As Adjusted represents the Company's change in accounting principle for recognizing stock-based compensation expense from a graded vesting attribution method to a straight-line attribution method. The effects of the change have been retrospectively applied to all periods effective from January 1, 2023, as presented in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company’s 10-Q to be filed with the SEC on August 14, 2023. |

Adjusted EBITDA represents income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and amortization of debt discount and debt issue costs adjusted for stock-based compensation, loss on impairment, (income) loss from investments, net, change in fair value of derivative liabilities, other (income) expense, net, and foreign exchange adjustments. Refer to Appendix for definition and complete non-GAAP reconciliation for Adjusted EBITDA. |
Charge’s CFO Leah Schweller commented, “Although our second quarter revenues declined compared with the prior year period, this was expected due to the ongoing decrease in wholesale voice volume in our Telecommunications segment. However, we continued to benefit from growth within our Infrastructure segment, primarily driven by our BW and EV charging infrastructure businesses. We are encouraged by our robust backlog and our recent acquisition of Greenspeed, which we believe will enable us to serve our customers at an even higher level. Our priorities remain focused on growing revenues and EBITDA, maintaining strong controls over expenses, and driving profitability. In pursuit of growth, we plan to continue to make strategic investments, including proper staffing levels, technology enabled tools, and the ongoing implementation of SMS technology, while diligently seeking opportunities to reduce costs.”
As discussed last quarter, the Company changed its accounting principle for recognizing stock-based compensation expense from a graded vesting attribution method to a straight-line attribution method. Additionally, subsequent to the change in accounting principle, the Company reclassified its expense related to stock-based compensation arrangements to present in the same financial statement line item as cash compensation paid to the same employees and nonemployees. As a result, the stock-based compensation financial statement line item was eliminated, and there was a corresponding change in expense reported in cost of sales, general and administrative and salaries and related benefits financial statement line items. Further details can be found within Note 2, Summary of significant accounting policies, and in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company’s 10-Q to be filed with the SEC on August 14, 2023.
Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Revenues for the second quarter of 2023 decreased
-
Infrastructure: Revenues increased
to$4.5 million , compared with$30.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, driven by increased electrical contracting services within BW, and continued execution within EV charging infrastructure compared with the prior year. The increase was partially offset by lower revenues in the Company’s ANS business, as a result of reduced spending by the major wireless broadband companies.$25.4 million
-
Telecommunications: Revenues decreased
to$38.0 million , compared with$117.6 million in the second quarter of 2022, primarily attributable to the expected lower wholesale voice volume.$155.6 million
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2023 increased
Consolidated gross margin percentage for the second quarter of 2023 increased versus the prior year period, driven by higher gross margin in both of the Company’s business segments, as well as an increasing proportion of revenues coming from the Company’s higher margin Infrastructure segment.
Net loss for the second quarter of 2023 was
-
in general and administrative expense, which represented a decrease of$5.4 million , attributable to a decrease in stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by higher investments in marketing;$1.0 million -
in salaries and related benefits, which represented a$9.2 million increase, driven by incremental headcount to support the growth of the Company over the past year, partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation;$1.4 million -
in professional fees, which represented a$0.4 million decrease, primarily related to reduced legal fees in the current period following the insourcing of legal counsel in the fourth quarter of 2022, as well as higher fees incurred in the prior year period to support the uplist to the Nasdaq; and$0.4 million -
in other income/(expense), net, which represented an increase of$0.1 million , primarily driven by a$7.1 million decrease in relation to debt amortization costs and an increase in investment income, net, of$5.4 million .$1.7 million

Non-GAAP Measures
In this press release, the Company has supplemented the presentation of its financial results calculated in accordance with
Certain information presented in this press release reflects adjustments to GAAP measures such as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as an additional way of assessing certain aspects of the Company’s operations that, when viewed with the GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of its on-going business. EBITDA is defined as income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and amortization of debt discount and debt issue costs. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for stock-based compensation, income (loss) from investments, net, change in fair value of derivative liabilities, other (income) expense, net, and foreign exchange adjustments.
As it related to future projections for the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA described above, the Company has not provided guidance for comparable GAAP measure or a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures because it is unable to determine with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items necessary to calculate such measures without unreasonable effort. These items include, but are not limited to income or loss from investments, change in fair value of derivative liabilities and foreign exchange adjustments.
