CEO Comments

We continue to build a strong foundation for delivery on our goals. On the 18th of May Smart Wires was listed on the Nasdaq First North Growth Market. An important step in the Smart Wires journey, allowing access to funds for working capital, R&D and growth. During the quarter we have successfully delivered several projects across the world and increased our pipeline from $2.0 billions at the start of Q2, to $2.3 billions. Our revenue was $22.5 million for H1-21, a $18.8 million and 515% increase year-over-year. In our first six-month of operation during 2021, we have already surpassed the 2020 annual revenue by $7.1 million or a 45% increase from the $15.4 million earned in 2020.

Climate change is a far reaching, and critical topic. Perhaps the most important subject many of us will deal with in our lives. One critical area is Energy Transition, the movement of energy generation away from fossil-based fuel sources and harmful processes, towards renewable fuel sources, like solar and wind, with more efficient use and conservation, leveraged across multiple sectors that are electrified in order to create a sustainable and circular economy for green energy. The ability to modernize the Grid is a fundamental and critical need that can be addressed with Grid Enhancing Technology (GET) like the SmartValve™. Smart Wires has developed a key digital technology and evolved the right solution mix to rapidly enhance the grid, and drive the inflexion point we see today for the grid, the world, and our business.
