CEO Comments

Positioned for profitable growth

The fourth quarter of 2019 continued with a lower market activity in our main market. Given the weak market during the second half of the year, Adapteo delivers a satisfying performance driven by focused and targeted cost control and performance management. We present a stable profit and further strengthen our market position through our intensified focus on our commercial- and operational excellence programmes. Rental sales amounted EUR 35.1 (34.9) million, corresponding to an increase of 2% in constant currencies. Comparable EBITDA was flat at EUR 20.6 (20.6) million during the fourth quarter, with an increased margin to 41.6% (37.0%). Average rent per square metre amounted to EUR 159 (156). Free cash flow increased to EUR 36.5 million (11.0) during the year, which underlines the discretionary nature of our growth capex.

Throughout the year, we have seen a materially lower tender activity in the Swedish public sector, which impacted our revenues during the second half of the year, with effects also on coming quarters. The development is a result of the uncertainty related to the lack of government during the period when municipalities plan their budgets for the coming year, affecting the market activity in the public sector during our peak season. The market activity in the second half of 2019 was further affected by cost reduction initiatives among Swedish municipalities. The private sector in Sweden still shows favourable demand, albeit with longer sales cycles.

Long-term needs intact

Although we saw a lower market activity in 2019, the needs in the public sector remains and our long-term view of the favorable market development stays unchanged. An old building stock with substantial renovation needs, urbanization, demographic changes, growing number of pupils in school and children in day care centres, and a constantly growing elderly population are all examples of the primary market drivers that are expected to generate persistent demand for our solutions, today and tomorrow.

Our view of the long-term needs in the public sector is reflected in a report by Sveriges Kommuner och Regioner (SKR) in November 2019, stating that until year 2022, the Swedish municipalities need to build 730 daycare centres, 390 schools, 35 upper secondary schools and 370 group and retirement homes, together with 150 elderly care homes, in order to fulfil the increasing need for space. Simultaneously, we see a stronger penetration of prefabricated buildings and adaptable space solutions. This brings comfort in our mid-term market growth projections.

Operational Excellence

We continue our improvements in Business Area Permanent Space with a dedicated focus on LEAN production, direct material sourcing, standardisation of product structures, improvements in procurement processes and organisational efficiency measures. The initiatives have delivered improvements in our manufacturing network, as well as extracted sourcing related savings. Within our Business Area Rental Space, we concentrate on further strengthening our assembly operations execution by refining our tools and systems, as well as driving performance management.

The integration of the Nordic Modular Group acquisition is almost completed, with total annual synergies in the range of EUR three to four million to be entirely realised in 2020.

Commercial Excellence

Our commercial excellence program is built on five pillars – commercial offering optimisation, pricing excellence, sales force effectiveness, sales digitalisation and brand equity growth. An integral part of our commercial offering optimisation is to refine and sharpen our solution portfolio. In Finland, we took the next step in our fleet renewal initiative during the quarter by phasing out and replacing older module systems with the premium C90 solution. This has resulted in a write-down of EUR 9 million in the fourth quarter 2019, without impacts on EBITDA earnings and cash flow, but negative impacts on net profit and total assets. The initiative will generate higher future rental income and strengthen our long-term competitiveness.

We will continue to penetrate our present customer segments, as well as to expand into new ones. Expansion within elderly care, healthcare, social care are all examples on what is within our expansion scope. With our broad and premium offering, we are in a strong position to grow within these customer segments.

By working close to our current and prospective customers, as well as leveraging our extensive business-, customer- and user data sets, we aim to strengthen our relevance in the market, as well as to continue to develop our foundation for valuable partnerships and collaborations to become the most customer-centric company in the industry. I am looking forward to continuing our journey towards our full potential as an independent company.

Market outlook

Adapteo’s business operations are dependent on the development of the rental and sales markets. Overall, the company estimates that the demand for modular space solutions will be supported by structural market drivers such as an ageing building stock, urbanisation, demographic changes as well as the increasing need for social infrastructure due to a growing number of children and elderly people. The mid-term market outlook remains positive for both Business Areas, with strong underlying needs and low cyclicality driving the demand.

The rental market is expected to, over time, grow by over 10 per cent in Finland and Denmark and by 5 to 10 per cent in Sweden, Norway and Germany. In the Business Area Permanent Space, the total market is expected to grow by 5 to 10 per cent (including residential customer segment), and Adapteo’s core sales market (mainly social infrastructure and office customer segments) is expected to grow by over 10 per cent.

October-December 2019

Adapteo’s net sales for the fourth quarter decreased by 11% to EUR 49.6 (55.5 Oct-Dec 2018) million, mainly due to a decrease in external sales of new modules. In constant currencies, the net sales decreased by 9% compared to the corresponding period last year. Rental sales increased by 2% in constant currencies. In a majority of markets, high return flows and a surplus of available modules created price pressure, especially in public tendering. In Sweden, public market activity was lower than usual with the number of new public tenders being very low during the last quarter of 2019. Many municipalities have experienced tight financial conditions. In Finland and Denmark, public market activity for new rentals was seasonally low during the last quarter of the year, and market activity during the second half of the year was overall in line with 2018. Due to lower demand for new rentals, Adapteo’s fleet has grown at a lower pace than in previous years, producing a slower growth in rental sales.

