EBIT leap in a challenging
first half-year thanks to gain from the SteelcoBelimed joint venture
The Metall Zug Group posted net sales of CHF 181.2 million in the first half of 2024 (previous year: CHF 228.4 million). Thanks to the gain in connection with the joint venture between Belimed and Steelco, the operating result (EBIT) rose to CHF 60.4 million (previous year: CHF 6.9 million). The financial result amounted to CHF - 1.4 million (previous year: CHF 8.7 million) and net income stood at CHF 56.6 million (previous year: CHF 12.6 million).
Dear Shareholders
Metall Zug achieved another milestone in the first half of 2024, which was challenging in many respects. The new joint venture, SteelcoBelimed, was able to commence its operating activities and is now working on the specific target picture with regard to the offering and organizational structure in the areas of Infection Control and Life Science, which will be communicated in September 2024. After the respective relevant authorities granted their merger clearance for the joint venture between Metall Zug and Miele, the transaction was closed on June 7, 2024. Metall Zug contributed its Infection Control Business Unit and the Belimed Life Science Group, and Miele its Steelco Group, into the joint venture. Metall Zug remains invested in the combined company in the long term, and holds a 33 % stake in SteelcoBelimed.
The Infection Control Business Unit and the Belimed Life Science Group were fully consolidated in the financial
statementsof the Metall Zug Group until June 7, 2024. Since then, Metall Zug AG's share in the net income of the SteelcoBelimed Group has been reported in the financial result of Metall Zug AG. Metall Zug generated a one-off and EBIT- relevant book gain of CHF 66.6 million from the transaction.
In the first half of 2024, the Metall Zug Group generated net sales of CHF 181.2 million (previous year: CHF 228.4
million). Taking into account the divestment effects of CHF - 19.9 million (- 8.7 %) in connection with the no longer included share of sales from Belimed Infection Control and Belimed Life Science (deconsolidated as of June 7, 2024), and excluding currency effects of CHF - 3.1 million (- 1.4 %), this translates into an organic decline of 10.6 %. The negative deviation from the previous year is mainly attributable to the
Infection Control and Medical Devices Business Units, which had considerably lower order backlogs at the beginning of the year in comparison with the previous year. The Others reporting segment also recorded a decline in sales. This is due to Belimed Life Science which, despite a high order backlog, reported lower net sales owing to the staggered scheduling of the project pipeline and project delays on the customer side.
EBIT for the reporting period came to CHF 60.4 million and was thus significantly higher than the previous year's figure of CHF 6.9 million. The sharp increase is a result of the book gain of CHF 66.6 million from the combination of Belimed (Infection Control and Life Science) and Steelco. Adjusted for this one-time effect, EBIT declined by CHF 13.2 million on a like-for-like basis. The main reason for this is the significantly lower operating result of Medical Devices.
The financial result amounted to CHF - 1.4 million (previous year: CHF 8.7 million) and includes the proportional net income of the V-ZUG Group (30 % share), the Komax Group (25 % share) and,

GROUP REPORT
since June 7, 2024, the SteelcoBelimed Group (33 % share). Net income rose considerably to CHF 56.6 million (previous year: CHF 12.6 million), primarily due to the aforementioned book gain from the combination of Belimed and Steelco.
Despite negative EBIT (before the book gain), it was possible to generate a positive cash flow from operating activities amounting to CHF 6.7 million (previous year: CHF 6.9 million) thanks to the reduction of net working capital.
Net debt (cash and cash equivalents and securities less short- and long-term financial liabilities) increased by CHF 20.1 million and came to CHF 26.9 million as at June 30, 2024 (December 31, 2023: CHF 6.8 million). The increase was mainly the result of continued high investments in the real estate projects of the Technologycluster & Infrastructure Business Unit. The Metall Zug Group still has a solid balance sheet, with shareholders' equity of CHF 497.4 million, which translates into an equity ratio of 80.5 % (December 31, 2023: 75.5 %).
Infection Control: Normalization of Demand with a Decline in Sales
The Infection Control Business Unit (Belimed Group) generated net sales of CHF 68.7 million, which is lower than the previous year's level of CHF 88.5 million. It should be noted that in 2024, only net sales up to the date of deconsolidation, June 7, 2024, are included. Taking into account this divestment effect amounting to CHF - 14.9 million (- 16.8 %) and excluding currency effects totaling CHF - 1.9 million (- 2.1 %), this translates to a - 3.5 % decline in organic sales.
Following the catch-up effect as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021 / 2022 and the downturn in 2023, demand normalized again in the first half of 2024. The Equipment business recorded a higher order intake than in the prior-year period. Nevertheless, sales were below the previous year's level owing to the low order backlog at the beginning of the year. The lower sales volumes to
Belimed Life Science (included in the Others reporting segment) also contributed to the negative deviation in sales. However, the Digital business area experienced strong sales growth, driven by the more than 1 000 devices now connected to the SmartHub digital platform. The Service and Consumables business areas were also able to generate moderate growth.
