DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS | 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS MicroVision, Inc. is committed to driving the global adoption of proprietary products, which leverage deterministic AI at the edge with the Company’s innovative perception and application software running on diverse lidar sensors. The Company’s solutions enable ADAS and autonomy features for customers in a wide range of industries including robotics, automated warehouse, agriculture, mining, military, and automotive. The Company’s deterministic AI at the edge software running on sensors enables intelligent autonomous, active safety, and automation systems which depend on secure, cost-effective and energy-efficient solutions. This software has been developed in close collaboration with automotive customers and the Company is now rapidly expanding with it into new industrial and commercial vehicle sectors. With engineering teams based in Redmond, Washington and Hamburg, Germany, the Company develops and supplies integrated solutions built on the perception software stack, incorporating application software and processing data from differentiated sensor systems. The Company’s extensive experience in developing and productizing core lidar hardware and software components, along with expertise in edge computing, positions the Company as a valuable commercial partner capable of delivering high-value, low-power products. 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 December 31, 2024, the Company had total liquidity of $74.7 million including $54.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $20.2 million in short-term investment securities. In addition, the Company has approximately $113.6 million availability under its current at-the-market (“ATM”) facility as of December 31, 2024, subject to certain conditions. On October 23, 2024, the Company issued $45.0 million in senior secured convertible notes for gross proceeds of $41.4 million and has a remaining commitment pursuant to the convertible note facility of $30.0 million, subject to certain limitations (see Note 7. Notes Payable and Derivative Liability). Subsequent to the date of these financial statements, on February 4, 2025, the Company sold shares of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock for net proceeds of approximately $7.8 million. Additionally, subsequent to the date of these financial statements, maturities of the $45.0 million senior secured convertible notes were reduced by $10.6 million (see Note 16. Subsequent Events). To date, total maturities have been reduced by $12.3 million, inclusive of $1.8 million reduced prior to December 31, 2024 (see Note 7. Notes Payable and Derivative Liability). 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 consolidated financial statements.
