    “2022 has been a year of unprecedented economic and geopolitical instability. Cost inflation, supply chain disruptions and COVID lockdowns in China impacted our activities.Especially in these turbulent times, we continued to execute our strategic agenda. Given the expected strong increase in demand, the Board of Directors yesterday validated an investment in a new production facility for our Zirfon green hydrogen membranes in our Belgian site in Mortsel. We finalized the acquisition of Inca Digital Printers, which strengthens our position in high-speed digital printing and speeds up our entry in digital packaging printing. In HealthCare IT, we stepped up investments in R&D and commercial resources and we established a new management team, focusing on the core North American markets. The sale of our Offset Solutions division to Aurelius Group, which is expected to close early April, should enable us to increase the focus on our growth businesses. In our efforts to build a simple, agile and future-oriented organizational model, we re-organized our internal financial services and partnered with Atos for our internal IT operations. Our 2023 priorities are the implementation of further price increases across our businesses, the reduction of costs related to our operating model initiatives, and to deliver growth in HealthCare IT, Zirfon and digital printing,” said Pascal Juéry, President and CEO of the Agfa-Gevaert Group.

    Full year

    • The HealthCare IT and Digital Print & Chemicals divisions posted sales growth excluding currency impact. Mainly due to price increases, Offset Solutions’ top line remained stable and Radiology Solutions’ medical film business was heavily impacted by the COVID lockdowns in China.
    • The Group’s gross profit margin remained stable at 28.5% of revenue, mainly due to price increase actions to tackle the strong impact of cost inflation and supply chain issues.
    • Adjusted EBITDA was influenced by inflationary pressure, disrupted supply chains and industrial inefficiencies in Q4.
    • On top of heavy transformation efforts, impairments in Radiology Solutions (73 million Euro) and Offset Solutions (41 million Euro) had a strong impact on restructuring and non-recurring items, resulting in a charge of 192 million Euro, versus 33 million Euro in 2021.
    • The net finance costs amounted to 19 million Euro.
    • Income tax expenses increased to 42 million Euro versus 15 million Euro in 2021, primarily driven by additional tax expenses related to the Offset Solutions carve-out and the impairment of deferred tax assets related to the performance of Radiology Solutions and the Offset Solutions transaction.
    • The Agfa-Gevaert Group posted a net loss of 223 million Euro.

    Fourth quarter

    • The HealthCare IT division continued to post strong sales figures, whereas the Offset Solutions division and several activities of the Digital Print & Chemicals division continued to feel the impact of the weaker economic conditions. In the Radiology Solutions division, the medical film business started to recover from the impact of the COVID lockdowns in China.
    • Although impacted by manufacturing inefficiencies and cost inflation, the Group’s gross profit margin improved to 27.5% of revenue thanks to all pricing actions.

    Financial position and cash flow

    • Net financial debt (including IFRS 16) evolved from a net cash position of 325 million Euro at the end of 2021 to a net cash position of 72 million Euro, as it was partially impacted by the Inca acquisition and the share buy-back program.
    • Although the Group was able to reduce trade working capital from 31% of turnover in Q3 2022 to 28% in Q4, this is still an increase versus the end of 2021 (26%). In absolute numbers, trade working capital evolved from 449 million Euro at the end of 2021 to 523 million Euro, including an effect of Inca at year-end (19 million Euro).
    • In the full year 2022, the Group used a free cash flow of 127 million Euro. In the fourth quarter, the free cash flow amounted to minus 2 million Euro.
    • After a first pension buy-in transaction for the UK pension plan in 2021, an additional buy-in transaction has taken place which leads to a full de-risking of the UK pension plan, without additional cash contributions.
    • A strong decrease in net pension liability (material countries) was recorded: positive impact of 177 million Euro versus the end of 2021.

    Outlook
    Overall, the Agfa-Gevaert Group expects a recovery in profitability in the full year 2023 versus 2022.

