“We had a strong third quarter at Owlet, with our highest-ever revenues and continued international expansion, including launching into Switzerland and France,” said Kurt Workman, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer at Owlet. “In the first three quarters of the year, we accomplished everything we set out to achieve at the beginning of 2021. Our domestic penetration and awareness continue to grow organically and have in fact accelerated with increased investment. I’m also pleased to report that adoption and growth rates internationally have outpaced our expectations and our progress toward key platform expansion opportunities are advancing in line with our expectations.”

Workman continued, “Since receiving the FDA Warning Letter and taking prompt action to address its concerns, we have been in ongoing, collaborative discussions with the FDA on a path forward for our medical device application for the Smart Sock. We are also in communication with our ecosystem of partners about what this means. Additionally, our team is working in parallel with our partners to announce a new consumer baby sleep monitor in the fourth quarter of this year. We look forward to sharing more on that soon.”

Operating expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 were $28.6 million compared to $10.9 million for the same period in 2020, representing an increase of $17.7 million in costs associated with the scaling of the company to support growth.

Forward-Looking Statement Disclaimer

Certain statements, estimates, targets and projections in this press release may be considered forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or Owlet’s future financial or operating performance. For example, statements relating to the regulatory status of Owlet’s products and its plans for the launch of a wellness product and timing thereof are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “should”, “expect”, “intend”, “will”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “predict”, “potential” or “continue”, or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Owlet and its management, are inherently uncertain. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: Owlet’s competition; the regulatory pathway for Owlet products and responses from regulators, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and similar regulators outside of the United States; the ability of Owlet to maintain relationships with customers, manufacturers and suppliers and retain Owlet’s management and key employees; changes in applicable laws or regulations; the possibility that Owlet may be adversely affected by other economic, business, regulatory and/or competitive factors; the ability of Owlet to implement its strategic initiatives and continue to innovate its existing products; the ability of Owlet to defend its intellectual property and satisfy regulatory requirements; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Owlet’s business; Owlet’s limited operating history and history of losses; and other risks and uncertainties set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and in other reports the Company files with or furnishes to the SEC. Any such forward-looking statements represent management’s estimates and beliefs as of the date of this press release. While Owlet may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, other than as required by law, it disclaims any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause its views to change.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes references to financial measures that are not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted net loss and Adjusted net loss per share. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. The reconciliations of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures should be carefully evaluated.

The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to net loss or net loss per share as a measure of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. EBITDA is defined as net loss adjusted for income tax provision, interest expense, interest income, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss adjusted for income tax provision, interest expense, interest income, depreciation and amortization, preferred stock mark-to-market adjustments, stock-based compensation, transaction costs, loss on extinguishment of debt, and gain on loan forgiveness. EBITDA margin is defined as EBITDA divided by revenues. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenues. Adjusted net loss is defined as net loss adjusted for non-recurring interest expense, stock-based compensation, transaction costs, preferred stock and common stock warrant liability adjustments, loss on extinguishment of debt, and gain on loan forgiveness. Adjusted loss per share is defined as Adjusted net loss divided by weighted-average shares of common stock.

The Company presents these non-GAAP financial measures because management believes that these measures assist investors and analysts in comparing the Company’s operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that management does not believe are indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Investors are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons the Company considers them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures, investors should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in the Company’s presentation of Company’s non-GAAP financial measures. The Company’s presentation of Company’s non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. There can be no assurance that the Company will not modify the presentation of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures in future periods, and any such modification may be material. In addition, the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in the Company’s industry or across different industries.
