Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

Cicor Reports Strong YTD Sales Growth of 25%, Outlook Remains Positive
October 16, 2023 | Cicor Technologies Ltd.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Cicor Technologies Ltd. continued on its growth path in the third quarter of 2023. Quarterly sales increased by 22.4% to 95.3 million compared to the third quarter of the previous year (YTD: CHF 294.5 million, increase of 25.0%). Sales growth was driven by accelerated organic growth (11.7%) and acquisitions. The outlook for the fourth quarter remains positive, supported by a Q3 order intake of CHF 108 million resulting in a book-to-bill ratio of 1.13.
Cicor has further strengthened its position as one of the leading development and manufacturing partners for sophisticated electronics in the strategic target markets of medical technology, industrial as well as aerospace and defence in Europe. Robust customer demand especially in the medical and aerospace & defence markets combined with new customer wins supported Cicor's growth in the third quarter of 2023. Cicor is additionally benefiting from continued market growth driven by the trends of reshoring, customers seeking alternatives to manufacturing in China and increased outsourcing of electronics development and manufacturing.
Cicor continues to pursue its strategy of accelerated growth through both acquisitions and organic growth. The recently announced strategic partnership with the French Clayens Group has the potential to generate additional business for Cicor for smart drug delivery devices and other medical and industrial applications.
Based on the positive Q3 revenue and order intake progression, Cicor reconfirms its 2023 guidance to achieve annual sales of CHF 380 to 410 million and an operating result at EBITDA level of CHF 40 to 45 million.
