Techpoint, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Techpoint, Inc. (together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our”) was originally incorporated in California in April 2012 and reincorporated in Delaware in July 2017. The Company is a fabless semiconductor company that designs, markets and sells mixed-signal integrated circuits for multiple video applications in the security surveillance and automotive markets. The Company is headquartered in San Jose, California.

Basis of Consolidation and Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The functional currency of each of the Company’s subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Foreign currency gains or losses are recorded as other income (expense)income-net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.Operations and Comprehensive Income.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 20192020 contained in ourthe Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which only include normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods and are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year or for any other future annual or interim periods.

Revenue Recognition

The Company principally sells its products to distributors who, in turn, sell to original design manufacturers (“ODMs”ODM”), contract manufacturers and design houses. The Company accounts for revenue under ASCAccounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 (“ASC 606”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company satisfies its performance obligations and primarily recognizes revenue upon shipment, at which time control of its products is transferred to its customers. The Company applies the following five-step model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied.

Product revenues consistrevenue consists of sales of mixed-signal integrated circuits into the security surveillance and automotive markets. The Company generally requires advance payments from customers and records these advance payments, or contract liabilities, as customer deposits on its condensed consolidated balance sheet. Since the Company’s performance obligations relate to contracts with a duration of less than one year, the Company has elected to apply the optional exemption practical expedient provided in ASC 606 and is therefore not required to disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied at the end of the reporting period. The Company provides product assurance warranty only and does not offer warranties to be purchased separately. The Company does not offer variable consideration or other significant payment terms and allocates the transaction price to each distinct product based on a relative standalone selling price. Revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to ourthe customers, upon shipment, at which time the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s shipping terms are primarily FOB (free on board) shipping point, whereby legal title, risks and rewards of ownership, and physical possession are transferred to the customer upon shipment. Substantially all of the Company’s customers pay in advance of shipment, and no stock rotation, price protection or return rights are offered.


Use of Management’s Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates included in the condensed consolidated financial statements include inventory valuation and valuation allowance for recorded deferred tax assets, and stock-based compensation.assets. These estimates are based upon information available as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.


COVID-19

In March 2020,

Management is actively monitoring the World Health Organization characterized a recent pandemicimpact of respiratory illness caused by novel coronavirus disease, known as COVID-19 as a pandemic. The pandemic has resulted in government authorities implementing numerous measures to try to containon the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place or stay-at-home orders, and business shutdowns. For example, employees at our headquarters located in San Jose, California, are currently subject to a shelter-in-place order from the state government. Our offices in Japan, China, South Korea and Taiwan have also been impacted by COVID-19 and have been subject to various measures implemented by local governments to reduce the spread of COVID-19. These measures may adversely impact our employees andCompany’s financial condition, liquidity, operations, and the operations of our end-customers (including ourits significant end-customers), distributors, suppliers, industry, and suppliers, and may negatively impact our sales and marketing activities. For example, travel restrictions may prohibit our ability to conduct necessary face-to-face meetings with our customers. These measures by government authorities may remain in place for a significant period of time which could adversely affect our sales and marketing activities, product delivery schedule, and our business, financial condition and results of operations.workforce. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts ourthe Company’s business, prospects and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the pandemic, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating activities can resume. Management is actively monitoring In particular, as economies reopen there have been increases in demand for our products. Although the impact of COVID-19 onCompany continues to work with its suppliers as well as its manufacturing partners to secure additional capacity to meet the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, operations, customers, suppliers, industry, and workforce. increased demand, there can be no assurances that such resources will be readily available when needed. The Company has made estimates of the impact of COVID-19 within its financial statements and there may be changes to those estimates in future periods.

Credit Risk and Concentration of Customer and Supplier

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, investments, and trade receivables. Risks associated with cash and cash equivalents, and investments are mitigated by banking with, and investing in, creditworthy institutions. The Company generally requires advance payments from customers. The Company also performs credit evaluations of its customers and provides credit to certain customers in the normal course of business. The Company has not incurred bad debt write-offs during any of the periods presented.

