  • These forecasts reflect only contracts with a higher degree of certainty signed in 2020/2021
  • No revenues included from our prospective future pipeline
  • Given strong future contracts pipeline, we see upside potential in figures for the forecasted period
  • Capitalised technology development costs is minimal, mostly expensed
  • Huddlestock is now beyond the largest investment period and most of the various technologies have been completed
  • Thus a large part of future profits will be Free cash flows, making us a self-financing company
