Forward-Looking Statements

This presentation contains forward-looking statements that are subject to many risks and uncertainties. All statements made in this presentation other than statements

of historical facts are forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements regarding Ambarella’s strategy, future operations, financial targets, future

revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives for future operations, future product introductions, future rate of our revenue growth, the size of markets

addressed by the company's solutions and the growth rate of those markets, technology trends, our ability to address market and customer demands and to timely

develop new or enhanced solutions to meet those demands, our ability to achieve design wins, and our ability to retain and expand our customer and partner

relationships.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "would," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes,"

"estimates," "projects," "predicts," "potential," or the negative of those terms, and similar expressions and comparable terminology intended to identify forward-looking

statements. We have based forward-looking statements largely on our estimates of our financial results and our current expectations and projections about future

events, markets and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short term and long-term business

operations and objectives, and financial needs as of the date of this presentation. Although these forward-looking statements are based upon information available at the

time the statements are made and reflect management’s good faith beliefs, forward-looking statements inherently involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and

other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from anticipated future results. Important factors that could cause actual

results to differ materially from expectations are disclosed in Ambarella's annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports and Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and

Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), particularly in the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of

Operations.” You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. We do not undertake to

update or revise any forward-looking statements after they are made, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by

applicable law. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for management to

predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ

materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and

circumstances discussed in this presentation may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-

looking statements.

Before you invest, you should read the annual and quarterly reports and other documents Ambarella has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the

company and its ordinary shares. Additional information will also be set forth in Ambarella's future quarterly and annual reports and other filings made with the SEC from

time to time. You may access these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC web site at www.sec.gov.

- Approach followed by Ambarella when designing the first encoding chip family

- Followed also for CV chip family:- 3 ys of sw design, implementation, and on-field testing before selecting hw acceleratorss

- CV1 evaluated over a full life cycle (from design to full implementation on autonomous cars); CV2 design then based on real feedback

- Careful choice of most used / heavy CV blocks, especially for ADAS/AV:- includes key technologies for future cars, like Stereo and CNN and their enablers

- CVflow architecture:- based on specific optimizations to make a very efficient use of space and resources,

leading to limited power consumption and high performance

- At the same time, CVflow is easy thanks to conversion tools to port from usual environments into CV chips

• Vision has been improving but:• Needs more performance to handle L2+ and other advanced applications

• GPU based hardware too expensive and too high power

• Game changers: • New higher resolution 4k (8 Mpxl) and up image sensors

• Power efficient/cost effective deep learning

• Stereo to improve robustness over mono and reduce the number of lidar used today

• Moving from low to high resolution brings additional challenges Ambarella solved:• Higher performance processing requirement with low power and cost

• Advanced image processing for low light performance

• Higher sensitivity to thermal cycles and vibrations handled by autocalibration

Computer Vision: the game changers

9AMBARELLA.COM COPYRIGHT AMBARELLA 2019

- Working on stereo for 20+ years- Selection of proper algorithm and on-chip porting as a building block

- Advantages (vs LiDAR):- Provides much denser 3D distance measurements

- Perfect alignment with image data

- Much lower cost and much easier installation

- Game changers:- 4K resolution, low power consumption, and low light capability

- Autocalibration provides robust solution and saves time on installation

- Applications: - developed for automotive, but applicable to many fields where 3D perception is key:

robotics (consumer and pro), automation, logistics, agricultural, earth moving, mining,…

Ambarella Stereovision Technology

10AMBARELLA.COM COPYRIGHT AMBARELLA 2019

- The higher the automation level (L1,… L5), the denser and more accurate the required

perception

- High levels also require redundancy (i.e. sensor fusion with multiple sensing technologies)

- Vision (Ambarella’s key offer) is overcoming the major historical bottlenecks:- Resolution (now 4k, 8Mpxl)

- Low light with high resolution and stereo (now working also at night)

- Power hungry (now 30 fps @ <4W)

- High resolution deep learning die size and power efficiency

- Stereo vision provides an additional sensing technique that fuses with monocular, and adds

redundancy and depth information to monocular

“Other” Revenue – Mostly “Consumer Discretionary”~20% fiscal 2019 total revenue

~150% of Ambarella’s revenue decline between F2017 and

F2019 was driven by “Other”

“Other” revenue expected to decline in dollars and as a percent of

revenue over the next 2-3 years

With some exceptions, computer vision is not critical to “Other”

markets

Some segments such as police body cameras and commercial drones are

expected to adopt CV and remain attractive but relatively small market opportunities

Sports/action cameras, consumer drones, and AR/VR markets

have not come close to achieving market growth expectations and

are relatively small opportunities

Q3 F2020 (October 2019) Review and Q4 Outlook(Q3 F2020 reported November 25, 2019)

Geopolitical factors creating uncertainty and volatility with a wide range of potential outcomes

On October 15, 2019 we provided an update on the impact to our business from the Entity List published on October 9th. This brought clarity to some trade

issues, but we continue to see a wide variety of geopolitical risks outstanding, including foreign policy, trade and IP matters

Factors potentially disruptive to our business include

potential export regulations on advanced technologies

potential for customers in China to take actions to reduce their dependence on U.S. components that could be subject to new geopolitical developments

changes to tariffs and/or the Entity List

market share shifts between our customers

supply chain issues

Our largest competitor in the security camera market, HiSilicon, a unit of Huawei, is facing headwinds

Q4 F2020 (January, 2020) Outlook

The midpoint of our Q4 revenue guidance range of $55.0 to $59.0 million was slightly above the sell-side analyst consensus expectation of $55.7 million

We anticipate normal seasonality in the seasonally slow Q4, with automotive and security expected to be down sequentially and other flat to slightly up

We estimate Q3 gross margin between 56.5% to 58.5%

Q3 F2020 (October, 2019) Results

Revenue of $67.9 million was above the high-end of the guidance range of $63.0 million to $67.0 million with all markets up sequentially, led by automotive

Non-GAAP EPS of $0.32 and positive operating cash flow of $21.9 million

No stock was repurchased under an existing authorization of $50.0 million in place through June 2020