For each significant customer, or distributor, and significant end-customer, revenue as a percentage of total revenue is as follows:

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018,December 2019, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-12, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes. The guidance in ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), which amends disclosure requirements2019-12 is required for fair value measurements by requiring new disclosures, modifying existing requirements, and eliminating others.The amendments are the result of a broader disclosure project, which aims to improve the effectiveness of disclosures. ASU No. 2018-13 is effective for fiscal yearsannual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years.2020, for public business entities, with early adoption permitted. The Company has determined that the new standard had noadopted this guidance on January 1, 2021. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on its disclosuresthe Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost.  It also eliminates the concept of other-than-temporary impairment and requires credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. These changes will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for SEC filers that are eligible to be smaller reporting companies under the SEC’s definition, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2019-12, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes. The guidance in ASU No. 2019-12 is required for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2020, for public business entities, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company measures financial assets and liabilities at fair value at each reporting period using a fair value hierarchy which requires usthe Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. A financial instrument’s classification within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Three levels of inputs may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1. Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2. Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3. Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

Operating leases

The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. The Company leases facilities under non-cancellablenon-cancelable lease agreements expiring through fiscal year 2022.

As the rate implicit in each lease agreement is not readily determinable, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate was used as the discount rate. The Company’s right-of-use assets and lease liabilities have been adjusted for initial direct costs and prepaid rent but do not reflect any options to extend or terminate its lease agreements, any residual value guarantees, or any leases that have not yet to be commenced.

As of June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to operating leases were as follows (in thousands):

Overview

Overview

We are a fabless semiconductor company that designs, markets and sells mixed-signal integrated circuits for multiple video applications in the security surveillance and automotive markets. Our integrated circuits are enabling the transition from standard definition or SD,(“SD”) video to high definition or HD,(“HD”) video in the security surveillance and automotive markets.

Our solutions take HD video signals from a camera and convert them into analog signals for reliable long-distance transmission, then convert the HD analog signal into the appropriate format for video processing and display. Our HD analog technology operates at the same 1080p HD resolution as digital HD, but processes video in an HD analog format and transmits the video in this same analog format, thereby eliminating the need for any compression or decompression. Our integrated circuits are based on our proprietary architecture and mixed signal technologies that we believe provide high video quality, enable high levels of integration and are cost effective. Our integrated circuits are used by security surveillance manufacturers, such as Hikvision in China, IDIS in South Korea and AVTech in Taiwan. These three manufacturers are each a leading security surveillance manufacturer in their respective countries.

We derive our revenue from sales of our mixed-signal integrated circuits into the security surveillance and automotive markets. We began shipping our products in 2013 and to date, we have sold over 153200 million integrated circuits. Our revenue was $14.6 million and $12.2$7.5 million for the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, respectively. Historically, we have derived a significant majority of our revenue from the security surveillance market. However, recently the mix of our revenue has changed. The security surveillance market accounted for a 51%57% and 64%47% of our revenue infor the sixthree months ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and fiscal year 2019,2020, respectively. Meanwhile, theThe automotive market accounted for a 49%43% and 36%53% of our revenue infor the sixthree months ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and fiscal year 2019,2020, respectively.  We recognized $7.5$8.3 million and $7.8$3.9 million of revenue on sales into the security surveillance market for the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, respectively. In addition, we recognized $7.1$6.3 million and $4.4$3.6 million of revenue on sales into the automotive market for the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, respectively. We recorded net income of $0.5$3.9 million and net loss of $0.3$0.1 million for the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, respectively.

We sell our products to distributors that fulfill third-party orders for our products. We also sell directly to ODMs.original design manufacturers (“ODM”). For the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, we derived substantially all of our revenue from products sold to distributors as compared to products sold to ODMsODM directly.

We undertake significant product development efforts well in advance of a product’s release and in advance of receiving purchase orders. Our product development efforts, which are focused on developing new designs with broad demand and potential for future derivative products, typically take from six to twenty-four months until production begins, depending on the product’s complexity. If we secure a design win, we believe the system designer is likely to continue to use the same or enhanced versions of our product across a number of their models, tending to extend the life cycles of our products. Conversely, if a competitor secures the design win, it may be difficult for us to sell into the end-customer’s application for an extended period. Our sales cycle typically ranges from one to three years for the automotive market and three to six months for the security surveillance market and one to three years for the automotive market. Due to the length of our product development and sales cycle, the majority of our revenue for any period is likely to be weighted toward products introduced for sale in the prior one or two years. As a result, our present revenue is not necessarily representative of future sales because our future sales are likely to be comprised of a different mix of products, some of which are now in the development stage.

