Strategic focus and technology direction

  • Edge AI now represents 80% of revenue, with a unified hardware-software platform targeting diverse markets such as automotive, IoT, enterprise security, drones, and edge infrastructure.

  • Continued investment in video+AI+low power applications is central to growth, with future expansion into non-video data anticipated.

  • Software is a key differentiator, with a 1:6 hardware-to-software engineering ratio and a focus on enabling customers to transition from CUDA to the company's SDK.

  • The company offers a scalable, white-box software stack for autonomous driving, aiming to address OEMs' software challenges and enable Level 2 to Level 4 solutions.

  • Power efficiency is emphasized as a competitive advantage, especially for edge infrastructure and on-prem solutions.

Market expansion and applications

  • Enterprise security, once the largest market, is now outpaced by growth in drones and edge infrastructure, both leveraging the same platform.

  • Drones are evolving from video capture to autonomous functions, with opportunities arising from regulatory changes and a growing U.S. market.

  • Edge infrastructure aggregates multiple camera feeds and enables AI upgrades for legacy devices, with significant potential in security and retail.

  • Home surveillance is seeing renewed opportunity as vision-language models move from cloud to edge, reducing costs and enabling new services.

  • Robotics, including mobile robots and AMRs, are a focus, with technology investments in autonomous driving being repurposed for broader robotic applications.

Business model and financial outlook

  • Willingness to trade some gross margin for higher revenue and operating leverage, especially with large customers in consumer and automotive sectors.

  • Consumer drone chips are positioned as high-value components in a growing market, with quality and scale being critical to compete against dominant players.

  • Commercial drone markets are more profitable but require scale to compete; coexistence with dominant suppliers is necessary.

  • Military applications are not directly targeted, though commercial-grade chips may be used by third parties.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
