|
Key business developments in the first quarter of 2022
|
|
• |
Sales declined organically* by 1.0% as global LVP declined by around 4% vs. Q1 last year (IHS Markit April 2022). Sales outperformed global LVP by 3pp despite sharply negative geographical mix. |
|
|
• |
Profitability declined due to significant operating margin headwind from higher costs related mainly to raw materials but also related to supply chain disruptions, LVP volatility and high level of premium freight, all of which have been exacerbated by the war in Ukraine and lock downs in China. Operating margin declined by 4.2pp and adjusted operating margin* declined by 7.4pp. Return on capital employed declined to 14.6% and adjusted return on capital employed* to 7.4%. |
|
|
• |
Strong balance sheet and leverage ratio* within target range. Operating cash flow of $70 million and free cash flow* of $53 million support a strong balance sheet. Net debt* and EBITDA declined vs. a year earlier, leading to an unchanged leverage ratio of 1.4x. A dividend of $0.64 per share was paid in the quarter and 0.23 million shares were repurchased. |

Financial Report January – March 2022 |
Business update relating to COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine
COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact our business in the first quarter of 2022 through limited LVP by our customers caused by global semiconductor shortage and other industry supply chain disruptions. First quarter of 2022 saw global LVP decline year over year by around 4% (according to IHS Markit April 2022). The lower LVP negatively impacted our sales and profitability. Supply chain disruptions that led to lower customer demand visibility and material changes to customer call-offs with short notice also negatively impacted our production efficiency and profitability in the quarter. Rising raw material costs amounted to more than 5pp in operating margin headwind in the first quarter, of which a small part was offset by commercial customer recoveries.
Direct COVID-19 related costs, such as personal protective equipment, quarantine costs and similar items, were around $2 million in the first quarter 2022. Governmental support in connection with furloughing, short-term work weeks, and other similar activities was around $7 million in the quarter.
Pandemic related lockdowns in China throughout March resulted in significant loss of production and adversely impacted sales and profitability. It is currently unclear how long this lockdown policy will continue.
We expect the current industry-wide semiconductor supply shortage to be a limiting factor for the LVP recovery in 2022. We also expect that current price environment could lead to raw material costs of up to 6pp in operating margin headwind for the full year of 2022, with similar year over year impact in all quarters. We are currently in discussions with our customers regarding price increases and we believe product price increases should gradually offset the cost inflation, mainly beginning to have effect from around mid-year.
In response to the increased challenging market conditions, we continue with strict cost control measures, a hiring freeze and accelerated cost savings and footprint activities. In addition to recently announced capacity alignments and footprint actions in Japan, Europe and Americas. we are reducing direct labor and closing one plant in South Korea. We also divested a property in Japan. The situation is monitored closely, and further actions are being evaluated.
The war in Ukraine
The direct impact of the war in Ukraine is relatively limited. In 2021, sales in Russia were less than 1.0% of total sales. Autoliv has one facility with less than 200 employees in Russia, mainly supplying to international OEMs with manufacturing in Russia. Autoliv net assets in Russia, mainly USD cash items, amount to around $15 million. Autoliv has no operations in Ukraine. We have identified four sub-suppliers in Ukraine and we are supporting our suppliers in relocating that sourcing. Autoliv has been able to fulfill its delivery commitments to its customers.
The war is impacting European LVP negatively due to component shortages. It is our understanding that actions are being undertaken by the impacted suppliers to relocate sourcing and that this shortage situation is likely to gradually improve in coming quarters.

Sales by product – Airbags, Steering Wheels and Other
All major product categories declined organically* in the quarter except front center airbags. The largest contributor to the decline was side airbags and steering wheels, followed by driver airbags and inflatable curtains.
Sales by product - Seatbelts
The main contributor to Seatbelt products organic decline* was Europe with Americas declining slightly, partly offset by growth in China and Rest of Asia.
Our global organic sales* declined by around 1% compared to the LVP decline of 4% (according to IHS Markit April 2022). The 3pp outperformance was despite negative geographical mix effects as LVP in higher content per vehicle markets such as Europe and Japan declined more than lower CPV markets such as China. Autoliv outperformed LVP
by more than 12pp in Europe, by more than 7pp in Japan, by more than 3pp in Americas and by around 1.5pp in Rest of Asia. We underperformed by almost 2pp in China, an effect of that domestic OEMs’ LVP increased by 17% vs. only 1% for global OEMs.

