The Company continues growth into 2022 with profitable first quarter results

Everspin Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRAM), the market leader in MRAM, today announced preliminary unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022.

First Quarter 2022 Highlights

Q1'22 revenue increased $4.0 million, or 39%, to $14.3 million from $10.3 million for Q1'21.
The Company reported net income of $1.9 million for Q1'22, compared to a net loss of $0.5 million for Q1'21.
Adjusted EBITDA for Q1'22 improved to $3.1 million, compared to $0.8 million for Q1'21.
Basic EPS for Q1'22 was $0.10 compared to a net loss per share of $0.02 for Q1'21.

"The Everspin team delivered an excellent quarter focusing on sales, yield improvement, and operational discipline in this tough supply chain environment," said Sanjeev Aggarwal, President & CEO. "We are optimistic about our business outlook and expect our new xSPI family of Low Density STT-MRAM products to drive growth across industrial and IoT markets."

First Quarter 2022 Results

Total revenue for the first quarter of 2022 was $14.3 million, a decrease of 21% from the $18.2 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2021, which primarily reflects $3.9M in revenue recognized in the fourth quarter of 2021 from a one-time intellectual property ("IP") monetization deal. This is an increase of 39% compared to $10.3 million of revenue in the first quarter of 2021.

MRAM product sales in the first quarter of 2022, which includes both Toggle and STT-MRAM revenue, was $12.7 million compared to $12.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 and $9.1 million in the first quarter of 2021.

Licensing, Royalties, Patents and Other revenue in the first quarter of 2022 was $1.7 million compared to $5.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 and $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2021.

The increase in total revenue for the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021 was due to strong Toggle sales and an increase in revenue recognized from a U.S. Government RAD-Hard program entered into during the second quarter of 2021.

Gross margin for the first quarter of 2022 was 58.0%, compared to 62.8% in the fourth quarter of 2021, and 58.2% in the first quarter of 2021. The decrease in gross margin in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the fourth quarter of 2021 was attributable to higher margin related to the IP monetization deal in the fourth quarter of 2021 as noted above.

GAAP operating expenses was $6.3 million in the first quarter of 2022, compared to $7.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 and $6.3 million in the first quarter of 2021. GAAP operating expenses decreased in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the fourth quarter of 2021 as a result of decreased research and development spend related to the new 28nm product sampling this quarter.

GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2022 was $1.9 million, or $0.10 per basic share, based on 19.9 million weighted-average basic common shares outstanding. This compares to a net income of $3.7 million, or $0.19 per basic share, in the fourth quarter of 2021 and a net loss of $0.5 million, or ($0.02) per basic share, in the first quarter of 2021.

Business Outlook

For the second quarter 2022, Everspin expects total revenue in a range of $13.6 million to $14.6 million. Everspin expects industry supply constraints to limit supply and push some unfulfilled customer demand to the second half of the year. Everspin expects GAAP net income (loss) per basic share to be between ($0.06) and breakeven, primarily driven by expenses related to next generation 28nm STT MRAM product development and price increases from our suppliers.

This outlook is dependent on Everspin's current expectations, which may be impacted by, among other things, evolving external conditions, such as the resurgence of COVID-19 and its variants, local safety guidelines, worsening impacts due to supply chain constraints or interruptions, including due to the recent military conflict in Ukraine, and the other risk factors described in Everspin's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC during 2022, as well as in its subsequent filings with the SEC.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) with Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock- based compensation expense, and restructuring costs if any.

Our management and board of directors use Adjusted EBITDA to understand and evaluate our operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short-term and long-term operating and financing plans. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information for investors in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and our board of directors. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should be considered in addition to, not as superior to, or as a substitute for, net income (loss) reported in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, other companies may define non-GAAP measures differently, which limits the usefulness of these measures for comparisons with such other companies. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly- filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
