JOAKIM NYDEMARK, CEO, COMMENTS:
“I am pleased that the positive trend from Q4 continued during Q1, with an increase in net sales to SEK 21.7 (19.2) million and a noticeable improvement in the operating profit before depreciation (EBITDA) to SEK 3.1 (–0.6) million. Had it not been for two slightly delayed customer payments totaling SEK 11 million (the payments were registered at the beginning of April), cash flow for the quarter would also have been strong. With net sales moving in the right direction and a positive profit before depreciation, I have an optimistic view of the future.
In addition to a strong focus on customers and intensive marketing within our two business areas, we have continued to work on streamlining our processes in order to further accelerate our progress towards profitable growth. Precise Biometrics has consolidated its world-leading position in biometrics with several new partner agreements and collaborations and is in a stronger position than ever. We now have a well-positioned, diversified product portfolio focused on products including ultrasound sensors, which have both higher growth and better margins than other types of sensors, which bodes well for the future.”