    2023 outlook per division:

    • HealthCare IT: The division’s growth strategy is expected to deliver top line growth, as well as double-digit adjusted EBITDA growth in 2023.
    • Radiology Solutions: Stability is expected, with continuous margin pressure for medical film. The progress in Direct Radiography that was recorded in the second half of 2022 is expected to continue.
    • Digital Print & Chemicals: The division expects to restore profitability, based on pricing, cost improvement actions and positive contributions from the Inca acquisition and the Zirfon membranes. The revenue generated by Zirfon will continue to grow very strongly.

    Full year

    • HealthCare IT’s order book remains at a very healthy level. The division recorded a 18% growth in the 12 months rolling order intake versus the year before, with high value business (own software) increasing with 23%.
    • Due to increased momentum in the second half of the year, the HealthCare IT division’s top line increased in North America and Europe versus the previous year. The growth was driven by the revenue recognition from a number of important contracts, as well as a stabilization of recurring revenue.
    • Impacted by the strong post-COVID cost inflation, the division’s gross profit margin decreased from 46.5% of revenue in 2021 to 45.2%. The adjusted EBITDA margin decreased from 13.8% to 11.0%. In 2022 the division also stepped up its investments in R&D and commercial resources to grow the business.
    • The KLAS Research 2022 Europe PACS report named Agfa HealthCare among top performers in terms of customer satisfaction. In the report, Agfa HealthCare is confirmed to have one of the most expansive footprints, with strong customer bases.
    • Recently, Agfa HealthCare has been recognized as Best in KLAS for its Enterprise Imaging for Radiology solution in the PACS Middle East/Africa category. This achievement is a sign of Agfa HealthCare’s focus on delivering high value and support to its customers in the region.
    • 2022 was a year of consolidation, as the focus turned towards profitable growth. As shown by the positive development of the order intake, the division’s strategy to target customer segments and geographies for which its Enterprise Imaging solution is best fit and to prioritize higher value revenue streams is working and delivering. This strategy will ultimately allow the division to reach the targeted growth of EBITDA: starting from a mid-single-digit percentage in 2019 to percentages in the high-teens over the next years.

    Fourth quarter

    • North America continued to perform well in the fourth quarter and Europe, LATAM and ASPAC posted significant sales growth.
    • Impacted by cost inflation, the gross profit margin evolved from 50.3% in the very strong fourth quarter of 2021 to 45.1%.
    • Adjusted EBITDA improved quarter-over-quarter, reaching 15.8% of revenue in the fourth quarter.
    • Introducing its new ‘That’s life in flow’ tagline, Agfa HealthCare showcased how its Enterprise Imaging solution creates an optimal work experience for radiologists at the RSNA 2022 event in Chicago. Visitors were able to experience how the Enterprise Imaging platform delivers ‘Life in flow’ to meet radiologists’ daily challenges through a highly focused, efficient, and customizable experience.
    • As result of the strong momentum built up at the RSNA event, the North America team was able to generate additional business in December.

    Full year

    • Mainly in China, the medical film business was impacted by the COVID lockdowns. The current geopolitical situation and slower than normal volumes in some export markets also had an impact.
    • The market driven top line decline for the Computed Radiography business was further amplified by the current geopolitical situation and component shortages. Agfa continues to manage the CR business to maintain healthy profit margins.
    • Following a number of slower quarters, the Direct Radiography business’ revenue started to pick up in the second half of the year. Strong sales growth was recorded in ASPAC and LATAM. In a number of countries in those regions, first-of-a-kind installations were realized with several systems, including high-end modalities and the recently introduced VALORY X-ray room. Recently, the DR market saw the entry of several new competitors with low-cost solutions.
      The order book for DR remains strong, with continuously longer conversion lead times affected by the supply chain environments.
    • Agfa is taking actions (right-sizing of the organization, relocations, costs control actions, price increases, net working capital actions) to increase the business’ agility and to better adapt it to the current market conditions.
    • The division’s full year profitability was affected by volume decreases, mix effects and cost inflation.

    Fourth quarter

    • While China continued to be impacted by issues related to COVID-19, the medical film business performed well in most other regions. The Direct Radiography range continued the top line growth that was initiated in the third quarter.
    • Based on pricing and cost control actions in all business lines, the division’s profitability improved significantly versus the previous quarters of 2022.

