Our result was severely affected by supply disruptions and the continuing impact of the pandemic. Business activity, however, developed favorably across all divisions, which was demonstrated by good order intake. We now look forward to a strong second half of 2021, which we kick-started with the announcement of our entry into the Automotive DMS market with several partnerships and the acquisition of Phasya. Both investments have a great strategic rationale and are fantastic complements to our current portfolio.
Tobii Dynavox´s revenue decreased by 15 percent organically. This was a result of the previously announced supply disruptions following component shortages, which led to an exceptionally large order book and sales pipeline. Deferred revenue from the first and second quarter corresponds to approximately SEK 70 million, which will materialize as additional revenue, mainly in the third quarter of 2021.
This shows a strong underlying demand and it paves the way for a return to solid growth in the second half of 2021. We have resolved the acute supply disruptions and already delivered most of the order book at the beginning of the third quarter.
Tobii Pro´s revenue increased by 40 percent organically despite a temporary budget freeze for most universities in China, and a continued negative impact of the pandemic where important markets have had extended restrictions.
Nevertheless, I am very pleased with the development as order intake strengthened markedly and was 50 percent higher than in the second quarter 2020, and around the same level as in 2019, and as we saw a very good development in customer interest and activity.
Tobii Pro launched a solution for market research with eye tracking on smartphones, which is an important step to grow our business in attention data analytics.
Tobii Tech´s revenue decreased by 15 percent organically. The pandemic has delayed the introduction and slowed the ramp up of products for our integration customers. The situation is becoming more manageable and the outlook for our customers is becoming more favorable. Intake of new customers and leads developed well and we obtained five new design wins in the quarter - one for the next generation VR headset with an existing customer, four for medical applications.
After the quarter ended, we announced our automotive driver monitoring system (DMS) initiative. Automotive DMS is a vertical that will grow rapidly over the next 5-10 years and Tobii is uniquely positioned to build a leading product and market position.
We also acquired Phasya, an innovative AI software company whose technology and expertise are a great complement to Tobii´s existing portfolio, primarily in automotive, but also with applications in other parts of Tobii. With Tobii´s breadth we can significantly accelerate the scaling of Phasya´s sales and bring its products into more verticals and application areas. We warmly welcome the Phasya team into the Tobii family.
For the group, we have seen business activity pick-up which is demonstrated in sales and marketing expenses returning to more normal levels, however, profitability was impacted by the supply chain disruptions, continued pandemic effects, and some costs related to the spin-off and listing of Tobii Dynavox. Reaching profitability for the full year 2021 remains our ambition but has become more challenging due to the extending negative impacts of the pandemic.
The preparations for the spin-off and listing of Tobii Dynavox towards the end of the year are progressing according to plan. In parallel with this, we are executing on the integration of Tobii Pro and Tobii Tech, successfully fighting our way out of the pandemic, and on top driving innovation and new initiatives. This, together with the continued improving business environment in all three divisions, is setting the stage for a strong and exciting fall.

Consolidated revenue was SEK 282 million (333), corresponding to organic decline of 4%. The supply chain disruptions in Tobii Dynavox resulted in a deferral of revenue from the second quarter to mainly the third quarter 2021. For details, please refer to the Jan-Jun section below.

The North American market accounted for 55% (59%) of consolidated revenue, the European market 24% (17%), and the rest of the world 21% (23%).
The Group's gross margin was 66% (69%). The decline is mainly due to unusually large nonrecurring engineering revenues in Tobii Tech in Q2 2020. Compared to the longer-term average, the low gross margin is explained by negative scale effects due to temporarily lower volumes. The operating result decreased to SEK -99 million (-45) and the operating margin was - 35% (-14%). The supply chain disruptions for Tobii Dynavox resulted in a large deferral of profit from the second quarter to mainly the third quarter – for details, see below. Profitability was pressured by pandemic effects, a pick-up in sales and marketing activity, and some cost increases related to the preparations for the spin-off and listing of Tobii Dynavox.

Pretax loss was SEK -113 million (-71).

matures in February 2022.
The Group's revenue for the first half of 2021 was SEK 620 million (712). Organically, revenue declined by 2%. The supply chain disruptions in Tobii Dynavox resulted in a deferral of revenue from the first half of 2021 to mainly the third quarter of 2021. This effect corresponds to a negative impact of approximately 11 percentage points on organic growth in the first half of 2020. In addition, the pandemic continued to have a dampening effect on sales in all three divisions.
During the period, the North American market accounted for 53% (60%) of the Group's sales, the European market for 23% (19%), and the rest of the world for 24% (21%).
The Group's gross margin was 69% (70%). The operating loss for the Group was SEK -109 million (-68) and the operating margin was -18% (-10%).

The Board of Directors and Management have for many years seen a spin-off of Tobii Dynavox as a natural evolution of the company to maximize potential and long-term shareholder value. By splitting Tobii, enhanced simplicity and focus is enabled, with teams who are more empowered and organizations that are even more agile. It forms two clean-cut investment alternatives, both with exciting futures and strong differentiated investor appeal.
The spin-off and listing process is progressing well and according to plan. The tentative timeline is that Tobii Dynavox will be listed on the Nasdaq Stockholm by the end of 2021.
In recent years, the collaboration between Tobii Pro and Tobii Tech has gradually increased and clear advantages of these divisions working more closely together have become apparent. The management and Board of Directors decided that it is appropriate to integrate these two divisions in parallel with the listing process. The company has executed well and made good progress in this integration during the quarter.
The number of employees recalculated to full-time equivalents at the close of the period was 963 (1,008).
Tobii announced its entry into mass market automotive integrations with the release of its Driver Monitoring System, Tobii DMS, and several new related partnerships.
Tobii acquired Phasya to enhance its offering in automotive and other verticals. Total purchase consideration was EUR 4m, of which EUR 2m is a potential earn-out.
Tobii Dynavox is the world's leading provider of assistive technology for people with impaired ability to communicate due to conditions such as ALS, autism, aphasia, cerebral palsy, or spinal cord injuries.