We employ a fabless manufacturing strategy and use market-leading suppliers for all phases of the manufacturing process, including wafer fabrication, assembly, testing and packaging. This strategy significantly reduces the capital investment that would otherwise be required to operate manufacturing facilities of our own.

We have made significant investments in research and development in order to develop our products to attract and retain end-customers. Our research and development expense was $1.7$1.3 million and $1.6$2.2 million for the three months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, respectively and $3.9 million and $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our research and development expenses can vary from period-to-period and can be significantly impacted by the number of tape-outs and new products that we initiate in any given period. As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, we had 7978 employees, 25 of whom are in research and development. Our headquarters are located in San Jose, California, with additional operations in Japan, Taiwan, China and South Korea.

Effective October 9, 2019, the U.S. Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security (“BIS”) added Hikvision, a customer that represented 27%42% and 40%34% of our revenue for the three months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, respectively and 31% and 38% of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, to the BIS Entity List with a license requirement for all items subject to the Export Administration Regulations (“EAR”).  The BIS Entity List is a published list of the names of certain foreign persons, including businesses, research institutions, government and private organizations and individuals, that are subject to


specific governmental license requirements for the export, reexport and/or transfer of specified items. These license requirements could make it more difficult to ship, or in some cases, prevent the shipment of products to certain foreign persons named on the BIS Entity List. On June 12, 2020 Hikvision was identified by the U.S. Department of Defense in a report of “Communist Chinese military companies” operating directly or indirectly in the United States in accordance with the statutory requirement of Section 1237 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1999, as amended. On November 12, 2020, President Trump issued an Executive Order on Addressing the Threat from Securities Investments that Finance Communist Chinese Military Companies which prohibits any transaction in publicly traded securities, or any securities that are derivative of, or are designed to provide investment exposure to such securities, of any identified Communist Chinese military company. The Executive Order is not expected to directly impact our business.


We have taken action to confirm whether our products are subject to the EAR.  We have retained the continuous assistance of outside experts and, following the above announcement by BIS, performed a comprehensive review of our products and manufacturing operations.  Based on that review, we have concluded that our products are not subject to the EAR. Therefore, our products may continue to be shipped to Hikvision without a U.S. export license, even though Hikvision appears on the BIS Entity List.

The above conclusions are as of the date of filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  It is possible that changes in U.S. regulations or policies in the future may impose restrictions, including the imposition of license requirements or even a full or partial prohibition, on our sale of products to Hikvision.

Key Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

The following are key factors that impact our results of operations:

 

COVID-19 Pandemic. In December 2019, a respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) was reported in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China, and in March, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As such, it is uncertain as to the full magnitude that the pandemic will have on our financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations. Management isWe are actively monitoring the impact of COVID-19 on our financial condition, liquidity, operations, end-customers (including our significant end-customers), distributors, suppliers, industry, and workforce. This includes monitoringThe extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business, prospects and results from new information that may emerge concerning COVID-19of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including, but not limited to, the duration and anyspread of the pandemic, its severity, the actions taken to contain the virus or treat COVID-19,its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating activities can resume. In particular, as economies reopen there have been increases in demand for our products. Although we continue to work with our suppliers as well as our manufacturing partners to secure additional capacity to meet the economic impact on our customers and markets.increased demand, there can be no assurances that such resources will be readily available when needed. We have made estimates of the impact of COVID-19 within our financial statements and there may be changes to those estimates in future periods.

The COVID-19 pandemic will have an impact on our business, that of our customers and suppliers and how we execute our business in 2020. The pandemic has resulted in government authorities implementing numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place or stay-at-home orders, and business shutdowns. For example, employees at our headquarters located in San Jose, California, have been subject to a shelter-in-place order from the state government since March 2020. Our offices in Japan, China, South Korea and Taiwan have also been impacted by COVID-19 and have been subject to various measures implemented by local governments to reduce the spread of COVID-19. These measures may adversely impact our employees and operations and the operations of our end-customers (including our significant end-customers), distributors and suppliers, and may negatively impact our sales and marketing activities. These measures by government authorities may remain in place for a significant period of time and they are likely to continue to adversely affect our sales and marketing activities, product delivery schedule, and our business, financial condition and results of operations.  Despite these limitations, we have been able to secure products from our suppliers and fulfill our customers’ purchase orders during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Our security surveillance market has been and is expected to continue to be affected by the weakness in the end markets in North and South Americas, the Middle East, and India due to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic in those markets. While there have been impacts to our security surveillance revenues we believe this will be partially mitigated by revenues in the automotive market due to demand increase associated with the usual seasonal production cycle in the automotive industry in the second half of the year and multiple new design-wins going into production that we obtained from automotive manufacturers prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

