Consolidated sales for the third quarter of 2023 confirmed the strong momentum across all of the Group's businesses.

The aerospace segment, the Group's largest market, increased by 41.4% compared to the third quarter of 2022. Sales in the medical segment increased by 25.8% during the same period.

Similar to the previous quarter, deliveries related to the optical communications business continued to be constrained due to the ongoing modernization of certain industrial equipment by the Group's subcontractor. The optical communications division maintains a particularly high order backlog as of September 30, 2023.

* Net of research & development grants. (Any apparent discrepancies in totals are due to rounding.)

The gross margin rate, representing 42.8% of consolidated revenue compared to 40.8% in the third quarter of 2022, increased by 2.0 percentage points and continued to benefit from the growth in sales volumes and the favourable evolution of the product mix during the quarter. The gross margin thus amounted to EUR 1,288 thousand compared to EUR 848 thousand for the third quarter of 2022.

Operating expenses, net of research and development grants, amounted to EUR 787 thousand compared to an amount of EUR 832 thousand for the third quarter of 2022.

For the third quarter of 2023, the Group posted an operating profit from continuing operations of EUR 500 thousand compared to an operating profit of EUR 16 thousand for the third quarter of 2022. The financial income for the third quarter of 2023 was mainly affected by an unfavourable exchange rate effect during this quarter. The tax expense recognized over the third quarters of 2022 and 2023 corresponded to the change in deferred tax assets. This tax expense is a non-cash item.

Net profit after tax from continuing operations thus amounted to EUR 304 thousand in the third quarter of 2023 compared to a net profit of EUR 8 thousand in the third quarter of 2022.

The Group therefore reported a net profit of EUR 304 thousand in the third quarter of 2023 (10.1% of consolidated revenue) compared to a net loss of EUR 60 thousand in the third quarter of 2022 including discontinued operations.

MEMSCAP reported an adjusted EBITDA1 of EUR 616 thousand for the third quarter of 2023 and EUR 2,293 thousand for the first 9 months of 2023, representing 22.7% of consolidated revenue. It is noted that research and development costs were fully recognized as expenses during this 9-month period and were not capitalized in the Group's balance sheet.

Over the third quarter of 2023, the Group reported increased available liquidities (cash and related investments), totalling EUR 5,355 thousand as of September 30, 2023. At that date, the total amount of financial borrowings, excluding lease obligations, was limited to EUR 153 thousand.

The increase in available cash reflected the Group's ability to generate a strong operational cash flow in a context of hyper-growth and associated working capital requirements.

1 Adjusted EBITDA means operating profit before depreciation, amortisation, and share-based payment charge (IFRS 2) and including foreign exchange gains/losses related to ordinary activities.

Perspectives

MEMSCAP’s operational and financial achievements for the first 9 months of 2023 confirm the trajectory to 2026 outlined in the 4G plan focused on achieving an average annual hyper-growth rate of 20% coupled with high levels of profitability.
