Arbe Announces Second Quarter 2026 Financial ResultsTEL AVIV, Israel, Aug. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Arbe Robotics Ltd. (NASDAQ: ARBE) (TASE: ARBE), a global leader in ultra-high-resolution radar solutions, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2026.  Recent Highlights
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."
Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results Highlights Revenues for Q2 2026 were $0.7 million, compared to $0.3 million in Q2 2025. Backlog as of June 30, 2026, amounted to $1 million. Gross loss for Q2 2026 was around $0, compared to a gross loss of $0.2 million in Q2 2025. Operating expenses in Q2 2026 were $9.8 million, compared to $11.3 million in Q2 2025. The lower expenses were primarily driven by lower share-based compensation expenses, reflecting both the lower grant-date fair values of equity awards issued during the period and the ongoing vesting of previously granted awards, some of which have now fully vested. The increased expenses due to the unfavorable exchange rate impact, was offset by a decrease in headcount as part of the cost-reduction measures taken this quarter, which are expected to be fully reflected by next quarter. Operating loss in Q2 2026 was $9.8 million, compared to an $11.5 million loss in Q2 2025. Net loss in Q2 2026 was reduced to $9.1 million, compared to a net loss of $10.2 million in Q2 2025. Adjusted EBITDA for Q2 2026, a non-GAAP measure that excludes expenses for non-cash share-based compensation and non-recurring items, was a loss of $8.7 million, compared with a loss of $8.9 million in Q2 2025. Management believes that this non-GAAP measurement is important in evaluating the Company's use of cash and in planning cash requirements in the coming periods.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity Highlights As of June 30, 2026, Arbe had $41.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits. As of June 30, 2026, Arbe had $40.5 million in shareholders' equity. The Company is in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in the convertible debentures and holds cash substantially above the minimum threshold.
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:
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.