In the future, we plan to take several actions to address the potential COVID-19 disruption to our operations, which include the following priorities and actions:

Health and Safety

The health and well-being of our employees, customers and supply partners is our top priority.

We have implemented strict measures to ensure and maintain safety, including working remotely where possible and social distancing.

We are closely monitoring rapidly evolving conditions and adhering to local, state and federal guidelines.

Business Continuity

We have implemented and continue to adjust comprehensive business continuity plans in response to COVID-19 to ensure that we are able to deliver for our customers and continue to work toward profitability.


We are working closely with our supply partners globally to maintain adequate inventory levels, as our suppliers continue to support the health and safety of their employees.

We are working to ensure demand continuity for our products among us, our supply partners, our manufacturers and our customers or their contract manufacturing partners around the world.  

Financial Structure

We believe our balance sheet and liquidity position provide the flexibility needed to support our operations during this pandemic.

We have taken and will continue to take precautionary steps, as required, to maintain our financial position including, but not limited to, managing operating expenses prudently, deferring non-essential costs.

Ability to attract and retain customers that make large orders. While we expect the composition of our end-customers to change over time, our business and operating results depend on our ability to continually target new and retain existing end-customers that make large orders. For the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, Hikvision, the largest security surveillance manufacturer in China and one of our end-customers, accounted for 31%42% and 38%34% of our revenue, respectively. Although large customers can help us increase our revenue and improve our results of operations, reliance on large customers is a risk to our business. For example, Section 889 of the 2019 National Defense Authorization Act (“NDAA”) could adversely impact our business with Hikvision. Section 889(a)(1)(A) went into effect on August 13, 2019 and prohibits U.S. Government agencies from procuring or obtaining equipment or services that use covered telecommunications equipment or services as a substantial or essential component or critical technology, including certain video surveillance products or telecommunications equipment and services produced or provided by Hikvision.  On July 14, 2020, the U.S. Government issued an interim final rule that implements Section 889(a)(1)(B) effective as of August 13, 2020.  This rule prohibits the U.S. Government from entering into contracts with persons who use covered telecommunications equipment or services as a substantial or essential component of any system, or as critical technology as part of any system, which again includes certain Hikvision video surveillance products. Although Section 889 does not prohibit commercial sales of video surveillance products by Hikvision in the U.S., which we understand is the predominant business Hikvision does in the U.SU.S. with video surveillance products that incorporate our products, the impact of these new regulations and the uncertainty of U.S. and China trade relations may adversely impact our business in the future with Hikvision and other significant customers.

Design wins with new and existing customers. We believe our products provide high-quality HD video with an attractive combination of characteristics, at a lower overall cost than competing solutions. In order to get our solutions designed into our end-customer’s products, we work with our end-customers and potential end-customers to understand their product roadmaps and strategies. We consider design wins to be critical to our future success. We define a design win as the successful completion of the evaluation stage, where an end-customer has tested our product, verified that our product meets its requirements and qualified our integrated circuits for their products. We have secured design wins with major automotive manufacturers to sell our solutions to them for automotive backup cameras. The revenue that we generate, if any, from each design win can vary significantly. Our long-term sales expectations are based on forecasts from end-customers, internal estimates of end-customer demand factoring in expected time to market for end-customer products incorporating our solutions and associated revenue potential and internal estimates of overall demand based on historical trends.

