| NOTE 2:- | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) |
|---|---|
| There have been no changes to the significant accounting policies described in the 2021 Annual Report that have had a material impact on the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes, except as mentioned below (see also Note 2e). | |
| --- | |
| c. | Use of estimates: |
| --- | --- |
| The preparation of interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the interim consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. | |
| Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include inventory reserves, warranty provision, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, share-based compensation including the fair value of the Company’s ordinary shares before the Company became public, fair value of warrants liability and useful lives of property, plant, and equipment. The Company bases these estimates on historical and anticipated results, trends and various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. Actual results could differ from those estimates.<br><br> <br><br><br> <br>The novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic has created, and may continue to create, significant uncertainty in macroeconomic conditions, and the extent of its impact on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and the impact on the Company’s customers. The Company considered the impact of COVID-19 on the estimates and assumptions and determined that there were no material adverse impacts on the interim consolidated financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2022. As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, the Company’s estimates and assumptions may change materially in future periods. | |
| d. | Concentration of credit risk: |
| --- | --- |
| Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, marketable securities, bank deposits, restricted deposits and restricted cash. | |
| Trade receivable of the Company are mainly derived from customers located globally. The Company mitigates its credit risks by performing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions and requires customer advance payments in certain circumstances. The Company generally does not require collateral.<br><br> <br>The Company invests in marketable securities with an average credit rating of “A” and a maturity of up to three years. The Company’s investment policy is not to invest more than 5% of its investment portfolio in a single security. |

| NOTE 2:- | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) |

| e. | Recently adopted accounting pronouncement: |
| --- | --- |
| On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)", using the modified retrospective method by applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. Results and disclosure requirements for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2022 are presented under Topic 842, while prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historical accounting under Topic 840. The Company has elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allows the Company not to reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts as of the adoption date are or contain a lease, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date. The Company elected to not recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use ("ROU") asset for leases with a term of twelve months or less. Lease payments on short-term leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, not included in lease liabilities. Lastly, the Company also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for its leases. | |
| --- | |
| The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease and the classification of that lease at inception based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether the Company obtains the right to substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether the Company has a right to direct the use of the asset. | |
| ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make minimum lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets are initially measured at amounts, which represents the discounted present value of the lease payments over the lease, plus any initial direct costs incurred. The lease liability is initially measured at lease commencement date based on the discounted present value of minimum lease payments over the lease term. The implicit rate within the operating leases is generally not determinable, therefore the Company uses its Incremental Borrowing Rate ("IBR") based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company's IBR is estimated to approximate the interest rate for collateralized borrowing with similar terms and payments and in economic environments where the leased asset is located. Certain leases include options to extend or terminate the lease. An option to extend the lease is considered in connection with determining the ROU asset and lease liability when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. An option to terminate is considered unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will not exercise the option. | |
| The adoption of this standard had a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. The most significant impact is reflected in: (i) effective as of January 1, 2022, the recognition of $29 million ROU assets and lease liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet for its operating leases of real estate, with no impact on retained earnings, (ii) the Company’s financial income (expenses), net which is impacted by foreign exchange gain and losses arising from its non U.S. Dollars denominated lease liabilities, and (iii) the requirement to provide significant new disclosures regarding the Company’s leasing activities and to enable users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The adoption of this standard does not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated statements cash flows. | |
| For further information on the Company’s leasing activities see Note 5. |

| NOTE 4:- | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Cont.) |
|---|---|
| (1) | As part of the Transactions (see Note 1c), the Company assumed a derivative warrants liability related to previously issued private placement warrants in connection with Collective Growth’s initial public offering. The Company utilizes a Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of the private placement warrants which is considered a Level 3 fair value measurement. The warrants are measured at each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized in financing income, net. |
| --- | --- |
The change in the fair value of the derivative private warrants liability is summarized as follows:
| Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||

| Reclassification of warrants liability to equity | (15 | ) | - | ||
| Balance as of June 30 | $ | 835 | $ | 8,136 |
The estimated fair value of the private placement warrant derivative liabilities is determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in a Black-Scholes option pricing model are assumptions related to expected share price volatility, expiration, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimates the volatility of its private warrants based on implied volatility of the publicly traded warrants and the historical volatility of the company’s share price and of a selected peer companies that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve as of the valuation date for a maturity similar to the expiration of the warrants. The dividend yield is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates remaining at zero. The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurements inputs as their measurement dates:

Overview
We are a leading provider of high-performance, solid-state LiDAR and perception solutions that bring enhanced vision and superior performance to enable safe autonomous driving at a mass scale. We believe that we provide a complete and comprehensive solution for OEMs and Tier-1 partners that are developing and marketing autonomous driving vehicles to the passenger car and other relevant markets, such as robotaxis, shuttles, delivery vehicles, buses trucking, and other industries that require 3-dimensional high-resolution sensors. Our unique LiDAR and perception solutions, feature technological breakthroughs across core components. In addition, our solutions can enable safe autonomy for other industries, including drones, robotics, construction and other industrial applications, agriculture, smart city, smart infrastructures, security and mapping.
We created a new type of LiDAR sensor from the chip-level up, including a suite of powerful and sophisticated software applications for high-performance computer vision to allow superior perception. We have a design win from 2018, to power BMW’s Level 3 autonomous platform.
In addition, we were recently selected by CARIAD SE to be its direct LiDAR supplier for the segment of Automated Vehicles within the Volkswagen brands. The selection, our third major design win, followed more than two years of extensive diligence and qualification.
Business Combination
On December 10, 2020, Innoviz entered into the Business Combination Agreement with Collective Growth Corporation, Perception Capital Partners LLC, Antara Capital LP and Hatzata Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Collective Growth Corporation, with Collective Growth Corporation surviving the merger (the “Business Combination”). Upon consummation of the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement on April 5, 2021, Collective Growth Corporation became a wholly owned subsidiary of Innoviz.
COVID-19 Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic has created and continues to create delays in obtaining materials and components from our suppliers located in different parts of the world which have, in some instances, led to delays in the delivery of our products and have increased the time needed to build our equipment. In addition, we may face increased costs related to delays in production due to supplier and manufacturer delays.
Our executive offices and research and development and manufacturing locations have been, and may continue to be, impacted due to national and regional government declarations requiring closures, quarantines and travel restrictions, mainly in China and Japan. The COVID-19 pandemic is also adversely affecting our customers’ business operations. The extent of the continued impact of the coronavirus pandemic on our operational and financial performance will depend on various future developments, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers, suppliers, contract manufacturers and employees, all of which is uncertain at this time. We expect the COVID-19 pandemic to adversely impact our revenue and results of operations but are unable to predict at this time the size and duration of this adverse impact.

