Inside information: Gofore Plc’s Business Review October 2024: October net sales 18.8 million euros
Inside information: Gofore’s net sales were 18.8 (18.7) million euros in October 2024. The Group’s last 12-month (LTM) pro forma net sales were 188.1 million euros. The Group employed 1,472 (1,466) people at the end of October.
CEO Mikael Nylund comments:
"October net sales were 18.8 million euros. Utilisation rate remained at the level of September during Finland's autumn holiday month.
The number of employees and our own capacity increased. The amount of subcontracting decreased slightly due to the autumn holidays in October. This month, there was a clear difference in the development of the number of employees between Finland's positive (+8) and the negative development outside of Finland (-10). The decrease in the number of employees is partly due to the previously mentioned restructuring in the DACH region, such as the closure of the Bolzano branch office.
Sales highlights in October included the wins of framework agreements with the City of Helsinki, Istekki, and Fintraffic. We continue our long-standing, good cooperation with the City of Helsinki now through extensive development, which includes architecture, project management, low-code/no-code application development, as well as quality assurance and testing automation – in other words, a wide range of services from our broad offering. The total value of the four-year contract is approximately 55 million euros, and we are involved in 7 out of 10 areas of the framework arrangement, being the priority supplier in one area.
Our good collaboration also continues with Istekki, who provides IT services to wellbeing service counties and municipalities. The value of the four-year framework agreement for expert and consulting services related to this extensive service development concerning Gofore is approximately 10.9 million euros. A maximum of five suppliers were selected for each area, with whom Istekki will make area-specific framework agreements.
The framework arrangement for Fintraffic's ICT architecture consulting services involves two years and two option years of enterprise architecture consulting. We are one of three suppliers in this framework arrangement, and the total value of the contract is approximately 0.9 million euros."
