Comments from the CEO

Focus on Performance

As we approach the end of the year, we have now closed a successful third quarter for the AAC Clyde Space group. The quarter delivered a healthy net profit of SEK 7.6 M (EBITDA SEK 17.5 M) and a strong positive operational cashflow of SEK 9.3 M, showing how a focus on financial performance is delivering a stronger, more successful business.

Our net sales for the quarter were 51% higher when compared with the same quarter last year, partially offsetting the issues we saw in the second quarter and placing us back on the path of growth. Our order backlog remains strong at SEK 641 M and it will allow us to continue to grow into the next quarter. Many of the supply chain issues that we experienced in the past quarter have been resolved, and we continue to work towards meeting a SEK 350 M to SEK 400 M revenue and EBITDA of 5% to 10%, however, our dependence on some key suppliers remains and we need their timely delivery to meet those targets.

The quarter was a busy period for the company, with the highlights being launch of another of our maritime services satellites (Sedna-1) and the launch of the OHB built Arctic Weather Satellite (AWS) that uses a microwave sounder instrument developed by our team in Gothenburg, and a Starbuck power system and Sirius computer from our team in Uppsala.

Sedna-1 will join the other maritime satellites in our own constellation, allowing us to deliver an increased range of services to our maritime customers. AWS is the first satellite in an expected new constellation of weather monitoring satellites, that will help meteorologists predict weather more accurately and timelier. The data of this first satellite is currently being evaluated by meteorologists around Europe.

The earth observation business continued to grow and strengthen, with the acquisition of Spacemetric showing the ambition and drive to expand our product offering beyond just selling data. An example of this is the contract we signed with Scottish Forestry for the supply of a forest monitoring service, looking for diseased trees using our Cyclops satellites. And as I write this text, I can see in our cleanroom the structural qualification model for the Cyclops satellite that just returned back from successful testing - this marks a major step in the deployment of our first xSPANCION satellites.

Our hardware business continued to perform well, with several project milestones achieved, one satellite shipped out and various products delivered. We sold a license to one of our customers, allowing them to produce in house power systems and on board data handling systems for their satellites, a model of business that we see as a potential additional revenue stream for the future.

Looking forward to the fourth quarter, we have two launches planned for November, one of a customer satellite, and one for our maritime services constellation, adding extra capacity to our ship tracking data and services. Additionally, most of our major projects have critical milestones to achieve before the end of the year, making for a busy quarter for our teams across the world.

As we prepare our plans for 2025, we are strongly focused on improving profitability and positive operational cashflow, two key objectives for the management team. These objectives will guide the year ahead, driving us through our journey to build a more efficient business, focused on delivering the products, missions and data & services that the market is looking for, while reducing our overheads and growing our margins.
