Exceeds second quarter revenue guidance due to
improved customer demand for high-performance connectivity
solutions
Acquires Acroname, bolstering innovative
USB offering for the industrial market
Strong balance sheet supports highly selective
acquisition strategy to complement organic growth
HOD HASHARON, Israel, Aug. 7, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Valens Semiconductor Ltd. (NYSE: VLN), a leader in
high-performance connectivity, today reported financial results for
the second quarter ended June 30,
2024.
"Our team made solid progress executing against our long-term
strategy and capitalizing on growing market demand for our
chipsets," said Gideon Ben-Zvi, CEO
of Valens Semiconductor. "As a result, our second quarter revenue
exceeded our guidance, increasing our confidence in the positive
trends we are seeing across the diverse verticals we serve. Our
mid- and long-term opportunities remain promising despite
short-term industry challenges, including slow inventory digestion
in the Audio-Video sector."
"On May 31, 2024, we completed the
acquisition of Acroname, our first M&A transaction, expanding
our position in the industrial and Audio-Video markets.
Importantly, our strong balance sheet provides us with the
flexibility to move quickly when opportunities arise. Going
forward, we expect this highly selective acquisition strategy to
complement our organic growth initiatives.
"We continued to see growing interest in the adoption of our
latest USB3 extension technology, the VS6320 chipset. Since its
introduction late last year, we have engaged with over 50
customers, that are integrating the chipset into a wide variety of
products, as announced at InfoComm International in June. This
momentum validates the VS6320's groundbreaking technology and high
demand for reliable, streamlined, and affordable connectivity. We
expect to start generating revenue from this chipset in the second
half of 2024, before ramping up further in 2025.
"The Pro AV market presents a significant growth opportunity for
Valens Semiconductor, driven by the latest additions to the
portfolio, as well as our legacy products. Our chipset family
offers industry-leading and standard-setting solutions to customers
in the professional Audio-Video market, as well as in the
industrial, machine vision and medical end markets. We believe
these combined verticals represent a total addressable market of
approximately $1 billion per
annum.
"Additionally, we are confident that our innovative technology
will position us to take advantage of the large opportunity within
the automotive segment, which we estimate will have a total
addressable market of $4.5 billion
per annum by 2029.
"As we look to the second half of 2024 and beyond, Valens
Semiconductor remains committed to capitalizing on the promising
opportunities within our target markets. Our innovative,
standard-setting, and high-speed connectivity solutions and highly
sophisticated chipsets position us to achieve our goals and deliver
value for our stakeholders," concluded Ben-Zvi.
Key Business Highlights
- Acquired Acroname Inc., a pioneer in advanced automation and
control technologies for applications in industrial, Audio-Video,
video conferencing rooms, and embedded robotic control systems, for
$7.8 million in cash. An additional
$1.3 million was transferred to
Acroname in consideration for the amount Acroname held in cash at
closing. Further, Valens will be obligated to pay the sellers earn
out payments of up to $7.2 million,
depending on the achievement of certain revenue, EBITDA and
cashflow targets in 2024 and 2025, and development of a certain
product by June 2026. The acquisition
enables Valens to expand its position in the industrial market with
a holistic USB-focused offering.
- Engaged with over 50 customers for the VS6320, with a wide
variety of product launches announced at InfoComm International -
the largest professional Audio-Video trade show in North America, including USB extenders, PTZ
cameras, video bars, wall plates, docking stations, room appliance
controllers, and USB hub switches.
- Announced a new suite of products by Good Way Technology, one
of the world's leading PC peripheral design and manufacturing
companies, based on Valens Semiconductor's VS6320 chipset,
compliant with the HDBaseT-USB3 standard.
- Progressed on several evaluation processes with global
automotive OEMs for the VA7000 MIPI A-PHY compliant chipset and are
continuing to work with the long list of companies joining the
A-PHY ecosystem by designing and developing products based around
this technology.
Key Financial Highlights
- Second quarter 2024 revenues reached $13.6 million, of which Acroname contributed
$0.4 million, compared to
$24.2 million in the second quarter
of 2023.
- Audio-video revenues accounted for approximately 60% of
total revenues at $8.1 million, of
which Acroname contributed $0.4
million, compared to $15.5
million in the second quarter of 2023, due to ongoing
inventory digestion.
- Automotive revenues accounted for approximately 40% of
total revenues at $5.5 million,
compared to $8.7 million in the
second quarter of 2023, due to lower demand from
Mercedes-Benz.
- GAAP gross margin was 61.4% for the second quarter of 2024
(non-GAAP gross margin was 64.5%). This compared to GAAP gross
margin of 61.8% for the second quarter of 2023 (non-GAAP gross
margin of 63.1%). GAAP Net Loss was $(8.9)
million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to a GAAP
Net Loss of $(4.6) million in the
second quarter of 2023. On a segment basis, Audio-Video gross
margin was 75.4% and automotive gross margin was 40.9% compared to
75.3% and 37.8%, respectively in the second quarter of 2023.
- Adjusted EBITDA Loss in the second quarter of 2024 was
$(5.2) million, compared to Adjusted
EBITDA loss of $(0.8) million in the
second quarter of 2023.
- Strong balance sheet of $130.6
million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term deposits,
and no debt, as of June 30, 2024,
compared to $139.8 million on
March 31, 2024, with the reduction in
cash due to ongoing operational expenses and $7.8 million associated with the
acquisition.
- Inventory balance of $14.1
million on June 30, 2024, of
which $2.5 million was from Acroname.
Excluding this amount, inventories were $11.6 million, down compared to $12.5 million on March 31,
2024.
Financial Outlook
Disclaimer: Valens Semiconductor does not provide GAAP net
profit (loss) guidance as certain elements of net profit (loss),
including share-based compensation expenses and warrant valuations,
are not predictable due to the high variability and difficulty of
making accurate forecasts. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure.
See the tables below for additional information regarding this and
other non-GAAP metrics used in this release.
"Looking ahead, we are confident in our growth potential for the
medium and long term. As the industry recovers, we are prepared to
implement our growth strategy with an even more comprehensive
portfolio of solutions, designed to penetrate new markets and
sectors," said Guy Nathanzon, CFO of Valens Semiconductor.
"Our third quarter revenues are expected to range between
$14.7 million to $15.4 million, of which $1.2 million to $1.4
million is expected to be attributed to Acroname. Gross
margin is expected to range between 52.0% and 53.0%, and adjusted
EBITDA loss is expected to range between $(6.8) million and $(6.3)
million. We have a strong cash position, and in the future,
we expect additional, highly selective synergistic M&A deals
that align with our long-term growth strategy," concluded
Nathanzon.

