Ouster (OUST) investor relations material

Revenue growth and product transition

• Achieved 14 consecutive quarters of revenue growth, reaching a $55M run rate with expectations for continued sequential product revenue increases in Q3 and beyond.

• Rev8 launch marks a significant product transition, with multimillion-dollar orders from both new and existing customers and early-stage volume production ramping up through Q3 and Q4.

• Rev8 is expected to become the core sensing platform for years, while REV7 will maintain a long tail in the product suite.

• Platform strategy includes integrating compute and software for application-specific solutions over the next few years.

Market adoption and verticals

• Industrial and smart infrastructure verticals are leading contributors, with adoption cycles moving from prototype to production and expanding use cases.

• End-to-end, no-code turnkey solutions are gaining traction, especially in smart infrastructure and DOT applications.

• Industrial deployments benefit from product durability and repeatability, smoothing revenue volatility.

Product differentiation and ecosystem

• Acquisition of Stereolabs expanded offerings from point LIDAR to a full platform including compute, software, and cameras.

• Rev8's native color (RGB) and long-range capabilities make it an obvious choice for customers, accelerating sales cycles and enabling large-scale deployments like Utah DOT's 160 intersections.

• Native color LIDAR, achieved at the silicon level, provides a significant competitive edge, with a projected 2–5 year head start over competitors.
