CEO’s statement  
We continue to strengthen operations and 
improve performance
Ahead of 2023, we set an ambitious plan to improve 
operational performance, continue to increase 
occupancy, while improving our contractual conditions. 
The result and cash flow in the third quarter show the 
strength of our plan, with growth of 22 percent and a 
doubling of earnings.  
It is pleasing to see that we can once again report a 
positive occupancy development in Finland, where we 
have previously been limited due to imbalances in the 
labour market. In Scandinavia, we see a stabilisation in 
relation to the previous quarter's development and we 
can look ahead to an improvement in earnings in 2024.  
We see a continued positive development on quality 
parameters and employee engagement while we 
continue to create conditions for organic growth. During 
the quarter, we started construction of new homes in 
both Sweden and Finland. Overall, we expect to reach 
our financial target of adjusted earnings per share of  
4 SEK in 2024. 
 
Group: High growth and stronger results 
The Group's sales amounted to SEK 4,488 million, which 
corresponds to an increase of 22 percent in total and 15 
percent measured in local currency. The growth is driven 
by improved conditions and more occupied beds. The 
lease adjusted operating profit (EBITA) for Q3 2023 
increased by SEK 175 million, compared to last year, to 
SEK 346 million, corresponding to a margin of 7.7 percent 
(4.6).  
Finland: Continued positive trend 
Sales in Attendo Finland increased by 24 percent in the 
quarter in local currency. Profit has strengthened 
significantly, driven by improvements in the care for older 
people operations. The main factors behind the 
improvement are new terms and conditions, operational 
improvements and more occupied beds. The development 
during the quarter shows that, despite a strained labour 
market, we have succeeded well in both retaining and 
growing our fantastic group of employees to be able to 
welcome more and more new people in need of care, 
which I see as a sign of strength.  
For the coming year, we expect to be able to compensate 
for cost increases with price adjustments. We have 
currently ongoing negotiations on conditions in social 
psychiatry and disabled care. With a gradual improvement 
in occupancy and conditions that better match the new 
staffing requirements, we look forward to returning to 
long-term sustainable profitability.  
A stable financial situation is crucial for us to be able to 
invest in new nursing homes, which in turn is necessary to 
meet future needs, for the benefit of both customers and 
welfare regions. 
Scandinavia: Stabilisation according to plan  
Sales in our Scandinavian care business increased by 
about 4 percent compared with the corresponding 
quarter last year. The reported result is down compared 
with the previous year. However, we see an underlying 
improvement in earnings in own nursing homes and own 
group homes (disabled care). At the same time, we still 
report losses in Denmark and lower results in home care, 
 
 
Martin Tivéus, CEO 
“The development in Finland shows that it is 
possible to turn an industry around, both in terms 
of quality and financially, after a long period of 
difficult conditions.”

but we see an improvement in these areas in relation to 
the previous quarter and expect to continue to improve 
gradually in the coming quarters. For 2024, we expect to 
be able to compensate for cost increases through price 
adjustments for the business area as a whole. 
I am very pleased that during the quarter we recruited 
Patrik Högberg as the new business area manager for 
Attendo Scandinavia. Patrik has solid leadership 
experience from the private and public sector and has all 
the prerequisites to continue developing the operations in 
Sweden and Denmark.  
Strengthened organisation in nursing homes 
As part of developing Attendo's operational model - 
Attendo Way - we are introducing a new, strengthened 
organisation in nursing homes in both of our business 
areas. An important part of this work is that we are 
increasing leadership density by introducing team leaders 
in nursing homes. The aim is to strengthen local managers 
and at the same time establish a more present leadership 
in operations, better communication and ultimately 
improved quality of care. 
 
