JERUSALEM — (BUSINESS WIRE) — January 24, 2024 — Mobileye Global Inc. (Nasdaq: MBLY) (“Mobileye”) today released its financial results for the three months and for the year ended December 30, 2023.

“Our fourth quarter performance was very strong across the board but is understandably overshadowed by the inventory build-up at our customers which will impact our growth in 2024. We believe we have high visibility to the first quarter results, a very meaningful improvement in Q2 revenue and normalization of revenue in the second half of 2024, and are focused on executing that,” said Mobileye President and CEO Prof. Amnon Shashua. “From a business development and strategy perspective, 2023 was an extremely successful year across many fronts. We achieved design wins projected at $7 billion of incremental future estimated revenue for a second consecutive year, at elevated ASP, remarkable relative to the $2-$3 billion in 2021. We expanded the vehicle model pipeline for SuperVision and Chauffeur from 9 to approximately 30, and won our most significant advanced product program to date with a major global western OEM that we expect will not only generate multiple billions of future revenue, but also be an important endorsement in front of other customers. Further, over the course of 2023, Chauffeur went from zero OEM production programs to 3 awards across multiple models. Finally, the introduction of Driving Experience Platform (DXP) is proving to be in the sweet spot of OEM make vs buy decisions, enabling the OEM to control the driving experience while leveraging Mobileye’s efficient silicon and proven sensing, mapping, and decision-making software.”

Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2023 Business Highlights

• Business development activity was very robust in 2023, as the large acceleration of future business generation experienced in 2022 continued. As disclosed in our CES 2024 presentation, projected future revenue from design wins achieved in 2023 totaled $7.4 billion across 61 million incremental units. This is more than 3.5x the revenue we generated in 2023.¹
• We continue to execute very well in our core ADAS business, as we launched systems into approximately 300 distinct vehicle models in 2023. Our future business pipeline of Cloud-Enhanced ADAS volume and associated REM™ recurring revenue licenses grew significantly as a result of new program awards and expansion of existing programs to additional vehicle platforms. The next-generation core ADAS chip, EyeQ™6L, remains on-track for first customer production launches in Q2 2024.
• 2023 was a very successful year for SuperVision™. Shipments were slightly above 100,000 units in 2023. On the execution side, we delivered to Zeekr consumers the full SuperVision features for highway and arterial roads in August 2023 and expanded to 22 cities by year-end as compared to 2 cities at launch. Additionally, we generated substantial new business awards for this product. We now have 4 vehicle models in production and a total of approximately 30 models in the future launch pipeline as compared to 1 vehicle in production and 9 models in the future launch pipeline at the start of 2023. This expansion was supported by design wins with Porsche, FAW, Mahindra, and a large global western OEM over the course of 2023.
• The business pipeline for Chauffeur™ took a leap forward in 2023 as we achieved our first set of production program awards with Polestar, FAW, and a major global western OEM. The favorable view of Chauffeur eyes-off technology by automakers is based on two key factors: 1) Chauffeur adds “buying your time back” as an additional value proposition on top of the safety and convenience benefits of SuperVision; and 2) the sharing of tech building blocks between SuperVision and Chauffeur creates a scalable bridge from one to the other, significantly lowering the investment needs and raising the probability of success for a consumer AV product. As announced at CES, we now project 600,000 units of future Chauffeur volume based only on design wins announced to date.
• We have made significant progress in building a robust ESG program as an independent company. After substantial benchmarking, scoping, and data collection activities over the course of 2023, we are on track to publish our first Corporate Sustainability Report as an independent company during 2024.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Summary and Key Highlights (Unaudited)

