Daphna Golden

Thank you, and welcome everyone to Valens Semiconductor's second quarter 2022 earnings call. With me today are Gideon Ben-Zvi, Chief Executive Officer; and Dror Heldenberg, Chief Financial Officer.

Earlier today, we issued a press release that is available on the Investor Relations section of our website under investors.valens.com. As a reminder, today's earnings call may include forward-looking statements and projections, which do not guarantee future events or performance. These statements are subject to the Safe Harbor language in today's press release. Please refer to our annual report on Form 20-F filed today with the SEC on March 2, 2022, for a discussion of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied. We do not undertake any duty to revise or update such statements to reflect new information, subsequent events, or changes in strategy.

We will be discussing certain non-GAAP measures on this call, which we believe are relevant in assessing the financial performance of the business and you can find reconciliations of these metrics within our earnings release. In the coming weeks, we’ll be in Chicago, Las Vegas and New York for investor conferences and meetings. If you're interested in meeting with us, please email me at investors@valens.com.

With that, I will now turn the call over to Gideon.

Gideon Ben-Zvi

Thanks, Daphna. And thank you everyone for joining our call. Earlier today, we reported quarterly results that exceeded our guidance. Our Q2 revenues reached a record high as we continued to meet the growing demand from our customers for audio-video automotive solutions. Q2 2022 quarterly revenues were a record of $22.5 million up 28% compared with Q2 2021. We also achieved better than anticipated gross margin and adjusted EBITDA.
