The company’s announcement noted a significant decline in revenue, from €275 million to €200 million, a drop of 27 percent. The reduction was attributed to a combination of lower contract volumes in the traffic‑control segment and delays in the implementation of certain projects.

The stock, which had been trading at €6.14 on 17 November 2025, fell to €6.10 on 18 November 2025, marking a new six‑month low. The broader ATX Prime index also experienced a modest decline during the same period, reflecting broader market volatility in Vienna.