 
 
 
Focus going forward 
I see good opportunities to continue developing Attendo 
going forward, to create value for customers, relatives, 
payors, shareholders and society as a whole. The 
development in Finland shows that it is possible to turn an 
industry around, both in terms of quality and financially, 
after a long period of difficult conditions. In Scandinavia, 
we have begun to see a stabilisation after a challenging 
period where the industry suffered from under-
compensation for cost inflation and wage increases.  
We are well on track to achieve our financial target of 
adjusted earnings per share of 4 SEK. As we previously 
announced, the timing of the fulfilment has been delayed 
due to inflation-related costs and higher interest costs. 
Our current assessment is that we will reach the target in 
2024. A stronger financial position also puts us in a good 
position to invest in the future of care. 
 
Martin Tivéus, CEO and president

Net sales and operating profit  
Net sales increased by 22.0 percent to SEK 4,488m (3,679) during the quarter. 
Adjusted for currency effects, net sales increased by 14.6 percent, corresponding to 
organic growth. Organic growth is mainly explained by increased net sales in Attendo 
Finland, primarily in nursing homes.  
Lease adjusted operating profit (EBITA) totalled SEK 346m (171) and the margin was 
7.7 percent (4.6). Profit increased significantly in Attendo Finland and decreased in 
Attendo Scandinavia.  
IFRS16-related effects on operating profit (EBITA) amounted to SEK 188m (124). In 
relation to the comparison quarter, IFRS16-related effects were positively affected by 
non-recurring items of about SEK 45m, mainly due to reversed previous impairments. 
Operating profit (EBITA) amounted to SEK 534m (295) and the operating margin to 
11.9 percent (8.0). Currency effects amounted to SEK 35m.  
Operating profit (EBIT) amounted to SEK 519m (281), corresponding to an operating 
margin (EBIT) of 11.6 percent (7.6). The change is explained by the same factors as 
described above. 
The total number of beds in operation in all homes at the end of the quarter was 
20,863 (21,082). The lower number of beds is explained by ended outsourced homes 
in Attendo Scandinavia. Occupancy in all homes was 86 percent (85) at the end of the 
quarter. The number of beds in own operations under construction was 352, 
distributed among 7 homes.

(10,707) during the period. Adjusted for currency 
effects, net sales increased by 14.1 percent, of which 
organic growth was 12.5 percent and net change due to 
acquisitions and divestments was 1.6 percent. Organic 
growth is primarily explained by increased net sales in 
Attendo Finland, mainly in nursing homes.

SEK 609m (191) and the margin was 4.7 percent (1.8).  
IFRS16-related effects on operating profit (EBITA)

and the operating margin to 8.2 percent (5.1). Currency 
effects amounted to SEK 60m.

July – September 2023  
Net sales in Attendo Scandinavia amounted to SEK 1,737m 
(1,670), an increase of 4.0 percent including currency 
effects and 3.7 percent excluding currency effects. The 
increase is explained by higher net sales in nursing homes. 
Net sales in home care and outsourced nursing homes 
decreased mainly as a result of ended operations. 
Occupancy in homes increased in relation to the 
comparison quarter and to the second quarter of 2023. 
The total number of sold beds increased slightly in 
relation to the comparison quarter. Sold beds in own 
operations increased, while sold beds in outsourcing 
decreased.  
Lease adjusted EBITA amounted to SEK 116m (150), 
corresponding to a margin of 6.7 percent (9.0). The lower 
profits are explained by the fact that price increases in 
2023 do not fully compensate for salary increases and the 
historically high cost inflation, as well as lower profits in 
home care and losses in the Danish operations. The profit 
trend in home care and in Denmark stabilised during the 
quarter. Profits improved in own nursing homes and own 
disabled care homes.  
IFRS16-related effects on operating profit amounted to  
SEK 48m (54). The comparative quarter was positively 
affected by non-recurring effects of approximately SEK 
8m.  
Operating profit (EBITA) amounted to SEK 164m (204), 
corresponding to an operating margin (EBITA) of 9.4 
percent (12.2).  
Beds and contracts 
During the quarter, Attendo opened 12 beds in own 
operations and started building a nursing home with 62 
beds. The number of beds under construction in own 
operations totalled 122 at the end of the quarter. A 
couple of outsourced operations ended during the 
quarter. Estimated annual sales for outsourcing contracts 
won but not yet started and outsourcing contracts lost but 
not yet ended are estimated to SEK -320m net. Contracts 
with estimated annual net sales of SEK 200m will be 
ended in the fourth quarter.

