Regulatory News:
Forsee Power (FR0014005SB3 – FORSE), the expert in smart
battery systems for light and heavy electric vehicles, today
announces its quarterly sales for the year ended June 30,
20241.
Christophe Gurtner, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of
Forsee Power states: "Forsee Power has maintained a healthy
growth trajectory, with sales up +7% in the first half of 2024, in
a context where the electromobility market is experiencing a
slowdown worldwide, but whose medium and long-term trend is
confirmed. In addition, falling cell costs should boost the launch
of major programs from 2025 onwards. At the same time, the first
six months of the year were marked by continued business
development, with the signing of new international references and
the diversification of our customer portfolio in all our promising
target markets, such as North America and rail.”
