At this point, I would like to turn the call over to Fredrik, who will review the financial results for the first quarter. Fredrik, please go ahead.

Thank you, Erland. You can find our first quarter 2022 earnings release and thank you with the details of financial performance in the first quarter of 2022, available to download from the investor section on our website, Nino.com. In the interest of time, I will only summarize the key points here. Our total revenue through the first quarter of 2022 reached 1.3 million. That is a decrease of 21% compared to the same period in 2021. License revenues for the first quarter of 2022 was 1.1 million compared to 1.3 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease is primarily the result of component shortages within the print and automotive markets related to the COVID-19 pandemic, which in turn impacted our license revenues for the first quarter of 2022. Product revenues for the first quarter of 2022 was 147,000, an increase of 24,000 compared to the previous quarter. In the first half of 2021, we saw an increase in the product sales. In the second half of 2021, and continuing into the first quarter of 2022, product sales were negatively impacted due to COVID-19 lockdowns in Asia. Our elevator and CHOSC customers in Asia have been first adopters of our competitive touch technology, and we expect that most of our initial key incentives are related to retrofit solutions, and are more limited. New customer equipment launches can take six to 18 months, or even longer, before a customer is ready to begin mass production.

Our gross margin.

products were 65% for the first quarter of 2022, which is an increase of 41% each point compared to the same period last year. If you look at the cross-profit and cross-margin, only the two events, and adjust to the one time effects, you can see a positive trend for the cross-margin with 62% in the first quarter of 2022. Long-term, As volumes continue to increase, we will probably see a pressure on the margin. At short and medium term, we are confident that our margins in the product statement will be around 40%. Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2022 decreased to 20% compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease is primarily due to lower professional fees and lower depreciation and taxation. We continue to invest in marketing and product development and hire new content team members. These investments are strategic and the extension of medium and long-term. These investments are following line with what we communicated regarding how we intend to use the next proceeds of the registered direct offering we did in October 2021. Summarizing the results of the first quarter of 2022, net loss attributed to Newmark Inc. was 1.4 million compared to 1.6 million for the same period in 2021. Net cash used in operating activities during the first quarter of 2022 was 2.3 million. Compared to the previous quarter, net cash from operating activities has decreased to 16%. In the first quarter of 2022, we purchased components of 1.1 billion to secure future production of our TSS.

I will now hand the word back to Uwe.

Thank you, Fredrik. And at this point, I would like to go into a strategy and business update.

Our vision is to transform the way humans interact with machines, and we strive for this by offering innovative touch, contactless touch, gesture sensing, and scene analysis solutions. Our business model rests on two pillars, technology licensing and product sales. We combine this with sales of non-recurring engineering services. Our licensing offers are for our technology platforms, C-force and multi-sensing and our product offers currently are touch center modules or TSM as we also call them short. The new strategy we launched in 2020 is 100% focused on business to business and on revitalizing and growing your licensing business in parallel to growing our products business.

