Record quarter with continued improvement in operating margin

Loomis achieved all-time high revenues and operating profit in the third quarter. Revenues in Europe and Latin America have returned to pre-pandemic levels with the opening of societies and increased tourism and travel. The automated solutions with SafePoint in the USA have continued to be successful. Loomis Pay transaction volumes continued to grow and the pilot project in Spain developed according to plan.

The record high revenue has been supported by continued strong organic growth across all geographies, which amounted to 15.5 percent (5.7) in the third quarter, as well as changes in exchange rates. The Group's operating margin (EBITA%) increased to 12.5 percent (11.3). The margin was positively

impacted by increased volumes but slightly impacted by labor shortages as well as general supply chain issues. Excluding Loomis Pay, the operating margin reached 13.1 percent (12.0).
