"Strong customer demand and execution drove revenue growth of 38% year-over-year and order intake growth of 17% year-over-year, reflecting our highest ever third quarter order intake. Combined with a healthy backlog and increased visibility into the remainder of the year, we raise our full-year revenue guidance to around USD 750 million, up from around USD 700 million at Q2", said CEO Mats Hovland Vikse.
“Innovation remains at our core of our goal to provide autonomous and intelligent fulfillment. As supply chains become increasingly strategic to our customers, they are looking for solutions that improve productivity, flexibility and resilience. With today’s acquisition of Logiqs we add another core technology that, over time, will bring roaming pallet AS/RS capabilities to the AutoStore platform, helping us address a broader set of needs for both new and existing customers,” said Mats Hovland Vikse, CEO of AutoStore.