At CHF - 3.9 million, EBIT for the first half of 2024 is above the prior-year level of CHF - 4.4 million. Despite adjustments to the cost structure in the Marketing & Sales, Research & Development, and Administration functions, EBIT again fell short of the profit zone owing to the decline in sales.
On the product side, Belimed launched the "MSTV Groundloader" sterilizer, which was specially developed for the US market. It is designed to facilitate efficient, seamless loading and unloading at ground level, eliminating the time-consuming transfer of sterilized goods between the transport carts and the sterilizer. This ensures optimized work processes and thus improves operational efficiency in hos- pitals. The Remote Diagnosis pilot project was launched on the software side. Using the SmartHub digital solution should enable faster reaction times for customer support requests while also reducing the travel and work time.
Medical Devices: Regressive Sales Development Despite Noticeable Recovery in US Order Intake
In the first half of 2024, the Medical Devices Business Unit (Haag-Streit Group) posted lower year-on-year net sales of CHF 81.6 million (previous year: CHF 93.9 million). Adjusted for the currency effect of - 1.2 %, the organic decline in sales amounted to - 11.8 %.
Macroeconomic conditions are subduing the global market situation, meaning that investments in premium products manufactured by Haag-Streit are increasingly being post- poned. Nevertheless, business in the General Diagnostics area exceeded expectations. In the key US market in particular,
Metall Zug Group Half-year Report 2024 | 3 |
GROUP REPORT
Haag-Streit recorded an improvement in order intake as a result of the low inventory levels of distributors. However, this will only lead to a slight increase in sales in the second half of 2024. The lower sales in the first half of 2024 are largely attributable to the Simulation and Biometry areas, where demand was down year-on-year.
As a result of the lower sales volume, EBIT amounted to CHF 2.4 million in the first half of the year (previous year: CHF 12.6 million), which is well below the prior-year figure (- 81.3 %). Increased expenditure in the Marketing & Sales and Research & Development areas also impacted the result. Cost savings in other areas could only compensate for this to a limited extent.
Investments in research and development have been systematically increased in recent years and intensive work has been carried out on the development of new products. This enabled Haag-Streit to launch a new product onto the market in the first half of 2024 with the IM 910 - 3D imaging module. This enables eye specialists to conduct slit lamp examinations in an ergonomic position on a 3D monitor. Image and video recordings in 3D are just two of many additional features. Towards the end of this year, a new ophthalmological microscope is also expected to be introduced to the market. This is a high-quality surgical microscope that can be enhanced and upgraded to a digital 3D microscope. The new product is the first result of the significant increase in R&D activities in recent years. The fruits of these efforts will be continuously visible from the end of this year through further planned launches of various innovations.
Technologycluster & Infrastructure: Progress in the Development of Real Estate Projects, the Site Network and Infrastructure
Generally speaking, the market situation in the construction sector is tense owing to the development of material prices over the last three years. This is putting pressure on construction costs and, consequently, project budgets.
Nevertheless,the Technologycluster & Infrastructure
Business Unit was able to increase EBIT to CHF 1.7 million in the first half of 2024 compared to the previous year of CHF 0.8 million.
In the first half of 2024, further progress was made on the development of real estate projects, the site network and infrastructure at the Tech Cluster Zug.
As of mid-2026, the SHL-Südtor building will serve as the new international headquarters and production site for SHL Medical. The site will now offer space for around 600 employees (previous assumption approx. 400). The project
is currently in the realization phase. The foundation stone of the building was officially laid on May 23, 2024 and heralds the opening of the site for new industrial enterprises, technology-related services, start-ups, and research and educational institutions at the future Tech Cluster Zug.
Project planning for the Project Pi timber high-rise, which will primarily offer affordable housing, has resumed end of 2023. The first reading by the legislative branch of the city council took place on January 23 of this year. The second reading is scheduled to take place in September 2024. As this housing project is "moving" the City of Zug in various dimensions, the Tech Cluster Zug is looking for a direct exchange with the neighborhood and the wider population. To this end, an information event titled "Aus erster Hand - Wohnhaus Pi" ("First-hand - residential building Pi") was held on June 25, 2024. Among others, architect Barbara Strub, expert adjudicator for this pro- ject, gave some insights into the adjudication process and presented the winning project. Afterwards, the GEWOBA cooperative outlined its reasons for investing in 70 of the 184 apartments.
Hall 11 on the Tech Cluster Zug site that became vacant has been converted into an affordable space for culture and will be used by creative artists as a studio, as a display area for Kunsthaus Zug, and for events. The construction work was

GROUP REPORT
carried out in February and March of this year, and the space was handed over to the KunstCluster Zug sponsorship organization in April. The KunstCluster was opened on July 2, 2024, as part of an evening event. Local and international artists presented their works, film screenings took place, and well- known people from the worlds of art, culture and politics
made public appearances. Visitors were able to move around between the different areas of the hall and also take the opportunity to get creative themselves. The KunstCluster Zug is intended to serve as a stage that will breathe life into the Tech Cluster Zug and make it more accessible to the public.