Utilisation rate of the total fleet was 83% and average rent per square meter increased to EUR 159 from EUR 156 in the previous year. Revenue from assembly and other services grew by 14%, mainly driven by increased customer demand for customization. External sales of new modules decreased from the previous year.

January-December 2019

Adapteo’s net sales for January-December decreased by 2% to EUR 216.2 (220.6 Jan-Dec 2018) million, mainly due to a decrease in external sales of new modules. In constant currencies, net sales were unchanged compared to last year. Rental sales increased by 5% in constant currencies. In Sweden, the private market remained stable, but the public market activity was lower than usual with the number of new public tenders being historically low. In Finland, the utilisation rate and prices per square meter remained stable, but public market activity for new rentals was lower than usual during the second and fourth quarter of the year. In Denmark, net sales decreased mainly due to low assembly and disassembly activity during the first half of the year, whereas there was a large delivery and several other projects during 2018. In Germany, net sales decreased in comparison with last year despite a strong first quarter with successful BAUMA fair sales.

Utilisation rate of the total fleet was 84% and average rent per square meter declined from EUR 163 in the previous year to EUR 159.

Result, pro forma

October-December 2019

Adapteo’s comparable EBITDA for the fourth quarter was at the previous year’s level of EUR 20.6 (20.6 OctDec 2018) million. The comparable EBITDA margin increased to 41.6% (37.0%).

Depreciation, amortisation and impairment on property, plant and equipment (PPE) and intangibles totalled EUR -23.5 (-10.6) million during the fourth quarter. The main factor explaining the increase was a one-off EUR -8.7 million write-down of old modules to better reflect current market demand.

Operating profit (EBIT) amounted to EUR –3.9 (5.6) million. Operating profit included items affecting comparability of EUR 1.0 (4.3) million. EUR 0.7 million were expenses related to integration of Nordic Modular Group (NMG) and EUR 0.3 million were restructuring costs related to the NMG. During the comparison period, items affecting comparability included costs for preparing for the public listing of Adapteo of EUR 1.3 million.

Net financial expenses were EUR -1.5 (-1.1) million as a result of new refinancing arrangements and the acquisition of NMG. Adapteo refinanced all the debts transferred in the demerger with a new term loan of EUR 400 million drawn on 1 July 2019. NMG was consolidated from 1 November 2018.

October-December profit before taxes totalled EUR -5.4 (4.6) million and profit for the period was EUR -7.5 (4.3) million. Earnings per share was EUR -0.17 (0.10).

January-December 2019

Depreciation, amortisation and impairment on property, plant and equipment (PPE) and intangibles totalled EUR -54.0 (-35.8) million during January−December. The increase was due to a EUR -9.8 million write-down of old modules to better reflect current market demand and the acquisition of NMG with a direct impact to fleet size growth. The adoption of the new leasing standard IFRS 16 on 1 January 2019 increased depreciations by EUR 4.1 million.

Operating profit (EBIT) amounted to EUR 22.1 (42.6) million. Operating profit included items affecting comparability of EUR 12.4 (5.2) million. EUR 8.1 million were related to the costs of the public listing of Adapteo, EUR 2.1 million to the restructuring related to the NMG, and EUR 2.3 million were expenses related to integration of NMG. During the comparison period, items affecting comparability included costs regarding preparations for the public listing of Adapteo of EUR 1.4 million and NMG acquisition related expenses of EUR 3.8 million.

Net financial expenses were EUR -7.6 (-7.4) million as a result of new refinancing arrangements and the NMG acquisition. Adapteo refinanced all the debts

8.6 (28.3) million. Earnings per share was EUR 0.19 (0.63).

Capital expenditure

Adapteo’s January−December net capital expenditure totalled EUR 69.2 (58.2) million. Net fleet capex amounted to EUR 59.4 (53.5) million and growth capex amounted to EUR 29.1 (46.7) million. Growth capex decreased due to slower fleet growth in Sweden. In addition to fleet expansion, reinvestments were made to replace modules disposed of during the reporting

period. Disposed C30 modules were replaced by modern C90 modules, which will generate higher rental income in the future. Expenditure on new rental modules required for growth was made in Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Germany.

Cash flow, financing and balance sheet

In January−December, cash flow from operating activities before financial items and taxes improved and amounted to EUR 92.0 (63.2) million. Operating cash flow before growth capex totalled EUR 65.7 (57.6) million. Net working capital decreased during 2019 by EUR 17.2 (7.5) million.

At the end of the review period the EUR 100,000,000 revolving credit facility was fully undrawn.

Property, plant and equipment amounted to EUR 451.1 million (on 31 December 2018 EUR 423.3 million) of the balance sheet total at the end of the review period. Total assets were EUR 747.0 million (on 31 December 2018 EUR 708.7 million).

