GomSpace A/S and Aerial & Maritime Ltd. enters Settlement Agreement and cancel spin-out project
GomSpace (GS) and Aerial & Maritime (A&M) have agreed on a settlement and release of any potential claims and commitments of each party in connection with the original agreement from 2016.
A&M was established as a spin-out project from GomSpace. The objective of A&M was to own and operate a constellation of nanosatellites to be launched into a low-inclination Equatorial orbit for monitoring the whereabouts of civilian aircraft and vessels. The main shareholders of A&M were GomSpace Group and the Investment Fund for Developing Countries (IFU).
As a result of the settlement, the parties will start the process of solvent liquidation of A&M. GomSpace will have full ownership of the eight satellites, which have already been built.
The financial impact of the settlement will be a depreciation in equity interest in A&M of around 12 MSEK and a reduction in backlog of around 14 MSEK. The settlement will be reported in the Q2 interim report and it will have no effect on revenue outlook for 2020.
