HIGHLIGHTS OF THE HALF YEAR
-
In the first half year of 2021/22, the revenue amounted to DKK 13,0 million (2020/21: DKK 12,4 million) while the 2021/22 EBITDA amounted to DKK 0,6 million (2020/21: DKK 1,0 million).
-
During H1 of 2021/22, the Company has seen delays on vital inputs from customers due to changes at programme level. With delayed and evolving incoming requirements it has been difficult to ensure the expected progress in large projects such as Galileo 2G and Mars Sample Return. The effort of reshuffling resources and responding to the changes in baseline has had a negative impact on H1 revenue and EBITDA. These delays are expected to be recovered in H2.
-
The order backlog at 31 December 2021 was at a high level of DKK 37,7 million (H1 2020/21 DKK 21,1 million), with an order intake in H1 of 2021/22 of DKK 5,9 million (H1 2020/21 DKK 19,3 million). The current order backlog for Rovsing gives a positive operational outlook as well for the coming years. New programmes are coming up in the industry both commercially and as well in the institutional segment, with further tenders and prospects expected to be issued and settled during the financial year.
-
Rovsing has continued to support its Customers in H1 2020/21, as an important key provider on major ongoing missions such as Galileo 2nd Generation, Mars Sample Return, SMILE, PLATO, FLEX and ARTEMIS. With our team delivering test- and simulation systems, individual products, software solutions, ISVV and on-site engineering services. The market position of Rovsing within the segment has been further strengthened based on the delivered performance and value. Showcased with new customers SITAEL for the PLATiNO programme and NASA-JPL in support of Mars Sample Return mission.
-
The global supply chain pressure on the electronic component market continues to draw focus with price and lead-time increases, a situation which is expected to remain volatile in 2022. Until now the impact on ongoing projects has been kept to a minimum by the Rovsing team with utilization of existing stock, the Company secured earlier in 2021, as well as coupled with good cooperation with suppliers. Rovsing continues to seek ways to mitigate the situation with our supply chain and customers in the current volatile environment.
-
Based on the H1 2021/22 performance, with the delayed Customer inputs, it is expected that the Company can recover the lost performance during H2, given no further delays. The outlook for 2021/22 is maintained with a revenue in the range of DKK 34 to 36 million, and an EBITDA in the range of DKK 3,5 to 4,5 million.

MANAGEMENTS' REVIEW
REVENUE AND RESULTS
Revenue for the first half year 2021/22 amounted to DKK 13,0 million compared to DKK 12,4 million in the same period last year.
Gross profit for the period amounted to DKK 9,0 million compared to DKK 9,1 million in the first half of 2020/21.
The Company's earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) for the period amounted to DKK 0,6 million compared to DKK 1,0 million in the same period of the financial year 2020/21.
The net profit for the first half year amounted to DKK -0,8 million compared to DKK -1,6 million in the same period last year.
Equity as per 31 December 2021 amounted to DKK 8,8 million (31 December 2020: DKK 9,8 million).
Cash flow from operating activities for the period amounted to DKK 1,1 million compared to DKK -0,6 million in the first half year 2020/21. Net cash flow from investing activities amounted to DKK -1,4 million (2020/21: DKK -0,2 million) due to investment in Rovsings new facility/headquarters. Cash flow from financing activities amounted to DKK 0,3 million (2020/21: DKK 0,8 million) while net cash flow for the period amounted to DKK 0 million (2020/21: DKK 0 million). Due to COVID-19, the government delayed payment of VAT and a-tax/am-contribution equals DKK 3,0 million. The deferred amount will be paid in later periods and will be funded by the Company's own funds.
The H1 2021/22 realised revenue and EBITDA are trailing slightly Management's expectations. This is primarily due to slower progress has been achieved on a couple of larger projects, due to overall programme delays in freezing the requirement specifications. Despite these challenges the team at Rovsing has been able to deliver on customer milestones and shift efforts to advancing other projects. The COVID-19 pandemic and the derived semiconductor supply-chain issues and raising prices have given further challenges and effort to keep all wheels turning efficiently. The flexibility of the Rovsing team and an active business continuation plan, remain a significant factor in driving mitigations to the pandemic situation and associated challenges.
The order intake in the first 6 months of the financial year 2021/22 has been lower compared to the order intake in H1 2020/21. This is a timing issue
as the Company reached a record high order intake in H2 of 2020/21. Secondly, the lower order intake in H1 2021/21 compared to the same period in the last business year is mainly driven by the fact that not many tenders have been in decision phase during H1 2021/22 while the Company has been busy submitting offers for new tenders:

Order backlog remains at a high level compared to earlier periods. This success reflects the efforts invested in sales and project proposals which have been intensified over the past years in connection with a steady increase in the general activity level of the industry. The figure below shows the order backlog exclusive of ongoing service contracts.