    Full year

    • In the field of digital print, the top line of the sign & display business grew strongly. The ink product ranges for sign & display applications performed well throughout the year. In spite of industry-wide logistic challenges for the high-end equipment, the wide-format printing equipment business posted solid revenue growth. In the field of industrial inkjet, the décor printing business was impacted by the weakening economic environment, as customers are postponing investments in their digitization process. Volumes for OEM inks decreased due to the lockdowns in China, the unstable geopolitical situation and the weak economic environment.
    • At the Fespa trade show on June 1, 2022 Agfa announced the closing of the acquisition of Inca Digital Printers, a UK based leading developer and manufacturer of advanced high speed printing and production technologies for sign and display applications as well as for the rapidly growing digital printing market for packaging. Integration has been completed and the first contracts have been signed for the first Agfa ink-powered and Agfa-branded Onset wide-format machines. The development of Inca’s Speedset single-pass packaging printer is proceeding as planned. The machine is generating strong interest among potential customers.
    • In 2022, no less than five of Agfa’s inkjet printing solutions have been honored with a Pinnacle Product Award from PRINTING United Alliance. The Pinnacle Product Awards recognize products that improve or advance the printing industry with exceptional contributions in quality, capability, and productivity. PRINTING United Alliance is the most comprehensive member-based printing and graphic arts association in the United States.
    • Sales figures for the Zirfon membranes for advanced alkaline electrolysis are growing according to plan and production was ramped up to a steady regime. In 2022, the number of active customers for Zirfon has increased to over 100. March 7, 2023, the Board of Directors validated an investment for a new industrial unit for the Zirfon membranes at Agfa’s Mortsel site in Belgium. This will allow the Group to be ready for the expected further increase in customer demand. In October, Agfa received the prestigious essenscia Innovation Award 2022 for its Zirfon UTP 220 membrane technology. Essenscia is the Belgian sector federation of the chemical industry and life sciences.
    • The weakness in the electronics industry and lockdowns in China impacted volumes of the Orgacon conductive materials and the products for the production of printed circuit boards.
    • Agfa’s specialty film and foil products business remained stable versus 2021.
    • Mainly due to strong cost inflation, lower volumes for certain businesses (including industrial inkjet and products for the electronics industry) caused by COVID lockdowns in China and logistic challenges, the division’s gross profit margin decreased from 26.3% of revenue in 2021 to 24.9%. In the fourth quarter, additional cost reduction measures have been taken to adjust to the economic reality.
    • As price actions did not yet suffice to tackle cost inflation in 2022, Agfa implements double-digit price increases across its Digital Print & Chemicals portfolio worldwide, effective January 1st, 2023.

    Fourth quarter

    • The fourth quarter was marked by a contrasted top line performance between the various activities. The division’s revenue increase was driven by the strong sales figures of the sign & display business.
    • Mainly impacted by manufacturing inefficiencies and one-off effects, mix effects and cost inflation (including additional wage indexation in Belgium), the division’s gross profit margin decreased from 22.2% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2021 to 18.7%.

    Full year

    • The division continued to focus on high-value regions, concentrating on margins rather than volumes. In spite of the lower volumes, the successful implementation of price increases to tackle the overall cost inflation, among others for raw materials, packaging and freight led to top line growth.
    • Although affected by cost inflation, the gross profit margin improved from 20.4% of revenue in 2021 to 22.7% due to the implemented price adjustments and the focus on high-value regions.
    • Adjusted EBITDA improved strongly to 35.7 million Euro.
    • In August 2022, the Agfa-Gevaert Group has signed a share purchase agreement with Aurelius Group for the sale of its Offset Solutions division. Both parties aim to complete the transaction in the first week of April 2023. Aside from the charges taken in 2022 (mainly the impairment loss of 41 million Euro), an additional P&L impact is to be expected in H1 2023 of about 45-60 million Euro, mainly depending on the levels of working capital at closing.

    Fourth quarter

    • Reflecting the weaker economic environment and the resulting strong volume decrease in Europe, the division booked a moderate revenue decrease versus the fourth quarter of 2021, which benefited strongly from price increase actions.
