Dette blir absolutt spennende å følge med på fremover. Dog vil nok salget av FAP 20 og FAP 30 sensorer styre kurs en god stund (nærmeste året. )

NEXT confirms new bank design win in India

NEXT Biometrics, (NEXT), a leading provider of advanced Active Thermal sensor technology, confirms new design win in India. NEXT’s partner, Access Compute Pvt. Ltd. (ACPL), has received an order for its L1 certified module for a new use case and design win. The order is for one of the largest public sector, banks in India, which will be using NEXT’s fingerprint sensors in a tablet for Aadhaar authentication purposes. Deliveries will start in Q1 2025.

The NOK 0.6 million order from one of the largest banks in India is for NEXT’s FAP20 sensors, which will be integrated in a tablet and used for Aadhar authentication purposes. The order was received despite the upgrade of liveness specification UADAI has made, which indicates the high confidence our partner has in the reopening of the L1 biometrics market in India.

“We are very proud that our key partner has received this order from one of the most prominent banks in the Indian banking industry. The L1 transition is progressing rapidly right now with the banking sector leading the change, closely followed by various other sectors”, said Digvijay Singh Kanwar, Senior Vice President and Head of Sales India, USA, EU and Africa (IUEA), at NEXT.

“The end customers now understand and appreciate the value of our liveness detection and the added security it brings. As a positive result, we have noticed an increased demand, where agencies specifically ask for our FAP20 Active Thermal technology fingerprint sensors. NEXT is well prepared to serve the Aadhaar L1 market with its high-end sensors”, concluded Digvijay Singh Kanwar.

“The banking system requires high security solutions; hence, we led this tender with NEXT’s FAP20 sensors, which specializes in liveness detection. We are very thrilled and excited that the bank will now be implementing one of the most secure solutions that exist on the market.” Ajay Sinha, Managing Director, ACPL.

The tablet will be supplied to the bank by an un-named Indian OEM, using L1 Aadhaar modules from NEXT’s long-term partner, ACPL.

NEXT Biometrics Excels in Indian Testing – Strengthening Market Position

March 6, 2025 – NEXT Biometrics, the leader in advanced high-security fingerprint sensor technology, has received notification that its partner Access Computech Pvt. Ltd. (ACPL) has passed the upgraded anti-spoofing tests, which will end the shipment pause that was announced on 16 January 2025.

The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) decided to temporarily pause the enrollment of all new L1 devices as a security precaution in late 2024 because of a security incident at one competitor’s Aadhaar integration. The UIDAI implemented new stringent liveness detection and anti-spoofing guidelines and testing procedures as part of its Aadhaar’s biometric specifications. The testing has involved spoofing attempts using multiple different types of material and spoofing methods. Till now only three OEMs have been able to pass this test. NEXT’s partner ACPL has now passed all the relevant tests. Consequently, NEXT’s India shipments will resume, and shipments are as communicated earlier expected to be normalized during Q1 and Q2 2025.

Ulf Ritsvall, Chief Executive Officer at NEXT, commented:
“I am very pleased to receive this confirmation from our partner ACPL. Our team is eager to resume business as usual in India. Once again, I want to emphasize that the security incident leading to additional tests and the temporary pause in the use of L1 sensors relates to a competing technology—one that does not apply to our Active Thermal® technology. As expected, NEXT’s FAP 20 sensor has delivered outstanding results in the tests. I strongly believe that UIDAI’s decision to strengthen the entry barriers to Aadhaar will ultimately benefit NEXT in the long run. Our NEXT Active Thermal® sensor technology already surpassed competing solutions, particularly in detecting liveness in fingerprints. As fewer players meet the stringent L1 certification requirements, I anticipate that NEXT will further solidify its market position and expand its share in India.”

NEXT Biometrics Q1 Update

NEXT Biometrics, reports NOK 7 million in booked revenue in Q1 2025 far below forecast. The shortfall is due to multiple reasons. The most important is the temporary stop in the Aadhaar program in India, as previously communicated.

NEXT and a few other competitors were re-certified as expected, but approval of NEXT sensors was delayed until early March. Even though this situation is creating clear long-term advantages for NEXT, with improved market share due to fewer competitors, normal business did not resume before the end of the quarter. This affected not only our Indian customers but also some of our customers based in China who target the Indian market with their end products.
…

Vis børsmeldingen

In addition to the above, NEXT has withheld several deliveries in Q1 to some customers to strengthen the commercial terms. There is every reason to believe this is a long-term viable strategy.

NEXT has a robust long-term sales pipeline exceeding NOK 400 million of which NOK 69 million are planned deliveries in Q2/Q3 combined, providing solid visibility into the two upcoming quarters with gross margins above 50%. Several high-potential deals are in advanced stages and expected to close in the near term.

The company will publish its annual report today, further detailing and explaining the company’s outlook. NEXT will publish the Q1 report on May 14th.

Er det ingen aktive her som har Next-aksjer. Veldig stille i tråden. Hva er det som holder kursen tilabake på en slik grønn dag? Ingenting, eller alt?

riskypick · april 23, 2025, 1:29pm

Jeg har Next. Investorer er møkk lei snikk snakk. De skulle levert mye bedre i q4 og q1,enn hva fasit ble. Det hausseevntet med «we will rock MWC i 2027» var perfekt salgssignal. Det er hele tiden unnskyldninger. Og fremtiden skal bli så bra. Det er bare Elon Musk som har fanskare stor nok til at det funker.
De tåler ikke mye mer fusk i maskineriet før ny emi må til.
