Recent Highlights
- Defense and homeland security deliveries: Arbe's technology was selected by a leading global defense and homeland security system integrator, and the parties signed a framework collaboration agreement covering three joint projects, with plans to expand cooperation into additional initiatives. Arbe has begun deliveries of radar systems directly from its production line, with additional shipments expected as production ramps.
- Robotaxi systems with Arbe on the road: Building on the previously reported robotaxi engagements, Arbe's radar systems have been integrated into vehicles that have commenced on-road trials. Arbe continues to be engaged in active bid processes with additional robotaxi players.

China with HiRain: Arbe's Tier 1 HiRain, a leading supplier offering a portfolio of radar systems based on Arbe's chipset, has advised Arbe that it is progressing toward production, currently planned for the beginning of 2027, delivering on the previously announced order from its L4 OEM customer. HiRain is also competing in meaningful RFIs and RFQs. - Progress with OEMs actively testing advanced radar solutions: Arbe is actively participating in evaluations together with its Tier 1s to replace the OEMs' existing radar technologies. Arbe is regarded as the leading ultra-high-resolution radar provider for L3 and higher autonomy.
- Broader radar applications: Sensrad, a Tier 1 supplying imaging radar based on Arbe's chipset for defense and commercial applications, announced a new collaboration with VirtuRail, which is integrating the radar into its automated service vehicles for underground tunnel construction. Arbe continues to supply chipsets to Sensrad, supporting Sensrad's customers Watchit, Forterra, and Tianyi. Arbe is also directly engaged in additional non-automotive programs at various stages of evaluation.
- Continued revenue growth: Arbe's new strategy of focusing on broader markets with more immediate revenue potential delivered results. Revenue growth in the quarter was due to increased chipset sales to automotive Tier 1s, radar system sales for defense and civilian programs, and ongoing engineering and development services.

15% expense reduction initiated in the first quarter of 2026 is expected to be reflected in the third quarter of 2026. Management believes that the current balance sheet, with around$42 million $7 million
Management Comments
Kobi Marenko, President and Co-Founder of Arbe, commented, "We are pleased with our performance in the second quarter, making solid progress. In automotive, our radar systems are now installed in robotaxi vehicles that have begun on-road trials. In defense and homeland security, we have started delivering systems that have been successfully field-tested. We see strong demand, with customers and potential customers requiring our radar solutions for immediate needs."
Ram Machness, Chief Executive Officer of Arbe, commented, "Our strategy of diversifying sales into new markets with immediate needs and shorter sales cycles is paying off, reflected in a clear revenue growth trend. Growth in the quarter came from our expanding customer base across automotive, defense, and civilian programs. We believe that these sales are evidence that our transition from a chipset supplier to a complete radar technology provider is opening up new and diversified markets for us with revenue potential in both the short and long-term."

Outlook
Arbe is reaffirming its full-year 2026 outlook provided in February 2026.
Based on current market conditions and customer engagement visibility, the Company's outlook for 2026 is as follows:
- Revenue in the range of
$4 million $6 million - Adjusted EBITDA for 2026 is projected to be a loss in the range of
$28 million $31 million
This outlook reflects management's current expectations as of today and is subject to change based on market conditions, customer adoption timelines, and other factors.
Arbe expects to continue signing additional automotive OEM design wins over time, beyond the recently announced design win. However, the timing of future wins remains dependent on OEM adoption cycles, which are taking longer than previously anticipated. As a result, the Company is not providing guidance on the timing of additional automotive OEM design wins.