Performance in October-December

Business Area Rental Space's fourth quarter net sales decreased by 2% to EUR 44.6 (45.6 Oct-Dec 2018) million. Rental sales were higher than in the preceding quarter but lower than in Q4 2018. Net sales had a positive impact, +14% up on Q4 2018, from Assembly and other services. In Sweden, the public market was weaker with a low number of tenders, being negatively affected by the challenging financial situation in many municipalities. However, there is still an underlying need of schools and preschools in Sweden. The private rental market in Sweden remained stable. In Finland, rental sales were impacted by lower demand for older modules and a high number of returning projects. Demand for C90 modules were at a good level and ongoing project deliveries of C90 modules will have a positive impact on future rental sales. In Germany, net sales were growing in both Rental and Assembly and other services. In Denmark and Norway, many assembly and disassembly projects were closed with high revenue.

Comparable EBITDA was flat at EUR 22.6 (22.6) million with a positive cost development in Finland, Denmark and Norway, while the comparable EBITDA margin increased to 50.7% (49.6%).

EBITDA amounted to EUR 22.6 (22.6) million. Items affecting comparability included costs related to restructuring of EUR 0.0 million.

Performance in January-December

Business Area Rental Space's January-December net sales increased by 1% to EUR 186.0 (184.8 Jan-Dec 2018) million. Rental sales and Assembly and other services both remained at last year’s level. In Sweden, the private market activity remained stable, but the public market activity has been slower than expected. Due to lower demand for new rentals Adapteo’s fleet in Sweden has grown at a slower pace compared to the previous years. Utilisation rate decreased to 84% compared to 85% the previous year as a result of a high number of returns and due to high capital expenditure on C90 modules in late 2019. In Denmark, fleet size decreased over the year due to low demand. However, rental sales increased towards the end of the year. In Germany, net sales remained at the previous year’s level with rental sales being slightly higher than in the previous year. Rental sales growth was steady in Norway while assembly and disassembly revenue made a positive contribution. Net Sales in Germany were positively impacted by great success in the BAUMA fair, held every three years in Munich. Price pressure has increased in all countries due to increased competition.

Comparable EBITDA grew by 9% to EUR 92.3 (84.7) million driven by indirect cost savings and sales of rental modules and the comparable EBITDA margin increased to 49.7% (45.8%). EBITDA amounted to EUR 91.2 (84.7) million. Items affecting comparability included costs related to restructuring of EUR 1.2 million.

Business Area Permanent Space

In Business Area Permanent Space, Adapteo provides mainly tailor-made pre-fabricated modular space solutions for sale or long-term leasing to public and private sector customers. Adapteo provides turnkey solutions, which can be considered by customers as substitutes for buildings constructed by traditional

building contractors and which are manufactured in controlled indoor circumstances with a short delivery time. The modular buildings in this business area also resemble permanent buildings in their characteristics and comply with the permanent building requirements.

1 External sales

Performance in October-December

Business Area Permanent Space's fourth quarter external net sales amounted to EUR 5.0 (9.8 Oct-Dec 2018) million, showing a decrease of 49%. Rental sales growth now reflects leasing revenue recognition in Sweden. The orderbook has increased during Q4 compared to Q3 and is also higher than at the end of Q4 2018. Inter-segment sales increased due to higher activity at the Anneberg factory.

Comparable EBITDA declined from the previous year and was EUR -0.7 (0.9) million. Profitability in Permanent Space is depending on the quality in execution, both in production and on project site. Actions are continuing in order to improve the performance of the business area.

EBITDA amounted to EUR –0.7 (0.9) million, thus with no items affecting comparability.

Performance in January-December

Business Area Permanent Space's January-December external net sales amounted to EUR 30.3 (35.8 Jan-Dec 2018) million, showing a decrease of -15%. The core segments School and Day Care had a positive impact on external sales. External sales were underpinned by the first three building deliveries to Finland and a first building delivered to Norway. Both external and internal sales declined due to the Gråbo factory’s transition to produce C90 rental modules. In the second half of the year, internal sales were higher than in second half of the 2018 due to higher demand from Rental Space in Finland.

Comparable EBITDA decreased to EUR 1.4 (4.0) million, representing 4.7% (11.2%) of external net sales. Profitability was negatively affected by production lines being in transition. The Anneberg factory is executing an efficiency programme in order to improve material flow and remove bottlenecks in production.

EBITDA amounted to EUR 0.8 (4.0) million. Items affecting comparability included costs related to restructuring of EUR 0.6 million.

Other

Personnel

At the end of 2019, the number of employees in Adapteo Group was 372 (406).

Governance

Pursuant to the provisions of the Finnish Companies Act and Adapteo’s Articles of Association, the management and governance of Adapteo are divided between the shareholders, the Board of Directors and the President and CEO of the company. In addition, the Group Management Team assists the President and CEO in the operations of the company. The shareholder participates in the governance of the company through resolutions passed at the General Meetings of Shareholders. The General Meeting of Shareholders is convened upon notice given by the Board of Directors. In addition, a General Meeting of Shareholders is held when requested in writing by the company’s auditor or by shareholders representing at

least one-tenth of all the shares in order to discuss a certain matter.

