When I return for point four, I will discuss current status and our plans going forward. I will also today give some comments about the patent litigations versus Apple and Samsung, and we finish off with some concluding remarks. With this, as an outline for today's presentation, let's just go right into it. For new followers and listeners to this presentation, I want to just give a brief update on our business strategy. This is a combination of technology licensing and product sales. We work today in two business areas, one where the focus is technology licensing. Looking at our current customers, they include printer manufacturers and automotive Tier 1 suppliers, and also some other customers. We work here with two technology platforms. We call them zForce and MultiSensing. I will give examples of applications in the next slide. Whereas on the right side, we illustrate our products business, where we target customers in the elevator and interactive kiosk segments with our touch sensor module products. Key application areas and what we are working on in our day-to-day operations. In the licensing business, it's a lot of focus head-up display obstruction detection and also interior controls. This is something we base on our zForce platform, and we use our MultiSensing platform to work on driver and in-cabin monitoring solutions and features. In our products business, we mainly work on contactless touch, either touchless touch on displays and other surfaces and keypads, keyboards, and buttons, or holographic touch. With our touch sensor modules, you can make holographic display images interactive, which is quite futuristic and cool, we think. We also work on rugged touch and gesture sensing with the TSM products. Recently, we updated our website quite fundamentally, and now what you will see there is different illustrations and descriptions that underline and reflect our strategy. Please visit neonode.com and check out the nice contents that our marketing team has added to the website recently. What you will see is that we do a lot of sector-based marketing, and this is to support our growth strategy. Especially if you look here to the left, in the first step, we have a very, very strong focus today in several of our businesses to establish beachheads in important segments and markets. Everything we do in marketing and sales and also product development is aimed at supporting this strategy. We also work with proof of concepts and different types of demo projects to also further show and demonstrate the value of our technology. This is very, very important, and we follow this beachhead strategy to break through in key segments so that we later can focus on scaling up. In some of the segments we are active, we feel that we already have achieved the breakthrough and we have established beachheads. One example is elevators and also certain subsegments of the interactive kiosk market. In others, we admittedly still are working really to establish the beachheads. This is the clear strategy that we have been following for some time. We have refined it, and we believe that this is really now the right way forward for us. More regarding marketing, during the second half of last year, especially during the fourth quarter, we are glad that we could again start to travel and join physical live events. You will see here some examples from automotive events in Detroit, in Munich, and also a virtual event in China that we joined during November. They all head-up display obstruction detection, interior controls, and driver and in-cabin monitoring. We also attended Japan Build, which is focused on PropTech, and this is different aspects of interactive kiosk applications that we showed here together with partners. Very, very interesting and successful event for us with huge attention to our different offerings and our partners' products. In line with this, we were, as late as last week, part of RetailTech in Tokyo, Japan, also with great attendance and a lot of appreciation from people visiting our booth and taking part of our different solutions and our partners' different products on display. This is where we are at today and a little bit of a short summary and overview of our business strategies and what we do in terms of marketing and sales. I will come back in a short while, but now I want to give the word to Fredrik Nihlén, our CFO. Thank you, Urban. You can find our 10-K and earnings release if you visit our investor section on our webpage, neonode.com. I will, in this presentation, just summarize the key highlights. I will also say a few words on financing. Total revenues for 2022 was $5.7 million. That is a decrease of 3% compared to 2021. We saw a slight decrease in license revenues in 2022 compared to 2021, and this is due to component shortages within the automotive and printer industries, which affect our customers and hence affecting our license revenues. However, we saw a recovery in the second half of 2022 in license revenues. For products revenues, we reached $995,000 in 2022. That is an increase of 4% compared to 2021. Also here, we saw a recovery in Q4 on product revenues. However, in 2022, we were still affected by lockdowns in Asia, and we are also affected by long development and large cycles at our customers. Gross margin for 2022 was 22%. That includes a one-time effect of write-down of obsolete stock in Q4. Adjusting for that, we would have a gross margin of 51%, which we think is a good level. Operating expenses was $10.2 million for 2022. That is a decrease of 15% compared to 2021. Main reason is that we have cost control, but we are also helped by the weak Swedish currency. As I stated in the last earnings call, the majority of our costs are in Swedish krona. Summarizing 2022 in a P&L, we had a net loss of $4.9 million compared to $6.5 million in 2021. As I discussed in previous slides, less operating expenses, but keeping the revenue at approximately the same level as 2021. Net cash burn in operating activities for 2022 was $6.8 million. That is a decrease of 11% compared to last year. We had a cash balance and accounts receivable