SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE QUARTER

COMMENTS FROM THE CEO:

Dynavox Group delivered solid year-on-year revenue growth and more than doubled earnings in the second quarter. Growth in the quarter was broad-based across geographies and product groups, reflecting continued demand for our assistive communication solutions and the underlying strength of the business.

Underlying market demand continues to be strong across geographies and product groups, with a 16% revenue growth in local currencies. Revenue in North America benefitted partly from delayed Q1 orders. However, this positive effect was offset by overall more drawn-out prescription processes compared to before.

In Europe, we continued to strengthen our local presence and commercial execution. The integration of recently acquired businesses in Germany, France and Italy is progressing, and we are taking the final steps in the transition to our new unified ERP system. The full underlying momentum from these initiatives is not yet visible in the financials, but they are important building blocks for more efficient and scalable growth over time.

Operating profit increased by 137% in the quarter with an EBIT margin reaching 15.7%, as we see the benefits of a more streamlined and digitized operating platform, and the non-recurring costs that have made this possible are now largely behind us. Cash flow increased by 167% and earnings per share increased by 155%, illustrating the operating leverage in the business as we continue to scale.

During the quarter, we also filed a U.S. lawsuit against AbleNet, Inc. Our objective is to protect intellectual property and to address alleged practices that, in our view, risk confusion around delivery, support and reimbursement of assistive communication technology. Further information about the background to the claim is available at https://whywearesuingablenet.com/.

Another important milestone was the publication of the latest and most comprehensive health economic study to date, Exploring the Benefits of Assistive Communication, conducted in our largest market, the U.S. The findings confirm the same pattern seen in previous studies in Sweden and Germany: comprehensive assistive communication solutions such as ours can improve quality of life by 65% and generate a financial return to society of more than three times the investment. These outcomes further strengthen our conviction in the long-term value and potential of the market we serve.

The macroeconomic and geopolitical environment remains volatile. While there have been no decisions, proposals or changes to reimbursement policies in any of our main markets, including the U.S., we continue to navigate complexity and bureaucracy in reimbursement processes. This is a recurring feature of our markets, but it was a headwind in the quarter. We are also seeing increases in certain component costs and we will focus on mitigating the consequences through increased reimbursement levels and other measures going forward.

We remain confident in the long-term fundamentals of our market. The need for assistive communication solutions remains severely underserved and underpenetrated, and we continue to focus on improving our go-to-market model, strengthening operational efficiency and scaling the business in a disciplined way.

Our long-term financial targets remain unchanged: average annual revenue growth of 20% adjusted for currency effects and an EBIT margin reaching and exceeding 15%. While currency effects and the broader macroeconomic environment may create volatility, Dynavox Group is well positioned to continue creating sustainable long-term value while advancing our mission to provide life-changing solutions to those who need them most.
