Smith Micro Reports First Quarter 2021 Financial Results

PITTSBURGH, PA, May 5, 2021 – Smith Micro Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMSI) (“Smith Micro” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

“I’m incredibly proud of what we accomplished during the first quarter,” said William W. Smith, Jr., President and CEO of Smith Micro Software. “We announced the largest acquisition in Company history and also raised additional capital in a successful follow-on public offering. Bolstered by our strengthened employee base and diversified customer portfolio, we believe we are well positioned to maximize revenues throughout the rest of the year and beyond.”

First Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Smith Micro reported revenue of $11.4 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021, compared to $13.3 million reported in the first quarter ended March 31, 2020.

First quarter 2021 gross profit was $9.8 million compared to $12.1 million reported in the first quarter of 2020.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 86 percent for the first quarter of 2021 compared to 91 percent for the first quarter of 2020.

Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) net loss for the first quarter of 2021 was $3.2 million, or $0.07 diluted loss per share, compared to GAAP net income of $2.0 million, or $0.05 diluted earnings per share, for the first quarter of 2020.

Non-GAAP net income (which excludes stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles, and acquisitions costs) for the first quarter of 2021 was $700 thousand, or $0.02 diluted earnings per share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $4.1 million, or $0.10 diluted earnings per share, for the first quarter of 2020.

Total cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2021 were $89.2 million.

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company considers, and has included in this press release, certain non-GAAP financial measures, including a non-GAAP reconciliation of gross profit, income (loss) before taxes, net income (loss), and earnings (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 our income generation and has therefore excluded the following items from GAAP earnings calculations: stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles, and acquisition costs. 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 income (loss) and net income (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-financial measures as reported by Smith Micro may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies.
