"We were pleased to see solid momentum with our multi-year contracted backlog of purchase orders growing to a record $42.9 million at quarter end alongside several key business milestones that strengthen our overall competitive position," commented Eyal Peso, Gauzy Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer. "Our customer General Motors has begun delivering Cadillacs with the largest ever smart glass panel in a vehicle that uses our SPD technology, marking another milestone in the EV sector. We launched a breakthrough smart glass product, a prefabricated smart glass stack, that will accelerate automotive OEM adoption of dynamic glazing. Additionally, we are expanding into the strategic high margin marine market following successful installation of our technology at the MSC terminal in Miami, and we are supporting commercial spaces for some of the biggest brands in the world, like Moderna."
"Importantly, we have seen some customers more than double orders for the year during the second quarter, and demand remains strong, however dynamics in the timing of our shipments are reflected in our results," Peso continued. "In light of that, we expect our full year results to be heavily weighted towards the second half."
Peso concluded, "We have a stronger balance sheet and record backlog that put us on firm footing into the second half. We are reaffirming our full year guidance, reflecting our confidence in our ability to execute on the substantial opportunities ahead. My conviction in Gauzy's strategic direction and growth remains as strong as ever, as evidenced by the significant purchase of shares I made during the quarter. We look forward to delivering on our goals and creating exceptional shareholder value."

Second Quarter 2025 Results
Revenues for the second quarter were $20.1 million compared to $24.4 million in the prior year quarter. The difference was primarily driven by multiple segments experiencing shifts in the timing of deliveries, which are not expected to impact full year deliveries.
Gross profit for the second quarter was $4.3 million compared to $6.6 million in the prior year quarter. Gross margin for the second quarter was 21.4% compared to 27.0% in the prior year quarter, primarily attributable to lower revenues over a fixed cost base, particularly in Aeronautics.
Total operating expenses for the second quarter were $16.8 million, compared to $14.5 million in the prior year quarter, mainly due to higher corporate expenses associated with being a public company versus a private company during the same quarter last year, as well as higher D&A and R&D.
Net loss for the second quarter was $10.7 million compared to $23.1 million in the prior year quarter, mainly due to a decrease in financial expenses and interest expense, partially offset by an increase in total operating expenses and a decrease in gross profit.
Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter was ($8.7) million compared to ($3.9) million in the prior year quarter, primarily driven by the same factors outlined above for gross profit and operating expenses.
