Smartkem Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Finanznachrichten News

MANCHESTER, England, Nov. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Smartkem (Nasdaq: SMTK), positioned to power the next generation of displays using its disruptive organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs), today provides a business update and reports financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Smartkem Chairman and CEO, Ian Jenks, commented:

"During the third quarter of 2024, we continued to gain traction in our drive to commercialize our proprietary semiconductor materials, which enable flexible, transparent and lightweight microLED displays. In September, we entered into a joint development agreement with Chip Foundation to develop microLED-based backlight technology for LCDs, further expanding our ongoing collaborations with leading display manufacturers. In addition, ITRI has requested Smartkem apply our innovations to develop packaging solutions for advanced computer and AI chips.

"Together with our developmental partners, our printable semiconductor inks have the potential to solve a number of microLED display manufacturing challenges using flexible plastic substrates and low temperature processes. We believe our organic transistor technology has the potential to catalyze the microLED display industry, which is expected to grow from $150 million in revenue in 2024 to over $4 billion by 2031[1].

"Looking into 2025, we are focused on delivering qualifications and design wins on existing and new collaborations as we seek to increase the adoption of advanced display technologies using our technology," concluded Jenks.

Recent Business Highlights

  • Signed a JDA with Shanghai Chip Foundation Semiconductor Technology Co., to co-develop a new generation of microLED-Based backlight technology for Liquid Crystal Displays
  • Presented keynote at the PlayNitride 2024 MicroLED Technology Forum, where we demonstrated the inherent advantages and inevitability of microLED display mass adoption, including high durability, extremely strong brightness, de-coupled production processing, and high aperture ratio.
  • Demonstrated our leadership in organic transistor technology:
    • Exhibited at SEMICON® Taiwan 2024.
    • Delivered presentation titled "Chip-First Active-Matrix Fabrication Approach Improves Transistor Connectivity to Micro-LEDs for Higher Yielding Displays" and exhibited at the 24th International Meeting on Information Display (IMID) 2024 in Korea.
    • Presented "Developing Flexible Integrated Circuits Through Customized Organic TFTs" at The International Conference on Flexible and Printed Electronics (ICFPE) 2024.
    • Exhibited at TechBlick: The Future of Electronics Reshaped global conference in Berlin.
    • Exhibited at the 6th National Conference on Organic Field-Effect Transistors in Hangzhou, China.
