Revenue
iLOQ’s net sales are earned from digital locking and access management systems. The Group’s products consist of supplied locks, as well as lock operation and maintenance services. The Group’s customers are retailers of locking products and partners.
Sales revenues are recognized when control over the relevant goods or services is transferred to the customer. Lock deliveries are capitalized when control is transferred on the basis of the shipment of the products, when the risks and benefits have been transferred to retailers. The ExWorks Incoterm general applies to product deliveries. For one major customer, the performance obligation is considered to be fulfilled when delivery has taken place, so the Delivered Duty Paid Incoterm applies to these deliveries. Maintenance and repair services are capitalized over time because the end customer receives the benefit of the service when it has been performed.
Standard payment terms apply to sales agreements. Annual discounts may be granted to customers based on the products sold. The recognition principles are described in Note 3 Accounting principles behind the consolidated financial statements. The warranty terms connected to sold products are described in note 24 Provisions.
