HIGHLIGHTS OF THE HALF YEAR
-
The order backlog at 31 December 2022 was at a record high level of DKK 43,9 million (H1 2021/22 DKK 37,7 million), with an order intake in H1 of 2022/23 of DKK 24,9 million (H1 2021/22 DKK 5,9 million). The current order backlog is diverse, ranging across several different missions and customers in both institutional and commercial space. A higher number of parallel projects, with many kicked-off late in H1, provides a positive operational outlook and robustness against external factors moving forward. In order to realise the backlog, Rovsing is in the process of expanding the organization.
-
Despite strong order intake and backlog, the H1 2022/23 revenues and EBITDA have been negatively impacted by program delays, impacting the realised performance. Furthermore, supply chain prices remain volatile. The Rovsing team focuses on moving progress forward to mitigate the existing challenges. Focusing on the new programs acquired during H1, with accelerated performance to mitigate the delays on existing programmes.
-
In the first half year of 2022/23, the revenue amounted to DKK 13,4 million (2021/22: DKK 13,0 million) while the 2022/23 EBITDA amounted to DKK 0,5 million (2021/22: DKK 0,6 million).
-
Our team has supported a wide range of customers during H1 2022/23, 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 by new contracts from a diverse range of customers such as Airbus DS, Thales Alenia Space, Astroscale, EUMETSAT and Jena-Optronik in support of missions such as Mars Sample Return, ELSA-M, FLEX, CRISTAL, LSTM and ARIEL.
-
Lead times have been improved on supply chain. However, procurement prices remain dynamic. The global supply chain situation is expected to remain volatile in 2023 with the ongoing war in Ukraine. In this context, Rovsing has launched various mitigation measures to mitigate supply chain and related customer risks.
-
The H1 2022/23 performance has been impacted by customer delays. Several new projects have been kicked-off late in H1. In this context, the outlook for 2022/23 is adjusted from DKK 31 to 33 million and a positive EBITDA in the range of DKK 2,5 to 3,5 million to a revenue in the range of DKK 28 to 30 million, and an EBITDA in the range of DKK 1,0 to 2,0 million.

Revenue for the first half year 2022/23 amounted to DKK 13,4 million compared to DKK 13,0 million in the same period last year.
Gross profit for the period amounted to DKK 9,7 million compared to DKK 10,0 million in the first half of 2021/22.
The Company's earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) for the period amounted to DKK 0,5 million compared to DKK 0,6 million in the same period of the financial year 2021/22.
The net profit for the first half year amounted to DKK -1,1 million compared to DKK -0,8 million in the same period last year.
Equity as per 31 December 2022 amounted to DKK 7,1 million (31 December 2021: DKK 8,8 million).

Net cash flow from investing activities amounted to DKK -0,7 million (2021/22: DKK -1,4 million). Cash flow from financing activities amounted to DKK -7,2 million (2021/22: DKK 0,3 million) while net cash flow for the period amounted to DKK 1,3 million (2021/22: DKK 0 million).
In November 2022 the board of directors made the decision to increase Rovsing's share capital with a nominal value of DKK 149,350 corresponding to 2,987 new shares and to issue 23,660 warrants. The new shares were subscribed by members of the board of directors, management and employees of Rovsing, and the warrants were issued to the board of directors, management and employees of Rovsing as an incentive program.
The H1 2022/23 realised revenue and EBITDA are below Management's expectations at the beginning of the running financial year. Various projects have been facing program delays which have impacted the overall performance of Roving for this year. Given these challenges the Rovsing team has focused on advancing at all possible fronts and shifting efforts to accelerating newer projects as they have been acquired during H1.
The order intake in the first 6 months of the financial year 2022/23 has been significantly higher compared to the order intake in H1 2021/22. Rovsing has been successful in acquiring new contracts from a diverse range of customers such as
Airbus DS, Thales Alenia Space, Astroscale, EUMETSAT and Jena-Optronik. In support of Mars Sample Return, ELSA-M, FLEX, CRISTAL, LSTM and ARIEL missions.

Order backlog remains at a high-level DKK 43,9 million, a success reflecting the efforts invested in sales and project proposals as well to a continuous increase of industry activity. The figure below shows the order backlog exclusive of ongoing service contracts.

