Valens Semiconductor Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Results
Key Financial Highlights:
| ● | Q4 2025 revenues: $19.4 million, exceeding the top end of our guidance |
| ● | Q4 2025 gross margin: 60.5% GAAP; 63.9% non-GAAP, exceeding the top end of our guidance |

HOD HASHARON, Israel, February 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Valens Semiconductor Ltd. (NYSE: VLN), a leader in high-performance connectivity, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025.
“We are pleased to report a strong fourth quarter, well above our initial expectations, delivering revenues of $19.4 million, which brings us to $70.6 million yearly revenues in 2025,” said Yoram Salinger, CEO of Valens Semiconductor. “Valens’ fourth-quarter results mark our seventh consecutive quarter of revenue growth and a 22% growth year-over-year increase. While we expect to maintain growth in 2026, the pace and extent of that growth may be affected by macroeconomic conditions and the pace of adoption of new technologies, which could continue to reduce visibility and increase uncertainty.”
“Valens has delivered some remarkable achievements over the years, both in the Audio-Video arena and in the Automotive market. Hence, my outlook for the company and my strategy for achieving our growth targets is to concentrate our resources on these core businesses. In these markets, Valens brings unmatched technology leadership and brand recognition, and our focus will continue to be on meaningful growth opportunities,” Salinger concluded.
“Our yearly guidance reflects our expectation for continued growth, based on the visibility we have today, while acknowledging that macroeconomic uncertainty may impact the pace of our growth,” said Guy Nathanzon, CFO of Valens Semiconductor. “Given the current environment and reduced visibility beyond the near term, we will provide single-year growth projections going forward. Further, at the beginning of 2026, we announced an operational efficiency plan, which is expected to save approximately $5 million annually in operating expenses.”
Q4 2025 Financial Highlights:
| ● | Q4 2025 revenues reached $19.4 million, exceeding our guidance of $18.2-$18.9 million, compared to $17.3 million in Q3 2025 and $16.7 million in Q4 2024. |
| ○ | Q4 2025 Cross-Industry Business (“CIB”) revenues accounted for approximately 70% of total revenues at $13.9 million compared to $13.2 million in Q3 2025 and $11.7 million in Q4 2024. |
| ○ | Q4 2025 Automotive revenues accounted for approximately 30% of total revenues at $5.5 million, compared to $4.1 million in Q3 2025 and $5.0 million in Q4 2024. |
| ● | Q4 2025 GAAP gross margin was 60.5% (non-GAAP gross margin was 63.9%), above the guidance of 58%-60%. This is compared to a GAAP gross margin of 63.0% for Q3 2025 and 60.4% for Q4 2024 (non-GAAP gross margin of 66.7% in Q3 2025 and 64.5% in Q4 2024). On a segment basis, Q4 2025 gross margin from the CIB was 66.4% and gross margin from Automotive was 45.9%. This compares to a Q3 2025 gross margin of 69.1% and 43.2%, respectively, and Q4 2024 gross margin of 64.7% and 50.5%, respectively. The decrease in gross margin of the CIB compared to Q3 2025 was due to a change in product mix. The increase in Q4 2025 in automotive gross margin compared to Q3 2025 was due to cost optimization. |
| ● | Q4 2025 GAAP net loss amounted to $(8.8) million, compared to a net loss of $(7.3) million in Q3 2025 and a net loss of $(7.3) million in Q4 2024. |
| ● | Q4 2025 adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $(4.3) million, within the guidance range of a $(4.6)-$(4.2) million adjusted EBITDA loss. This compares to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $(4.3) million in Q3 2025 and an adjusted EBITDA loss of $(3.7) million in Q4 2024. |
Full Year 2025 Financial Highlights
| ● | 2025 revenues reached $70.6 million, exceeding our guidance of between $69.4 million to $70.1 million. This compares to full year revenues from 2024 of $57.9 million. |
| ○ | CIB revenues accounted for 73.1% (equivalent to $51.6 million) compared to 62.7% (equivalent to $36.3 million) in 2024. The increase was due to the recovery in the Audio-Video market. |
| ○ | Automotive revenues accounted for 26.9% (equivalent to $19.0 million), compared to 37.3% (equivalent to $21.6 million) in 2024. The decrease was due to gradual price erosion and a reduction in the number of units sold to Mercedes Benz. |
| ● | 2025 GAAP gross margin was 62.4% (non-GAAP gross margin was 66.1%). This compared to a GAAP gross margin of 59.2% for 2024 (and non-GAAP gross margin of 62.9%). On a segment basis, 2025 gross margin from the CIB was 68.1% and gross margin from Automotive was 47.0%. This compares to gross margin of 71.0% and 39.5%, respectively, in 2024. The increase in the 2025 automotive gross margin was due to an optimization of our product cost. The decrease in gross margin of the CIB was due to a product mix shift. |
| ● | 2025 GAAP net loss was $(31.6) million, compared to a GAAP net loss of $(36.6) million in 2024. |

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(U.S. Dollars in thousands)
The following table provides a reconciliation of Net loss to Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Net profit (loss) before financial expense (income), net, income taxes, equity in earnings of investee and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude share-based compensation and change in fair value of Forfeiture Shares and earnout liability, which may vary from period-to-period, and certain batch production incident expenses (income). We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers, because not all issuers calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to Net loss or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
Although we provide guidance for Adjusted EBITDA, we are not able to provide guidance for projected Net profit (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Certain elements of Net profit (loss), including share-based compensation expenses and warrant valuations, are not predictable due to the high variability and difficulty of making accurate forecasts. As a result, it is impractical for us to provide guidance on Net profit (loss) or to reconcile our Adjusted EBITDA guidance without unreasonable efforts. Consequently, no disclosure of projected Net profit (loss) is included. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.
