Dow Jones08-06 19:00

TEL AVIV, Israel, Aug. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Arbe Robotics Ltd. (NASDAQ: ARBE) (TASE: ARBE), a global leader in ultra-high-resolution radar solutions, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Recent Highlights

   -- Defense and homeland security deliveries: Arbe's technology was selected 
      by a leading global defense and homeland security system integrator, and 
      the parties signed a framework collaboration agreement covering three 
      joint projects, with plans to expand cooperation into additional 
      initiatives. Arbe has begun deliveries of radar systems directly from its 
      production line, with additional shipments expected as production ramps. 
 
   -- Robotaxi systems with Arbe on the road: Building on the previously 
      reported robotaxi engagements, Arbe's radar systems have been integrated 
      into vehicles that have commenced on-road trials. Arbe continues to be 
      engaged in active bid processes with additional robotaxi players. 
 
   -- Progress in China with HiRain: Arbe's Tier 1 HiRain, a leading supplier 
      offering a portfolio of radar systems based on Arbe's chipset, has 
      advised Arbe that it is progressing toward production, currently planned 
      for the beginning of 2027, delivering on the previously announced order 
      from its L4 OEM customer. HiRain is also competing in meaningful RFIs 
      and RFQs. 
 
   -- Progress with OEMs actively testing advanced radar solutions: Arbe is 
      actively participating in evaluations together with its Tier 1s to 
      replace the OEMs' existing radar technologies. Arbe is regarded as the 
      leading ultra-high-resolution radar provider for L3 and higher autonomy. 
 
   -- Broader radar applications: Sensrad, a Tier 1 supplying imaging radar 
      based on Arbe's chipset for defense and commercial applications, 
      announced a new collaboration with VirtuRail, which is integrating the 
      radar into its automated service vehicles for underground tunnel 
      construction. Arbe continues to supply chipsets to Sensrad, supporting 
      Sensrad's customers Watchit, Forterra, and Tianyi. Arbe is also directly 
      engaged in additional non-automotive programs at various stages of 
      evaluation. 
 
   -- Continued revenue growth: Arbe's new strategy of focusing on broader 
      markets with more immediate revenue potential delivered results. Revenue 
      growth in the quarter was due to increased chipset sales to automotive 
      Tier 1s, radar system sales for defense and civilian programs, and 
      ongoing engineering and development services. 
 
   -- Efficiency measures: At the same time, Arbe is focused on maintaining a 
      low expense footprint and more efficient operations. The full impact of 
      the approximately 15% expense reduction initiated in the first quarter of 
      2026 is expected to be reflected in the third quarter of 2026. Management 
      believes that the current balance sheet, with around $42 million in cash, 
      cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits, combined with ongoing 
      revenue growth and a targeted reduction in cash burn to below $7 million 
      per quarter, extends the Company's cash runway to execute on its 
      growth plans. 

Management Comments

Kobi Marenko, President and Co-Founder of Arbe, commented, "We are pleased with our performance in the second quarter, making solid progress. In automotive, our radar systems are now installed in robotaxi vehicles that have begun on-road trials. In defense and homeland security, we have started delivering systems that have been successfully field-tested. We see strong demand, with customers and potential customers requiring our radar solutions for immediate needs."

Ram Machness, Chief Executive Officer of Arbe, commented, "Our strategy of diversifying sales into new markets with immediate needs and shorter sales cycles is paying off, reflected in a clear revenue growth trend. Growth in the quarter came from our expanding customer base across automotive, defense, and civilian programs. We believe that these sales are evidence that our transition from a chipset supplier to a complete radar technology provider is opening up new and diversified markets for us with revenue potential in both the short and long-term."

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results Highlights

Revenues for Q2 2026 were $0.7 million, compared to $0.3 million in Q2 2025. Backlog as of June 30, 2026, amounted to $1 million.

Gross loss for Q2 2026 was around $0, compared to a gross loss of $0.2 million in Q2 2025.

Operating expenses in Q2 2026 were $9.8 million, compared to $11.3 million in Q2 2025.

The lower expenses were primarily driven by lower share-based compensation expenses, reflecting both the lower grant-date fair values of equity awards issued during the period and the ongoing vesting of previously granted awards, some of which have now fully vested. The increased expenses due to the unfavorable exchange rate impact, was offset by a decrease in headcount as part of the cost-reduction measures taken this quarter, which are expected to be fully reflected by next quarter.

Operating loss in Q2 2026 was $9.8 million, compared to an $11.5 million loss in Q2 2025.

Net loss in Q2 2026 was reduced to $9.1 million, compared to a net loss of $10.2 million in Q2 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA for Q2 2026, a non-GAAP measure that excludes expenses for non-cash share-based compensation and non-recurring items, was a loss of $8.7 million, compared with a loss of $8.9 million in Q2 2025. Management believes that this non-GAAP measurement is important in evaluating the Company's use of cash and in planning cash requirements in the coming periods.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity Highlights

As of June 30, 2026, Arbe had $41.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits.

As of June 30, 2026, Arbe had $40.5 million in shareholders' equity.

The Company is in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in the convertible debentures and holds cash substantially above the minimum threshold.

Outlook

Arbe is reaffirming its full-year 2026 outlook provided in February 2026.

Based on current market conditions and customer engagement visibility, the Company's outlook for 2026 is as follows:

   -- Revenue in the range of $4 million to $6 million. 
 
   -- Adjusted EBITDA for 2026 is projected to be a loss in the range of $28 
      million to $31 million, reflecting the Company's strengthened balance 
      sheet and cost-reduction measures. 

This outlook reflects management's current expectations as of today and is subject to change based on market conditions, customer adoption timelines, and other factors.

Arbe expects to continue signing additional automotive OEM design wins over time, beyond the recently announced design win. However, the timing of future wins remains dependent on OEM adoption cycles, which are taking longer than previously anticipated. As a result, the Company is not providing guidance on the timing of additional automotive OEM design wins.
