Haugesund, 12 November 2024: Reach Subsea ASA announces its third quarter
results for 2024, demonstrating strong underlying financial performance, well
above the same period last year. Revenue for the quarter stands at NOK 835
million and the EBIT at NOK 134 million. Year to date the company has reached a
revenue milestone just above 2 billion NOK.
"We are driving Reach Subsea's growth with a strong focus on profitability and
high-quality services in which we are continuously expanding. Our Q3 results
demonstrate steady, continued progress," said CEO of Reach Subsea, Jostein
Alendal.
Reach Subsea's commitment to integrating robotic solutions into the subsea
industry is taking shape across its service offerings, with a special emphasis
on remote operations. The Reach Remote USVs 1 and 2 will soon join the
operational fleet, with final testing of Reach Remote 1 nearing completion. It
is set to enter a technology qualification program with Equinor, TotalEnergies,
and other major energy companies following delivery.
Reach Subsea reports strong client interest in participating in these innovative
solutions, with additional momentum from a EUR 14.3 million grant to support the
Reach Remote scale-up.
"Although Reach Remote 1 and 2 are slightly behind schedule, we are confident
that these USVs will soon be firmly established in key markets. This is just the
beginning, as we lay the foundation for a larger scale-up" said CEO of Reach
Subsea Jostein Alendal.
Furthermore, Reach Subsea's order backlog stands strong at NOK 1.5 billion which
is nearly a threefold increase compared to the same quarter of 2023. The tender
volume stands at 8.5 billion.
"We are facing exciting times ahead of us and with this momentum, we believe we
are well-positioned to meet the growing demand in our industry" said CEO of
Reach Subsea, Jostein Alendal.
