Update: Q1 shows good order wins

Kongsberg Automotive’s (KA) Q1 results demonstrated that the group continues to make progress in new order wins, with annualised contract wins of €53m in Q1 equating to a 12-month rolling run rate of €293m, which supports management’s target of 3-5% organic growth within three years. Revenues were c 6% ahead of Q114 due to currency effects and the R&D costs were in line with expectations. We therefore maintain our forecasts and anticipate progressively improving margins over the course of the year to achieve the 6% level required to hit the 13% ROCE target.
