To date, the Company has not had to introduce partial unemployment arrangements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since mid-March, employees able to do so have been working remotely and strict hygiene rules have been applied at all Group facilities worldwide. Readers are reminded that the Group\u2019s equipment is manufactured entirely in Europe at assembly plants located in France, Belgium and Hungary. All of these facilities are currently operating and able to manufacture EKINOPS products. Nonetheless, the working arrangements implemented to ensure compliance with hygiene and safety rules and protect employees are likely to reduce productivity.&nbsp; At the EKINOPS facility in Leuven (Belgium), social distancing and safety measures have led to a slight drop in productivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the situation is naturally changing rapidly, it is currently difficult to measure the exact effects it will have on business in 2020, particularly if the crisis lasts longer or if lockdown measures are tightened. This situation could affect the Group business volumes and thereby this year\u2019s financial targets. The Group will keep its shareholders and the market informed of any related material developments affecting its business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In terms of procurement, EKINOPS preemptively ordered the components and parts needed to carry out all Q1 2020 and most Q2 2020 equipment deliveries. Thanks to the gradual recovery of business in China, procurement issues affecting certain components are no longer a major concern for the Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Financial reporting calendar<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Date<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Release<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Wednesday, April 8, 2020<\/strong><\/td><td>Q1 2020 revenue (unaudited)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Thursday, May 28, 2020<\/strong><\/td><td>General Meeting<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Thursday, July 9, 2020<\/strong><\/td><td>Q2 2020 revenue (unaudited)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Tuesday, July 28, 2020<\/strong><\/td><td>H1 2020 results (limited review)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Monday, October 12, 2020<\/strong><\/td><td>Q3 2020 revenue (unaudited)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Tuesday, January 12, 2021<\/strong><\/td><td>FY 2020 revenue (unaudited)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All press releases are published after Euronext Paris market close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" id=\"_ftn1\">[1]<\/a> The URD is a regulatory documentation available in French only &#8211; Annual financial statements will be made available in English in that section.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EKINOPS (Euronext Paris &#8211; FR0011466069 \u2013 EKI), fournisseur leader de solutions de t\u00e9l\u00e9communications d\u00e9di\u00e9es aux op\u00e9rateurs de t\u00e9l\u00e9communications, annonce le d\u00e9p\u00f4t de son Document d\u2019enregistrement universel (URD) 2019 aupr\u00e8s de l&#8217;Autorit\u00e9 des march\u00e9s financiers (AMF) le 3 avril 2020 sous le num\u00e9ro de d\u00e9p\u00f4t n\u00b0 D.20-0255.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3139,"template":"","press-releases-category":[86],"class_list":["post-3191","press-releases","type-press-releases","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","press-releases-category-corporate"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ekinops.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/press-releases\/3191","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ekinops.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/press-releases"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ekinops.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/press-releases"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ekinops.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.ekinops.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/press-releases\/3191\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3755,"href":"https:\/\/www.ekinops.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/press-releases\/3191\/revisions\/3755"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ekinops.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3139"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ekinops.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3191"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"press-releases-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ekinops.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/press-releases-category?post=3191"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
