This corresponds to a total capital distribution of MSEK 24 353 (14 606) to shareholders, and excludes shares currently held by the company.
To facilitate a more efficient cash management, the total combined dividend is proposed to be paid in two equal installments of SEK 2.50 each, the first with record date April 30, 2026, and the second with record date October 20, 2026.
Personnel stock option programThe Board of Directors will propose to the Annual General Meeting a similar performance-based long-term incentive program as in the previous years. For Group Management and division presidents, participation in the plan will require own investment in Atlas Copco AB shares. The details of the proposal will be communicated in connection with the Notice of the Annual General Meeting.

Review of the fourth quarter
Market developmentThe overall demand for Atlas Copco Group's equipment and services increased compared to the previous year. Order volumes for both service and equipment increased, even if the demand for equipment was mixed.
Orders for industrial compressors increased, and solid order growth was achieved for gas and process compressors. The order intake for vacuum equipment increased notably, supported by increased demand from both the semiconductor and the general industries. Orders for industrial assembly equipment and vision solutions, on the other hand, decreased somewhat due to weaker demand from the automotive industry. The order intake for power equipment, such as portable compressors, generators, and pumps, weakened.

19.5% (21.7). Corporate income tax amounted to MSEK -1 711
(-2 181), corresponding to an effective tax rate of 20.5% (21.9). The lower effective tax rate is mainly due to utilization of R&D and similar tax benefits. Profit for the period was MSEK 6 627 (7 800). Basic and diluted earnings per share were SEK 1.36 (1.60) and SEK
1.36 (1.60), respectively.

financial items and taxes paid amounted to MSEK -2 543 (-1 867). Working capital decreased by MSEK 649 (decrease of 2 305). The main reason for the difference compared to the previous year was a smaller decrease of inventories. Net investments in rental equipment were MSEK -497 (-596), and in property, plant and equipment MSEK -1 038 (-1 067).
Operating cash flow (an important internal KPI, but not a measurement defined in IFRS Accounting Standards, and hence defined on page 14) reached MSEK 6 777 (9 915).

The overall demand for equipment such as portable compressors, generators, and pumps weakened, and the order intake decreased compared to the previous year and sequentially. The lower order volumes compared to the previous year were mainly due to lower order intake for portable compressors and industrial pumps.
Year-on-year, the order intake decreased in all regions except Europe, where the order intake increased.
Specialty rental AcquisitionsThe following acquisitions were closed in the quarter:
CRI-MAN S.p.A., an Italian industrial pump manufacturer with 85 employees and revenues of approximately MSEK 342 in 2024.
National Tank & Equipment, LLC, an American specialty rental company with 349 employees and revenues of approximately BSEK 2.1 in 2024.
Revenues reached MSEK 7 628 (7 957), corresponding to an organic decrease of 4%.
The operating profit decreased 14% to MSEK 1 223 (1 415), corresponding to a margin of 16.0% (17.8). The main explanations for the lower margin were a negative currency effect, lower utilization of the rental fleet, higher functional costs in relation to sales, and increased costs related to trade tariffs. Acquisitions only had a marginal dilutive effect on the margin. Return on capital employed (last 12 months) was 14% (18).
Orders, revenues, and operating profit marginThe demand for the specialty rental business decreased somewhat compared to the previous year, but due to contributions from acquisitions, the order intake increased significantly. Sequentially, the organic orders remained unchanged.
Geographically, compared to the previous year, the order intake increased in the Americas but decreased in Europe and Asia.
ServiceOrders for service increased, driven by increased demand in most regions.
InnovationA new range of portable chopper pumps was introduced, the PAX F44 & PAX F66. These pumps are designed to withstand demanding applications and deliver high pumping efficiency

Risks, risk management and factors of uncertainty
Atlas Copco Group's global and diversified business is active within many customer segments and results in a variety of risks and opportunities geographically and operationally. Thus, the ability to identify, analyze and manage risks is crucial for effective governance and control of the
business. The aim is to meet the Group's goals with a high awareness of risks and well-managed risk taking. Atlas Copco Group sees the benefits of an efficient risk management both from risk reduction and business opportunity perspectives, which can lead to good business growth.
Risks in Atlas Copco Group are identified in a 360-degree spectrum, meaning that both internal, and external exposures are assessed, including today's circumstances and future changes. The Group's risk management approach follows the decentralized structure of Atlas Copco Group. Risks are analyzed and addressed in an integrated way. Local companies are responsible for their own risk management, which is monitored and followed up regularly at for example local business board meetings. Group functions responsible for legal, insurance, human resources, compliance, sustainability, treasury, tax, controlling and accounting provide policies, guidelines and instructions regarding risk management.
Risk areas include compliance risks, external exposure risks, including pandemics, operational risks and strategic risks. These risk areas can impact the business negatively both in the long and short term, but often also create business opportunities if managed well. Examples of risks and how they are handled is described below.
Market risks
The demand for Atlas Copco Group's equipment and services is affected by changes in the customers' investment and production levels. A general economic downturn, geopolitical tensions, pandemics, changes in trade
agreements, trade sanctions, tariffs, a widespread financial crisis and other macroeconomic disturbances may, directly or indirectly, affect the Group negatively both in terms of revenues and profitability. However, the Group's sales are well diversified with customers in many industries and countries around the world, which mitigates the risk.
Financial risks
Atlas Copco Group is subject to currency risks, funding risks, interest rate risks, tax risks, and other financial risks. In line with the overall goals with respect to growth, return on capital, and protecting creditors, Atlas Copco Group has adopted a policy to control the financial risks to which the Group is exposed. A financial risk management committee meets regularly to manage and follow up financial risks, in line with the policy.
Production risks
A large part of the components used in production are sourced from sub-suppliers. The availability is dependent on the sub-suppliers and if they have interruptions or lack capacity, this may adversely affect production. To minimize these risks, Atlas Copco Group has established a global network of sub-suppliers, which means that in most cases there are more than one sub-supplier that can provide a certain component. Atlas Copco Group is also directly and indirectly exposed to raw material prices. Cost increases for raw materials and components often coincide with strong end-customer demand and can partly be compensated for by increased sales prices.
Acquisitions
Atlas Copco Group has the ambition to grow all its business areas, primarily through organic growth, supplemented by selected acquisitions. The integration of acquired businesses is a difficult process and it is not certain that every integration will be successful. Therefore, costs related to acquisitions can be higher and/or synergies can take longer to materialize than anticipated.
For more information on Atlas Copco Group's risk management process and further descriptions of risks and how they are handled, see the Annual Report 2024.

In addition to the factors explicitly discussed, other factors could have a material effect on the actual outcome. Such factors include, but are not limited to, general business conditions, fluctuations in exchange rates and interest rates, political developments, the impact of competing products and their pricing, product development, commercialization and technological difficulties, interruptions in supply, and major customer credit losses.
