JERUSALEM — (BUSINESS WIRE) — July 27, 2023 — Mobileye Global Inc. (Nasdaq: MBLY) (“Mobileye”) today released its financial results for the three months ended July 1, 2023.
“The business again performed well in Q2. Operating margin improved as compared to the first quarter of 2023 despite relatively consistent revenue and we’re positioned well for the increased revenue growth in the 2nd half of 2023 indicated by our guidance,” said Mobileye President and CEO Prof. Amnon Shashua. “Future business highlights of the quarter included tangible evidence of the depth of our relationship with VW Group and an expansion of meaningful engagements for our advanced portfolio to 9 large OEMs. VW Group’s engagement across our entire product portfolio is quite encouraging as it underlines the scalability and flexibility of Mobileye’s technology platform and is a template we are pursuing with other key customers.”
Second Quarter 2023 Business Highlights
- Overall business development pipeline activity remained robust in the quarter. Based on design wins achieved in the first half of 2023 and the current opportunity pipeline, we are on-track for 2023 to match or exceed the record design win activity generated in 2022 on a volume, revenue, and average system price basis1.
- We continued to expand on our Basic ADAS leadership position including a design win with a key customer that extended our relationship through 2035 (including meaningful Cloud-Enhanced ADAS volumes). Additionally, we leveraged our computer vision expertise and massive video database to achieve European certification of the first vision-only solution for use by OEMs to efficiently comply with the European General Safety Regulation (GSR) for Intelligent Speed Assist.
- Our first major SuperVision design win beyond Geely Automotive Group was announced by Porsche during Q2 and we see excellent potential for similarly timed launches across other VW Group brands. Additionally, VW of America announced a testing program of Mobileye Drive-equipped VW ID.Buzz vehicles in Austin, Texas after only months of development and integration activity.
- Near-term SuperVision launches remain on-track and we expect to have SuperVision equipped on 5 production vehicle models (including 2 models sold outside of China) by the first quarter of 2024 as compared to 1 vehicle model at the beginning of 2023. Additionally, the software roll-out of Navigate-on-Pilot functions for Zeekr vehicles is proceeding well and garnering accolades from key China media influencers, particularly for its assertive, efficient driving style.

- Revenue of $454 million decreased 1% compared to the second quarter of 2022. As noted on our prior earnings call, de-stocking of SuperVision units at our main customer was a headwind in the quarter.
- Average System Price 2 was $51.7 in the second quarter of 2023, which is largely flat on a year-over-year basis. Slightly higher core EyeQ prices were offset by slightly lower SuperVision volumes as a percentage of overall revenue.
- Gross Margin in the second quarter of 2023 was largely consistent with the prior year period, as the downward impact of the increased cost of our EyeQ® chip (and associated price increase to customers), was mostly offset by lower impact of the cost attributable to amortization of intangible assets as a percentage of revenue.
- Adjusted Gross Margin declined by 3 percentage points in the second quarter of 2023 as compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to the increased cost of our EyeQ® chip which was passed through as a price increase to customers as of the beginning of 2023 on a zero-margin basis.
- Operating Margin declined by approximately 9 percentage points in the second quarter of 2023 as compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in research and development expenses which resulted in a year-over-year increase in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue.
- Adjusted Operating Margin declined by approximately 9 percentage points in the second quarter of 2023 as compared to the prior year period. The decrease was mainly due to an increase in research and development expenses attributable to headcount, as well as lower Adjusted Gross Margin.
- Operating cash flow for the six months ended July 1, 2023 was $197 million. This included significant outflows related to re-building our strategic inventory of EyeQ chips which had been significantly reduced during the semiconductor supply chain crisis in 2021 and 2022. Cash used in purchases of property and equipment was $58 million for that same period.
