加拿大等离子体系统和材料开发人员Tekna(Tekna Holding AS) has forecast that its sales will boom during the coming financial year after its powder orders rose by 25% in Q4 2021.
在2021年的最后一个季度中，Tekna的材料产生了460万美元的收入，比他们在2020年第四季度设法获得的25％，仅在12月就收到了价值330万美元的订单。尽管这还不足以防止该公司的收入同比下降17％至600万美元，但现在预计其“销售加速将持续到2022年”，将其恢复了增长轨迹。
Tekna首席执行官Luc Dionne解释说：“ Tekna在第四季度报告了材料的稳固订单摄入量，在航空航天行业的强烈需求中，将我们的订单积压记录到记录中。”
他补充说：“增材制造业的市场前景约占Tekna总收入的60％，这仍然是积极的。”他补充说，中国消费电子产品的需求显示出有希望的发展和销售的医疗植入物，爬上了前浮游水平。”
Tekna的第四季度2021财务业绩
Effectively, Tekna reports its financials across two main segments: Materials and Systems, with the former significantly outperforming the latter during Q4 2021. Citing “Covid-related execution delays,” the company says that its Systems revenue fell 62% between Q4 2020 and 2021, but it doesn’t believe this conversion slump will continue, given that it has $5.1 million worth of related orders in its backlog.
Yet despite this, and the fact that its customers postponed another $0.8 million of powder orders to Q1 2022, demand for its materials still soared over the course of Q4 2021, with its order intake hitting $6.6 million. This increase, which took the firm’s annual figure to $19.8 million, was largely driven by demand for its 3D printing materials from its aerospace clients, which accounted for 50% of its total sales.
During Q4 2021, Tekna also saw the adoption of its materials within the consumer sector continue to rise dramatically, growing by 200% between H1 and H2 2021 alone. According to the company, this demand was driven by an industry “seeking to reduce process costs and improve mechanical performance,” and it received a five-ton order in the last quarter.
Elsewhere, in medical, Tekna says that appetite for its materials is recovering, hence its sales there have risen 114% over the last two years, and it expects this rate of growth to accelerate moving forwards, with its Ti64 offering set to replace Cobalt Chromium which it says is “considered hazardous by European and U.S. authorities.”
展望未来，鉴于其物质订单积压在第4季度2021年达到1,020万美元，其许多OEM客户承诺进行长期交易，该公司预计将看到“ 2022年和未来几年的大量订单”通过其“在所有地理领土上成长的销售部队”的转变。

创建航空航天销售管道
Unsurprisingly, given that half of Tekna’s custom comes from the aerospace sector, the firm focused a lot of its activities in this area during Q4, making breakthroughs along the way that no doubt contributed to its powder sales success.
在本季度，该公司表示，它被添加到合格的欧洲发动机制造商的合格供应商名单中，这是一项由现有的五年供应协议的交易，同时，其工作旨在使其资格限定其材料的资格Airbus申请仍然是“目标”，定于稍后在2022财年进行的粉末输送。
与此同时，在韩国，法国和美国汽车行业中，该公司补充说，它“取得了稳定的进步”，以在第4季度2021年第4季度揭示其材料的应用，其在该行业中的需求也对第4季度2020恢复了82％。
为了进一步提高其未来的粉末销售履行能力，Tekna还宣布在法国的一个新工厂合并其欧洲生产。该综合大楼的开业旨在增强其端到端的供应链弹性，减少其全球碳足迹并提高其整体利润率，旨在增强其端到端供应链的弹性，旨在增强其端到端的供应链弹性，并提高其整体利润率。
Dionne补充说：“该设施将是供应链的核心，该供应链是100％以欧洲为基础的，从原料采购到高级粉末的制造，再到使用点。”“ Tekna通过有效利用资源并消除废物的野心正在实现绿色经济。”
“我们正在加强公司的供应链弹性，减少了碳足迹，并使该行业能够在循环经济中运作。”
计划在比赛中提升名单？
Tekna并没有为下一个季度或2022财政年度提供前景的前景，而是通过为其销售业绩发出一套“中间任期野心”来结束其结果的介绍。这些目标包括每年达到40-50％的有机收入增长，以及到2025年的运营EBITDA利润率为25％，并在2030年达到250分。
Tekna believes these targets are feasible given the “megatrends accelerating demand” for its materials, and the potential of its plasma technology to drive “disruptive manufacturing change.” In fact, the firm is so confident of its future success, that it’s now publicly considering uplisting from the Euronext Growth to the main Oslo Stock Exchange, in order to take advantage of investor interest there.
Dionne总结道：“我们进入2022年，创纪录的总订单积压为1,530万美元，并且在加拿大和欧洲的生产能力稳步扩大。”“鉴于该公司的扎实前景，我们计划在2022年的过程中将其列入奥斯陆证券交易所主列表。”
