Pradeep Srinivasan will be senior VP of the new unit; Aeva is in talks with several potential data center customers, expanding its addressable market beyond sensing. » Plus sur de.investing.com

Aeva Technologies raised $115 million to accelerate commercialization of its LiDAR sensors. Revenue in the first quarter rose 86% to $6.3 million, driven mainly by service revenues; product sales remain stagnant. The company delivered production-ready sensors to Daimler Truck and one of the ten largest European passenger car manufacturers, is working with Nvidia and Nikon, and is expanding into the defense and traffic markets. Despite progress, adjusted EBIT losses, negative operating cash flow and a thin net cash position remain key risks for further valuation. » Plus sur finanzen.net
