Insights

The financial results of SmartRent, Inc. highlight a significant year-over-year revenue growth, with total revenue and SaaS revenue increasing by 41% and 48% respectively. This performance indicates a robust demand for SmartRent's smart home solutions in the rental housing market. Furthermore, the transition to positive Adjusted EBITDA from a loss in the previous year demonstrates operational efficiency gains and cost management. The announcement of a $50 million share repurchase program suggests confidence from the management in the company's valuation and future prospects. However, the decrease in new units deployed might be a concern, signaling potential market saturation or competitive pressures.

Investors should be aware of the implications of the share repurchase program on earnings per share (EPS) and the company's capital allocation strategy. The focus on Community WiFi investment indicates a strategic pivot to capture emerging market opportunities, but it also poses risks associated with entering a new market segment. The guidance for the upcoming quarters reflects cautious optimism, with anticipated growth in the second half of the year potentially offset by short-term investments and longer sales cycles for new offerings.

SmartRent's performance in the smart home industry is notable, especially with the substantial increase in Hardware ARPU by 101% and SaaS ARPU by 7%. These metrics indicate a higher value per unit and service, which may point to successful upselling strategies or a shift towards more premium products. The 105% Net Revenue Retention rate is a positive sign of customer satisfaction and the stickiness of SmartRent's offerings. However, the decline in bookings and units booked year-over-year raises questions about market demand and customer acquisition strategies moving forward.

While the company's investment in Community WiFi is aimed at leveraging a multi-billion dollar market opportunity, investors should consider the potential impact on the company's core IoT offerings and how this strategic move aligns with SmartRent's long-term vision. The industry is evolving rapidly and SmartRent's ability to innovate while maintaining profitability will be crucial for sustaining its market-leading position.

SmartRent's financials are reflective of broader economic trends within the technology sector, where companies are increasingly seeking to balance growth with profitability. The shift to positive Adjusted EBITDA indicates a maturing business model that is moving towards sustainable growth. The decision to initiate a stock repurchase program can be interpreted as a signal to the market of undervaluation, potentially designed to boost shareholder value in the short term. However, it is also indicative of a strategic choice to utilize excess capital for internal investment rather than external growth opportunities or dividend payouts.

Given the current economic climate, with potential headwinds from supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures, SmartRent's prudent cash management and lack of debt provide it with financial stability. The company's forward-looking statements suggest careful navigation of market uncertainties, which is essential for maintaining investor confidence. The emphasis on Community WiFi investment also suggests a strategic foresight to diversify revenue streams and capitalize on new technology trends.

Management Commentary

“In the fourth quarter we achieved our two-year goal to become Adjusted EBITDA profitable, marking a new inflection point in our company's history," said SmartRent CEO Lucas Haldeman. "We accomplished this goal by executing deliberate, strategic actions in our operations and by focusing on the three tenets of our business that create our sustainable competitive advantage: purpose-built hardware, open software and robust end-to-end implementation and support. We are proud to mark this milestone and look forward to continuing to develop innovative solutions to strengthen our market-leading position as the smart communities and operations provider to the rental housing industry. In 2024, this includes investing in scaling our Community WiFi capabilities to take advantage of the early-stage multi-billion dollar market opportunity and complement our existing product offerings."

Today the Company also announced a $50 million stock repurchase program. SmartRent’s Board and management team are constantly evaluating how to generate enhanced returns for its cash and believe there is no better investment than in the Company.

Total revenue for the year was $236.8 million, up 41% from $167.8 million in 2022, as strong top-line growth continued. Q4 total revenue was $60.3 million, an increase of 49% from Q4 2022.

Hardware gross margin increased from 23% to 27%, professional services gross margin improved from (87%) to (63%), and hosted services gross margin increased from 64% to 67%. The combination of the three revenue streams resulted in a total gross margin of 28% and a gross profit of $17.0 million, the seventh consecutive quarter of improvement.

Research and development expense, sales and marketing expense, and general and administrative expense, decreased individually and in aggregate for the quarter. Total operating expenses for the year were $92.7 million versus $105.6 million in 2022. In Q4 operating expenses were $22.8 million, down $3.4 million from Q4 2022.

Net loss was $(3.3) million for Q4 2023, a $4.4 million improvement from Q3, and $(21.4) million in Q4 2022. In 2023 net loss was $(34.6) million, a $61.7 million improvement from $(96.3) million in 2022. Adjusted EBITDA was $0.7 million for Q4 2023, a $5.8 million improvement from Q3, and $(14.1) million in Q4 2022.

Our Net Revenue Retention for 2023 was 105%.

The Company ended 2023 with a cash balance of $215.7 million. The increase in cash was due primarily to improved inventory management and demand forecasting to reduce inventory levels. On August 8, 2023, the Company announced the selection of ADI Global Distribution as its preferred distribution partner. The increase in cash is not a result of the ADI arrangement, but is a part of the Company’s plan to improve internal processes as it gradually transitions to ADI over the next year.

Share Repurchase Program

The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $50 million of SmartRent’s outstanding common stock. Repurchases may be affected from time to time, either on the open market (including pre-set trading plans), in privately negotiated transactions, and other transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws. The timing and the amount of any repurchased common stock will be determined by the Company’s management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. The repurchase program will be funded using SmartRent’s working capital and any repurchased shares will be retired. The repurchase program does not obligate SmartRent to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at SmartRent’s discretion.

