– ARCHOS announces that the consolidated turnover of its subsidiary LOGIC INSTRUMENT is up 26% compared to 2021. This increase is the result of the gradual recovery of its customers’ activities, particularly in Germany and abroad (customers in the USA and in Turkey).
The gross margin was €3.0 million, the margin rate was up by 0.6 points.
Operating expenses increased by €0.28 million. This change is mainly due to the increase in other purchases and external charges (+€0.12 million) relating in particular to the increase in transport costs and other charges (+0.14) relating to losses on receivables (compensated by reversals of provisions in other income).
Operating income improved by +€0.4 million. The exceptional result amounts to +0.24 M€ and corresponds for 0.15 M€ to the proceeds of the cancellation of an old Coface export debt (contract of 2015) and for 0.09 M€ to the Covid cost subsidies of 2021 in Germany.
LOGIC INSTRUMENT posts a positive net result of €0.02 million in 2022 against a loss of €0.84 million in 2021

The main change elements are as follows:
Increase of €0.7 million linked to receipt of new products.
The group’s cash is down by €1.2 million, mainly due to the impact on WCR of the growth in activity (-€0.9 million) and the repayment of loans.
Outlook 2022
As of December 31, 2022, the LOGIC INSTRUMENT group posted a healthy balance sheet situation and managed to limit the impacts of the COVID 19 pandemic. The geopolitical context is favorable to LOGIC INSTRUMENT’s activities in the defense sector with an increase in budgets of investment in Europe with in particular a major project in Germany which will be invoiced in the first half of 2023. LOGIC INSTRUMENT has been in discussion since the end of 2022 with Glacier Computers for the acquisition of this company located in the Boston region in the USA.