• Revenue of $637 million increased 13% as compared to fourth quarter of 2022. EyeQ SoC related revenue grew 16% in the quarter.
• Average System Price² was $52.7 in fourth quarter 2023, compared to $56.2 in the prior year period. While SuperVision shipments were roughly flat as compared to Q4 2022, SuperVision revenue as a percentage of total revenue was lower due to growth in the EyeQ SoC business, resulting in a modest decline in ASP.
• Gross Margin increased by nearly 1 percentage point in the fourth quarter of 2023 as compared to the prior year period. The impact of the lower cost attributable to amortization of intangible assets as a percentage of revenue was partially offset by the downward impact of the increased cost of our EyeQ SoCs (and associated price increase to customers).
• Adjusted Gross Margin (a non-GAAP measure) declined by 5 percentage points in the fourth quarter 2023 as compared to the prior year period. The year over year decrease was primarily due to downward impact of the increased cost of our EyeQ SoCs (and associated price increase to customers).
• Operating Margin increased by over 7 percentage points on a year over year basis. The increase was driven primarily by the cost attributable to amortization of intangible assets and stock based compensation as a percentage of revenue which was lower in Q4 2023 as compared to the prior year period.
• Adjusted Operating Margin (a non-GAAP measure) was up slightly in the fourth quarter 2023 as compared to the prior year period. Adjusted gross margin declined as explained above. This was fully offset by operating expenses which were relatively consistent on a year over year basis but down substantially as a percentage of revenue in Q4 2023. Our R&D growth plans remained intact but a year-over-year decline in the USD / Israel Shekel conversion rate and reimbursements related to employees on military reserve duty offset spending growth related to headcount and other R&D activities.
• Operating cash flow for the year ended December 30, 2023 was $394 million. Purchases of property and equipment was $98 million for that same period.

¹ Mobileye’s revenue for the periods presented represent estimated volumes based on projections of future production volumes that were provided by our current and prospective customers at the time of sourcing the design wins for the models related to those design wins. See the disclaimer under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements” below for important limitations applicable to these estimates.

² Average System Price is calculated as the sum of revenue related to EyeQ and SuperVision systems, divided by the number of systems shipped.

Financial Guidance for the 2024 Fiscal Year

The following information reflects Mobileye’s expectations for Revenue, Operating Loss and Adjusted Operating Income results for the year ending December 28, 2024. The following information reaffirms the preliminary financial outlook for the 2024 fiscal year that we disclosed in our January 4th, 2024 press release.

We believe Adjusted Operating Income (a non-GAAP metric) is an appropriate metric as it excludes significant non-cash expenses including: 1) Amortization charges related to intangible assets consisting of developed technology, customer relationships and brands as a result of Intel’s acquisition of Mobileye in 2017 and the acquisition of Moovit in 2020; and, 2) Stock-based compensation expense. These statements represent forward-looking information and may not represent a financial outlook, and actual results may vary. Please see the risks and assumptions referred to in the Forward-Looking Statements section of this release.

Earnings Conference Call Webcast Information

Mobileye will host a conference call today, January 25, 2024, at 8:00am ET (3:00pm IT) to review its results and provide a general business update. The conference call will be accessible live via a webcast on Mobileye’s investor relations site, which can be found at ir.mobileye.com, and a replay of the webcast will be made available shortly after the event’s conclusion.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains Adjusted Gross Profit and Margin, Adjusted Operating Income and Margin, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS, which are financial measures not presented in accordance with GAAP. We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit presented in accordance with GAAP, excluding amortization of acquisition related intangibles and share-based compensation expense. Adjusted Gross Margin is calculated as Adjusted Gross Profit divided by total revenue. We define Adjusted Operating Income as operating loss presented in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude amortization of acquisition related intangibles, share-based compensation expenses and expenses related to our initial public offering that was completed on October 28, 2022, during the year ended December 31, 2022. Operating margin is calculated as Operating Income (Loss) divided by total revenue, and Adjusted Operating Margin is calculated as Adjusted Operating Income divided by total revenue. We define Adjusted Net Income as net loss presented in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude amortization of acquisition related intangibles, share-based compensation expense, and expenses related to our initial public offering that was completed on October 28, 2022, during the year ended December 31, 2022, as well as the related income tax effects. Income tax effects have been calculated using the applicable statutory tax rate for each adjustment taking into consideration the associated valuation allowance impacts. The adjustment for income tax effects consists primarily of the deferred tax impact of the amortization of acquired intangible assets. Adjusted Basic EPS is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Adjusted Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares to the extent they are dilutive.

