ROLLING MEADOWS, Ill., Nov. 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Cambium Networks Corporation ("Cambium Networks") (NASDAQ: CMBM), a leading provider of wireless networking infrastructure solutions, today announced financial results for the third quarter 2022 ended September 30, 2022.
(in millions, except percentages)
Refer to Supplemental Financial Information accompanying this press release for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP numbers and for reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.
"We delivered strong results including higher than anticipated revenues, increased gross margin, and solid profitability during our third quarter," said Atul Bhatnagar, president and CEO. "Our supply chain continued to improve and we remain positive on delivering a strong finish to the remainder of the year."
Bhatnagar continued, "Cambium's broadening portfolio of gigabit wireless products and solutions allows network operators to dramatically improve performance and quality of service for their customers. Our Wi-Fi 6/6E and switching solutions all reached new records, and we remain excited about the opening of new spectrum to drive the next generation of multi-gigabit fixed wireless broadband growth."
Revenues of $81.2 million for the third quarter 2022 increased $5.3 million year-over-year primarily as a result record demand for Enterprise products, and higher Point-to-Point revenues, partially offset by lower Point-to-Multi-Point revenues primarily due to lower demand from service providers ahead of product transitions to new technologies. Revenues for the third quarter 2022 increased by $11.9 million compared to $69.3 million for the second quarter 2022, due to record Enterprise revenues, offset by lower Point-to-Multi-Point and slightly lower Point-to-Point revenues.
GAAP gross margin for the third quarter 2022 was 50.7%, compared to 47.4% for the third quarter 2021, and 48.3% for the second quarter 2022. GAAP operating income for the third quarter 2022 was $10.0 million, compared to $5.8 million for the third quarter 2021, and $2.7 million for the second quarter 2022. GAAP net income for the third quarter 2022 was $9.4 million, or net earnings of $0.34 per diluted share, compared to $4.6 million, or net earnings of $0.16 per diluted share for the third quarter 2021, and $2.3 million, or net earnings of $0.08 per diluted share for the second quarter 2022.
Non-GAAP gross margin for the third quarter 2022 was 51.3%, compared to 47.8% for the third quarter 2021, and 48.9% for the second quarter 2022. Non-GAAP operating income for the third quarter 2022 was $13.8 million, compared to $8.7 million for the third quarter 2021, and $6.3 million for the second quarter 2022. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter 2022 was $11.3 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, compared to $6.7 million, or $0.23 per diluted share for the third quarter 2021, and $5.0 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the second quarter 2022. For the third quarter 2022, adjusted EBITDA was $14.7 million or 18.2% of revenues, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $9.6 million or 12.6% of revenues for the third quarter 2021, and $7.8 million or 11.3% of revenues for the second quarter 2022.
Cash provided by operating activities was $2.2 million for the third quarter 2022, compared to $11.8 million for the third quarter 2021, and $10.0 million for the second quarter 2022. Cash totaled $44.9 million as of September 30, 2022, $13.7 million lower than September 30, 2021, due primarily to higher inventories and the paydown of debt, offset by earnings.

The forward-looking statements in this document are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this document and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions including those described in the "Risk factors" section of our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2022, and most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on August 5, 2022.

Use of non-GAAP (Adjusted) Financial Measures
In addition to providing financial measurements based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), we provide additional financial metrics that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP (non-GAAP), including Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP pre-tax income, non-GAAP provision for income taxes, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP fully weighted basic and diluted shares. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for financial and operational decision making, for planning and forecasting purposes, to measure executive compensation and to evaluate our financial performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures help us to identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses that we exclude in the calculations of the non-GAAP financial measures.