Financial Outlook

“We are proud to have met our goal of achieving Adjusted EBITDA profitability in Q4 2023 while maintaining strong growth particularly in our SaaS revenue stream, which has increased 75% CAGR since 2020,” said SmartRent CFO Daryl Stemm. “Our strong balance sheet will allow us to invest in the business and generate enhanced shareholder value while maintaining sufficient liquidity for ample financial flexibility. We are constantly evaluating opportunities for the prudent deployment of our cash to generate highly attractive returns for our shareholders.”

SmartRent believes Community WiFi offers a tremendous and sustainable multi-billion dollar growth opportunity and, as part of its investment to capture that long-term opportunity, growth and profitability may be impacted in the first half of the year as Wi-Fi sales cycles and deployments require significantly longer periods of time versus the IoT offerings. The Company anticipates growth and profitability will rebound in the second half of the year.

Accordingly, guidance for Q1 and full-year 2024 are as follows:

First Quarter 2024 Guidance

  • Total Revenue of $47 to $53 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $(1) million to positive $250 thousand

Full-Year 2024 Guidance

  • Total Revenue of $260 to $290 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $5 to $8 million

The estimates presented above represent a range of possible outcomes and may differ materially from actual results. These estimates exclude the impact of potential acquisitions, capital markets activities, and unforeseen continued challenges with supply chain and logistics. The estimates are forward-looking based on the Company’s current assessment of demand for its product, execution capabilities and market conditions, as well as other risks outlined below under the caption “Forward-Looking Statements.”

SmartRent has not provided the forward-looking GAAP equivalents or a GAAP reconciliation for forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA in this presentation due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as stock-based compensation expense. Accordingly, a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income or loss is not available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to note that material changes to reconciling items could have a significant effect on future GAAP results.

Understanding the information contained in these filings is important in order to fully understand the Company's reported financial results and our business outlook for future periods.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, SmartRent also discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release., including EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA These financial measures are not recognized measures under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before the following items: stock-based compensation expense, non-employee warrant expense, non-recurring warranty provisions, asset impairment, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-recurring expenses in connection with acquisitions, severance charges, and other expenses caused by non-recurring, or unusual, events that are not indicative of our ongoing business. We define EBITDA as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP before interest income/expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may be determined or calculated differently by other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures have been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not used as measures of SmartRent’s liquidity and should not be considered alternatives to net income or loss or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

SmartRent’s management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in a number of ways to assess the Company’s financial and operating performance and believes that these measures provide useful information to investors regarding financial and business trends related to SmartRent’s results of operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also used to identify certain expenses and make decisions designed to help SmartRent meet its current financial goals and optimize its financial performance, while neutralizing the impact of expenses included in its operating results which could otherwise mask underlying trends in its business. SmartRent’s management believes that investors are provided with a more meaningful understanding of SmartRent’s ongoing operating performance when non-GAAP financial information is viewed with GAAP financial information.

Operating Metrics Defined

SmartRent regularly monitors several operating and financial metrics including the following non-GAAP financial measures which the Company believes are key measures of its growth, to evaluate its operating performance, identify trends affecting its business, formulate business plans, measure its progress, and make strategic decisions. These metrics may not provide accurate predictions of future GAAP financial results.

Units Deployed is defined as the aggregate number of Hub Devices that have been installed (including customer self-installations) as of a stated measurement date.

New Units Deployed is defined as the aggregate number of Hub Devices that were installed (including customer self-installations) during a stated measurement period.

Units Shipped is defined as the aggregate number of Hub Devices that have been shipped from warehouse locations during a stated measurement period.

Units Booked is defined as the aggregate number of Hub Device units associated with binding orders executed during a stated measurement period. The Company utilizes the concept of Units Booked to measure estimated near-term resource demand and the resulting approximate range of post-delivery revenue that it will earn and record. Units Booked represent binding orders only.

Bookings represent the contract value of hardware, professional services, and the first year of ARR for binding orders executed during a stated measurement period.

Annual Recurring Revenue (“ARR”) is defined as the annualized value of our recurring SaaS revenue earned in the current quarter.

Average Revenue per Unit (“ARPU”) is used to assess the growth and health of the overall business and reflects our ability to acquire, retain, engage and monetize our customers, and thereby drive revenue. Each revenue stream ARPU is calculated as follows:

Hardware ARPU is total hardware revenue during a given period divided by the total Units Shipped during the same period.

Professional Services ARPU is total professional services revenue during a given period divided by the total New Units Deployed during the same period.

SaaS ARPU is total SaaS revenue during a given period divided by the average aggregate Units Deployed in the same period.

Net Revenue Retention is defined as revenue from customers at the end of a prior period compared to revenue from the same set of customers at the end of the current period. This includes any reductions in revenue caused by cancellations or downgrades, offset by additions to revenue from price increases on existing products, additions of new products at existing properties and subscription upgrades.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA: Management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to identify controllable expenses and make decisions designed to help us meet our current financial goals and optimize our financial performance, while neutralizing the impact of expenses included in our operating results which could otherwise mask underlying trends in our business.
