INDIE SEMICONDUCTOR, INC.

Primary Offering of

27,400,000 shares of Class A Common Stock

Issuable Upon Exercise of Warrants

Secondary Offering of

70,846,446 shares of Class A Common Stock and

10,150,000 Warrants to Purchase Class A Common Stock

This prospectus supplement no. 7 amends and supplements the prospectus dated July 13, 2021 (as supplemented or amended from time to time, the “Prospectus”), which forms a part of our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-257629). This prospectus supplement is being filed to update and supplement the information in the Prospectus with the information contained in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 22, 2022 (the “Current Report”). Accordingly, we have attached the Current Report to this prospectus supplement.

The Prospectus relates to the issuance by us of up to 27,400,000 shares of our Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”). Of these shares:

● 17,250,000 shares are issuable upon the exercise of warrants (the “public warrants”) initially issued as part of the units issued in the initial public offering of Thunder Bridge Acquisition II, Ltd. (“Thunder Bridge II”);

● 8,650,000 shares are issuable upon the exercise of warrants (the “private placement warrants”) initially issued to Thunder Bridge Acquisition II LLC (the “Sponsor”) in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the initial public offering of Thunder Bridge II; and

● 1,500,000 shares are issuable upon the exercise of warrants issued to an affiliate of the Sponsor in connection with loans it made to Thunder Bridge II prior to the closing of the Business Combination (as defined below) (the “sponsor warrants” and collectively with the public warrants and the private placement warrants, the “warrants”).

Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of our Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share. We will receive the proceeds from the exercise of the warrants, but not from the sale of the underlying shares of Class A common stock.

In addition, the Selling Securityholders identified in the Prospectus may, from time to time in one or more offerings, offer and sell up to 70,846,446 shares of our Class A common stock, of which:

● 8,625,000 shares were exchanged in our Business Combination for shares of Class A common stock issued to the Sponsor in a private placement prior to Thunder Bridge II’s initial public offering (the “sponsor shares”);

● 37,071,446 shares are issuable upon the exchange of an equal number of units (the “LLC Units”) representing limited liability company interests in Ay Dee Kay LLC, d/b/a indie Semiconductor (“ADK LLC”), our direct subsidiary;

● 15,000,000 shares were issued in private placements in connection with our business combination with ADK LLC, which we completed on June 10, 2021 (the “Business Combination”);

● 8,650,000 shares are issuable upon the exercise of private placement warrants; and

● 1,500,000 shares are issuable upon the exercise of sponsor warrants.

The Selling Securityholders may also, from time to time in one or more offerings, offer and sell up to 8,650,000 private placement warrants and 1,500,000 sponsor warrants.

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of our Class A common stock or the sale of the private placement warrants or sponsor warrants by Selling Securityholders, but we are required to pay certain offering fees and expenses in connection with the registration of the Selling Securityholders’ securities and to indemnify certain Selling Securityholders against certain liabilities.

The Selling Securityholders may offer and sell our Class A common stock, private placement warrants and sponsor warrants to or through one or more underwriters, dealers and agents, or directly to purchasers, on a continuous or delayed basis. In addition, certain Selling Securityholders may offer and sell these securities from time to time, together or separately. If the Selling Securityholders use underwriters, dealers or agents to sell such securities, we will name them and describe their compensation in a prospectus supplement. The price to the public of those securities and the net proceeds any Selling Securityholders expect to receive from that sale will also be set forth in a prospectus supplement.

Our Class A common stock and our public warrants are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “INDI” and “INDIW,” respectively. On February 22, 2022, the closing price of our Class A common stock was $7.66 and the closing price for our public warrants was $1.92.

This prospectus supplement updates and supplements the information in the Prospectus and is not complete without, and may not be delivered or utilized except in combination with, the Prospectus, including any amendments or supplements thereto. This prospectus supplement should be read in conjunction with the Prospectus and if there is any inconsistency between the information in the Prospectus and this prospectus supplement, you should rely on the information in this prospectus supplement.

Investing in our securities involves risks that are described in the “Risk Factors” section beginning on page 8 of the Prospectus.

Neither the SEC nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the securities to be issued under the Prospectus or determined if the Prospectus or this prospectus supplement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The date of this prospectus supplement is February 24, 2022.

Q4 2021

● Delivered 56% Sequential and 185% Year-over-Year Revenue Growth to a Record $19M

● Posted Non-GAAP Gross Margin of 46.3%, Up 330 Basis Points Sequentially and 1,090 Basis Points Year-over-Year

● Guides Q1 2022 Revenue to be Up 160 to 170% Year-over-Year with Further Non-GAAP Gross Margin Expansion

Full Year 2021

● More than Doubled Revenue to $48M and Expanded Non-GAAP Gross Margin Despite Challenging Global Supply Chain Dynamics

● Increased R&D Investments and Implemented Public Company Infrastructure

● Augmented Radar, LiDAR and Vision IP via Acquisition and Organic Development while Broadening Design Win Pipeline

ALISO VIEJO, Calif. – Feb. 22, 2022 – indie Semiconductor, Inc. (Nasdaq: INDI), an Autotech solutions innovator, today announced fourth quarter and year end 2021 results for the period ended December 31, 2021. Fourth quarter revenue was up 56 percent sequentially and 185 percent from the year ago period to a record $19.0 million, exceeding guidance and analyst expectations. Non-GAAP gross margin expanded 330 basis points sequentially and 1,090 basis points year-over-year to 46.3 percent, better than indie’s 45.0 percent guidance. On a GAAP basis, fourth quarter 2021 operating loss was $26.2 million compared to $6.9 million in the year ago period. Non-GAAP operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $12.7 million versus $5.5 million during the same quarter last year, reflecting increasing customer-driven R&D investments as well as public company infrastructure costs.

