"2021 was marked by multiple milestones for us, including the listing on the AeRO market of the Bucharest Stock Exchange, and in terms of financial results, it was the best year in the history of Simtel. In the context of rising energy prices, the activity in renewable energy has undoubtedly been our key priority, managing to win significant new projects over the past year. In 2022, we plan to continue to grow our business, both organically and through acquisitions. Our long-term vision is to create a strong mix of energy and telecommunications service integrators with robotic hardware and software platforms. For 2022, we estimate revenues of 103.7 million lei, an increase of 76% compared to 2021, and a net profit of 11.6 million lei, +87% compared to 2021. We expect green energy to contribute with 90.4 million lei in total revenues, while telecommunications will bring 9.1 million lei," stated Iulian Nedea, co-founder and CEO of Simtel Team.

Telecommunications contributed 29% to the total turnover, an increase of 1 pp compared to 2020. Therefore, the green energy division contributed approximately 40.4 million lei to the turnover for 2021, compared to 28.9 million lei in 2020.

Simtel Team's activity in the field of renewable energy in 2021 is confirmed by the company's involvement in several important projects to develop this sector. Simtel Team installed two photovoltaic power plants on two Kaufland Romania stores in Bucharest and Focșani.

The company implemented for IKEA a photovoltaic project on the Pallady store in Bucharest. In 2021, the company also built more than 20 photovoltaic power plants for Penny Market stores in Romania and continued to implement photovoltaic plants for Dedeman stores as the sole supplier.

During the past year, the company signed significant contracts for future projects in renewable energy with clients such as REWE Romania and Fan Courier.

Also, in the field of renewable energy, in 2021, Simtel teams built over 300 photovoltaic plants, each 3.3 kWp for Telekom Romania at mobile base stations, and implemented photovoltaic plants at Vodafone Romania data centers.

The company also designed, supplied, and implemented a network of 35 charging stations for electric cars in Dedeman stores.

In addition, Simtel Team has carried out one of the few photovoltaic projects built on the open field in Romania in the last seven years, at Ștefănești Argeș for RadicStar, with an installed capacity of 1MWp on an area of approximately 2 ha.

In 2022, the Simtel Team will continue to invest in the company's business development. In addition to the existing business lines, namely EPC for renewable energy, telecommunications, industrial automation, the company plans to consolidate the business lines launched in 2021, respectively charging stations for electric cars and the distribution of equipment and components used in the construction of photovoltaic plants.

Simtel Team will also complete its expertise portfolio with electricity production by building at least one photovoltaic power plant that will remain the property of Simtel this year, but also with energy forecasting and trading services on behalf of customers, following the acquisition of the 51% stake in the ANT Power company, announced at the end of last year.

In the second quarter and the beginning of the third quarter of this year, the company will carry out a share capital increase operation. The raised capital will be used for carrying out all signed or ongoing projects that will bring substantial increases in the company's turnover.
