Sonim Reports 66% Sequential Revenue Increase in Second Quarter

AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sonim Technologies, Inc. SONM, a leading U.S. provider of ultra-rugged mobility solutions designed specifically for task workers physically engaged in their work environments, reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.

Sequential Second Quarter 2020 and Recent Highlights

  • Net revenues of $21.1 million, an increase of 65.7% from the first quarter
  • Gross margin increased to 23.4%, compared with 17.0% in the first quarter
  • GAAP net loss declined to $7.1 million, from $10.0 million in the first quarter
  • Raised $27.6 million in gross proceeds from a public offering
  • Eliminated $10.2 million in debt and accrued interest through repayment and conversion
  • Ended the quarter with cash and equivalents of $38.1 million.

Year-Over-Year Second Quarter 2020 Highlights

  • Net revenues of $21.1 million, a decrease of 51.9% from the 2019 second quarter
  • Gross margin decreased to 23.4%, compared with 33.0% in the prior year second quarter
  • GAAP net loss increased to $7.1 million, from $5.6 million in the 2019 second quarter

Said Tom Wilkinson, Chief Executive Officer: "Our improved carrier relationships and increased marketing drove a 65.7% sequential increase in revenue compared to our first quarter of 2020 as we execute on our turnaround plan. We also improved gross margin sequentially to more than 23% in spite of the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our supply chain."

Wilkinson added: "We continued to expand our relationships with both carrier and enterprise customers and evaluated opportunities to deploy capital into organic and strategic opportunities. In addition to a 39% decrease in operating expense from the prior year, we have drastically improved our balance sheet, resulting in a well-capitalized company with a solid foundation for future innovation and growth."   

Second Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Net revenues for the second quarter of 2020 increased 65.7% to $21.1 million from $12.7 million in the first quarter of 2020. The increase in net revenues was primarily attributable to expanded carrier relationships and enterprise distribution capabilities. 

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2020 increased sequentially to $4.9 million (23.4% of net revenues) from $2.2 million (17.0% of net revenues) in the first quarter of 2020. The sequential increase in gross profit was primarily attributable to increased sales activity over which to spread production costs as well as the absence of the temporary shutdown that affected the Shenzhen manufacturing facility in the first quarter of 2020, an event which increased cost of goods in the preceding quarter.  

Operating expenses for the second quarter were approximately $0.3 million higher than in the first quarter, but down 39% year-over-year. Second quarter GAAP operating expenses included a one-time charge of $2 million for the proposed settlement of prior shareholder suits and associated legal expenses of approximately $0.4 million, which settlement is subject to court approval. Both Research and Development and Sales and Marketing expenses declined sequentially as Sonim seeks to maximize efficiency of its operating costs, consistent with its goal to lean out operations under its new business model. 

Net loss for the second quarter of 2020 totaled $7.1 million or $(0.22) per basic and diluted share (based on 31.6 million shares), compared to net loss of $10.0 million, or $(0.48) per basic and diluted share (based on 20.6 million shares), in the first quarter of 2020.  

Balance Sheet

Sonim ended the quarter with $38.1 million in cash and equivalents, and no long-term debt. Net cash provided by operating activities was $5.7 million through the first six months of 2020. Inventory was $15.2 million at quarter end, and accounts receivable $5.3 million. Working capital totaled $36.2 million, up from $19.7 million at December 31, 2019.
