CEO’s Comment
CellaVision started the year with an unforeseen inventory 
adjustment from our main distribution partner in EMEA. This 
resulted in significant negative growth up against a tough 
comparative quarter last year and may also affect the second 
quarter. Americas continued its strong momentum showing double-
digit organic growth and APAC showed positive development 
compared to the corresponding quarter last year.
We see that the demand for digital cell morphology solutions 
remains strong and continues to grow over time. Therefore, we 
maintain a confident but measured outlook on our ability to drive 
growth and deliver long-term value across all our markets.
Our business is inherently subject to quarterly fluctuations, primarily 
driven by order-based sales through our partners. These are 
typically followed by a time lag before full system installation is 
completed at laboratories. 
The First Quarter in Brief
Net sales for the Group reached SEK 166 m (195), representing  
-7 percent organic growth compared to the same quarter last year. 
EBITDA amounted to SEK 40 m (66), corresponding to an EBITDA 
margin of 24 percent (34), and the gross margin amounted to  
68 percent (70).
Cash flow from operating activities was strong, supported by 
favorable changes in working capital. It increased to SEK 62 m (61), 
contributing to a total cash flow of SEK 42 m (37) for the quarter. 
Our financial position remains robust.
Sales in the Americas increased by 2 percent, reaching SEK 79 m 
(78), compared to the corresponding quarter of 2025. Adjusted for 
negative currency effects of 12 percent, sales increased organically 
by 13 percent. The strong performance was driven by continued 
demand for large instruments and the sustained adoption of our 
automated digital morphology solutions among larger laboratories. 
At the same time, sales of smaller instruments declined because of 
high inventory levels from 2025.
In EMEA, sales decreased by 32 percent to SEK 65 m (96), compared 
to a strong first quarter of 2025. Adjusted for negative currency 
effects of 6 percent, sales decreased organically by 26 percent. 
The decline is mainly related to temporary reduction in excessive 
inventory levels at our largest regional distribution partner, 
which significantly impacted on the order intake. Further, some 
tender delays appear in certain European countries because of 
budget considerations within public healthcare. Reagent sales 
demonstrated a consistent performance and were on par with the 
corresponding quarter last year.
Sales in APAC increased by 4 percent to SEK 22 m (21), compared 
to the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Adjusted for 
negative currency effects of 5 percent, sales increased organically 
by 10 percent. The overall growth and underlying demand remained 
positive, supported by improvements in product mix and market 
presence. South Asia Pacific continued to deliver stable performance 
with sustained traction in key markets such as Thailand and 
Australia. The reagent business in APAC increased more than twofold 
compared to the corresponding quarter last year.
Progress on Strategic Direction
The quarter has seen significant progress in executing on our 
strategic priorities within research and development, as CellaVision 
continues to strengthen its position as a trusted partner and a long-
term innovator in advanced digital cell morphology and microscopy. 
Key milestones achieved during the period include:
On March 11, the new CellaVision® Bone Marrow Aspirate (BMA) 
Application was launched in EMEA after having obtained its CE 
mark at the end of 2025. CellaVision is now extending its digital 
cell morphology platform into bone marrow aspirate analysis. 
The BMA Application provides laboratories with a reliable and 
advanced solution for automating, standardizing, and simplifying 
the morphological analysis of bone marrow aspirates. Following 
the joint launch activities with Sysmex Corporation in EMEA, initial 
market reactions, albeit being in the early phase have been very 
positive. We expect that revenue related to the BMA Application will 
pick up in the second half of the year. CellaVision also submitted 
the BMA Application to the FDA, with the aim of obtaining 510(k) 
clearance to commercialize the product in the U.S.
In addition, the upgraded software version for CellaVision’s 
hematology instruments was launched globally, introducing a 
more modern, user-friendly interface with enhanced functionalities 
designed to improve laboratory workflows. For newer DI-60 
systems, the upgrade also strengthens integration with the Sysmex 
SP-50™ smearing and staining device and delivers a significant 
speed improvement.
The development of Fourier Ptychographic Microscopy (FPM) 
continues to progress well, supporting the next generation of 
hematology solutions and reinforcing our position in advanced 
diagnostics. Furthermore, evaluations support our belief and pave 
the way for CellaVision to enter adjacent fields such as pathology 
and cytology, where FPM shows clear potential compared to 
conventional technologies.
Finally, I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to our 
employees, partners, and stakeholders for your continued 
commitment, trust, and support. Together, we drive innovation 
and create lasting value by advancing the digital transformation of 
microscopy in hematology laboratories worldwide.

