(Reuters) -Mobileye Global Inc beat estimates for revenue and earnings on Wednesday in its first quarterly report after going public in October, as the Intel Corp (NASDAQ:INTC) unit benefited from strong demand for its self-driving technology from carmakers.

Shares of the company were up about 2% at $31 in premarket trading, after it also forecast a revenue range for the current quarter that came in well above expectations.

A push to incorporate assistive-driving capabilities to bolster safety features in cars has led to greater adoption of self-driving technology, helping companies such as Mobileye.

Total revenue at Mobileye grew 38% to $450 million in the third quarter ended Oct. 1. Analysts were expecting revenue of $447 million, according to Refinitiv data.

Net loss, however, widened to $45 million from $26 million. On an adjusted basis, the company earned 15 cents per share, above analysts' estimates of 12 cents, according to Refinitiv.