We believe that these financial measures reflect our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in the business and provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects. Although the calculation of non-GAAP financial measures may vary from company to company, our detailed presentation may facilitate analysis and comparison of our operating results by management and investors with other peer companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results in their public disclosures. These non-GAAP financial measures are discussed below.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income as reported in our consolidated statements of income excluding the impact of (i) interest expense (income), net; (ii) income tax provision (benefit); (iii) depreciation and amortization expense; (iv) nonrecurring legal expenses, (v) share-based compensation expense, (vi) secondary offering expenses, (vii) one-time costs, and (viii) restructuring expenses. EBITDA is widely used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate the profitability of companies. EBITDA eliminates potential differences in performance caused by variations in capital structures (affecting net finance costs), tax positions (such as the availability of net operating losses against which to relieve taxable profits), the cost and age of tangible assets (affecting relative depreciation expense) and the extent to which intangible assets are identifiable (affecting relative amortization expense). We adjust EBITDA to also exclude nonrecurring legal expenses since this is one-time in nature and does not reflect our ongoing operations. We adjust EBITDA for share-based compensation expense which is a non-cash expense that varies in amount from period to period and is dependent on market forces that are often beyond Cambium Networks control. As a result, management excludes this item from Cambium Networks internal operating forecasts and models. We also adjust EBITDA to exclude one-time costs and restructuring expenses and secondary offering expenses as these relate to events outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations and to provide a more accurate comparison of our ongoing business results.
Non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP net income are used as a supplement to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe these non-GAAP measures are the most meaningful for period-to-period comparisons because they exclude the impact of share-based compensation expense, restructuring expenses and secondary offering expenses, nonrecurring legal expenses, write-down of debt issuance costs upon prepayment of debt, amortization of acquired intangibles, and amortization of capitalized software costs as we do not consider these costs and expenses to be indicative of our ongoing operations.
Share-based compensation expense and associated employment taxes paid are excluded. Management may issue different types of awards, including share options, restricted share awards and restricted share units, as well as awards with performance or other market characteristics, and excludes the associated expense in this non-GAAP measure. Share-based compensation expense is a non-cash expense that varies in amount from period to period and is dependent on market forces that are often beyond Cambium Networks control while the associated employment taxes are cash-based expenses that vary in amount from period-to-period and are dependent on market forces as well as jurisdictional tax regulations that are often beyond Cambium Networks control.
Amortization of acquired intangibles includes customer relationships, unpatented technology, patents, software, and trademarks, and are excluded since these are not indicative of continuing operations.
Amortization of capitalized software costs include capitalized research and development activities amortized over their useful life and included in cost of revenues and are excluded since these are not indicative of continuing operations.
Restructuring expenses consist primarily of severance costs for employees which are not related to future operating expenses. Cambium Networks excludes these expenses since they result from an event that is outside the ordinary course of continuing operations. Excluding these charges permits more accurate comparisons of Cambium Networks ongoing business results.
Our non-GAAP tax adjustments include the tax impacts from share-based compensation expense including excess or decremental tax benefits available to the company that are recorded when incurred. Cambium Networks excludes these amounts to more closely approximate the company's ongoing effective tax rate after adjusting for one-time or unique reoccurring items. The associated non-GAAP effective tax rate is also applied to the gross amount of non-GAAP adjustments for purposes of calculating non-GAAP net income in total and on a per-share basis. This approach is designed to enhance the ability of investors to understand the company's tax expense on its current operations, provide improved modeling accuracy, and substantially reduce fluctuations caused by GAAP adjustments which may not reflect actual cash tax expense.
Non-GAAP fully weighted basic and diluted shares are shown as outstanding during the entire period presented and include dilutive shares if their effect to earnings per share is dilutive. We also use non-GAAP fully weighted basic and diluted shares to provide more comparable per-share results across periods.
These non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of our GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations in the use of non-GAAP measures because they do not include all the expenses that must be included under GAAP and because they involve the exercise of judgment concerning exclusions of items from the comparable non-GAAP financial measure. In addition, other companies may use other measures to evaluate their performance, or may calculate non-GAAP measures differently, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. We present a "Reconciliation of GAAP Financial Measures to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" in the tables below.
