CEO Fadi Pharaon comments:
"Market conditions remained challenging in the second quarter, and we continue to act decisively to reach positive operating cash flow during 2027. Our cost savings program has delivered above target, and we are now taking further measures to strengthen the financial profile of the Autosense business area. With the savings achieved, sharper product prioritization, and the measures within Autosense, we are laying a solid foundation for the future. Tobii continues to conduct a strategic review, which includes, among other things, discussions with external parties.
Financial results
Net sales amounted to SEK 154 million (284), Adjusted for a pre-purchase deal to Dynavox and one-off income in the comparison quarter, revenue growth was 7 percent.
Products & Solutions net sales amounted to SEK 76 million (93). The change was mainly driven by China's new five-year plan, which has led to a temporary delay in procurement. Net sales were also affected by weakness in Japan and longer contract negotiations in the US. In EMEA, revenue grew organically by 10 percent.
Integration net sales amounted to SEK 37 million (178). The prior-year quarter was heavily impacted by Dynavox's prepayment and one-off revenue, which explains the majority of the change.
Autosense net sales increased to SEK 40 million (12), driven by the previously announced driver monitoring licensing agreement with a major automotive supplier.
Operating profit (EBIT) amounted to SEK 15 million (24) and included a change in value of contingent consideration of SEK 51 million. Underlying earnings were negatively affected by lower net sales and increased amortization of development costs within Autosense. The cost savings program initiated in the third quarter of 2025 has delivered total savings of SEK 163 million, of which SEK 43 million in the second quarter, well above the target of SEK 100 million. Cost efficiency remains a top priority going forward.
Autosense measures
To strengthen Autosense's profitability, we have decided on measures expected to further reduce the annual cost base by just over SEK 50 million, while also creating more routes to market through a broader commercial model. To date, Autosense has mainly delivered complete, production-ready software solutions to automotive manufacturers, and we continue to pursue new opportunities where terms and expected returns are attractive. The offering now also includes licensing of software components and technology platforms, as well as support for customers who want greater control over integration and further development themselves. This enables earlier revenue generation and a more balanced distribution of investment and commercial risk between Tobii and the customer.
As part of Tobii's strategic review, we are considering various types of partnerships for Autosense, which could, for example, grow the business through complementary technology, provide stronger access to customers and markets, and increased scale. Overall, the changes aim to build a more focused, flexible, and financially sustainable Autosense.
Financial position
Cash and cash equivalents amounted to SEK 37 million at the end of the quarter. Free cash flow was SEK -10 million for the quarter and SEK 35 million in the last 12-month period. At the start of the quarter, the company entered into a credit facility with its bank of SEK 25 million, of which SEK 14 million had been utilized at the end of the quarter.
The Board and management continue to act forcefully to address the strained liquidity situation. The ongoing strategic review has led to continued discussions with external parties including evaluation of various structural or transactional alternatives, such as business divestments, partnerships, or capital raising. These discussions are ongoing, and there is no guarantee that this will result in any transaction, decision, or other action.
Commercial and technical progress
Tobii Nexus, our software that enables eye tracking using standard webcams, reached its first consumer product during the quarter when Lenovo launched the Legion Y900 13 tablet. We also launched Webcam Eye Tracking for Research, which enables eye-tracking studies to be conducted remotely and at greater scale using standard webcams.
Autosense secured a new driver monitoring program with a European manufacturer of premium sports cars, with production start in 2026. At the same time, an existing design win for commercial vehicles was expanded through the transfer of the program to a Qualcomm-based platform, with production start in 2028.
Outlook
Market conditions remain volatile, with regional uncertainty, while we expect a gradual normalization of demand in China. Through cost discipline, strict prioritization, and a more clearly focused Autosense, we are laying a solid foundation to reach our goal of positive operating cash flow from 2027 onward. But our ambitions extend further than that: we see significant potential for Tobii, with a sharpened commercial focus, to drive profitable growth over time."
