CEO comment

Solid Growth in an Unpredictable Quarter

We achieved strong growth in the first quarter despite a challenging and unpredictable market environment.

Revenue increased by 27%, reflecting solid underlying project activity across regions, despite some deliveries shifting into Q2. Order intake grew by 23% compared to Q1 2024, underscoring continued demand for our solutions despite market uncertainties, including falling oil prices and new US tariffs.

Europe continued to perform well across both corporate and federal sectors, showing healthy growth in order intake and pipeline. The Middle East and APAC regions were slower, following a strong close to 2024, with several planned projects shifting to later quarters. In North America, the corporate sector demonstrated positive momentum in both new orders and pipeline development, while federal projects progressed at a slower pace than usual due to market uncertainty.

We continue to advance our strategic transformation by increasing contributions from our two new business areas: our core technology package and our new software platform, delivered through partners. We signed new partners across all regions and secured the first customer contract for the software platform, a vital milestone. These areas are key to scaling our business, driving recurring revenue growth, and improving profitability. We have seen a growing interest from the defense sector in Europe, a trend that we anticipate will continue.

Our pipeline continues to strengthen across regions, with defense and energy remaining key drivers of growth. Looking ahead, we are confident in our ability to deliver sustained growth and profitability, supported by expanding recurring revenue, strategic R&D investments, and strong financial discipline.

Revenue and gross profit

Cyviz delivered revenue of NOK 135.8 million in Q1, up NOK 29.3 million (27.4%) compared to Q1 2024. Gross profit at the same time increased from NOK 71.6 million (67.2%) to NOK 73.6 million (54.2%).

Gross margins have remained elevated over the past five quarters, driven by project cost composition and timing effects from multi-period projects. Typically, higher-margin components correspond with lower revenue volumes.

Order intake and order backlog

Cyviz' order intake reached NOK 112.4 million in Q1, up from NOK 91.4 million in Q1 2024. On a 12-month basis, order intake is NOK 641 compared to NOK 642 in Q1 2024.

The total order backlog is NOK 337.8 million after Q1, down from NOK 428.3 million in Q1 2024. Last year's backlog was elevated by a single, significant, multi-year deal signed in Q4 2023.

EBITDA

Cyviz delivered an EBITDA of NOK 1.2 million in Q1. This is a decrease of NOK 4.0 million compared to Q1 2024. Q1 is typically a seasonally slow quarter, the year-on-year difference reflects product mix variations.

Operating expenses for the quarter were NOK 139.2 million, up from NOK 108.0 million in Q1 2024. This is mainly driven by an increase in the cost of materials of NOK 27.3 million associated with higher activity.

Cash flow

Net cash flow from operating activities was NOK -17.6 million in Q1, compared to NOK 33.3 million in the same quarter last year. Last year's positive cash flow was driven by strong receivable collection following an unusually high order intake in the preceding quarter, particularly from regions with typically short payment cycles. This year, cash flow was impacted by a pre-tax loss of NOK -10.4 million, mainly caused by a NOK 6.3 million foreign exchange loss (disagio) and receivables mix weighted toward regions with longer collection cycles.

The increase in working capital also reflects higher accounts receivable (including unbilled revenue) and elevated inventory levels, both related to ongoing project activity and procurement for upcoming deliveries. Accounts payable rose correspondingly in line with the procurement. Depreciation decreased from NOK 6.6 million in Q1 2024 to NOK 4.6 million in Q1 2025, mainly due to a higher share of R&D projects still under development and some older assets being fully depreciated.

Net cash flow from investment activities was NOK -8.4 million in Q1, compared to NOK -9.2 million in the same quarter of 2024. This primarily reflects capitalized R&D, including product development for Cyviz' Easy Monitoring & Remote Management platform as well as ongoing upgrades to the company's ERP system.

Net cash flow from financing activities was NOK 24.7 million in Q1, primarily driven by an increased draw on the credit facility. The total draw on the credit facility was NOK 64.9 million at the end of Q1. The company had a separate cash holding of NOK 11.9 million, primarily comprising tax withholdings and funds from subsidiary bank accounts outside the RCF account structure.

Financial position

Cyviz' total equity at the end of Q1 2025 was NOK 107.0 million, corresponding to an equity ratio of 31.3%, down from 41.3% in Q1 2024. The NOK 11.8 million reduction since the yearend reflects the quarterly pre-tax loss, including a NOK 6.3 million foreign exchange loss (disagio). Most of the lower equity ratio is, however, explained by the temporary increase in total assets from high project activity and working capital build-up.

Long-term interest-bearing debt totaled NOK 4.5 million, related to an Innovation Norway loan with a seven-year repayment term; NOK 0.5 million was repaid in Q1 2025.

Long-term provisions of NOK 5.3 million in Q1 primarily relate to mandatory end-of-service gratuities in Saudi Arabia and Dubai.

The covenant structure on the Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) with DNB requires a minimum equity ratio of 30% and an EBITDA over the last 12 months of at least NOK 15 million. As of Q1, Cyviz' equity ratio stood at 31.4%, with an EBITDA (R12) of NOK 32 million.

Outlook

We anticipate a mixed market landscape with both opportunities and external uncertainties. Interest in control rooms and operation centers continues to rise across Europe and NATO, driven by increasing defense budgets. This is a key growth area where Cyviz is well-positioned to gain market share in the years ahead. At the same time, broader market conditions remain unpredictable. The ongoing discussions around global tariffs are prompting companies that manufacture physical products in China to explore production alternatives in other regions, including Europe. Cyviz is actively engaging with key third-party partners to facilitate potential adjustments in the supply chain as we advance. In North America, we anticipate a minor risk of longer project cycles within the federal sector due to tariff-related uncertainty. However, this is expected to be offset by stronger momentum in the corporate space, where our partner ecosystem and enabling Cyviz Core Technology are driving growth. We continue to see Europe as a key growth engine, complemented by positive trends in parts of the APAC market. For North America and the Middle East, we expect 2025 to be more uneven, influenced by tariff impacts and low oil prices.

Our long-term growth strategy remains unchanged, focused on two critical pillars: 1) The Cyviz Core Technology – scaling through a global partner ecosystem, expanding geographical reach, and tapping into new end-customer opportunities, and 2) The Cyviz Management & Monitoring SW Platform – enabling partners to build managed services for any networkconnected infrastructure, driving ARR and subscription-based revenue for both Cyviz and our partners. These business lines are key to our five-year strategy, aiming for 25% ARR and 25% EBITDA. We remain committed to expanding our partner network to strengthen these growth areas and support our long-term ambitions.

With increasing demand for Next-Level Collaboration solutions, Cyviz is well-positioned to deliver profitable growth, improved cash flow, and continued ARR expansion in 2025. Our focus is clear: enhance customer value through continuous innovation in our in-house technology, disrupt the market with our software platform and services, and scale globally with a strong partner ecosystem.
