SOGECLAIR, designer of innovative, high added-value solutions and products for the aerospace and transport sectors, announces today its turnover for the 1 st quarter 2018, ending on March 31st 2018, in growth of 1.5% - all divisions are growing – and 5.3% at constant exchange rate. The quarter is marked by a decrease of 1 business day (about 1%).
The breakdown per division is as follow:
| Division | Turnover (€ million) Q1-2018 |
Turnover (€ million) Q1-2017 |
Variation as % |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aerospace | 32.0 | 31.7 | +0.8% |
| Vehicle | 0.7 | 0.6 | +2.5% |
| Simulation | 4.2 | 3.9 | +6.5% |
| Total | 36.8 | 36.3 | +1.5% |
| International | 20.7 | 19.4 | +6.3% |
International, growing (+6.3%), observes a decline in Europe (-11.9%) largely offset by the America zone (+38.3%), which represents more than 25% of the total turnover.
The product activity is down very slightly (-1.6%) due to the decline of dollar against euro and a base effect linked to a 2017 hyperactivity of production adjustment (access doors).
SOGECLAIR strengthened its management at the end of the first quarter with the recruitment of a General Manager for A.V. Simulation (vehicle simulation) and an Operations Director for Aviacomp (thermoplastic composites for aeronautic sector).
The commercial successes during the first quarter, the dynamic in North America and in Simulation activity, in Business Aviation and the strengthening of management teams let SOGECLAIR forecast a 2018 exercise in progress.
Designer of innovative, high added-value solutions and products, SOGECLAIR brings its skills in high-quality engineering and production to a broad range of cutting-edge sectors, notably aeronautics, space and transport. Supporting its customers and partners from the design and simulation stages through to the end of the product's lifetime, all along the production chain through to entry into service, the Group counts nearly 1,400 staff working worldwide to offer a high-quality, proximity service to all its customers.
