Revenues for Q1-2016 finished at € 1.4 million against € 0.6 million in Q1-2015.

DRONE VOLT is excited about the successful launch of its subsidiary DRONE VOLT SCANDINAVIA and its export office operated from France.

This international deployment will continue and will be strengthened in the coming quarters with the addition of new offices in the US and Switzerland, and subsidiaries in Canada and Benelux.

This quarter, DRONE VOLT also confirmed the successful launch of its new brand, "by DRONE VOLT", which offers innovative solutions and strategic turnkey products for professionals in the audiovisual, agriculture, construction and security sectors. Sales to Professionals and Businesses represented 80% of the total business, with 20% of sales to individuals.

DRONE VOLT has also been pursuing other new business developments and has recently announced the launch of Z18 UF by DRONE VOLT.