balance of $16.3 million as of 31st of December 2022. That is a decrease of $2.4 million for the year. I will now just say a few words on financing. During October to January, October 2022 to January 2023, we selectively used our ATM facility, and we raised net proceeds of $12.6 million to an average price per share of $7.24. The $4.7 million we raised in Q4 are a part of the balance that I've talked about in previous slides, but we increased also the balance by adding additional $7.9 million of net proceeds in January 2023. We think that the improved cash position will give financial stability to execute on our strategy. To give some more color to this, I will give the word back to Urban. In the rest of the presentation, I want to spend some time here to discuss current status and the plan going forward. To tie in what Fredrik said, our sales revenues were more or less on par with those of 2021. I must say that it's not bad, but we are not satisfied, and we are working hard to improve that and grow the business. We are very optimistic about our ability to really turn this around and create some significant growth. We also have, during the last year, created strong interest in several of our solutions that we offer, and we have several very promising opportunities in our sales funnel currently that we are working to capitalize on. Plan going forward, we believe we have a good strategy and also strong finances that together put us in a good position to significantly grow our business this year and the coming years. We are adding resources to our global sales team to support growth in key sectors and markets. We are also expanding our network of distributors, value-added resellers, and other partners for a broader reach and a quicker market penetration. Regarding marketing, we continue to build on our brand and marketing platform to drive sales. We will increase the focus on physical demos, POC projects, and also physical events quite significantly. Of course, this draws some resource, but again, given our strong cash position, we want to use this now to leverage the technology that we have developed and the IP that we have in the company. We will also continue to work a lot with digital marketing campaigns. The key point, as shown previously in this presentation, is to show the value of our technology. We believe we have a very, very good technology base and an IP base in the company. A key issue for us is to show the value and demonstrate the capabilities of the technology and of our team, how we can support customers and add value. Moving over to engineering, we continue to invest in product development to improve the added customer value we can bring with our products and solutions and also to broaden our offering. We will share more details on this in later earnings calls this spring and after the summer. To support these efforts, we are not only investing internally with our own staff, but we also are engaging with some external engineering firms and other partners to shorten our time to market and increase our general development and manufacturing bandwidth. All aiming upwards and forwards. Just to repeat and illustrate what we are working on in practice, MultiSensing licensing solution, the main focus and basically the only focus is to work on driver and in-cabin monitoring for different automotive OEM and Tier One customers, where we are encouraged. Indeed, we are involved in some detailed discussions currently with a couple of such customers that we hope to capitalize on in the near future. Very, very promising and interesting. Another area which draws a lot of attention in our company and also from several different head-up display obstruction detection. We have here a very cost-effective and good, robust solution to detect foreign head-up display projectors that may obstruct the image and cause a safety hazard. This is not acceptable neither by legislators nor by vehicle manufacturers. Therefore, we need for this type of systems in modern vehicles also a technical means of detecting this type of disturbances. We have here a very good ready solution that is drawing a lot of attention from several customers. I mentioned also in the previous slide that we work on interior controls. One example is we work with a French company called EpicNpoc, who are developing and selling rapid prototyping design studio solutions. We are together with them developing and launching different features based on our touch sensor modules and also our other offerings. Just an example of how this cooperation is playing out. We co-exhibited with epicnpoc at CES in Las Vegas in January this year. Very successful, a lot of attention to their solution and also our contribution there was significant. We are very, very glad of this cooperation and think that this is one way for us to reach new customers, mainly in Europe, but also in other regions. We continue to work in our products business with elevator customers, both elevator OEMs and companies developing and selling elevator control panels. In the elevator industry, it is common that the companies work both OEM, meaning selling new equipment, and also in the aftermarket, selling retrofits and upgrades and simply do service maintenance services for the elevators. Interactive kiosks come in many different shapes and forms. This illustration is a particular kiosk developed by Maxell that they launched at the Maxell Aqua Park in Tokyo. It's a very nice example of a holographic interactive information kiosk where visitors to this aquapark can themselves browse and see small video clips and other information shorts for different types of fish and animals in the sea. This is a very nice graphical example. Of course, there are many, many other types of kiosks that we also support with our touch sensor module products. Related business still related to our touch sensor module business is MedTech, where we have actually a long cooperation with a Swiss company called Elix Systems that have developed a solution for medical imaging systems. Here in particular, a quite big program with a leading MedTech OEM that