(NYSE: OUST) (“Ouster” or the “Company”), a leading provider of high-resolution digital lidar sensors for the industrial, smart infrastructure, robotics, and automotive industries, today announced financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2021.\n\nSecond Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights\n\n\n$7.4 million in revenue, up 72% year over year, and up 11% from first quarter 2021.\n\n\n\n26% gross margins, up from 9% in second quarter 2020 and consistent with first quarter 2021.\n\n\n\nShipped over 1,460 sensors, an increase of 342% year over year, and a 49% increase over first quarter 2021.\n\n\n\nIncreased the total number of Strategic Customer Agreements to 53, collectively representing over $422 million in contracted revenue opportunity.1\n\n\n\nNet loss increased to $32.0 million, compared to $11.3 million in second quarter 2020 and $21.0 million in first quarter 2021.\n\n\n\nAdjusted EBITDA loss increased to $14.1 million, up from $9.3 million year over year and $10.0 million in first quarter 2021.\n\n\nRevenue growth was driven by the increases in sales volume compared to the first quarter of 2021.