Full year 2021 revenue was up 114 percent year-over-year to $48.4 million with 2021 non-GAAP gross margin expanding to 43.7 percent, a 140 basis point improvement over the prior year.

“indie delivered record fourth quarter and year end results fueled by growing demand for our highly innovative Autotech solutions,” said Donald McClymont, indie’s co-founder and chief executive officer. “Our outperformance reflects the strength of indie’s differentiated product portfolio coupled with crisp operational execution. At a higher level, indie is at the epicenter of several powerful automotive megatrends, including ADAS, connected car, user experience and electrification. Looking ahead, we believe our deeper investments and targeted acquisitions are setting the stage for accelerating growth in 2022 and positioning indie to become the leading provider of edge sensors spanning LiDAR, radar, ultrasound and vision applications.”

Q4 Business Highlights

● Unveiled Surya™, a highly integrated LiDAR SoC augmented by TeraXion’s world class laser and sensing solutions

● Expanded production of advanced lighting controllers to support multiple new automotive customers

● Captured OnBrD™ telematics design wins at IOSix, a fleet information services provider

● Commenced shipments of exterior lighting platforms with a leading German OEM

● Awarded a vehicle security system program at a European Tier 1 supplier

First Quarter 2022 Outlook

We provide earnings guidance on a non-GAAP basis because certain information necessary to reconcile such guidance to GAAP is difficult to estimate and dependent on future events outside of our control. Please refer to the attached Discussion Regarding the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in this press release for a further discussion of our use of non-GAAP measures, including quantification of known expected adjustment items.

“Given new program ramps this quarter and throughout the year, we plan to substantially outpace our addressable markets and drive further gross margin expansion,” said Thomas Schiller, indie’s chief financial officer and executive vice president of strategy. “Specifically, for the first quarter, we anticipate revenue to be up 160 to 170 percent year-over-year and in the range of $21 to $22 million with non-GAAP gross margin of approximately 47 percent, putting indie on pace for another record quarter and a strong start to 2022. Further, with strengthening order visibility, demonstrated scalability and planned operating leverage, indie is increasingly well positioned to capitalize on the strategic Autotech market and translate our design win momentum into long-term shareholder value.”

The preliminary unaudited financial results for our fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2021 included in this press release represent the most current information available to management. Our actual results when disclosed in the Form 10-K may differ from these preliminary results as a result of the completion of our financial closing procedures; final adjustments; completion of the audit by our independent registered accounting firm; and other developments that may arise between now and the disclosure of the final results. In addition to the factors previously disclosed in our registration statement on Form S-1 (SEC File No. 333-261269) and in our other public reports filed with the SEC (including those identified under “Risk Factors” therein), the following factors, among others, could cause actual results and the timing of events to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements: the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; our reliance on contract manufacturing and outsourced supply chain and the availability of semiconductors and manufacturing capacity; competitive products and pricing pressures; our ability to win competitive bid selection processes and achieve additional design wins; the impact of any acquisitions we may make; our ability to develop, market and gain acceptance for new and enhanced products and expand into new technologies and markets; trade restrictions and trade tensions; and political and economic instability in our target markets. All forward-looking statements in this press release are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements.

Our earnings release contains some or all of the following financial measures that have not been calculated in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”): (i) non-GAAP gross profit and gross margin, (ii) non-GAAP operating loss, (iii) non-GAAP net income (loss), (iv) non-GAAP share count and (v) non-GAAP net loss per share. As set forth in the “Unaudited Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” table, we derive such non-GAAP financial measures by excluding certain expenses and other items from the respective GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to each non-GAAP financial measure. Management may use these non-GAAP financial measures to, amongst other things, evaluate operating performance and compare it against past periods or against peer companies, make operating decisions, forecast for future periods and to determine payments under compensation programs. These non-GAAP financial measures provide management with additional means to understand and evaluate the operating results and trends in our ongoing business by eliminating certain expenses and other items that management believes might otherwise make comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods and competitors more difficult, obscure trends in ongoing operations or improve management’s ability to forecast future periods.

