The Copenhagen-headquartered technology company recorded an all-time high annual net revenue of 1.5 billion Danish kroner (DKK), a 30% increase compared to 2021. Milestone reported a pre-tax profit of 11 million DKK in 2022. The company aims to more than double its 2021 revenue by 2026 as part of an ambitious growth strategy.
A key part of Milestone’s strategy is responsible technology. Last year, the company committed to the United Nations’ Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. Milestone will introduce further initiatives addressing how it develops technology and how its products are sold and used.
Thomas Jensen, chief executive of Milestone Systems, said; “It took 21 years to reach the first billion kroner in net revenue, but over just the last three years, we added half a billion kroner to our net turnover. That is a testament to the hard work, engagement, and innovation of our people.
2022 was a challenging year during which both Milestone and its customers had to learn to live with Covid-19 and maneuver the supply-chain challenges and component shortages brought on by the aftermath of the pandemic. The outbreak of war on European soil continued to have tragic consequences for the people involved. Along with other companies, we exited Russia as a result of the invasion of Ukraine. Despite inflation and energy price hikes last year, we grew our business by 30%. Through the strength of our network of technology partners, distributors, and resellers, we navigated a year which was almost a perfect storm.
Reflecting on Milestone’s growth ambitions, Thomas Jensen added; “As we enter our 25th anniversary year, we are in a strong position to follow our strategic direction to transform our industry by setting the standard for video technology in and beyond security, such as video-enabled solutions for hospitals. We also see many opportunities with the growth of artificial intelligence, which we believe will greatly expand the possibilities of data-driven video technology.”