The number of members of the Board of Directors of Adapteo is currently five (5); and consists of Peter Nilsson as Chairman and Carina Edblad, Outi Henriksson, Andreas Philipson and Joakim Rubin as members of the Board of Directors of Adapteo. The term of office of the members of the Board of Directors of Adapteo commenced on the date of registration of the execution of the demerger of Cramo into two separate companies, Cramo Plc and Adapteo Plc, 30 June 2019, and will expire at the end of the first Annual General Meeting of Adapteo.

Current incentive schemes

Share-Based Incentive Plans

Before the demerger from Cramo Plc, the Board of Directors of Cramo Plc resolved to establish new share-based incentive plans for Adapteo Group employees. The aim was to align the objectives of the shareholders and the employees, to retain the employees at Adapteo, and to offer them continuity to existing Cramo share-based incentive plans after the demerger.

Performance Share Plan 2019

In the plan, the participants have an opportunity to earn Adapteo shares based on the achievement of performance criteria, as established by the Board. The plan includes three discretionary periods, 1 July - 31 December 2019 and calendar years 2020 and 2021. Each discretionary period is followed by a two-year vesting period. Each discretionary period is conditional to the Board's resolution. A participant's participation in the plan is contingent upon his or her participation in the Adapteo Employee Share Savings Plan. Any rewards will be paid out after the vesting period in Adapteo shares. The participants are entitled to get a gross number of shares if all the vesting conditions are met. However, a portion of shares is withheld to cover applicable taxes arising from the rewards to the participants and a net number of shares is paid. The plan constitutes a transitional deviation from the requirement of the Swedish Corporate Governance Code 2016, which provides that the vesting period to the date for acquisition of shares is to be no less than three years. For business, continuity and programme design reasons, the discretionary periods and vesting periods of the Performance Share Plan 2019 have been set to match Adapteo's financial year, being the calendar year. However, as the completion of the demerger was registered on 30 June 2019, the demerger occurred during a calendar year. Therefore, the first discretionary period commenced on 1 July 2019, and, as a result, the first discretionary period and

vesting period would together be approximately two and a half years. It has been assessed that applying a discretionary period and vesting period of a total of three and a half years would be detrimental to the incentivising purpose of the programme. The second and third discretionary periods, together with their vesting periods, would both be a total of three years. The plan is aimed at approximately 20 key employees. The reward from the discretionary period 2019 is based on the Group's EPS and the Group's operative ROCE. Per current estimation, the rewards to be paid based on the discretionary period 2019 are approximately EUR 0.9 million at the maximum. The maximum rewards were converted to Adapteo shares when the trading on Adapteo shares started.

A member of the Group Management Team must hold 50 per cent of the shares resulting from the plan, until his or her shareholding in total corresponds to the value of his or her annual gross salary.

It is to be noted that the Board of Adapteo Plc has resolved not to launch a new discretionary period for 2020 under the Performance Share Plan 2019. Instead, the board is currently investigating alternative longterm incentive (LTI) programmes to better align with the interests of shareholders and management of Adapteo. A new LTI programme is expected to be presented and launched during Q1 2020.

Employee Share Savings Plan

The Employee Share Savings Plan was offered to all Adapteo Group employees. In the plan, employees were offered an opportunity to voluntarily save a proportion of their salary to be used for the purchase of Adapteo shares.

The plan period is 1 July - 31 December 2019, during which savings from the participants’ salaries have been deducted monthly. The minimum savings amount per participant per month is 2 per cent of gross salary, and the maximum is 5 per cent. The total amount of all savings may not exceed EUR 0.8 million. Each participant will receive one free matching share for every two purchased savings shares after the designated holding period, which ends on 15 May 2022, assuming the preconditions of shareholding and employment have been met. It is to be noted that the Board of Directors of Adapteo Plc has resolved not to launch a new Employee Share Savings Plan for 2020. The shares earned under the current Employee Share Savings Plan 2019 shall continue to vest in accordance with terms and conditions of the plan and payed to the participants in the original time table in May 2022.

Cramo’s Share-Based Incentive Plans

Pursuant to the demerger from Cramo, the Board of Directors of Cramo resolved on certain adjustments to the reward payments of share-based incentive plans set out from Cramo summarized below:

Performance Share Plans 2017, 2018 and 2019 All rewards will be paid out in both Cramo and Adapteo shares, so that for each earned Cramo share, the participants receive one additional Adapteo share. The participants are entitled to get a gross number of shares if all the vesting conditions are met. However, a portion of shares is withheld to cover applicable taxes arising from the rewards to the participants and a net number of shares is paid.

participants in the original schedule after the relevant vesting periods, in May 2020 and 2021. For Adapteo participants, the discretionary period 2019 ended already on 30 June 2019. Any rewards accrued by 30 June 2019 will be paid to participants in the original schedule after the relevant vesting period, in May 2022.

One Cramo Share Plan

After the completion date pursuant to the demerger, the pending matching shares in the One Cramo Share Plan will be paid to the participants in the original schedule after the relevant holding periods, in May 2020, 2021, and 2022. Matching shares will be paid out in both Cramo and Adapteo shares, so that for each earned Cramo share, the participants receive one additional Adapteo share. The participants are entitled to get a gross number of shares if all the vesting conditions are met. However, a portion of shares is withheld to cover applicable taxes arising from the rewards to the participants and a net number of shares is paid.