We provide investors with non-GAAP gross profit and gross margin, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share because we believe it is important for investors to be able to closely monitor and understand changes in our ability to generate income from ongoing business operations. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures give investors an additional method to evaluate historical operating performance and identify trends, an additional means of evaluating period-over-period operating performance and a method to facilitate certain comparisons of our operating results to those of our peer companies. We further believe these non-GAAP financial measures allow investors to assess the overall financial performance of our ongoing operations by eliminating the impact of (i) acquisition-related expenses (including acquisition-related professional fees and legal expenses, deemed compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and expenses recognized in relation to changes in contingent consideration obligations), (ii) gains or losses recognized in relation to changes in the fair value of the simple agreements for future equity (“SAFEs”), warrants and contingent considerations issued by indie, and unrealized gains or losses from currency hedging contracts (iii) non-cash interest expenses related to the amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs, (iv) share-based compensation, (v) gains and losses from extinguishment of debt and (vi) non-cash tax expenses. We believe that disclosing these non-GAAP financial measures contributes to enhanced financial reporting transparency and provides investors with added clarity about complex financial performance measures.

We do not report a GAAP measure of gross profit or gross margin because certain costs related to contract revenues are expensed as incurred and included in research and development expenses, and not in cost of sales, as it is not practicable for us to bifurcate these expenses. We derive and reconcile non-GAAP gross profit from the most relevant GAAP financial measures by subtracting cost of sales, adjusted for acquisition-related expenses, from revenue. We calculate non-GAAP operating loss by excluding from GAAP operating loss, any (i) acquisition-related expenses (including acquisition-related professional fees and legal expenses, deemed compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and expenses recognized in relation to changes in contingent consideration obligations) and share-based compensation. We calculate non-GAAP net income (loss) by excluding from GAAP net income (loss), any (i) acquisition-related expenses (including acquisition-related professional fees and legal expenses, deemed compensation expense, and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and expenses recognized in relation to changes in contingent consideration obligations), (ii) gains or losses recognized in relation to change in the fair value of the simple agreements for future equity (“SAFEs”), warrants and contingent considerations issued by indie, (iii) non-cash interest expenses related to the amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs, (iv) share-based compensation, (v) gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt, and (vi) non-cash tax expenses. We calculate non-GAAP share count by adding to GAAP weighted average common shares outstanding: (i) Escrow Shares and (ii) ADK Minority Holders interest, which represents all shares issuable to vested minority equity interests held in Ay Dee Kay LLC upon exchange for indie Class A shares as described in the Form 10-Q. Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share is calculated by non-GAAP income (loss) divided by non-GAAP share count.

We exclude the items identified above from the respective non-GAAP financial measure referenced above for the reasons set forth with respect to each such excluded item below:

Acquisition-related expenses - including such items as, when applicable, amortization of acquired intangible assets, fair value adjustments to contingent consideration, fair value charges incurred upon the sale of acquired inventory, and acquisition-related professional fees and legal expenses because they are not considered by management in making operating decisions and we believe that such expenses do not have a direct correlation to our future business operations and thereby including such charges do not necessarily reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such charges or reversals are incurred.

Share-based compensation - related to the non-cash compensation expense associated with equity awards granted to our employees. These expenses are not considered by management in making operating decisions and such expenses do not have a direct correlation to our future business operations.

Gain (loss) from change in fair values - because these adjustments (1) are not considered by management in making operating decisions, (2) are not directly controlled by management, (3) do not necessarily reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such charges are recognized and (4) can make comparisons between peer company performance less reliable.

Non-cash interest expense - related to the amortization of debt discounts, warrants, and issuance costs because (1) these expenses are not considered by management in making decision with respect to financing decisions, and (2) these generally reflect non-cash costs.

Gain from extinguishment of debt - related to the gain from the PPP loan forgiveness and partially offset by the one-time debt termination fees and the acceleration of unamortized debt discounts and issuance costs as a result of the payoff of debt obligations. This net gain is not reflective of management’s operation decisions and are not expected to recur.

Other income (expense) - primarily related to an unrealized gain (loss) that represented the change in exchange rate between contract issuance date and period-end for a currency forward contract.

Deferred tax charges - because such charges do not result in a current period tax payment.

The non-GAAP financial measures presented should not be considered in isolation and are not an alternative for the respective GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to each such non-GAAP financial measure. Investors are cautioned against placing undue reliance on these non-GAAP financial measures and are urged to review and consider carefully the adjustments made by management to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to arrive at these non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures may have limited value as analytical tools because they may exclude certain expenses that some investors consider important in evaluating our operating performance or ongoing business performance. Further, non-GAAP financial measures are likely to have limited value for purposes of drawing comparisons between companies as a result of different companies potentially calculating similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures in different ways because non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles.

To the extent our disclosures contain forward-looking estimates of non-GAAP financial measures, these measures are provided to investors on a prospective basis for the same reasons (set forth above) we provide them to investors on a historical basis. We are generally unable to provide a reconciliation of our forward-looking non-GAAP measures because certain information needed to make a reasonable forward-looking estimate of such non-GAAP measures are difficult to predict and estimate and is often dependent on future events that may be uncertain or outside of our control. Such events may include unanticipated changes in our GAAP effective tax rate, unanticipated one-time charges related to asset impairments (fixed assets, inventory, intangibles, or goodwill), unanticipated acquisition-related expenses, unanticipated settlements, gains, losses and impairments and other unanticipated items not reflective of ongoing operations. Our forward-looking estimates of both GAAP and non-GAAP measures of our financial performance may differ materially from our actual results and should not be relied upon as statements of fact.
