Arjo interim report January-June 2018

“We continue to perform strongly as a standalone company and are now reporting positive growth for the second consecutive quarter. Net sales increased organically by 2.3% and we also reported improved EBITDA during the quarter. We enter the second half of the year with good confidence and will continue to build a profitable and sustainable Arjo.”, says Joacim Lindoff, President & CEO.

April-June 2018 in brief

  • Net sales increased 4.8% to SEK 1,986 M (1,894). Net sales rose organically by 2.3%.
  • Adjusted EBITDA rose to SEK 313 M (294).
  • Restructuring and integration costs amounted to SEK 15 M (15).
  • Profit after financial items amounted to SEK 121 M (125).
  • Earnings per share amounted to SEK 0.33 (0.34).
  • Cash flow from operations amounted to SEK 189 M (122). The cash conversion was 62.4% (43.5).
  • An exclusive partnership was entered into with Next Step Dynamics for the development of digital solutions for predicting and preventing injuries.
  • Key event after the end of the quarter: Acquisition of ReNu Medical.
  • Comparisons of gross margin, operating expenses and net financial items between the second quarter and the first six months of 2017 and 2018 do not provide fair presentation. All of the expenses for Arjo as an independent Group were not reflected in 2017 and, accordingly, the full-year figures for 2017 provide a more fair presentation as comparative figures.
