  • ✓ expand Corporate market presence to support creation of recurring stream of regular revenues throughout the year, accelerating the process of seasonality mitigation

Expected Revenues 2024

PIPELINE CONVERSION RATE TOTAL
TOTAL ~122 €M ~16% ~20-23 €M
BACKLOG RECURRING TOTAL
TOTAL ~33 €M ~31-34 €M ~64-67 €M

1H 2024 Highlights

The results of the first half of 2024 confirm the solidity of the CY4Gate group in governmental sales; seasonality of turnover - historically concentrated in the second half of the year - is still relevant partially offset by XTN and RCS sales;

The Value of Production compared to 30 June 2023 slightly suffered the lack of revenues related to foreign orders in the Forensic Intelligence sector, affected by the uncertainty of the international geopolitical scenario. Sales growth in Italy in the defence and justice sector partially filled the revenues gap.

The acquisition of XTN early this January, in the frame of the Group's M&A operations strategy, confirms the objective of CY4Gate management to ensure the implementation of the path undertaken to create a European cyber intelligence and cyber security champion