The evolution of the order backlog is in line with expectation as new key tenders have yet to be decided. The Company maintains a strong competitive position in key market segments.
OPERATIONAL REVIEW
The European market
Rovsing continues to be a key player within the European institutional space market, holding a position as one of the preferred collaborators of the major European Prime contractors in their efforts to capture upcoming mission within space exploration, earth observation, communication and other critical infrastructure. With our central roles within the Thales Alenia Space part of Galileo $2^{\text{nd}}$ Generation (G2G) programme (Announcement no. 324), delivering multiple & recurring EGSE(s) to a flagship mission in Europe, the Company has secured a vital cornerstone in our order backlog and
future reference of the expertise and scope that Rovsing can deliver to its customers.
The Rovsing team concluded successfully the first of the Critical Design Reviews (CDR) of the G2G EGSEs in December 2021 together with TAS-Italy. With the next large CDR scheduled for completion in first quarter of 2022. With the first CDR approved the Rovsing team have begun the manufacturing, assembly, integration and test (MAIT) work.
Rovsing finished in November 2021 the Test Readiness Review (TRR) for customer TAS-UK in connection with the Electrical Power Subsystem (EPS) SCOE for the FLEX programme. The delivery of the FLEX EPS SCOE is expected early 2022. The FLEX EPS SCOE is good continuation of Rovsing Power SCOE business line and shares good synergies with the ongoing PLATO EPS SCOE for TAS-UK for which the first set was delivered back in June 2021 and second set is on track for delivery early 2022.
In November 2021 new orders were awarded to Rovsing by SITAEL S.p.A in Italy for EGSE and products to support their development of PLATiNO spacecrafts. The Kick-Off was concluded in December and deliveries are planned in H2. With the addition of SITAEL to the Company's customer base, showcases a further strengthening of our efforts in the commercial small-sat segment.
Rovsing is responsible for performing the Independent Software Validation (ISVV) for Airbus DS Spain on the Solar wind Magnetosphere Ionosphere Link Explorer (SMILE) Payload Module PLM, a contract signed back in September 2020 and running until spring 2022. SMILE is a joint venture mission between the European Space Agency and the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Airbus DS in Toulouse led the winning consortium for the Mars Sample Return (MSR) Earth Return Orbiter (ERO) programme. Rovsing is a core consortium member, responsible for providing the Electrical Satellite Interface Simulator (E-SIS). The Critical Design Review of the E-SIS was concluded successfully with Airbus DS, ESA and NASA in October 2021. Thus, starting MAIT phase of the project.
Together with Critical Software from Portugal, Rovsing submitted the updated ESA handbook for Independent Software Verification and Validation.
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. As part of the NASA Artemis and Lunar Gateway programmes, ESA has committed to providing additional three ESMs. In this connection Rovsing is continuing to provide engineering support both remote & onsite as well as spare parts and possible upgrades. In September 2021 the third recurring MPCV-ESM PCDU EGSE in support of the upcoming ESMs was delivered to Leonardo in Milan.
Rovsing's onsite service business in Kourou remain in place with contracts running until ultimo 2022 with high likelihood of a minimum one year extension.
The North American market
Due to COVID-19, no customer or trade show visits to North America were possible during H1. Rovsing still proceeded to explore further opportunities with North American customers and responding to tenders. Recently, in November 2021 an order from NASA-JPL for our Power Front-End(s) and Latching Current Limiters was received with deliveries in H2.
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 missions planned in the coming years with the aim of bringing humans back to the Moon. With the ESA and NASA commitment for three additional ESMs, Rovsing has been awarded service agreements to support the Artemis mission for the coming years.
The overall North American market for commercial, military, and civil space remains a growth opportunity and strategic focus for the Company.
Emerging space markets
Rovsing continues to closely monitor emerging and ambitious space markets with their increasing space budgets. However, sales activities and inquiries from emerging markets have remained at a low level in H1 2021/22. This can be attributed to the overall world situation where emerging markets and one-off programmes are more sensitive to the COVID-19 pandemic than programmes of more established space nations.
Product development and production
Rovsing has continued focus on improving its product base and related logistics, production and
8
testing environments. Improvements in value chain, heightening of quality and efficiency are a constant focus to improve the Company's competitive advantage. With the new and improved Company headquarters the foundation for future improvements has been laid, allowing for further scaling of our operations and development.
Product development and feature improvements in the domains of both software and hardware remain key enablers for Rovsing abilities to deliver diverse market leading system solutions to customers.
Rovsing's strategic roadmap focuses on achieving increased scalability such that our already modular products can be better address the widening range of satellite architectures.
Organisation and management
By the end of December 2021, Rovsing employed a total of 27 employees, counted on a full-time-equivalent basis. Most employees were employed at the company's head office in Glostrup, Denmark, but the company also has employees in Kourou, French Guiana, where they provide support and consultancy services.
At the Company's annual general meeting in October 2021 Michael Hove, Jakob Have and Ulrich Beck were reelected to the Board of Directors.
COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has continued to be a major disruption event in both personal and professional lives of all. At Rovsing an active business continuity plan to address the COVID-19 situation has been in place to ensure continuous evaluation of the business based on supply chain, internal resources, progress and governmental guidelines.
The COVID-19 derived semiconductor supply-chain issues and raising prices have given further challenges and effort to keep all wheels turning efficiently. The flexibility of the Rovsing team and an active business continuation plan, remain a significant factor in driving mitigations to the pandemic situation and associated challenges.
Management continues to monitor the situation and take appropriate actions to minimize any potential business impacts moving forward.
Outlook for 2021/22
Based on the H1 2021/22 performance, with the delayed Customer inputs, it is expected that the Company can recover the lost performance during H2, given no further delays. The outlook for 2021/22 is maintained with a revenue in the range of DKK 34 to 36 million, and an EBITDA in the range of DKK 3,5 to 4,5 million.
EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
After the balance sheet date, no events have occurred that materially affect the Company's financial position.