Pricing, product cost and gross margins of our products. Our gross margin has been and will continue to be affected by a variety of factors, including the timing of changes in pricing, shipment volumes, new product introductions, changes in product mixes, changes in our purchase price of fabricated wafers and assembly and test service costs, manufacturing yields and inventory write downs, if any. In general, newly introduced products and products with higher performance and more features tend to be priced higher than older, more mature products. Average selling prices in the semiconductor industry typically decline as products mature. Consistent with this historical trend, we expect that the average selling prices of our products will decline as they mature. In the normal course of business, we will seek to offset the effect of declining average selling prices on existing products by reducing manufacturing costs and introducing new and higher value-added products. If we are unable to maintain overall average selling prices or offset any declines in average selling prices with realized savings on product costs, our gross margin will decline.


Product adoption and safety regulations in the automotive market. We have secured design wins with major automotive equipment manufacturers to sell our solutions to them for automotive backup cameras. Certain jurisdictions, including the United States, have passed laws and regulations requiring that all new cars sold after a certain date must contain back-up cameras including with respect to cars sold in the United States after May 2018. If these jurisdictions do not maintain and implement these rules, or if back-up cameras are not put into automobiles sold in other locations as well, or do so more slowly than we expect, our financial results could be adversely affected.


Investment in growth. We have invested, and intend to continue to invest, in expanding our operations, increasing our headcount, developing our products and differentiated technologies to support our growth and expanding our infrastructure. We expect our total operating expenses to increase significantly in the foreseeable future to meet our growth objectives. We plan to continue to invest in our sales and support operations throughout the world, with a particular focus in the near term of adding additional sales and field applications personnel in the Asia-Pacific region to further broaden our support and coverage of our existing end-customer base, in addition to developing new end-customer relationships and generating design wins. We also intend to continue to invest additional resources in research and development to support the development of our products and differentiated technologies. Any investments we make in our sales and marketing organization or research and development will occur in advance of experiencing any benefits from such investments, and the return on these investments may be lower than we expect. In addition, as we invest in expanding our operations into new areas internationally, our business and results will become further subject to the risks and challenges of operations in those locations, including potentially higher operating expenses and the impact of legal and regulatory developments.

Components of Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations

Revenue

We derive substantially all of our revenue through the sale of our products to distributors who, in turn, sell to our end-customers, which consists of ODMs,ODM, contract manufacturers and design houses. Revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 606 after we (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) satisfy the performance obligation when control is transferred to the customer.

Cost of revenueRevenue

Cost of revenue primarily consists of costs paid to our third-party manufacturers for wafer fabrication, assembly and testing of our products. To a lesser extent, cost of revenue also includes write-downs of inventory for excess and obsolete inventory, depreciation of test equipment, and expenses relating to manufacturing support activities, including personnel-related costs, logistics and quality assurance and shipping.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation and associated costs of employees engaged in research and development, contractor costs, tape-out costs, development testing and evaluation costs, and depreciation expense. Before releasing new products, we incur charges for mask sets, prototype wafers and mask set revisions, which we refer to as tape-out costs. Tape-out costs cause our research and development expenses to fluctuate because they are not incurred uniformly every quarter. We expect our research and development costs to increase in absolute dollars in the future as we increase our investment in new product developmentsdevelopment and headcount to support our development efforts.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs for our sales, business development, marketing, and applications engineering activities, promotional and other marketing expenses, and travel expenses. We expect selling expenses to increase in absolute dollars for the foreseeable future as we continue to expand our sales teams and increase our marketing activities.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs, consulting expenses, professional fees and facility costs. Professional fees principally consist of legal, audit, tax and accounting services. We expect general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars for the foreseeable future as we hire additional personnel, make improvements to our infrastructure and incur significant additional costs for the compliance requirements of operating as a public company,US Company that is publicly traded in Japan, including higher legal, insurance and accounting expenses, particularly with respect to operating as a U.S. company that is publicly traded in Japan.expenses. Personnel-related costs, including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stock-based compensation, are the most significant component of each of selling expenses and general and administrative expenses.


Income Tax Provision

The provision for income taxes consists of our estimated federal, state and foreign income taxes based on our pre-tax income. Our provision differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to the research and development tax credits, foreign derived intangible income deduction, non-deductible stock-based compensation, international tax reform provisions, and tax benefits from stock-option exercises and dispositions.

Revenue decreased $0.1increased $7.0 million, or 1%94%, for the three months ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. This was mainlyprimarily due to a $0.8$4.3 million decreaseincrease in security surveillance market revenue as a result of a 23% decrease133% increase in the volume of shipment. This decrease was partially offset byshipments and a $0.7$2.7 million increase in automotive market revenue due to a 77%an 82% increase in volume of shipments, partially offset by a decrease in average selling price attributable to product mix.

