Guidance for 2024

Green Hydrogen Systems maintains the guidance for 2024 as announced on 8 February 2024 (company announcement 04/2024).

Guidance for 2024 is summarised as follows:

Revenue, DKK 125 to 165 million
EBITDA, DKK -260 to -220 million
CAPEX, DKK 160 to 200 million

The revenue guidance range reflects the uncertainty of the exact timing of the electrolysers passing revenue recognition criteria within the 2024 calendar year. Furthermore, the exact delivery, site acceptance test (SAT), revenue recognition, and EBITDA may be negatively impacted by, e.g. supply chain disruptions, increasing component and raw material costs, general inflation, delays in product assembly and pandemics.

Peter Friis, CEO of Green Hydrogen Systems, says:

"We are pleased to continue showing positive momentum in customer deliveries, order intake, and product developments. This momentum is the foundation for our planned accelerated roll-out of the A-Series electrolyser to customers throughout the year and our expected first sales of the X-Series product.”
