In the wake of the first quarter of 2022, consolidated sales for the second quarter of 2022 confirmed the strong recovery of the avionics business, up +0.4 million euros (+26%) compared to the second quarter of 2021.

The Group's gross margin rate stood at 38% of consolidated sales compared to 39% for the second quarter of 2021 and 37% for the first quarter of 2022.

The amount of operating expenses at 0.9 million euros for the second quarter of 2022 is up compared to previous quarters. This evolution resulted from an increased R&D activity.

The Group therefore reported consolidated operating earnings from continuing operations at the breakeven point for the second quarter of 2022 compared to a consolidated operating profit at 0.1 million euros for the second quarter of 2021. It should be noted that the net foreign exchange gain related to continuing operations, recorded in financial income, amounted to 0.2 million euros for this quarter. The Group thus posted a quarterly net profit from continuing operations of 0.1 million euros compared to net earnings from continuing operations at the break-even point for the second quarter of 2021.

EBITDA from continuing operations amounted to +0.4 million euros for the second quarter of 2022. On June 30, 2022, the Group reported available cash at 4.4 million euros (December 31, 2021: 5.3 million euros) including cash investments (Corporate bonds / investment securities) recorded under non-current financial assets for an amount of 1.0 million euros. In addition to this amount, the available unused credit lines amounted to 0.4 million euros on June 30, 2022.

Analysis and perspectives

As previously mentioned, the Norwegian entity, including the avionics and medical businesses of the Group, will become the operational core of the MEMSCAP Group at the end of the restructuring phase of the US operations. These activities over the first two quarters of 2022 posted historically high levels of sales thanks to the renewed momentum of the avionics business.

The ongoing FABLITE program should lead to a significant improvement in the Group's operating profitability.