In our product business,

We mainly target customers in the elevator and interacting kiosk segments. We also see potential and are working with some customers in the industrial automation, digital signage, and medical equipment segments. Our licensing business has historically been focused around e-reader, printer, and automotive customers. And currently, the main license revenues from legacy customers comes from Think the manufacturers and automotive tier ones. Going forward, we see the largest potential to grow in the automotive segment, but we also believe it can grow significantly in the military and avionics and the industrial automation segments. And potential in retail segments is also apparent with our multi-sensing software, as I will describe in more detail later. eFORCE is a technology platform that comprises IP-related optics, electronics, software, and algorithms for advanced IR-based touch, gesture sensing, and optic detection features. The eFORCE platform is well proven. We have sold over 85 million eFORCE licenses to customers worldwide in the last 10 years. And we continue to sell every month a number of licenses to existing customers. And the current customer base includes some of the world's largest printer manufacturers and automotive K1 suppliers. T-Force also underpins our products, the TSM's, which are ideal for contactless touch applications, as I'll describe later. AutoSensing is a scalable AI platform that can be used to create advanced scene analysis applications. driving in-cabin monitoring features in vehicles, and retail analytics features. We offer bespoke customer applications tailored for each customer's specific needs, and thanks to the flexibility of the multi-sensing software platform and the efficiency of the underlying machine learning algorithms, the applications require very different footprints and work well even with low-res cameras, and hence offering a lot of customer value. It gives some insights into our ongoing business development work to secure new development projects that can help us grow our licensing business in the future. I'm sharing this snapshot of our business development portfolio directed towards licensing customers. As you can see, we have several ongoing engagements with automotive OEMs and tier 1s, as well as with several avionics companies. actually one major printer manufacturer as well. Automotive DMS. DMS stands for Driver Monitoring System. This opportunity is obviously related to our multi-sensing platform. The others that we show here and that we are working on are related to the C-PORS platform. This group is concerning applications of seaports to detect foreign objects obstructing the projector in head-up display units which is an area that is drawing a lot of attention in automotive these days and we are working with several tier ones and we have come quite far with a couple of them in development of prototypes and proving the concept this is super interesting new application area for our technology. With avionics companies, we talk about rugged touch and touching demanding aircraft applications. With typically professional pilots or professional other people in the cockpit or in the passenger space of the aircraft. And of course, printed touch is more like, for us, a straightforward touch application. similar to what we have done for HP and other printer companies for more than 10 years. It should be noted here that the sales and development cycles are fairly long, and we indicate here what we can expect. If we are nominated to any of these automotive projects that we indicate here, we can expect an application development for two, three years to come. And only after this, new royalty revenues will start to come from these customers. And this has, of course, to do with the long development cycles in automotive for new models or new platforms. Here we are no different than any other Tier 1 or Tier 2 supplier working in the automotive space. And the lead times for new applications and new systems in avionics and also military as many of you realize and know they can be even longer than an automotive but the breadth and the width of this portfolio anyway make us very optimistic about the future of our licensing business and that it can grow and i want to underline that during the development phase even in the prototyping phase We can earn actually significant NRE revenues, non-recurring engineering. We also have opportunities to sell prototypes during that period that can bring additional revenues to us.

Moving on to our product business. Currently, we offer commercial off-the-shelf touch sensor modules, ESMs.

based on the reflective variants of our C-Force technology. We manufacture these TSM at our subsidiary ProNode Technologies in Kungsbacka on the west coast of Sweden. And offer them in 11 different lengths from 101 millimeters to 374 millimeters and two main variants distinguish by the way, the direction that the light is emitted and received from the sensor unit at zero or 90 degrees. The TSM's are ideal for contactless touch applications and can be used in two main configurations to create such features. Either in what we call the parallel plane configuration where our TSM's are used to protect an invisible interaction area or curtain above or in front of the display, keypad or other surface. The other main variant is to use our PSNs to edit the holographic display technology where our PSNs then should be positioned and aligned with the interacting area from our sensor overlapping the projected image in free air. And we try to illustrate that here. If you have very good sight, you can see in the right picture below that tinted glass is an illustration of our sensor module sitting below and pointing up so that when the user extends his finger into that projected image, he can actually interact with it. And it's very futuristic and it creates a lot of attention whenever we or our partners show that type of solution. As we have described in earlier earnings calls, there are numerous examples of applications where contactless touch is the way to go and has a big potential to offer new and extended customer value. For instance, different types of vending machines, coffee machines, self-service kiosks at quick service restaurants or at airports, self-checkout, point-of-sale terminals in supermarkets, for elevators, for other user terminals and medical kiosks and medical equipment where for different reasons the users do not want to touch the display or the buttons and want to experience a new way of interacting with the machines contactless touch is possible with RTSMs for all these types of applications and why then

even consider contactless touch and why is it important? The first argument we give is that it's contactless or touchless, as some also call it.

