At the same time, the secunet Group has a record order volume of 115.2 million euros at the end of the first quarter of 2020. This significantly exceeds the comparable order volume achieved to date at the end of the first quarter (31 March 2019: Euro 84.4m) and at the end of the financial year (31 December 2019: Euro 78.5m). The high order backlog is the result of a very high level of incoming orders for secure mobile solutions, especially for the SINA Workstation, as well as the order to replace Telekom's healthcare connectors.
In particular against the background of the high level of orders on hand, the Management Board confirms its forecast for the 2020 fiscal year published with the 2019 annual financial statements on 30 March 2020. Subject to the further development of the COVID 19 pandemic, a slight decline in sales revenues is expected to continue and, accordingly, EBIT for the secunet Group is expected to be slightly below the previous year.
