and Operational Results

Innoviz continued its progress towards 2023 series production launches,
further expanded its customer pipeline, added a key automotive industry
veteran as a senior advisor, and is in discussions to expand its program
award with one of its largest customers

TEL AVIV, Israel, March 1, 2023 – Innoviz Technologies Ltd. (Nasdaq: INVZ) (the “Company” or “Innoviz”), a Tier-1 direct supplier of high-performance, solid-state LiDAR sensors and perception software, today provided commercial and strategic updates on its business, reported its financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2022 and announced 2023 operational and financial targets.

Management Commentary
 
“2022 was a fast-paced and exciting year at Innoviz,” said Omer Keilaf, CEO of Innoviz Technologies. “The march towards our first series production launch continues to move smoothly, and we expect unit volume growth from BMW and our shuttle program in the second half of 2023. Our RFI and RFQ pipeline continues to grow, and we are in advanced discussions to expand our program lineup with one of our largest customers. We will continue to focus on winning production level deals to deliver sustainable long-term revenue and drive enhanced shareholder value.”

Commercial & Strategic Updates
 
•
2023 Start of Production (SOP) remains on track – the Company believes that full production launches for Innoviz’s BMW and Shuttle programs remain on track, with volumes expected to increase in the second half of 2023.
 
•
Volkswagen program is on track and exploring additional business opportunities – the Company’s Volkswagen CARIAD program remains on track for a mid-decade launch and is progressing well. Furthermore, the Company is in advanced discussions that are exploring additional business opportunities with the Volkswagen Group.
 
•
Continued growth and expansion in its customer pipeline – during the fourth quarter the Company saw further growth in its customer RFI/RFQ pipeline, including the addition of a multi-million unit LiDAR RFI. The Company’s pipeline for potential LiDAR orders is now over 20 million LIDAR units, and the Company believes the 10-15 programs currently in the pipeline represent an estimated opportunity to quote non-recurring engineering (NRE) bookings in the range of $150 to $250 million.
 
•
Innoviz added Steven Schondorf as a senior strategic advisor – Schondorf is an experienced leader in automotive driver assistance systems, active safety, passive safety and safety electronics. He spent 30 years at Ford Motor Company, most recently as the Chief Engineer of ADAS Systems, Hardware and Features, where he was responsible for evaluating early-stage technologies and built the company’s system architecture and overall product strategy, including features like Ford’s BlueCruise hands-free driving system. Innoviz believes Schondorf’s expertise will help accelerate the Company’s evolution towards becoming a leading Tier 1 direct supplier of LiDAR to automotive OEMs around the world.
 
•
Innoviz 360 debuted at CES – in only one year, Innoviz progressed from announcing plans for a new 360-degree LiDAR at CES in January 2022 to exhibiting a full sample unit with a live point cloud at CES in January 2023. The Company has received significant customer interest relating to Innoviz 360 and it believes the market has a strong appetite for new solutions at Innoviz’s performance levels and price points.
 
Full Year 2022 Financial Results
 
Revenues in 2022 were $6.0 million, up 10% compared to revenues of $5.5 million in 2021. Innoviz sold a record number of LiDAR units in 2022, with unit volumes increasing 99% in 2022 as compared to 2021. The difference in the increase between volume and revenue growth in 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily exists due to non-recurring items from machinery and other revenues in 2021, coupled with the evolution of average selling prices (ASPs) as the Company transitions from selling early-stage sample units to higher volumes as it gets closer to launching series production.

Operating expenses in 2022 were $124.6 million, down 18% compared to operating expenses of $152.6 million in 2021. Operating expenses for 2022 included $19.3 million of share-based compensation compared to $64.7 million of share-based compensation in 2021. The year-over-year decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to the lower level of share-based compensation, partially offset by higher payroll expenses, InnovizTwo development costs, depreciation and facilities costs.

Research and development expenses in 2022 were $95.1 million, a slight increase from research and development expenses of $93.3 million in 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to higher payroll expenses and was partially offset by a decrease in share-based compensation, with 2022 share-based compensation of $12.0 million compared to $25.5 million in 2021.

Liquidity: Innoviz maintains significant liquidity with approximately $186.2 million in cash, short term deposits, short term restricted cash and marketable securities as of December 31, 2022.

•
The Company won two new series production awards in 2022, ahead of its stated goal of adding at least one.
•
The Company increased its forward-looking order book by +165% in 2022, ahead of its stated goal of +30%.
•

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 forward looking order book and Innoviz's projected future results, including 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. “Forward-looking order book" is the cumulative projected future sales of hardware and perception software based on current estimates of volumes and pricing relating to a project. “NRE (Non-recuring Engineering) bookings” is booked services which 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 and NRE book, 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, and potential changes and developments in the highly competitive LiDAR technology and related industries. 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 SEC on March 30, 2022 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.