Revenue increased $2.4 million, or 20%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. This was mainly due to a $2.8 million increase in automotive market revenue due to a 117% increase in volume of shipments offset by a decrease in average selling price attributable to product mix. This increase was partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in security surveillance camera market revenue driven by a 5% decrease in volume of shipments.

Recently, our security surveillance market has been negatively affected by the weakness in the end markets in North and South Americas, the Middle East, and India due to the impact of COVID-19 in those markets.

 

We have determined that pricing of our products remains stable in our target markets.  Fluctuation in our overall average selling price is directly attributable to changes in product mix given the natural pricing variation of the products in our portfolio. When the product mix shifts towards the higher priced products in our portfolio, the average selling price will be higher than when the product mix shifts towards the lower price point products.

Cost of revenue decreased due to a $0.2 million decrease in period costsincreased primarily as a result of the net utilization of previously reserved inventory and a reduction in warranty exposure. This decrease in reserves positively impacted gross margin.

Cost of revenue increased by $0.6 million, or 10%, and gross margin increased from 51% to 55% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. Cost of revenue increased due to a 31% of110% increase in volume of shipments. This increase was partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease due to a decrease in inventory write-down, increased utilization of previously reserved inventory, and a reduction in warranty exposure. Gross margin was positivelynegatively impacted by the increase in volume of shipments and product mix.

We expect gross margins to fluctuate in future periods due to changes in customer and product mix, average unit selling prices, manufacturing costs, adjustments to inventory valuation, if any, and end market product demand.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary use of cash is to fund our operations as we continue to grow our business. Cash used to fund operating expenses is impacted by the timing of when we pay expenses, as reflected in the changes in our outstanding accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Our cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments as of June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 were $20.8$35.4 million. We believe our existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and cash we expect to generate from operations, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our growth rate, the timing and extent of our spending to support research and development activities, the timing and cost of establishing additional sales and marketing capabilities, the introduction of new and enhanced products and our costs to implement new manufacturing technologies or potentially acquire and integrate other companies or assets. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us or at all. Any debt financing obtained by us in the future could also involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital-raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. Additionally, if we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity, convertible debt securities or other securities convertible into equity, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution in their percentage ownership, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of our common stock. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to grow or support our business and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited.

Operating Activities

Our primary source of cash from operating activities has been from cash collections from our customers. We expect cash inflows from operating activities to be affected by fluctuations in sales. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities have been for personnel costs and investments in research and development and sales and marketing.

During the sixthree months ended June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, net cash used inprovided by operating activities was $1.2$5.9 million, primarily due to net income of $0.5$3.9 million and non-cash charges of $1.5$0.8 million primarily driven byattributable to stock-based compensation, noncash lease expense, and depreciation and amortization, and noncash lease expense, offset bycombined with net cash outflow usedinflow from changes in operating assets and liabilities of $3.2$1.2 million. The net cash outflow usedinflow from changes in operating assets and liabilities was primarily dueattributable to a $1.1$2.1 million cash outflow ininflow from customer depositdeposits due to timing of customer pre-payments, a $1.1 million cash inflow in accounts payable due to timing of vendor payments, partially offset by a $1.4 million cash outflow in inventory as units manufactured during the period and on hand were in excess of product sales during the period to support future demand, a $0.4 million cash outflow in accrued expenses due to timing of services performed, and a $0.2 million cash outflow in other liabilities and the renewals of operating leases.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash used in operating activities was $0.8 million, primarily due to net income of $0.1 million and non-cash charges of $0.6 million primarily attributable to stock-based compensation, noncash lease expense, and depreciation and amortization, offset by net cash outflow from changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1.5 million. The net cash outflow from changes in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a $0.9 million cash outflow in customer deposit due to timing of customer pre-payments, $0.7 million cash outflow in accrued expenses due to timing of serviceservices performed, and a $0.4 million cash outflow in accounts payable due to timing of vendor payments.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash provided by operating activities was $0.5 million, primarily due to $0.3 million of net loss, non-cash charges of $1.3 million primarily driven by stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, inventory valuation adjustment and noncash lease expense, and cash outflow used in the change in net operating assets and liabilities of $0.5 million. The cash outflow used in the change in net operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a $1.8 million cash


outflow in inventory as units manufactured during the period and on hand were in excess of product sales during the period and a $0.2 million cash outflow in lease liabilities due to timing of lease payments,support future demand, partially offset by a $1.1 million cash inflow in customer deposits due to timing of customer pre-payments and a $0.4$0.5 million cash inflow in accounts payable due to timing of customer collections.vendor payments.

