Innoviz Q4 Revenue $12.67M, Below Consensus
Reports Q4 revenue $12.67M, consensus $15M. "2025 was a pivotal year for Innoviz financially and operationally. We more than doubled our revenues, delivered record gross margins, and significantly expanded programs and addressable end-markets. As the world shifts from Digital AI to Physical AI, Innoviz is firmly positioned to enable perception through its industry-leading LiDAR technology. Our program wins and our lineup of products spanning automotive and non-automotive use cases have created powerful momentum entering 2026, positioning us to accelerate growth, deepen customer partnerships, and further expand our leadership," said Omer Keilaf, CEO and Co-Founder of Innoviz. "Heading into 2026, we are advancing on our Level 3 programs with the VW group and Mobileye, and on our Level 4 programs with Daimler Truck, Mobileye, VW and others. We see strong and growing interest in Level 3 and Level 4 programs from global OEMs. To support these efforts, we have introduced the InnovizThree, designed specifically to meet the challenges of behind-the-windshield installation with a smaller form factor and lower power consumption; when combined with a camera, it also simplifies sensor fusion and integration. Outside the automotive space, our InnovizSMART is gaining traction in areas such as security, mobility, and ITS, and we recently announced the installation of several InnovizSMART Perimeter Security Solutions. Additionally, our InnovizSMARTer, which integrates our LiDAR with an Nvidia processor, delivers a comprehensive one-box solution that enables compression at the edge and wireless deployment in bandwidth-constrained environments. As we continue to ramp production, we believe we are well-positioned to become one of the world's premier large-scale suppliers of best-in-class LiDAR solutions for autonomous driving and broader sensing applications, enabling the rise of Physical AI."