You don't have to touch the display or the keypad or buttons that you are interacting with. And for a machine, an elevator or a kiosk sitting in a public space where there are many users using the same machine, This can be a significant risk for transmission of different pathogens or can give a unpleasant user experience. Here is where contactless touch adds value to the customers. You can interact with the machine without touching and avoid getting whatever bacteria or viruses on your hands. Still, you preserve a familiar touch interface or in elevators. You extend your fingers normally today to press the button. You will use our technology in the same way, but before the finger reaches the button, we will highlight the button. So it's very automatic. It's very convenient. In other applications, say in medical or in rugged industrial environments, users may have gloves on their hands and then other touch technology like capacitive touch will not work and here we have a solution that works also with gloves or if the user wants to interact with a pen or a key or the corner of his cell phone for instance and with our PSMs that are commercial off-the-shelf products you can buy them online or directly from us or from some of our partners we offer free You use a smart SDK that allows you to develop your own software applications, and they fit very well for both new installs and retrofit solutions. As described in earlier earnings calls, we use a hybrid go-to-market strategy where we combine direct sales and indirect sales via partners. We also have significant sales through our online distributors, mainly DigiKey, which is an American company, but they cover more or less the whole world. We work with another distributor in China called Serial, and in Japan we work with a company called Mixi Electronics, all sizable and well-known online distributors. We work with partners to penetrate markets that are otherwise difficult for us to reach for instance in Asia it has become a success story for us with our value and degree sellers and other partners in Japan Korea and also China and other parts of Asia the same in Europe and we are also working to create similar partnerships with companies in North America and This way of describing the markets like a pyramid, we feel that we have more and more substance for this argumentation that both the elevator market and the kiosk market can be described this way. For instance, as we have discussed in earnings calls during 2020 and 2021, the elevator market is dominated on the top by some 10 major OEMs that often also are multinational companies and they totally dominate the new equipment market. Below them, there is a segment of big-size companies that can work regionally or nationally. And below them, there could be many, many smaller firms in the hundreds or thousands. And the pattern goes also for interactive kiosks, but there the fragmentation is much more apparent and visible. And first of all, interactive kiosks spans a number of sub-segments, such as vending machines, self-service kiosks, ATMs, and so on. And in each of these, and actually in each market, there is a plentiful of manufacturers offering this type of product. But overall, also the kiosk market can be described using this pyramid. And of course, we are striving to move upwards here to reach the big OEM players, which have the potential to bring high order volumes for us per order and per year.

And this has to do also with the sales cycle that is

actually a fact in our business, in our market. And the typical sales cycle starts with a retrofit opportunity if you look at one segment and one market. This is how we and our partners introduced the concept of contactless touch and our TSM solutions. We work then a lot with partners and they develop different solutions and offer them to the market. And our target customers are hence integrators and tech companies, but also to some extent OEMs targeting to do their own retrofit solutions. And in many cases, the OEMs are interested in this for different reasons. It's about brand reputation, quality, but also cash flow and profits that they want to have that business for themselves and not allow third parties to

make money on their products. In the second phase, what we are seeing, and we are encouraged by this more and more, once they have achieved a certain awareness in the market, a certain demand, the kiosk and elevator OEMs get more and more interested.

They may want to do retrofits, or they may only want to look at new equipment solutions. For us, then, there's a shift, and of course, you're going to work directly with OEMs, and they typically want to work directly with us. Sales cycles are a little bit longer, but on the other hand, the potential is bigger per customer per order. The final step in this sales cycle here is that we are designing from the beginning. Here, I want to make the reference to HP, Lexmark, and other of our printer customers where we are featured with our touch technology in more or less every model that they release and have been so for several years now. And this is also a development that we are working to achieve and striving for in the TSM business. That may include that on the way to that third stage also change business model from product sales to licensing. But we see that one of our strengths that we have two business models that are complementing each other and we can serve customers that want to buy low and medium high volumes and at the second point customers may likely want to shift to licensing when the volumes grow and then we can continue to work with them and support them in an effective way so basically in the sales cycle we want to penetrate it's

upside down pyramid top down and this happens to be the same as we penetrate the market bottom up.

