going forward…
Low visibility beyond the short term: customers still
releasing orders "last-minute", but…
… early signs of a more promising second half of the year
Overall we expect growth in Edge AIoT revenues this

million
Q2 improving significantly vs Q1
revenues >> Q1
GPM in line with Q1
OPEX decreasing further vs Q1

finding the right balance
Opex Reduction Plan
Goal: lowering the run-rate of total opex by ca. 3M€
incremental to the net saving of 1M€ already coming to fruition
FY2025 opex down ca. 4M€ or 10% vs FY2023 opex
Timing: during next 9 months in sequential steps
How: 2 main initiatives
#1. Doubling down on run-for-cash of embedded business in US and Europe
#2. Strong rationalization of Edge AIoT business line with targeted interventions to redesign the organization after 2.5 year of intense transformation.
