The Company focuses on edge sensors across multiple modalities spanning LiDAR, radar, ultrasound and computer vision. These functions represent the core underpinnings of both electric and autonomous vehicles, while the advanced user interfaces are transforming the in-cabin experience to mirror and seamlessly connect to the mobile platforms people rely on every day. indie is an approved vendor to Tier 1 automotive suppliers and its platforms can be found in marquee automotive manufacturers around the world. Headquartered in Aliso Viejo, California, indie has design centers and sales offices in Austin, Texas; Boston, Massachusetts; Detroit, Michigan; San Francisco and San Jose, California; Cordoba, Argentina; Budapest, Hungary; Dresden, Frankfurt an der Oder, Munich and Nuremberg, Germany; Edinburgh, Scotland; Rabat, Morocco; Haifa, Israel; Quebec City, Canada; Seoul, South Korea; Tokyo, Japan and several locations throughout China. The Company engages subcontractors to manufacture its products. The majority of these subcontractors are located in Asia. Execution of At-The-Market Agreement On August 26, 2022, the Company entered into an At Market Issuance Agreement (“ATM Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc., Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC and Roth Capital Partners, LLC (collectively as “Sales Agents”) relating to shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. In accordance with the terms of the Sales Agreement, the Company may offer and sell shares of its Class A common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $150,000 from time to time through the Sales Agents, acting as the Company’s agent or principal. The Company implemented this program for the flexibility that it provides to the capital markets and to best time its equity capital needs. As of December 31, 2022, indie has raised gross proceeds of $17,203 and issued 2,131,759 shares of Class A common stock at an averaged per-share sales price of $8.07 through this program and had approximately $132,797 available for future issuances under the ATM Agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2022, indie incurred total issuance costs of $379.

The fair market value of this equity-based earn-out was $7,836 on January 4, 2022. See Note 3 — Business Combinations for additional description of these acquisitions. Reverse Recapitalization with Thunder Bridge Acquisition II On June 10, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), the Company completed a series of transactions (the “Transaction”) with Thunder Bridge Acquisition II, Ltd. (“TB2”) pursuant to the Master Transactions Agreement dated December 14, 2020, as amended on May 3, 2021. In connection with the Transaction, Thunder Bridge Acquisition II Surviving Pubco, Inc, a Delaware corporation (“Surviving Pubco”), was formed to be the successor public company to TB2, and TB2 was domesticated into a Delaware corporation and merged with and into a merger subsidiary of Surviving Pubco. Immediately prior to the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”), shareholders of TB2 redeemed an aggregate of 9,877,106 common shares of TB2 and the outstanding common shares and warrants of TB2 were converted into 24,622,894 Class A common shares of Surviving Pubco and 17,250,000 warrants to purchase Class A common shares of Surviving Pubco. The outstanding common shares and warrants of TB2 sponsors were converted into 8,625,000 shares of Class A common shares and 8,650,000 private placement warrants. In addition, TB2 issued 1,500,000 working capital warrants to an affiliate of the sponsor in satisfaction of a working capital promissory note (see Note 10 — Warrant Liability). Concurrent with the Closing, TB2 raised $150,000 in a Private Investment in Public Entity (“PIPE”) financing, pursuant to which Surviving Pubco issued 15,000,000 Class A common shares. On the Closing Date, Surviving PubCo changed its name to indie Semiconductor, Inc., and listed its shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INDI.” Immediately prior to the Transaction, (i) the Company’s existing warrants to purchase the Company’s Class G units were net exercised and 10,019 Class G units of the Company were issued to the holders of the warrants; (ii) the SAFEs were converted into an aggregate of 284,925 Class A units; (iii) the Embry notes and the interest accrued thereunder were converted into 185,000 Class A units and 100,000 Class C units; and (iv) all 1,251,566 Class C, D, E, F and G units of the Company were converted into Class A units as per their rights and preferences. Immediately thereafter, each outstanding Class A unit and Class B unit was split into approximately 27.8 Class A units and Class B units, respectively (the “Exchange Ratio”). Following the split, 77,497,793 Class A units were exchanged for 43,670,422 Class A common shares and 33,827,371 Class V common shares in indie and 9,564,150 Class B units were exchanged for 9,564,150 Class A common shares in indie (1,791,147 of such shares were subject to vesting conditions). The closing Exchange Ratio was determined by dividing (i) a number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock equal to (A) the Closing Merger Consideration (as defined below), divided by (B) $10.00 per share, by (ii) the total number of ADK LLC membership units outstanding immediately prior to the Closing. The “Closing Merger Consideration” of $894,628 was determined by taking $900,000 of merger consideration less applicable adjustments of $5,372. 