FY2025 Year End Results

EU General Safety Regulation: Mandatory camera-based DMS in all new vehicles begins in nine months, driving significant growth for Seeing Machines

Seeing Machines Limited (AIM: SEE), the advanced computer vision technology company that designs AI-powered operator monitoring systems to improve transport safety, has published its audited financial results for the year ended 30 June 2025 ("FY2025" or "the period").

Paul McGlone, CEO of Seeing Machines, commented : "We are now seeing the expected quarterly increase in automotive royalty volumes as the implementation of the European General Safety Regulation, which mandates camera-based Driver Monitoring Systems (DMS) for all new vehicles across Europe, comes into force in nine months' time. As the July 2026 deadline approaches, increasing fitment rates will drive a substantial uplift in royalty volumes. Our OEM customers are forecast to sell around 12.5 million new cars in Europe in 2026, all of which will require DMS technology post deadline. Therefore, as Seeing Machines expects to supply a large portion of this technology, this quarterly growth is expected to continue in the current quarter and beyond.

"In the Aftermarket sector, we have begun converting trial customers into confirmed sales, and our business pipeline-particularly in those markets offering the greatest opportunities, the Americas and EMEA-is developing strongly. As we continue to progress through customer trials, engage in negotiations, and pursue new brand partnerships in collaboration with Mitsubishi across the Americas and Europe, we are confident that our Guardian Generation 3 technology is poised for significant growth and market adoption. Working with Mitsubishi also presents exciting new opportunities in Automotive and near-term prospects in adjacent sectors like rail, building management, and factory automation, demonstrating the versatility of our world-leading technology.

"We are on track to reach cashflow break-even run rate at the end of this calendar year and are firmly focused on being cashflow positive in the second half of FY2026 and beyond. Our strategic priorities continue to centre on sustainable growth and advancing safety technology innovation to get more people home safely."

OEM Division

Seeing Machines' driver and occupant monitoring technology (DMS/OMS) is now installed in over 3.7 million vehicles across nine automotive production programs. The implementation of Europe's General Safety Regulation, which requires advanced distraction warnings in all new vehicles by July 2026, has contributed to increased adoption by automakers. The number of vehicles on the road using Seeing Machines' technology has increased by 69% compared to the previous year, with further growth expected as the regulatory deadline approaches. This growth is significant for the Company, as it is associated with high-margin royalty revenue.

The integration of Asaphus Vision GmbH into the Company has progressed as planned, with engineering teams collaborating to enhance Seeing Machines' AI and machine learning capabilities. The acquisition has also resulted in the establishment of a European headquarters in Berlin.

Collaboration with Mitsubishi Electric Mobility Corporation (MELMB) is ongoing, with a primary focus on automotive opportunities in Japan and a secondary focus on global markets.

The Company expects that the General Safety Regulation will continue to influence current and future projects. Programme awards are anticipated in the coming months, enabling automakers to meet the increasing demand for advanced safety technologies, particularly in Europe. Other regions may also adopt similar standards in the future.

OEM Adjusted Revenue 27,955 26,524 1,431 5%
OEM Adjusted EBITDA (15,339) (19,051) 3,712 (19%)
Royalty revenues , derived from the installation of Seeing Machines' Driver Monitoring System (DMS) technology, remains a high-margin revenue stream. During the year, the Group recorded a 36% increase in royalty volumes and a 35% increase in royalty revenue. The introduction of the EU General Safety Regulation (GSR), which will require Advanced Driver Distraction Warning (ADDW) in all new vehicles sold in Europe from July 2026, is expected to further increase adoption of driver monitoring technologies by automotive OEMs.
Non-recurring engineering (NRE) revenue relates to software development activities undertaken to embed DMS technologies into specific OEM configurations. The increase in NRE revenue for the year reflects contributions from the newly acquired Asaphus Vision GmbH ($3,454,000), offset by a reduction in activities for some larger programs that were at or near completion by the end of June 2025. NRE revenue is typically lower margin and is considered a leading indicator of future royalty revenue.
Revenue from license fees was earned from exclusive collaboration agreements with Magna Electronics (exclusivity period ended 30 June 2025) and Collins Aerospace, reflecting the volume of work undertaken during the year to fulfil those agreements. These agreements are generally unique and one-off in nature, and license fee revenue typically attracts a high margin.
Adjusted EBITDA loss improved by 19% compared to the prior year, primarily due to a higher proportion of high-margin revenue and a decrease in research and development expenditure.

Aftermarket division

Guardian Generation 3 entered full production during the year, with units being trialled by customers in multiple regions, particularly in the Americas. In FY2025, global sales of Guardian hardware totalled 5,466 units.

Referral agreements were established with Mitsubishi Electric Automotive America, Inc. and Mitsubishi Electric Europe B.V., supporting Guardian Generation 3 sales in the Americas and Europe through Mitsubishi's customer networks.

Guardian Generation 3 received homologation approval from two UK bus manufacturers in preparation for the new European General Safety Regulation (GSR) requirements for advanced distraction monitoring by July 2026. The product is positioned for adoption by commercial vehicle OEMs for after-manufacture fitment in Europe.