So retrofit typically is what we are looking for with small and medium-sized companies and also what our partners are very much hard work in doing and our own direct sales is directed towards mediums and large companies looking for new installs and retrofit solutions. So these two pictures describe the dynamics and the way we are working and the way the elevator and kiosk market work. The last two years, we have been expanding and developing our partner network. I will mention our distributors. We also have a number of value-added resellers. Highline in Germany and MZ Technology in France, Holo Industries in the U.S., for instance, but most prominent is several or several partners that we have in Japan, Korea, China, and other parts of Asia that are very professional, very strong, and very active in helping us penetrate these different markets and the different segments. In North America, we have built up last year our own network of manufacturers' reps, and they help us reach customers in North America us and canada and they represent near node in front of these customers and as you know a north american u.s especially is a big ict market and we see actually very large volume potential in the future from american and canadian customers looking at the progress we have been making in the elevator segment we have actually Secured businesses with a number of elevator control panel companies. Finetec in Korea, E-Speed, IFR, HKPC, China, Enset Technologies Canada, Bluehost UK, and so on. Some of these companies are fairly large and well-known, and they work both in the aftermarket and versus OEM areas. elevator companies, such as Otis, TKE, Schindler, and so on. One company that has multiple flavors is MAD, another one is DOS, and the third one is Fintech. They all work directly to real estate owners and elevator maintenance firms and upgrade firms, but they also offer and sell their solutions and products to the major elevator companies. We are working today with three elevator OEMs. And as the next picture shows, we also today are quite deeply involved in a number of other elevator OEMs in the world. We cannot disclose the names of these. We have very strict NDAs and also they are sort of secretive towards us and our partners in their plans and their rollout strategies. We are very much encouraged by this and I want to refer back here to the same cycle description and this is proof that we are entering now in a serious way the second phase where we discuss directly with OEMs and develop new equipment solutions for elevators.

With kiosks, the story is similar, we have actually

Secured businesses with a number of kiosk manufacturers, and they offer typically both retrofit solutions and new equipment solutions. Many of these cases, we can today not disclose the names of these companies, but they range from some of the very largest interactive kiosk companies in the world to medium-sized, and in one case, also a small player, a small national player, but still very, very interesting. And together, it shows that the interactive kiosk market is there and that we have started to secure a beachhead that we are now trying to expand from and grow our business. And this snapshot of our business development pipeline for interactive kiosk solutions show actually just the tip of the iceberg. We have actually many, many more opportunities that we are working on. Here are some of the most... significant ones. Most of these opportunities and customers, they can be found in Japan, Korea, China, and other parts of Asia, so APAC. But we also have some very interesting engagement in Europe and North America. And in Europe, if I go top down in this picture, We worked with one company doing a kiosk for transportation use, say, ticketing machines for train stations and similar. And another customer doing vending machines. They happen to do drink vending machines. And both these opportunities are significant and quite sizable. So we are super excited about this. And this, again, just shows attraction on all the opportunities that we and our partners are working on in APAC and EMEA in North America. It also shows a little bit about the expected duration of a typical sales and development project and when we can expect that the customers will launch products. So this is not immediate. And typically what we are experiencing is that the bigger the companies get, the slower they are. So they are, in some of these cases, very, very large corporations that we are working with, and they take time to make decisions, to develop products, and then to devise a marketing strategy to launch the products and industrialize and actually then launching it. Many of these projects, and in the last earnings call, I was showing an example of a project with 7-Eleven Japan, that was typical. We had sort of a consortium of seven different companies working together to create that solution that 7-Eleven Japan bought and installed in some of their stores in Tokyo and other parts of Japan. So also that type of complexity of the supply chain plays a role here in actually slowing us down a little bit. But overall, we are encouraged by the increased interest and the growing maturity of several of these development projects and engagements. And we believe that this is proof that we are on the right track and that we can grow our business in the kiosk segment significantly in the years to come.

