OUSTER REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2021 FINANCIAL RESULTS

$7.4 million in revenue, up 72% year over year, and 26% gross margins

Record shipments of over 1,460 sensors

Ouster, Inc. (NYSE: OUST) (“Ouster” or the “Company”), a leading provider of high-resolution digital lidar sensors for the industrial, smart infrastructure, robotics, and automotive industries, today announced financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Second Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights

  • $7.4 million in revenue, up 72% year over year, and up 11% from first quarter 2021.
  • 26% gross margins, up from 9% in second quarter 2020 and consistent with first quarter 2021.
  • Shipped over 1,460 sensors, an increase of 342% year over year, and a 49% increase over first quarter 2021.
  • Increased the total number of Strategic Customer Agreements to 53, collectively representing over $422 million in contracted revenue opportunity.1
  • Net loss increased to $32.0 million, compared to $11.3 million in second quarter 2020 and $21.0 million in first quarter 2021.
  • Adjusted EBITDA loss increased to $14.1 million, up from $9.3 million year over year and $10.0 million in first quarter 2021.

Revenue growth was driven by the increases in sales volume compared to the first quarter of 2021. Stability in margins was attributable to decreases in cost per unit as the Company continued to realize economies of scale in its production capabilities. The Company maintained margin stability despite ongoing supply chain challenges relating to the global shortage of semiconductors, and Ouster’s move towards multi-year agreements with negotiated customer pricing causing declines in average selling prices (ASPs). The increase in Adjusted EBITDA loss was primarily due to the Company’s continued investments in its hardware roadmap, software, and expansion of its commercial team.

Business Outlook and 2021 Guidance

For the full year 2021, Ouster expects to achieve $33 million to $35 million of revenue and 25% to 27% gross margins.

Ouster CEO Angus Pacala commented, “We believe our second quarter results demonstrate that we continue on our path of becoming the leading lidar company across each of our four verticals. We believe we have the most differentiated technology and the most diversified customer base among lidar companies, as well as a proven ability to execute. Ouster continues to invest in its long term growth by improving product performance, lowering costs, and growing revenues.”

Ouster CFO Anna Brunelle added, “We are investing in growing a best-in-class commercial organization to expand and support our customer base as well as in developing our highly competitive product roadmap, which we believe will allow Ouster to pull ahead in each of our verticals over time.”

____________________________

1 “Strategic Customer Agreements” or “SCAs” establish a multi-year purchase and supply framework for Ouster and the customer, and include details about customer programs and applications where the customer intends to use Ouster products. SCAs also include multi-year non-binding customer forecasts (typically of three to five years in length) giving Ouster visibility to the customer's long-term purchasing requirements, mutually agreed upon pricing over the duration of the agreement, and in certain cases include multi-year binding purchase commitments. “Contracted revenue opportunity” represents the sum of both binding purchase commitments and non-binding forecasts. No assurances can be given that non-binding forecasts will mature into binding purchase commitments, or that any contracted revenue opportunity will result in revenue. No additional revenue opportunity beyond the customer’s actual forecast has been imputed.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including but not limited to, statements regarding Ouster’s potential revenue opportunity from Strategic Customer Agreements, financial outlook and market positioning. Forward-looking statements give Ouster’s current expectations and projections relating to its financial condition, competitive position, future results of operations, plans, objectives, future orders and business. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate”, “estimate”, “expect”, “project”, “plan”, “intend”, “believe”, “may”, “will”, “should”, “can have”, “likely” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that we expected, including: Ouster’s limited operating history and history of losses; the negotiating power and product standards of its customers; fluctuations in its operating results; cancellation or postponement of contracts or unsuccessful implementations; the adoption of its products and the growth of the lidar market generally; its ability to grow its sales and marketing organization; substantial research and development costs needed to develop and commercialize new products; the competitive environment in which it operates; selection of our products for inclusion in target markets; its future capital needs; its ability to use tax attributes; its dependence on key third party suppliers, in particular Benchmark Electronics, Inc., and manufacturers; ability to maintain inventory and the risk of inventory write-downs; inaccurate forecasts of market growth; its ability to manage growth; the creditworthiness of our customers; risks related to acquisitions; risks related to international operations; risks of product delivery problems or defects; costs associated with product warranties; its ability to maintain competitive average selling prices or high sales volumes or reduce product costs; conditions in its customers industries; its ability to recruit and retain key personnel; its use of professional employer organizations; its ability to adequately protect and enforce its intellectual property rights; its ability to effectively respond to evolving regulations and standards; risks related to operating as a public company; risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic; and other important factors discussed in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 4, 2021, and in other reports the Company files with or furnishes to the SEC. Any such forward-looking statements represent management’s estimates and beliefs as of the date of this press release. While Ouster may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, other than as required by law, it disclaims any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause its views to change.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to its results determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), Ouster believes the non-GAAP measure of Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating its operating performance. Ouster calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net loss excluding interest expense (income), net, other expense (income), net, stock-based compensation and depreciation and amortization. Ouster believes that Adjusted EBITDA may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance and may be helpful in comparing with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP information to supplement their GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly-titled non‑GAAP measures used by other companies. Reconciliation tables of the most comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures are included at the end of this press release.
