STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN, May 11, 2023 — Neonode Inc. (NASDAQ: NEON) today reported financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
FINANCIAL SUMMARY FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2023:
● | Revenue of $1.3 million, a decrease of 4.9% compared to the same period in the prior year. |
● | Operating expenses of $2.8 million, an increase of 4.9% compared to the same period in the prior year. |
● | Net loss of $1.4 million, or $0.09 per share, compared to $1.4 million, or $0.10 per share, for the same period in the prior year. |

THE CEO’S COMMENTS
“Our licensing revenues during Q1 were stable indicating that the global supply chain challenges related to semiconductor supply shortages that have hampered our printer and automotive customers’ production and sales for the last two years are beginning to improve and that demand for our customers’ products is still strong”, said Dr. Urban Forssell, Neonode’s CEO.
“Our product sales in Q1 were below expectations with many markets starting the year very slowly. On a positive note, we are seeing strong interest for our solutions in China where businesses and markets have begun to rebound following the lifting of COVID-related shutdowns. We are working together with different partners to try to capitalize on this and plan to increase our marketing efforts in China going forward, which we hope will start to bear fruit later this year and the next,” continued Dr. Forssell.
“While continuously monitoring our performance and adjusting our strategies and tactics, we continue to execute on our overall business strategy to establish beachheads in key segments from which we later can expand to further grow our business. As part of this strategy, we are using our strong cash position to intensify our marketing work – both online and through participation in tradeshows and other types of events – and are recruiting experienced core competence to strengthen our sales and engineering teams, which is key for accelerating growth,” concluded Dr. Forssell.
FINANCIAL OVERVIEW FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2023
Net revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 were $1.3 million, a 4.9% decrease compared to the same period in 2022. For the 2023 period, license revenues were $1.1 million, an increase of 4.0% compared to the 2022 period. The increase is primarily the result of an increase in volume as the global supply chain challenges related to semiconductor supply shortages that hampered our printer and automotive customers’ production and sales for the last two years are beginning to improve.
Revenues from product sales were $0.1 million, a 30.6% decrease compared to the same period in 2022. The first quarter is typically slow due to the high number of holidays, but the decrease is also due to high inventory levels at some key customers after purchases during the fourth quarter 2022.
Gross margin related to products was 53.9% for the first quarter of 2023 compared to 65.3% in the same period in 2022. The gross margin for products varies with the product mix.
Our operating expenses increased by 4.9% for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to higher professional fees.
Net loss attributable to Neonode for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $1.4 million, or $0.09 per share, compared to a net loss of $1.4 million, or $0.10 per share, for the same period in 2022. Cash used by operations was $1.7 million in the first quarter of 2023 compared to $2.3 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease is primarily the result of less component purchases offset by increased accounts receivable and unbilled revenues due to the timing of customer payments.
Cash and accounts receivable totaled $22.9 million and working capital was $25.6 million as of March 31, 2023 compared to $16.3 million and $19.1 million as of December 31, 2022, respectively.

Non - GAAP Financial Measures In addition to presenting our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), we use adjusted gross margin to measure our financial performance. We define adjusted gross margin as gross margin excluding AirBar sales revenues and costs and adjusting for costs and lost revenues caused by a quality issue and one - time write - down of inventory. We believe adjusted gross margin is a meaningful measure because it reflects the performance of our TSM business, which is our current focus. Non - GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Our use of adjusted gross margin, a non - GAAP financial measure, has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some, but not all, items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. You should not consider adjusted gross margin in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Our definition of non - GAAP adjusted gross margin may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility. 2023 - 05 - 10 23 © Neonode 2001 - 2023 · www.neonode.com · Nasdaq (NEON) The following tables presents a reconciliation of adjusted gross margin to gross margin, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. kUSD Q1 - 20 Q2 - 20 Q3 - 20 Q4 - 20 Q1 - 21 Q2 - 21 Q3 - 21 Q4 - 21 Q1 - 22 Q2 - 22 Q3 - 22 Q4 - 22 Q1 - 23 Revenue Products 98 66 284 502 355 346 136 118 147 210 155 483 102 Cost of Sales Products - 36 - 72 - 198 - 496 - 270 - 212 - 98 - 342 - 51 - 93 - 80 - 552 - 47 Gross Profit Products 62 - 6 86 6 85 134 38 - 224 96 117 75 - 69 55 Lost revenues TSM quality issue - - - - - - 14 12 92 - - - - - Cost of sales TSM quality issue - - - - - 4 27 - 61 - - - - - Inventory write - down TSM quality issue - - - - - - - 154 - - - 294 - Revenue AirBar 1 - 0 - 60 - 21 - 43 - - - - 13 - - - - 4 Cost of Sales AirBar - 23 27 86 123 39 - 4 - 7 149 - - - - - Adjusted Gross Profit Products 40 21 112 109 81 120 70 110 83 117 75 225 51 Gross Margin Products 63% - 9% 30% 1% 24% 39% 28% - 190% 65% 56% 48% - 14% 54% Adjusted Gross Margin Products 40% 32% 50% 23% 26% 36% 47% 52% 62% 56% 48% 47% 52%
