“Any profit we generate above a 15% operating margin will be reinvested in growth opportunities—a strategy that has proved successful for Sectra’s shareholders in the past.”
Sectra operates in the expanding niche segments of medical IT and cybersecurity—a combination that makes us unique. Our work enable hospitals and those training future healthcare personnel to improve their efficiency and thus take care of more patients and save more lives. In addition, we provide greater security for society’s most critical communication and IT systems which contributes to a more stable and secure society.
1. A corporate culture that delivers high customer satisfaction
A strong corporate culture clearly focused on customer value and employees who are passionate about making a difference lead to satisfied customers and extremely low churn. To safeguard our corporate culture and customer satisfaction, growth is primarily organic.
2. Stability, profitability and long-term growth
Sectra has an over 45-year history of growth and profitability. More than half of the company’s sales comprise recurring revenue from long-term customer contracts, a share that is growing due to an ongoing transition to service sales.
3. International, growing niche markets
IT for healthcare and cybersecurity for critical social functions are both rapidly changing markets. Drivers such as an aging population and increased digitization mean that investments are necessary, regardless of the economy. This creates major growth opportunities and gives Sectra a good foundation for long-term success.
4. Strong brand with multinational reach
Sectra is an established brand in our niche areas where trust and stable products are important success factors. We have a multinational reach, with thousands of customers worldwide using our products or services to benefit millions of people.
5. High pace of innovation and exciting future prospects
By continuously investing in new and enhanced products and services, including how they are packaged and delivered, we create value for our customers. We also have a self-financed portfolio of research and business projects with the potential to add significant value in the future.
6. Sustainable business model
Contributing to a healthier and safer society by creating significant value for our customers is the foundation of Sectra’s operations and business model. By helping customers improve the efficiency and quality of patient care and strengthen cybersecurity in critical social functions, we create long-term value and contribute to a more sustainable society.
7. Long-standing owners and dedicated management
With principal owners who have been part of the company since the 1980s, there is a strong long-term dedication to the company’s development. This is further evidenced by the fact that all members of Group Management are shareholders in Sectra.
Sectra’s success is attributable to the fact that we always put the customer first. We solve customer problems within our areas of expertise and help them become more efficient by having a deep understanding of their daily processes and needs.
