• Perciz defense and homeland security business gaining traction; engaged in active discussions with multiple strategic defense primes in Israel and abroad; Innoviz LiDARs recognized by MAFAT, Israel's Directorate of Defense Research and Development
• Automotive programs with VW, Daimler Truck, and others progressing; development projects with other customers on track
• Optimizing operations, with a realignment to be implemented in the fourth quarter; expected cost savings of approximately $17.5 million on an annualized basis vs. the current run rate
• Revenues of $12.1 million in Q3

TEL AVIV, Israel, Nov. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Innoviz Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: INVZ) (the "Company," "we," or "Innoviz"), a leading supplier of high-performance, automotive-grade LiDAR sensor platforms for the automotive, security, defense, and industrial markets, today provided commercial and strategic updates on its business, reported its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, and updated its financial and operational targets for 2026.

"Over the past year, we took decisive steps to diversify our business and strengthen our path to long-term growth and profitability," said Omer Keilaf, CEO and Founder of Innoviz. "We have repositioned Innoviz around two synergistic end-markets: automotive, and defense and homeland security under our Perciz brand. In defense, we are delivering initial customer orders. We are also engaged in active discussions with dozens of potential customers, including large strategic defense primes in Israel and abroad, many of which have ordered units for testing and evaluation. In September, MAFAT, Israel's Directorate of Defense Research and Development, recognized the maturity, robustness, and performance of our LiDARs and their suitability for defense applications. As warfare changes rapidly and the focus shifts to non-conventional tactics, our production-ready, automotive-grade sensors are well positioned to address today's most urgent security challenges in applications such as counter-UAS. We believe our partnership-oriented go-to-market approach could result in volume defense orders in the first half of next year. In automotive, our projects continue to progress, though third-quarter revenues were lower than expected, primarily reflecting a delay in NRE revenues as a customer shifted the timing of programs. We expect to realize the full value of these NREs in 2027. To accelerate our path to profitability, we are implementing a realignment of our operations, with expected cost savings of approximately $17.5 million on an annualized basis vs. the current run rate. The realignment supports our runway into 2028, and, together with our automotive and defense businesses, positions us for expansion."

Commercial and Strategic Updates

• Repositioned Around Two Synergistic End-Markets – Innoviz now serves two end-markets: automotive, and defense and homeland security under the Perciz brand. The Company expects defense and security to support revenue expansion and gross margin uplift, aided by shorter sales cycle times and ASPs an order of magnitude higher than in automotive, while automotive drives volume growth as programs begin ramping.
• Defense Orders Shipping – Innoviz has begun delivering initial customer orders and has shipped samples to dozens of additional entities for testing, development, and integration.
• Recognized by MAFAT – In September, MAFAT, Israel's Directorate of Defense Research and Development, recognized the maturity, robustness, and performance of Innoviz's LiDAR solutions and their suitability for defense applications. Given MAFAT's worldwide reputation and the extent to which defense capabilities are exchanged between Israel and other nations, Innoviz believes this recognition could help support potential demand among Western defense customers over time.
• Strong Engagement at AUSA – At the Association of the United States Army (AUSA) Annual Meeting and Exposition in October, Innoviz met with dozens of potential customers, including CTOs and senior leaders of leading defense companies and system integrators.
• Automotive Programs Progressing – Projects with VW and Daimler Truck are progressing, along with other Level 3 and Level 4 development programs, including work with LOXO on its Level 4 autonomous delivery platform.
• Optimizing Operations – Innoviz is implementing a realignment of its operations to accelerate its progress toward profitability. To maximize efficiencies, the Company will streamline its R&D and operations. As a result of these actions, the Company's workforce will be reduced by approximately 20%, and the Company expects the realignment to deliver cost savings of approximately $17.5 million on an annualized basis compared to its current run rate.

Q3 2026 Financial Results

Revenues in Q3 2026 were $12.1 million compared to revenues of $15.3 million in Q3 2025. The revenues resulted from a combination of NRE services and sales of LiDAR units.

Forward-Looking Statements

This announcement contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including statements regarding the services and products offered by Innoviz, the anticipated technological capability of Innoviz's products, the markets in which Innoviz operates, and the Company's ability to successfully enter and compete in the defense and homeland security markets, expected NRE payments, the anticipated scaling of production and/or the potential volume of product units under third-party platform programs, and Innoviz's projected future operational and financial results, including revenue and NREs and the potential for synergies between the Company's automotive and defense market activities. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words "believe," "project," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "strategy," "future," "opportunity," "plan," "potential," "may," "should," "will," "would," "will be," "will continue," "will likely result," and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties.

"NRE (Non-Recurring Engineering)" is booked services that may be ordered from Innoviz usually as part of a program design win and includes, among other things, application engineering, product adaptation services, testing and validation services, standards and qualification work and change requests (usually during the lifetime of a program). NREs may be paid based on milestones over the development phase of the project which may take a few years.

Many factors could cause actual future events, and, in the case of our forward-looking revenues and NRE bookings, actual orders or actual payments, to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this announcement, including but not limited to, the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations, the ability to convert design wins into definitive orders and the magnitude of such orders, the ability to achieve broader market adoption of Innoviz's products and solutions, the ability to maintain and scale initial deployments and evaluations into long-term commercial relationships, the risk that initial purchase orders do not convert into anticipated volumes and that results depend on the success of third-party integrators and partners, the risks associated with the defense and homeland security market, including procurement cycles, budgetary constraints and regulatory and export control considerations, the early stage of the Company's defense and security business, the dependency on third-party platform decisions, regulatory approvals, and market conditions with respect to projected product volumes under programs, the risk that anticipated synergies between the automotive and defense markets may not materialize or that these markets have different sales cycles, regulatory regimes, and margin profiles, the ability of preliminary arrangements, including evaluation engagements and letters of intent, to result in definitive supply, development, or commercial agreements on expected terms and volumes, the possibility that NRE would be set off against liabilities and indemnities, the ability to realize the anticipated cost savings from the Company's operational realignment and the risk that the realignment disrupts operations, results in greater than expected charges, or affects the retention of key personnel, the risk that customers delay, reschedule or modify program timelines, including the timing of NRE recognition and payment, the sufficiency of the Company's liquidity and capital resources to fund its operations for the anticipated period, the ability to identify and realize additional opportunities, potential changes and developments in the highly competitive LiDAR technology and related industries, and our expectations regarding the impact of geopolitical developments in the Middle East including the evolving conflict in Israel on our ongoing operations. The foregoing list is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider such risk and the other risks and uncertainties described in Innoviz's annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 4, 2026, and in other documents filed by Innoviz from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. The agreements and letters of intent referenced in this announcement are subject to various conditions, including, in certain cases, successful completion of evaluation phases, negotiation of definitive terms, and customer election to proceed. The recognition by MAFAT referenced in this announcement does not constitute a procurement decision, contractual commitment, or commitment of future funding. There can be no assurances that any such arrangement or recognition will result in definitive agreements, firm orders, payments, or series production, or that volumes, timing, or commercial terms will align with current expectations. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and Innoviz assumes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Innoviz gives no assurance that it will achieve its expectations.
