MIDDLETOWN, R.I., Aug. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KVH Industries, Inc., (Nasdaq: KVHI), reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 today. The company will hold a conference call to discuss these results at 9:00 a.m. ET today, which can be accessed at investors.kvh.com. Following the call, a replay of the webcast will be available through the company’s website.

Second Quarter 2023 Highlights

  • Total revenues from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2023 were $34.2 million, down 1% from $34.6 million in the second quarter of 2022.
  • Our VSAT airtime revenue increased $1.1 million, to $26.9 million, or 4%, in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022.
  • Net income from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2023 was $0.9 million, or $0.05 per share, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $0.2 million, or $0.01 per share, in the second quarter of 2022.
  • Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was $4.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $3.2 million in the second quarter of 2022.

Commenting on the company’s second quarter results, Brent C. Bruun, KVH Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our increased strategic focus on service revenue opportunities continued to generate growth in the second quarter as our airtime service revenue was up in comparison to the same period last year, while our subscriber base increased to more than 7,140. We also established a robust pipeline for our new OpenNet program, which brings non-KVH antennas onto our global VSAT network and opens a new service revenue stream that is not reliant on hardware sales or shipments. Our new contract extension with Intelsat solidifies the backbone of our KVH ONE hybrid network for the next three years, enabling us to integrate enterprise-grade VSAT along with LEO, 5G, and Wi-Fi services as part of our multi-orbit, multi-channel connectivity solution.

“However, we continue to experience competitive headwinds driven by new LEO services, a transition to streaming content rather than satellite TV in the leisure market, and a corresponding reduction in satellite TV and leisure VSAT terminal sales. As a result, our quarterly revenue declined 1% versus the second quarter last year. In light of the changing market and competitive environments, we are tempering our guidance for the full year. We now anticipate revenue of $133 million to $139 million, with continued growth in both service revenues and subscribers and adjusted EBITDA from $12 million to $15 million.”

Second Quarter Financial Summary

Revenue was $34.2 million for the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of 1% compared to $34.6 million in the second quarter of 2022.

Product revenues for the second quarter of 2023 were $5.4 million, a decrease of 18%. The decrease in product sales was primarily due to a $1.8 million decrease in TracVision product sales partially offset by increases in VSAT antenna and other product sales.

Service revenues for the second quarter of 2023 were $28.7 million, an increase of $0.8 million. The increase in service sales was primarily due to a $1.1 million increase in our VSAT service sales. This was partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in our content service sales, which was primarily driven by the sale of a subsidiary in April 2022.

Our operating expenses decreased $3.5 million to $11.7 million for the second quarter of 2023 compared to $15.2 million for the second quarter of 2022. This decrease was due to a $2.8 million decrease in general and administrative costs, a $0.5 million reduction in sales, marketing and support costs, and a $0.2 million decrease in research and development costs. These reductions were primarily due to the restructuring actions taken in March 2022 and reserve adjustments in the second quarter of 2023.

Six Months Ended June 30 Financial Summary

Revenue was $67.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of less than 1% compared to $67.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Product revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $10.4 million, a decrease of 21% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in product sales was primarily driven by a $2.0 million decrease in TracVision product sales and a $1.3 million decrease in VSAT product sales.

Service revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $57.5 million, an increase of 5% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in service sales was primarily due to a $4.1 million increase in our VSAT Broadband service sales, partially offset by a $1.0 million decrease in content service sales primarily driven by the sale of a subsidiary in April 2022.

Our operating expenses decreased $7.6 million to $24.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $32.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease resulted primarily from a $5.4 million decrease in salaries, benefits and taxes (which includes consideration of prior period costs associated with the March 2022 reduction in workforce and expenses related to the separation and retirement of the former Chief Executive Officer), a $0.6 million decrease in recruiting and relocation expense, a $0.5 million decrease in expensed materials, and a $0.3 million decrease in bad debt expense, as well as a $0.7 million reimbursement by EMCORE for expenses incurred under the Transition Service Agreement relating to the sale of the Inertial Navigation business in 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release provides non-GAAP financial information as a supplement to our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing financial results to assess operational performance. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release adjust for specified items that can be highly variable or difficult to predict. Management generally uses these non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate financial and operational decision-making, including evaluation of our historical operating results and comparison to competitors’ operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business.

Some limitations of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, include the following: non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before, as applicable, interest income, net, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense, goodwill impairment charges, intangible asset impairment charge, CEO separation costs, transaction-related and other variable legal and advisory fees, obsolete inventory recovery, gains and losses on sale of subsidiaries, foreign exchange transaction gains and losses, and income from loan forgiveness.

Other companies, including companies in KVH’s industry, may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently or not at all, which will reduce their usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that increase or decrease our reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review our consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this release.
