CONSOLIDATED 2021 HALF YEAR RESULTS

Revenue for the first half of fiscal year 2021 totalled more than €3.8M, a significant increase compared with the same period of last fiscal year (from April 1 to September 30, 2019), driven by the growth of the manufacturing activities, which generated revenues of €3.1M, an increase of +50% compared to the same period of last year.
At the same time, engineering activities decreased by 24% and represented revenues of €0.7M.

Consolidated operating income for the first half of fiscal year 2021 as of September 30, 2020 amounted to
 €-3.2M. This improvement is mainly due to the increase in revenues.

After recognition of a financial gain of €1.1M related to a positive foreign exchange impact on the loans granted by Tronics' parent company, TDK Electronics AG (a large part of this debt being accounted for in US dollars), the Group share of consolidated net income amounted to €-2.0M.

 

BALANCE-SHEET STRUCTURE

As of September 30, 2020, Tronics' equity amounted to €-21.7M, including the losses generated by the Group at both production sites during the half-year period.

Cash amounted to €4.5M and gross debt to €44M, mainly related to the debt towards TDK Electronics AG. In the first half of fiscal year 2021, Tronics benefited from additional loans granted by TDK Electronics AG for a total of €6.1M.

 

OUTLOOK

For the second half of its fiscal year 2021, Tronics is targeting an increase of its manufacturing activities compared to the previous fiscal year.

During the fiscal year 2021, Tronics expects to improve its current operating income compared to the previous fiscal year 2020. This improvement will come from the increased revenues.

The net income of the fiscal year 2021 will be strongly dependent on the evolution of the euro/dollar exchange rate related to the loans granted by TDK Electronics AG and recognized in financial results
