"The first half of 2015 is on track with a year-on-year structural growth of 12% excluding positive currency effects. Melexis herewith once again outperforms amidst mixed car market trends.

The main growth drivers in the second quarter were the magnetic sensors portfolio and the sensor interfaces product line. Additionally, temperature sensors again showed above average growth.

Sales to automotive customers represented 88% of total sales. The portion of standard product (ASSPs) sales increased from 57 to 59% of sales.''
