Revenues in the amount of € 44.2 million in the first half of 2022 exceeded the comparable figure of € 25.9 million in the previous year. In the second quarter of 2022, sales of € 22.8 million (previous year: € 11.0 million) were realized.

The second quarter of 2022 was positive with earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of € 1.4 million (previous year: € -5.0 million). EBIT in the first half of 2022 improved and reached € 1.5 million (previous year: € -8.2 million).

In the first half of 2022, the gross margin was at the level of the previous year and amounted to 26.8% (previous year: 26.6%). Freely available liquidity was stable and amounted to € 14.8 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to € 14.9 million as of December 31, 2021. Order intake in the reporting period reached € 33.5 million. Order intake in the comparable period of 2021 was €36.0 million. In the 2nd quarter, order intake amounted to €27.1 million (previous year: €28.0 million). The order backlog increased further and reached €104.0 million (June 30, 2022) : €86.4 million).

The number of employees as of June 30, 2022 in the SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES Group remained at a constant level of 335 employees compared with the previous year (December 31, 2021: 333 employees).

According to IFRS, SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES expects an increase in sales and earnings figures for the current year 2022 compared with the past business years 2020 and 2021. Dr. Stefan Rinck, CEO SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES: "Despite the persistently difficult environment, in particular in connection with disrupted supply chains and the Russia-Ukraine war, we also expect the operating earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) to develop positively for the current year"

Dr. Rinck continues, "Achieving these improved financial ratios is contingent on business activities in all segments developing according to plan. However, the Russia-Ukraine war could have a negative impact on the development of sales, production processes, and purchasing and logistics processes, for example due to interruptions in the supply chains or bottleneck situations for components as well as raw materials and intermediates."
