Oblong Announces Financial Results for Third Quarter 2022

November 10, 2022 -- (BUSINESS WIRE) Oblong, Inc. (Nasdaq: OBLG) (“Oblong” or the “Company”), the award-winning maker of multi-stream collaboration solutions, today reported financial results for the third quarter ending September 30, 2022.

“Our results for the third quarter came in as previously expected and, while our sales and profit results do not yet reflect the strategic and financial actions taken in recent quarters to shift our performance, we are confident in our stated objective to pursue growth both organically and through inorganic means that may include a business combination or sale of the company. Lastly, I want to thank our team for their proven dedication and resilience during this extraordinary and important time for our organization,” commented Pete Holst, President & CEO of Oblong.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $4.1 million of cash and no debt.

Total revenue was $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2022 versus $1.8 million for the third quarter of 2021.

Net loss of $7.2 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to a net loss of $0.7 million for the third quarter of 2021. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges on intangible and other assets of $5.2 million.

Adjusted EBITDA (“AEBITDA”) loss of $1.4 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to an AEBITDA loss of $1.7 million for the third quarter of 2021. AEBITDA loss is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below for additional information regarding this non-GAAP financial measure, and “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation” for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net loss.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

Adjusted EBITDA (“AEBITDA”) loss, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as net loss before depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and expense, impairment charges, casualty loss, gain on extinguishment of debt, severance, income tax expense, and interest and other (income) expense, net. AEBITDA loss is not intended to replace operating loss, net loss, cash flow or other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Rather, AEBITDA loss is an important measure used by management to assess

the operating performance of the Company and to compare such performance between periods. AEBITDA loss as defined here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in accounting policies. Therefore, AEBITDA loss should be considered in conjunction with net loss and other performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as operating loss or cash flow used in operating activities, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP measures, such as net loss, operating loss or any other GAAP measure of liquidity or financial performance. A GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation of net loss to AEBITDA loss is shown under “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation” later in this release.
