FY’22 guidance stands at sales of SEK 264-292 (cons. 278m)
With the stronger than expected Q1’22, GomSpace is in a solid position for reaching FY’22 guidance, which despite the strong beat in Q1, is being reiterated. FY’22 guidance stands at revenues of SEK 264-292m (cons. SEK 278m) and an EBIT margin of “better than -15%” (cons. -13%).
New orders up 74% y-o-y and driven by higher margin orders
In Q1, GomSpace won new orders worth SEK 41m, up 74% y-o-y. The majority of the new orders registered in Q1, were higher-margin orders (platforms, payloads and subsystems), which help improve the expected profitability of the total order backlog, which stands at SEK 502m.
