SEATTLE, Nov. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Bsquare Corporation BSQR today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2020. Revenue was $10.4 million up 17% over Q2 2020, net loss was $0.1 million, adjusted EBITDAS was $0.3 million, and cash was breakeven for the quarter.
"We had a good quarter especially given the challenges we experienced in Q2. Revenue and margins were up sequentially, EBITDAS results improved, and cash utilization was minimal, all suggesting that COVID-19 did not derail us.' said Ralph C, Derrickson, CEO and President of Bsquare.
Added Derrickson: "The investments we made in our large Edge-to-Cloud customer relationships are bearing fruit and suggest that at the intersection of our two business segments, there lies the potential to accelerate our emergence from the period of business rebuilding that has dominated our management attention for the last five quarters."
Third Quarter 2020 Financial Highlights
- Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments totaled $12.6 million on September 30, 2020, unchanged from June 30, 2020.
- Revenue for Q3 2020 was $10.4 million, up $1.5 million from Q2 2020. Revenue increases were driven by higher sales in the Partner Solutions segment and increased service revenue in the Edge-to-Cloud segment.
- Partner Solutions gross margins were 19%, up from Q2 2020. Edge-to-cloud margins also improved sequentially as investments in our large customers began to wind down.
- Net loss for the current quarter was $0.1 million, or $(0.01) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.1 million, or $(0.08) per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2020.
- Adjusted EBITDAS was approximately $0.3 million, a $1.1 million improvement over the negative $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2020.

Financial Commentary on Third Quarter 2020 Results Compared to Third Quarter 2019
- Partner Solutions revenue increased for the comparative period, driven by higher sales of Microsoft operating systems and other embedded software.
- Edge to Cloud revenue decreased when compared to the prior year third quarter, primarily from completion of software consulting projects during 2019 that did not recur in 2020.
- Total operating expenses, both including and excluding restructuring costs, decreased when compared to the third quarter of 2019 due to announced spending reduction initiatives that reduced salary, benefit, and marketing costs.
- Net loss for Q3 2020 was $0.1 million or $(0.01) per diluted share compared to a loss of $1.1 million or $(0.09) per diluted share in Q3 2019, an improvement of $1.0 million or $0.08 per diluted share.

(1) | Adjusted EBITDAS is a non-GAAP financial measure that BSQUARE defines as income (loss) from operations before depreciation expense on fixed assets and amortization expense (including impairment) on intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring costs, and goodwill impairment (when applicable). Adjusted EBITDAS should not be construed as a substitute for net income (loss) or net cash provided (used) by operating activities (all as determined in accordance with GAAP) for the purpose of analyzing our operating performance, financial position and cash flows. Adjusted EBITDAS has limitations, including that it does not reflect our entire cost structure to operate our business (such as the cost of replacing assets being depreciated or amortized, capital expenditures, and stock-based compensation expenses which we expect to continue being meaningful, and income tax expense (benefit)) and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. However, BSQUARE regards Adjusted EBITDAS as a complement to net income and other GAAP financial performance measures. BSQUARE uses Adjusted EBITDAS to evaluate BSQUARE's financial performance and the effectiveness of its business strategies on a consistent basis across reporting periods, and BSQUARE believes the measure is often used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate comparable companies. |