Investing Activities

During the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2021, cash provided by investing activities was $5.7 million, primarily attributable to proceeds from maturities of debt securities.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash used in investing activities was $1.9$0.9 million primarily due to $5.1$2.0 million cash outflow used to purchase debt securities and a $0.2$0.1 million cash outflow due to purchases of property and equipment, partially offset by a $3.5$1.3 million cash inflow due to proceeds from maturities of debt securities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, cash used in investing activities was $0.2 million due to purchases of property and equipment.

Financing Activities

During the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, cash provided by financing activities was approximately $41,000 and $0.1 million, and $35,000, respectively, primarily due to net proceeds from the exercise of stock options, partially offset by payments for shares withheld for tax withholdings on vesting of restricted stock units, respectively.units.

Off BalanceOff-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the periods presented, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

Critical Accounting Policies, Significant Estimates and Judgments

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates, assumptions and judgments on an ongoing basis. Our estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Different assumptions and judgments would change the estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements, which, in turn, could change the results from those reported. Please see Note 1 of Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a summary of significant accounting policies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risk from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. We seek to minimize these risks through regular operating activities. We do not purchase, hold or sell derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Foreign exchange rates

We transact business globally and are subject to risks associated with fluctuating foreign exchange rates. Substantially all of our revenue was derived from sales outside of the U.S. in the three months ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and 2019 and the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.2020. This revenue is generated in U.S. dollars with sales through distributors worldwide. Our operating expenses are denominated in the currencies of the countries in which our subsidiaries are located and may be subject to fluctuations due to


changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To date, we have not entered into any hedging contracts, but may elect to do so in the future. A hypothetical increase or decrease of 10% in foreign exchange rates for the three months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020 and 2019 and the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 would not have resulted in a significant increase or decrease in revenue or net income during that period.

The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for all of our foreign operations. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured into the functional currency of the subsidiary at the balance sheet date. The gains and losses from remeasurement of foreign currency denominated balances into the functional currency of the subsidiary are included in net of otherOther income (expense)– net on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).Income.

Interest rates

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our cash, cash equivalents and investments. Our cash, cash equivalents and investments consist primarily of cash, money market funds, corporate notes and bonds, and commercial paper.  The primary objectives of our investment activities are the preservation of capital, the maintenance of liquidity, and capturing a market rate of return.  We seek to minimize risk by investing cash in excess of our operating needs in high-quality instruments issued by highly creditworthy financial institutions. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. Due to the nature of these instruments, we believe that we do not have any material exposure to changes in the fair value of our investment portfolio as a result of changes in interest rates. Decreases in interest rates, however, would reduce future interest income.

With the amount of cash, cash equivalents and investments that we maintained at June 30, 2020, aA hypothetical increase or decrease of one percentage point, or 100 basis points,10% in interest rates for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 would not have hadresulted in a material effect on oursignificant increase or decrease in cash, and cash equivalents or the fair value of our investment portfolio.during those periods.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on management’s evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at a reasonable assurance level.


In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Management continues to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. Additionally, we have undertaken measures to protect our employees, suppliers, and customers, including encouraging, and in many cases requiring employees to work remotely as appropriate. We have also modified some of our internal controls procedures, but those changes have not been significant and have not materially affected and are not reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

WeAlthough we are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings, that we believe to be material to our business or financial condition. From time to timeand no legal proceeding is currently threatened against us, we may become party to various litigation matters andbe subject to legal proceedings, claims that ariseand litigation, including intellectual property litigation, arising in the ordinary course of business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes and are not predictable with assurance. We accrue amounts that we believe are adequate to address any liabilities related to legal proceedings and other loss contingencies that we believe may result in a probable loss that is reasonably estimable.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

Except for the risk factor set forth below, there have been no material changes to the previously disclosed risk factors discussed in Part 1 “Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020.

