Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections, and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward looking statements included in this press release include statements about the Company’s products, the adaptability of those products, and the ability of these products to meet the requirements for multiple applications, among others. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this press release. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as and must not be relied on by an investor as a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction, or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are very difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from the assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of AEye. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ from the forward-looking statements in this press release, including but not limited to: (i) the risks that the Company will be unable to attend some or all of the 2022 Consumer Electronics Show due to recent or yet unannounced changes in protocols related to the COVID-19 pandemic, or the potential cancellation of the 2022 Consumer Electronics Show, in whole or in part; (ii) the risks that the Company’s products will be unable to sufficiently adapt through software or be unable to sufficiently tailor the product’s output to meet the requirements of customers in the automotive, mobility, or industrial markets; (iii) the risks that the Company’s demonstrations will not sufficiently translate to real world scenarios the product is intended to address; (iv) the risks that the Company will be unable to deliver products to its customers as quickly as anticipated, or at all; (v) the risks that the Company’s unique approach to lidar sensing will not result in a commercial product or, if a commercial product is launched, that it is accepted by the market; (vi) the risks that the Company will be unable to successfully leverage AI-driven software to sufficiently “steer” the lidar in real time; (vii) the risks that the Company’s products will not be viewed as sufficiently future-proof by the market, or be able to sufficiently evolve through software updates to meet our customer’s changing requirements or technology needs over time; (viii) the risks that Continental’s HRL131 product will not be accepted in the marketplace; (ix) the risks that Continental’s HRL131 product may not be fully customizable to adapt to customer requirements as outlined by the customer; (x) the risks that Continental’s planned start of volume production will not commence in 2024, or ever; (xi) the risks that the Company’s licenses of its technology to Tier 1 automotive suppliers, such as Continental, will result in commercial products or revenue to the Company; (xii) the risks that the Company’s product is not found by the marketplace to uniquely drive innovation expected by customers; (xiii) the risks that the Company will be successful in reducing the cost of its products over time sufficient to meet the demands of the market; (xiv) the risks that our products will not meet the specific needs of our customers; (xv) the risks that the type of flexibility that our system is intended to address will be a requirement of our customers; (xvi) the risks that lidar adoption occurs slower than anticipated or fails to occur at all; (xvii) the risks that AEye’s products will not meet the diverse range of performance and functional requirements of AEye’s target markets and customers; (xviii) the risks that AEye’s products will not function as anticipated by AEye or by AEye’s target markets and customers; (xix) the risks that AEye may not be in a position to adequately or timely address either the near or long-term opportunities that may or may not exist in the evolving autonomous transportation industry; (xx) the risks that laws and regulations are adopted impacting the use of lidar that AEye is unable to comply with, in whole or in part; (xxi) changes in competitive and regulated industries in which AEye operates, variations in operating performance across competitors, and changes in laws and regulations affecting AEye’s business; (xxii) the risks that AEye is unable to adequately implement its business plans, forecasts, and other expectations, and identify and realize additional opportunities; and (xxiii) the risks of downturns and a changing regulatory landscape in the highly competitive and evolving industry in which AEye operates.
