Signs of improvement now it's time to close the growth gap

Sales for the fourth quarter increased by 11 percent to SEK 2,007 million, while EBITA was in line with the corresponding quarter in the previous year. The lower EBITA margin for the quarter is mainly attributable to the Tornum platform, which has experienced continued lower demand combined with profitability challenges in a couple of projects in Spain.

We made two strategic add-on acquisitions. Salix Group strengthened its presence in Denmark with the acquisition of Timberman, a market-leading supplier of flooring solutions. In early 2025, Ettiketto Group acquired the company Clever Etiketten, a leading supplier of label solutions in Germany. This marks Ettiketto Group's entry into the German market and creates a platform for future growth in Central Europe. Together, these acquisitions bring approximately SEK 710 million in annual sales.

Earnings per share increased by 36 percent during the quarter and cash flow was strong both in the fourth quarter and the full year 2024. Volati's cash conversion was 104 percent in 2024 and net debt/adjusted EBITDA fell from 2.8x to 2.6x during the fourth quarter. This gives us scope for further acquisitions in 2025.

Good development in Ettiketto Group and the business area's first acquisition outside the Nordic region

Ettiketto Group continued to perform well in the quarter, with organic sales growth of 16 percent and an EBITA margin that increased from 18 to 20 percent. The EBITA margin for the full year was 21 percent. The margin expansion is due to operational improvements and synergies from completed acquisitions. The acquisition of Clever Etiketten in Germany provides a platform for continued growth, while also offering good opportunities to increase the profitability of the acquired company in line with previous acquisitions.

Gradual market improvements for Salix Group

In the fourth quarter, Salix Group increased its sales by 17 percent, mainly driven by acquisitions. For the first time in a long time, we also note organic growth in the business area. EBITA increased from SEK 45 to SEK 50 million. After a prolonged period of challenging market conditions, we now see signs of a gradual improvement, although from low levels.

Timberman A/S was acquired in December, strengthening Salix Group's position in the Danish market. Despite challenging market conditions over the last three years, Salix maintained a good acquisition rate and made seven add-on acquisitions with total annual sales of SEK 1.2 billion.

Continued mixed performance for Industry, which is performing below the desired level

The Industry business area's net sales for Q4 increased by 4 percent, while the margin fell from 10 to 7 percent. The negative margin trend is mainly due to weak earnings for Tornum Group, which was adversely affected by weak demand in large parts of Europe in the second half of the year. Unfortunately, Tornum Group also had a couple of projects with weak profitability during the quarter, which had a negative effect on earnings.

S:t Eriks continues to face challenges due to a weak construction market, while the infrastructure market is stable. Communication showed good earnings growth compared with Q4 in the previous year, partly due to weak comparative figures. Corroventa had another good quarter, but earnings were still a little down compared to the previous year due to a very strong comparative quarter.

As I look back on 2024, I can see that, after three years of challenging market conditions, we have created a growth gap. Volati has a target to increase EBITA by an average of at least 15 percent per year, which means doubling earnings in five years. In recent years, we have not achieved this and therefore have an earnings gap that we need to close. However, we have taken advantage of the situation by actively working on shortterm cost measures in response to lower demand in several platforms, while accelerating long-term strategic initiatives. This leaves us well equipped to capitalise on market growth when demand picks up. During the last three years, we have also made value-creating add-on acquisitions that have contributed SEK 2.4 billion to annual sales. A gradual normalisation of construction activity should create conditions for accelerated growth for Volati in the next two to three years. It is now up to us to demonstrate our ability to deliver on our financial targets over time.

Equity

The Group's equity amounted to SEK 2,215 million at the end of the period, compared with SEK 2,206 million at the end of the previous year.

Net debt/adjusted EBITDA was 2.6x at the end of the quarter, compared with 2.0x at the end of 2023. Total liabilities amounted to SEK 5,236 (4,346) million on 31 December 2024, of which interest-bearing liabilities, including pension obligations and lease liabilities, amounted to SEK 2,948 (2,325) million.

adjusted EBITDA Q4 2024

Business acquisitions and divestments

Acquisitions are a core element of Volati's strategy for creating long-term value growth, and the Company continuously evaluates both complementary add-on acquisitions and acquisitions in new lines of business. It is Volati's assessment that there is a lower risk level for add-on acquisitions than for acquisitions in new lines of business, as in-depth industrial know-how and a recipient organisation are already in place in the acquiring company. Add-on acquisitions also enable synergies.

