Smith Micro Reports Third Quarter and Year-to-Date 2023 Financial Results
Company Reports Sequential Revenue Growth and $1.5 million of Cash Flow From Operations During the Quarter
PITTSBURGH, PA, November 8, 2023 – Smith Micro Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: SMSI) (“Smith Micro” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2023.
“Launching our flagship SafePath® platform at another Tier 1 carrier during the third quarter was a prerequisite to drive both marketing investment and anticipated revenue growth with this customer," said William W. Smith, Jr., president, chief executive officer, and chairman of the board of Smith Micro. “In today’s world, carriers recognize the strength and value our technology provides for protecting their family subscribers, both in the digital and physical worlds they face.”
“From a financial perspective, I am delighted that we exceeded the cost reduction targets that we outlined back in March.” Smith continued, “We created an aggressive plan that improved our gross margins and further reduced operating expenses. We have executed rigorously, and, although we have reported a GAAP net loss, we have achieved non-GAAP profitability while generating cash flow from operations during the third quarter.”
Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Smith Micro reported revenue of $11.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to $11.7 million reported in the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Sequentially, revenue grew by $0.7 million from the $10.3 million reported in the second quarter of 2023.
Gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was $8.5 million, compared to $8.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 77 percent for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to 69 percent for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.
GAAP net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was $5.1 million, or $0.08 loss per share, compared to GAAP net loss of $5.8 million, or $0.10 loss per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Total cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2023 were $8.0 million.
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) income, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of revenue and non-GAAP diluted (loss) earnings 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 has therefore excluded the following items from GAAP earnings calculations: stock compensation, intangibles amortization, depreciation, fair value adjustments, amortization of debt issuance costs and discount, and personnel severance and reorganization activities. 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 our 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.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this press release are, and certain statements on the related conference call may be, forward-looking statements regarding future events or results within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, including statements related to our financial prospects, goals and other projections of our outlook or performance and our future business plans, and statements using such words as “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “intend,” “could,” “will” and other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Among the important factors that could cause or contribute to such differences are customer concentration, given that the majority of our sales depend on a few large customer relationships and the loss of any of them could materially and negatively affect our business, delay or failure of our customers to accept and deploy our products and services or new or upgraded versions thereof, delay or failure of our customers’ end users to adopt our products and services or new or upgraded versions thereof, our reliance on third party application stores for the distribution of our software applications to users and any barriers to such distribution, including any delay or failure of such third party to approve new versions of our applications or their implementation and/or application of policies that may be harmful to our business, unanticipated delays or obstacles in our development and release cycles, the degree to which competing business needs may affect our allocation of resources to planned projects, the risk of harm to our business resulting from our recent and any future cost reduction efforts, our ability to attract and retain key technical personnel that are essential to our product development and support efforts, changes in demand for our products from our customers and their end users, changes in requirements for our products imposed by our customers or by the third party providers of software and/or platforms that we use, our ability to effectively integrate, market and sell acquired product lines, new and changing technologies and customer acceptance and timing of deployment of those technologies, our ability to compete effectively with other software and technology companies, and the existence and terms of our convertible notes and related agreements, including that they may restrict our ability to obtain additional financing, and adversely affect our business, financial condition and cash flows from operations in the future. These and other factors discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our filings on Forms 10-K and 10-Q, could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this release are made on the basis of the views and assumptions of management, and we do not undertake any obligation to update these statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this release.