We are exposed to a variety of risks, including foreign currency exchange fluctuations, changes in interest rates and inflation. We regularly assess currency, interest rate and inflation risks to minimize any adverse effects on our business as a result of those factors.
Foreign Currency Risk
Our financial results are reported in USD, and changes in the exchange rate between USD and local currencies in those countries in which we operate (primarily the ILS) may affect the results of our operations. In the six months ended June 30, 2022, approximately 94% of our revenues were denominated in USD. The USD cost of our operations in countries other than the United States may be negatively influenced by devaluation of the USD against other currencies.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the value of the USD appreciated against the ILS by approximately 12.5%. Our most significant foreign currency exposures are related to our operations in Israel. The Company hedges its anticipated exposure by exchanging USD into ILS in amounts sufficient to fund 3-4 months of operations and monitors foreign currency exchange rates over time.
Interest Rate Risk
Our investment strategy is to achieve a return that will allow us to preserve capital and meet our liquidity requirements. We invest in bank deposits and marketable securities, mainly in USD.
Our cash and cash equivalents are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rate, which is affected by changes in the general level of the Bank of Israel interest rates and United States Federal Reserve interest rates. Due to the short-term nature and the low-risk profile of our interest-bearing accounts, an immediate 10% change in interest rates would not have a material effect on the fair market value of our cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits and restricted bank deposits or on our financial position or results of operations.
Our investments in marketable securities are primarily in securities with an average credit rating of “A” and a maturity of up to three years. We do not intend to invest more than 5% of our investment portfolio in a single security.
Other Market Risks
We do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our business, financial conditions or results of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Operating Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, operating activities used approximately $50.1 million. The primary factors affecting operating cash flows during the six months ended June 30, 2022 were the net loss of approximately $58.3 million, impacted by non-cash charges of approximately $8.2 million consisting of stock-based compensation of approximately $9.2 million, depreciation and amortization of approximately $4.2 million, partially offset by an increase in working capital of approximately $5.2 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, operating activities used approximately $36.8 million. The primary factors affecting operating cash flows during this period were net loss of approximately $93.2 million, impacted by non-cash charges of approximately $56.4 million consisting of depreciation and amortization of approximately $1.3 million, stock-based compensation of approximately $51.7 million and a decrease in working capital of approximately $3.4 million.
Investing Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash provided by investing activities was approximately $77.4 million, which was primarily from withdrawal of bank deposits of approximately $135.0 million, partially offset by investment in bank deposits of approximately $50.0 million, purchase of property, plant, and equipment of approximately $5.0 million and increase in restricted deposits of approximately $2.6 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, cash provided by investing activities was approximately $197.1 million, which was primarily from investment in bank deposits of approximately $195.0 million and purchase of property, plant, and equipment of approximately $2.1 million.
Financing Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash provided by financing activities was approximately $0.3 million, which was related to exercise of options.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, cash provided by financing activities was approximately $340.4 million, which consisted primarily of issuance of ordinary shares and cash received from reverse capitalization (net of issuance cost).
Funding Requirements
We expect our expenses to gradually increase in connection with our ongoing activities. To the extent and at such time as necessary for our business progress, particularly as we continue research and development activities, commercialization expenses related to product sales, marketing, manufacturing and distribution, such expenses may increase. In the event of significant business progress, we may need to obtain additional funding in connection with our continuing operations. If we are unable to raise capital when and if needed or on attractive terms, we could be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate some of our research and development programs or future commercialization efforts.
As of June 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents, short term bank deposits and marketable securities of approximately $245.2 million. We expect those funds to be sufficient to continue to execute our business plan for at least the next 12 months.
We also expect our losses to be significantly higher in future periods as we:
| • | expand production capabilities to produce our LiDAR solutions, and accordingly incur costs associated with outsourcing the production of our LiDAR solutions; |
|---|---|
| • | expand our design, development, installation and servicing capabilities; |
| --- | --- |
| • | increase our investment in research and development; |
| --- | --- |
| • | produce an inventory of our LiDAR solutions; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | increase our selling and marketing activities and develop our distribution infrastructure. |
| --- | --- |
Because we will incur costs and expenses from these efforts before we receive incremental revenues with respect thereto, losses in future periods will be significant. In addition, we may find that these efforts are more expensive than we currently anticipate or that these efforts may not result in revenues, which would further increase our losses.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company’s remaining performance obligations are comprised of product and engineering services not yet satisfied. As of June 30, 2022, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $10.2 million, which we expect to recognize as revenue in future years.
Other than as set forth above, we have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements and do not have any holdings in variable interest entities.
