Atea CEO Steinar Sønsteby commented: "Atea had a very strong first quarter in a volatile market environment. Hardware order volumes increased significantly as customers sought to secure supply for their IT investments ahead of anticipated component shortages. In addition, underlying demand for IT investment remains robust. Atea is working closely with partners and customers to mitigate supply challenges. Our scale, strategic partnerships, and solid balance sheet position Atea as a stable and reliable supplier for customers during periods of market volatility."
