HIGHLIGHTS OF THE HALF YEAR

  • The first half year of 2024/25 has been a stabilization phase for Rovsing, maintaining the activity level at the same level as last year, when YoY revenue growth was 39%. In line with the strategy, the Company has explored opportunities for partnerships and expansion. This work has led to Rovsing entering into a new strategic cooperation agreement with Marble Imaging AG in November 2024, as well as plans to establish subsidiaries in two EU countries during H2, which will help ensure further growth in 2025/26.
  • The order backlog at 31 December 2024 remains at a high level of DKK 34.9 million (H1 2023/24 DKK 54.5 million), with an order intake in H1 of 2024/25 of DKK 12.9 million (H1 2023/24 DKK 4.9 million). Order intake gains momentum especially after H1 closure with incoming contracts, increasing order back-log from DKK 34.9 million to DKK 42.3 million as of 31 January 2025. The portfolio of contracts is diverse, ranging across several different missions and customers in both institutional and commercial space.
  • In the first half year of the financial year 2024/25, the revenue amounted to DKK 17.3 million (H1 2023/24: DKK 17.9 million) or a decrease of 3.0% (DKK 0.6 million).
  • EBITDA amounted to DKK 0.3 million (H1 2023/24: DKK 1.2 million) or a decrease of DKK 0.9 million. The H1 2024/25 EBITDA is impacted by one-time effects related to the replanning of two larger projects. Rovsing has projects that have been delayed for extensive periods by their customers, these delays incur an increase in material costs and effort due to inflation in the same period. Rovsing expects to have the impacts settled with the customers. Until settlement is reached proceeds cannot be quantified and are therefore not included in the guidance for the ongoing financial year.
  • Due to the above, the pace during H1 has not matched initial expectations, and consequently the revenue outlook for 2024/25 is adjusted from the range of DKK 40.0 to 42.0 million to be in the range of DKK 37.0 to 40.0 million, with a positive EBITDA adjusted from the range of DKK 3.0 to 4.0 million to the range of DKK 1.0 to 2.0 million.

EXPANSION IS EXPECTED TO ACCELERATE IN 2025/26

  • During the first half of the year, the Company has worked actively on its strategy to increase growth in the coming years. In November 2024, the first step was taken with the signing of a strategic cooperation agreement with Marble Imaging AG from Germany, which aims to develop joint services using Earth observation (EO) data with a focus on environmental and safety applications. This collaboration is expected to generate revenue from 2026.
  • In addition, Rovsing has investigated the benefits and business cases of different establishment configurations in the EU and the USA. Currently, the company is in the process of establishing subsidiaries in two EU countries with the aim of starting operations during 2025 in these countries, tapping into further growth potential.
  • To support the transition to growth, ramp up sales activities, secure adequate working capital to enable increased production flexibility, Rovsing will explore the possibilities of carrying out a directed share issue of up to 20% of the market value.

MANAGEMENTS' REVIEW

REVENUE AND RESULTS

Revenue for the first half year 2024/25 amounted to DKK 17.3 million compared to DKK 17.9 million in the same period last year or a decrease of DKK 0.6 million.

Gross profit for the period amounted to DKK 11.6 million compared to DKK 12.4 million in the first half of 2023/24.

The Company's earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) for the period amounted to DKK 0.3 million compared to DKK 1.2 million in the same period of the financial year 2023/24 or a decrease of DKK 0.9 million.

The net profit for the first half year amounted to DKK -1.4 million compared to DKK -0.5 million in the same period last year.

Equity as per 31 December 2024 amounted to DKK 8.4 million (31 December 2023: DKK 6.2 million).

Cash flow from operating activities for the period amounted to DKK 1.3 million compared to DKK 10.2 million in the first half year 2023/24. Net cash flow from investing activities amounted to DKK -0.6 million (2023/24: DKK -0.9 million). Cash flow from financing activities amounted to DKK -0.7 million (2023/24: DKK -8.5 million) while net cash flow for the period amounted to DKK 0.0 million (2023/24: DKK 0.9 million).

The H1 2024/25 realised revenue and EBITDA are trailing expectations set at the beginning of the running financial year. During H1, the Company made replanning of two larger projects which concluded that the remaining recurring deliveries would require more effort to complete them than originally planned while also cost of materials had increased compared to budget due to inflation. These changes can largely be attributed to earlier delays and the need for redesign introduced by the customer. Rovsing expects to have these additional impacts settled with the customers. Until settlement is reached proceeds cannot be quantified and are therefore not included in the guidance for the ongoing financial year.

To support the projected growth, the Company worked to expand the organization.

The Company seeks ways to improve working capital to allow larger flexibility, support growth & sales activities and enable cost optimization through scale.

The order intake in the first 6 months of the financial year 2024/25 was DKK 12.9 million, Rovsing has been successful in acquiring new contracts from a diverse range of customers such as Airbus DS, Thales Alenia Space, SITAEL and ESA.

Order backlog was DKK 34.9 million at end of H1 2024/25 and expected to rise further in H2 with additional tenders in negotiation phase.

