Sierra Wireless Reports Second Quarter 2022 Results
Revenue in Q2’22 was $188.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA was $22.4 million
VANCOUVER, British Columbia–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Sierra Wireless, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWIR) (TSX: SW) reported results for its second quarter of 2022. All results are reported in U.S. dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”), except as otherwise indicated below.1
Second Quarter 2022 Compared to Second Quarter 2021
- Revenue was $188.0 million, an increase of 41.5% compared to the second quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to strong demand and the realization of investments in inventory to combat the ongoing supply chain tightness.
- Gross margin was 33.6% as compared to 34.8% in the second quarter of 2021. In the second quarter of 2022, gross margin was impacted by product mix and higher component costs.
- Operating expenses were $44.6 million compared to $55.6 million in the second quarter of 2021. Second quarter expenses included a $9.2 million gain on sale of our Omnilink offender monitoring business.
- Net earnings from continuing operations was $10.9 million, compared to a net loss $10.0 million in the second quarter of 2021.
- Adjusted earnings from continuing operations* was $16.7 million, or basic adjusted earnings from continuing operations* of $0.43 per share, as compared to a loss of $1.1 million, or loss of $0.03 per share in the second quarter of 2021.
- Adjusted EBITDA* was $22.4 million compared to $4.3 million in the second quarter of 2021.
- Connectivity, software, and services revenue was $31.4 million, a decrease of 10.7% compared to the second quarter of 2021. This decrease was primarily due to the sale of the Omnilink offender monitoring business and the impact of the shutdown of 2G/3G networks in the United States on our home security business.
- Monthly recurring revenue (“MRR”)2, 3 was $9.1 million in June 2022 compared to $9.3 million in June 2021.
Segmented Information
IoT Solutions
Revenue from IoT Solutions increased 54.7% to $139.7 million as compared to $90.3 million in the second quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to strong demand for connected devices globally and the realization of investments in inventory to combat the ongoing supply chain tightness. Increase in demand includes acceleration in IoT modules deployment across our industrial customers. IoT Solutions gross margin was 30.1%, compared to 27.0% in the second quarter of 2021. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to price increases, product mix, and improved absorption of fixed costs from increased volume.
Enterprise Solutions
Revenue from Enterprise Solutions increased 13.6% to $48.3 million as compared to $42.5 million in the second quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to strong demand for routers in our key industrial and public safety verticals, partially offset by decline in connectivity, software, and services revenue resulting from the sale of the Omnilink offender monitoring business and the impact of the shutdown of 2G/3G networks in the United States on our home security business. Enterprise Solutions gross margin was 43.9% as compared to 51.3% in the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to product mix and higher component costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash at the end of the second quarter of 2022 were $127.4 million, an increase of $30.0 million from the first quarter of 2022. The increase in cash was primarily driven by proceeds received from the sale of our Omnilink offender monitoring business.
Acquisition by Semtech Corporation
On August 2, 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) with Semtech Corporation and a subsidiary of Semtech Corporation (the “Purchaser”) pursuant to which the Purchaser will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Sierra Wireless (the “Transaction”). Under the terms of the Transaction, Sierra Wireless shareholders will receive $31 in cash per share (in U.S. dollars).
The Transaction, which is not subject to any financing conditions, will be carried out by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act and will require the approval of at least (1) 66⅔% of the votes cast by Sierra Wireless shareholders, and (2) 66⅔% of the votes cast by Sierra Wireless security holders (comprised of shareholders, optionholders, restricted share unit holders and performance share unit holders), at a special meeting expected to be held to consider the Transaction. In addition to such approval by Sierra Wireless shareholders and security holders, the Transaction is also subject to court approval and regulatory approvals, including approval under the Canadian Competition Act and the United States Hard-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976. Subject to the satisfaction of such conditions, the Transaction is expected to be completed by early 2023.
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 embedded modules and connectivity services for their offender monitoring products. The divestiture allows the Company to focus on its core businesses and strengthen its balance sheet.

_____________________________ 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 Following the sale of our Omnilink offender monitoring business in the second quarter of 2022 and the decision to not develop additional products for our home security business in light of the shutdown of 2G/3G networks in the United States in the first quarter of 2022, revenues from these businesses have been excluded from MRR for the current and prior periods. |
|
4 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 and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. |
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*, basic and diluted adjusted 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, gain on sale of Omnilink, 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, recognition of cumulative translation adjustments on dissolution of subsidiaries, 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, gain on sale of Omnilink, 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, recognition of cumulative translation adjustments on dissolution of subsidiaries, 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.
