Insights
Quantum's Q1 FY2025 results paint a challenging picture. Revenue declined
The company's gross margin compression, from
Quantum's pivot towards AI and unstructured data solutions is timely, but execution remains a concern. The company's legacy businesses, particularly in hyperscale customers and tape media, are dragging down overall performance. While management highlights "improving traction" for Myriad and ActiveScale products, concrete growth figures for these new initiatives are notably absent.
The supply chain issues preventing shipment of higher-margin products are particularly worrisome in the current competitive tech landscape. Quantum's ability to navigate these challenges and accelerate the growth of its new products will be crucial. The planned divestment of non-core assets could provide much-needed focus, but the company must ensure it doesn't lose valuable revenue streams in the process.
Quantum's stock is likely to face pressure following these results. The company's guidance for Q2 FY2025, projecting continued losses and only a slight revenue increase, doesn't inspire confidence in a rapid turnaround. The restructured financing buys time, but also raises questions about the company's long-term capital structure.
Investors should closely monitor Quantum's progress in growing its new product lines and improving operational efficiency. The

“Results for the quarter were largely in-line with our expectations, reflecting further rotation of our business toward our long-term initiatives,” stated Jamie Lerner, Chairman and CEO of Quantum. “We are also seeing improving traction for Myriad and ActiveScale products. However, during the quarter we experienced a temporary headwind to gross margin caused by product mix and supply constraints of certain hardware that prevented us from shipping a portion of our higher margin deals. This also resulted in an increase to our current order backlog to above normal levels.”
“As part of our ongoing strategic and financial initiatives, we have reached an agreement with our current lenders that significantly improves our liquidity, allows us to take action on improving our operational initiatives and focus on driving Myriad, ActiveScale and the rest of our businesses to the next level. With this newly restructured financing in place, we have improved our overall capital structure and balance sheet. Additionally, we continue to maintain strong cost and discretionary spending controls as we execute toward profitable growth.”
“We are fully dedicated to executing on our business initiatives toward achieving sustainable operating performance that is driven by tangible proof points, including accelerated growth of new products, divestment of non-core products and assets, and restructuring our organization to become a more focused and operationally efficient business.”

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, we have presented certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release, including non-GAAP adjusted net loss, adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP operational expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure defined by us as net loss before interest expense, net, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring charges, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, loss on debt extinguishment, non-recurring project costs, including restatement and debt-related matters and fair value of warrants adjustments.
“GAAP net loss” as referred to in this press release represents “Net loss attributable to common stockholders”. Non-GAAP adjusted net income (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure defined by us as net loss before restructuring charges, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, loss on debt extinguishment, non-recurring project costs, including restatement and debt-related matters and fair value of warrants adjustments. We calculate adjusted net income (loss) per basic and diluted share using the above-referenced definition of adjusted net income (loss).
We have provided below reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA to adjusted net income (loss), non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP operational expenses, to the most directly comparable
Our use of non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under
- Although depreciation and amortization expense are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (1) interest and tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us; (2) capital expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (3) changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; (4) the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation expense; (5) potential future costs related to our long-term debt; (6) potential future restructuring expenses; (7) potential future costs related to business acquisitions; (8) gain (loss) on debt extinguishment, (9) and acquisition-related amortization of intangibles assets from business combinations, or (10) fair market adjustments related to the Company’s warrants.
- Adjusted net income (loss) does not reflect: (1) potential future restructuring activities; (2) the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation expense; (3) potential future costs related to our long-term debt; (4) potential future costs related to business acquisitions; (5) gain (loss) on debt extinguishment; (6) acquisition-related amortization of intangibles assets from business combinations; or (7) fair market adjustments related to the Company’s warrants.
Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these and other limitations, you should consider adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) along with other
In addition, this press release includes forward-looking non-GAAP adjusted earnings or net loss per share and adjusted EBITDA, each a non-GAAP measure used to describe our expected performance. We have not presented a reconciliation of these anticipated non-GAAP measures to our most comparable GAAP financial measures, because the reconciliation could not be prepared without unreasonable effort. The information necessary to prepare the reconciliations is not available on a forward-looking basis and cannot be accurately predicted. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the calculation of the comparable GAAP financial measure.
The tables below reconcile the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted EBITDA, net income, diluted EPS, operating expenses and gross margin with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures (in thousands, unaudited).
