• Revenue rises to €75.1 million in the first half of the year, adjusted EBITDA at €26.9 million

Frankfurt am Main, August 15, 2022. Brockhaus Technologies AG (BKHT, ISIN: DE000A2GSU42) has fully confirmed the half-year figures communicated in an ad hoc and press release on August 9, 2022. Revenue, earnings and order backlog increased to a record level in the first six months of financial year 2022. Based on this positive development, management also forecasts strong profitable growth for the full year 2022. Revenue is expected to increase significantly compared to the previous year to between €140 and 150 million. Profitability should again reach a high level with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 35%.

Revenue within the first half-year increased by +234% to €75.1 million. Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (adjusted EBITDA) grew over-proportionally by +954% to €26.9 million. This corresponds to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 35.9% after 11.4% in the previous year period H1 2021. Adjusted EBIT increased by +1,467% as compared to the previous year to €25.1 million.

Free cash flow before taxes improved very significantly to €16.0 million (H1 2021: €1.7 million). All three segments contributed to this positive development. Against this background and thanks to cash and cash equivalents of €32.2 million as well as a very solid equity ratio of 40.4% (reporting date: June 30, 2022), Brockhaus Technologies is very well positioned, both financially and in terms of its balance sheet, for the planned future growth.
