Zaptec ASA: First quarter 2023 financial results
Zaptec delivered record-breaking order intake, over 100% revenue growth, an all-time high order backlog, and significantly higher production volumes in the first quarter of 2023. In addition, the company achieved several key milestones in the quarter, including MID-type approval for Zaptec Pro, and a European patent for its charging technology. As in the previous quarter, Zaptec continued investing in future growth based on the large order intake in Q1, including product developments targeting new markets.
– Q1 has been a busy quarter for us, and I am thrilled to report strong performance demonstrating that this quarter was another step in the right direction in our growth trajectory, says Zaptec’s CEO, Peter Bardenfleth-Hansen.
– I am also proud of the milestones we reached related to our striving to provide customers with safe, high-quality charging solutions. The Zaptec Pro MID-type approval is a massive achievement, and I am confident this will be a game-changer for our customers and help us continue growing and succeeding in Europe. We also received a European patent for our dynamic phase-balancing charging technology, demonstrating our uniqueness. The patented technology allows for lower installation cost and optimized power distribution among vehicles charging in the same system, leading to an improved charging experience with increased charging speed, says Bardenfleth-Hansen.
