Insights

Lantronix's Q1 FY2025 results present a mixed picture with concerning trends. While revenue grew 4% year-over-year to $34.4 million, the sequential decline and deteriorating profitability metrics raise red flags. The GAAP loss per share widened to ($0.07) from ($0.05) last year, while non-GAAP EPS declined to $0.06 from $0.07.

The Q2 guidance suggests further challenges ahead, with projected revenue of $29-33 million and non-GAAP EPS of $0.01-0.05, representing significant sequential declines. This conservative outlook, coupled with the pending NetComm IoT acquisition's uncertain timing, indicates near-term headwinds in their core business. The widening gap between GAAP and non-GAAP results also warrants attention as it may suggest underlying operational inefficiencies.

  • First Quarter Net Revenue of $34.4 Million, up 4 Percent Year-Over-Year
  • First Quarter GAAP EPS of ($0.07) vs. ($0.05) in the Prior Year
  • First Quarter Non-GAAP EPS of $0.06 vs. $0.07 in the Prior Year

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Lantronix believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial information, when presented in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the company’s financial condition and results of operations. Management uses the aforementioned non-GAAP measures to monitor and evaluate ongoing operating results and trends to gain an understanding of our comparative operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. The company has provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP net income consists of net loss excluding (i) share-based compensation and the employer portion of withholding taxes on stock grants, (ii) depreciation and amortization, (iii) interest income (expense), (iv) other income (expense), (v) income tax provision (benefit), (vi) restructuring, severance and related charges, (vii) acquisition related costs, (viii) impairment of long-lived assets, (ix) amortization of purchased intangibles, (x) amortization of manufacturing profit in acquired inventory, (xi) fair value remeasurement of earnout consideration, and (xii) loss on extinguishment of debt.

Non-GAAP EPS is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net loss by non-GAAP weighted-average shares outstanding (diluted). For purposes of calculating non-GAAP EPS, the calculation of GAAP weighted-average shares outstanding (diluted) is adjusted to exclude share-based compensation, which for GAAP purposes is treated as proceeds assumed to be used to repurchase shares under the GAAP treasury stock method.

Guidance on earnings per share growth is provided only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of certain items that have been excluded from the forward-looking non-GAAP measures, and a reconciliation to the comparable GAAP guidance has not been provided because certain factors that are materially significant to Lantronix’s ability to estimate the excluded items are not accessible or estimable on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort.
