Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

MicroVision, Inc. (“MicroVision” or “the Company”) delivers safe mobility at the speed of life through its hardware and software solutions focused primarily on advanced driver-assistance systems (“ADAS”) and autonomous vehicle (“AV”) applications. The Company is a global developer and supplier of light detection and ranging (“lidar”) sensors and perception and validation software. With the acquisition of the experienced team from Ibeo Automative Systems GmbH (“Ibeo”) in January 2023, MicroVision has combined a long history of developing and commercializing the core components of its lidar hardware and related software with experience in automotive-grade qualification.

Liquidity

The Company has incurred significant losses since inception. Operations to date have been funded 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.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had total liquidity of $56.7 million including $26.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and $29.9 million in short-term investment securities. In addition, the Company has approximately $122.6 million availability under its current at-the-market (“ATM”) facility as of June 30, 2024. Based on the current operating plan, the Company anticipates having sufficient cash and cash equivalents to fund operations for at least the next 12 months from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, after elimination of all intercompany balances and transactions. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) and the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information. Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023. The information as of December 31, 2023 included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets was derived from those audited financial statements.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial information for the interim periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024 or for any other future annual or interim period.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts therein. The most significant estimates and assumptions relate to business combinations, valuation of intangibles, revenue recognition, inventory valuation, valuation of share-based payments, income taxes, depreciable lives assessment and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved, actual results reported in future periods could differ from those estimates.

Foreign Currency Translation

Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are a result of the effect of exchange rate changes on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. Realized gains and losses on those foreign currency transactions are included in determining net loss for the period of exchange and are recorded in other income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

***Segment Information ***

The Company determines operating segments based on how the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) manages the business, makes operating decisions around the allocation of resources, and evaluates operating performance. The CODM is the Executive Management team. The Company has determined that it operates in one operating segment and one reportable segment, relating to the sale and servicing of lidar hardware and software, as the CODM regularly reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk are primarily cash, cash equivalents, and investment securities. As of June 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents are comprised of operating checking accounts and short-term highly rated money market savings accounts. Short-term investments are comprised of highly rated corporate bonds and U.S. Treasury securities.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, two customers accounted for 71% and 11% of total revenue, respectively. For the same period in 2023, four customers accounted for 20%,20%,17%, and 16% of total revenue, respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, two customers accounted for 58% and 22% of total revenue, respectively. For the same period in 2023, three customers accounted for 33%,22%, and 11% of total revenue, respectively.

As of June 30, 2024, accounts receivable related to these customers accounted for 80% of total accounts receivable, net of allowances on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Typically, a significant concentration of components and the products sold are manufactured and obtained from single or limited-source suppliers. The loss of any single or limited-source supplier, the failure of any of these suppliers to perform as expected, or the disruption in the supply chain of components from these suppliers could subject the Company to risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, increased cost of sales, possible loss of revenues, or significant delays in product development or product deliveries, any of which could adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and operating results.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07,Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in this update expand annual and interim disclosure requirements for reportable segments, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. All disclosure requirements under this standard will also be required for public entities with a single reportable segment. ASU 2023-07 is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024, and for interim periods beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statement disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09,Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in this update require disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The ASU is expected to result in incremental disclosures to the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-01*Compensation: Stock Compensation (Topic 718).*The amendments in this ASU clarify existing guidance related to profits interest and similar awards. ASU 2024-01 is effective for annual and interim periods for the Company beginning January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU may have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

3. NET LOSS PER SHARE

Basic net loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive effect of all potentially dilutive securities, including common stock equivalents and convertible securities. As the effect of dilutive securities outstanding during the period is anti-dilutive, diluted net loss per share is equal to basic net loss per share.

The components of basic and diluted net loss per share are as follows (in thousands, except loss per share data):

Three Months Ended · Six Months Ended
June 30,June 30,
2024202320242023
Numerator:
Net loss available for common shareholders - basic and diluted$(23,930)$(20,609)$(50,243)$(39,636)
Denominator:

Net loss per share - basic and diluted$(0.11)$(0.12)$(0.25)$(0.23)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the following securities from net loss per share have been excluded as the effect of including them would have been anti-dilutive: outstanding options exercisable into a total of 0.7 million and 0.8 million shares of common stock, respectively, and 12.5 million and 9.6 million nonvested restricted and performance stock units, respectively.

4. BUSINESS COMBINATION

On January 31, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of certain net assets of Ibeo, a lidar hardware and software provider based in Hamburg, Germany. The purpose of the acquisition was to acquire certain Ibeo assets, primarily intellectual property and personnel, which enabled the Company to expand their technology and product portfolio and diversify revenue streams.

Total consideration related to this transaction was approximately EUR 20.0 million or $21.6 million, consisting of approximately (i) EUR 7.0 million or $7.6 million in cash paid at closing, (ii) EUR 6.6 million or $7.1 million in cash advanced to Ibeo prior to closing, (iii) EUR 3.0 million or $3.3 million released from escrow during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, (iv) EUR 0.6 million or $0.7 million in costs paid on behalf of the seller, and (v) EUR 2.7 million or approximately $3.0 million after calculating the deduction in purchase price agreed between both the parties. The remaining balance of approximately EUR 2.7 million was paid during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and was previously recorded as an accrued liability for Ibeo business combination on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. In addition, the Company incurred $0.6 million of acquisition-related costs associated with the acquisition during the three months ended March 31, 2023, which were included in Sales, marketing, general and administrative expense.

The transaction was accounted for as a business combination. The results of operations for the acquisition are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition onwards.