Tobii Dynavox´s customer Net Promotor Score has consistently been high in the past few years. Encouragingly, since early 2020, it has been showing a positive trend despite the pandemic and related supply chain disruptions. The NPS has been hovering around 50 in the past few months. This exceptionally high NPS score is a testament to Tobii Dynavox fantastic standing among its customers and users.
⚫ In the first quarter 2021, Tobii informed the market of supply chain disruptions for certain Tobii Dynavox products. This led to revenue and profit being pushed from the first half year, to instead materialize as additional revenue and operating result mainly in the third quarter 2021. Total deferred revenue ended up at around SEK 70m and a corresponding impact on operating result over SEK 50m. These supply issues have been resolved, and most of this order backlog has already been shipped and invoiced by the date of this report.
⚫ As is the case in many industries, Tobii Dynavox´s supply chains are still challenged with shortage situations on some input goods. To manage this, we pay a premium for certain components and increase our safety stock, which puts some temporary pressure on the gross margin both in this and in the next few quarters.

Revenue was SEK 80 million (63), corresponding to organic growth of 40%. Customer activity increased significantly, and order intake grew by 50%. With this strong development, sales in the quarter was back at around the same levels as the corresponding quarter before the pandemic (Q2 2019).

The pandemic continued to have a generally negative impact on Tobii Pro's sales during the quarter. Customers still have significant challenges to pursue the types of research, studies and education that eye tracking enables because of the requirement of physical presence of test participants.
Gross margin was 69% (70%).
The operating result was SEK -28 million (-24) and the operating margin was -34% (-39%). The operating margin has been negatively impacted by a return to higher sales and marketing activity, and higher amortization of R&D.

The Group's Parent Company, Tobii AB (publ), has primarily focused on Group-wide services such as overarching management, business and funding, legal affairs and IT since January 1, 2019. The number of employees in the Parent Company is approximately 100.
Tobii's bond financing with a total limit of SEK 600 million, of which SEK 450 million has been issued, will mature in February 2022 and is therefore a current liability on June 30, 2021. Tobii has formulated a plan to refinance its current bond loan of SEK 450 million. January 2020, Tobii entered into a loan agreement for SEK 50 million, intended to cover the Group's working capital needs. The loan facility matured on June 30, 2021 and will not be renewed.
On October 6, 2020, which is in the fourth quarter of 2020, Tobii sold certain subsidiaries, collectively referred to as Smartbox, to an external buyer. The transaction entailed selling all shares in two foreign subsidiaries, which were owned by the Parent Company Tobii AB as of September 30, 2020. Capital gains from the divestment had a positive impact on net financial income for the year 2020 of SEK 10 million.
The Parent Company's revenue during the second quarter totaled SEK 45 million (29) and the operating loss was SEK -3,7 million (-5,3). At the end of the period, the Parent Company had SEK 59 million (57) in cash and cash equivalents

¹⁾ Tobii's bond financing with a total limit of SEK 600 million, of which SEK 450 million has been issued, will mature in February 2022 and is therefore a current liability on June 30, 2021.
The Interim Report complies with the provisions of IAS 34, and the report for the Parent Company has been prepared pursuant to the provisions of the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2. In addition to the financial statements, disclosures under 34.16A also appear in other parts of the interim report. The accounting policies of the Parent Company and the Group, and the calculation principles used in the report, are unchanged from those used in the most recently published Annual Report, with the exception of the application of new standards. The IASB has published amendments to standards effective from January 1, 2021 or later. These amendments have not had a material impact on the financial statements
No business combinations occurred during the quarter, nor during the same period last year.

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
The Group 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 the Group'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 2020 financial year, without any need for impairment being identified.
On February 10, 2020, Tobii announced a subsequent issuance of senior covered bonds of SEK 150 million under its SEK 600 million loan facility, with maturity in February 2022. On February 14, 2019, Tobii announced the first issuance of SEK 300 million within the same loan framework. The total amount of outstanding bonds is thus SEK 450 million. The Parent Company Tobii AB is the issuer of the bond loan. The bonds issued in accordance with the Bond Loan are secured by collateral in shares in Tobii Dynavox AB, Tobii Pro AB and Tobii Tech AB.
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)). The Group's risks and risk management are described in greater detail in the risk section on page 42 in the Directors' Report and in note 3 in Tobii's 2020 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 120 of the 2020 annual report.
In 2020 Tobii introduced the new growth measure organic growth, defined as change in revenue adjusted for change due to currency and, where applicable, structural changes. At group level, structural changes are defined as acquisitions or disposals of businesses, and at the division level, it may also include structural changes between divisions. No structural change occurred in the reported period or in comparative periods.
This section presents only the reconciliation of alternative performance measures that cannot be calculated from information in financial reports in this interim report.

Previously, non-recurring revenue has been charged with cost of services sold on a flat-rate basis. From Q1 2021, the reporting has been changed, to enhance consistency. The change has no effect on operating profit, but results in a higher gross profit and higher R&D costs.