statements regarding our anticipated future results, including
financial results, currency exchange rates, and contract wins, and
future economic and market conditions. These statements are based
on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this press
release, and on the current expectations of Valens Semiconductor's

performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for
illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as and

a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability.
Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to
predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and
circumstances are beyond the control of Valens Semiconductor. These
forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties, including the cyclicality of the semiconductor
industry; the effect of inflation and a rising interest rate
environment on our customers and industry; the ability of our
customers to absorb inventory; the impact of the global pandemic
caused by COVID-19 on our customers' budgets and on economic
conditions generally, as well as the length, severity of and pace
of recovery following the pandemic; competition in the
semiconductor industry, and the failure to introduce new
technologies and products in a timely manner to compete
successfully against competitors; if Valens fails to adjust its
supply chain volume due to changing market conditions or fails to
estimate its customers' demand; disruptions in relationships with
any one of Valens' key customers; any difficulty selling Valens'
products if customers do not design its products into their product
offerings; Valens' dependence on winning selection processes; even
if Valens succeeds in winning selection processes for its products,
Valens may not generate timely or sufficient net sales or margins
from those wins; sustained yield problems or other delays or
quality events in the manufacturing process of products; our
ability to effectively manage, invest in, grow, and retain our
sales force, research and development capabilities, marketing team
and other key personnel; our ability to timely adjust product
prices to customers following price increase by the supply chain;

expectations regarding the outcome of any future litigation in
which we are named as a party; our ability to adequately protect
and defend our intellectual property and other proprietary rights;
our ability to successfully integrate or otherwise achieve
anticipated benefits from acquired businesses; the market price and
trading volume of the Valens ordinary shares may be volatile and
could decline significantly; political, economic, governmental and
tax consequences associated with our incorporation and location in
Israel; and those factors
discussed in Valens' Form 20-F filed with the SEC on February 28, 2024 under the heading "Risk
Factors," and other documents of Valens filed, or to be filed, with
the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove
incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results
implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be
additional risks that Valens does not presently know or that Valens
currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual
results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking
statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Valens'
expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of
the date of this press release. Valens anticipates that subsequent
events and developments may cause Valens' assessments to change.

statements at some point in the future, Valens specifically
disclaims any obligation to do so. These forward-looking statements

depreciation and amortization,
further adjusted to exclude share-based compensation and change in
fair value of Forfeiture Shares, which may vary from
period-to-period. We caution investors that amounts
presented in accordance with our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may
not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers,
because not all issuers calculate
Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner. Adjusted EBITDA should not be
considered as an alternative to Net loss or any other performance
measures derived in accordance
with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating
activities as a measure of our liquidity. Please refer to the
appendix at the end of this press release for a reconciliation
to the most directly comparable measure in accordance with

RECONCILIATION OF
GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
|
(U.S. Dollars in
thousands)
|
|
The following table
provides a reconciliation of Net loss to Adjusted EBITDA, a
non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is defined
as Net profit (loss) before financial income (expense), net, income
taxes, equity in earnings of investee and depreciation and
amortization,
further adjusted to exclude share-based compensation and change in
fair value of Forfeiture Shares, which may vary
from period-to-period.
We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our
definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar
measures disclosed by other issuers, because not all issuers
calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner. Adjusted EBITDA
should
not be considered as an alternative to Net loss or any other
performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an
alternative
to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our
liquidity.
|
Although we provide
guidance for Adjusted EBITDA, we are not able to provide guidance
for projected Net profit (loss), the most directly
comparable GAAP measures. Certain elements of Net profit (loss),
including share-based compensation expenses and warrant
valuations,
are not predictable due to the high variability and difficulty of
making accurate forecasts. As a result, it is impractical for us to
provide
guidance on Net profit (loss) or to reconcile our Adjusted
EBITDA guidance without unreasonable efforts. Consequently, no
disclosure
of projected Net profit (loss) is included. For the same
reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the
unavailable information.