We use such non-GAAP financial measures to make strategic decisions, establish business plans and forecasts, identify trends affecting our business, and evaluate performance. For example, we use these non-GAAP financial measures to assess our pricing and sourcing strategy, in the preparation of our annual operating budget, and as a measure of our operating performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because they allow for greater transparency into what measures our management uses in operating our business and measuring our performance, and enable comparison of financial trends and results between periods where items may vary independent of business performance. The non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. A reconciliation is provided below for each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations, including Mobileye’s 2024 full-year guidance, projected future revenue and descriptions of our business plan and strategies. These statements often include words such as “anticipate,” “expect,” “suggests,” “plan,” “believe,” “intend,” “estimates,” “targets,” “projects,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “may,” “will,” “forecast,” or the negative of these terms, and other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. We base these forward-looking statements or projections, including Mobileye’s full-year guidance, on our current expectations, plans and assumptions that we have made in light of our experience in the industry, as well as our perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances and at such time. You should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. The forward-looking statements and projections are subject to and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements or projections. Although we believe that these forward-looking statements and projections are based on reasonable assumptions at the time they are made, you should be aware that many factors could affect our actual financial results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements and projections.

Important factors that may materially affect such forward-looking statements and projections include the following: future business, social and environmental performance, goals and measures; our anticipated growth prospects and trends in markets and industries relevant to our business; business and investment plans; expectations about our ability to maintain or enhance our leadership position in the markets in which we participate; future consumer demand and behavior, including expectations about excess inventory utilization by customers; future products and technology, and the expected availability and benefits of such products and technology; development of regulatory frameworks for current and future technology; ​projected cost and pricing trends; ​future production capacity and product supply, potential future benefits and competitive advantages associated with our technologies and architecture and the data we have accumulated; the future purchase, use and availability of products, components and services supplied by third parties, including third-party IP and manufacturing services; uncertain events or assumptions, including statements relating to our addressable markets, estimated vehicle production and market opportunity, potential production volumes associated with design wins and other characterizations of future events or circumstances; future responses to and effects of the COVID-19 pandemic; adverse conditions in Israel, including as a result of war and geopolitical conflict, which may affect our operations and may limit our ability to produce and sell our solutions; any disruption in our operations by the obligations of our personnel to perform military service as a results of current or future military actions involving Israel; availability, uses, sufficiency and cost of capital and capital resources, including expected returns to stockholders such as dividends, and the expected timing of future dividends; tax- and accounting-related expectations.

The estimates included herein are based on projections of future production volumes that were provided by our current and prospective OEMs at the time of sourcing the design wins for the models related to those design wins. For the purpose of these estimates, we estimated sales prices based on our management’s estimates for the applicable product bundles and periods. Achieving design wins is not a guarantee of revenue, and our sales may not correlate with the achievement of additional design wins. Moreover, our pricing estimates are made at the time of a request for quotation by an OEM (in the case of estimates related to contracted customers), so that worsening market or other conditions between the time of a request for quotation and an order for our solutions may require us to sell our solutions for a lower price than we initial expected. These estimates may deviate from actual production volumes and sale prices (which may be higher or lower than the estimates) and the amounts included for prospective but uncontracted production volumes may never be achieved. Accordingly, these estimations are subject to and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements or projections.

Detailed information regarding these and other factors that could affect Mobileye’s business and results is included in Mobileye’s SEC filings, including the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, particularly in the section entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors”. Copies of these filings may be obtained by visiting our Investor Relations website at ir.mobileye.com or the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
