Smith Micro Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2024 Financial Results

PITTSBURGH, PA, March 11, 2025 – Smith Micro Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: SMSI) (“Smith Micro” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

“Looking back on 2024, it was a transformative year for Smith Micro as we addressed challenges head-on and developed new innovations that have ignited a renewed focus for the Company. We are seeing excitement – both within the company and among our customers and prospects – for the opportunities that we are creating with the latest expansion of our SafePath® platform,” said William W. Smith, Jr., president, chief executive officer, and chairman of the board of Smith Micro.

“We have distinguished ourselves as a trusted partner to mobile operators through our delivery of value-added-services, and now, with our latest innovations in SafePath OS™ and SafePath Kids™, carriers can leverage the strength of our SafePath solutions to offer devices and rate plans aimed at creating a safer mobile experience, not as valued-added-services, but as an integral component of the carrier's core offerings. Our successful launch of SafePath Kids with Orange Spain's TúYo solution during the fourth quarter was our first deployment under this renewed focus, and the product is generating tremendous interest,” Smith added, “Our path forward is clear. We are bringing an enhanced and powerful new portfolio of our family safety solutions to market, which we believe align to mobile operators' core strengths and principal business objectives. I believe the pivot we have made positions us to capture a significant market opportunity and a return to profitability.”

Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Smith Micro reported revenue of $5.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, compared to $8.6 million reported in the quarter ended December 31, 2023.

Gross profit for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 was $3.8 million, compared to $6.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 75.6 percent for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, compared to 74.9 percent for the quarter ended December 31, 2023.

GAAP net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 was $4.4 million, or $0.25 loss per share, compared to GAAP net loss of $6.7 million, or $0.74 loss per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2023.

Non-GAAP net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 was $1.9 million, or $0.11 loss per share, compared to non-GAAP net loss of $1.7 million, or $0.18 loss per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. 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.

Fourth Quarter Year-to-Date 2024 Financial Results

Smith Micro reported revenue of $20.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $40.9 million reported in the twelve months ended December 31, 2023.

Gross profit for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 was $14.4 million compared to $30.3 million reported for the same period in 2023.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 70.2 percent for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 compared to 74.2 percent for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023.

GAAP net loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 was $48.7 million, or $3.94 loss per share, compared to GAAP net loss of $24.4 million, or $3.01 loss per share, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023.

Non-GAAP net loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 was $13.7 million, or $1.11 loss per share, compared to non-GAAP net loss of $5.3 million, or $0.65 loss per share, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023. Non-GAAP net loss excludes the items noted below under "Non-GAAP Measures."

Total cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2024 were $2.8 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, 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, amortization of debt issuance costs and discount, goodwill impairment, personnel severance and reorganization activities, 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.
