Gerard van de Aast, CEO: “Imtech has delivered a quarter in which 3 out of the 4 key operational improvement indicators showed satisfactory progress. Order intake and working capital are at or better than target and indirect costs are coming down and moving towards their target. Our gross margin needs to improve. Key to gross margin improvement is a step up in project execution which is a focus area for the company. With satisfactory progress on 3 out of the 4 key performance indicators we are improving our operational performance but there is still more work to do. For the full year, we confirm our outlook of a positive operational EBITDA.”
