Cambi ASA: Third-quarter results 2023

Cambi announced its third-quarter results today, delivering the sixth consecutive quarter with EBITDA growth to a quarterly record of NOK 70 million. The company has now also reached its order intake estimate of NOK 1.2 billion for the period 2023-2024 within three of the eight quarters.

Key highlights

• Financial performance: Record-high EBITDA (NOK 70 million), order intake (NOK 983 million), and order backlog (NOK 1,791 million). The EBITDA margin of 30% demonstrates business scalability. The results provide good visibility for financial performance in the coming two years.
• Six new equipment contracts: One major, three large and two medium contracts in different world regions, including two new countries, Israel and New Zealand, testify to the broad appeal of Cambi’s robust technology platform.
• Leveraging core strengths: Cambi is committed to maximising the adoption of its thermal hydrolysis process (THP) technology globally and growing its recurring revenue streams. The strategy has been realigned in the quarter for Cambi to remain a neutral technology supplier in public tenders. Sludge treatment plant ownership is no longer a priority.
• New reporting segments: The Technology segment comprises THP and related equipment sales to new customer sites. The Solutions segment comprises offerings to existing THP sites and Cambi’s sustainable soils business, Grønn Vekst.
• Value to shareholders: Following the strategic realignment, an extraordinary dividend payment of NOK 0.60 per share was approved at the end of the quarter and paid in October.

With a solid year-to-date cash conversion ratio of 80% and a book-to-bill ratio of 2.1, we reiterate our guiding of paying a dividend of 60-80% of net profits in the coming two years.”