here have equipped an ultrasound system with our touch feature that adds functionality and adds value to their otherwise very, very high performance system. Nurses and doctors doing examinations using the ultrasound device and typically having gels on their fingers and using gloves when they do these studies, they can then zoom and point and click to the screen like you prefer to do for quick handling and ease of use. We add a lot of value both for the manufacturer of these systems who could add touch to their existing system and then to the end users, the nurses and the doctors that have a very, very robust, fast, and accurate touch feature. In fact, we are so much encouraged by this success with this program that we will and have taken steps to increase our focus on MedTech as one of the sectors that we will focus more and more on going forward. Other examples are retail and PropTech, and retail could be anything, point of sales terminals, self checkout terminals, and similar. The PropTech includes everything from elevators. It could be entry systems, alarm systems, and other control panels for buildings. These are three examples of sectors that we will focus on going forward. In MedTech, we see simply several use cases where we have outstanding offerings that bring a lot of value to both the buying customers and the end users in the hospitals and also for patients and visitors to the hospitals. There is a strong overlap with interactive kiosks here, but we also see that there are some particular requirements that we can meet and that we are now working to show different customers. We will also come back in later earnings calls to share some more updates. Drawing closer to the end of this presentation, I promised to give some comments about the ongoing patent litigations versus Apple and Samsung. We have one slide here, and I will basically only comment on the fact regarding our agreement with Aequitas. As many of you know, we have an embedded call option, as we call it, associated with our patent agreement with Aequitas Technologies LLC. Aequitas is an American-based technology licensing company. In 2019, Neonode signed two patent families related to old smartphone technology to Aequitas for monetization. The agreement states that we will get 50% of the net proceeds if Aequitas succeeds in monetizing the patents. What I want to underline here is that net proceeds should be understood as the gross proceeds, less out-of-pocket expenses and legal fees. The agreement with Aequitas is available on SEC's website, and also you can find it through our website. If you look at our 8-K filing from May 2019, you will find the agreement in full and can there read all the terms and conditions. In June 2020, Neonode Smartphone LLC, this is a subsidiary of Aequitas and having no direct link to us other than the first part of the name. They filed two patent infringement lawsuits, one against Apple and one against Samsung. These two litigations are still ongoing. The Apple case has been moved to the Northern District of California, and the Samsung case is still in the Western District of Texas. I want to underline also finally our role in this. Our role in this is to be the owner of the regional patents that we transferred in 2019 to Aequitas. We have no insight into or influence over Aequitas operations. In particular, we are not involved in the lawsuits against Apple and Samsung. The good thing here about the whole arrangement is that we will not bear any costs associated with the ongoing litigations, and we are not exposed to any risks because of them. This is the whole idea behind this arrangement. Neonode's board in 2019 therefore entered into this agreement with Aequitas. Still, we appreciate that many find it very, very interesting to both study and discuss and speculate about this, but we stay with these facts and these descriptions of the actual events that have taken place from 2019 until today. Basically, that is what we can and will communicate around these patent litigations. Thank you very much. This brings me to our final concluding remarks slide. As Fredrik has presented, our sales revenues for 2022 were $5.7 million. Similar results as in 2021. Net loss decreased and was $4.9 million. That is due to mainly very, very tight cost control and also favorable exchange rates. Net cash used in the operation activities was $6.8 million. This is down from $7.7 million in 2021. We continue to see strong interest in our TSM products and our zForce and MultiSensing technology platforms. We will use our strong cash position to drive growth through investments into sales, marketing, and new product development. We look very positive to the rest of this year and also the coming years. We believe strongly that we will be able to grow our business significantly. Thank you very much. Now I invite Jesper up for Q&A. Thank you very much for that. All right. Let's start with the strong product sales of the quarter, which was many times as high as previous quarters. Could you just explain the reasons behind this? Of course, it's, as in many cases, a combination of different effects that worked in our favor. If you look at what we can control, we had some serious efforts and we did a strong push both in Q3 and Q4 to really drive sales. That's good work by our team to really influence many customers to take the step to place orders. We are happy for that. We also got help because the situation, for instance, in China and other Asian countries started to normalize during the second half of last year. I think that helped. Also in Europe, we have some good customers and partners that we were able to get new businesses with. Together, that gave a very positive end to the year for the products business. I would also say that the second half and Q4 was positive in our licensing business and then some new projects that brought in NRE revenues. For non-recurring engineering services, we could invoice several customers during the third and fourth quarter, which also contributed. Good. If we stop at the product sales there, was it more from the retrofit business or was