Turnover over the first 9 months as of September 30^th 2021: -7.4% at €87.9M

At constants exchange rate and perimeter *: -2.0%

SOGECLAIR, designer and manufacturer of innovative high added-value solutions for mobility, announces today its turnover for the 3^rd quarter 2021.
At constants exchange rate and perimeter, the turnover for the 3^rd quarter 2021 increases by 12.7% compared with the 3^rd quarter 2020. Nine-month turnover decreases by 2% at constants exchange rates and perimeter.
*Exchange rate variations over the period represent €1.6M, they were no significant in 2020.
  Changes in the scope of consolidation over the period represent €-3.6M (restructuring in Germany).

    Differences are due to rounding.

Aerospace division (75.8% of turnover) grows by 15.2% in the quarter. All segments are increasing with business aviation which at more than 17.9% over the 3^rd quarter represents 42.3% of the consolidated turnover; commercial aviation confirms its rebound at 10.3% over the quarter for 26.2% of the consolidated turnover; space represents +3.7%.

Simulation division (23.4% of turnover) is stable at -0.1% supported by the rail and defense segments which are growing strongly, while the automotive segment is declining due to the crisis in the sector and the end of research large simulators.

Vehicle division (0.8% of turnover) at -31.2% over the 3^rd quarter remains under pressure from international business cycles and public orders, particularly in the field of mine countermeasures and improvised explosive devices.

Differences are due to rounding.

Over the 3^rd quarter, all areas are growing except for America which declines slightly by 2.3%. Growth was driven by Asia-Pacific at +44.7% and France at +16%. Note a return to growth in Europe at +6.5% for the first time since the beginning of the crisis in 2020.

* Engineering service activities

The rebound is confirmed with, as in the 2^nd quarter, all activities progressing. Development grows by +38.4% over the 3^rd quarter, products by +7.6% and serie by +6.6%.

Perspectives
The good figures for the 3^rd quarter confirm the confidence in the recovery of the activity quarter after quarter for more than a year. The “ONE SOGECLAIR” plan presented last September will be operational on the 01^st of January 2022. It is the catalyst for improving performance in the years to come, with the objective of doubling turnover by 2030.

Next announcement: Q4 2021 turnover on February, 02^nd 2022 after closing of the Stock Market.
