Fingerprint Cards AB (FPC) has received a new order for 455,000 units of its
swipe sensor technology, to be delivered in early June 2013. This order comes
less than two weeks after the announcement of an additional volume of 275,000
units for Japanese smartphones scheduled for launch in Japan during the second
quarter of 2013.
“The timing of this additional mass production order is somewhat earlier than
previously expected and confirms that our launch in the Asian mobile phone
market is progressing well,” says Johan Carlström, President and CEO of
Fingerprint Cards AB.
