CEO Alastair Williamson:

In Q4, we’re thrilled to have officially launched the satellite IoT network service. I would like to thank the exceptional wireless connectivity engineering team led by Steve Clarke and the application team developing the cloud-based platform Wyld Fusion led by Gene Myers. I truly believe Wyld are setting the standard for end-to-end Satellite IoT. This direct sensor-to-satellite solution will unlock and enable our customers to receive billions of messages and bring wireless connectivity to even the most remote areas in the world.

Our business development team has been continuously building our sales pipeline. Over the coming months we will see more data orders complement existing Wyld Connect hardware orders. The order book stands at SEK 35 million at the end of Q4.

We have had an excellent start to 2023. We have received SEK 40.5 million in new orders which more than doubles our 2022 order intake, to a total of SEK 76 million. We will strengthen the commercial team in order to accelerate the conversion of our launch partners into paying customers, as well as generate new customers going forward. We will invest in the development team to maintain competitive advantage and execute on our product roadmap.

Our focus will now shift to turning purchase orders into revenue for the company and fortify ourselves as a leading virtual satellite network operator for IoT services.