And that basically brings me to an end of our formal presentation. I was next going to share some concluding remarks. So let's do that briefly before going to Q&A with our analysts.

First point, we see an increasing interest in our PFMs and our solutions for contactless touch. We have shown snapshots of our business development pipelines for both elevators and kiosks, and we have also shown a little bit of our existing customer base. We have multiple customers and multiple new customer engagements in several countries around the world. Japan is leading the way with Korea and Greater China following suit. but also we have several opportunities and new customers in North America and Europe that also show great potential. We're also happy to see a growing interest in our seaports and multi-sensor technologies from automotive customers and also avionics customers. And I want to highlight here that we have started a development project with European OEM for driver monitoring, and also that we are engaged with several automotive tier ones regarding head-up display object detection, which we are addressing with our C-Force platform. We have mentioned in our report that COVID-19 continues to bring challenges to our sales and business development. First of all, we have lockdowns and travel restrictions in, for instance, China. Many of you have followed this and know that in China they are experiencing now a very tough situation with outbreaks of the Omicron variant of the COVID virus. And everything is basically shut down in cities like Shanghai and neighboring cities. But also in Taiwan, they have very, very strict lockdowns. whereas Japan and Korea now are starting to open up, thankfully. So it's changing, but COVID-19 is still here and around and affecting us all. We are not directly affected by semiconductor shortages, but our customers are often affected by this. And... have problems sourcing enough components to scale after production or launch new products. Also, we feel that our customers in some cases are a little bit cautious due to the geopolitical situation and the general economic uncertainties regarding effects of the war in Ukraine and similar, increasing interest rates, oil and gas prices going up and so on. So that's indirectly affecting us and our customers. Overall, we believe we are well positioned and well financed to expand our products business and also to revitalize and grow our energy and licensing business. And we are hard at work at this every day in the company. And we are very much encouraged by the traction we have in our business development work in Japan, in Korea, and other parts of Asia. several opportunities with automotive OEMs and tier one manufacturers, plus some additional opportunities I mentioned in this call. So we strongly believe that we are on the right track and that we will grow our top line significantly in the years to come.

Thank you. This brings us to the end of our formal presentation today.

And now we'd like to open up the call for Q&A.

Thank you. If you would like to ask a question, please press star 1 on your telephone keypad. You may remove yourself from the queue at any time by pressing the pound key. Again, that is star 1 if you would like to ask a question. We will pause for a moment to allow questions to queue. Thank you. Our first question will come from Jasper Von Kark.

Hi, guys, and thanks for taking my question. So let's start with products. So for products, you have three major ongoing projects that we view as the main revenue drivers for 2022. So 7-Eleven, the elevator OEM, and the Japanese sushi chain. Could you elaborate on the progress of these?

um yeah first of all i'm not sure i fully agree that these three products are the main revenue drivers this year but they are indeed significant wins for us and we are very happy with them we have with starting with that elevator company we made an announcement in the fourth quarter i believe it was about uh a new elevator OEM deciding to use our TSM's and our contactless sub-solutions in the new elevators they have already developed solutions they have started in a smaller scale to launch it in the market they are slowly also opening up the curtains and marketing this publicly and showing commercials and Our local people in that market have shared pictures of that. And I'm sure they will continue that rollout. And I have no information suggesting that they have second thoughts. So the rollout is continuing. It's looking good. Also, the feedback we have from 7-Eleven Japan is very, very positive. They clearly have the ambition to roll this out in a bigger scale across their stores in Japan. Personally, today I'm missing like day fresh updates regarding this, the pace of that rollout, but we have no information suggesting that they're backing away. Regarding the sushi chain, one of Japan's major sushi chains have already installed in all their self-service kiosks and all restaurants across Japan, the contactless touch interface. so that you can reserve a table and you can also pre-order food outside of the main restaurant area using the self-service kiosks. They are sitting there in public and being used every day. We are working with other quick-service restaurant chains in Japan and also in other countries, and we hope that this will be like a snowball effect when other chains see what this first chain are doing and how well the solutions work.