it from new sales? I would say that some of the bigger orders that customers place with us were for new equipment. We also have a sort of a healthy portion of retrofit businesses, but they tend to be smaller. Several orders, but smaller. We have a balance. I don't know from the top of my head the exact balance between retrofit applications and new equipment, but I believe that the majority of the bigger orders, they were indeed from new equipment. Okay. From the new equipment, was it like one or two large ones that make specific orders, or should we anticipate that it was a few contributing? No, there was actually several different customers placing not huge orders because then we would have presented even stronger numbers, but still decent volumes came in from several customers that we were glad for. Good. Regarding the license side and especially the NRE revenue there, could you say what segments are those from? Is it fair to assume it's automotive or? It's a very clear focus from our side in our licensing business has been for a couple of years to focus on customers in the automotive sector. We work both today with OEM customers, meaning vehicle manufacturers directly and with some Tier 1 suppliers. In fact, we have customers in all three main regions: Asia, Europe, and North America. We have contributions there. It's for these two main topics that I stressed here in this presentation and also in previous presentations: driver in cabin monitoring on the one head-up display obstruction detection. That's where we see most activity today and most interest. I mean, there has been a lot of activity on the RFQ side on the driver monitoring side there. Can you say anything about how close you are to being able to present anything there, like the results of RFQs? We think we are very, very close. Of course, it's under NDA and it's sensitive. We think that we have very, very good chances of winning some new businesses here in the near future. We also know and appreciate that there are many competitors, many strong competitors in this field. Still, I can share that we are encouraged by the feedback we get when we talk to different, not least OEM customers that maybe have already chosen a certain other supplier for their first wave, but then for different reasons, they're looking for a better alternative. We have found some interesting prospects that we are now entertaining. Okay, good. Is this for any specific region, would you say? That would be to disclose too much. Okay. Okay. All right. Also head-up display, is that, yeah, what's the status there if you compare it, like the timing of RFQs for that compared to driver monitoring systems? It's driven by a few premium vehicle manufacturers that are betting head-up displays in the future. They are looking to change the cockpit inside the vehicle and having maybe less of the traditional instrument clusters and big displays, but instead having more of the information projected onto the windshield in different types of arrangements. Some will project more in the field of view, some at the bottom of the windshield. If you then remove, as some of these OEMs are planning to remove the traditional instrument cluster to free space for space in the passenger compartment and also design issues, I believe. Third, to save cost, they need this type of feature that we are working with for safety reasons and to fulfill all legislations of General Safety Regulation in the EU and similar regulations in both China and U.S.. All right. Can you say anything about the prospective, like average selling price per vehicle for that kind of solution? In our case, we talk about technology licensing, and we have significant revenues from automotive customers today with our zForce platform. Indeed, this will be another application of zForce. We talk about some dollars per vehicle. That is very, very interesting because often in automotive, the programs run in very, very high volumes. We hope that this will significantly contribute to our future license revenues. Of course, there is a fairly long sales development and launch cycle that we have to work through. Everyone should be aware of this that we are perhaps talking about 2.5-3.5 years until we get additional license revenues from these types of projects. Yeah. Possible revenues around late 2025, 2026, something like that. All right. Good. I mean, you generally speak with quite a high optimism about 2023, like ramping up revenues and so on. Also in our last conference calls, you anticipated that you will use your inventory that you had then for the next 16-24 months. We talked about components inventory. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. How do you see 2023 rolling out sales-wise? In our products business, we certainly think that we can do much better than the previous year, which was indeed quite similar to the year before. We are optimistic and we are confident that we can start to see some steps forward. We have also decided to develop some new product variants to broaden the portfolio because we think that we have established now some good sales channels in different markets that we can use to sell additional products through the same channels, sometimes our direct sales efforts or via partners. We are doing different steps here every week, basically, to try to drive sales, both of the existing products and of new. We have to improve because we have set very ambitious targets for the company. My team and together with the board of Neonode, we work really hard every week to make a difference here and to break out of this, say, single-digit million-dollar type of turnover that we have had the last years. I think this company deserves much more, and the technology is certainly capable of driving much higher sales. This is what we are working on and really fighting to achieve. Good. For license sales, I mean, I guess the typical arrangement is that you would get NRE revenue before you onboard into a new license sales program. Is it fair to assume that we will see the NRE revenue before you ramp up significantly there? Yeah, as we have tried to