January – September 2023 
Net sales in Attendo Scandinavia totalled SEK 5,130m 
(4,908), an increase of 4.5 percent including currency 
effects and 4.3 percent excluding currency effects. The 
increase is mainly explained by higher net sales in nursing 
homes, which is primarily a result of more sold beds. Net 
sales in home care and outsourced nursing homes 
decreased. 
The number of beds sold and occupancy in homes 
increased in relation to the comparison period.  
Lease adjusted EBITA amounted to SEK 213m (299), 
corresponding to a margin of 4.2 percent (6.1). Profits 
decreased due to price increases in 2023 not 
compensating for the historically high cost inflation, and 
lower profits in home care and Denmark. Profits in own 
nursing homes increased as a result of more sold beds. 
IFRS16-related effects on operating profit totalled SEK

July – September 2023 
Net sales in Attendo Finland amounted to SEK 2,751m 
(2,009), corresponding to growth of 36.9 percent. 
Adjusted for currency effects, net sales increased by 23.7 
percent, corresponding to organic growth. The growth is 
explained by increased net sales mainly in nursing homes 
due to price increases. Total price increases amount to 
about 20 percent, which partly compensates for historical 
cost increases. Since the comparative quarter, Attendo 
has closed a number of homes due to staff shortages or 
occupancy problems. 
 
Occupancy was higher than in the comparison quarter and 
in the second quarter of 2023. 
 
Lease adjusted EBITA amounted to SEK 249m (37) and the 
margin was 9.1 percent (1.8). The increase in profits is 
primarily explained by higher price increases than cost 
increases in nursing homes.  
 
IFRS16-related effects on operating profit (EBITA) 
amounted to SEK 140m (69). The increase is explained by 
positive non-recurring effects of SEK 53m in the third 
quarter of 2023, mainly due to reversed previous 
impairments, and currency effects.  
 
 
 
 
Operating profit (EBITA) amounted to SEK 389m (106) and

Beds and contracts 
During the quarter, construction of two homes with a 
total of 56 beds started. The number of beds under 
construction in own operations at the end of the quarter 
totalled 230 beds. During the quarter, Attendo won an

January – September 2023 
Net sales in Attendo Finland amounted to SEK 7,735m 
(5,799), corresponding to a growth of 33.4 percent. 
Adjusted for currency effects, net sales increased by 22.4 
percent. The growth is explained by increased net sales 
mainly in nursing homes due to price increases, as well as 
previous acquisitions. Total price increases amount to 
approximately 17 percent. Since the comparison period, 
Attendo has discontinued a number of homes due to staff 
shortages or occupancy problems. 
Occupancy in nursing homes increased in relation to the 
comparison period.  
Lease adjusted EBITA amounted to SEK 453m (-56) and 
the margin was 5.9 percent (-1.0). The increase is 
primarily explained by higher price increases than cost 
increases in nursing homes and a positive contribution 
from acquisitions. Price increases in disabled care and 
social psychiatry do not fully compensate for the high cost 
increases.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
IFRS16-related effects on operating profit (EBITA)

Sustainability: 
SUSTAINABLE CARE 
Sustainability at Attendo 
Attendo works systematically and purposefully 
with sustainability. Every quarter, we report the 
latest key figures for our focus areas in order to 
report the results of our work. We also highlight 
important activities and progress in the business. 
 