The evolution of the order backlog is in line with expectations as the Company maintains a strong competitive position in core market segments.

OPERATIONAL REVIEW

Strategic focus areas

In line with Rovsing strategy outlined in the Annual Report 2023/24, the Company has sought to expand its operational reach via strategic partnerships as showcased with the November 2024 signing of a strategic collaboration agreement with Marble Imaging AG from Bremen, Germany aimed at developing joint services utilizing Earth Observation (EO) data focused on Environmental and Security Applications. Rovsing has since sought to establish key stakeholder interest and built the first Danish use cases and developments.

As part of the strategic market expansion efforts, the Company has explored benefits and business cases for different establishment configurations within the European Union (EU) and USA. Rovsing is starting the process of establishing subsidiaries in two EU countries with the aim of starting operations within 2025 to further contribute to the Company's growth and market access.

The European market

Rovsing continues to be a key player within the European institutional space market, holding a position as one of the key level 1 suppliers of the major European Prime contractors in their efforts to capture upcoming missions within space exploration, earth observation, communication and other critical infrastructure as showcased by our ongoing contracts across the spectrum of missions.

The Rovsing team continued work on the Galileo Second Generation (G2G) EGSEs for the customer Thales Alenia Space (TAS) Italy. Several deliveries and milestones were completed during H1 2024/25. The project is transitioning to a recurring system delivery phase, however recent replanning shows that due to the already incurred extensive delays the efforts needed to complete the project and with increased cost of materials since the contract start, the impact on projected profitability is negatively impacted. The Company seeks to have these additional costs covered by the customer and expects to have an agreement in place during 2025.

The Mars Sample Return (MSR) Earth Return Orbiter (ERO) Electrical Satellite Interface Simulator (E-SIS) for Airbus DS has seen several stoppage periods due to programme level changes for the MSR mission. The E-SIS systems are completed and are being stored by Rovsing until the needed MSR mission changes are agreed by ESA and NASA.

Rovsing is performing the Independent SW Validation & Verification (ISVV) of the Jena-Optronik LIDAR, for the MSR-ERO mission. In addition, Rovsing has an ISVV contract performing the OBC-GNC ISVV with our partner Critical Software. Both ISVV projects on MSR-ERO are expected to be completed in 2025.

Rovsing involvement as key contributor to the MSR programme for the E-SIS and multiple ISVV tasks showcases the capabilities and reliability of Rovsing on flagship ESA and NASA exploration programmes.

For the PLATiNO programme and customer SITAEL S.p.A in Italy, Rovsing has delivered UMB SCOE systems but remains to deliver a MiniCOTE system, the system is ready, pending harness definitions from the customer. SITAEL has contracted Rovsing with further deliveries of SAS and SLP products the first set of which was delivered during the summer 2024 with remaining sets delivered in autumn 2024 and beginning of 2025. A follow-on contract for additional UMB SCOEs was awarded to Rovsing with deliveries in 2024/25, the first UMB SCOE delivered by mid-February.

The European Commission Copernicus programme provides vital data from satellites which help address challenges such as urbanisation, food security, rising sea levels, diminishing polar ice, natural disasters and, of course, climate change. Rovsing has contributed to many of the current suite of Sentinel satellite missions. Looking to the future, the capabilities of the Copernicus space component is being enhanced by six new satellites (CO2M, LSTM, CHIME, ROSE-L, CIMR and CRISTAL), currently being developed by ESA and built by European industry. Rovsing has already secured multiple contracts and is working on 4 out of 6 satellites with different primes (LSTM, ROSE-L, CIMR and CRISTAL). Tendering phase for the continuation of the Sentinel missions under the Copernicus space component has also begun, with Rovsing already answering several tenders.

Airbus DS selected Rovsing to deliver the Power SCOEs as well as the Power Front-Ends for the Copernicus CRISTAL and LSTM missions. The 2 sets of Power Front-End systems were shipped to Airbus DS in 2023. The 1st set for the Power SCOE project was successfully delivered to Airbus DS in Germany in early September 2024. With the 2nd set delivered to Airbus DS Spain in December 2024.

In June 2023, Rovsing and customer TAS-I conducted the successful Kick-off of the CIMR UMB/COTE SCOE project, however due to progamme changes the project has been on hold but is expected to resume during 2025.

The ROSE-L Power EGSEs were awarded to Rovsing by TAS-I in July 2023. The PDR was concluded successfully in March 2024. The project was on hold awaiting changes from the customer until the autumn of 2024, the CDR is currently being prepared with the first delivery expected before end of 2025.

Rovsing is supporting Airbus DS on the ARIEL mission by providing the Satellite Interface Simulators (SIS). The two reduced sets were delivered in early 2024. The two full sets completed their test campaigns during the summer and the first shipped in the autumn. The final set is ready and awaiting shipping to Airbus DS.