On 11 December, Salix Group, an independent Volati, business area, signed an agreement to acquire all shares in Timberman A/S, a market-leading flooring supplier in Denmark. This is an add-on acquisition that strengthens Salix Group's presence in Denmark. Timberman has sales of approximately SEK 420 million, with an adjusted EBITA of approximately SEK 60 million. The purchase price was approximately SEK 310 million (enterprise value), corresponding to an EV/adjusted EBITA multiple of about 5x.

For acquisitions during the period January-September, see note 4.

Salix Group continues to face a challenging market, but with signs of increased activity, particularly for products aimed at the consumer market. Net sales for Q4 increased by 17 percent, mainly driven by acquisitions, but, for the first time since Q2 2022, also by organic growth. The EBITA margin for the quarter decreased slightly compared with the previous year. Net sales for the full year 2024 increased by 5 percent compared with the previous year, with a slightly lower EBITA margin.

Salix Group has encountered lower market demand in recent years. To meet the challenge, Salix Group has worked on cost control, synergies within the Group and

active market development. In the fourth quarter, Salix Group saw some signs of increased activity in the area of building materials and showed organic growth for the quarter. The long-term need for Salix Group's products is considered good and the sector as a whole is expected to show growth again in 2025. With its disciplined work on efficiency improvements, customer communication, pricing and a focus on growth, Salix Group is well positioned for when the volumes return.

The acquisition of Timberman A/S, a Danish supplier of flooring solutions, was completed in the fourth quarter of 2024. The process of integrating and developing Trejon Försäljnings AB and Beslag Design AB is progressing according to plan. The acquisitions strengthen the business area's offering to forestry and agriculture, and the interior fittings market. The business area sees further acquisition opportunities in the majority of its operations.

Ettiketto Group

Ettiketto Group is a leading Nordic supplier of self-adhesive labels for a variety of applications including consumer goods, food and industry. The company also has a comprehensive range of labelling machines that are integrated into customers' production lines.

Ettiketto Group performed well in Q4 2024, increasing net sales organically by 16 percent, while the EBITA margin increased by 2 percentage points compared with the same quarter in the previous year. Net sales for the full year 2024 increased by 9 percent and the EBITA margin increased by 3 percentage points to 21 percent.

Net sales and the order intake in the Swedish operations were good during the quarter. During the year, the organisation has worked actively to meet the increased demand by expanding the machinery and the utilisation rate of existing machines, which has produced results during the quarter.

Ettiketto Group has had an EBITA margin of 21 percent over the last 12 months, having consistently increased over the last nine quarters. Ettiketto Group started its acquisition journey four years ago and showed strong growth in the period 2020-2022 through acquisitions of businesses. When the acquisition journey began, Ettiketto Group had a margin of 20 percent, while the acquired companies on average had a lower margin. Following the acquisitions, Ettiketto Group has worked systematically to realise synergies and improve the operational efficiency of the acquired companies, which means that the margin for Ettiketto Group is now back above 20 percent. The acquisition of Clever Etiketten GmbH in Q1 2025 opens up a new platform in Central Europe, enabling Ettiketto Group to use its proven ability to consolidate the market and improve the profitability of acquired companies. The prospects for continued acquisitive growth are considered good.

Industry

The Industry business area consists of four businesses with leading market positions in their own niches. The businesses are manufacturing suppliers of solutions in grain handling, moisture and water damage restoration, infrastructure for telecom and lighting, and stone and cement products for infrastructure, paving and roofing.

The business area's net sales for Q4 increased by 4 percent, with half of the growth organic and half acquisitive. The EBITA margin fell to 7 percent, compared with 10 percent in the previous year, mainly due to a challenging situation for the Tornum Group platform. Net sales for the full year 2024 showed a decline of 5 percent and the EBITA margin fell to 7 percent, compared with 11 percent in the previous year. The businesses are working actively on price discipline, productivity improvements and cost control to manage market conditions.

The Corroventa platform performed well during the

quarter but showed a decline in earnings due to a strong comparative quarter. The Tornum Group platform continued to face a challenging market during the quarter, driven by lower demand in the agricultural segment in large parts of Europe. During the quarter, Tornum Group was negatively affected by a couple of projects with low profitability in the Spanish operations. In 2024, Tornum Group signed contract for an important project with Lantmännen, which will have a positive impact on 2025 and 2026. The S:t Eriks platform continues to be negatively affected by the current construction market, while products for the infrastructure segment are experiencing more stable demand. In the face of increased demand, the Communication platform showed good growth in the quarter, which was partly due to weak comparative figures.

