9. Tight focus on SG&A developments
Interim Report Q2 2012
15 August 2012Interim Report Q2 2012 9
SG&A ratio down from unacceptable high level in Q1’12
Increase in SG&A vs. last year partly due to:
Acquisitions (DKK ~60m in H1’12)
High tender activity leading to increasing proposal costs
- adding to costs now, but revenue later
Additionally, SG&A included costs of non-recurring
nature amounting to DKK ~100m in H1’12:
Implementation of new strategy and organization
Business alignment related to roll out of global ERP business
system
Transaction and integration costs in connection with
acquisitions
Initiatives put in place to manage SG&A more closely:
Cost awareness program
Systematic cost level targets and closer monitoring of non-
recurrent costs

Interim Report Q2 2012
15 August 2012Interim Report Q2 2012 10
Q2 results include a one-off write-down of
capitalized R&D costs and decommissioning
costs amounting to DKK 188m
Related to R&D project in ground-breaking
new technology
Important milestones have been met and
patents have been taken out..
..but commercial tests have not been able to
demonstrate acceptable results
R&D project related to Cement, Non-Ferrous
and Customer Services and the write-down
will negatively impact EBIT in each of the
three divisions by approximately DKK 60m
11. CFFO adversely impacted by increase in working capital of DKK 191m in Q2
CFFI amounted to DKK -386m in Q2 related to acquisition of Process Engineering Resources Inc.
and Knelson Russia as well as tangible assets in connection with ongoing strategic activities
Temporary slow down in acquisitions except for smaller bolt-on in coming quarters
Cash flow from operating and investing activities

Working capital (quarterly)
+154% vs. Q2 2011DKKm
Working capital increased 10% in Q2 to DKK 2,117m
Structural reasons for increase in working capital:
Strategic initiatives in Customer Services
Change in business mix towards more mining and less cement
Specific reasons for increase in inventory in Q2 2012
Increasing inventories to reduce delivery lead times in product
companies
Reduction in Work-in-progress net (liability) caused by high level
of execution and increase in prepayments to subcontractors
Initiatives put in place in Q2 to manage working capital
more closely:
Monthly reporting, monitoring and follow-up on KPIs
Systematic NWC responsibility in the global organisation
Specific initiatives launched in relation to accounts receivables,
account payables, inventories, etc.

Interim Report Q2 2012
15 August 2012Interim Report Q2 2012 14
Acquistion of Ludowici finalised on 3 July 2012
Completes FLSmidth’s concentrator flowsheet used in copper,
gold and other base metals. Enhances coal preparation and
iron ore proprietary technology packages which now cover
most key production steps
Enterprise value AUD 388m (DKK 2.3bn) equivalent to implicit
EV/EBITDA multiple of 13.4x based on 2011 proforma result of
AUD 29m (including full year effect of the acquisitions Meshcape and Amseal)
Estimated effect of Ludowici in H2 2012:
Revenue DKK 0.8bn
EBITA margin 9.2%
Group one-off transaction costs DKK 35m
Effect of purchase price allocations DKK -40m
NIBD DKK 2.3bn
Ludowici will be included evenly in Non-Ferrous and Customer
Services
Substantial sales synergies expected to be achieved over the
next couple of years
15. Market trends
Interim Report Q2 2012
15 August 2012Interim Report Q2 2012 15
Continued strong underlying demand and order intake
- particularly in Non-Ferrous
No significant changes in project pipeline or ongoing
dialogue with customers
However, mining capex outlook appears to have
deteriorated in the short term due to increased
macroeconomic uncertainty
Installation of new mining capacity is currently challenged by
lengthy permitting processes, budget overruns and
slightly tighter financing
Long term prospects remain encouraging
In Cement, proposal activity is high in many parts of the
World. Inquiry levels and tender activity have even started
to pick up in India
18. Strong order intake reflects good market conditions and high capacity utilisation throughout the
non-ferrous industries and in certain regions of the cement business
Clear pattern of increasing quarterly revenue over the calendar year
O&M contracts progressing well and Supercenter build-out in line with plans
Strong growth in order intake and revenue

15 August 2012Interim Report Q2 2012 22
Bulk Materials Handling business facing challenges related to difficulties in project
execution...
..stemming from underestimated risks in connection with orders received in previous years...
..combined with lack of timely handling and mitigation hereof
A number of initiatives have been put in place, including:
Transfer of project management know-how and best practices from other divisions
New division head and member of Group Executive Management, Carsten Lund took office on 1
July 2012 and has relocated to Wadgassen in Germany, where the Material Handling Technology
Centre is based
Strengthened divisional Management Group
Based on the new management’s assessments, expectations to profitability in 2012 have been
changed from “Stable” to “Decreasing” relative to last year’s EBITA margin of 4.5%
