Report this content

The launch of a new model program and the first commercial sales of an AxoPur system represent a take-off into the future for Axolot

Summary of the third quarter 2020

Financially

  • Net sales amounted to 621 tsek (485 tsek for the corresponding quarter in 2019), referring to trial runs mainly in Sweden and Finland.
  • Other revenues were -3 tsek (3).
  • Earnings before interest and tax became -4 356 tsek (-5 506), where the improved results relate to an increase in trial runs and to effects from Axolot’s Covid-19 related restructuring measures on the cost side.
  • Net earnings per share amounted to -0,16 sek (-0,21).
  • Liquid funds were 6 783 tsek at the end of September 2020.

Operationally

  • Axolot received its first order for an AxoPur® wastewater purification unit, to Colombier Barrier Coatings in Finland. The delivery is planned for the fourth quarter 2020.
  • Two trial agreements were signed, with Finnish customers within the energy and the construction material sectors respectively.
  • Axolot launched a model program, offering three different levels of automation – fully automated systems to be integrated in a supervisory control system in a bigger process industry; semi-automated systems suitable for industries with regular water purification needs; and manual systems more suited for irregular purification needs with manual supervision.

January - September 2020

  • Net sales for the first nine months 2020 were 2 365 tsek (1 261 for the corresponding period in 2019), which means the invoicing nearly doubled compared to previous year. 
  • Other revenues were 454 tsek (110), which mainly refers to additional subsidies from a Finnish agricultural authority, for a water purification project that was initiated in 2019. 
  • Results before interest and tax for the first nine months of the year were -15 902 tsek (-18 779).
