("Windar" or the "Company")
New Order Update
and
New North America Sales Agency Agreement
Windar Photonics (AIMN: WPHO), the technology group that has developed a cost efficient and innovative LiDAR wind sensor for use on electricity generating wind turbines, is pleased to announce that, further to the reference to a future order in our December trading update, it has received two new confirmed orders from Chinese customers with a combined gross value of €1.3m, both for delivery in 2024. These orders take the cumulative order intake over the last two months to €3.9m for the Chinese market and this keeps the Company well on track to meet its ambitious production and revenue targets for the current financial year.
The Company is also pleased to announce that it has recently entered into a sales agency agreement with AC883 Nordic Trade Services, an established operator in the North American Wind Turbine sector, which is expected to assist Windar in extending and building on its existing market presence in that territory. We look forward to this new relationship bearing fruit in the form of additional orders from North America in due course.
Jorgen Korsgaard Jensen, CEO commented:
"I am pleased to report further progress on orders received since early December from China, assisted by Windar having its own sales and service team on the ground in Shanghai. With the new sales agency agreement with AC883 Nordic Trade Services, we would expect this to underpin and accelerate our growth in the North American market."