The process of integrating and developing SIMEZA is progressing according to plan. The acquisition strengthens and complements Volati's offering in the Tornum Group platform. The business area sees further acquisition opportunities in the majority of its operations.

Head office

Head office comprises the central costs in the Parent Company Volati AB and associated operations. Head office costs for Q4 amounted to SEK 16 (14) million. Head office costs for the full year 2024 were SEK 53 (53) million.

Notes to consolidated financial statements

Note 1 Accounting policies

The Group applies International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU. This year-end report for the Group has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and RFR 1 Supplementary Accounting Rules for Groups. The report for the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. The accounting policies are consistent with those applied by the Group in the 2023 annual report.

During Q3 2024, there was a change to the presentation of the discount effect for additional consideration, which has been transferred from Other operating income and expenses to Finance income and costs. For the period January-December 2024, the amount was SEK 4 (4) million. The 2023 comparative periods have been restated, while prior periods have not been restated.

Some figures in this report have been rounded, which means that certain tables do not always add up exactly. This applies where figures are stated in thousands, millions or billions. Pages 1-12 of this report are an integral part of the year-end report.

Note 2 Risks and uncertainties

The current war between Russia and Ukraine affects us all, but above all it is a humanitarian disaster for the Ukrainian people. Volati's direct economic exposure to Russia and Ukraine is relatively limited, but the war has also caused turbulence in world markets, and inflation and interest rates have risen since the war began, affecting the cost of the Group's purchases and increasing net interest. Volati is closely monitoring developments.

It is the assessment that the Group's other material risks and uncertainties are unchanged from those described in detail in the 2023 Annual Report.

Note 3 Segment reporting

At the end of Q4, Volati consisted of the three business areas Salix Group, Ettiketto Group and Industry. Segment reporting follows the principles set out in the 2023 Annual Report.

Note 4 Business acquisitions

The acquisition of Trejon Försäljnings AB was finalised on 25 January and an agreement to acquire all shares in Beslag Design AB was signed on 20 February. Both companies are add-on acquisitions for Salix Group. Trejon Försäljnings AB reported annual sales of SEK 300 million in 2022/23. Beslag Design reported annual sales of approximately SEK 190 million in 2023.

An acquisition in the Ettiketto Group business area was made during the third quarter. The acquired company reported sales of SEK 7 million in 2023.

On 11 December, all shares in Timberman A/S, a market-leading flooring supplier in Denmark, were acquired. The acquisition is an add-on acquisition for Salix Group and strengthens the business area's presence in Denmark. Timberman has sales of approximately SEK 420 million, with an adjusted EBITA of approximately SEK 60 million. The purchase price was approximately SEK 310 million (enterprise value), corresponding to an EV/adjusted EBITA multiple of about 5x.

The Group's earnings were affected by transaction costs of SEK 6 million for the above acquisitions. Goodwill of SEK 169 million arising from the transactions is supported by several factors, largely attributable to the acquired companies' synergies, employees and market shares. Cash settlements of additional consideration during the year amounted to SEK 23 million.

The impact of the acquisitions on the Volati Group's balance sheet on the acquisition date is set out below.

If the acquisitions had been consolidated with effect from 1 January 2024, their contribution to the Group's income statement, excluding transaction costs, for the period 1 January to 31 December would have been as follows: sales SEK 813 million, EBITDA SEK 122 million, EBITA SEK 117 million and operating profit SEK 78 million.

Note 6 Alternative performance measures

The financial reports published by Volati include alternative performance measures (APMs), which supplement the metrics defined or specified in the applicable rules for financial reporting, such as revenue, profit or loss and earnings per share. APMs are specified when they, in their context, provide clearer or more in-depth data than those metrics defined in the applicable rules for financial reporting. The basis for APMs is that they are used by management to assess financial performance and can thus be considered to give analysts and other stakeholders valuable information.

Volati regularly uses APMs as a complement to the key metrics defined in IFRS. The APMs derive from Volati's consolidated accounts and do not comprise measures of financial performance or liquidity in accordance with IFRS and, accordingly, should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating profit or other key metrics that are derived pursuant to IFRS or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of consolidated liquidity.

The following table sets out definitions for Volati's key figures. The calculation of APMs is presented separately below.

