THE CEO'S COMMENTS
"This quarter saw a continued decline in revenues from our legacy business as demand for our solutions in the printer market maintained its negative trend. Despite these challenges, we successfully continued to deliver on our existing customer projects, even though we did not secure any new contracts during this period. We are actively working to expand our business opportunities and advance our product roadmap across both core technology platforms: MultiSensing® and zForce®. This aims to offset the negative trend within the legacy business while driving sustainable future growth," said Daniel Alexus, President & CEO of Neonode.
"Having stepped into the role as President & CEO on March 31, 2025, I am gaining deeper insights into the company, its products, and its people. My optimism about Neonode's future continues to grow. The zForce platform holds significant promise for both touch on displays and rugged applications. Moving forward, we must sharpen our focus on customer segments that are mature and positioned for sustained growth," continued Mr. Alexus.
"With MultiSensing, we have developed a compelling, end-to-end in-house solution that allows us to move quickly and maintain strong quality control. We are currently delivering to a previously announced commercial vehicle OEM, and we will continue to build strategic partnerships within the automotive sector. At the same time, we are exploring new verticals where our unique value proposition, especially for addressing narrow-vision challenges, can be deployed more rapidly."
"Our overarching focus for both platforms remains clear: to solve real-world problems that customers care about and are willing to invest in," concluded Mr. Alexus.
FINANCIAL OVERVIEW FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2025
Revenues from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $0.5 million, a 37.0% decrease compared to the same period in 2024. License revenues were $0.5 million, a decrease of 35.7% compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease was mainly due to lower demand for our legacy customers' products within printer and passenger car touch applications, offset by revenues from new licensing customers.
Revenues from non-recurring engineering for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $16,000, a 61.0% decrease compared to the same period in 2024, mainly due to fewer projects.
Operating expenses from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $2.5 million, a 8.0% decrease compared to the same period in 2024.
Loss from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $1.8 million, or $0.11 per share, compared to a loss from continuing operations of 1.7 million, or $0.11 per share for the same period in 2024.
Cash used by operations was $1.4 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $1.9 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a lower net loss and fewer component purchases following the phaseout of TSM manufacturing.
Cash and accounts receivable totaled $15.7 million and working capital for continuing operations was $14.1 million as of March 31, 2025, compared to $17.2 million and $16.1 million as of December 31, 2024, respectively. Our financial position and liquidity provide stability and enable us to execute our strategy to secure more licensing opportunities for our innovative technologies.

Apple's 10% Stock Pop: Time to Invest in the Technology Giant Embracing America?

