Smith Micro Reports Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results

Company Achieves Non-GAAP Profitability During the Quarter

ALISO VIEJO, Calif.--()--Smith Micro Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMSI), today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2018.

I am encouraged by our second quarter results as we look to build upon our positive momentum in the second half of fiscal 2018,” said William W. Smith, Jr., President and CEO of Smith Micro Software. “We achieved operating profitability and saw continued revenue growth from our wireless business unit, driven by our two core products, SafePath® and CommSuite®.”

While there is still plenty of hard work ahead, I am proud of what we have achieved with the turnaround journey that we began 18 months ago. The company is well capitalized and positioned to build upon the momentum achieved in the first half of the year. We will remain diligent and focused on our strategic initiatives, expanding our revenues and continuing our march to consistent profitability in the coming quarters.”

Fiscal Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results:

Smith Micro Software reported revenue of $6.9 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018, compared to $5.9 million reported in the second quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Second quarter 2018 gross profit was $5.8 million, compared to $4.6 million reported in the second quarter of 2017.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 84 percent for the second quarter of 2018, compared to 78 percent for the second quarter of 2017.

Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) net loss available to common stockholders for the second quarter of 2018 was $2.4 million, or $0.11 loss per share, compared to a GAAP net loss available to common stockholders of $2.0 million, or $0.15 loss per share, for the second quarter of 2017.

Non-GAAP net income (which excludes non-cash stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles, debt issuance and discount costs, fair value adjustments, preferred stock dividends, and a normalized tax expense) for the second quarter of 2018 was $0.2 million, or $0.01 per share, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $0.8 million, or $0.06 loss per share, for the second quarter of 2017.

Fiscal June Year-to-Date 2018 Financial Results:

Smith Micro Software reported revenue of $12.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $11.4 million reported for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $10.0 million, compared to $8.9 million reported for the same period in 2017.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 81 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to 78 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

GAAP net loss available to common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $4.9 million, or $0.26 loss per share, compared to a GAAP net loss available to common stockholders of $4.8 million, or $0.38 loss per share, for the same period in 2017.

Non-GAAP net loss (which excludes non-cash stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles, debt issuance and discount costs, fair value adjustments, preferred stock dividends, and a normalized tax benefit) for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $1.2 million, or $0.07 loss per share, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $2.2 million, or $0.18 loss per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Total cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2018 were $8.7 million.

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company considers and has included in this press release certain non-GAAP financial measures, including a non-GAAP reconciliation of gross profit, income (loss) before taxes, net income (loss) available to common stockholders, and earnings (loss) per share in the presentation of financial results in this press release. Management believes this non-GAAP presentation may be more meaningful in analyzing our income generation and therefore has excluded the following non-cash items from GAAP earnings calculations: stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, debt issuance and discount costs, fair value adjustments, and preferred stock dividends. Additionally, since we are in a cumulative loss position, a non-GAAP income tax expense (benefit) was computed using a 24 percent and 38 percent tax rate for 2018 and 2017, respectively, using the Company’s normalized combined U.S. federal, state, and foreign statutory tax rates less various tax adjustments. This presentation may be considered more indicative of our ongoing operational performance. The table below presents the differences between non-GAAP net income (loss) and net loss on an absolute and per-share basis. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and the non-financial measures as reported by Smith Micro Software may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies.
