Kommentar frÄn vd

Sekventiell omsÀttningstillvÀxt, starkt kassaflöde och positivt nettoresultat

Den positiva försÀljningstrenden vi upplevde i det andra kvartalet fortsatte in i detta kvartal, vilket avspeglas i en sekventiell omsÀttningstillvÀxt om 11 procent, ett positivt nettoresultat om 2,9 Mkr samt ett positivt kassaflöde om 202,5 Mkr.

Vi behÄller vÄrt fokus pÄ att sÀnka vÄra omkostnader och öka vÄra produkters kostnadseffektivitet för att möta prispressen inom kapacitiva sensorer. Kostnadsbesparingsprogrammet som lanserades i juni löper enligt plan. Som tidigare kommunicerat lanserade vi i somras en fingeravtryckssensor med lÀgre produktionskostnad relativt nuvarande generation av sensorer, men med fortsatt hög biometrisk prestanda. Denna sensor - FPC1511 - har nu genomgÄtt alla tester med mycket gott resultat, och den har mottagits vÀl av flera stora OEM-kunder. Vi har redan fÄtt de första volymbestÀllningarna, och vi förvÀntar oss att de första mobiltelefonerna som anvÀnder sig av FPC1511 kommer att lanseras i slutet av detta Är eller i början av 2019.

Fortsatt ledarskapsposition pÄ en utmanande marknad

 Fingerprints position Àr fortsatt mycket stark inom kapacitiva fingeravtryckssensorer för smartphones. Vi har för avsikt att behÄlla vÄr ledarskapsposition inom mobilsegmentet genom att fortsÀtta öka kostnadseffektiviteten parallellt med att utveckla nya innovativa produkter. Biometriska lösningar för smartphones kommer fortsatt att vara en attraktiv marknad. Vi ser dock att marknaden för kapacitiva fingeravtryckssensorer för smartphones fortsÀtter att minska i vÀrde. Detta beror dels pÄ att genomsnittspriset för dessa sensorer gÄr ner, dels pÄ att volymerna förvÀntas sjunka i takt med att alternativ teknologi vinner mark pÄ bekostnad av den kapacitiva sensorn. PrisnedgÄngen pÄ kapacitiva sensorer under 2018 kommer att överstiga 30 procent. Den negativa pristrenden förvÀntas fortsÀtta in i 2019, Àven om minskningstakten bedöms bli lÀgre Àn i Är.

Kommersiella in-displaylösningar, som integrerar fingeravtryckssensorn i skÀrmen pÄ en smartphone, introducerades pÄ marknaden under 2018. Volymerna Àr Ànnu relativt smÄ, men vi bedömer att in-displayteknologin under 2019 kommer att göra framsteg pÄ marknaden. Eftersom genomsnittspriset för in-displaysensorer för nÀrvarande Àr betydligt högre, innebÀr detta att in-display sannolikt kommer att stÄ för en betydande del av det sammanlagda vÀrdet pÄ marknaden för fingeravtryckssensorer för smartphones under 2019.

Jag ser ljust pÄ potentialen inom mobilsegmentet och pÄ Fingerprints möjligheter att behÄlla vÄr starka stÀllning genom fortsatt produktinnovation. Som tidigare kommunicerat bedriver vi utvecklingsprojekt inom in-display, och vi avser att under 2019 ta en position pÄ marknaden för in-displaysensorer med vÄr optiska sensorteknologi.

Nya marknader för biometri

Intresset för biometriska lösningar Àr stort och ökande Àven utanför mobilsegmentet. Det omrÄde dÀr vi ser störst potential de nÀrmsta Ären Àr biometriska smarta kort. Vi har redan sett en certifiering av kontaktbaserade biometriska smarta kort, och mycket tyder pÄ att kortvarumÀrkenas certifieringar av kontaktlösa biometriska kort kan komma att ske under den första halvan av 2019. Detta Àr en förutsÀttning för att kortutgivarna ska kunna börja planera och budgetera för en bred marknadsintroduktion. Fingerprints Àr mycket vÀl positionerat för att ta en betydande andel av denna framvÀxande marknad. Om man tittar pÄ de offentliggjorda marknadstesterna som hittills genomförts i vÀrlden, sÄ kan man konstatera att Fingerprints finns med i samtliga tester av kontaktlösa biometriska kort, vilket Àr den mest intressanta tillÀmpningen för biometri inom kortomrÄdet. Under 2019 kommer aktiviteten att öka ytterligare med ett betydande antal tester. AffÀrsvolymerna under nÀsta Är kommer att vara blygsamma, men vi förvÀntar oss att se en bredare kommersiell lansering under 2020.

Vi sÀkrade redan under det andra kvartalet i Är de första bestÀllningarna av vÄr T-Shape-modul för biometriska smarta kort frÄn tvÄ globala korttillverkare, och under det tredje kvartalet meddelade vi att Fingerprints stödjer sin mÄngÄriga partner Zwipe i dess samarbete med Silone CardTech - en Kinabaserad korttillverkare certifierad av VISA, Mastercard, China UnionPay och JCB - för att lansera kontakt- och kontaktlösa biometriska kort med banker och lojalitetsprogram i Kina.

