Smith Micro Reports Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results
PLEASE NOTE: On November 9, 2022 we issued our earnings release for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Subsequent to the release, and upon further review of the applicable accounting treatment of certain redemption features of our Convertible Notes and Warrants Offering, it was determined that certain balances required adjustment from those set forth in the earnings release. The balances that were adjusted are Convertible notes payable, net (current and long term), Warrant and derivative liabilities, General and administrative expense, Interest expense, and Change in fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities. The net impact of these adjustments is a decrease in the reported net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 by $1.5 million, which represented a decrease in the net loss per share (basic and diluted) previously presented in our earnings release of $0.03 per share. We have not amended, and do not intend to amend this earnings release, and all required adjustments are included in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.
PITTSBURGH, PA, November 9, 2022 – Smith Micro Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMSI) (“Smith Micro” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2022.
“We have been making significant progress on many fronts, not only with our customers, but also with strategic changes that capitalize on synergies from the Avast acquisition, which drove a meaningful sequential reduction in operating costs,” said William W. Smith, Jr, President, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Smith Micro. “After a long development process to migrate our Tier One carrier customers to the SafePath platform, we are finally nearing completion. Once the migration is complete, having all carriers on a feature-enhanced ‘best of both’ platform will ensure a best-in-class Digital Family Lifestyle experience for our carrier partners’ subscribers.
“We remain extremely focused on the very critical task at hand to bring the migrations to a close and turn our focus on building for the future. The next phase of the Company is more exciting and larger than any opportunity I have seen at Smith Micro in our 40-year history,” concluded Mr. Smith.

Non-GAAP Measures
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 and a non-GAAP reconciliation from GAAP gross profit, net (loss) income before taxes, and net (loss) income to the following non-GAAP metrics: non-GAAP net (loss) income, and non-GAAP diluted (loss) earnings 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 intangible assets, fair value adjustments, note and stock offering fees, personnel severance and reorganization activities, CFO transition costs, acquisition costs, and non-development intellectual property 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 (loss) income and net (loss) income 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-GAAP financial measures as reported by Smith Micro may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies.