For Adapteo participants, saving in the One Cramo Share Plan ended on 30 June 2019. Any savings not used for share purchases before the demerger has been used to purchase Adapteo shares for Adapteo participants after the demerger. The matching shares will be denominated respectively.

Due to the recent tender offer process for all shares of Cramo Plc made by Boels, the Board of Directors of Adapteo has decided to make certain considerations relating to the share-based plans originating from Cramo. The Board of Directors has decided that all Adapteo shares under the affected programmes shall continue to vest in accordance with the original time table and terms and conditions. The Board of Directors will decide on the treatment of the shares or share value of Cramo share under each respective plan period.

The pending confirmed rewards from the discretionary periods 2017 and 2018 will be paid to

Risks and uncertainties

Unfavourable developments in the global economic and financial markets may affect Adapteo’s operating environment negatively, which could result in decreased demand for Adapteo’s services due to financial difficulties experienced by Adapteo’s customers. In addition to the general state of the economy and the customers’ financial situation, the demand for temporary relocation also varies with demographics and political decisions. Factors such as an ageing building stock, changes in the age structure of the population and internal migration may have an impact on the demand for Adapteo’s solutions and services as well as on the prevailing cost level. Possible changes in regulation relating to Adapteo’s business operations may also turn out to be unfavourable for Adapteo.

In addition to the uncertainties in the operating environment, the main risks associated with Adapteo’s business operations are related to Adapteo’s strategy, public procurement and other tendering processes,

project and fleet management, logistic chains, suppliers’ ability to provide products and services, competition in the market, ability to attract and retain personnel, customer acquisition as well as other operational risks relating to the functioning of internal processes or systems. In addition, Adapteo’s business is subject to risks related to corporate acquisitions and reorganisations, such as the ability to integrate NMG into its existing business and the successful implementation of stand-alone Adapteo.

Uncertainty in the financial markets and economy may also be reflected in Adapteo’s financial position and financing as a materialisation of credit and counterparty risk, difficulties in accessing additional financing as well as higher financial expenses and other related risks. Fluctuations in interest and exchange rates may also have an unfavourable impact on Adapteo due to exposure to foreign currencies. In addition, economic uncertainty increases the impairment risks to the balance sheet values.

Retained earnings and total equity have been decreased by a correction of EUR 173 thousand at the demerger date 30 June 2019.

2The total equity has decreased as at 30 June 2019 mainly due to portion of Cramo's external general debt transferred to Adapteo in accordance with the demerger plan as well as decreases in allocated carve-out debt balances prior to the demerger. Net of these items has increased the amount of borrowings and decreased the amount of total equity.

Notes to the condensed annual financial information

1. Background

Adapteo Plc was established through the partial demerger of Cramo Plc on 30 June 2019 when all the assets, debts and liabilities belonging to Cramo’s Modular Space business transferred to a new independent company named Adapteo Plc. Thus, Adapteo has not formed a separate legal group before 30 June 2019.

The balance sheet as at 31 December 2019 as well as the income statement and cash flow statement information for the period 1 July–31 December 2019 are based on actual consolidated figures. The income statement and cash flow statement information for the year ended 31 December 2019 is a combination of actual consolidated and carve-out financial information and the comparative figures for year 2018 are fully based on carve-out financial information.

The consolidated financial information is presented in thousands of euros except when otherwise indicated. Rounding differences may occur.

This annual financial information is unaudited.

2. Basis of preparation and significant changes during the reporting period

This condensed annual financial information for 1 January to 31 December 2019 has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, applying the same accounting policies as in the audited carve-out financial statements as at and for the years ended 31 December 2018, 2017 and 2016, except for the new accounting standards adopted as from 1 January 2019, which are described in section 9.

The consolidated financial information for the year ended 31 December 2019 are a combination of actual consolidated financial information of Adapteo Plc and its subsidiaries as from the demerger date 30 June 2019 and carve-out financial information prior to the demerger date. The carve-out financial information for the six months period 1 January to 30 June 2019, has been prepared on a carve-out basis from Cramo’s consolidated interim financial information using the historical income and expenses, assets and liabilities and cash flows attributable to Adapteo. The carve-out financial information also included certain Cramo’s parent company’s and Cramo Services AB’s income, expenses, assets, liabilities and cash flows which have either be transferred to Adapteo or which have been allocated to Adapteo for the purpose of preparation of carve-out financial information.

The carve-out financial information does not necessarily reflect what the combined results of operations and financial position would have been, had Adapteo existed as a separate independent legal entity and had it therefore presented stand-alone carve-out financial information during the periods presented. Further, it may not be indicative of Adapteo’s future performance, financial position and cash flows.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements

The preparation of this consolidated financial information including the carve-out financial information for periods prior to the demerger date has required management to make estimates and judgements affecting the amounts reported in this consolidated financial information and the accompanying notes. These estimates and judgements have an impact on the accounting principles applied to this consolidated financial information and on the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. Estimates, judgements and assumptions have been used for example for the carveout principles applied, determining the fair value of the assets acquired through business combinations, sharebased payments, taxes and impairment testing. A more detailed analysis of areas involving estimation and management judgement is included in note 1.5 of the audited carve-out financial statements as at and for the periods ended 31 December 2018, 2017 and 2016. Estimates made for previous periods have not changed. Management believes the assumptions and allocations underlying the carve-out financial information are reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances. The expenses and cost allocations have been determined on a basis considered by Cramo to be a reasonable reflection of the utilisation of services provided to or the benefit received by Adapteo during the periods presented. However, these assumptions and allocations are not necessarily indicative of the costs Adapteo would have incurred if it had operated on a stand-alone basis or as an entity independent of Cramo.

