Tønsberg, 29 October 2026 -- poLight ASA (OSE: PLT) today announced its results for Q3 2026.
| "Although poLight's revenue in the quarter was low, and a fraction down on | the same period last year, market activity remains buoyant. This is being | driven by maturing consumer-related projects with a strong focus on AR|MR | applications. We continue to see our product and technology platform | recognised for its key advantages, its ability to address important customer | pain points and its potential to enhance the user experience in future AR|MR | devices. | | AR|MR is not the only area offering opportunities, we also see attractive | potential in the industrial segment and interest in TWedge® remains strong. | A small number of OEMs are testing and qualifying TWedge® for potential use | in future AR|MR display solutions. The target remains to bring this | technology to market in close cooperation with selected OEMs, and to secure | NRE funding over and above income from selling samples. To support the | opportunities ahead, we are gradually strengthening capacity and | capabilities across the organisation. | | These efforts will increase operational costs, but are necessary to build | long-term shareholder value and strengthen poLight's position as a leader in | next-generation optical solutions across multiple market segments, with | particular emphasis on AR|MR," explains Dr Øyvind Isaksen, CEO of poLight.
EBITDA totalled NOK -28.9 million in Q3 2026, compared with NOK -29.1 million in Q3 2025.
As at 30 September 2026, poLight had cash and cash equivalents totalling NOK 224.6 million, compared with NOK 284.0 million as at 31 December 2025.