All right, thanks for the cover.

So in light of all the uncertainty factors playing an important role at the moment, what's your view on a potential ramp up of revenues during 2020?

It's apparent that indirectly we are under pressure due to COVID pandemic lockdowns and also to some extent the strain of supply chains for semiconductors. We have seen this from some of our licensing customers in automotive and we are also seeing this from some of our product customers. and it's like indirect effect so it's a little bit slowing us down and probably taking a little bit of the edge out of our growth this year but overall it's it's not a significant problem or risk it's a little bit slowing us down that's our feeling overall the trend is positive and Our own suppliers, remember, our licensing customers buy special circuits, ASICs from Texas Instruments, which they use to realize the touch features that they are using in their printers and automotive and similar. TI is also a little bit under pressure, but they have confirmed to us that the situation is under control. All of our customers will get all of the ASICs they need for their production. So it's a tough situation for many, but we and our partners, we are actively working to mitigate any problems and risks that this causes.

Okay, good.

And so my last question. Since the Q4 report, you haven't announced any major customer deals. You talked a little bit about it, but how do you experience the underlying customer activity and the interest?

We are very positive still. Of course, we are also working hard to realize new business wins with customers around the world. We have actually a very broad and deep pipeline and we have shared some insights into that pipeline today. We expect during this year, actually, that we will get positive feedback from several of these customers that we have indicated here and projects we have indicated here during this call from automotive OEMs, tier ones, and also elevator and kiosk companies. So we are actually... very encouraged by that development still, although we also would like to see a faster pickup of the sales revenues, definitely, and of the sales volumes.

Thank you. Our next question will come from Walter Lindhagen with Pareto.

Hi, and thanks for taking my questions. My first question is regarding your input costs. So a hot topic right now among manufacturing companies is increased input costs. And I wonder how much you've been affected and what's your ability to raise prices? Are you able to do that instantly when you experience increased costs or will there be a lag there?

So for our own production of TSM's in chrono technology we actually have from last year secured significant component stock and also in the cases where we have more recently bought additional components we didn't experience any major cost increases. For that reason, our own situation is sort of stable. Nevertheless, we have reviewed and updated our pricing strategy and also improved on our margins in this product business over the last 18 months. Hence, the good margins that Fredrik talked about in his presentation earlier during the call. In other cases, we are fully aware that raw materials and components can drive costs up. And this is a little bit perhaps slowing down some of our kiosk and elevator customers. But it's not stopping them completely. And I cannot comment on and I don't know about the magnitude of their challenges with the cost increases and their possibilities to increase prices of their products. It's like an indirect effect or a risk for us, not really a direct issue for minimal or promo technologies.

All right, thank you.

And then just another question related to the gross margin there, as you mentioned, you showed on one slide that you have had a constantly improved gross margin for I mean, quarter over quarter for more than a year. Could you just remind us a little bit what has been driving this development?

Yeah, I will let Fredrik answer this.

Yeah, so during the years, we have looked into the cost that we have had, and we have also increased the price list. So we have, as you can see in the presentation, we have a table showing you the one-time effects, and the one-time effects obviously drove the cost more than down. And now we can see a more stable and cross-margin and it's developing well.

So it means that in the report there are further details included that explains the one-time effects and some of them were taken already before and not in this quarter but in the fourth quarter last year and even earlier than that. Going forward now we think that we have actually cleaned up the books and taken out a lot of these on-time effects, and we will see like a more stable situation going forward.

All right. Sounds good. Thanks. That was all for me.

Thank you. This concludes today's Q&A. I will now turn the call back over to our presenters for any additional or closing remarks.

Well, we just want to thank you for taking the time to join in this call, and we wish you a good day.

Thank you very much.

Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. This concludes today's event. You may now disconnect.
