Continued ramp in enterprise FWA revenue; now represents over 13% revenue

Next generation 5G hotspot launches with Verizon and Telstra

SAN DIEGO, November 02, 2022--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Inseego Corp. (Nasdaq: INSG) (the "Company"), a leader in 5G edge cloud solutions, today reported its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022. The Company reported third quarter net revenue of $69.2 million, GAAP operating loss of $11.9 million, GAAP net loss of $15.7 million, GAAP net loss of $0.15 per share, adjusted EBITDA of negative $2.5 million, and non-GAAP net loss of $0.11 per share. Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents at quarter end was $18.1 million.

"We're pleased to report strong revenue results for the third quarter," said Ashish Sharma, CEO of Inseego. "The driver for Inseego's future growth is the enterprise FWA business, which now represents 13% of our revenue. This year, we signed up hundreds of new customers for our 5G FWA solutions, and we’ve added a lot of new enterprise customers to the list of ongoing pilots of both 5G FWA and our new enterprise networking solution, 5G SD EDGE, which was released earlier in the quarter. Thanks to the breadth of our 5G portfolio, we are seeing a trend of more and more customers choosing Inseego over the competition."

Business Highlights

– 5G revenue up 22% year-over-year on a quarterly basis

– Software solutions represented 21% of total revenue in the quarter

– Sold 5G products to over 600 enterprises by quarter-end

– Enterprise base now exceeds 1,000 customers

– Introduced Inseego 5G SD EDGE™ cloud enterprise WAN networking solution with zero trust networking access (ZTNA)

– Provides corporate IT teams the ability to extend IT policies to the edge

– Pilots with Fortune 500 companies underway

– Launch of Inseego Wavemaker™ 5G indoor CPE FG2000 with Drei Austria in September, the second member of the 3 Group to launch Inseego 5G fixed wireless access products

– Next generation 5G mobile hotspot launches with Verizon and Telstra

"We exceeded our sales expectations for the quarter due in large part to the successful launch of our next-generation 5G mobile hotspot and continued ramp in 5G FWA enterprise deployments," said Bob Barbieri, CFO of Inseego. "This quarter’s gross margin was impacted by the higher volume of carrier hotspot sales as well as elevated supply chain costs. We expect gross margin to improve in Q4 and with it our quarterly cash usage will trend lower. This will allow us to achieve our goal of cash flow breakeven during Q1 2023."

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Some of the information presented in this news release may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and often contain words such as "may," "estimate," "anticipate," "believe," "expect," "intend," "plan," "project," "will" and similar words and phrases indicating future results. The information presented in this news release related to our future business outlook, the future demand for our products, as well as other statements that are not purely statements of historical fact, are forward-looking in nature. These forward-looking statements are made on the basis of management’s current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. We therefore cannot guarantee future results, performance or achievements. Actual results could differ materially from our expectations.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s expectations include: (1) the future demand for wireless broadband access to data and asset management software and services; (2) the growth of wireless wide-area networking and asset management software and services; (3) customer and end-user acceptance of the Company’s current product and service offerings and market demand for the Company’s anticipated new product and service offerings; (4) increased competition and pricing pressure from participants in the markets in which the Company is engaged; (5) dependence on third-party manufacturers and key component suppliers worldwide; (6) the impact that new or adjusted tariffs may have on the cost of components or our products, and our ability to sell products internationally; (7) the impact of fluctuations of foreign currency exchange rates; (8) the impact of geopolitical instability and supply chain challenges on our ability to source components and manufacture our products; (9) unexpected liabilities or expenses; (10) the Company’s ability to introduce new products and services in a timely manner, including the ability to develop and launch 5G products at the speed and functionality required by our customers; (11) litigation, regulatory and IP developments related to our products or components of our products; (12) dependence on a small number of customers for a significant portion of the Company’s revenues and accounts receivable; (13) the Company’s ability to raise additional financing when the Company requires capital for operations or to satisfy corporate obligations; (14) the Company’s plans and expectations relating to acquisitions, divestitures, strategic relationships, international expansion, software and hardware developments, personnel matters, and cost containment initiatives, including restructuring activities and the timing of their implementations; (15) the global semiconductor shortage and any related price increases or supply chain disruptions, and (16) the potential impact of COVID-19 on the business.

These factors, as well as other factors set forth as risk factors or otherwise described in the reports filed by the Company with the SEC (available at www.sec.gov), could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the Company’s forward-looking statements. The Company assumes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future, except as otherwise required pursuant to applicable law and our on-going reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Inseego Corp. has provided financial information in this news release that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share and non-GAAP operating costs and expenses exclude preferred stock dividends, share-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets purchased through acquisitions, amortization of discount and issuance costs related to the Company’s 2025 Notes and the revolving credit facility, fair value adjustments on derivative instruments, a one-time prior period adjustment related to unamortized debt discount and loss on debt extinguishment relating to the Company’s 2022 Notes, and other non-recurring legal expenses. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, foreign exchange gains and losses, and other.

Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share and non-GAAP operating costs and expenses are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and are not intended to be used in isolation or as a substitute for operating expenses, net loss, net loss per share or any other performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because we consider each to be an important supplemental measure of our performance.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to make operational decisions, evaluate the Company’s performance, prepare forecasts and determine compensation. Further, management believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company’s performance when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. Share-based compensation expenses are expected to vary depending on the number of new incentive award grants issued to both current and new employees, the number of such grants forfeited by former employees, and changes in the Company’s stock price, stock market volatility, expected option term and risk-free interest rates, all of which are difficult to estimate. In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, management excludes certain non-cash and one-time items in order to facilitate comparability of the Company’s operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such expenses are not, in management’s view, related to the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Management uses this view of the Company’s operating performance for purposes of comparison with its business plan and individual operating budgets and in the allocation of resources.

The Company further believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in providing greater transparency to the information used by management in its operational decision-making. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures also facilitates a comparison of our underlying operating performance with that of other companies in our industry, which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results.

In the future, the Company expects to continue to incur expenses similar to the non-GAAP adjustments described above, and exclusion of these items in the presentation of our non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. Investors and potential investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool. The limitations of relying on non-GAAP financial measures include, but are not limited to, the fact that other companies, including other companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative tool.

Investors and potential investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures contained within this news release with our GAAP financial results.
