SERSTECH AB
Third Quarter Report 1 January - 30 September 2020 - Seite 2
The Corona pandemic has had an effect on our R&D output and the volume availability of our new Arx products has been delayed until Q1 2021 and we currently have an order backlog of approximately 2 MSEK for these. We have been able to do limited demos since the first batch became available earlier this year and the feedback has been very encouraging. The Serstech 100 Indicator has been greatly improved over the last two years and we expect it to remain attractive for several years to come due to the improved performance, larger libraries and expanded feature set. The Serstech 100 Indicator will remain our best-selling product also next year, due to its attractive price/performance ratio and the fact that it has been introduced in multiple tender processes. Going into Q4 and 2021 we have a great product portfolio that is, relative to the competition, the strongest we have ever had.
In early 2020, our sales pipeline of known tenders was at the highest level it had ever been, but this changed rapidly in March and April, when a large number of tenders were cancelled. At the beginning of Q4, our sales pipeline has set a new record and several of the previously cancelled tenders have been reactivated, even though we still see many countries being locked down and not open for business.
In March, when the effects of the pandemic became clear, we quickly and dramatically reduced our fixed cost, from more than 3.5 MSEK to less than 2 MSEK per month. This in combination with a returning market and a positive cashflow, has put us in a good financial position. Significant uncertainty about shorter term sales remains of course, but we are convinced that the improving market conditions in combination with our updated portfolio and strong sales channel should place the 50% growth target for 2021 within reach.
