Exhibit 99.1
MicroVision Announces Third Quarter 2021 Results
REDMOND, Wash., October 28, 2021 MicroVision, Inc. (NASDAQ: MVIS), a leader in MEMS based solid state automotive lidar and micro-display technology for augmented reality, today announced its third quarter 2021 results.
Revenue for the third quarter of 2021 was $0.7 million, compared to $0.6 million for the third quarter of 2020. MicroVisions net loss for the third quarter of 2021 was $9.4 million, or $0.06 per share, which includes $2.8 million of non-cash, share-based compensation expense, compared to a net loss of $2.8 million, or $0.02 per share, which includes $0.5 million of non-cash, share-based compensation expense, for the third quarter of 2020. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2021 was negative $6.2 million, compared to negative $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2020.
Cash used in operations in the third quarter of 2021 was $10.0 million, compared to cash used in operations in the third quarter of 2020 of $3.5 million. The Company ended the third quarter of 2021 with $125.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $16.9 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2020.
Following our participation in the IAA Mobility Show in Munich, Germany last month, I remain confident that we are on the right path, said Sumit Sharma, MicroVisions Chief Executive Officer. Weve received very encouraging feedback from potential customers citing, in particular, the low cost and compact size of our automotive lidar sensor, the maturity of MicroVisions core technology, and our software capabilities, leading to a number of requests for additional information and proposals from OEMs. With this positive response, combined with our healthy balance sheet and talented team, I remain bullish on MicroVisions ability to succeed in the evolving ADAS and autonomous driving market.

Non-GAAP information
To supplement MicroVisions condensed financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company presents investors with the non-GAAP financial measure adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA consists of GAAP net income (loss) excluding the impact of the following: interest income and interest expense; income tax expense; depreciation and amortization; and share-based compensation.
MicroVision believes that the presentation of adjusted EBITDA provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends, provides consistency and comparability with MicroVisions past financial reports, and facilitates comparisons with other companies in the Companys industry, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. Internally, management uses this non-GAAP measure when evaluating operating performance because the exclusion of the items described above provides an additional useful measure of the Companys operating results and facilitates comparisons of the Companys core operating performance against prior periods and its business objectives. Externally, the Company believes that adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in their assessment of MicroVisions operating performance and the valuation of the Company.
Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, and should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of MicroVisions business as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company expects to continue to incur expenses similar to the non-GAAP adjustments described above, and exclusion of these items from its non-GAAP financial measure should not be construed as an inference that these costs are unusual or infrequent. The Company compensates for limitations of the measure by prominently disclosing GAAP net income (loss), which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and providing investors with a reconciliation from GAAP net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA.
MicroVision has included a reconciliation of GAAP net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA for the relevant periods in the financial tables of its earnings press release, which is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
