Een vraag over order intake.
Harold C. A. Goddijn - TomTom N.V. - Co-Founder, Chairman of the Management Board & CEO
Yes., Francois thank you. Yes as you know, order intake is always lumpy. It's a binary process. It can vary from quarter-to-quarter. But if I give you the general trend, and I think that's what you're asking for, we saw, particularly in the first half, very strong activity with a number of awards. We're very pleased with that. Over the summer months, this slowed down, and that is also to be expected, nothing unusual in that. I think for the last quarter, it's hard to predict where we'll end up. We're working on things but it's not sure whether that will be awarded this year. And it's also not sure that will be awarded to us, of course. But I think the overall activity level is still at a good level and probably stronger than what we have seen last year.
- lumpy , per jaar toch zeker ook.
Neem een voorbeeld aan Fugro.
After very low levels in March and April, order intake recovered during May and June, resulting in a growth of the 12-month backlog by 1.1%.
Recovery of order intake during second quarter, resulting in backlog growth of 1.1%.
Het volgende hoeft TT niet te plaatsen, want ze hebben geen schuld.
