YOC : with revenue growth of around 20% in the first half of FY2021 – VIS.X® trading platform as driver of company’s development

Berlin, May 11, 2021 - Despite the ongoing adverse circumstances in the context of the Corona pandemic, YOC Group will increase its revenues at Group level by around 20% in the first half of financial year 2021 compared to the same period of the previous year.

After a still modest first quarter of 2021 with sales revenues of EUR 3.5 million

In total, the company expects revenues for the first half of 2021 to amount to around EUR 7.5 million (H1/2020: EUR 6.2 million).

Consequently, operating earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA)* in the first half of financial year2021 are expected to be EUR 0.7 million to EUR 0.8 million
(H1/2020: EUR 0.5 million).

Sebastian Bauermann, Director Finance of YOC AG: 'The growth trend of our company, driven by our technology platform VIS.X, will continue in the second half of 2021. As a result, we expect revenues at Group level of EUR 17.0 million to EUR 18.0 million (2020: EUR 15.5 million) and an operating result (EBITDA)* of EUR 1.8 million to EUR 2.3 million (2020: EUR 1.8 million) for the full year 2021.
