The second quarter 2024 was a mixed quarter characterized by a lower than anticipated activity due to delayed start-up of operations in Flight Services as well as delays in deliveries under major contracts. On the other hand we had good operational performance, improved underlying cost performance and a milestone achievement by obtaining airworthiness certification of AirRobot's AR-100H "drone for defenders". In addition we have high activity related to the ongoing financial restructuring and turnaround activities in the making. Finally we have had changes to the Board. Importantly, we will be launching a revised strategic direction and a new profile.

• Q2 2024 revenue of EUR 4.2 million (EUR 6.6 million) with YTD 2024 revenue of EUR 7.2 million (8.8 million). The reduction is mainly due to an insurance claim recorded in Q2 2023 and the sale of Ecoxy in late 2023

• Q2 2024 saw lower than anticipated activity due to delayed start up as well as project delays