Key Points Apple has increased its spending plans in the United States from $500 billion to $600 billion. There are positives and negatives to the announcement from an investor's perspective. Shares of Apple stock look expensive today relative to its growth rate. 10 stocks we like better than Apple › Investors are back on the Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) train. The stock of the multinational technology giant is still down slightly in 2025 but popped over 10% in the last week after management announced new planned spending in the U.S. CEO Tim Cook even visited the White House in a joint press conference with President Donald Trump to announce this new planned spending on components for the iPhone as well as other Apple products in America. It has helped the company achieve some breathing room around potential tariffs on semiconductors, iPhone components, and iPhones themselves getting imported to America. Apple's stock got its mojo back on this upsized spending news, but should you actually buy shares today? Here's what the numbers say. A $600 billion investment Earlier this year, Apple announced that it would spend $500 billion over the next four years in the United States. Last week, it upped its estimate to $600 billion, or $150 billion annually. This is different than a company's announced capital expenditure plans, such as when Amazon promises $100 billion in investments related to data centers and its delivery network. Apple is spending money with its suppliers, including advanced glass screens and various semiconductor manufacturers. It is more of an announcement around committed orders for products, which will spur demand for factory work in the United States. Apple is a sprawling company, and the announced spending will occur in all 50 states, impact 450,000 jobs, and involve 79 different factories. It is astounding how complex Apple's supply chain for the iPhone and other computing hardware is today. However, Apple is still not at the point of a "Made in America iPhone" as assembly and other services are performed in China and India, with Apple negotiating with the U.S. government around what is feasible to bring to the United States. Investors applauded the spending plans as a way to shy away from tariff risks on iPhone and semiconductor imports, which could have added huge costs to Apple's supply chain, damaging its profits. Now, it seems to be in good standing with the U.S. government and regulation authorities again. Does the announcement matter? In regard to tariffs, this spending announcement won't necessarily hurt the company, it just prevents Apple from having future cost increases across its supply chain. However, since the U.S. has higher salaries and labor standards, this investment may lead to higher input costs for product components, which could lead to margin compression. Apple's operating margin has steadily risen since the COVID-19 pandemic, hitting a record high of 32% over the last 12 months. Sourcing components in the United States may reverse this expansion. What matters more at the end of the day is demand for Apple's products. Last quarter, the company released solid figures for the three months ending in June. Total revenue grew just under 10% year over year, driven by services revenue and iPhone revenue growth. Even though the iPhone is almost 20 years old, it remains the bread and butter of Apple's business today. This puts the company in a tough spot. Even though the iPhone remains wildly popular, unit volumes have stagnated for years, meaning Apple is only able to grow revenue by increasing prices. This is not an ideal position to be in. Price increases may be necessary just to maintain profit margins in the future if input costs grow due to the Made-in-America investments. All in all, this announcement does matter. It just might be a negative for Apple's business, contrary to the stock's initial reaction. The truth about Apple stock There are a lot of arguments to be made -- both bearish and bullish -- for Apple stock. Bulls might say this is a fantastic brand with major lock-in effects along with a growing services division with strong profit margins. Bears may say that Apple's unit volumes for the iPhone have fallen with no new successful products coming down the pipeline. For example, the Apple Vision Pro has turned into a total product bust, likely losing the company billions if not tens of billions of dollars. A deciding factor in this debate could be the stock's valuation. Apple's price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) is 35. This is quite expensive for a business with low revenue growth. Compare that to Alphabet, which has grown its revenue significantly faster than Apple over the last few years but trades at a more reasonable P/E ratio of 22. Apple may be a great business, but that doesn't mean you should ignore the price you pay when analyzing its stock. Avoid buying shares of Apple after this post-announcement pop.

‘Joyride Might Be Over,' Says Top Investor About Nvidia Stock

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock has built a reputation for consistently shattering quarterly earnings projections – a fact seasoned investors know all too well. But that winning streak can be a double-edged sword, as even a solid beat doesn't always translate into immediate post-earnings gains. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. That dynamic makes Nvidia's upcoming fiscal Q2 2026 earnings on August 27 especially intriguing. Momentum is already firmly in the bulls' corner, with NVDA shares up 91% since hitting a trough in early April. Expectations remain strong, though not at the triple-digit pace NVDA has delivered in its best quarters. The average analyst estimate of $45.75 billion points to year-over-year growth of 52.31%, with margins expected to hold at an impressive 72%. On paper, such results could still tempt investors to add shares ahead of the report – even if history suggests a short-term lull is possible afterward. But not everyone is convinced. One top investor, known as Oakoff Investments, is taking a far more cautious stance. 'I don't like the setup formed in NVDA's price action as it approaches the Q2 earnings release date,' warns the 5-star investor, who is among the top 4% of TipRanks' stock pros. Oakoff's caution stems largely from concerns about Nvidia's sales to China. While previous U.S. restrictions appear to have been lifted, there are signs the Chinese government may impose its own limits. That also possibility raises the stakes for Nvidia to deliver outsized growth in other regions to sustain investor enthusiasm – a task Oakoff believes is becoming increasingly difficult. 'If the market gets a slight hint towards further deterioration on this front, the stock may sell off badly even if NVDA beats the headline numbers as strongly as it did during the past 2 years,' Oakoff opined. Valuation is another sticking point. After months of gains, Oakoff argues the rally has been fueled by multiple expansion, pushing NVDA's Forward P/E ratio to an 'unsustainable' 42.5x. The result, according to Oakoff, is a setup vulnerable to disappointment. Given these risks, the investor is leaning toward profit-taking before the earnings call. 'I maintain a Hold rating, believing NVDA stock's high valuation and the new China uncertainty outweigh the likelihood of a strong Q2 beat,' Oakoff says. (To watch Oakoff Investments' track record, click here) Wall Street, in contrast, remains almost 'all in' on NVDA. With 35 Buys, 3 Holds, and a solitary Sell rating, the stock enjoys a Strong Buy consensus rating.

