Detection Technology reported October 29 that third-quarter sales rose 9.2% to €27.0 million, supported by growth in medical and industrial applications.

The Finnish X-ray imaging company’s medical sales increased 33.4% to €13.9 million. Industrial sales rose 31.5% to €5.9 million, while security applications fell 26.5% to €7.2 million.

Those figures show a mixed quarter across its customer markets: medical applications generated more than half of revenue, while the security business contracted from €9.8 million a year earlier.

Regional performance also varied. Americas revenue increased 168.8% to €1.7 million from a small comparison base. Asia-Pacific sales rose 24.7% to €20.7 million, while Europe, the Middle East, India and Africa declined 38.9% to €4.6 million.

Despite the higher sales, operating profit measured as EBITA excluding non-recurring items fell to €2.5 million from €2.8 million. That adjusted measure should be distinguished from net income.

The figures cover July through September and were disclosed in the company’s January–September business review.