Empowered employees: Strengthened 
organization for increased participation 
Attendo aims to be the leading employer for 
employees who want to make a difference in 
care.  
One of several key factors for employee 
satisfaction is proximity to the local manager and 
access to support in daily work. During the year, 
we are introducing a new organization with group 
managers at nursing homes in both business 
areas. The aim is to strengthen the local 
organization and improve support to the local 
unit managers. For employees, this means a more 
present leadership, greater participation and 
better communication. The group managers are 
given employer responsibility at section level 
where they are part of the operation. At the 
same time, they become new members of the 
local management team together with the local 
unit manager and support functions. By the end 
of the quarter, the new organization has been 
implemented in all major nursing homes in 
Finland and in about one third of Attendo’s own 
nursing homes in Scandinavia. 
Quality of life: Increased focus on 
relatives’ satisfaction 
Relatives' participation in and experience of care 
is central to Attendo's efforts to increase well-
being and quality of life for customers. We 
regularly measure and monitor relatives' 
propensity to recommend Attendo as a care 
provider. The latest available result is a relatives 
satisfaction score (rNPS) of 35 (scale from +100 to 
-100) for the group as a whole. The 
recommendation rate in Attendo Finland, the 
business area with the longest data history, has 
increased from 15 in 2019 to 44 in the latest 
survey (2023), with a continuously increasing 
level of engagement in the surveys. The surveys 
show that the key factors that influence relatives' 
willingness to recommend Attendo the most, are 
safety with the care services, the employees' 
availability and treatment, and the opportunity 
for dialog and transparency. Based on these 
insights, we conduct active work with a focus on 
education, leadership training and 
communication support with a special focus on 
relatives. The work is continuously developed 
based on the latest results. 
 
 
 
Attendo’s focus areas and ambitions 
Focus area Ambition 
Quality of life Attendo should create wellbeing and meaning in day-to-day life and be a leader in 
customer satisfaction. 
Value-adding care solutions Attendo should make reliable, innovative and cost-effective care available as a 
preferred partner to local authorities. 
Empowered employees Attendo should be a preferred employer that exhibits outstanding leadership and 
encourages personal growth and equal opportunities. 
Environment in mind Attendo should be a resource-efficient care provider on a path towards net zero 
greenhouse gas emissions. 
Responsible operations Attendo should be a reliable care provider that delivers values-driven care that is 
robust and transparent.

Quality audits and deviations

===== SIDA 13 =====

Attendo Interim report, January-September 2023  13 (35) 
 
Sustainability: 
SUSTAINABLE CARE 
Attendo has strict procedures for managing care 
deviations. This includes procedures for reporting, 
managing and following up deviations from internal 
guidelines or methods, as well as serious incidents 
that led to or risked leading to health and care 
injuries to individuals (under the Swedish Lex Sarah 
and Lex Maria statutes in Sweden).  
Attendo’s operations are supervised and 
comprehensively audited by national regulatory 
authorities, such as the Regional State 
Administrative Agency (AVI) in Finland and the 
Health and Social Care Inspectorate (IVO) in 
Sweden, as well as by contracting local authorities. 
As a leading care provider, Attendo attaches great 
importance to both learning from and transparency 
regarding reported deviations, various types of 
inspections and their outcomes.  
Procedures for self-reporting to and supervision by 
regulators and the classification of deviations and 
supervisory cases differ between Attendo's 
segments and markets. Attendo reports both cases 
of a serious nature (Sweden) and the number of 
official cases in progress (Finland). 
Scandinavia 
A total of 2 cases were reported in Q3 to IVO in 
Sweden according to Lex Sarah or Lex Maria. 
Finland  
A sum of 3 cases were opened by AVI in Finland 
during Q3 and 3 cases were closed. The total 
number of cases open was about 25 at the end of 
the quarter.

Other information
Acquisitions 
There were no acquisitions during the quarter. 
New management in Attendo Scandinavia 
Patrik Högberg has been appointed Business Area 
Manager for Attendo Scandinavia and new member of 
Attendo's Executive Management. Patrik comes from the 
role as CEO of the cash-in-transit company Loomis' 
operations in the UK and has previously held several 
senior positions in the private and public sectors. Patrik 
will take up the position in the beginning of November 
2023, at which time he will also become a member of 
Attendo's Executive Management. 
 
