Organic sales growth between 3.5% and 5.5%6
EBIT margin target: 10.8% to 11.1% (unchanged)
Thales's Board of Directors (Euronext Paris: HO) met on July 20, 2022 to review the financial statements for the first half of 20227.
Over H1 2022, Thales achieved very solid results in spite of a complex operating environment marked by supply chain tensions and the geopolitical context.
Strong commercial momentum and the entry into force of the Rafale contract in the United Arab Emirates have enabled order intake to reach a record level of 11.2 billion, reinforcing visibility on future activity.
Organic sales growth exceeded 5% again, driven in particular by the digital identity and security segment (DIS, formerly Gemalto), which achieved double-digit growth for the third consecutive quarter.
The EBIT margin and free operating cash flow were ahead of plan.
Given the robustness of activity in the first months of 2022, and despite a global environment marked by high uncertainties, we have decided to raise our full year order intake and sales growth targets.
Our roadmap for the coming months is clear: accelerate recruitment, strengthen the resilience of our supply chains and manage the consequences of inflation while continuing to implement all our strategic initiatives.
I would like to once again thank our 80,000 employees who relentlessly create value for our customers every day
Patrice Caine, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer
