Revenue Exceeds 70M, EPS at 0.06, Adjusted EPS grows 44% to 0.23

All values are in US Dollars.

(Minneapolis, MN, August 6, 2020) - Digi International^®^ Inc. (Nasdaq: DGII), a leading global provider of business and mission critical Internet of Things ("IoT") products, services and solutions, today announced its financial results for its third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2020.

"We are pleased with our fiscal third quarter record performance," said Ron Konezny, President and Chief Executive Officer. "In a period in which the global economy contracted at unprecedented levels, Digi’s business model demonstrated its resiliency. Digi’s core value proposition enabling secure, automated, remote work has never been more relevant as our customers adapt during this pandemic era."

Third Fiscal Quarter 2020 Results Compared to Third Fiscal Quarter 2019 Results

•Revenue increased to $70.3 million compared to $61.2 million, an increase of $9.1 million, or 15.0%.

•Net income increased to $1.8 million compared to $1.6 million, an increase of $0.2 million, or 7.2%.

•Net income per diluted share remained flat at $0.06.

•Adjusted EPS increased to $0.23 per diluted share compared to $0.16 per diluted share, or 43.8%.

•Adjusted EBITDA increased to $10.5 million compared to $6.1 million, an increase of $4.4 million, or 71.5%.

Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures appear at the end of this release.

Segment Results

IoT Product & Services

The segment's third fiscal quarter 2020 revenues of $63.5 million increased 25.7% from the same period in the prior fiscal year. This increase is attributed primarily to the incremental revenue associated with our acquisition of Opengear, Inc. ("Opengear'") on December 13, 2019. Gross profit margin increased 770 basis points to 53.4% of revenues for the third fiscal quarter of 2020. Product mix across the portfolio, including the products acquired through the acquisition of Opengear drove the margin rate increase.

IoT Solutions

The segment's third fiscal quarter 2020 revenues of $6.9 million decreased 35.6% from the same period in the prior fiscal year. This was due primarily to delays in customer rollouts, expansions and equipment upgrades as a result of COVID-19. In addition, we had large enterprise deals in the prior fiscal year that did not reoccur in fiscal 2020. We served approximately 69,300 sites as of June 30, 2020, compared to just over 61,000 sites as of June 30, 2019. Gross profit margin increased 70 basis points to 50.2% demonstrating the value of our high margin recurring revenue business model.

Fiscal 2020 Guidance

We previously withdrew the provision of financial guidance for fiscal year 2020 due to the global impact of COVID-19 on business activities.

Although our third fiscal quarter 2020 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA performance grew year over year, we noted disruptions in normal business activities beginning in the second fiscal quarter, especially for customers whose businesses are located in restricted geographic areas or whose facilities have been closed or otherwise restricted in their operations.

We have implemented measures to reduce expenses while maintaining company performance. We are unable to reasonably estimate when markets will recover, the duration of such a recovery and the related financial impact on our business at this time.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements that are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions. These statements often can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "assume," "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "target," "may," "will," "expect," "plan," "potential," "project," "should," or "continue," or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or similar terminology. Among other items, these statements relate to expectations of the business environment in which the Company operates, projections of future performance, perceived marketplace opportunities and statements regarding our mission and vision. Such statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Among others, these include risks related to the present outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to mitigate the same, risks related to the economic downturn that commenced during the COVID-19 pandemic and the ability of companies like us to operate a global business, the highly competitive market in which our company operates, rapid changes in technologies that may displace products sold by us, declining prices of networking products, our reliance on distributors and other third parties to sell our products, the potential for significant purchase orders to be canceled or changed, delays in product development efforts, uncertainty in user acceptance of our products, the ability to integrate our products and services with those of other parties in a commercially accepted manner, potential liabilities that can arise if any of our products have design or manufacturing defects, our ability to defend or settle satisfactorily any litigation, uncertainty in global economic conditions and economic conditions within particular regions of the world which could negatively affect product demand and the financial solvency of customers and suppliers, the impact of natural disasters and other events beyond our control that could negatively impact our supply chain and customers, potential unintended consequences associated with restructuring or other similar business initiatives that may impact our ability to retain important employees, the ability to achieve the anticipated benefits and synergies associated with acquisitions or divestitures (including, but not limited to, our recently announced acquisition of Opengear), and changes in our level of revenue or profitability which can fluctuate for many reasons beyond our control. These and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions identified from time to time in our filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, including without limitation, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019 and other filings, could cause the Company's future results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. Many of such factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date for which they are

made. We disclaim any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share and Adjusted EBITDA, each of which is a non-GAAP measure.

We understand that there are material limitations on the use of non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP measures are not substitutes for GAAP measures, such as net income, for the purpose of analyzing financial performance. The disclosure of these measures does not reflect all charges and gains that were actually recognized by the company. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for measures prepared in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies or presented by us in prior reports. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. We believe that non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, the cash requirements for the replacement of depreciated and amortized assets, or changes in or cash requirements for our working capital needs.

We believe that providing historical and adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share, respectively, exclusive of such items as reversals of tax reserves, discrete tax benefits, restructuring charges and reversals, intangible amortization, stock-based compensation, other non-operating income/expense, adjustments to estimates of contingent consideration, acquisition-related expenses, and interest expense from acquisitions permits investors to compare results with prior periods that did not include these items. Management uses the aforementioned non-GAAP measures to monitor and evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and to gain an understanding of our comparative operating performance. In addition, certain of our stockholders have expressed an interest in seeing financial performance measures exclusive of the impact of these matters, which while important, are not central to the core operations of our business. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, defined as EBITDA adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring charges and reversals, and gains from the disposition of our former corporate headquarters is useful to investors to evaluate the Company’s core operating results and financial performance because it excludes items that are significant non-cash or non-recurring items reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue is useful because it provides a reliable and consistent approach to measuring our performance from year to year and in assessing our performance against that of other companies. We believe this information helps compare operating results and corporate performance exclusive of the impact of our capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired.

(2)For the three months ended June 30, 2020, discrete tax benefits primarily are a result of expiring statute of limitations. For the nine months ended June 30, 2020, discrete tax benefits include excess tax benefits recognized on stock compensation, an adjustment of our state deferred tax rate due to the Opengear acquisition and expiring statute of limitations. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2019, discrete tax benefits are a result of expiring statute of limitations of uncertain tax benefits as well as excess tax benefits recognized on stock compensation.

(3)Adjusted net income per diluted share may not add due to the use of rounded numbers.
