ECA : Revenue for the 1st quarter of 2015: A satisfactory 1st quarter, boosted by strong business activity from the Robotics and Integrated Systems division
information fournie par Actusnews27/04/2015 à 07:00

In € millions Q1 2015 Q1 2014 Change (%)
Robotics and Integrated Systems 10.9 8.9 +21.3%
Aeronautics 4.7 6.5 -27.9%
Simulation 2.2 1.9 +11.6%
Revenue between the divisions and structure (0.1) (0.1) -
Total 17.7 17.3 +2.3%

The ECA Group's consolidated revenue amounted to €17.7 million in the 1 st quarter of 2015, compared with €17.3 million (+2.3%) in 2014.

This satisfactory first quarter was boosted in particular by the many successes of the Robotics and Integrated Systems division ( see press releases of January 5 and March 5, 2015 ) , which posted revenue of €10.9 million, compared with €8.9 million for the previous year, up by more than 21%. The division's order backlog remained steady at €63 million (€66 million at January 1, 2015).

Revenue for the Aerospace division was down in the 1 st quarter, at €4.7 million (‑27.9%). This decrease should be offset by the very strong business activity expected in this division over the rest of 2015 ( see press release of April 22, 2015 ) .

Lastly, the Simulation division recorded strong growth of 11.6% over the quarter, posting revenue of €2.2 million, and enjoys a positive outlook for the rest of the year. The order backlog amounted to more than €17 million, which is relatively high for this business.

Outlook

The consolidated order backlog amounted to €104 million at March 31, 2015, representing growth of nearly 24% compared with the previous year (€84 million at March 31, 2014).

Over the first half of the year, the Group is expecting growth in line with the satisfactory results of the 1 st quarter. The encouraging outlook, in particular for the Robotics and Integrated Systems division, should strongly support this expected growth. Two significant contracts have already been announced ( see press releases of April 10 and 17, 2015 ) .

Over the full year, business should be stronger in the second half of the year (as usual), impacted by a major seasonal effect (58% of revenue for 2014 was posted in H2 2014).
