Kontron: Technology group Kontron AG was able to increase revenues by 10.0% to Euro 660.7 mn in the first half of 2022, organic growth was as high as 10.4% after the partial withdrawal from Russia. EBITDA increased to 62.6 mn (PY: Euro 58.3 mn), already close to the current target for the EBITDA margin of 10%. Net profit increased by 23.0% up to Euro 12.8 mn in the second quarter (PY: Euro 10.4 n). Hannes Niederhauser, CEO Kontron AG: “Our order situation remains very good and the growth prospects in the IoT sector are excellent. This makes me optimistic that we will achieve our set goals. Without accounting for the planned sale of the IT services division, we still expect 12% organic growth to Euro 1,500 mn revenue in 2022, despite ongoing problems in the supply chains. Following the sale of the IT services division, we plan to replace the lost revenue with IoT revenues and expect revenues to increase to Euro 2,000 mn by 2025 with a significantly higher EBITDA margin target of 13%."