Significant changes during the reporting period

The financial position and performance of Adapteo as at and for the year ended 31 December 2019 were particularly affected by the following events and transactions:

  • Adapteo Plc was established on 30 June 2019 when the partial demerger of Cramo was completed and all assets, debts and liabilities attributable to Adapteo were transferred to Adapteo Plc. The balance sheet of Adapteo as at 31 December 2019 reflects the actual consolidated balance sheet of the group whereas income statement and cash flow information for the year 2019 is a combination of actual and carve-out information and comparative information for the year 2018 is fully prepared on a carve-out basis.

  • The total equity has decreased from EUR 214.6 million as at 31 December 2018 to EUR 187.4 million as at the demerger date 30 June 2019 mainly due to portion of Cramo's external general debt transferred to Adapteo in the demerger as at 30 June 2019 in accordance with the demerger plan as well as decreases in allocated carve-out debt balances prior to the demerger. Net of these items has increased the amount of borrowings and decreased the amount of total equity.

ADAPTEO PLC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS RELEASE 2019ADAPTEO PLC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS RELEASE 2019

  • Adapteo adopted the new IFRS 16 Leases standard on 1 January 2019 using the modified retrospective approach where the comparative financial information was not restated and the impacts of the adoption were recognised on the opening balance sheet on 1 January 2019.

  • Adapteo refinanced all the debts transferred in the demerger with a new term loan of EUR 400 million drawn on 1 July 2019.

  • Acquisition of Nordic Modular Group Holding AB ("NMG") completed on 31 October 2018 impacts

the comparability of the income statement information between the current reporting periods and the comparative periods.

  • Operating expenses for the year ended 2019 include items affecting comparability of EUR 12.4 million consisting of costs related to the listing of EUR 8.1 million, NMG acquisition related integration costs of EUR 2.3 million and restructuring costs of EUR 2.1 million consisting of redundancy payments.
3. Segment information

Adapteo offers premium modular space rental and rental related services and sells new modular space solutions. Adapteo’s operations and profitability is reported as two operating segments, Business Area Rental Space and Business Area Permanent Space, which is consistent with the internal reporting and the way that operative decisions related allocation of resources and assessment of performance have been made by the Adapteo’s group management team as Adapteo’s chief operating decision maker. Adapteo has not aggregated its operating segments. Adapteo reports its business area results using EBITDA and comparable EBITDA as the main operating measures. Business Area Rental Space includes the rental of modular space solutions as well as the provision of

assembly and other services. Business Area Permanent Space includes sales and long-term leasing of modular space solutions. Adapteo has operations in five geographical areas: Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark and Germany.

The information below summarises financial information for both business areas based on the business area structure effective as of the completion of the demerger, as well as geographical segment information.

The tables below present segment information for Adapteo's business areas for the periods ended 31 December 2019 on actual and carve-out basis and 31 December 2018 on a carve-out basis.

8. Share-based incentive plans

The demerger affected Cramo's share-based incentive plans attributable to Adapteo personnel and transferred to Adapteo in the demerger. The Board of Directors of Cramo has resolved on the adjustments to the reward payments of the Cramo's share-based incentive plans as described under 'Current incentive plans' in this Annual Financial Statement Release. After the demerger, all rewards for the Cramo's share-based incentive plans are paid out in both Cramo's and Adapteo's shares. The participants are entitled to get a gross amount of shares, but a portion of shares is

withheld to cover applicable taxes arising from the rewards to the participants. Taxes are paid on behalf of the participants and the employees receive a net amount of shares. At the demerger date, the portion of Cramo's share-based incentive plans to be settled with Cramo's shares were classified as cash-settled incentive plans and a liability was recognised on the balance sheet. As at 31 December 2019 the corresponding liability amounted to EUR 0.4 million.

9. Changes in accounting policies

This note explains the impact of the adoption of IFRS 16 Leases on the Adapteo’s financial statements and discloses the new accounting policies that have been applied from 1 January 2019.

Adapteo has adopted IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach from 1 January 2019 and has not restated comparatives for the 2018 reporting period, as permitted under the specific transitional provisions in the standard.

Adjustments recognised on adoption of IFRS 16

On adoption of IFRS 16, Adapteo recognised lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as operating leases under the principles of IAS 17 Leases. These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments. Average

incremental borrowing rate used was 2.5% as of 1 January 2019.

