Our business continued a strong recovery path, achieving an all-time high Q1 revenue. Products & Solutions delivered solid growth, and the customer engagement levels within XR and Automotive verticals accelerated significantly. A challenging and volatile business environment remains a reality, but we are off to a promising start and look forward to showing tangible success throughout 2022.
The covid pandemic continues to create new challenges, and despite a return to normalcy in many parts of the world, we were impacted by restrictions in markets like China. The war in Ukraine is another unexpected upheaval for the world. For Tobii and Tobiians, war is the antithesis of our ideas and beliefs, and we condemn the violence against the people of Ukraine. While the war and sanctions do not substantially impact Tobii's revenue, it is a situation affecting us deeply because we have colleagues in and from Ukraine. We are providing our full support to these colleagues.
Given the intermittent disruption of our business due to the pandemic, I am satisfied with continued healthy growth in this quarter. Products & Solutions drove our business growth, and grew 12 percent organically. Our Integrations business continues to be lumpy and had an organic revenue decline of -12 percent due to a lower level of project revenues in the quarter combined with a decline of some hardware-heavy deliveries compared to 2021. However, the gross profit in Integrations showed continued growth, and our underlying pipeline continues to develop strongly. As the world has started to open up again, we have seen an increase in operational expenditures mainly caused by more travel and customer meetings, which is important for the long-term development of our business.
Highlights in the quarter were positive developments in key engagements in both XR and Automotive. Our announcement that we are in negotiations with Sony to supply eye tracking to PSVR 2 demonstrates the progress we have made. Leading players in the industry continue to invest heavily in the metaverse, VR and AR, and the positive trends we highlighted in Q4 2021 accelerated further during Q1 2022.
Q1 2022 was a key quarter for our driver monitoring system (DMS) initiatives. During the quarter, we demonstrated the performance and robustness of our technology to customers. We received strong positive feedback from key OEMs and tier-1 suppliers in the automotive industry, indicating that our solution is highly competitive. We are already participating in multiple RFQs, and I expect that number to grow over the year. The progress we have made is significant, and we are on track to intercept OEM design wins for start of production in 2025.
I am happy to announce we are pairing our ambitious long-term financial targets with an ambitious set of long-term sustainability targets. We aim to reach net-zero emission on scope one and two by 2025 and scope three by 2030. I am proud to commit to this goal as it is completely in line with our ambition to be a force for good in the world.
The uncertainty caused by Covid-19 remains present, and renewed supply chain risks continue to flare up for Tobii and our customers. Despite external disruptions, we are confident in our ability to execute over the course of the year. We expect to take large steps in 2022 towards our target of breaking through to profitability during 2023 and to reach SEK 1.5bn revenue in 2025.

Revenue increased to SEK 171 million (144), corresponding to organic growth of 7 %.
Products & Solutions increased revenue to SEK 139 million (111), corresponding to organic growth of 12 %. The growth was driven by continued healthy demand for both our scientific research solutions and a strong recovery of our enterprise solutions. However, revenue was held back by a challenging development in China due to renewed pandemic-related restrictions.
Integrations revenue was SEK 32 million (33), corresponding to an organic decline of 12 %. The revenue decline is a result of low levels of non-recurring engineering revenues related to project milestones and a decline in hardware-heavy deliveries compared to 2021. However, Integrations' underlying activity and project pipeline continued on a high level and to trend positively.
The gross margin was 71 % (72 %).
Products & Solution´s gross margin was 70 % (74 %). The gross margin decline is explained by increased freight and component costs.
Integrations gross margin was 76 % (68 %). The improvement in gross margin is related to product mix fluctuations from hardware to software.
Operational expenses increased mainly because of the normalization and recovery of sales and marketing activities and increased G&A costs following the spin-off of Tobii Dynavox.
The operating result was SEK -45 million (-37) and the operating margin was -27 % (-26 %). Net financial items amounted to SEK 3 million (4) and included SEK 4 million (12) in