The following table summarizes the final purchase price allocation to assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):

Weighted Average

Total purchase consideration$21,611
Inventory$1,197

Contract liabilities(1,178)
Operating lease liabilities(234)
Deferred tax liabilities(785)
Total identifiable net assets$23,280
Bargain purchase gain(2)(1,669)
(1)During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized a $3.0 million impairment charge on certain identified intangible assets acquired in this business combination. See Note 7. Financial Statement Components.
(2)The bargain purchase gain represents the excess of the fair value of the underlying net assets acquired and liabilities assumed over the purchase consideration and is included in bargain purchase gain, net of tax in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The bargain purchase gain was attributable to the negotiation process with Ibeo during its insolvency proceedings resulting in cash consideration paid being less than the fair value of the net assets acquired.

The estimated fair value of acquired technology was calculated through the income approach using the multi-period excess earnings and relief from royalty methodologies. The estimated fair value of the order backlog was calculated through the income approach using the multi-period excess earnings methodology.

Revenue and net loss from the acquisition included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations through June 30, 2023 is $1.1 million and $15.1 million, respectively.

5. REVENUE RECOGNITION

The following is a description of principal activities from which we generate revenue. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

We evaluate contracts based on the 5-step model as stated in Topic 606 as follows: (i) identify the contract, (ii) identify the performance obligations, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) performance obligations are satisfied.

A contract contains a promise (or promises) to transfer goods or services to a customer. A performance obligation is a promise (or a group of promises) that is distinct, as defined in the revenue standard.

The transaction price is the amount of consideration an entity expects to be entitled to from a customer in exchange for providing the goods or services. A number of factors should be considered to determine the transaction price, including whether there is variable consideration, a significant financing component, noncash consideration, or amounts payable to the customer. The determination of variable consideration will require a significant amount of judgment. In estimating the transaction price we will use either the expected value method or the most likely amount method.

The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations in the contract based on relative standalone selling prices. Determining the relative standalone selling price can be challenging when goods or services are not sold on a standalone basis. The revenue standard sets out several methods that can be used to estimate a standalone selling price when one is not directly observable. Allocating discounts and variable consideration must also be considered. Allocating the transaction price can require significant judgement on our part.

Revenue is recognized when (or as) the customer obtains control of the good or service/performance obligations are satisfied. Topic 606 provides guidance to help determine if a performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time or over time. Where a performance obligation is satisfied over time, the related revenue is also recognized over time.

Contract Balances

Under Topic 606, the Company’s rights to consideration are presented separately depending on whether those rights are conditional or unconditional. Unconditional rights to consideration are included within accounts receivable, net of allowances in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Significant changes in the contract assets and the contract liabilities balances during the period are as follows (in thousands, except percentages):

June 30, · December 31,
20242023$ Change% Change
Contract assets and accounts receivable$1,970$949$1,021107.6%
Contract liabilities(172)(300)128(42.7)%
Net contract assets (liabilities)$1,798$649$1,149177.0

Contract Acquisition Costs

The Company is required to capitalize certain contract acquisition costs consisting primarily of commissions paid when contracts are signed. As the Company currently does not pay any commissions upon the signing of a contract, no commission cost has been incurred as of June 30, 2024.

Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations

The remaining balance of the contract liabilities was approximately $0.2 million as of June 30, 2024. The Company expects to recognize 100% of this revenue over the next 12 months.

6. INVESTMENT SECURITIES, AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Investment securities, available-for-sale is comprised of corporate and government debt securities. The principal markets for the debt securities are dealer markets which have a high level of price transparency. The market participants for debt securities are typically large money center banks and regional banks, brokers, dealers, pension funds, and other entities with debt investment portfolios.

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the authoritative guidance establishes a three level fair value inputs hierarchy and requires an entity to maximize the use of observable valuation inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company uses market data, assumptions, and risks that market participants would use in measuring the fair value of the asset or liability, including the risks inherent in the inputs and the valuation techniques. The hierarchy is summarized below.

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities at the measurement date that the reporting entity has the ability to access.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which requires us to develop our own assumptions, which are significant to the measurement of the fair values.

The valuation inputs hierarchy classification for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (in thousands). These tables do not include cash held in money market savings accounts.

7. FINANCIAL STATEMENT COMPONENTS

The following financial statement components have significant balances as of June 30, 2024.

Restricted Cash

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, Restricted cash, current decreased largely due to a $3.3 million release of escrow in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement with Ibeo.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, management identified various factors related to the 2024 restructuring events (seeNote 13. Restructuring Charges) that collectively indicated that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the Company’s Reference software intangible asset was less than its carrying amount as of June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, prior to impairment, the fair value was $4.5 million. As a result, the Company performed an impairment assessment for intangibles in accordance with ASC 360,Property, Plant and Equipment. The June 30, 2024 impairment test indicated a decline in the carrying amount of the Reference software intangible asset and a reduction in the asset’s useful life, resulting in a non-cash impairment charge of $3.0 million, which is included in impairment loss on intangible assets on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The fair value of the Reference software subsequent to impairment was $1.4 million and is included within intangible assets, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

**8. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION **

The Company issues share-based compensation to employees in the form of restricted stock units (RSUs), performance stock units (PSUs), and stock options. Share-based awards are accounted for by recognizing the fair value of share-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the service period of the award, net of estimated forfeitures. The fair value of RSUs and PSUs is determined by the closing price of common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of stock options is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Changes in estimated inputs or using other option valuation methods may result in materially different option values and share-based compensation expense.

The following table summarizes the amount of share-based compensation expense by line item on the statements of operations:
