Selection of current digitalization initiatives

  • Goodtech Digital Solutions established in 2019 to strengthen focus on internal digital solutions and product developments

  • Delivers technology solutions for production lines, robot cells and industrial IT-solutions, such as Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES)

  • Most prominent internal digitalization projects are Wizx and Neuron (JV with New & Company - Goodtech owns 60%) - both with a large market potential

Wizx

  • IoT solution that uses sensor technology to collect data (e.g. temperature and vibrations on a manufacturing facility)

  • Product not yet launched - currently working with design and hardware development

  • Pilot projects with several Tier 1 industrial companies

Neuron

  • Software solution that analyses and processes industrial data (e.g. data collected from Wizx)

  • Several pilot-projects within oil & gas and shipping sector

  • Partner agreement with Veracity by DNV GL signed in Q3-20

Strong order backlog development albeit Covid-19 pandemic situation

Strong order backlog development from 2019

Key considerations

  • Positive development in backlog - less variation and lower seasonality compared to previous years

  • Decline in Q2-20 due to Covid-19 - work in Moss and Karlstad were affected negatively

  • Decline in Sweden in Q2 and Q3-20 due to Covid-19 as clients were hesitant to take investment decisions. However, signs of recovery with several tenders expected to be concluded in short time

    • - New order of NOK 5m in Karlstad received on 25-Nov

    • - New contract of NOK 3.5m - with further upside potential - received from Orkla to Moss division on 25-Nov

  • Note that backlog projects normally only accounts for ~50% of annual revenues - engineering services, support functions and other income not included in backlog

Positive trend in Q3-20 expected to continue

Revenue (LTM)

EBITDA (LTM)

  • Strong revenue development due to improved market activity and solid project execution

  • Good operating activity albeit Covid-19 pandemic situation

  • Improved operations in Åland following the restructuring process

  • Environmental business in Åland has historically affected margins negatively - ongoing turnaround set to support margins going forward

  • One extraordinary project and product delivery postponements due to Covid-19 are key contributors to margin drop in 2020

  • EBITDA and margins expected to improve from current levels
