Sierra Wireless Reports First Quarter 2022 Results

Revenue in Q1'22 was $173.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA was $15.8 million

Sierra Wireless, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWIR) (TSX: SW) reported results for its first quarter of 2022. All results are reported in U.S. dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), except as otherwise indicated below.1

“We delivered strong sequential and year-over-year growth in the First Quarter,” said Phil Brace, President and CEO of Sierra Wireless. "We continue to work closely with our suppliers to secure components to meet the strong demand from our customers."

First Quarter 2022 Compared to First Quarter 2021

  • Revenue was $173.0 million, an increase of 60.1%. The improved performance was primarily due to strong demand and the realization of investments in inventory. In addition, the first quarter of 2021 was negatively impacted by the ransomware incident.
  • Gross margin was 31.8% as compared to 34.9% in the first quarter of 2021. In the first quarter of 2022, gross margin was impacted by product mix, obsolete inventory from our home security business, and one time expedited shipping costs.
  • Operating expenses were $64.6 million compared to $60.8 million in the first quarter of 2021. First quarter expenses included a $10.3 million impairment charge primarily related to the intangible assets of our home security business.
  • Net loss from continuing operations was $13.9 million, compared to $28.5 million in the first quarter of 2021.
  • Adjusted earnings from continuing operations* was $8.6 million, or earnings of $0.23 per share, as compared to a loss of $9.6 million, or loss of $0.26 per share in the first quarter of 2021.
  • Adjusted EBITDA* was $15.8 million compared to a loss of $4.4 million in the first quarter of 2021.
  • Connectivity, software, and services revenue was $34.9 million, an increase of 3.7%. This increase included growth in our core connectivity area including smart connectivity which was partially offset by decreases in our legacy 2G/3G European business and our home security business. Monthly recurring revenue ("MRR")2 was $11.4 million in March 2022 compared to $11.5 million in March 2021.

Segmented Information

IoT Solutions

Revenue from IoT Solutions increased 79.3% to $133.7 million as compared to $74.6 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to increased demand for connected devices globally. IoT Solutions gross margin was 30.3%, compared to 29.6% in the first quarter of 2021.

Enterprise Solutions

Revenue from Enterprise Solutions increased 17.2% to $39.2 million as compared to $33.5 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to strong demand for routers in our key industrial and public safety verticals. Enterprise Solutions gross margin was 37.0% as compared to 46.7% in the first quarter of 2021. Enterprise Solution gross margin was negatively impacted by obsolete inventory from our home security business and one-time expedited shipping costs caused by 2021 COVID-19 related shutdowns. These one-time factors had a negative 9.0% impact on gross margin.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, including amounts held for sale, at the end of the first quarter of 2022 were $97.4 million, an increase of $20.6 million from the fourth quarter of 2021. In January 2022, we received net proceeds of $45.8 million from the full drawdown of our CAD$60 million debt facility with the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce and the Business Development Bank of Canada. The debt facility has a term of four years and a first-year interest rate of 5%. In addition, we continued to make investments in inventory in the supply constrained environment.

Disposition of Offender Monitoring Business Line

On April 15, 2022, we signed a definitive agreement and closed the sale of our Omnilink offender monitoring business to Sentinel Advantage LLC for $37.6 million in cash, subject to customary working capital adjustments. Sentinel continues to be an important customer, and we are providing them with connectivity services and embedded modules for their offender monitoring products. The divestiture allows the Company to focus on its core businesses and strengthen its balance sheet.

Financial Guidance

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our global business continues to remain uncertain. While we continue to evaluate the effects of COVID-19 on our business, the overall severity and duration of adverse impacts related to COVID-19 on our business, financial condition, cash flows and operating results for the second quarter 2022 and beyond cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Due to continued strong demand and the investment in inventory to combat the industry-wide tightness in supply, we expect our revenue in the second quarter 2022 to be in the range of $160 million to $175 million, with a midpoint of $167.5 million.

This non-GAAP guidance constitutes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable securities laws and reflects current business indicators and expectations. These statements are based on management's current beliefs and assumptions, which could prove to be significantly incorrect. Forward-looking statements, particularly those that relate to longer periods of time, are subject to substantial known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events or results to differ significantly from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements, including those described in our regulatory filings. See "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" below.

______________________________________________

1 Non-GAAP financial measures referred to in this news release are labeled as "non-GAAP measure" or designated as such with an asterisk (*). Please see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for explanations of why the Company uses these non-GAAP measures and "Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results by Quarter" for reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measures.

2 MRR is defined as the monthly recurring revenue generated from connectivity, software, and services as well as usage fees from current customers. MRR is a key performance metric to measure our performance and growth in our recurring revenue, both to help investors better understand and assess the performance of our business and also because our mix of revenue generated from recurring sources has increased in recent years. MRR does not have any standardized meaning and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. MRR should be viewed independently of revenue and deferred revenue and is not intended to be combined with or to replace either of those items. MRR is not a forecast.

3 In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the results of operations of the Automotive Business are reported as discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, assets and liabilities associated with the Omnilink business have been recorded as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheet as at March 31, 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP on a basis consistent for all periods presented. In addition to results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental indicators of our operating performance. The term “non-GAAP financial measure” is used to refer to a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that: (i) excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP in a company’s statement of earnings, balance sheet or statement of cash flows; or (ii) includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented.

Our non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are adjusted net earnings (loss) from continuing operations*, adjusted basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations*and adjusted EBITDA* (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization).

Adjusted net earnings (loss) from continuing operations* excludes the impact of stock-based compensation expense and related social taxes, phantom RSU expense which represents expenses related to compensation units settled in cash based on the stock price at vesting, restructuring costs, government grants related to COVID-19 relief, CEO retirement/search, impairment, the ransomware incident, COVID-19 factory constraint incremental costs, certain other non-recurring costs or recoveries, acquisition-related amortization, the impact of foreign exchange gains or losses on translation of certain balance sheet accounts, unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses on forward contracts, and certain tax adjustments.

Adjusted EBITDA* is defined as net earnings (loss) from continuing operations plus stock-based compensation expense and related social taxes, phantom RSU expense which represents expenses related to compensation units settled in cash based on the stock price at vesting, restructuring costs, government grants related to COVID-19 relief, CEO retirement/search, impairment, the ransomware incident, COVID-19 factory constraint incremental costs, certain other non-recurring costs or recoveries, amortization, interest and other income (expense), foreign exchange gains or losses on translation of certain balance sheet accounts, unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses on forward contracts, and income tax expense (recovery). Adjusted EBITDA* is a metric used by investors and analysts for valuation purposes and is an important indicator of our operating performance and our ability to generate liquidity through operating cash flow that will fund future working capital needs and fund future capital expenditures.

We use the above-noted non-GAAP financial measures for planning purposes and to allow us to assess the performance of our business before including the impacts of the items noted above as they affect the comparability of our financial results. These non-GAAP measures are reviewed regularly by management and the Board of Directors as part of the ongoing internal assessment of our operating performance.

We disclose these non-GAAP financial measures as we believe they provide useful information to investors and analysts to assist them in their evaluation of our operating results and to assist in comparisons from one period to another. Readers are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
