Exhibit 99.1
Foresight Announces Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results
NESS ZIONA, Israel — August 19, 2022 — Foresight Autonomous Holdings Ltd., an innovator in automotive vision systems (Nasdaq and TASE: FRSX) (“Foresight”), today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2022. Foresight ended the first half of 2022 with revenues of $248,000 and with $35.6 million in cash, cash equivalent, restricted cash and short-term deposits.
The Company reported a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) net loss of $10.1 million and a non-GAAP net loss of $9.7 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to a GAAP net loss of $3.2 million and a non-GAAP net loss of $2.7 million for the second quarter of 2021, reflecting an increase of 216% and 259%, respectively, resulting mainly from revaluation of the Company’s investment in Rail Vision Ltd (Nasdaq: RVSN) (“Rail Vision”) to its fair value, after Rail Vision’s initial public offering in April 2022.
“Foresight’s performance in the second quarter of 2022 was focused on demonstrating the broad viability of our stereoscopic vision technology for autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicle applications. We believe that the agreements we signed with leading Tier One suppliers, ZF North America Inc. and Hitachi Astemo Americas Inc., as well as the progress made with Elbit Systems Ltd. mark a significant milestone in our sales cycle, as we move forward from proof of concept (POC) projects to a co-development stage, getting us closer to the design win stage in which we aim to win a contract for mass production,” said Haim Siboni, Foresight’s CEO.
“Our key business achievements reveal significant interest across markets, industries and geographies. During the second quarter, Foresight signed agreements with multiple Tier One suppliers for passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, industrial technology, unmanned vehicles and vehicle-control systems. We believe that this diversity is a solid indication of the breadth and depth of Foresight’s total addressable market, and we expect to see continued interest in the second half of 2022 from industries including defense, transportation and agriculture.”
Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results
● | Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 amounted to $213,000. We did not generate revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The revenues were generated from a successful completion of several milestones in of the customization project with Elbit Systems Ltd. (Nasdaq: ELBT) in the amount of $188,000, and from a completion of the first milestone of a POC project with a leading tier one supplier in the amount of $25,000. |
● | Research and development (R&D) expenses, net for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $2,806,000, compared to $2,436,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase is attributed mainly to an increase in payroll and related expenses in the amount of $439,000. R&D expenses in the second quarter of 2022 were offset by participation from the European Horizon 2020 program in the amount of $89,000. |
● | Marketing and sales (S&M) expenses, net for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $605,000, compared to $489,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase is attributed mainly to an increase in exhibitions, conventions and travel expenses in the amount of $85,000. |
● | General and administrative (G&A) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $837,000, compared to $812,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. |
● | Finance expenses, net for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $5,991,000, compared to finance income, net of $574,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease is mainly attributed to expenses from the revaluation of the Company’s investment in Rail Vision to its fair value following its initial public offering on Nasdaq, in the amount of $5,588,000 and by exchange rate differences and other expenses in the amount of $403,000. |
● | GAAP net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $10,116,000, or $0.03 per ordinary share, compared to a GAAP net loss of $3,163,000, or $0.01 per ordinary share, for the three months ended June 30, 2021. |
● | Non-GAAP net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $9,663,000, or $0.03 per ordinary share, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $2,661,000, or $0.01 per ordinary share, in the same quarter last year. A reconciliation between GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss is provided in the financial statements that are part of this release. |
Balance Sheet Highlights
● | Cash, restricted cash and short-term deposits totaled $35.6 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $45.7 million as of December 31, 2021. |
● | GAAP shareholders’ equity totaled $37.4 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $48.6 million as of December 31, 2021. The decrease is attributed mainly to the net loss for the period. |

The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the company should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. Reconciliations between GAAP measures and non-GAAP measures are provided later in this press release.

Net cash provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2021, consisted of approximately $14,160 of net proceeds from the issuance of ordinary shares and/or ADSs, and proceeds from exercise of options and warrants.
On January 22, 2021, we entered into a sales agreement with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners, pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time, our ADSs. In that regard, we registered up to $60,000,000 of our ADSs on a Registration Statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-252334) for the sale under such sales agreement.

Current Outlook
We have financed our operations to date primarily through proceeds from sales of our ordinary shares and ADSs and warrants. We have incurred losses and generated negative cash flows from operations since January 2011. Since January 2011, we have not generated significant revenue from the sale of products, however, we expect to see an increase in our revenue from the sale of our products in the coming years, though there is no guarantee we will be successful in doing so.
As of June 30, 2022, our cash and cash equivalents including restricted cash and short-term bank deposits were approximately $35,632. We expect that our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits will be sufficient to fund our current operations through the second quarter of 2024.
Until we can generate significant recurring revenues and achieve profitability, we may need to seek additional sources of funds through the sale of additional equity securities, debt or other securities. Any required additional capital, whether forecasted or not, may not be available on reasonable terms, or at all. If we are unable to obtain additional financing or are unsuccessful in commercializing our products and securing sufficient funding, we may be required to reduce activities, curtail or even cease operations. In addition, our operating plans may change as a result of many factors that may currently be unknown to us, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:
● | the progress and costs of our research and development activities; |
● | the costs of manufacturing our products; |
● | the costs of filing, prosecuting, enforcing and defending patent claims and other intellectual property rights; |
● | the potential costs of contracting with third parties to provide marketing and distribution services for us or for building such capacities internally; and |
● | the magnitude of our general and administrative expenses. |

D. | Trend Information. |
The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted companies in Israel and around the world, and as its trajectory remains highly uncertain, we cannot predict the duration and severity of the outbreak and its containment measures. Further, we cannot predict impacts, trends and uncertainties involving the pandemic’s effects on economic activity, the size of our labor force, and the extent to which our income, profitability, liquidity, or capital resources may be materially and adversely affected. See also “Item 3.D. – Risk Factors– Risks Related to Our Business and Industry – We face business disruption and related risks resulting from the recent outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations” in our Annual Report.
E. | Critical Accounting Estimates. |
The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. A comprehensive discussion of our critical accounting estimates is included in “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section in our Annual Report, as well as our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto for the six months ended June 30, 2022, included elsewhere in this Report Form 6-K.
