Interim report Q3: Strong demand across all divisions - substantial supply chain disruptions in latter half of September and continued higher logistics costs

July-September 2021

· Net sales increased to SEK 209 million (193). Adjusted for currency effects, growth was  

   9 percent.

· The EVSE share of net sales rose to 20 percent (10).

· Adjusted EBITA declined to SEK 25 million (47), corresponding to a margin of 12.0

   percent (24.2).

· Loss after tax amounted to SEK -32 million (13) and was charged with items affecting

   comparability of SEK 21 million and costs of SEK 24 million related to the refinancing.

· The company's shares were listed on Nasdaq Stockholm on 24 September 2021.

· In October CTEK announced that General Motors had selected the company as

   collaborator for Ultium charging stations for EVs.

"CTEK continued to note strong demand across all divisions in the third quarter, and EVSE sales doubled compared with last year, accounting for 20 percent of the Group's sales. We were not significantly impacted by the shortage of components and materials caused by the pandemic earlier in the year, even though this has gradually resulted in higher costs for the year. In the latter part of September, we experienced supply chain disruption, mainly in the Aftermarket division, which meant that ordered and scheduled deliveries could not be settled during the third quarter. Organic growth thus totaled 9 percent, with an adjusted EBITA margin of 12.0 percent. We see continued challenges and that the above-mentioned disruptions will affect our operations in the coming quarters as well", Jon Lind, President and CEO.

Today, November 10 at 09:00, CTEK will hold an audiocast in English. CTEK is represented by CEO Jon Lind and CFO Marcus Lorendal, who present the interim report and answer questions.