First quarter 2022 development
Gross profit decreased by $170 million, and the gross margin decreased by 6.9pp compared to the same quarter 2021. The gross margin decrease was primarily driven by more than 5pp adverse effects from higher raw material costs and significantly higher costs for premium freight.
S,G&A costs increased by $7 million compared to the prior year, mainly relating to investments in personnel and IT and improvement projects partly offset by positive FX translation effects.
R,D&E, net costs were unchanged at $107 million. In relation to sales, R,D&E costs increased to 5.0% from 4.8%.
Other income (expense), net improved by $74 million compared to prior year, mainly due to around $80 million gain from the sale of a property in Japan partly offset by around $10 million in capacity alignment provision for the closure of a plant in South Korea.
Operating income decreased by $103 million compared to the same period in 2021, mainly as a consequence of
the lower gross profit, partly offset by the improved Other income (expense).
Adjusted operating income* decreased by $169 million vs. the prior year, mainly due to lower gross profit. The difference of $66 million vs. operating income is mainly due to around $80 million in gain from the sale of a property in Japan partly offset by around $12 million in total provisions for the closure of a plant in South Korea.
Financial and non-operating items, net, improved by $5 million, mainly due to lower interest expense, net.
Income before taxes decreased by $98 million compared to the prior year, mainly due to the lower operating income partly offset by improved financial and non-operating items, net.
Tax rate was 30.3%, compared to 27.7% in the same period last year, mainly due to less favorable country mix.
Earnings per share, diluted decreased by $0.85 compared to a year earlier, where the main drivers were $1.39 from lower adjusted operating income* partly mitigated by $0.49 from capacity alignment, $0.05 from financial items and $0.03 from lower tax.

Financial Report January – March 2022 |
First quarter 2022 development
Trade working capital* was reduced by $135 million compared to the same period last year, where the main drivers were related to $170 million higher accounts payables and $22 million in lower receivables, net, partly
offset by $57 million in increased inventories, net.
Operating cash flow decreased by $116 million to $70 million compared to the same period last year, mainly due to lower net income.
Capital expenditure, net decreased by $76 million, which mainly reflects $95 million in proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment. Capital expenditure, net in relation to sales was 0.8% vs. 4.1% a year earlier.
Free cash flow* was $53 million, compared to $93 million a year earlier. The decline was due to the lower operating cash flow, partly offset by the property sale in Japan.
Cash conversion* defined as free cash flow* in relation to net income, was 64% compared to 59% a year earlier reflecting that free cash flow declined less than net income declined.
Net debt* was $1,057 million as of March 31, 2022, which was $58 million lower than a year earlier and $5 million higher compared to December 31, 2021.
Liquidity position. As of March 31, 2022, our cash balance was around $0.9 billion, and including committed, unused loan facilities, our liquidity position was around $2.0 billion.
Leverage ratio*. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had a leverage ratio of 1.4x, compared to 1.4x as of March 31, 2021, as both the net debt* decreased and the 12 months trailing adjusted EBITDA* decreased.
Total equity increased by $153 million compared to March 31, 2021, mainly due to $363 million from net income, partially offset by dividends of $220 million and share repurchases of $18 million.

All forward-looking statements are based upon our current expectations, various assumptions and/or data available from third parties. Our expectations and assumptions are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that such forward-looking statements will materialize or prove to be correct as forward-looking statements are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual future results, performance or achievements to differ materially from the future results, performance or achievements expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Financial Report January – March 2022 |
RECONCILIATION OF U.S. GAAP TO NON-U.S. GAAP MEASURES
In this report we sometimes refer to non-U.S. GAAP measures that we and securities analysts use in measuring Autoliv's performance. We believe that these measures assist investors and management in analyzing trends in the Company's business for the reasons given below. Investors should not consider these non-U.S. GAAP measures as substitutes, but rather as additions, to financial reporting measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. It should be noted that these measures, as defined, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Components in Sales Increase/Decrease
Since the Company historically generates approximately 75% of sales in currencies other than in the reporting currency (i.e. U.S. dollars) and currency rates have been volatile, we analyze the Company's sales trends and performance as changes in organic sales growth. This presents the increase or decrease in the overall U.S. dollar net sales on a comparable basis, allowing separate discussions of the impact of acquisitions/divestitures and exchange rates. The table on page 6 present changes in organic sales growth as reconciled to the change in the total U.S. GAAP net sales.
Trade Working Capital
Due to the need to optimize cash generation to create value for shareholders, management focuses on operationally derived trade working capital as defined in the table below. The reconciling items used to derive this measure are, by contrast, managed as part of our overall management of cash and debt, but they are not part of the responsibilities of day-to-day operations' management.