The evolution of the order backlog is in line with expectation as 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 key level 1 suppliers of the major European Prime contractors in their efforts to capture upcoming mission within space exploration, earth observation, communication and other critical infrastructure as showcased by our H1 awarded contracts across the spectrum. The order backlog has been strengthened like the expanding expertise and industrial scope that Rovsing can deliver to its customers.
The Rovsing team concluded a successful commissioning of the first Service Module Simulator at TAS-Italy in September. The Critical Design Reviews (CDR) of the remaining G2G EGSEs was completed in October 2022. With the CDR approved and a number of CCNs in process the Rovsing team could accelerate the manufacturing,
assembly, integration and test (MAIT) work with further deliveries planned for H2.
Rovsing received an additional contract from TAS-UK on the FLEX programme for a Launch Umbilical SCOE, a follow on to the already delivered FLEX EPS SCOE. The Kick-off was performed in October, followed by the Design Review in December.
The Mars Sample Return (MSR) Earth Return Orbiter (ERO) Electrical Satellite Interface Simulator (E-SIS) for Airbus DS which had been on hold due to mission changes was resumed in October 2022 with deliveries planned in 2023.
Jena-Optronik awarded Rovsing with a contract for performing Independent SW Validation & Verification (ISVV) for their MSR-ERO Startracker, an activity kicked-off in October and expected to be finalized in 2023. This is the Company's 2nd ISVV contract related to the MSR-ERO programme as Rovsing is also performing the OBC-GNC ISVV with our partner.
In August 2022 the second Umbilical SCOE for the PLATiNO programme was delivered and commissioned for customer SITAEL S.p.A in Italy.
Further in August, Rovsing received a contract from EUMETSAT and commenced work on the Evaluation of their IVV processes and methods for supporting their future ways of working.
Airbus DS selected Rovsing to deliver the Power SCOEs as well as the Power Front-Ends for the Copernicus CRISTAL and LSTM missions. Activities were kicked-off in September and November respectively.
In November Airbus DS awarded Rovsing with the contract to deliver the ARIEL mission Satellite Interface Simulators (SIS). Following the successful kick-off the project is currently in the design phase.
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 three ESMs. In this connection Rovsing is continuing to provide engineering support both remote & onsite as well as spare parts and possible upgrades.
Rovsing's onsite service business in Kourou remain in place with contracts extended until the end of 2023. A tendering phase will begin in 2023 with a possibility to enter into a new 5 year contract from 2024-2028, which Rosving will actively pursue.
The North American market
No customer or trade show visits to North America were conducted during H1. However, in January/February Rovsing was represented by our CEO, Hjalti Pall Thorvardarson in the largest Space Delegation from Denmark, visiting the Houston, Texas area and engaging in dialog with academia, NASA as well as established US Space actors such as Boeing, Jacobs and Barrios as well as upcoming companies such as SpaceX, Intuitive Machines and Axium. Rovsing will continue to explore further opportunities with North American customers.
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 mission 1 which flew successfully to the moon and back during the fall 2022. Further Artemis missions are planned in the coming years with the aim of bringing humans back to the Moon. With a long-term commitment of NASA and ESA for additional ESM / Service Modules, Rovsing participates with related service agreements 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 2022/23. This can be attributed to the overall world situation where emerging markets and one-off programmes are more sensitive than programmes of more established space nations.
Product development and production
Improvements in the value chain, continuous improvements of quality and efficiency are a constant success factor to improve the Company's competitive advantage. During H1, Rovsing has ramped up its efforts on improving its product base as well as related logistics, production and testing environments. As attested by the newly obtained
8
ISO9001 certification. Benefits in workflow can be seen related to the Company's improved headquarters, also allowing for further scaling of our operations and development.
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. In H1, efforts related to product development and feature improvements in the domains of both software and hardware have increased as these are key enablers for Rovsing abilities to deliver diverse market leading system solutions to customers.
Organisation and management
By the end of December 2022, Rovsing employed a total of 25 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 2022 Michael Hove and Ulrich Beck were reelected to the Board of Directors while Jakob Færch Bendtsen was elected to replace Jakob Have.
World events
The war in Ukraine has continued to be a major disruption event affecting the global prices and financial stability. 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 take appropriate actions to minimize any potential business impacts moving forward.
Outlook for 2022/23
The H1 2022/23 performance has been negatively impacted by customer delays and global volatility related to the war in Ukraine. Several new projects have been kicked-off late in H1. In this context, the outlook for 2022/23 is adjusted to a revenue in the range of DKK 28 to 30 million, and an EBITDA in the range of DKK 1,0 to 2,0 million.
EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
After the balance sheet date, no events have occurred that materially affect the Company's financial position.