For leases previously classified as finance leases, the entity recognised the carrying amount of the lease asset and lease liability immediately before transition as the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset and the lease liability at the date of initial application. The measurement principles of IFRS 16 are only applied after that date. The remeasurements to the lease liabilities were recognised as adjustments to the related right-of-use assets immediately after the date of initial application.

The following table presents the reconciliation of operating lease commitments disclosed as at 31 December 2018 and the lease liability recognised as at 1 January 2019:

EUR thousands
Operating lease commitments disclosed as at 31 December 2018 15,801

Short-term/low-value leases recognised on a straight-line basis as expense -1,101
Lease liability recognised as at 1 January 2019 14,372

The right-of-use assets were measured at the amount December 2018. There were no onerous lease contracts equal to the lease liability, adjusted by the amount of that would have required an adjustment to the rightany prepaid or accrued lease payments relating to that of-use assets at the date of initial application. lease recognised in the balance sheet as at 31

ADAPTEO PLC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS RELEASE 2019ADAPTEO PLC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS RELEASE 2019

The recognised right-of-use assets are included in the property, plant and equipment as follows:

RoU Rental RoU RoU RoU other Total RoU
EUR thousands equipment Land Buildings assets assets
Net book value at 1 January 2019 1,212 5,798 6,855 2,936 16,802
Net book value at 31 December 2019 711 4,642 6,636 1,768 13,484

The transition of IFRS 16 increased property, plant and equipment by EUR 16.1 million and lease liabilities by EUR 14.4 million and decreased finance lease liabilities by EUR 0.7 million in the opening balance on 1 January 2019. The difference between opening balance of property, plant and equipment and lease liabilities was due to prepayments made before the effective date of the standard. Prepayments have not impact on items on property, plant and equipment as they were recognised to decrease the opening balance of the lease liability. In applying IFRS 16 for the first time, Adapteo has used the following practical expedients permitted by the standard:

  • for the short-term contracts in which the lease term is 12 months or less (except depot and premises contracts which are capitalised in the balance sheet to land and buildings although short-term), and to low value items.

  • the use of a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics

  • reliance on previous assessments on whether leases are onerous

  • the exclusion of initial direct costs for the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application, and

  • the use of hindsight in determining the lease term where the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease.

Adapteo has also elected not to reassess whether a contract is or contains a lease at the date of initial application. Instead, for contracts entered into before the transition date, Adapteo has relied on its assessment made by applying IAS 17 and IFRIC 4 to determine if an Arrangement contains a Lease. The lessor accounting remained mostly similar to previous IAS 17 accounting.

Adapteo’s leasing activities and how these are accounted for

Adapteo leases rental machinery, vehicles and premises. Contracts for rental machinery and vehicles are typically made with maximum maturity of five years and premises with maximum maturity of 20 years but may have extension options. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and conditions. The lease agreements do not impose any covenants, but leased assets may not be used as security for borrowing purposes.

Until the 2018 financial year, leases of property, plant and equipment were classified as either finance or operating leases. Payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor)

were charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

From 1 January 2019, leases are recognised as a rightof-use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at which the leased asset is available for use by Adapteo. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The right-ofuse asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:

  • fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable

  • variable lease payment that are based on an index or a rate

  • amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees

  • the exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and

  • payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising that option.

The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be determined, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value in a similar economic environment with similar terms and conditions.

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:

  • the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability

  • any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received

  • any initial direct costs, and

  • restoration costs.

Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Lowvalue assets comprise IT equipment and small items of office furniture.

comparable EBITDA is one of
Adapteo’s long-term financial
targets.
Capital employed Property, plant and equipment +

Appendix 2 – Additional unaudited pro forma financial information

Basis of presentation

Adapteo Plc publishes additional unaudited pro forma financial information for the year ended 31 December 2019 and 2018 to illustrate the effects of the acquisition of NMG and the demerger and related refinancing on the business performance of Adapteo. Pro forma information is presented separately for group level and for new business area structure effective as of the consummation of the demerger to facilitate the comparability of Adapteo’s future performance. Considering the magnitude of the acquisition of NMG as well as the demerger and related refinancing and the impact on Adapteo’s performance and financial position, stand-alone historical information for the periods presented does not provide comparable information for the company’s operating performance and financial position.

The pro forma income statement information illustrates the financial impact of the acquisition of NMG as well as the demerger and related refinancing on the business performance of Adapteo as if the transactions had taken place on 1 January 2018.

The unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and addresses a hypothetical situation as if the transactions took place earlier and therefore does not represent the Adapteo’s actual historical results of operations and does not purport to project the operating results of Adapteo. The pro forma financial information is prepared based on the historical results of Adapteo and NMG and is presented in accordance with IFRS. The pro forma financial information presented herein has been prepared on a basis consistent with the basis of presentation used in the unaudited pro forma financial information included in the Demerger Prospectus dated 3 June 2019 except that all listing and acquisition related costs have been presented in the periods when these costs were incurred consistently with the

underlying historical financial information. In addition, certain allocation principles regarding business area information have been redefined.

