PARIS, Nov. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- ("Intersec" or the "Company"), a global leader in mobility and activity data solutions, reported its results for the Fiscal Year 2021 ending March 31st, 2021. Intersec designs and markets innovative and disruptive software in 80 countries, enabling fast data analytics, mass communication, and AI-based decisions.

Intersec sales orders rose by 60% to a record of €13 million in the last fiscal year, compared with €8 million in the previous year, at increasing demand for its mobility and activity data solutions despite the COVID pandemic. The gross margin reached 70%, showing a well-industrialized product portfolio and implementation methodology. EBIT has remained well within positive territory since 2020, which is evidence that Intersec is in the right direction on sustainable and profitable growth. Cash grew by 400% as a consequence of both significant cash flow generation from operations and the trust of the Company's main financial partners.

In the last year, the company reshaped its commercial offer and strongly increased its order portfolio. A large backlog of long-term recurring revenues gives the company and its stakeholders tremendous visibility. By mid-year FY22, the company already had visibility on 94% of its revenue budget as well as an order backlog accounting for almost 1.5 years of revenue. The FY22 revenue forecast is €14 million, representing 40% growth year over year.

Yann Chevalier, Intersec CEO:
"I am very pleased with our team's record performance. We have exceeded all expectations in the context of the pandemic and are seizing new opportunities to accelerate profitable growth in all our industries and geographies. We are capitalizing on the growing demand for our Public Safety suite.
