WOOD Flash – AROBS Transilvania Software: revenues recovery to be backloaded into 2H24E

1Q24 was another quarter of stagnation in the IT sector and, therefore, soft earnings from AROBS – revenues fell by 5% yoy and the adjusted net profit by 30% yoy. Management highlighted several factors, including: 1) delays in signing new contracts linked to automotive electrification; 2) disappointing results from AROBS Polska (aerospace), which is now being reorganised; 3) integration systems revenues that will be backloaded into 2H24E; and 4) targeted new investments in sales and marketing. On the positive side, a new, significant project in software services started in March, so will be fully reflected in the 2Q24E revenues, and around two-thirds of the budgeted software services revenues for the remainder of this year is covered by ongoing contracts.
