Events

• In June, GomSpace signed a contract to deliver two 12-unit CubeSats to the German Space Agency, DLR. The CubeSats will be used as research objects by DLR’s Responsive Space Cluster Competence Center, RSC3, in Trauen, Germany. The contract value is 13 MSEK, and delivery will be in January 2023
• In June, an extraordinary general meeting was held in GomSpace Group AB (publ) to discharge Jesper Jespersen, upon his request, from the board of directors and to elect Kenn Herskind as a new board member
• In July, GomSpace received an authorization to proceed (ATP) from Unseen Labs to initiate the production of key products for an upcoming satellite project. The ATP value is 12 MSEK, and the products are expected to be delivered end of 2022

“In the second quarter, the order intake was M.SEK 44. The majority of orders were with high product content where we have a high margin. Revenue was M.SEK 52, an improvement from last year's M.SEK 48.

Cash flow from primary operating activities was negative M.SEK 44 due to changes and delayed payments in one single large commercial project.

We continue to see a strong financial performance in delivering platforms, payloads and subsystems. However, this is not enough to offset the increased cost of completing one large commercial project and a few other scientific satellite solutions with a high degree of non-recurring engineering. Furthermore, we continue to tie up working capital due to the same large commercial customer and fewer than expected prepayments from scientific orders.

Overall financial performance in the first half of 2022 improved from last year, and we maintain our full-year 2022 guidance since we expect the second half of 2022 financials to improve.” CEO Niels Buus commented.
