"With our transition from SOP preparation to steady state manufacturing advancing day by day, we are shifting even more of our focus towards winning the next rounds of series production awards," said Omer Keilaf, Innoviz Co-Founder and CEO. "We continue to believe the LiDAR market will ultimately be a 'winner takes most' industry, and that the next few deals could provide us with additional momentum."
Keilaf added, "While the tragic events that have taken place in Israel over the past month have affected us all on a personal level, our global business has continued to operate as planned. Our international manufacturing operations in Germany, the U.S. and Asia were unaffected, and operations at our Israeli headquarters quickly normalized, aided by detailed business continuity planning coupled with a tremendous level of determination and commitment from the Innoviz team. It is in these trying times that we lift our heads and persevere."
Commercial and Strategic Updates
- BMW Group series production unit shipments began in the third quarter of 2023 – the Company began shipping production units of its InnovizOne LiDAR sensor components to the BMW Group's first generation program coupled with the final iteration of the perception software.
- Shuttle program transitioned to six LiDAR configuration, from four, and continues progress towards SOP – the InnovizOne-based shuttle program has transitioned from a four-LiDAR configuration, with a LiDAR in each corner, to a six-LiDAR configuration, adding two side LiDARs capable of producing a wide field of view. The change highlights the flexibility of the platform and is expected to increase the total revenue content per vehicle available to Innoviz. The program continues to progress towards SOP.
- August capital raise strengthened positioning heading into RFQ decision making – multiple RFQ programs progressed to various levels of testing, audits, and certification during the third quarter, with three programs moving to more advanced financial and operational audits. The strategic decision to raise capital strengthened the Company's positioning in these processes and helped it progress towards the final stages for these programs. The Company continues to target adding two new OEMs to its customer lineup this year.
- Growing non-recurring engineering (NRE) revenue contribution validates long-term strategy – incremental NRE revenue contribution in the third quarter of 2023 validated the Company's strategy to transition to a Tier 1 automotive supplier and to pursue increasing amounts of pre-production NRE revenue. The Company believes NRE revenue will become a growing contributor to its medium-term financial profile.
- Upgraded version of InnovizTwo B-Sample with new custom ASIC shipped to multiple customers and prospects – the Company unveiled a second iteration of its InnovizTwo sensor and software suite B-sample with its new and more powerful custom ASIC integrated. This latest B2.0 version unlocks new levels of accuracy, increased range, a broader field of view, and higher resolution. The increased performance and functionality are expected to further strengthen Innoviz's positioning within its RFQ pipeline.
- New light commercial vehicle program remains on a rapid development path – sample shipments for the new light commercial vehicle program announced Q1 2023 continued to grow in the quarter. The program remains on track for a mid-decade SOP and we expect test vehicles with multiple InnovizTwo LiDAR installed to be on public roads later this year.
- Working towards additional growth opportunities with Volkswagen Group – the Company continues to work on securing additional vehicles and platforms within the Volkswagen Group, in addition to its initial 2022 series production award. The program continues to track towards a mid-decade SOP.
- BMW Group Gen 2 program development continues – development continued on the InnovizTwo-based second generation LiDAR sensor and software suite for the BMW Group, including the all-new InnovizCore AI compute module and Minimum Risk Maneuver (MRM) software.
- Examples of Innoviz technology expected to be on display at CES – Innoviz plans to display a Level 3 BMW 7 Series with an integrated InnovizOne LiDAR at its booth at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this January. Investors interested in coordinating a booth visit are encouraged to reach out to Email Contact.
Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Revenues in Q3 2023 were $3.5 million, up 138% compared to revenues of $1.5 million in Q2 2023 and up 297% compared to revenues of $0.9 million in Q3 2022. The 138% quarter-over-quarter increase in revenues was driven by strong growth in InnovizTwo unit sales, which increased 102% sequentially, coupled with incremental NRE revenue. The year-over-year growth in revenues was a combination of higher sample shipments and higher NRE revenues, partially offset by lower production-level component pricing for the BMW first generation program.
Operating expenses in Q3 2023 were $27.8 million, a decrease of 11% compared to operating expenses of $31.3 million in Q3 2022. Operating expenses for Q3 2023 included $5.0 million of share-based compensation compared to $4.9 million of share-based compensation in Q3 2022. The year-over-year decrease in operating expense was driven primarily by $2.9 million of deferred NRE expenses, which will be matched to future NRE revenue and recognized as COGS.
Liquidity as of September 30, 2023 consisted of approximately $163.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, short term deposits, short term restricted cash and marketable securities.
2023 Financial Targets
The Company reiterated its outlook for full year 2023:
- +1-3 additional programs with existing customers
- +2 new series production awards with new customers
- 2023 revenues are expected to be in the range of $15-20 million (+150-230% YoY)
- Q4 2023 revenues are expected to be in the range of $9-14 million (+470-790% YoY)
- 2023 Cash Collection from Customers is expected to be in the range of $20-30 million (+295-490% YoY)
- 2023 net new NRE bookings are expected to be in the range of $20-70 million (+80-530% YoY)

Forward Looking Statements
This announcement contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including statements regarding the services offered by Innoviz, the anticipated technological capability of Innoviz's products, the markets in which Innoviz operates, Innoviz's projected future operational and financial results, including Cash Collection from Customers, revenue and non-recurring engineering (NRE) bookings. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words "believe," "project," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "strategy," "future," "opportunity," "plan," "may," "should," "will," "would," "will be," "will continue," "will likely result," and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. "Cash Collection from Customers" is cash received by the Company from revenues, advances and NRE bookings as described in the following sentence. "NRE (Non-recuring Engineering) bookings" is booked services that may be ordered from Innoviz usually as part of a program design win and includes, among other things, application engineering, product adaptation services, testing and validation services, standards and qualification work and change requests (usually during the lifetime of a program). The commitment for a certain NRE is usually provided around the design win and may be paid based on milestones over the development phase of the project which may take a few years.
Many factors could cause actual future events, and, in the case of our forward-looking revenue, Cash Collection from Customers, and NRE bookings, actual orders or actual payments, to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this announcement including but not limited to, the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations, the ability to convert design wins into definitive orders and the magnitude of such orders, the possibility that NRE would be set off against liabilities and indemnities, the ability to identify and realize additional opportunities, potential changes and developments in the highly competitive LiDAR technology and related industries, and our expectations regarding the impact of the evolving conflict in Israel to our ongoing operations. The foregoing list is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider such risk and the other risks and uncertainties described in Innoviz's annual report on Form 20-F filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 9, 2023 and other documents filed by Innoviz from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and Innoviz assumes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Innoviz gives no assurance that it will achieve its expectations.
