                    (1)Refer to Supplemental Financial Information accompanying this press release for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP numbers and
    for reconciliation of free cash flow and adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter 2024 ended September 30, 2024.

"We are pleased that, despite the market challenges, revenue and margins were within our guidance range for the third quarter. Most importantly, we generated continuing growth in the Enterprise portfolio of products. Margins improved and we delivered increased positive cash from operations compared to the second quarter 2024, and $5.2 million in free cash flow. Cambium's product sales out of the distribution channel remain higher than reported revenues, and channel inventories declined, as reported by our distributors," said Morgan Kurk, president and CEO.

Revenues of $43.7 million for the third quarter 2024 decreased by $2.2 million, or 5%, compared to $45.9 million in the second quarter 2024, primarily due to lower Point-to-Point revenues to defense customers, offset partially by higher Enterprise revenues.

GAAP gross margin for the third quarter 2024 was 39.9%, 850 basis points higher than 31.4% for the second quarter 2024. GAAP operating loss for the third quarter 2024 was $8.1 million, a $4.0 million improvement from the operating loss of $12.1 million for the second quarter 2024. GAAP net loss for the third quarter 2024 was $9.7 million, or a net loss of $0.34 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $9.1 million, or net loss of $0.33 per diluted share for the second quarter 2024.

Non-GAAP gross margin for the third quarter 2024 was 42.3%, a 880 basis point improvement from 33.5% for the second quarter 2024, primarily due to a decline in inventory reserve charges and losses on supplier commitments. Non-GAAP operating loss for the third quarter 2024 was $3.6 million, an improvement from a non-GAAP operating loss of $7.9 million for the second quarter 2024. Non-GAAP net loss for the third quarter 2024 was also improved, at $3.8 million, or a net loss of $0.14 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net loss of $7.1 million, or net loss of $0.25 per diluted share, for the second quarter 2024. For the third quarter 2024, adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $2.3 million or (5.3)% of revenues, a 65% improvement from an adjusted EBITDA loss of $6.7 million or (14.5)% of revenues for the second quarter 2024.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $8.9 million for the third quarter 2024, significantly higher compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $2.4 million for the second quarter 2024. Non-GAAP free cash flow totaled $5.2 million for the third quarter of 2024, an improvement compared to negative $1.8 million for the second quarter 2024. Cash totaled $46.5 million as of September 30, 2024.

As of September 30, 2024, the company remained in compliance with its monthly liquidity covenant for its outstanding bank debt at each measurement period during the quarter, but was not in compliance with its quarterly consolidated EBITDA covenant. The company was also not in compliance with its liquidity covenant as of October 31, 2024. The covenant violations affords the lenders the right to declare the amounts outstanding immediately due and payable, and as such, the term loan facility and the associated debt issuance costs and the revolving loan facility have all been classified as a current liability and the deferred debt issuance costs associated with the revolving loan facility have been classified as a current asset in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2024. The company is seeking a forbearance from the bank and is working with them to address its noncompliance with the covenants.

Use of non-GAAP (Adjusted) Financial Measures

In addition to providing financial measurements based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), we provide additional financial metrics that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP (non-GAAP), including Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP pre-tax income, non-GAAP provision for income taxes, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP fully weighted basic and diluted shares. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for financial and operational decision making, for planning and forecasting purposes, to measure executive compensation and to evaluate our financial performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures help us to identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses that we exclude in the calculations of the non-GAAP financial measures.

We believe that these financial measures reflect our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in the business and provides information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects. Although the calculation of non-GAAP financial measures may vary from company to company, our detailed presentation may facilitate analysis and comparison of our operating results by management and investors with other peer companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results in their public disclosures. These non-GAAP financial measures are discussed below.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net (loss) income as reported in our consolidated statements of operations excluding the impact of (i) interest expense (income), net; (ii) income tax provision (benefit); (iii) depreciation and amortization expense; (iv) nonrecurring expenses, (v) share-based compensation expense, and (vi) restructuring expenses. EBITDA is widely used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate the profitability of companies. EBITDA eliminates potential differences in performance caused by variations in capital structures (affecting net finance costs), tax positions (such as the availability of net operating losses against which to relieve taxable profits), the cost and age of tangible assets (affecting relative depreciation expense) and the extent to which intangible assets are identifiable (affecting relative amortization expense). We adjust EBITDA to also exclude nonrecurring expenses since this is one-time in nature and does not reflect our ongoing operations. We adjust EBITDA for share-based compensation expense which is a non-cash expense that varies in amount from period to period and is dependent on market forces that are often beyond Cambium Networks' control. As a result, management excludes this item from Cambium Networks' internal operating forecasts and models. We also adjust EBITDA to exclude nonrecurring expenses and restructuring expenses as these relate to events outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations and to provide a more accurate comparison of our ongoing business results.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure defined as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures, which is disclosed as purchases of property and equipment and purchases of software in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. We believe this non-GAAP financial measure is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors, even if negative, about the amount of cash used in our operations other than that used for investments in property and equipment. Since free cash flow is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for cash from operating activities and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. Free cash flow is not necessarily a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs.

Non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP net income are used as a supplement to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe these non-GAAP measures are the most meaningful for period-to-period comparisons because they exclude the impact of share-based compensation expense, restructuring expenses, nonrecurring legal expenses, amortization of acquired intangibles, and amortization of capitalized software costs as we do not consider these costs and expenses to be indicative of our ongoing operations.

Share-based compensation expenses are excluded. Management may issue different types of awards, including share options, and restricted share units, and excludes the associated expense in this non-GAAP measure. Share-based compensation expense is a non-cash expense that varies in amount from period to period and is dependent on market forces that are often beyond Cambium Networks control.

Amortization of acquired intangibles includes customer relationships and is excluded since these are not indicative of continuing operations.

Amortization of capitalized software costs include capitalized research and development activities amortized over their useful life and included in cost of revenues and are excluded since these are not indicative of continuing operations.

Restructuring expenses consist primarily of severance costs for employees which are not related to future operating expenses. Cambium Networks excludes these expenses since they result from an event that is outside the ordinary course of continuing operations. Excluding these charges permits more accurate comparisons of Cambium Networks' ongoing business results.

Our non-GAAP tax adjustments include the tax impacts from share-based compensation expense including excess or decremental tax benefits available to the company that are recorded when incurred. Non-GAAP results exclude the effect of a valuation allowance recorded against tax assets for the cumulative loss related to our UK and U.S. operations. Cambium Networks excludes these amounts to more closely approximate the company's ongoing effective tax rate after adjusting for one-time or unique non-recurring items. The associated non-GAAP effective tax rate is also applied to the gross amount of non-GAAP adjustments for the purpose of calculating non-GAAP net income in total and on a per-share basis. This approach is designed to enhance the ability of investors to understand the company's tax expense on its current operations, provide improved modeling accuracy, and substantially reduce fluctuations caused by GAAP adjustments which may not reflect actual cash tax expense.

Non-GAAP fully weighted basic and diluted shares are shown as outstanding during the entire period presented and include dilutive shares if their effect on earnings per share is dilutive. We also use non-GAAP fully weighted basic and diluted shares to provide more comparable per-share results across periods.

These non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of our GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations in the use of non-GAAP measures because they do not include all the expenses that must be included under GAAP and because they involve the exercise of judgment concerning exclusions of items from the comparable non-GAAP financial measure. In addition, other companies may use other measures to evaluate their performance, or may calculate non-GAAP measures differently, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison.