Rovsing has in August 2024 delivered the FORUM Platform Emulator SCOE to OHB. FORUM is an ESA mission which will measure Earth's outgoing radiation in the far-infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum that has never been measured from space before. Rovsing has a 2nd FORUM contract with OHB, for the Thermal EGSE which is scheduled to be delivered during 2024/25 after requirement changes introduced by OHB during 2023/24.

In June 2023, TAS-I awarded Rovsing with a contract for supplying a Power SCOE for a domestic European Military satellite SICRAL-3. The delivery of UMB/COTE SCOE, BatSim/BCE SCOE and SAS SCOE was completed during summer 2024 with the remaining SCOEs and set 2 deliveries conducted during autumn 2024 and until end of Q3 2024/25.

Rovsing has continued support for the Artemis missions with the Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV) European Service Module (ESM). Four Solar Array Wing Front End Equipment (SAW FEE) systems are deployed, two with Airbus DS in Bremen and Ariane Group in Les Mureaux, one with Lockheed Martin in Colorado for the Integrated Test Lab and the fourth with NASA at the Kennedy Space Center. Three MPCV-ESM PCDU EGSE have also been delivered to Leonardo in Milan. As part of the NASA Artemis and Lunar Gateway programmes, ESA has committed to providing additional ESMs. In this connection Rovsing is continuing to provide key engineering support both remote & onsite as well as spare parts and upgrades.

In January 2024, Rovsing was awarded by Airbus DS the contract to deliver the Simulation Front-End for the GRACE-C mission. The manufacturing readiness review was successfully completed in June 2024 with the system expected to be delivered during 2024/25.

The North American market

Rovsing will participate in the Danish pavilion hosted during the upcoming 50th installment of the Space Symposium conference in Colorado, USA during April 2025.

As a supplier of various EGSE to the European Service Module (ESM) for the Orion Crew Capsule, Rovsing remains a vital partner for the Artemis programme with the aim of bringing humans back to the Moon.

Rovsing participates with related service agreements for the coming years and was awarded in H1 2024/25 a follow-on order for the 5th SAW FEE system for delivery to the Kennedy Space Center (KSC). The work on the system is already underway with delivery expected by summer 2025.

The overall North American market for commercial, military, and civil space remains a growth opportunity and strategic focus for the Company while monitoring closely the changing landscape with the new administration in the USA.

Emerging space markets

During H1 2024/45, Rovsing provided proposals and responded to tenders from emerging markets with clarification processes continuing in H2.

Rovsing continues to closely monitor emerging and ambitious space markets with their increasing space budgets, with the target of acquiring new customers in coming years.

Product development, production and strategic initiatives

Improvements in the value chain, continuous improvements in quality and efficiency are a constant success factor to improve the Company's competitive advantage. During H1 2024/25, Rovsing has continued to invest efforts into improving its product base with next generation products and new additions to the portfolio. Improvements to logistics, inventory, production and testing environments have also been applied.

For product development and research activities, the Company tries to leverage co-financing where possible.

Rovsing's strategic roadmap focuses on achieving increased scalability such that our already modular products can better address the expanding range of satellite architectures. During H1 2024/25, efforts related to product development and feature improvements in the domains of both software and hardware have continued as these are key enablers for the Company's abilities to deliver diverse market leading system solutions to customers. In line with the strategic roadmap Rovsing conducted co-financing studies and development projects in cooperation with ESA.

During H1 2024/25 Rovsing has applied for further funding and support under IPTF, GSTP and ARTES programmes for further development activities. The ARTES programme application has been accepted and a new project for next generation development of our Second Level Protection (SLP) product line has been approved and kicked off with ESA in early 2025. Other applications are still under evaluation by ESA.

Rovsing holds an ISO9001 certification, a procedural environment, ensuring quality and knowledge sharing. Benefits in workflow related to the Company's improved headquarters, allow for further scaling of our operations and development.

During H1 2024/25 Rovsing has intensified efforts related to further opportunities, matching the Company's expertise, concerning mainly Defence and Critical Infrastructures on Danish and European level to broaden the scope of business in close cooperation with Prime Contractors and other potential partners.

Organisation and management

By the end of December 2024, Rovsing employed a total of 30 employees, counted on a full-timeequivalent basis. Most employees were employed at the Company's head office in Glostrup, Denmark.

At the Company's annual general meeting in October 2024 Kim Brangstrup, Jean Marcel Dühring, Michael Lumholt, Carsten Jørgensen and Ulrich Beck as Chairman were reelected to the Board of Directors.

Geopolitical Environment

The war in Ukraine and the situation in Israel and Gaza has continued to be a major disruption event affecting the global prices, lead-times and financial stability.

The new administration in the USA with changed focus, views and methods across the board is followed with sharp focus while to date no specific announcements have been made which directly impact the business operations at Rovsing. Changes in geopolitical environment can also give rise to opportunities for Rovsing.

At Rovsing an active business continuity plan to address the volatile situation has been in place since the COVID-19 pandemic in order to ensure continuous evaluation of the business based on supply chain, internal resources, progress and governmental guidelines.

Management continues to monitor the situation and will take appropriate actions to minimize any potential business impacts moving forward.