Number of shares  
The total number of shares is 161,386,592. Attendo holds 
453,697 treasury shares and the total number of shares 
outstanding as of 30 September 2023 was thus 
160,932,895.  
Number of employees  
The average number of employees in Q3 was 22,236 
(21,640). 
Related party transactions  
Transactions with related parties are described in the 
annual report. Related-party transactions take place on 
market terms. There were no significant transactions with 
related parties during the period. 
Parent company, Attendo AB (publ)  
The business of the parent company is to provide services 
to the subsidiaries and manage shares in subsidiaries. The 
company’s expenses relate mainly to executive salaries, 
directors’ fees and costs for external consultants.  
Net sales for the period of January–September amounted 
to SEK 13m (12), and were entirely related to services 
provided to subsidiaries. The loss for the period after net 
financial items was SEK -24m (-23). 
At the end of the period, cash and cash equivalents 
amounted to SEK 0 (0), shares in subsidiaries to  
SEK 6,494m (6,494), and non-restricted equity to  
SEK 6,748m (6,710).  
Seasonal and calendar effects  
Attendo’s profitability is affected by factors including 
seasonal variations, weekends and national public 
holidays. For Attendo, public holidays and weekends have 
a negative effect on profitability mainly due to wage 
compensation for unsocial working hours. For example, 
profitability is affected by Easter in either the first or 
second quarter, depending on the quarter in which Easter 
falls, while the first and fourth quarters are affected by 
the Christmas and New Year’s holidays.  
Roundings 
Note that roundings occur in text, charts and tables. 
 
Significant events after the 
reporting date 
There were no significant events after the reporting date.

Risks and uncertainties
As a large company with a mission that is essential to 
society – empowering every individual in our care – and 
many stakeholders, Attendo is exposed to various types 
of risks and uncertainties. The work to identify, analyse, 
assess and manage these risks and uncertainties is a key 
component of Attendo’s strategy and operations.  
Attendo takes a systematic approach to risk assessment 
and management as a central component of the strategic 
process, where risks in relation to the company’s capacity 
to meet its strategic and financial targets are assessed in a 
regular and structured manner. 
The risks that Attendo is exposed to can be divided into 
external risks – risks and uncertainty factors regarding the 
conditions for private companies to conduct care activities 
and which Attendo can only partially influence, such as 
political decisions, regulation and access to public funds, 
operational risks – factors and events that are directly 
linked to Attendo's operational activities, such as 
occupancy, pricing and access to competent employees as 
well as financial risks – risks relating to access to capital, 
currency, interest rates and liquidity. 
The main risks that could affect the company's ability to 
achieve its financial and strategic objectives in the short to 
medium term are a shortage of qualified staff, strained 
public finances having a negative impact on local decisions 
on care, and a continued high inflation rate and high 
interest rate environment. 
The risks and how Attendo manages them are described in 
greater detail in Attendo’s annual report (see the “Risks 
and risk management” section in the 2022 annual report, 
pages 57-60).

Auditor’s limited review report (translation of the Swedish original) 
To the Board of Attendo AB. reg. no. 559026-7885 
 
Introduction 
We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Attendo AB as of 30 September 2022 
and the nine-month period then ended. The board of directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and 
presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our 
responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review. 
 
Scope of Review 
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of 
Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity.  A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of 
persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is 
substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other 
generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain 
assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an aud it.  Accordingly, we do 
not express an audit opinion. 
Conclusion  
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, 
in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Group, and with 
the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Parent Company.

