One of the largest mobile Operators in the US will start selling Precise Biometrics’ Tactivo in Q1


The Operator has placed an initial order of 5,000 Tactivo units for March
delivery
The Operator will in Q1 start to offer Tactivo to their extensive base of US
Government and Corporate customers. Through their comprehensive sales force,
Tactivo will get substantial exposure to our core geographic and segment
markets. The Operator will launch and make public their Tactivo initiative later
in March.

The Tactivo devices will provide the Operator’s customers the ability to use
government mandated PIV credentials for remote access on mobile devices. A very
important driver of this agreement is the expectation that before the end of the
Government budget year in September 2013, a new policy will be announced,
mandating the use of the PIV credentials for all Government employees and
Government contractors on Mobile devices. This relates directly to some of the
previously launched Cyber Security initiatives, which was even emphasized in
February by President Obama in his State of the Union address. We expect this
area to remain an important focal project within US Government in the coming
years, despite for the current reductions in public spending.

CEO & President of Precise Biometrics, Thomas Marschall says, “We consider the
agreement with this leading Operator, soon to be named, a breakthrough milestone
and a very important endorsement of our line of Tactivo products. Their
marketing and sales resources are unmatched in the market wherefore we have very
high expectations to this partnership, especially considering the size of the
Government market”.

There are currently a total of 5.6 million Government employees and Contractors
requiring PIV credentials. The majority of these have already been issued a PIV
card, and they will be subjected to this new mandatory requirement for
implementation on mobile platforms used for remote access.

Thomas Marschall continues “US Government compliance with the new mandate will
remain a cornerstone of our Tactivo strategy for 2013 and onwards. With our
ambitious Product Roadmap including the introduction of an Android and even
other platform enabled Tactivo products in the coming quarters, we will be able
to cover the full scope of devices uses by US Government employees. As such we
consider ourselves market leader within mobile smartcard readers. Even outside
the US Government segment we continue to see a strong and positive development,
the results of which will start to materialize in spring of this year.”
