Commenting on the Q1 2021 report, Jens Haviken, CEO of Techstep says:

"During the first quarter, we continued to pursue our growth strategy and

progress our transformation into a leading Managed Mobility Services (MMS)

provider in the Nordics. Our ambitions are rooted in true mobility expertise and

capabilities. With ~300 employees and mobility experts based in Norway, Sweden

and Denmark, serving more than 550 enterprise customers and 200,000 managed

devices across industries in the private and public sector, we have a unique

platform for growth.

With market conditions still impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic effects, we did

see slower sales cycles, customer onboarding and implementation timelines in the

first quarter, and we continue to see this in the second quarter. We signed

eight new MMS contracts with a total estimated value of NOK 15 million and

~3,300 managed devices in the first quarter. Our ambition for the full year is

30 MMS contracts, and we have a sharp focus on addressing existing customers MMS

needs and onboarding new customers. Looking ahead, we see indications of

increasing activity as Covid-19 measures seem to be eased and we are happy to

see that our core enterprise customers increasingly adopt our MMS solutions",

says Jens Haviken, Techstep CEO.