Sales, Earnings and Investments
Net Sales and Currency Effects
Net sales for the first quarter decreased to SEK 166 m (195), a 
decrease of 15 percent compared to the corresponding quarter last 
year. CellaVision invoices most of the sales in Euros and US dollars, 
which means that exchange rate fluctuations have an impact on 
the company’s net sales and earnings. Net sales in the Americas 
are roughly evenly split between Euros and US dollars, whereas 
Euro is the predominant currency for net sales in both EMEA and 
APAC. Adjusted for negative currency effects of 8 percent, net sales 
decreased organically by 7 percent compared to the corresponding 
quarter in 2025.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit for the first quarter decreased by 17 percent to SEK 114 m 
(137), corresponding to a gross margin of 68 percent (70).
The gross margin is influenced by factors such as purchase prices 
for materials and components, sales mix, amortization of capitalized 
development expenses, inventory adjustments, and currency effects.
As a result of the launches of the CellaVision® Bone Marrow Aspirate 
(BMA) Application and the upgraded Digital Cell Morphology Software, 
amortization of capitalized development expenses increased from 
the corresponding quarter last year and amounted to SEK 3 m (2).
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the first quarter increased by 7 percent to 
SEK 85 m (80), compared to the same quarter last year.
Sales and marketing expenses as well as administration expenses 
have been kept on same levels as last year. CellaVision continues to 
invest in research and development in alignment with its long-term 
product development strategy. Total research and development 
expenses before capitalization amounted to SEK 41 million (43) in the 
first quarter. Capitalized expenses related to development projects 
decreased to SEK 12 million (18), primarily driven by lower level of 
expenditures and reduced hardware purchases compared to the 
same quarter last year. This situation reflects the normal fluctuations 
throughout different maturity stages of ongoing projects. Currently, a 
larger proportion of the development organization is working on early-
stage projects. As a result, research and development costs increased 
in the first quarter to SEK 30 million (25).
EBITDA and EBITDA Margin
EBITDA for the first quarter decreased to SEK 40 m (66), 
corresponding to an EBITDA margin of 24 percent (34). EBITDA 
was primarily impacted by reduced net sales, which resulted in 
a lower gross profit, as well as a decrease in the capitalization of 
development expenses. 
Net Financial Items
As of Mars 31st, 2026, interest-bearing liabilities in the form of bank 
loans amounted to SEK 3 m (5). Interest expenses related to bank 
loans for the first quarter were also below SEK 100 k, like the same 
quarter last year.

Investments
CellaVision continuously capitalizes expenses related to product 
development. During the quarter, capitalized development expenses 
amounted to SEK 12 m (18). The lower capitalization is mainly 
attributable to lower expenditure levels and reduced hardware 
purchases compared with the corresponding quarter last year.
The majority of the capitalized expenses relate to the development 
of instruments and software applications.
Cash Flow
At the end of the quarter, cash and cash equivalents increased to 
SEK 230 m (182). In addition, CellaVision has an unutilized overdraft 
facility of SEK 30 m (30).
Cash flow from operating activities increased to SEK 62 m (61) in the 
first quarter of 2026. The decreased accounts receivable, as a result 
of lower sales, contributed positively to cash flow.
Cash flow from investing activities for the quarter amounted to  
SEK -17 m (-21) and was, as in the corresponding period last 
year, mainly related to capitalized expenses for research and 
development.
Cash flow from financing activities for the quarter amounted to  
SEK -4 m (-3).
The total cash flow for the quarter amounted to SEK 42 m (37).
Parent Company
Apart from the manufacturing of reagents, the group is in all 
material aspects represented by the operations in the parent 
company. The comments on the Group’s result and financial 
position also refer to the parent company.
Net sales for the first quarter decreased by 18 percent to SEK 123 m 
(149). Gross profit amounted to SEK 95 m (117). Research and 
development costs amounted to SEK 39 m (41), with capitalization 
of development costs carried out at Group level. Profit after financial 
items amounted to SEK 16 m (32).
No significant investments were made in non-current assets during the 
quarter. Financial assets primarily related to shares in subsidiaries. At 
the end of the quarter cash and cash equivalents increased to  
SEK 210 m (165). The company had no interest-bearing debt.