In the context of the Greenhouse Gas Fund (GHG Fund), the fund management received a total of twelve financing applications from all the Metall Zug Group Business Units, nine of which were approved. In 2024, more than CHF 1.6 million from the GHG Fund will thus be invested in projects that promote the circular economy, increase the energy efficiency of products, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from service activities. Moreover, some of this money will flow into internal projects for negative emissions technologies, green energy projects, and the methane pyrolysis project by the Association for the Decarbonization of the Industry.
The fund managementand the relevant project managers met on June 3, 2024, and made a joint statement concluding that all ongoing projects are making good progress.
Reporting Segment Others
The Others reporting segment groups together the Belimed Life
Science Group, Gehrig Group AG and Metall Zug AG (Corporate) . On June 7, 2024, the Belimed Life Science Group was transferred to the newly founded joint venture SteelcoBelimed, which is why the group was only fully consolidated up to this date (divestment effect of net sales compared to the previous year: CHF - 5.0 million). The reporting segment posted net sales of CHF 32.8 million in the first half of 2024 (previous year: CHF 50.1 million) and an operating result of CHF 60.2 million (previous year: CHF - 2.1 million). The significant increase in the operating result is primarily a result of the
aforementioned book gain amounting to CHF 66.6 million from the combination of Belimed and Steelco.
The Belimed Life Science Group generated considerably lower net sales in the first half of 2024 than in the first six months of the previous year. One reason for this is the declining demand for sterilizers. Another is that the strong demand for washers, as well as delays on the part of some customers, led to scheduling challenges in processing the project pipeline.
Overall, the general mood in the Pharma and Life Science sector remains optimistic. While demand in Europe remains high, an investment backlog is increasingly noticeable in the USA. This is a consequence of the prevailing high construction costs for production facilities and the high interest rates. Furthermore, the competitive situation with regard to pharmaceutical registrations, especially for drugs to treat cancer, Alzheimer's and obesity, is causing pharmaceutical companies to invest more in research and development as well as
in marketing and sales. This growing pressure on costs and margins is pushing many large pharmaceutical companies to pursue cost-cutting programs, which is leading to the postponement of investment decisions.
Owing to lower net sales, the operating result (EBIT) in the first half of the year was below that of the previous year, and thus missed the profit zone. The underutilization of production capacity for sterilizers also affected margins.
With regard to the product portfolio, Belimed Life Science has improved the capabilities of its service organization by adding new service components. Accordingly, growth in this area is above expectations. The PST.2 sterilizer, a further development of the existing PST and BST steam sterilizers, was successfully launched onto the market in April 2023. To boost its global competitiveness, Belimed presented the PST.2 with the B-Touch MAX user interface and other new functions at the ACHEMA trade fair in June 2024. In addition, Belimed Life Science was able to launch onto the market a

new modular software solution for visualizing and structuring automation solutions based on Siemens Unify and FactoryTalk.
Gehrig Group AG is a leading supplier of dishwashers, thermal cooking equipment and cleaning agents as well as related services for the catering and hotel sectors in Switzer- land. Switzerland's catering industry is under pressure, as the current rise in interest rates is making it difficult for catering businesses to obtain loans and, in addition, some COVID-19 loans are still being repaid. As a result, purchase decisions are frequently being postponed to a later date. In the case of catering services in the healthcare sector in particular, additional cost-cutting measures are currently in place to recoup losses from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Gehrig Group increased sales in the first half of 2024, despite the challenging market environment and the discontinuation of the "Care and Hygiene" division in 2023 and the "Coffee" division at the beginning of this year. The increase can be attributed in particular to additional revenues in the "Customer Service" and "Thermal Cooking Appliances" division. This development was also favored by the inclusion of UNOX products in the product range, with initial sales in spring 2024. UNOX is an Italian manufacturer of professional commercial ovens, combi-steam ovens (gas or electric) and speed ovens.
This positive trend was curbed by the ongoing shortage of skilled workers, both in terms of own service technicians and among customers for catering staff. Although this situation appears to be slowly easing, there is still a lack of staff capacity to process service orders.
Despite the favorable sales trend, EBIT failed to enter the profit zone. Costs associated with the discontinuation of the "Coffee" division and for ongoing digitalization projects
that promise efficiency gains in the coming years had a negative impact on the result.
Outlook
It is difficult to issue a guidance for the second half of 2024, particularly due to the economical and political uncertainties. Order intake in the Medical Devices Business Unit increased slightly in the first half of 2024 compared to the prior-year period, thus a slight increase in sales can be expected for the second half of the year. Owing to the continuing high cost base in the area of research and development, the Metall Zug Group's overall operating result (EBIT) is expected to remain flat in the second half of the year.
