Valens Semiconductor (NYSE: VLN) Q1 2026 revenue flat, loss steady
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Valens Semiconductor reported unaudited results for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Revenue was $16.9 million, essentially flat compared with $16.8 million a year earlier, while net loss was $8.3 million, in line with the prior-year loss.
Gross profit was $10.5 million on cost of revenues of $6.4 million. Operating expenses were $19.4 million, including $3.1 million of stock-based compensation across options and RSUs. The company generated negative operating cash flow of $5.1 million, but investing inflows led to a $1.1 million increase in cash.
As of March 31, 2026, Valens held $29.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and $57.1 million in short-term deposits, supporting total assets of $128.4 million and shareholders’ equity of $100.2 million. Segment results show similar revenue levels year over year in both the CIB and Automotive businesses, with continued operating losses in each segment.
Positive
- None.
Negative
- None.
Insights
Results show stable revenue, ongoing losses, and solid liquidity.
Valens Semiconductor delivered Q1 2026 revenue of $16.9M, nearly unchanged from Q1 2025, indicating a stable top line across its CIB and Automotive segments. Both segments remain loss-making, with combined operating loss of $8.9M as R&D and go-to-market spending stay elevated.
Liquidity is a key strength: cash and cash equivalents of $29.0M plus short-term deposits of $57.1M underpin shareholders’ equity of $100.2M and very low financial liabilities. Net cash used in operations improved to $5.1M from $7.6M, helped by working-capital movements.
Hedging and risk management are visible through foreign currency cash flow hedges and non-designated forwards, which modestly affected financial income. Subsequent filings may further clarify whether stable revenue and narrowing operating loss trends continue across both the CIB and Automotive segments.

| b. | On October 7, 2023, Hamas launched a series of attacks on civilian and military targets in Southern Israel and Central Israel, to which the Israel Defense Forces responded. In addition, Iran, Hezbollah and the Houthi movement attacked military and civilian targets in Israel, to which Israel responded, including through increased air and/or ground operations in Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and Iran. Following years of conflict in the region, on October 9, 2025, Israel, Hamas, the United States and other countries in the region agreed to a framework for a ceasefire in Gaza between Israel and Hamas. On February 28, 2026, the United States and Israel launched joint combat operations in Iran to which Iran and Hezbollah responded with ballistic missile and drone attacks on Israel as well as other countries and U.S. military bases in the region. On April 8, 2026, the United States and Iran agreed to a two-week ceasefire. How long and how severe the current conflicts in Gaza, Northern Israel, Lebanon, Iran or the broader region last and become is unknown at this time and any continued clash among Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran or other countries or militant groups in the region may escalate in the future into a greater regional conflict. The Company performs an ongoing assessment of the evolving situation and has assessed that currently there is no material impact of the current conflict on the Company’s operations, financial position, or results of operations. The Company continues to assess potential impacts in light of changes and developments. |
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
| a. | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2026. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements that were included in Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, deposits and accounts payable (included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets) approximates their fair value because of their generally short maturities.
There have been no material changes in our significant accounting policies as described in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.
| b. | New Accounting Pronouncements |
Accounting pronouncements effective in future periods:
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosure (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expense and ASU 2025-01, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date. The ASU improves the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and provides more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. The amendments require that at each interim and annual reporting period an entity will, inter alia, disclose amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and amortization included in each relevant expense caption (such as cost of sales, general and administrative, and research and development). The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statement disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2025-06, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (“ASU 2025-06”). ASU 2025-06 provides targeted improvements to the accounting for internal-use software costs by replacing the existing project-stage model with a principles-based approach to determine when capitalization of costs should begin. ASU 2025-06 is effective for all entities, on a prospective basis, for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that ASU 2025-06 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Acroname’s acquisition, the Company shall be obligated to pay Acroname’s former shareholders earn out payments of up to $
The Company recorded earn-out liability in connection with these payments at fair value on the acquisition date.
Each reporting period thereafter, the Company revaluated the earn-out liability and records the changes in their fair value in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Changes in the fair value of earnout liability can result from adjustments to the discount rates, revenues, profitability targets and achievement of mutual development project. This fair value measurement represents Level 3 measurements, as they are based on significant inputs not observable in the market. Significant judgment is required in determining the assumptions utilized as of the acquisition date and for each subsequent period.

NOTE 7 - DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING:
Derivatives
Generally accepted accounting principles require all derivatives, whether designated in a hedging relationship or not, to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. These derivative instruments are measured at fair value within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s earnings and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s foreign currency risk management strategy is principally designed to mitigate the future potential financial impact of changes in the U.S. Dollar value of anticipated transactions and balances denominated in ILS resulting from changes in USD/ILS exchange rates. The Company entered into derivative transactions, specifically foreign currency forward contracts, to manage its exposure to foreign currency exchange risk to reduce earnings volatility. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for trading or speculative purposes.
Non-Designated Hedges
The Company hedges its foreign currency monetary assets primarily resulting from foreign currency denominated short-term deposits with foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the risk that the Company’s earnings and cash flows will be adversely affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These contracts have maturities of up to approximately 12 months. Generally, The Company does not designate these foreign currency forward contracts as hedges for accounting purposes and changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized immediately in earnings. Any gains or losses on the underlying foreign-denominated balance are offset by the losses or gains on the forward contract. Derivative instruments are recorded as other current assets or other current liabilities.

NOTE 7 - DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING (continued):
As of March 31, 2026, the derivative instruments are recorded as other current liabilities. Gains and losses on forward contracts and foreign denominated deposits are included in financial income, net. The cash flows associated with these derivatives are classified in the consolidated statements of cash flows consistently with the classification of the underlying hedged transaction, within cash flows from investing activities.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had outstanding forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments with notional and fair value amounts equivalent to the following:

Designated Hedges
During the fourth quarter of 2024
the Company initiated a foreign currency cash flow hedging program, designed to hedge the Company’s foreign exchange rate risk, resulting
from ILS payroll expenses. The Company hedges portions of its forecasted payroll payments denominated in ILS for a period of up to 12
months, using forward contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges, as defined by ASC 815. Derivative instruments are recorded as
other current assets or other current liabilities, according to the timing of the cash flows. As of March 31, 2026, the derivative instruments
are recorded as other current assets ($

Cross Industry Business: The Company’s solutions for the non-automotive verticals, including audio-video, industrial, machine vision and medical markets, that deliver superior, plug-and-play convergence and distribution of different interfaces, through a single long-distance category cable.
Automotive: Valens Automotive delivers safe & resilient high-speed in-vehicle connectivity for advanced car architectures, realizing the vision of connected and autonomous cars.
For the purpose of evaluating financial performance and allocating resources, the CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues, gross profit and operating loss by the two identified reportable segments, to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance. Assets information is not provided to the CODM and is not reviewed. Revenues and cost of goods sold are directly associated with the activities of a specific segment. Direct operating expenses, including general and administrative expenses, associated with the activities of a specific segment are charged to that segment. General and administrative expenses which cannot be attributed directly, are allocated evenly between segments. Other operating expenses are allocated to segments based on headcount ratio.
The CODM monitors the gross profit of each segment to analyze fluctuations relative to prior periods (cost reductions, change in product mix etc.).
The CODM uses segment operating profit
(loss) to evaluate income (loss) in deciding whether to reinvest profits into the segment.