Development in the Geographical Markets
Americas: SEK 79 m (78) 
Sales in the Americas increased by 2 percent, reaching SEK 79 m 
(78), compared to the corresponding quarter of 2025. Adjusted for 
negative currency effects of 12 percent, sales increased organically 
by 13 percent. The strong performance was driven by continued 
demand for large instruments and reflects sustained adoption of 
automated digital morphology solutions among larger laboratories. 
Momentum can be seen particularly within integrated health 
networks seeking to improve efficiency and throughput.
Sales of smaller instruments declined during the quarter, primarily 
due to elevated inventory levels at a key distribution partner, 
following precautionary purchases made in 2025 related to tariff 
uncertainties. 
To support the development in sales of smaller instruments, 
additional targeted commercial initiatives have been launched. This 
included expanded distribution reach, focused marketing activities, 
and increased investment in customer training, particularly in Latin 
America and other emerging markets.
EMEA: SEK 65 m (96)
Sales in the EMEA region decreased by 32 percent to SEK 65 m (96), 
compared to a strong first quarter of 2025. Adjusted for negative 
currency effects of 6 percent, sales decreased organically by  
26 percent. The decline is mainly related to temporary reduction in 
excessive inventory levels at our largest distribution partner, which 
significantly impacted on the order intake and may also affect the 
second quarter. Also, some tender delays appear in certain European 
countries because of budget considerations within public healthcare.  
Despite the decline, the underlying demand for digital morphology 
solutions remains solid. The growing installed base and continued 
customer interest provide a stable foundation for future growth.
Reagent sales in the region remained consistent and were in 
line with the corresponding quarter last year. EMEA continues to 
represent a significant share of the global reagent business.
To support a recovery in sales momentum, the company is 
strengthening collaboration with partner organizations through joint 
commercial initiatives across key markets. These efforts are further 
enhanced by the recently launched CellaVision® Bone Marrow 
Aspirate Application and the upgrade of the Digital Cell Morphology 
Software to the DI-60 instruments. This is expected to support 
customer engagement and pipeline development.
APAC: SEK 22 m (21)
Sales in the APAC region increased by 4 percent to SEK 22 m (21), 
compared to the corresponding quarter of the previous year. 
Adjusted for negative currency effects of 5 percent, sales increased 
organically by 10 percent. The overall growth and underlying 
demand remained positive, supported by improvements in product 
mix and market presence. 
South Asia Pacific continued to deliver stable performance, with 
sustained traction in key markets such as Thailand and Australia. 
This reflects continued execution of targeted commercial initiatives 
and strengthened collaboration with distribution partners.
At the same time, the reagents business increased more than 
twofold compared to the corresponding quarter last year. Growth 
was observed across multiple sub-regions, including more mature 
and competitive markets such as Japan and Australia. This reflects 
our ongoing efforts to position our offering as an integrated 
workflow solution, increasingly embedded in partners’ value 
propositions. The situation in the Middle East negatively impacted 
on reagent sales during the quarter, primarily due to delivery 
disruptions.