Under kvartalet stÀrkte vi ytterligare vÄrt erbjudande gentemot fordonsindustrin, dÀr vi sedan tidigare har ett exklusivt samarbetsavtal med Gentex för att utveckla biometriska system för att autentisera föraren med hjÀlp av irisigenkÀnning. Vi har nu ocksÄ lanserat en fingeravtryckssensor som Àr anpassad för fordonsbranschen, dÀr biometriska lösningar kan bidra till att leverera individanpassad funktionalitet som ökar bÄde bekvÀmlighet och sÀkerhet. Produkten Àr klar för massproduktion och integration i fordon i samarbete med ledande modultillverkare och underleverantörer till fordonsindustrin. De första produktutvecklingsprojekten som integrerar denna fingeravtryckssensor i fordon förvÀntas börja under 2019.

CEO’s comments

Sequential revenue growth, strong cash flow and positive net result

The positive sales trend that we experienced in the second quarter continued in this quarter, which was reflected in sequential revenue growth of 11 percent, a positive net result of SEK 2.9 M and positive cash flow of SEK 202.5 M.

We are maintaining our focus on reducing our costs and increasing our products’ cost effectiveness to meet the price pressure within capacitive sensors. The cost reduction program launched in June is proceeding to plan. As previously communicated, during the summer we launched a fingerprint sensor with a lower production cost relative to the present generation of sensors, but whose biometric performance remains high. This sensor - FPC1511 - has now undergone all tests with highly favorable results and it has been well received by several major OEM customers. We have already received the first volume orders and we expect the first commercial mobile phones using FPC1511 to be launched at the end of this year or at the start of 2019.

Continued leadership position in a challenging market

Fingerprints’ market position remains very strong in capacitive fingerprint sensors for smartphones. We intend to retain our leadership position in the mobile segment by continuing to increase our cost efficiency in parallel with the development of new, innovative products. Biometric solutions for smartphones will remain an attractive market. However, we see a continued decline in the value of the market for capacitive fingerprint sensors for smartphones. This is partly attributable to the average selling price for these sensors declining and partly that the volumes are expected to fall as alternative technology gains ground at the expense of the capacitive sensor. The price decline for capacitive sensors in 2018 will exceed 30%. The negative price trend is expected to continue into 2019, although the pace of decline is expected to be lower than this year.

Commercial in-display solutions that integrate fingerprint sensors in the display of a smartphone were launched in the market in 2018. The volumes are still relatively small, but we anticipate that the in-display technology will make progress in the market in 2019. Since the average price for in-display sensors is currently significantly higher, this means that in-display will probably represent a significant portion of the total value of the market for fingerprint sensors for smartphones in 2019.

I take a bright view of the potential in the mobile segment and of Fingerprints’ potential to retain its strong position through continued product innovation. As previously communicated, we are conducting development projects in in-display, and in 2019, we intend to capture a position in the market for in-display sensors with our optical sensor technology.

New markets for biometrics

The interest in biometric solutions is extensive and increasing, also outside the mobile segment. The area in which we foresee the greatest potential in the years immediately ahead is the segment for biometric smart cards. We have already seen one certification of a contact-based biometric smart card, and it seems likely that the major payment card brands will certify contactless cards during the first half of 2019. This is a prerequisite for card issuers to be able to plan and budget for a broad market introduction. Fingerprints is very well positioned to capture a significant share of this emerging market. If we look at the publicly announced market tests conducted to date in the world, we can see that Fingerprints is included in all of the tests of contactless biometric cards, which is the most interesting application for biometrics in the area of cards. During 2019, activity will increase further with a significant number of tests. Business volumes next year will be modest, but we expect to see a broader commercial launch in 2020.

Already during the second quarter, we secured the first orders for our T-Shape-module for biometric smart cards from two global card manufacturers, and during the third quarter, we announced that Fingerprints is supporting its partner of many years, Zwipe, in its work with Silone CardTech - a China-based card manufacturer certified by VISA, Mastercard, China UnionPay and JCB - to launch contact and contactless biometric cards with banks and loyalty programs in China.

During the quarter, we further strengthened our offering towards the automotive industry, adding to our exclusive collaborative agreement with Gentex to develop biometric systems that can authenticate drivers based on iris recognition. We have now also launched a fingerprint sensor that is adapted to the automotive industry, where biometric solutions can contribute to delivering individually adapted functionality that enhances comfort and safety. The product is ready for mass production and integration in vehicles in collaboration with leading module manufacturers and suppliers to the automotive industry. The first product development projects to integrate this fingerprint sensor in vehicles are expected to commence in 2019.

Christian Fredrikson, President and CEO

Today at 09:00 CET Fingerprints’ CEO Christian Fredrikson will present the report together with CFO Per Sundqvist in a combined webcast and telephone conference. The presentation will be held in English.

Ja, fÞlger den. Var inne og solgte meg ut pÄ rundt 13. RSI var hÞy og turte ikke sitte sÄ mye lengre. Burde ha ventet litt ser jeg :blush: Men gevinst er gevinst.

Jeg skal inn igjen i denne, men venter pÄ en dipp. Det er skummelt Ä gÄ inn nÄ i hvert fall. RSI 1d nesten 80.

De har holdt pÄ en stund nÄ med et stort kostnadsreduksjonsprogram som har funket bra. Omsetningen begynner Ä ta seg opp igjen ref siste kvartalstall. De har lansert en ny generasjon sensor FPC1511 med bedre margin som begynner Ä fÄ salg. SÄ kommer etter hvert bÞlgen med biometri i kort (som jeg i hvert fall tror kommer).

Massivt volum pÄ oppgangen de siste par dagene!