Non-IFRS APMs and key metrics Description Reason for use
EBITDA Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortisation.
EBITDA is used together with EBITA to
clarify earnings before the effects of
depreciation and impairment, and before
amortisation of acquisition-related intangible
assets, in order to provide a view of the profit
generated by operating activities.
Items affecting comparability These items include transaction-related costs,
restructuring costs, remeasurement of additional
consideration, capital gains/losses on the sale of
operations and non-current assets, and other items that
affect comparability over time.
Items affecting comparability represent
income and expenses that are not
attributable to the underlying performance of
the business.
Adjusted EBITDA Calculated as EBITDA, excl. IFRS 16 operating lease
adjustments, for the last 12 months for the companies
included in the Group at the reporting date, as if they had
been owned for the last 12 months, and adjusted for
transaction-related costs, restructuring costs,
remeasurement of additional consideration, capital
gains/losses on the sale of operations and non-current
assets, and other items that affect comparability over time.
Adjusted EBITDA provides management and
investors with a view of the size of the
operations included in the Group at the
reporting date, as it does not include items
not directly attributable to day-to-day
operations. Also used in our covenant
calculations for the bank.
EBITA Earnings before interest, taxes and amortisation. Together with EBITDA, EBITA provides a
view of the profit generated by operating
activities.
EBITA excl. items affecting
comparability
Calculated as EBITA, adjusted for transaction-related
costs, restructuring costs, remeasurement of purchase
consideration, capital gains/losses on the sale of
operations and assets, and other items that affect
comparability over time.
Used by management to monitor the
underlying earnings growth for the Group.
EBITA growth per ordinary share Calculated as EBITA divided by the number of ordinary
shares outstanding at the end of the period compared with
the same period the previous year.
Used to illustrate earnings per ordinary share
generated by operating activities.
Organic net sales growth Calculated as net sales for the period, adjusted for
acquired and divested net sales and currency effects,
compared with net sales for the same period the previous
year as if the units had been owned for the same length of
time in the comparative period as the length of time they
have been legally consolidated in the current period.
This metric is used by management to
monitor the underlying net sales growth in
existing operations.
Organic EBITA growth Calculated as EBITA excluding items affecting
comparability for the period, adjusted for total acquired
and divested EBITA and currency effects, compared with
EBITA excluding items affecting comparability for the
same period the previous year, as if the units had been
owned for the same length of time in the comparative
period as the length of time they have been legally
consolidated in the current period.
Used by management to monitor the
underlying earnings growth for existing
operations.
Return on equity Net profit (including share attributable to non-controlling
interests) divided by average equity for the last four
quarters (including share attributable to non-controlling
interests).
Shows the return generated on the total
capital invested in the Company by
shareholders.
Return on adjusted equity Net profit (including share attributable to non-controlling
interests) less preference share dividend divided by
average equity for the last four quarters (including share
attributable to non-controlling interests) less preference
share capital.
Shows the underlying return generated on
ordinary share capital invested in the
Company by owners of ordinary shares.
Equity ratio Equity (including share attributable to non-controlling
interests) as a percentage of total assets.
The metric can be used to assess financial
risk.
Non-IFRS APMs and key metrics Description Reason for use
Cash conversion Calculated as operating cash flow for the last 12 months
divided by EBITDA excl. IFRS 16 Leases.
Cash conversion is used by management to
monitor how efficiently the Company is
managing working capital and ongoing
investments.
Operating cash flow Calculated as EBITDA, excl. IFRS 16 Leases, adjusted for
non-cash items, less the difference between investments
in/divestments of property, plant & equipment and
intangible assets, after adjustment for cash flow from
changes in working capital, excl. IFRS 16.
Operating cash flow is used by management
to monitor cash flow generated by operating
activities.
Net debt/Adjusted EBITDA Interest-bearing net debt, excl. adjustments for IFRS 16
Leases, additional consideration and put options at the
end of the period in relation to adjusted EBITDA for the
period.
The metric can be used to assess financial
risk.
Return on capital employed (ROCE
excl. goodwill)
EBITA excluding items affecting comparability for the last
12 months divided by average capital employed for the
last 12 months.
Shows the return on capital employed
generated by each business area and the
Group without taking into consideration
acquisition-related intangible assets with
indefinite useful lives.
Return on capital employed including
goodwill (ROCE incl. goodwill)
EBITA excluding items affecting comparability for the last
12 months divided by average capital employed including
goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite useful
lives for the last 12 months.
Shows the return on capital employed
generated by each business area and the
Group.
