

intake so far in 2021 has been well above 2020 levels. Travel restrictions and

social distancing measures continue to be a challenge when meeting new

customers.