explain, but I can repeat that. I know that you are well aware of how the automotive industry works. If we are successful with certain RFQs this year, we can expect NRE revenues to ramp up for this and next maybe two years. Only when the underlying product, meaning the new vehicle or the new platform, goes into mass production, this is when we start to get royalties from the licensing. That NRE part can be significant because it's very time-consuming and draws a lot of effort from both the vehicle manufacturing and all the suppliers to develop, test, validate, and launch a new vehicle platform. Of course, we are there to help. Our ambition is always to have at least break even during that development phase for the efforts we do to support both the tier one supplier and the vehicle manufacturer to realize whatever ideas they have using our platforms. Sounds good. I mean, now regarding licensing sales, you talk basically only about the automotive segment. Previously, you've talked about potential large customers in the military, for instance. Can you say anything about the status there? Yeah. In our team, during last year, we have sort of focused step by step more on the high potentials and those we find in automotive. Simply more interesting because of the higher volumes. Indeed, we still have quite strong interest from military and avionics companies and also Medtech. We are trying to explore and exploit these interests that we get from different directions. Honestly, we are a small team, a small company. That is why we focus. Also, in our communication, we are very, very clear that the main focus is automotive. I can underline that in our products business, we will think more like sector-based. Again, I repeat that we will talk more about retail, PropTech, and Medtech as three very interesting segments in the products business, maybe together with hospitality, where you can include travel and hotels and restaurants. Sector-based marketing, sector-based sales, and to some extent also adjusting our technical offerings to each sector and the specific needs. We think that's the model going forward for Neonode, both in our licensing business and also in the products business. All right. I mean, both in Q4, but also in January, you stated in the report that you've used the ATM to some extent. I think it was about 900,000 new shares in January and then 800,000 or something like that in Q4. Could you just state where you see yourself financially, Fredrik? We're in a strong position now. As I said in the end of my presentation, we have this ability to execute on our strategy now. That we will do, as Urban said later on in the presentation. Regarding that, is it fair to assume that that statement is the same thing as with the cash position that you have now, you expect yourself to be able to reach a break even with that amount of money? That could be one scenario, yes. Another scenario is that we start to have really good traction in the business and then we decide to maybe invest more. In one scenario, we can run now and operate in a similar way as we are today. Indeed, that could be a very interesting trajectory to break even. Right now, we do not worry about running out of cash. Indeed, we want to be more aggressive and increase our spending compared to last year. We will see. Together with the board, Fredrik and I are constantly checking how things are developing. We can make very quick adjustments to tighten a little bit or to give a little bit more gas on the accelerator. This is how we will use it. We are in a very good position, we think. It gives us now freedom to really focus on driving growth and developing the business. This is what we are doing. That is what keeps us busy every day. I can promise you. I can imagine. As a follow-up on that, is it fair to assume that, I mean, if the product sales of TSMs, if that accelerates a lot, then you would have to invest more in that kind of area. If product sales does not ramp up but license sales does, that would mean you would not have to invest as much? Yes and no. The licensing business for the first year, we talk about a lot of automotive, but also military and Medtech customers. Typically, we'll always have long development cycles and launch cycles that will be engineering intensive. We would need engineering resources to manage growth there. You're right, it scales very nicely because it's a classic royalty model. If you focus on high volume programs, that can give you good leverage after mass production. In the products business, it's more complex. We will have some CapEx investments and also investments into components and traditional operating expenses. That will tie up more capital for sure. It's also a question of how we drive the sales and if it's through our own channels or through our partners. This is a way we can also balance the cash burn. If we work more with external partners, it's more on their account to invest in marketing and sales. On the other hand, if we have the ability, I think we can have more direct results and also better results for Neonode. Going forward, we will use that cash position to try to strengthen our presence in the different arenas where we are today promoting our products, either alone or together with partners. You will see more Neonode in these key markets and segments. Again, I was talking about we will join more physical events. We will do more marketing. We will travel more. We will be waving the Neonode flag and interacting more directly with customers. That's why we need to then hire some additional headcount to our sales team. Some here in Stockholm, Sweden, already hired three, actually, the last weeks, and we will hire some more also internationally. All right. Sounds good. We will see if we have any additional questions from other analysts. No. All right. That is all for us. I will leave some final remarks over to you, Urban. Thank you for your attention and continue to follow us. Please log into our website, neonode.com, and read everything there. I think you will find a lot of interesting content there. Thank you very much. Have a nice day.
