CEO Karl Kenny commented on the results.

“Since the beginning of 2022, Kraken has announced approximately $13 million of new contracts across our Products and Services businesses. As the year progresses, our Services business, led by PanGeo, will see continued performance as the volume of activity increases in the offshore renewables sector. In our Products business, we expect to complete delivery of all systems to the Royal Danish Navy and execute on new contract awards. We have the right solutions at the right time and see strong demand opportunities in the defense and commercial markets. Market trends and our contract pursuits pipeline continue to grow in our favour. As noted below, we re-iterate our continued delivery execution and solid financial guidance for 2022.”

In 2022, Kraken expects revenue to be in the $36 – $42 million range, with adjusted EBITDA in the $5 – $7 million range. Operational results in 2022 will be driven by the continued delivery of systems to the Royal Danish Navy, a full year impact from the acquisition of PanGeo and continued deliveries of our AquaPix® synthetic aperture sonar and SeaPower™ battery products. During 2022, Kraken is also expected to receive progress payments on two large contracts amounting to $14.4 million.

Kraken Robotics is a Canada-based marine technology company focused on software-centric sensors, subsea batteries and thrusters, and underwater robotic systems.
