1. MANAGEMENT'S STATEMENT

1. MANAGEMENT’S STATEMENT

The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2023, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, have been prepared by MicroVision, Inc. (“we” or “our”) and have not been audited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to state fairly the financial position at June 30, 2023 and the results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made and consist of normal recurring adjustments. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. You should read these Condensed Consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be attained for the entire fiscal year.

We are developing lidar sensors and perception software to address the needs of the Level 2+, or L2+, and Level 3 or L3, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) markets to be used in automotive safety and autonomous driving applications. Our micro-electromechanical systems, or MEMS-based high-speed lidar sensors, which we call MAVIN™, use our pioneering laser beam scanning (LBS) technology. Our solution-based development approach recognizes two key realities of the L2+ and L3 markets: that safety is mission critical and that OEMs require cost efficiency and integration adaptability. With these factors in mind, we believe that our best-in-class MAVIN lidar sensors support critical safety needs by providing the highest resolution at range and velocity of moving objects with a dynamic field of view while running at 30 hertz, thus enabling ADAS features, such as automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, and automatic emergency steering, at higher speeds of operation than most competing products.

We completed the acquisition of Ibeo Automotive Systems GmbH (“Ibeo”) assets on January 31, 2023 pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated December 1, 2022, and amended as of January 31, 2023, by and between our wholly owned subsidiary, MicroVision GmbH organized under the laws of The Federal Republic of Germany, and Ibeo for a purchase price of EUR 15.0 million, or approximately $16.3 million, subject to potential reduction on the terms set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the purchase price also included advanced funds to Ibeo so that it could continue its operations while in insolvency during the period between signing and closing. Specifically, we advanced to Ibeo EUR 3.9 million, or approximately $4.1 million in December 2022; EUR 2.7 million, or approximately $3.0 million in January 2023; and EUR 599,000, or approximately $650,000 in February 2023 shortly after the closing. These fund advances included amounts related to headcount reductions carried out by Ibeo management, decreasing the number of employees to transfer in connection with the acquisition to approximately 250 employees. These headcount reduction costs of EUR 2.3 million, or approximately $2.5 million, were reimbursed to MicroVision by way of deduction from the purchase price in accordance with the Asset Purchase Agreement.

We have incurred significant losses since inception. We have funded our operations to date primarily through the sale of common stock, convertible preferred stock, warrants, the issuance of convertible debt and, to a lesser extent, from development contract revenues, product sales and licensing activities.

At June 30, 2023, we had total liquidity of $93.9 million including $62.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and $31.6 million in short-term investment securities. Based on our current operating plan, we anticipate that we have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MicroVision, Inc. and MicroVision GmbH. MicroVision GmbH is a wholly owned subsidiary of MicroVision, Inc. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency for our German operation is the Euro, which represents the currency of its primary economic environment. The results of operations for the German operation are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates during each period. All assets and liabilities are translated using exchange rates at the end of each period, with foreign currency translation adjustments included as a component of other comprehensive loss. All equity transactions and certain assets are translated using historical rates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars.

Segment Information

We determine operating segments based on how our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) manages the business, makes operating decisions around the allocation of resources, and evaluates operating performance. Our CODM is our Executive Management team, who reviews our operating results on a consolidated basis. We operate as one segment, which relates to sale and servicing of lidar hardware and software. The profitability of our product group is not a determining factor in allocating resources and the CODM does not evaluate profitability below the level of the consolidated company.
