Thruvision Group said Friday that its pretax loss narrowed in fiscal 2023 as revenue increased due to strong order intake from a U.S. customer. The London-listed provider of screening technology said its pretax loss narrowed to 979,000 pounds ($1.3 million) in the year ended March 31 from a loss of GBP1.9 million in fiscal 2022. Adjusted pretax loss–a metric stripping out exceptional and one-off items–narrowed to GBP800,000 from GBP2.3 million on a year prior, the company said. Revenue climbed to GBP12.4 million from GBP8.4 million, driven by a large multiyear order from U.S. Customs and Border Protections which, together with related orders from the same customer, contributed GBP8.3 million.

Schindler on Friday posted an increase in second-quarter revenue, largely driven by the execution of its order backlog.
