    Resonant Inc. (NASDAQ: RESN), a leader in transforming the way radio frequency, or RF, front-ends are being designed and delivered for mobile handset and wireless devices, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2018 and provided an update on its operational progress.

    Fourth Quarter Highlights

    • Exceeded the company’s end of 2018 milestone of 20 devices accepted by customers as meeting their expectations, doubling the number of devices accepted from greater than 10 devices announced at the beginning of 2018.
      • Included in these accepted devices is the company’s first ever 5G device.
    • Beat the company’s stated milestone of 10 devices shipped for royalty revenues in 2018, which was more than double the four devices shipped for royalty revenues in 2017.
    • Launched the Filter IP Standard Library with a high-performance quadplexer solution, designed in collaboration with the company’s foundry partners.
      • Signed first Filter IP Standard Library license agreement.
    • Introduced the company’s new 5G filter breakthrough technology, XBAR, at the 2018 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium (IUS) in Japan.

    Recent Highlights

    • Signed four new license agreements with an existing Tier 1 filter customer.
      • New agreements cover designs for wafer-level packaged filters for modules targeting complex carrier aggregation operation.
    • Achieved significant milestones in the development of the company’s XBAR 5G filter technology:
      • First filters using XBAR resonators have been fabricated.
      • At MWC (Mobile World Congress) 2019 Barcelona filters using XBAR resonators successfully demonstrated approximately 600 MHz bandwidth at 5 GHz, which is as much as three times the bandwidth available with current technology.
      • Filters using XBAR resonators have a significantly smaller form factor than competing dielectric-based filters.
    • Design efficiency improved through the use of Resonant’s Infinite Synthesized Networks (ISN) platform, with designers now producing on average 6.8 designs per year, up from 4.5 in 2017.

    “In 2018, we successfully executed key business operation objectives and exited the year with over 70 designs contracted, more than 20 designs have been accepted by our customers as having passed handset testing, and more than 10 devices having shipped for royalty revenue,” stated George B. Holmes, CEO of Resonant. “Our current customers are benefiting greatly from the industry leading design efficiency of our Infinite Synthesized Networks (ISN) platform, which helps eliminate our customers’ design capacity constraints. The RF front end design capacity constraint problem will only increase with the deployment of 5G, which will demand a greater number of filters and higher complexity to handle the required increased bandwidth and higher frequencies.

    “Our ISN platform is now applicable across all historical generations of wireless technology and the rapidly approaching 5G. ISN delivers solutions for our customers based on simulation rather than iteration, which reduces the time to market for our customers. Also, to reduce time to market for existing and potential customers we introduced our Filter IP Standard Library in December of 2018 and already have the first licensee. We ended 2018 with $21.3 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments, which combined with our 2018 and recent successes, we believe we are well positioned in 2019 to accelerate our revenue growth, beginning with a royalty revenue ramp in the first half of 2019 that we believe will deliver increased value for our shareholders.”

    For the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2018, Resonant recorded:

    • Revenue of $128,000, compared to $115,000 for the third quarter of 2018.
    • Royalty revenues of $39,000, compared to $30,000 for the third quarter of 2018.
    • Research and development expenses of $4.1 million, compared to $3.6 million for the third quarter of 2018.
    • Sales, marketing and administration expenses of $3.0 million, equivalent to the third quarter of 2018.
    • Operating loss of $7.0 million, compared to $6.5 million for the third quarter of 2018.
    • Net loss of $6.9 million, or $(0.25) per share, based on 27.2 million weighted average shares outstanding, compared to net loss of $6.3 million, or $(0.23) per share, based on 27.0 million weighted average shares outstanding for the third quarter of 2018.
    • Non-GAAP, adjusted EBITDA of $(5.5) million, or $(0.20) per fully diluted share, compared to $(4.9) million, or $(0.18) per fully diluted share for the third quarter in 2018.

    For the year ended December 31, 2018, Resonant recorded:

    • Revenue of $524,000, compared to $653,000 for the full year 2017.
    • Royalty revenues of $159,000, compared to $40,000 for the full year 2017.
    • Research and development expenses of $14.3 million, compared to $10.0 million for the full year 2017.
    • Sales, marketing and administration expenses of $11.5 million, compared to $9.6 million for the full year 2017.
    • Operating loss of $25.3 million, compared to $19.0 million for the full year 2017.
    • Net loss of $24.8 million, or $(0.98), per share, based on 25.3 million weighted average shares outstanding, compared to net loss of $21.7 million, or $(1.44) per share, based on 15.0 million weighted average shares outstanding for the full year 2017.
    • Non-GAAP, adjusted EBITDA of $(19.2) million, or $(0.76) per fully diluted share, compared to $(14.2) million, or $(0.95) per fully diluted share for the full year 2017.
    • Cash, cash equivalents and investments of $21.3 million, compared to $19.5 million for December 31, 2017.

    Note about Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures. Other companies may use different non-GAAP measures and presentation of results.

    In addition to financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release presents adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by taking net loss and adding interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation and warrant inducement expenses. The company believes that this non-GAAP measure, viewed in addition to and not in lieu of net loss, provides useful information to investors by providing a more focused measure of operating results. This metric is an integral part of the Company’s internal reporting to evaluate its operations and the performance of senior management. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most comparable GAAP measure, is available in the accompanying financial tables below. The non-GAAP measure presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

    About Resonant’s ISN Technology

    Resonant can create designs for difficult bands, modules and other complex RF Front End requirements that we believe have the potential to be manufactured for half the cost and developed in half the time of traditional approaches. ISN is a suite of proprietary mathematical methods, software design tools and network synthesis techniques that enable us to explore a much larger set of possible design solutions that regularly incorporate our proprietary technology. We then quickly deliver design simulations to our customers, which they manufacture or have manufactured by one of our foundry partners. These improved solutions still use Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) or Temperature Compensated Surface Acoustic Wave (TC-SAW) manufacturing methods and perform as well as those using higher cost manufacturing methods such as Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW). Resonant's method delivers excellent predictability, enabling achievement of the desired product performance in roughly half as many turns through the fab. In addition, because Resonant's models are fundamental, integration with its foundry and fab customers is seamless because its models speak the "fab language" of basic material properties and dimensions.
