STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Oct. 07, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Neonode Inc. (NASDAQ:NEON), the optical touch technology company, today announced its preliminary revenue for the third quarter of 2015.

While the results for the quarter will not be final until earnings are fully announced in November, management expects that Neonode’s revenue will range from $2.9 million to $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, an increase of approximately 156% to 174% compared to the same period in 2014.
