CEO’s statement
The company's sales ofSEK 41 million during the quarter are the highest in the company's history, sales growth is 250% compared to the same period last year. The sales for the full year amount toSEK 101 million , which is a sales growth of 126% compared to the full year 2021. We have continued to focus on increasing the delivery capacity to convert the order book to turnover faster. Furthermore, I am once again happy that the company continues to deliver a positive result ofSEK 363 thousand and a positive cash flow ofSEK 986 thousand from ongoing operations during the quarter.The order intake of 121 million is more than twice as high as the previous year, which also results in the order book at the end of the year reaching new record levels and landing at201 million kroner . Furthermore, during December, the company received an order ofSEK 88 million from SBB, which is the company's latest framework agreement, it is satisfactory that we have now started with this framework agreement after a dispute about the outcome of the procurement where the court ruled everything in our favor.The lack of IC components and increased raw material and fuel prices have continued to drive up our production costs during the year. This results in a gross margin of 31% during the year, which is 3 percentage points lower than the previous year (34%).During December, we carried out an ownership spread through Avanza which was oversubscribed and with this spread the company gained 2,300 new owners, the total number of shareholders as of the balance sheet date was 3,653. As announced during the process, parts of the spread were made with new shares as the company is not in need of working capital.Furthermore, at the end of the quarter, the company signed an extension of our framework agreement withTelenor . In this extension, we have been able to adjust our sales prices to compensate for cost increases in the production line. The new agreement is valid untilDecember 31 , 2024.The company's expansion continues within existing regions where, in addition to existing framework agreements, we win new customers and projects in more countries. Business development continues in the US market together with a network of sales consultants. We have active quotations out with customers and several projects under evaluation withMaven Wireless products. We continue to take home orders for high-capacity DAS for tunnels inTurkey . Sales of the company's repeater for coverage on trains also continue inSwitzerland . In the Nordics, we have received breakthrough orders both for solutions in hospitals and in prisons. We also have partners in bothSweden andNorway who use our products to establish coverage at power plants.The company's expansion continues at a high pace, primarily because competing companies show poorer delivery capabilities and are also unable to offer modern products and solutions that are fully digital with support for 5G.Sustainability remains important to property owners, among other things, and is further supported by skyrocketing energy prices. We are proud to be able to offer energy-efficient and sustainable solutions for indoor covering that help reduce emissions on our planet and thus achieve theEuropean Commission 's goal of a 40% reduction in emissions by 2030.It is also interesting to note the new EU directiveNIS-2 fromNovember 10, 2022 , which clarifies management and board responsibilities for cyber security in public environments such as airports, offices, malls, etc. This means that insecure networks such as public WiFi will be displaced by more secure solutions such as our DAS products.Our global expansion continues at a high pace as we continue to digitize society with our climate-smart and secure high-bandwidth products for both 5G and other critical communications.
