Q2 2022/23 highlights
Gross margin was 66%, against 69% in Q2 last year
Negative impact from: input cost inflation (raw materials, energy,
freight), double-digit wage inflation in Hungary, ramp-up costs in
Costa Rica, and cost related to backorder resolution. Electricity price
hedges of ~400 EUR/MWh (double from last year) took effect in
January. Positive impact from: Atos Medical, price increases, country
and product mix, and operating leverage and efficiency savings
Limited positive FX impact on the gross margin of 30 bps
Operating expenses in Q2 amounted to DKK 2,356 million. Operating
expenses grew 8% from last year excl. inorganic operating expenses
from Atos Medical (12% incl. inorganic OPEX). Atos Medical contributed
with DKK 280 million, including DKK 53 million in amortisation costs.
Distribution-to-sales ratio was 31%, compared to 29% last year
Distribution costs were up 16% vs. last year, driven by Atos Medical,
increased sales & marketing activities and travel post COVID-19,
higher logistics costs, and continued commercial investments
(Interventional Urology, consumer and digital, Atos Medical)
The admin-to-sales ratio was 5%, on par with last year. The R&D-to-
sales ratio was 3%, compared to 4% last year
EBIT before special items was DKK 1,671 million, a 1% decrease from
last year. Reported EBIT margin before special items was 28% compared
to 31% last year (neutral impact from FX)
