PRESS RELEASE — Arbe Robotics Ltd. (Nasdaq: ARBE) (TASE: ARBE), a global leader in perception radar solutions, announced the successful completion of a $15.7 million private placement, through a follow-on offering as an expansion of its existing outstanding Series A Convertible Bonds.

As previously reported, in June 2024 Arbe announced the issuance of approximately $30 million in Series A Convertible Bonds. In January 2025, $21.5 million of this amount was released from escrow following the conversion of convertible bonds to ordinary shares of the Company, at the request of bondholders. The remaining balance of $8.6 million continues to be held in escrow. Following the completion of the follow-on offering announced today, the amount held in escrow under this series increased to $24.3 million.

The Company issued a 6-K on December 22, 2025 reporting that its bondholders approved an extension to the Series A Convertible Bonds’ maturity date to December 31, 2026, a reduction of the annual interest rate from 6.5% to 4.35% commencing January 1, 2026, as well as other amendments. The additional bonds issued as part of this follow-on offering have the same terms as all of Arbe’s existing outstanding Series A Convertible Bonds, including the lower interest rate. Following their registration for trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange on December 29, 2025, all Series A Convertible Bonds will trade as a single series.

“We are very pleased with the successful expansion of our Series A Convertible Bonds, which reflects the strong support we continue to see from our investors,” said Kobi Marenko, Chief Executive Officer of Arbe. “The successful conclusion of the expansion process, which we launched following requests from our bondholders, enhances our financial flexibility and provides additional resources to support the execution of our long-term growth strategy. We believe this positive outcome underscores investor confidence in Arbe’s technology and long-term vision.”