1) On March 31, 2022, a total of 4.7 million warrants, stock options, and stock units were outstanding, which is an increase of 1.3 million since the end of 2021. Due to the distribution of Tobii Dynavox to Tobii's shareholders in December 2021, the incentive programs have been recalculated in January 2022 to reflect the new share price (in relation to the Tobii Dynavox share price). This resulted in an increase in the total number of instruments in the incentive programs. Due to the distribution, the LTI 2020 and LTI 2021 programs for Dynavox employees will also be terminated. The total effect of the recalculation was +2.9 million instruments.
During the year, 808,402 warrants and stock options have been redeemed, relating to the following programs: LTI 2014/24:1 (115,028), LTI 2018:1 (456,268), LTI 2018:2 (62,742), LTI 2017:2 (67,808) and LTI 2019 (106,556).
In addition, 796,044 warrants and stock options have expired or terminated, relating to the following programs: LTI 2016:2 (149,332), LTI 2017:2 (6,456), LTI 2018:1 (6,456), LTI 2019 (6,456), LTI 2020 (370,511) and LTI 2021 (256,833).
The dilution effect of warrants, stock options, and stock units in all the Company's incentive programs and maximum issuance under LTI 2020 and LTI 2021 corresponds to a maximum of approximately 4.4%.

This segment comprises the integration of Tobii solutions into customers' products, including both software and hardware components. These integrations are deployed in a range of devices, from gaming laptops and medical assessment tolls to virtual reality headsets. The business within this segment is still relatively young, with innovative customers with products in very different stages of development.
No acquisitions have occurred during the quarter.
On August 9, 2021, Tobii acquired all shares in Phasya SA, a private company registered in Liège, Belgium. Phasya's technology and long experience within development and validation of algorithms to assess cognitive states is highly complementary to Tobii´s expertise and eye tracking technology. This will enhance Tobii's Driver Monitoring System, Tobii DMS. It also opens new opportunities for using cognitive state information in several markets, such as VR, AR, scientific research, and gaming, providing substantial synergies. The company currently collaborates with numerous customers in automotive, technology, and aviation, as well as with leading industry associations providing key relationships for Tobii and Phasya to build on.
Phasya is in its early pre-revenue commercialization phase. By leveraging its resources and capabilities, Tobii will be able to accelerate the commercialization of Phasya's offering. Tobii expects the business to scale rapidly, driven by integrations of the algorithms in Tobii´s existing solutions as well as in new applications, and with the mass market adoption for automotive DMS expected in 2024/25.
No divestments have occurred during the quarter.
On October 25, 2021 an Extraordinary General Meeting approved the distribution of Tobii Dynavox AB to Tobii AB's shareholders. The distribution was completed during December and the shares of Tobii Dynavox AB were listed on Nasdaq Stockholm on December 9, 2021. The gain from the distribution was calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the assets distributed and the fair value of the dividend, corresponding to the market value of Tobii Dynavox AB at listing.
All effect related to the divestment have been referred to as Discontinued operations in the report.

Fair value for interest-bearing loans is calculated for disclosure purposes by discounting future cash flows at the current interest rate for the remaining maturity
Tobii classifies financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in a fair-value hierarchy based on the information used in the valuation of each asset or liability. For financial instruments in level 3, information that is material to the fair value of the asset or liability is not observable and Tobii's own assessments are applied. Both interest-bearing loans and contingent considerations are classified under level 3.
All operations related to Smartbox, which was acquired in 2018, were divested during the fourth quarter of 2020. Receivables for contingent consideration relate in their entirety to the sale of Smartbox.

Other than the contingent consideration, Tobii has no financial instruments that are measured at fair value in the income statement.
Impairment testing for goodwill was carried out at the end of the 2021 financial year, without any need for impairment being identified.
As of March 31, 2022, Tobii has no pledged assets or contingent liabilities.
Tobii's business risks include the economic climate, the competitive situation, currency risks, credit risks in relation to customers, financing risks, the risk of impairment write-downs of capitalized R&D and other intangible assets, and regulatory risks (Tobii Dynavox in the U.S. is under the supervisory control of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)). Tobii's risks and risk management are described in greater detail in the risk section on pages 40-45, in the Directors' Report on pages 50-51, and note 3 in Tobii's 2021 Annual Report. Tobii is of the opinion that this risk description remains correct.
No transactions have occurred between Tobii and related parties that have materially affected the Company's position and earnings.
Alternative Performance Measures (APMs) are financial measures of financial performance, financial position, or cash flows other than those defined in the applicable financial reporting framework (IFRS). These are considered to be important supplemental measures of the company's performance. These measures may not be comparable to measures used by other companies since not all companies calculate financial measures in the same way. The key ratios and alternative performance measures that Tobii uses are defined on page 125 of the 2021 annual report, together with additions below.
This section presents only the reconciliation of alternative performance measures that cannot be calculated from the information in financial reports in this interim report.
