Seeing Machines delivered a strong year on year increase of 80% in Automotive production volumes with the Group's technology now installed in over 1.8 million vehicles. Q3 saw the successful start of production on a groundbreaking US$82m interior cabin monitoring program for a large German auto manufacturer and it is expected that this will continue into Q4 FY2024 as more programs start production and new safety regulations come into effect.

 

In Aftermarket, monitored Guardian connections have increased by 22% over the last 12 months. Monitored connections at the end of March 2024 of 59,706 exclude Guardian units sold to customers that have upgraded from Generation 1 to Generation 2, as Australia continues to phase out its 3G network in favour of 4G. Upgrade sales represented 1,216 units during Q3 FY2024.

 

Paul McGlone, CEO of Seeing Machines, said: "As expected at the time of our last KPI announcement, we have seen strong growth return in our Q3 vs Q2 production volumes, and with over 744,000 units in Automotive production year to date, we can confidently expect our annual run rate to exceed 1 million this financial year and expand beyond that as more programs start production across our current won business. We've made good operational progress, with a particular highlight being the largest volume program won to date by Seeing Machines. This program also represents a technically challenging and groundbreaking technological solution, introducing the world's first interior cabin monitoring solution via a single camera system, which makes us very proud and reaffirms our status as a pioneer when it comes to innovation.

 

New, well documented safety regulations, led by Europe are driving demand across our Automotive and Aftermarket businesses, and we are tracking well with demonstrated growth as we help our tier 1 supplier and automotive manufacturer customers navigate this new territory. The safety and regulatory momentum that has continued to build across the globe is supporting increased long-term demand for the Company's differentiated DMS technology.

 

We have worked hard this past quarter to remove cost from our business as part of our disciplined approach and rigorous operational focus. As we see our high-margin royalty revenues increase, we reiterate we are on track to meet FY2024 expectations and achieve a cash break-even run rate during FY2025."