Our vision is to elevate healthcare through 
the evolution of microscopy. By devoting 
considerable resources to research and 
development, we continue to push the 
boundaries of innovation and strengthen our 
leadership in digital cell morphology, thereby 
improving the quality of care for patients 
worldwide.
On March 11, the CellaVision® Bone Marrow 
Aspirate (BMA) Application was launched in the 
EMEA region, extending the company’s digital 
cell morphology platform to include advanced 
bone marrow aspirate analysis. The application 
received CE marking as a Class C product 
under the European Union In Vitro Diagnostic 
Regulation (EU IVDR) on December 8, 2025. 
CellaVision collaborates with Sysmex Corporation 
as a distribution partner, leveraging strong and 
well-established relationships with hospitals and 
reference laboratories across the region. 
During the quarter, we also submitted the BMA 
Application to the FDA, with the aim of obtaining 
510(k) clearance to commercialize the product 
in the U.S.
Bone marrow aspirate examination is central to 
the diagnosis and monitoring of blood cancer 
and other serious blood disorders. The process 
is typically manual, time-consuming, and highly 
dependent on specialized expertise. The BMA 
Application supports laboratories in automating, 
standardizing, and streamlining morphological 
assessment through digitalization, and therefore 
improving consistency and efficiency.
In parallel, the upgraded software version for 
CellaVision’s hematology instruments has been 
launched globally. The Digital Cell Morphology 
Software introduces a modern, user-friendly 
interface and enhanced functionality, designed 
to improve workflow efficiency in laboratories. 
For newer DI-60 systems, the upgrade also 
strengthens integration with Sysmex SP-50™ 
smearing and staining device and delivers a 
significant speed improvement.
The development of Fourier Ptychographic 
Microscopy (FPM) continues to progress well, 
supporting future generations of hematology 
solutions and reinforcing our leading position 
in advanced diagnostics. The technology is 
also being evaluated in adjacent fields such as 
pathology and cytology, where it shows clear 
potential compared to conventional methods.
Two patented innovations related to staining 
reagents and their applications expired after 
20 years in force. At the same time, additional 
patents related to FPM were granted, expanding 
our portfolio’s coverage in this area. At the end 
of the period, CellaVision’s patent portfolio 
comprised 24 patented innovations and  
122 granted patents.

Total tangible fixed assets 122,345 112,307
The tangible fixed assets amounted to SEK 122,345 thousand on the balance sheet date. 
The majority of the right of use assets consists of leases for office premises. For all leases for 
which the Group is lessee (which are not short term leases or low value assets), the Group 
recognizes a right of use asset and a lease liability.  
                                                                                                                                                                            
When valuating the right of use asset, the acquisition method is used, i.e the right of use 
asset is calculated at acquisition cost, adjusted for any revaluation of the lease liability less 
depreciation.  
 
The right of use asset is reported as a tangible fixed asset, while leasing liability is reported 
separately in the Group’s statement of financial position as long-term debt, interest-bearing 
and short-term debt, interest-bearing.

The company presents certain financial measures in the interim 
report which are not defined according to IFRS. The financial 
metrics are used by the company’s management to evaluate 
relevant trends, and the company believes that they can provide 
valuable supplementary information to investors. CellaVision’s 
definitions of these measures may differ from other companies’ 
definitions of the same terms. These financial measures 
should therefore be seen as a supplement rather than as a 
replacement for measures defined according to IFRS.

and which are not mentioned elsewhere in the interim report 
are presented below. Reconciliation of these measures is shown 
in the tables to the left.

About us
CellaVision is an innovative, global medical technology company that 
develops and sells its own leading solutions for routine analysis of 
blood and other body fluids in health care services. These analyses 
play a vital role in swift and accurate disease diagnoses, particularly 
in cases of infections and serious cancer diseases. The products 
replace manual laboratory work, and secure and support effective 
workflows and skills development within and between hospitals. 
The company has leading-edge expertise in sample preparation, 
image analysis, artificial intelligence and automated microscopy. 
Sales are via global partners with support from the parent company 
in Lund, Sweden and by the company’s 13 local market support 
organizations covering more than 40 countries.
Our Strategic Ambition: The Power of Focus
Our strategic ambition is to digitalize and improve microscopy 
workflows to provide diagnostic certainty in the medical labs of the 
world. Our strategy is supported by our organization, processes and 
culture. The strategy rests on five strategic pillars: 
1. Maximize our leading position in large laboratories
2. Accelerate the worldwide adoption of the DC-1
3. Accelerate our global leadership in reagents
4. Expand into specialized microscopy analyses
5. Explore new areas of analytics with innovation
Financial Ambition
CellaVision’s objective is to create a global standard for digital 
microscopy. The objective is broken down in two important financial 
targets:
• Sales growth 
Increase sales over an economic cycle by an average of around  
15 percent per year.
• Profitability  
The EBITDA margin is to exceed 30 percent over an economic 
cycle.
Our Sustainability Efforts
CellaVision integrates sustainability at the core of its strategy by 
contributing to improved global healthcare outcomes, responsible 
innovation, ethical business practices, and fair working conditions.