Attendo Interim report, January-September 2023  32 (35) 
 
Attendo’s operations  
Attendo is the leading private provider of care services 
in the Nordics. The company has operations in Sweden, 
Finland and Denmark. Attendo is the largest private care 
provider in Sweden and Finland. Attendo is a locally 
based company and has more than 700 units in 
operation in about 300 municipalities. The company has 
about 30,000 employees. With the purpose of 
empowering the individual, Attendo provides services 
within care for older people, care for people with 
disabilities, social psychiatry and care for individuals and 
relatives.  
Attendo provides services through two business areas, 
Attendo Scandinavia and Attendo Finland.  
Attendo provides care services through two contract 
models: 
• Own operations, where Attendo provides services 
in own controlled units/premises or provides home 
care in customer choice models. Attendo has own 
units within care for older people, people with 
disabilities, social psychiatry and care for individuals 
and relatives.  
• Outsourcing operations, where Attendo provides 
services in publicly controlled units/premises or 
provides home care services based on outsourcing 
contracts. Attendo has outsourced units for care for 
older people, care for people with disabilities and 
care for individuals and relatives.  
Local authorities (mainly municipalities) are usually the 
contracting authorities for a large majority of Attendo’s 
service offerings, but contract types and duration of 
contracts vary depending on the contract model and 
service offering. Own operations are normally based on 
framework agreements and outsourcing operations are 
based on outsourcing contracts, following a tender 
process. The contract period is typically 2-5 years.

Definitions of key data and alternative 
performance measures (APM) 
Explanations of financial performance measures 
Acquired growth 
(APM) 
The net between the increase in the 
company’s net sales from businesses and 
operations acquired during the past 12 
months and loss of net sales from businesses 
and operations divested during the past 12 
months in relation to the comparable 
period’s net sales. 
Adjusted earnings per share 
(APM) 
Profit or loss for the period attributable to 
the parent company shareholders excluding 
effects from amortization and impairment of 
acquisition related intangible assets, IFRS 16 
as well as items affecting comparability and 
related tax items divided by the number of 
outstanding shares after dilution. See the 
tables Adjusted earnings and adjusted 
earnings per share for more information. 
Capital employed 
Equity plus interest-bearing liabilities and 
provisions for post-employment benefits. See 
Note C34 Reconciliations of alternative 
performance measures in the 2022 annual 
report for a reconciliation of the 
performance measure on a full year basis. 
Cash and cash equivalents 
Cash and bank balances, short term 
investments and derivatives with a positive 
fair value.  
Earnings per share 
Profit or loss for the period attributable to 
the parent company shareholders divided by 
average shares outstanding. Calculated both 
before (basic) and after dilution. 
Equity/assets ratio 
Equity divided by total assets. 
Equity per share  
Equity attributable to the parent company 
shareholders divided by average shares 
outstanding. Calculated both before (basic) 
and after dilution. 
Free cash flow 
(APM) 
Free cash flow is a measure of the cash and 
cash equivalents the group generates in 
operating activities and investing activities. 
The performance measure is defined as 
operating cash flow after changes in working 
capital, cash flow from investments in and 
divestments of tangible and intangible 
assets, received/paid interest as well as 
interest expense for lease liabilities of real 
estate and repayment of lease liabilities 
according to IFRS 16. See the Consolidated 
cash flow statement for reconciliation and 
Note C34 Reconciliations of alternative 
performance measures in the 2022 annual 
report for a reconciliation of the 
performance measure on a full year basis. 
Items affecting comparability 
Items whose effects on profit are important 
to pay attention to when profit for the period 
is compared with earlier periods, such as 
significant impairment losses and other 
significant, non-recurring costs or income. 
Lease adjusted EBITA 
(APM) 
See the definition of operating profit (EBITA) 
below. Lease adjusted operating profit 
(EBITA) is operating profit according to the 
previous reporting standard IAS 17, i.e. 
excluding the effects of the implementation 
of IFRS 16. Car leases were reported as 
finance leases under the previous standard. 
Consequently, it is the effects of leases of 
real estate under IFRS 16 that differentiate 
operating profit from lease adjusted 
operating profit. See the tables Adjusted
