u-blox AG: u-blox Reports First Nine Months 2023 Revenue of CHF 436 Million
THALWIL, SWITZERLAND / ACCESSWIRE / October 11, 2023 / u-blox (SIX:UBXN), a global leader in wireless and positioning technologies, today announced its preliminary (unaudited) revenues for the first nine months of 2023 ending 30 September.
u-blox generated revenues of CHF 436 million in the nine months of 2023, compared to CHF 475 million in the same period in 2022. Foreign exchange rates had a negative effect on revenues of -4%.
Stephan Zizala, CEO of u-blox, stated, "As previously indicated, after two years of strong double-digit growth, revenues in all regions and markets were lower in the third quarter of 2023, reflecting mainly higher inventory levels at our customers in a weak market environment. Our expectations for 2023 remain unchanged with an improvement in Q4 2023 over Q3. I remain very confident about u-blox's long-term outlook and growth trajectory, thanks to our strong structural growth drivers in automotive and industrial target applications."
