AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 11, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Phunware, Inc. (NASDAQ: PHUN) (“Phunware” or the “Company”), a fully-integrated enterprise cloud platform for mobile that provides products, solutions, data and services for brands worldwide, today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.
“After previously guiding investors to an upwardly revised top-line revenue growth exceeding 275% year-over-year for Q2, we are thrilled to have outperformed that target with a new second quarter record for reported revenues as a public company, delivering actual revenues exceeding 282% growth to close the first half of our fiscal year,” said Alan S. Knitowski, President, CEO and Co-Founder of Phunware. “We continue operating effectively at the intersection of mobile, cloud, big data and blockchain across all lines of business and continue to activate our MaaS Loyalty and Rewards ecosystem through PhunWallet, PhunToken, PhunCoin and PhunVerse, commercializing a truly decentralized global data economy in both the physical and virtual worlds. Importantly, and in tandem, we are reiterating our forward revenue guidance for 2022 of up roughly 250% year-over-year, or $25M. In parallel, we also expect that the back-end of 2022 will represent a new second half record for reported revenues as a public company for its comparable period.”
Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results
- Net Revenues for the quarter totaled $5.5 million
- Multiscreen-as-a-Service (MaaS) Platform Revenues were $1.6 million
- Hardware Revenues were $3.9 million
- Net Loss was $(17.1) million, inclusive of $(12.2) million impairment of digital assets
- Net Loss per Share was $(0.17), inclusive of $(0.12) per Share impairment of digital assets
- Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA Loss was $(6.6) million
“We continued to build on the momentum from Q1 by posting our largest revenue Q2 quarter as a public company,” said Matt Aune, CFO of Phunware. “In addition to the outstanding top line growth of 282% year-over-year, we continued to invest in the business to further bolster our product offerings and enable us to deliver our solutions even faster and more efficiently. We are pleased with the sequential improvements made to our gross margins and expect to see continued improvement as we bring the new Lyte by Phunware facility online in Q3 in Austin. Rolling forward, we expect to close the third quarter strong sequentially, activate PhunCoin for trading on Securitize and continue to deliver dramatic year-over-year growth for the remainder of the fiscal year.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation
Our non-GAAP financial measures include adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") (our "non-GAAP financial measures"). Our non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. They are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to revenue or net loss, as applicable, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other businesses. Our non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include: (i) Non-cash compensation is and will remain a key element of our overall long-term incentive compensation package, although we exclude it as an expense when evaluating its ongoing operating performance for a particular period, (ii) Our non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect the impact of certain charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of ongoing operations, and (iii) other companies in our industry may calculate our non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
We compensate for these limitations to our non-GAAP financial measures by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using our non-GAAP financial measures only for supplemental purposes. Our non-GAAP financial measures include adjustments for items that may not occur in future periods. However, we believe these adjustments are appropriate because the amounts recognized can vary significantly from period to period, do not directly relate to the ongoing operations of our business and complicate comparisons of our internal operating results and operating results of other peer companies over time. Each of the normal recurring adjustments and other adjustments described in this paragraph help management with a measure of our operating performance over time by removing items that are not related to day-to-day operations or are non-cash expenses.
