First Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Smith Micro reported revenue of $4.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to $5.8 million reported in the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

Gross profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was $3.4 million, compared to $3.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 72.8 percent for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to 65.7 percent for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

GAAP net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was $5.2 million, or $0.28 loss per share, compared to GAAP net loss of $31.0 million, or $3.28 loss per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

Non-GAAP net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was $2.9 million, or $0.16 loss per share, compared to non-GAAP net loss of $4.2 million, or $0.45 loss per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. Non-GAAP net loss excludes the items noted below under "Non-GAAP Measures."

All share and per share amounts for common stock herein have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to the one-for-eight reverse stock split of our common stock, which became effective April 10, 2024 at 11:59 pm Eastern time.

Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company considers, and has included in this press release, the following non-GAAP financial measures and a non-GAAP reconciliation from the equivalent GAAP metric: non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP gross profit, and non-GAAP basic and diluted 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 the Company's income generation and has therefore excluded the following items from GAAP earnings calculations: stock compensation, intangibles amortization, depreciation, fair value adjustments, goodwill impairment,and adjustment for non-recurring items.Additionally, since the Company currently has federal and state net operating loss carryforwards that can be utilized to reduce future cash payments for income taxes, these non-GAAP adjustments have not been tax effected, and the resulting income tax expense reflects actual taxes paid or accrued during each period. This presentation may be considered more indicative of the Company's ongoing operational performance. The table below presents the differences between non-GAAP net 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-GAAP financial measures as reported by Smith Micro may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies.