3,450,000 Class A common shares of indie were issued and held in escrow (“Escrow Shares”) for the potential future release to the sponsors of TB2 in the event the earn-out milestones are met. Additionally, the former owners of ADK LLC may be entitled to receive up to 10,000,000 earn-out shares of the Company’s Class A common stock if the earn-out milestones are met. See Note 11 — Contingent and Earn-Out Liabilities for the milestone details. Immediately following the Closing, the Company’s board of directors consisted of nine directors, seven of whom were designated by the Company. A majority of the directors qualified as independent directors under rules of Nasdaq. The Transaction was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Under the guidance in Accounting Standards Codifications (“ASC”) Topic 805, indie is treated as the “acquirer” for financial reporting purposes. As such, the Company is deemed the accounting predecessor of the combined business and is the successor registrant for U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) purposes, meaning that the Company’s financial statements for previous periods will be disclosed in the registrant’s future periodic reports filed with the SEC. The most significant change in our reported financial position and results of operations was gross cash proceeds of $399,511 from the merger transaction, which includes 150,000 in gross proceeds from the PIPE financing that was consummated in conjunction with the Transaction. The increase in cash was offset by transaction costs incurred in connection with the Transaction of approximately $43,463 plus the retirement of indie’s long-term debt of $15,607. Approximately $29,770 of the transaction costs and all of indie’s long-term debt were paid as of June 30, 2021. Approximately $21,848 of the transaction costs paid as of June 30, 2021 were paid by TB2 as part of the Closing. The remainder of the transaction costs were paid in the third quarter of 2021. The table below summarizes the shares of Class A and Class V common stock issued immediately after the closing of the Transaction as well as the impact of the Transaction on the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity as of June 10, 2021:

Risks and Uncertainties The Pandemic and efforts to control its spread have significantly curtailed the movement of people, goods, and services worldwide. The ultimate duration and extent of the Pandemic depends on future developments that cannot be accurately predicted at this time, including the severity and transmission rates of new and more contagious and/or vaccine-resistant variants of COVID-19, as well as the impact that any such new variants may have on local, regional, national and international customers and economic markets. The Pandemic has already had an adverse effect on the global economy, and the ultimate societal and economic impact of the Pandemic remains unknown. The Company experienced a decrease in customer demand and product shipments in the second quarter of fiscal year 2020. This decrease was primarily the result of closures or reduced capacity at customer manufacturing facilities in China. Starting from the second half of fiscal year 2020, customer manufacturing facilities re-opened, and through 2021, customers’ demand has continued to increase. As a result, the semiconductor industry and automotive semiconductors in particular, experienced material shortages and supply constraints. Given the Company’s reliance on third-party manufacturing suppliers, these industry dynamics have resulted in certain instances of extended production lead times, increased production and expedite costs, and delays in meeting increasing customer demand for its products, which if unabated, present a significant risk to the Company. In certain circumstances, the Company has increased order lead times, and placed purchase orders with suppliers based on its anticipated demand requirements in efforts to secure production capacity allocation. However, the Company cannot predict the duration or magnitude of the Pandemic or the full impact that it may have on the Company’s financial condition, operations, and workforce. The Company will continue to actively monitor the rapidly evolving situation related to the Pandemic and may take further actions that alter the Company’s operations, including those that may be required by federal, state or local authorities, or that the Company determines are in the best interests of its employees and other third parties with whom the Company does business. Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and the Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiary, ADK LLC, of which 85% was owned by indie as of December 31, 2022. ADK LLC’s consolidated financial statements include its wholly-owned subsidiaries indie Services Corporation, indie LLC and indie City LLC, all California entities, Ay Dee Kay Limited, a private limited company incorporated under the laws of Scotland, indie GmbH and Symeo GmbH, both of which are private limited liability companies incorporated under the laws of Germany, indie Kft, a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Hungary, TeraXion Inc., a company incorporated under the laws of Canada, indie Semiconductor Israel Ltd., a private limited company incorporated under the laws of Israel, Ay Dee Kay S.A., a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Argentina, indie Semiconductor Morocco, a limited liability company under the laws of Morocco, indie Semiconductor Japan KK, a limited liability company under the laws of Japan, indie Semiconductor Korea Branch, a limited liability company under the laws of Korea, Wuxi indie Microelectronics (“Wuxi”), a Chinese entity with 55% voting controlled and 38% owned by the Company as of December 31, 2022 and Wuxi’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, indie Semiconductor Suzhou, indie Semiconductor HK, Ltd and Shanghai Ziying Microelectronics Co., Ltd. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions of the subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. The noncontrolling interest attributable to the Company’s less-than-wholly-owned subsidiary is presented as a separate component from stockholders’ equity (deficit) in the consolidated balance sheets, and a noncontrolling interest in the consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity (deficit) and noncontrolling interest (see Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — Consolidation).
