Cepton, Inc. ("Cepton") (NASDAQ:CPTN), a Silicon Valley innovator and leader in high performance lidar solutions, today announced its business updates and financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
"As we enter the fourth and final quarter of 2024, we are making significant strides in the commercialization of our lidar technology," said Jun Pei, Cepton's Co-Founder and CEO. "With an RFQ with a Top 10 global automotive OEM for our long-range lidar in its final stages and a growing pipeline of opportunities, we are well-positioned to further strengthen our leadership in the automotive lidar market. Additionally, the recently announced acquisition by Koito underscores our shared vision for long-term growth and innovation. As we work toward completing this transaction, our focus remains on executing our strategy, deepening OEM partnerships, and driving the adoption of our advanced lidar solutions across key industries."
Business Highlights
- On July 29, 2024, Cepton signed an Agreement and Plan of Merger providing for the acquisition by KOITO MANUFACTURING CO., LTD.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical or current fact included in this press release are forward-looking statements. The statements included above as well as any other statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as "estimate," "objective," "plan," "project," "forecast," "intend," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "seek," "target," "milestone," "designed to," "proposed" or other similar expressions that predict or imply future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. Cepton cautions readers of this press release that these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond Cepton's control, that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to statements regarding the Company's expectations, plans and opinions regarding the proposed transaction with Koito, statements, estimates and forecasts of financial and performance metrics, projections of market opportunity and market share, statements regarding potential benefits and the commercial attractiveness to its customers of Cepton's products and services, the potential success of Cepton's marketing and expansion strategies, and the potential for Cepton to achieve design awards.
These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this press release, and on the current expectations of Cepton's management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including (1) Cepton's proposed transaction with Koito, including its ability to close such proposed transaction in a timely manner or at all; (2) the conditions affecting the markets in which Cepton operates; (3) the success of Cepton's strategic relationships, including with Koito, which is not exclusive; (4) fluctuations in sales by Cepton's major customers; (5) fluctuations in capital spending in the automotive and smart infrastructure markets; (6) negative impact on the global economy and capital markets resulting from macroeconomic conditions such as inflation, the effects of public health crises, and the potential impact of geopolitical conflicts, such as the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East; (7) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (8) the possibility that Cepton's business may be adversely affected by other economic, business, or competitive factors; (9) the risk that current trends in the automotive and smart infrastructure markets decelerate or do not continue; (10) errors or material differences in Cepton's estimates and expectations for its financial performance and growth, including when Cepton will generate positive cash flow from operations; (11) risks relating to the uncertainty of projected financial and operating information, including whether Cepton will be able to achieve its target milestones, its pricing and sales volume targets, and win the engagements contemplated in its projected pipeline, and the ability of OEMs and other strategic partners to re-source or cancel vehicle or technology programs; (12) risks related to future market adoption of Cepton's offerings; (13) risks related to Cepton's marketing and growth strategies; (14) the effects of competition on Cepton's future business; (15) Cepton's ability to issue equity or equity-linked securities in the future; (16) Cepton's ability to raise funding on reasonable terms as necessary to develop its products in the timeframe contemplated by its business plan, and to comply with the terms of any restrictive, financial or other covenants in the agreements governing such funding, including the consent and other rights granted to Koito as part of Koito's convertible preferred stock investment; (17) Cepton's ability to execute its business plans and strategy; (18) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Cepton, including any related to the business combination with Growth Capital Acquisition Corp.; (19) risks related to the new series production award differing from Cepton's expectations, or that the arrangement can be terminated or may not materialize into a long-term contract partnership arrangement, and the new engineering services contract with Koito relating thereto; and (20) the other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the reports and documents Cepton files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including in its Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. If any of these risks materialize or any of Cepton's assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that Cepton does not presently know or that Cepton currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Cepton's expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this press release. Cepton anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause its assessments to change. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Cepton's assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this press release. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. Cepton undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.
Actual results, performance or achievements may, and are likely to, differ materially, and potentially adversely, from any projections and forward-looking statements and the assumptions on which those forward-looking statements were based. There can be no assurance that the data contained herein is reflective of future performance to any degree. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a predictor of future performance as projected financial information and other information are based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to various significant risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond Cepton's control.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Some of the financial information and data contained in this press release, such as Non-GAAP net loss and adjusted EBITDA, have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). Non-GAAP net loss is defined as GAAP net loss excluding stock-based compensation, gain from project cancellation cost recovery, contingent loss, non-recurring transaction expenses, gain on sales of property and equipment, gain or loss on changes in fair value of earnout liability and warrants, foreign currency transaction loss, net, and loss on extinguishment of debt. As a result of the cancellation of the GM series production award in December 2023, Cepton submitted a project investment cost recovery claim and realized a gain from project cancellation cost recovery in the nine months ended September 30, 2024. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, Cepton also incurred a contingent loss from the project loss claims from our contract manufacturers affected by the GM series production award cancellation. Both the gain from project cancellation loss recovery and the contingent loss from project loss claims are excluded from the calculation of Non-GAAP net loss. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as non-GAAP net loss before interest income or expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization.
Cepton believes these non-GAAP financial measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Cepton's financial condition and results of operations. Cepton believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating actual and projected operating results and trends in comparing Cepton's financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. Cepton also believes that adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and analysts in assessing our operating performance during the periods these charges were incurred on a consistent basis with the periods during which these charges were not incurred. Our presentation of adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an inference that our future results and financial position will be unaffected by unusual items. Cepton does not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and other amounts that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Cepton's financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and other amounts are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures.
