CEO comments, Jessica Skon
“BTS is continuing to invest in digital services at record high levels to meet an increasing demand. Customers are asking for simulations at scale, more personalized services, better data and more learning in the flow of work. This is a major opportunity for us.”
Upgraded outlook for 2022
“The result is expected to be significantly better than in the preceding year, which deviates from the previous report when the result was expected to be better than in the preceding year. However, the market conditions have turned more volatile and less predictable and we have seen an increased rate of cancellations from some clients, which makes our outlook more uncertain than usual.”
