InnovizOne-related sales grew by 48 percent to $682 thousand in Q1 2021, accounting for 94 percent of total revenues, relative to $459 thousand in Q1 2020, accounting for 55 percent of total revenues.

Innoviz expects to spend 80 percent of operational costs on research and development in 2021, with the remaining largely going toward business development and marketing efforts.
- At the end of March 2021, Innoviz had $199.1 million in cash, up from $50.0 million at the end of December 2020.
