Regulatory News:

Forsee Power (FR0014005SB3 FORSE), the expert in smart battery systems for light and heavy electric vehicles, today announces its quarterly sales for the year ended June 30, 2024¹

Christophe Gurtner, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Forsee Power states:
"Forsee Power has maintained a healthy growth trajectory, with sales up +7% in the first half of 2024, in a context where the electromobility market is experiencing a slowdown worldwide, but whose medium and long-term trend is confirmed. In addition, falling cell costs should boost the launch of major programs from 2025 onwards. At the same time, the first six months of the year were marked by continued business development, with the signing of new international references and the diversification of our customer portfolio in all our promising target markets, such as North America and rail."