In North America, Guardian Backup-driver Monitoring System (BdMS) continues to be used in the development of automated vehicle technology. During the year, a contract valued at $1,135,000 was secured to supply Guardian BdMS to a major autonomous vehicle company in North America for its test fleet.

Aftermarket Adjusted Revenue 24,814 41,101 (16,287) (40%)
Aftermarket Adjusted EBITDA (14,712) (19,832) 5,120 (26%)
Driver monitoring revenue represents recurring, high-margin revenue generated from Guardian connections. Revenue increased by 9% during the year, reflecting an increase in the number of connected units.
Hardware and installation revenue from the sale and installation of Guardian units declined by 66%, primarily due to delays in the production of Generation 3 units. As at 30 June 2025, Generation 3 units were available to meet current demand and requirements in the global pipeline.
Royalty revenue agreements with Caterpillar were replaced with a new five-year license agreement at the end of June 2024.
NRE revenue relates to technology development and consulting projects with Caterpillar.
Adjusted EBITDA losses improved by 26% for the year, primarily due to a higher mix of high-margin revenue, efficiency in service costs, lower operating costs, and a reduction in research and development expenditure.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased from $31,525,000 in FY2024 to $39,204,000 in FY2025. The gross profit margin rose from 47% in FY2024 to 63% in FY2025. This increase was primarily due to a change in sales mix, with a higher proportion of revenue from license fees (including royalty revenue) and a lower proportion of lower margin hardware revenue compared to the prior year. Service costs for monitoring revenue also decreased compared to the previous year.

Operating expenses 57,936 58,383 (447) (1%)

* Adjusted operating expenses is a non-IFRS measure but included as an important metric for shareholders understanding of the underlying performance of the business. Adjusted operating expenses exclude depreciation and amortisation expense and include capitalised development costs.

Adjusted operating expenses decreased primarily due to a reduction in people resources, both directly employed and through outsourced contractor roles. The combined number of full-time equivalent employees and contractors declined from 509 at 30 June 2024 to 393 at 30 June 2025, including the addition of 34 full-time equivalent employees from the acquisition of Asaphus in July 2024.

Adjusted operating expenses for the year included $2,386,000 (FY2024: $1,489,000) in one-off costs, comprising restructuring expenses of $2,291,000 (FY2024: $1,113,000) and acquisition costs related to Asaphus Vision GmbH of $95,000 (FY2024: $376,000). Excluding these one-off costs, adjusted operating expenses decreased by $10,986,000 (or 16%) compared to the previous financial year.

Results for the year

As a result of above factors, the loss for the year ended 30 June 2025 decreased by $6,010,000 to $25,266,000 (FY2024 loss: $31,276,000).

Working capital management

After adjusting for the receipts from one-off licensing arrangements, cashflows from operating and investing activities have improved for the year.

Adjusted cashflows * (33,546) (37,194)

* Adjusted cashflows is a non-IFRS measure but included as an important metric for shareholders understanding of the underlying performance of the business. Adjusted cashflows excludes cash from one-off licensing arrangements

Excluding cash received from one-off licensing arrangements, operating cashflows declined by $2,862,000 during the year. This decline was primarily attributable to significant payments for inventories, including payments made to close out remaining Generation 2 units sold in the prior year and payments for new Generation 3 units to support current demand and the global pipeline.

The reduction in development costs capitalised as intangible assets contributed to a favourable movement in cashflows from investing activities.

Industry Update

Driver Monitoring System (DMS) Technology Adoption Driven by Regulatory Developments

The European Union continues to implement regulations that support the adoption of Driver Monitoring System (DMS) technologies. Under the General Safety Regulation (GSR), all new vehicle types have been required to include Driver Drowsiness and Attention Warning (DDAW) systems since July 2022. As of July 2024, this requirement applies to all new vehicles. A further regulation, Advanced Driver Distraction Warning (ADDW), will take effect in July 2026. This regulation mandates systems capable of monitoring driver eye movements to detect distraction, necessitating the use of camera-based DMS.

These regulatory measures are intended to reduce road fatalities and improve driver safety across the EU. The requirement for camera-based systems is expected to increase the deployment of advanced DMS technologies across both the aftermarket and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) segments in Europe.

In addition, the European New Car Assessment Programme (Euro NCAP) has introduced incentives for DMS adoption by awarding safety points to vehicles equipped with such systems. This has contributed to increased interest from OEMs seeking to meet top safety rating criteria.

Outside of Europe, regulatory activity is also progressing. In the United States, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has proposed rulemaking that includes DMS as a countermeasure for impaired and distracted driving. The proposed roadmap includes phased implementation, beginning with detection of distraction and drowsiness, followed by alcohol impairment monitoring and, ultimately, vehicle-initiated safe stops.

In Australia, regulatory focus is increasing, particularly in relation to heavy vehicle safety. Meanwhile, China and Japan are advancing toward DMS mandates, with Japanese OEMs actively working to align with international standards.

The Company has contributed to policy development through submissions to NHTSA, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and the National Transport Commission (NTC), and continues to participate in Euro NCAP's Tier 2 working group on Occupant State Monitoring.

Other Highlights

The Company completed a strategic reorganisation, reducing annualised operating costs by approximately $12 million. As part of this process, John Noble was appointed Chief Technology Officer and Dr Mike Lenné was appointed Chief Safety Officer.
