Announcement
To Nasdaq Copenhagen A/S and the press
Noerresundby, Denmark, 7 July 2022
Announcement no. 13/2022
RTX upgrades its revenue expectations and specifies its earnings expectations for the financial year 2021/22 due to a solid delivery performance and a continued strong order intake.
The expected revenue in 2021/22 is upgraded from previously above DKK 520 million to now DKK 550 to 610 million. The increase in expected revenue reflects the strong demand situation and the relatively wide interval for the expected revenue reflects the continued significant uncertainty on the global electronics supply markets from component shortages and other supply challenges.
The expected EBITDA is specified from previously above DKK 50 million to now DKK 50 to 70 million and the expected EBIT from previously above DKK 10 million to now DKK 10 to 30 million. The adjustments in the expected earnings levels are driven by the expected revenue and gross margin levels where revenue is higher but where the gross margin is negatively impacted by the product mix expected to be realized given the component shortages and by the need to secure components in the spot buy market and through other channels.
