Despite this, we managed during the first quarter to match the delivery volume and achieve a better result than the outcome during the same period last year. Delivery volume for the quarter amounted to 9,200 tonnes. Revenue amounted to MSEK 641.3, which is approximately 10 percent higher than the first quarter previous year. Raw material prices have been higher than during the same period last year. The accounted operating profit of 54.1 MSEK (43.6) was affected by an accrual effect of -3.3 MSEK, the result of an exposed metal position of -3.7 MSEK, and the start-up of the Polish operations with -3.8 MSEK. This results in an operating result of 64.9 MSEK (50.3). The operating margin of 10.1 percent (8.7) should be compared to the target of at least 14 percent. Our mix of customers contributes to a good stability and reduces the impact of a weak construction sector and a delayed automotive elelectrification. We do not have direct exposure to the U.S. market but are indirectly affected by the ongoing trade war, as some of our customers export to the U.S. At the same time, we perceive that the market turbulence is creating new business opportunities, as new supply flows are emerging. It remains to be seen whether Europe will gain greater access to aluminum and whether increased costs within the U.S. will open up new business opportunities. We need to remain proactive in our market monitoring and maintain strong control over our risk exposure. Profitability and stability We aim at long-term development of attractive solutions including stability. Hence, our ambition is to avoid short-term profits and gradually reach the increased operating margin of 14 percent. To attain the objectives it takes satisfied customers, expanded businesses, optimization of our processes including price- and margin increased measures. As a step in this process we have previously communicated a modification of our organizational structure. The Polish business now operational ProfilGruppen are in a process of aquiring an extruding business in Poland that complement our current facilities and range. During the first quarter a subsidary has been established in Polen which rents the current facility. A production with approximately 80 people started in March. At this point around 20 customers has returned. This quarters result encompasses the start-up and running of operations. An acquisition is dependent on the reconstruction process to be completed and involves a more limited risk in relation to other means of maintain equivalent capacity and possibilities. The collaboration between both units has been working well with a great engagement and intrest from both parts. Poland is the fourth largest user of extruded aluminum profiles in Europe, and the market is more than four times the size of the Swedish market. The business is also well- positioned to deliver to the large German market Industry engagement In this time of external changes it is with pride and joy I can say that ProfilGruppen’s Head of Sales for Extrusions has been elected as Vice Chairman of the European Aluminium Extrusion division. This is a testimony to ProfilGruppen’s engagement in the industry. All these activities aim to further develop one of the market’s leading offerings in sustainability, delivery service, and quality. ===== SIDA 3 ===== *Definitions are presented on www.profilgruppen.se Interim report January 1 –March 31, 2025 ProfilGruppen AB (publ) Page 3 of 10 The use of alternative key ratios The purpose of using alternative key ratios and profit designations is to give the reader a fairer view of the operation’s financial development. To provide as transparent picture as possible, ProfilGruppen uses the term adjusted operating profit*. The adjusted operating profit* is the result of the operating activities. The metal cost in the adjusted operating profit is equal to the agreed cost in the customer contracts. The tables on sides 5-9 in this report are calculated in accordance with accounting principles given in the latest annual report where nothing else is noted. Turnover and deliveries in the first quarter The turnover for the Group in the first quarter of 2025 amounted to MSEK 641.3 (581.2), an increase of about 10 percent compared to the same period previous year. The delivery volumes were to 9,200 tonnes (9,200) of aluminum profiles. During the first quarter the Group manufactured 9,175 tonnes (8,800) of aluminium extrusions. First quarters result based on alternative principles* The adjusted operating profit amounted to MSEK 64.9 (50.3), which corresponded to an adjusted operating margin of 10.1 percent (8.7). The difference between adjusted operating profit and accounting operating profit is the realized result of metal position at risk MSEK -3.7, reversal of earlier altered allocation of metal cost MSEK -3.3 and result of the polish operations of MSEK 3.8. First quarters accounting result The operating profit for the first quarter of the year amounted to MSEK 54.1 (43.6). This is equivalent to an operating margin of 8.4 percent (7.5). The profit before tax amounted to MSEK 55.5 (34.6). Earnings per share totalled SEK 5.75 (3.43) (no dilution). Investments Investments amounted to MSEK 16.9 (15.2), excluding changes in right of use assets. The investments mainly consist of machinery and equipment of MSEK 9.4, and extrusion dies of MSEK 7.5. Financing and liquidity Cash flow from current operations amounted to MSEK 43.7 (44.6) before this year’s amortization of pandemic-related deferrals of collection to the amount of MSEK -27.5 (-9.2). The remaining debt of pandemic-related deferrals of collection amounts to MSEK 124. The corresponding cash-flow after investments amounted to MSEK 20.1 (30.6). The liquidity reserve as of March 31, 2025, amounted to MSEK 254.6 (305.3). The balance sheet total as of the end of the quarter was MSEK 1,464.7 (1,492.0). Net debt as of March 31, 2025, amounted to MSEK 66.6 (15.3) and net debt/EBITDA to 0.3 (0.1), regardless of whether accounting principles or alternative principles are used. ProfilGruppen’s target for net debt/EBITDA is < 2.0. ===== SIDA 4 ===== *Definitions are presented on www.profilgruppen.se Interim report January 1 –March 31, 2025 ProfilGruppen AB (publ) Page 4 of 10 The calculation of the net debt does not include pandemic- related deferrals of MSEK 124. If the deferrals were included in net debt the net debt/EBITDA amounts to 0.7. The debt for the deferrals will be amortized gradually in 2027 at the latest. The Board increases target for operating margin The facilities in ProfilGruppen have been maintained for many years and it has been shown that their lifespan exceeds the estimated economic lifespan. During the same time, the replacement value has risen sharply due to inflation. The effect of this development is that the calculative value of the facilities exceeds the accounting value. The consequence is that the reported return exceeds the return based on calculated values of assets, profit and equity. Calculational efforts indicate that the profit margin is rather half of the reported one, while the equity is almost double. To create room for reinvestments, the current level of profitability therefore continuously needs to be raised and hence the board increases the Group’s target for operating margin to at least 14 percent. Currency The Group has a loan in euros which amounted to MEUR 6.8 on the balance sheet date. Personnel The average number of employees in the Group during the quarter was 492 (521). The number of employees as of March 31, 2025, totalled 500 (522). As from March 1, ProfilGruppen puts around 80 people to work in a Polish extrusion business. Significant risks and uncertain factors The initiated acquisition process, as mentioned above, may lead to that the investments made do not yield the desired results, but the risks are currently very limited. Apart from this the company’s risks and risk management has not changed as described in the 2024 Annual Report. At the end of the year, the company had a metal position at risk of about MSEK 70 (-1). Outlook for 2025 ProfilGruppen does not provide a forecast.
