Nørresundby, Denmark, 7 May 2024
Announcement no. 25/2024

Q2 MEETS EXPECTATIONS, WITH GROWING ORDERS AND SALES, IN A MARKET, WHERE
CUSTOMER INVENTORIES ARE NORMALIZING AND REORDERING IS BEGINNING TO PICK UP.

“The results for Q2 are in line with our expectations for the quarter, reaching sales of DKK 125 million and trimming inventory by DKK 8 million during the quarter. In Q2, we furthermore see an increase in our order intake, indicating a shift towards more typical market dynamics, characterized by shorter order horizons and priority on inventory reductions.

2023/24 is indeed a challenging year for RTX, and in Q2 we have seen business gradually improving. We expect improvements to continue in the coming quarters, and despite some uncertainty we maintain our outlook for the year, as previously communicated in the 2022/23 annual report.”
