Q3 2024
Leading productivity and sustainability partner

Innovations, acquisitions, and partnerships strengthen Epiroc’s position as a leading global productivity and
sustainability partner. Below are some highlights from the quarter.

Acquisitions – Creating options for the future


Two acquisitions were completed in the quarter. See note 2.
• ASI Mining provides mining automation systems, incl. fully
autonomous solutions. Its solutions are OEM agnostic, meaning
they work regardless of machine brand and fit well for mixed fleets.
During 2018, Epiroc acquired 34% of the shares and on July 3,
2024, the remaining 66% outstanding shares were acquired.
• ACB+ manufactures attachments and quick couplers used on
excavators for construction and scrap recycling/deconstruction,
and strengthens Epiroc’s offering within Attachments. The
acquisition was completed September 4.

Minetruck MT66 S eDrive


The Minetruck MT66 S eDrive, launched during MINExpo in Las
Vegas in September, is the first large-capacity mine truck with both
an electric drivetrain and a powerful diesel engine (hybrid). It
combines the cost-effectiveness of a traditional mine truck with the
productivity of an electric one, without requiring change to a mine’s
infrastructure. Customers enjoy 15% boost in productivity, 11% faster
ramp speed and 7% fuel reduction compared to previous versions.

Large order for underground mining equipment, including


battery-electric vehicles
Epiroc won a large order, MSEK 350, for underground mining
equipment, including battery-electric vehicles, from Eurasian
Resources Group (ERG) in Kazakhstan. Several of the machines will
be operated driverless (tele-remotely), and all of the equipment will
be supplied with a collision avoidance system.

A breath of fresh air


While battery-electric equipment reduces the ventilation needs in an
underground mine, sufficient ventilation for people to work in the
mine is still needed. With Epiroc’s Ventilation on Demand technology,
customers can significantly reduce energy consumption.

Epiroc AB Interim Report January – September 2024 8 (28)


Q3 2024
Equipment & Service

Equipment & Service provides rock drilling equipment, equipment for rock excavation, rock reinforcement, loading
and haulage, ventilation systems, drilling equipment for exploration, water and energy, exploration tools and
solutions, as well as related spare parts and service for the mining and construction industries. The segment also
provides solutions for automation, digitalization and electrification.

Acquisitions completed in 2024


• Stanley Infrastructure designs, manufactures, and sells attachments, typically used on excavators, and
handheld hydraulic and battery-powered tools for applications in infrastructure, construction, scrap recycling,
deconstruction, and railroad infrastructure. Its strong and innovative brands include LaBounty, Paladin,
Pengo and Dubuis. The acquisition strengthens Epiroc’s presence especially in the United States.
Stanley Infrastructure had revenues in 2023 of MUSD 447 (MSEK 4 725), an adjusted EBITA margin of 16%
and 1 380 employees. The acquisition was announced on December 15, 2023, and was completed on April

(Enterprise Value) amounted to MUSD 760 (MSEK 8 200) and is mainly allocated to intangible assets and
goodwill. The acquisition was an all-cash transaction. The acquisition will dilute the Group’s and the Tools &
Attachments’ full year 2024 adjusted EBITA margins with approximately 0.6-0.8 and 1.6-1.8 percentage
points respectively. Integration and transaction costs amounted to MSEK -255 in the first nine months 2024

are reported in “Tools & Attachments”.

of machine brand and fit well for mixed fleets. The company has approximately MSEK 300 in annual
revenues. Epiroc already owned 34% of ASI Mining, which it acquired in 2018. The acquisition of the
remaining 66% of the company was completed on July 3. Revenues from the acquisition are reported in
“Equipment”. The transaction has led to a positive revaluation effect of the ownership held prior to the
acquisition in the segment Equipment & Service. The gain has been reported as an item affecting
comparability of MSEK +554 in the third quarter 2024.

• ACB+ manufactures attachments and quick couplers used on excavators for construction as well as related
areas such as scrap recycling and deconstruction. Quick couplers are used with carriers, typically
excavators, to enable safe and efficient change of attachments, such as buckets and hydraulic tools. The
company is market leading in France and has customers throughout Europe. The company has
approximately MSEK 325 in annual revenues and 140 employees. Revenues from the acquisition are
reported in “Tools & Attachments”.

Several key figures in this report are not defined according to IFRS. The alternative performance measures are
marked with a *. They provide complementary information aiming to help readers to analyze the company’s
operations and facilitate an evaluation of the performance. Since not all companies calculate financial perfor-
mance measures in the same manner, these are not always comparable with measures used by other compa-
nies. These financial performance measures should therefore not be regarded as a replacement for measures as
