1Refer to Supplemental Financial Information accompanying this press release for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP numbers and for reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA for the for the first quarter 2024 ended March 31, 2024.
“I’m pleased we delivered sequential growth during the first quarter as the Enterprise business has started to recover and we reduced channel inventories. We are at the start of a new product cycle for our Point-to-Multi-Point business with the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC’s) approval of 6 GHz spectrum,” said Morgan Kurk, president and CEO.
Kurk continued, “While we have a lot of hard work ahead of us, Cambium is well positioned to deliver sequential growth for the remainder of calendar 2024, and we continue to work to improve our operating efficiency to drive increased cash generation.”
Revenues of $42.3 million for the first quarter 2024 decreased $35.1 million year-over-year primarily as a result of lower revenues across all product families. Revenues for the first quarter 2024 increased by $2.1 million compared to $40.2 million for the fourth quarter 2023, primarily due to higher Enterprise revenues in North America and Europe, Middle-East, and Africa as channel inventories begin to improve, partially offset by lower Point-to-Point revenues due to delays in government funding for defense orders in North America and Europe, and lower Point-to-Multi-Point revenues due to delays in the timing of approval for 6 GHz products in the United States and its territories.
GAAP gross margin for the first quarter 2024 was 20.5%, compared to 51.2% for the first quarter 2023, and (27.4%) for the fourth quarter 2023. GAAP operating loss for the first quarter 2024 was $21.0 million, compared to operating income of $5.6 million for the first quarter 2023, and operating loss of $41.6 million for the fourth quarter 2023. GAAP net loss for the first quarter 2024 was $26.4 million, or net loss of $0.95 per diluted share, compared to net income of $4.3 million, or net
earnings of $0.15 per diluted share for the first quarter 2023, and a net loss of $52.9 million, or net loss of $1.91 per diluted share for the fourth quarter 2023.
Non-GAAP gross margin for the first quarter 2024 was 22.7%, which included $7.0 million in inventory reserves and additional supplier commitments, and compared to 52.1% for the first quarter 2023, and (25.1)% for the fourth quarter 2023 which included an $11 million reduction in revenues as the result of price incentives provided to distributors, and inventory reserves of approximately $21.2 million mostly for Enterprise products. Non-GAAP operating loss for the first quarter 2024 was $16.7 million, compared to non-GAAP operating income of $9.4 million for the first quarter 2023, and a non-GAAP operating loss of $36.4 million for the fourth quarter 2023. Non-GAAP net loss for the first quarter 2024 was $12.7 million, or a net loss of $0.46 per diluted share, compared to net income of $6.8 million, or net earnings of $0.24 per diluted share for the first quarter 2024, and net loss of $28.2 million, or a net loss of $1.01 per diluted share for the fourth quarter 2023. For the first quarter 2024, adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $15.5 million or (36.7)% of revenues, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $10.4 million or 13.4% of revenues for the first quarter 2023, and an adjusted EBITDA loss of $35.2 million or (87.5)% of revenues for the fourth quarter 2023.
Net cash used in operating activities was $15.6 million for the first quarter 2024, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $6.0 million for the first quarter 2023, and net cash used in operating activities of $6.2 million for the fourth quarter 2023. Cash totaled $38.7 million as of March 31, 2024, $20.0 million higher than December 31, 2023.

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, 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.
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. We present a “Reconciliation of GAAP Financial Measures to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” in the tables below.