For additional information on the basis of presentation of the pro forma financial information and more detailed disclosure on the adjustments, refer to the unaudited pro forma financial information included in the Adapteo Demerger Prospectus dated 3 June 2019 available on our website at www.adapteogroup.com. As Adapteo did not form a separate legal group of entities prior to 30 June 2019, the carve-out financial information which forms the basis for Adapteo’s pro forma financial information is therefore not necessarily indicative of the financial performance of Adapteo that would have occurred if it had operated as a separate stand-alone group with standalone corporate headquarter functions during the periods presented herein or of Adapteo’s future performance. For additional information on the historical results of Adapteo and NMG, refer to the audited historical carve-out financial statements and the unaudited interim carve-out financial information of Adapteo and audited consolidated financial statements of NMG available on our website.

The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions. There can be no assurance that the assumptions used in the preparation of the unaudited pro forma financial information will prove to be correct.

All amounts are presented in millions of euros unless otherwise noted. The unaudited pro forma financial information set forth herein has been rounded. Accordingly, in certain instances, the sum of the numbers in a column or row may not conform exactly to the total amount given for that column or row.

The additional pro forma financial information is unaudited.

Definitions for the pro forma key figures

The following table sets forth the definitions of the key figures presented on a pro forma basis. The components of the pro forma key figures included in the definitions below have been derived from the unaudited pro forma income statement information or net debt information, unless otherwise stated.

Key figure Definition Reason for the use
Net sales growth in constant
currency
Net sales growth between financial years in
reporting period's foreign exchange rates
Net sales growth in constant
currency presents the
development of Adapteo's net
sales excluding the effect of
foreign exchange rate
fluctuations.
Rental sales growth in
constant currency
Rental sales growth between financial years in
reporting period's foreign exchange rates
Rental sales growth in
constant currency presents
the development of Adapteo's
rental sales excluding the
effect of foreign exchange
rate fluctuations.
Operating profit (EBIT)1 Operating profit (EBIT) as presented in the pro
forma income statement
Operating profit (EBIT) shows
result generated by the
operating activities.
EBITA1 Operating profit (EBIT) + amortisation and
impairment on intangible assets resulting from
acquisitions
EBITA is a result metric
adjusted for amortisations and
impairments resulting from
acquisitions and better
reflects the underlying
business performance.
EBITDA1 Operating profit (EBIT) + depreciation,
amortisation and impairments
EBITDA is the indicator to
measure the performance of
Adapteo. EBITDA also provides
a proxy for cash flow
generated by operations.
Items affecting comparability Material items outside ordinary course of
business, such as costs related to the
contemplated listing, acquisition and integration
related expenses, restructuring expenses
including redundancy payments, impairment
losses on goodwill and intangible assets
recognised in business acquisitions, and gains
and losses on business disposals.
Comparable EBIT, comparable
EBITA and comparable EBITDA
are presented in addition to
EBIT, EBITA and EBITDA to
reflect the underlying business
performance and to enhance
comparability from period to
period. Adapteo believes that
Comparable EBIT1 EBIT + items affecting comparability these adjusted performance
Comparable EBITA1 EBITA + items affecting comparability ~~m~~easures provide meaningful
~~s~~upplemental information by
Comparable EBITDA1 EBITDA + items affecting comparability
excluding items outside normal
business, which reduce
comparability between the
periods.
Growth of comparable EBITDA
is also one of Adapteo’s long-
term financial targets.
Net debt Non-current and current borrowings - cash and
cash equivalents – loan receivables - non-
current and current finance lease receivables
Net debt is an indicator to
measure the total external
debt financing of Adapteo
Net debt / Comparable EBITDA Net debt / Comparable EBITDA for the last 12
months
The ratio of net debt to
comparable EBITDA helps to
show financial risk level and it
is a useful measure for
management to monitor the
company’s indebtedness in
relation to its earnings and is

Key figure Definition Reason for the use
one of Adapteo’s long-term
financial targets.
Operating ROCE Comparable EBITA for the last 12 months /
Property, plant and equipment + investment in
joint ventures + net working capital (based on
carve-out balance sheet figures for FY2018)
Net working capital = Non-current other
receivables + inventories + trade and other
receivables – non-current other liabilities –
non-current and current, provisions – trade and
other payables
Internal measure to evaluate
return on capital employed and
to analyse and compare
different businesses and
opportunities taking into
account capital required. This
ratio is also one of Adapteo’s
long-term financial targets.
Earnings per share Profit for the period / average number of
Adapteo’s outstanding shares (number of
Adapteo shares issued as a demerger
consideration (44,682,697 pcs) used for all
periods presented prior to the demerger date)
Comparable earnings per share Profit for the period excluding items affecting
comparability, net of taxes and material
impairment losses on property, plant and
equipment, net of taxes / average number of
Adapteo’s outstanding shares (number of
Adapteo shares issued as a demerger
consideration (44,682,697 pcs) used for all
periods presented prior to the demerger date)
Utilisation rate Average rented fleet during the period divided by
total fleet available
Utilisation rate presents how
large a portion of the fleet has
on average been on rent.
Utilisation rate is a useful
indicator to monitor the
efficiency of fleet
management.
Total sqm of modules - Total sqm of modules is a
useful indicator to monitor the
size of the rental fleet.

1 Corresponding margin has been calculated by dividing the measure with net sales.
