Revenues for the quarter improved 10 percent to 37.5 million euros from prior year's 34.1 million euros. The double-digit revenue growth, generated against the backdrop of the pandemic, was driven by ongoing consistent implementation of the "2020plus" growth strategy.

For the coming quarters, Jürgen Hermann said, "We expect a strong performance, particularly in the second half of 2021. Our pipeline is well filled and our innovative solutions are meeting with great acceptance in the market."
For 2022, the company has budgeted revenues of 200 million euros, an EBITDA margin of more than 10 percent and a sustainably positive free cash flow.
