Thales SA backed its 2021 guidance on Tuesday after reporting slightly lower sales and higher order intake in its third quarter.
泰利斯公司(Thales SA)週二支持其2021年指引，此前該公司公佈第三季度銷售額略有下降，訂單數量有所增加。
The French aerospace-and-defense company posted sales of 3.56 billion euros ($4.15 billion) in the July-September period, compared with EUR3.58 billion the prior year. Organically, sales fell 1.4% due to a "high basis of comparison," especially at its defense-and-security division, it said.
這家法國航空航天和防務公司7-9月的銷售額為35.6億歐元(合41.5億美元)，而去年同期為35.8億歐元。該公司表示，從有機角度看，由於“比較基數較高”，銷售額下降了1.4%，尤其是國防和安全部門的銷售額下降了1.4%。
Thales's ground-transportation-systems business is now excluded from the results and guidance after the company said in August that it was selling the unit to Japanese conglomerate Hitachi Ltd.'s subsidiary Hitachi Rail. Thales said Tuesday that a definitive agreement for the disposal should happen in the first quarter of next year.
泰利斯公司8月份表示將把地面運輸系統業務出售給日本日立公司(Hitachi Ltd.)的子公司日立鐵路(Hitachi Rail)後，該公司的地面運輸系統業務現在被排除在業績和指引之外。泰利斯公司週二説，出售的最終協議應該會在明年第一季度達成。
Its civil aeronautics and biometrics businesses continue to suffer from the coronavirus pandemic, it said.
該公司表示，其民用航空和生物識別業務繼續受到冠狀病毒大流行的影響。
The global semiconductor shortage had an impact of EUR20 million to EUR30 million on the sales of its digital identity and security division since the beginning of 2021 and the situation isn't improving, with tensions on the supply chain that should remain next year, Thales's Chief Financial Officer Pascal Bouchiat said during a call with journalists. In the third quarter, the digital identity and security division booked sales of EUR736 million, up 0.4% organically.
泰利斯公司首席財務長布基亞特(Pascal Bouchiat)在與記者的電話會議上説，自2021年初以來，全球半導體短缺對其數字身份和安全部門的銷售造成了2,000萬至3,000萬歐元的影響，情況並未改善，供應鏈上的緊張局勢應該會持續到明年。第三季度，數字身份和安全部門的銷售額為7.36億歐元，有機增長0.4%。
Order intake rose to EUR2.99 billion from EUR2.73 billion.
訂單收入從27.3億歐元增加到29.9億歐元。
