    Foresight Announces Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

    19.08.2022 / 22:05
    The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.


    Foresight Autonomous Holdings Ltd., an innovator in automotive vision systems (Nasdaq and TASE: FRSX) (“Foresight”), today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2022. Foresight ended the first half of 2022 with revenues of $248,000 and with $35.6 million in cash, cash equivalent, restricted cash and short-term deposits.

    The Company reported a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) net loss of $10.1 million and a non-GAAP net loss of $9.7 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to a GAAP net loss of $3.2 million and a non-GAAP net loss of $2.7 million for the second quarter of 2021, reflecting an increase of 216% and 259%, respectively, resulting mainly from revaluation of the Company’s investment in Rail Vision Ltd (Nasdaq: RVSN) ("Rail Vision") to its fair value, after Rail Vision's initial public offering in April 2022 .

    “Foresight’s performance in the second quarter of 2022 was focused on demonstrating the broad viability of our stereoscopic vision technology for autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicle applications. We believe that the agreements we signed with leading Tier One suppliers, ZF North America Inc. and Hitachi Astemo Americas Inc., as well as the progress made with Elbit Systems Ltd. mark a significant milestone in our sales cycle, as we move forward from proof of concept (POC) projects to a co-development stage, getting us closer to the design win stage in which we aim to win a contract for mass production,” said Haim Siboni, Foresight’s CEO.

    "Our key business achievements reveal significant interest across markets, industries and geographies. During the second quarter, Foresight signed agreements with multiple Tier One suppliers for passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, industrial technology, unmanned vehicles and vehicle-control systems. We believe that this diversity is a solid indication of the breadth and depth of Foresight’s total addressable market, and we expect to see continued interest in the second half of 2022 from industries including defense, transportation and agriculture.”

    Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

    • Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 amounted to $213,000. We did not generate revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The revenues were generated from a successful completion of several milestones in of the customization project with Elbit Systems Ltd. (Nasdaq: ELBT) in the amount of $188,000, and from a completion of the first milestone of a POC project with a leading tier one supplier in the amount of $25,000.
    • Research and development (R&D) expenses, net for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $2,806,000, compared to $2,436,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase is attributed mainly to an increase in payroll and related expenses in the amount of $439,000. R&D expenses in the second quarter of 2022 were offset by participation from the European Horizon 2020 program in the amount of $89,000.
    • Marketing and sales (S&M) expenses, net for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $605,000, compared to $489,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase is attributed mainly to an increase in exhibitions, conventions and travel expenses in the amount of $85,000.
    • General and administrative (G&A) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $837,000, compared to $812,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
    • Finance expenses, net for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $5,991,000, compared to finance income, net of $574,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease is mainly attributed to expenses from the revaluation of the Company’s investment in Rail Vision to its fair value following its initial public offering on Nasdaq, in the amount of $5,588,000 and by exchange rate differences and other expenses in the amount of $403,000.
    • GAAP net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $10,116,000, or $0.03 per ordinary share, compared to a GAAP net loss of $3,163,000, or $0.01 per ordinary share, for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
    • Non-GAAP net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $9,663,000, or $0.03 per ordinary share, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $2,661,000, or $0.01 per ordinary share, in the same quarter last year. A reconciliation between GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss is provided in the financial statements that are part of this release.

    Balance Sheet Highlights

    • Cash, restricted cash and short-term deposits totaled $35.6 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $45.7 million as of December 31, 2021.
    • GAAP shareholders’ equity totaled $37.4 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $48.6 million as of December 31, 2021. The decrease is attributed mainly to the net loss for the period.

    Second Quarter Corporate Highlights:

    • Foresight Collaborates with Chinese Tier One Supplier SUNWAY-AI on Product Development: In May, Foresight signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with SUNWAY-AI Technology Co., a global Chinese manufacturer of autonomous and unmanned intelligent vehicle products. According to the MOU, Foresight and SUNWAY-AI will establish a joint development program for an obstacle detection system for unmanned vehicles. The obstacle detection system will integrate Foresight’s stereoscopic technology using both thermal and visible light cameras. The MOU follows the successful completion of a POC project in January of this year.
    • Elbit Reveals Unmanned Robotic Combat Vehicle Integrated with Foresight Technology: At Eurosatory, the world’s leading land and airland defense and security exhibition, Elbit Systems, in collaboration with the Israeli Defense Forces, revealed a prototype of its new unmanned robotic combat vehicle equipped with Foresight’s QuadSight vision system. Foresight’s stereo-camera solution supports obstacle detection, terrain analysis and navigation plans in challenging conditions, including off-road driving and zero-visibility sandstorms. The Eurosatory exhibition drew more than 100,000 visitors from around the world.
    • Foresight Announces Joint Proof-of-Concept with Top Tier One Supplier ZF North America: In June, Foresight announced the signing of a joint paid POC project with ZF North America, a subsidiary of ZF Friedrichshafen AG (ZF). ZF is one of the world’s largest Tier One technology companies supplying systems for passenger cars, commercial vehicles and industrial technology. The POC project follows Foresight’s victory in the ZF Pitch Event held at the 2022 CES exhibition in January of this year.
    • Foresight Signs Agreement with Hitachi Astemo Americas: In late June, Foresight announced an agreement with Hitachi Astemo Americas, a global Japanese Tier One supplier of engine management, electric powertrain and integrated vehicle-control systems for the automotive industry. Per the agreement, Hitachi Astemo will conduct a paid joint POC project to test Foresight’s QuadSight and Mono2Stereo technologies together with Hitachi Astemo’s existing camera systems for distance measurement and object detection in simulated and real-life autonomous driving scenarios. The joint POC follows the successful evaluation of a QuadSight vision system prototype in 2021.
    • Foresight Participates in Virtual Events: During the second quarter, Foresight hosted and participated in multiple virtual events, drawing diverse investor attention to the company’s solutions for autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicles. In late March, Foresight presented and participated in a panel discussion at the Maxim Group Virtual Growth Conference. In May, Foresight hosted a virtual investor webinar on market trends and solutions for the autonomous and semi-autonomous era. Foresight also presented at the Sidoti Summer Small Cap Virtual Conference in June.

    Use of Non-GAAP Financial Results

    In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the company's earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures of net loss for the period that exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expenses. The company’s management believes the non-GAAP financial information provided in this release is useful to investors’ understanding and assessment of the company's ongoing operations. Management also uses both GAAP and non-GAAP information in evaluating and operating business internally and as such deemed it important to provide all this information to investors. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the company should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. Reconciliations between GAAP measures and non-GAAP measures are provided later in this press release.
