Guardforce AI Announces Preliminary Full Year 2021 Results
While the decline in the stock was significant, it should be noted that there was no news at all about the company yesterday and the decline may, in fact, appear random to many investors. In this situation, it may be a good move from investors to consider taking a look at the development from last week.
On January 11, the integrated security solutions provider announced the preliminary unaudited results for the fiscal year that had ended on December 31, 2021. For the full year, the company noted that it had managed to bring in net revenues in the $33 million to $35 million range.
However, that represented a decline of 9.3% to 14.5% from the net revenues in the previous year. However, in 2022, the company expected the net revenues to be in the $55 million to $66 million range. That would represent growth in excess of 66%.