Financial Report January – March 2022 |
Autoliv from time to time enters into “debt-related derivatives” (DRDs) as a part of its debt management and as part of efficiently managing the Company’s overall cost of funds. Creditors and credit rating agencies use net debt adjusted for DRDs in their analyses of the Company’s debt, therefore we provide this non-U.S. GAAP measure. DRDs are fair value adjustments to the carrying value of the underlying debt. Also included in the DRDs is the unamortized fair value adjustment related to a discontinued fair value hedge that will be amortized over the remaining life of the debt. By adjusting for DRDs, the total financial liability of net debt is disclosed without grossing debt up with currency or interest fair values.

Financial Report January – March 2022 |
The non-U.S. GAAP measure “net debt” is also used in the non-U.S. GAAP measure “Leverage ratio”. Management uses this measure to analyze the amount of debt the Company can incur under its debt policy. Management believes that this policy also provides guidance to credit and equity investors regarding the extent to which the Company would be prepared to leverage its operations. In 2021, EBITDA calculation was redefined to exclude other non-operating items and income from equity method investments. Historic EBITDA and leverage ratio have been recalculated resulting in minor adjustments. Autoliv’s policy is to maintain a leverage ratio commensurate with a strong investment grade credit rating. The Company measures its leverage ratio as net debt* adjusted for pension liabilities in relation to adjusted EBITDA*. The long-term target is to maintain a leverage ratio of around 1.0x within a range of 0.5x to 1.5x.

Financial Report January – March 2022 |
Free Cash Flow, Net Cash Before Financing and Cash Conversion
Management uses the non-U.S. GAAP measure “free cash flow” to analyze the amount of cash flow being generated by the Company’s operations after capital expenditure, net. This measure indicates the Company’s cash flow generation level that enables strategic value creation options such as dividends or acquisitions. For details on free cash flow, see the reconciliation table below. Management uses the non-U.S. GAAP measure “net cash before financing” to analyze and disclose the cash flow generation available for servicing external stakeholders such as shareholders and debt stakeholders. For details on net cash before financing, see the reconciliation table below. Management uses the non-U.S. GAAP measure “cash conversion” to analyze the proportion of net income that is converted into free cash flow. The measure is a tool to evaluate how efficient the Company utilizes its resources. For details on cash conversion, see the reconciliation table below.

Financial Report January – March 2022 |
We believe that comparability between periods is improved through the exclusion of certain items. To assist investors in understanding the operating performance of Autoliv's business, it is useful to consider certain U.S. GAAP measures exclusive of these items.
The following table reconciles Income before income taxes, Net income attributable to controlling interest, capital employed, which are inputs utilized to calculate Return on Capital Employed (“ROCE”), adjusted ROCE and Return on Total Equity (“ROE”). The Company believes this presentation may be useful to investors and industry analysts who utilize these adjusted non-U.S. GAAP measures in their ROCE and ROE calculations to exclude certain items for comparison purposes across periods. Autoliv’s management uses the ROCE, adjusted ROCE and ROE measures for purposes of comparing its financial performance with the financial performance of other companies in the industry and providing useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business.
As used by the Company, ROCE is annualized operating income and income from equity method investments, relative to average capital employed. Adjusted ROCE is annualized operating income and income from equity method investments, relative to average capital employed as adjusted to exclude certain non-recurring items. The Company believes ROCE and adjusted ROCE are useful indicators of long-term performance both absolute and relative to the Company's peers as it allows for a comparison of the profitability of the Company’s capital employed in its business relative to that of its peers.
ROE is the ratio of annualized income (loss) relative to average total equity for the periods presented. The Company’s management believes that ROE is a useful indicator of how well management creates value for its shareholders through its operating activities and its capital management.
Accordingly, the tables below reconcile from U.S. GAAP to the equivalent non-U.S. GAAP measure.