2 Soaring Tech Stocks to Buy and Hold for the Next Decade

Key Points Microsoft is well on its way to dethroning Amazon in the ever-expanding cloud market. Oracle's autonomous database business is booming, and it sees further room for growth. 10 stocks we like better than Microsoft › Investors looking for winning stock ideas for the next decade need to look no further than the companies enabling artificial intelligence (AI) adoption. The recent financial results of leading companies serving the cloud computing market show that enterprise investment in AI is still in the early stages. Here are two stocks to profit from this opportunity. 1. Microsoft Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) is the 800-pound gorilla in the cloud services market. While Amazon continues to control the top spot in market share, Microsoft Azure is growing faster and is on pace to eventually overtake the No. 1 position in the cloud market. Microsoft stock is up 26% year to date. Azure and other cloud services from Microsoft posted a 39% year-over-year increase in revenue for the fiscal fourth quarter (which ended in June). Management credits its growing footprint of over 400 data centers in 70 regions around the world for its momentum. The company is further bolstering its competitive position with tools like Microsoft Fabric. This is a data and analytics platform that is rapidly expanding. Revenue grew 55% year over year last quarter, indicating that Microsoft is positioned to capture demand for AI-driven database services. Microsoft generates $281 billion in annual revenue right now, yet management noted that there is $368 billion worth of contracted backlog across its cloud business. With a company this large growing earnings per share at 24% year over year in the recent quarter, it's possible that Wall Street is still underestimating the size of the AI opportunity. Analysts are projecting low-double-digit earnings growth over the next few years, but that might be underestimating the company's opportunity. Microsoft has delivered excellent returns for investors for many years, and that streak doesn't appear to be ending anytime soon. 2. Oracle Oracle (NYSE: ORCL) is another top tech stock to ride the growing investment in cloud services. Oracle's Cloud Infrastructure business is experiencing explosive growth, which sent the stock to new highs after its fiscal Q4 earnings report in June. "In Q4, we hit double-digit revenue growth and it's only going up from here," CEO Safra Catz said during the earnings call. Oracle has been building up its cloud offering for over a decade, and it's paying off. Companies are choosing Oracle for its market-leading database services to leverage autonomous features. Autonomous database consumption revenue grew 47% year over year, accelerating from 27% growth in the year-ago quarter. Beginning in fiscal 2026, management expects growth to accelerate. Company guidance calls for total cloud revenue growth to be over 40% in constant currency, with cloud infrastructure growth of over 70%, which includes the autonomous database business. Oracle is playing an important role in enabling the AI revolution across the economy. This is evidenced by its participation in the Stargate Project with OpenAI, which aims to build state-of-the-art AI infrastructure in the U.S. The revenue expected from Stargate should at least marginally contribute to Oracle's growth over the next decade. For what it's worth, Wall Street analysts expect Oracle's adjusted (non-GAAP) earnings to grow at an annualized rate of 19% through fiscal 2030. Oracle is an industry-leading cloud database provider with a large suite of enterprise applications. It has a long history of delivering solid returns to investors, with the stock up over 500% in the last decade. With growth accelerating due to AI, it should continue to reward shareholders.