We face risks relatedGlobal shortages in manufacturing capacities could interrupt or negatively affect our operations, increase cost to health epidemics, including the COVID-19 pandemic, which could have a material adverse effect onmanufacture and negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We face various risks related

Recent sharp increases in demand for semiconductor products have resulted in a global shortage of manufacturing capacities as semiconductor suppliers have been unable to public health issues, including epidemics, pandemics, and other outbreaks, including the recent pandemic of respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus known as COVID-19, which the World Health Organization characterized as a pandemic in March 2020. The impact of COVID-19, including changes in consumer and business behavior, pandemic fears and market downturns, and restrictions on business and individual activities, has created significant volatilityrapidly respond to increased demand. Consequently, we may experience increases in the global economy and led to reduced economic activity.

The pandemic has resulted in government authorities implementing numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place or stay-at-home orders, and business shutdowns. For example, employees at our headquarters located in San Jose, California, have been subject to a shelter-in-place order from the state government since March 2020. Our offices in Japan, China, South Korea and Taiwan have also been impacted by COVID-19 and have been subject to various measures implemented by local governments to reduce the spread of COVID-19. These measures may adversely impact our employees and operations and the operations of our end-customers (including our significant end-customers), distributors and suppliers, and may negatively impact our sales and marketing activities. For example, travel restrictions may prohibit our ability to conduct necessary face-to-face meetings with our customers. These measures by government authorities may remain in place for a significant period of time and they are likely to continue to adversely affect the progress of our research and development projects, our sales and marketing activities, product delivery schedule, and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The spread of COVID-19 has caused us to modify our business practices (including restriction on employee travel, mandating that all non-essential personnel in our headquarters to work from home, temporary closures of our offices, and cancellation of physical participation in sales activities, meetings, events and conferences), and we may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, end-customers, distributors and suppliers. There is no certainty that such actions will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus or otherwise be satisfactory to government authorities. If significant portions of our workforce are unable to work effectively, including due to illness, quarantines, social distancing, government actions or other restrictions in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, our operations will be adversely impacted.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business, prospects and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the pandemic, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating activities can resume. The COVID-19 pandemic could cause fluctuations in foreign currency markets, impact the availability of future borrowings, increase the cost of borrowings, increase credit risks of our customers, disrupt supply and limit the ability of third party suppliers’, manufacturers’ and subcontractors’ abilitycosts to manufacture our products in time.and may not be able to manufacture and deliver all of the orders placed by our customers. We are not able to foresee when the current shortage of manufacturing capacity will subside. If we are unable to secure manufacturing capacities from our current subcontractors, our ability to deliver our products to our customers may also experiencebe negatively impacted. Also, our subcontractors may increase their fees, which would lead to an increase in the cost of materials usedour manufacturing costs that we may not be able to fully pass to our products. Even aftercustomers, resulting in increased operating costs and lower gross margins. In addition, such a shortage could lengthen our products’ manufacturing, assembly and testing cycle and cause a delay in the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience an adverse impactshipment of our products to our business ascustomers. This could ultimately lead to a resultloss of its global economic impact, including any recession that has occurred or may occur in the future.

Specifically, difficult macroeconomic conditions, such as decreases in per capita income and level of disposable income, increased and prolonged unemployment or a decline in consumer confidence as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as reduced spending by businesses and end-customers, could have a material adverse effect on the demand for our products. In addition, under difficult economic conditions, potential end-customers may seek to reduce discretionary spending by forgoing products that incorporate our solutions or our customers may seek to reduce spending by choosing alternative products. Because a significant portionsales of our revenue is concentrated in Asia, decreased demand forproducts, harm our products in Asiareputation and competitive position, and our revenues could have a disproportionately negative impact on our business and financial results. Currently, our customers in Asia are experiencing weakness in their end-markets in North and South Americas, the Middle East, and India due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

There are no comparable recent events which may provide guidance as to the effect of the spread of COVID-19 and a pandemic, and, as a result, the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic or a similar health epidemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of COVID-19’s impact on our business, our operations, or the global economy as a whole. However, the effects could have a material impact on our results of operations, and we will continue to monitor the situation closely.
