BPC Instruments reports results for Q1 2025

LUND, Sweden, May 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- BPC Instruments (publ) hereby publishes the interim report for the period January 1 - March 31, 2025. The interim report is available as an attachment to this release and on the company's website https://investor.bpcinstruments.com/financial-reports.

CEO Dr. Jing Liu comments:

"Demand for our technologies remains stable across key markets, although the first quarter came in below expectations. The outcome is mainly attributable to delayed orders from China, where the market continues to be affected by prolonged procurement processes and a challenging macroeconomic environment. During the period, we made strategic investments in innovation, organisational development and infrastructure—efforts that strengthen our operational capacity and support continued growth. While these investments have temporarily increased our cost base, we continue to see strong commercial activity and no indication of a shift in demand."
