“I’m proud of our third quarter results, which set new record levels of revenue, gross margin, and adjusted EBITDA. Our customers continue to adopt our REV7 sensors to harness enhanced range, accuracy, and precision. More customers are moving into production, with robotics and smart infrastructure deals representing the largest wins during the quarter,” said Ouster CEO Angus Pacala. “The third quarter also reflected our focus on growing our software installed base. We achieved our highest level of software-attached sales to date, helping to enhance the efficiency and security of yard logistics and increase road safety around the world.”
Revenue in the third quarter was primarily driven by customers in the robotics and smart infrastructure verticals for use cases in perimeter security, mapping, and last mile delivery. GAAP gross margin improved by over 2400 basis points year over year and benefited from higher revenues, favorable product mix, and fewer costs related to inventory charges and purchase commitments. Non-GAAP gross margin increased to 45% compared to 33% in the third quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP gross margin excludes the impact of stock-based compensation expenses and certain other expenses outside of ordinary operations. During the quarter, Ouster repaid all outstanding balances on its revolving credit line utilizing cash on hand.
2024 Business Objective Updates
- Expand software solutions and grow the installed base
- Advance the development of digital lidar hardware
- Progress on the long-term financial framework
Expand software solutions and grow the installed base: In the third quarter, Ouster BlueCity achieved NEMA TS2 certification, the industry standard for safe traffic control, making it the first certified solution with Buy America(n) certified lidar. During the quarter, Ouster also integrated Ouster Gemini, its digital lidar perception platform, with Genetec Security Center, enabling customers to fuse lidar and video surveillance into a single interface for seamless security operations.
Advance the development of digital lidar hardware: During the third quarter, Ouster turned on its first “L4” powered OS sensor prototypes, which generated rich point clouds, achieving a major milestone in its next generation hardware. Development on the Company’s next generation “Chronos” chip remains on track. Both L4 and Chronos are expected to unlock new verticals while significantly enhancing the performance, reliability, and manufacturability of the Ouster product family.
Progress on the long-term financial framework: Ouster reached its target of 35-40% gross margin in the third quarter. The Company continues to execute on its path to profitability, and remains committed to deliver on its long-term framework of 30-50% annual revenue growth, keeping gross margin at 35-40%, and maintaining operating expenses at or below third quarter 2023 levels.
Fourth Quarter 2024 Outlook
For the fourth quarter of 2024, Ouster expects to achieve $29 million to $31 million in revenue.

The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements are based upon current plans, estimates and expectations of management that are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements.

Words such as “anticipate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “believe,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “plan,” “could,” “continue,” “target,” “contemplate,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “guidance,” “predict,” “possible,” “potential,” “pursue,” “likely,” and the negative of these terms and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, though not all forward-looking statements use these words or expressions. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding Ouster’s revenue guidance for the fourth quarter of 2024; anticipated new product launches and developments; Ouster’s future results of operations and financial position; the anticipated timing and development of Ouster’s next generation hardware and software solutions; the execution against the Company’s product roadmap and demand for products; the Company’s path to profitability and long-term financial framework; industry and business trends; Ouster’s business objectives, plans, strategic partnerships, and market growth; Ouster’s competitive market position; and Ouster’s participation in upcoming events and presentations, all constitute forward-looking statements.

Readers are urged to consider these factors carefully and in the totality of the circumstances when evaluating these forward-looking statements, and not to place undue reliance on any of them.

In addition, see information below concerning non-GAAP financial measures.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to its results determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), Ouster believes the non‑GAAP measures of Non-GAAP Gross Margin and Adjusted EBITDA are useful in evaluating its operating performance. Ouster calculates Non-GAAP Gross Profit as gross profit (loss) excluding amortization of acquired intangibles, certain excess and obsolete expenses and losses on firm purchase commitments, and stock-based compensation expense. Non-GAAP Gross Margin is calculated as Non-GAAP Gross Profit divided by revenues. Ouster calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net loss excluding interest expense (income), net, other expense (income), net, stock-based compensation expense, provision for income tax expense, goodwill impairment charges, restructuring costs excluding stock-based compensation expense, certain excess and obsolete expenses and loss on firm purchase commitments, amortization of acquired intangibles, depreciation expense, certain litigation and litigation related expenses, merger and acquisition related expenses. Ouster believes that Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Margin, and Adjusted EBITDA may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance and may be helpful in comparison with other companies, some of which use similar non‑GAAP information to supplement their GAAP results. Adjusted EBITDA is also used by the Board and management as a performance metric for compensation purposes. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non‑GAAP measures used by other companies. Reconciliation tables of the most comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures are included at the end of this press release.
