Today Vow ASA published its Annual and Sustainability Report 2022.

In his letter to the shareholders and stakeholders, Vow's Chief Executive Officer, Henrik Badin, writes:

"Amid an ongoing war in Ukraine and turmoil in the world economy and trade, a looming energy crisis, and increasing costs of goods and capital, 2022 was a year of records for Vow. We saw a 72 per cent increase in revenues from the year before to NOK 783 million and profits that more than doubled to NOK 92 million."

With growth in all three business segments and a comfortable order back log at NOK 1.2 billion, Vow also reports good visibility for revenues and cash generation short term and well into 2025/26.

"The cruise industry shows no sign of slowing down, and with the strong order backlog we have in Projects and recurring business in Aftersales, this business will continue to play a key role in Vow, generating revenues that we will convert to profits and cash. On land, the race continues for carbon-neutral technology and solutions in industry and energy production, carbon sequestration and circular solutions for various raw materials, which some still erroneously call waste. These trends create strong and increasing demand for our solutions, which are further strengthened by policy and fiscal stimuli, such as the Inflation Reduction Act in the US and similar policies that are currently being considered in Europe", Badin adds.
