NETGEAR Reports First Quarter 2023 Results

NETGEAR, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTGR), a global networking company that delivers innovative networking and Internet connected products to consumers and businesses, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended April 2, 2023.

• First quarter 2023 net revenue of $180.9 million, a decrease of 14.1% from the comparable prior-year quarter.
• First quarter 2023 GAAP operating loss of $12.0 million, or (6.6)% of net revenue, as compared to operating loss of $58.5 million, or (27.8)% of net revenue, in the comparable prior-year quarter.
  • First quarter 2023 non-GAAP operating loss of $7.1 million, or (3.9)% of net revenue, as compared to operating loss of $9.3 million, or (4.4)% of net revenue, in the comparable prior-year quarter.
• First quarter 2023 GAAP net loss per diluted share of $0.33, as compared to net loss per diluted share of $1.95 in the comparable prior-year quarter.
  • First quarter 2023 non-GAAP net loss per diluted share of $0.19, as compared to net loss per diluted share of $0.28 in the comparable prior-year quarter.

The accompanying schedules provide a reconciliation of financial measures computed on a GAAP basis to financial measures computed on a non-GAAP basis.

Patrick Lo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NETGEAR, commented, “Due to unprecedented inventory reduction by our largest Service Provider partner, as well as a similar reduction in SMB inventory by our largest e-commerce partner, our first quarter revenue and operating margin came in below our expectations. As a result of the uncertain macroeconomic environment and concerns over their own operations, our channel partners continue to materially reduce their inventory to historically low levels, greatly impacting our top line and resulting in lost operating leverage. However, propelled by ProAV, SMB end user sales grew by double digits year over year, and our premium CHP products again vastly outperformed the broader market, growing sequentially despite normal seasonal patterns. Buoyed by the shift to our higher-margin, premium products, and improved transportation costs, NETGEAR delivered an impressive non-GAAP gross margin of 33.6% for an improvement of 540 basis points year over year.”

Mr. Lo continued, “The continued outperformance of our premium products represented by our Orbi 8 and Orbi 9, 5G mobile hotspots, and ProAV managed switches clearly demonstrates the sustainability of the margin expansion potential of our core long-term growth thesis even in the face of macroeconomic headwinds. With the upcoming move to WiFi 7, we are once again at the forefront of bringing the newest technology to market with our recently launched Nighthawk RS700, NETGEAR’s first WiFi 7 router. Our services business continues to gain traction, ending the quarter with 772,000 paid subscribers, as our paid subscriber base continues to grow with the demand for our premium WiFi products and comprehensive Armor security service. We remain encouraged by this progress and are on pace to reach our full year target of 875,000 subscribers.”

Business Outlook

Bryan Murray, Chief Financial Officer of NETGEAR, added, “We expect to continue to experience strong underlying demand in the SMB business and the premium portion of our CHP product portfolio, even in the face of ongoing broad-based inflationary pressures and an uncertain macroeconomic environment. We will continue to work with our channel partners across both businesses to optimize their inventory carrying levels, and expect a revenue impact from these efforts to be at a similar level as experienced in the first quarter. Accordingly, we expect our second quarter net revenue to be in the range of $150 million to $165 million. We expect second quarter GAAP operating margin to be in the range of (13.4)% to (10.4)%, and non-GAAP operating margin is expected to be in the range of (9.0)% to (6.0)%. Our GAAP tax rate is expected to be approximately 11.0%, and our non-GAAP tax rate is expected to be 6.0% for the second quarter of 2023.

A reconciliation between the Business Outlook on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis is provided in the following table:

		Three months ending
		July 2, 2023
		Operating Margin Rate		Tax Rate
GAAP		(13.4)% - (10.4)%		11.0%
Estimated adjustments for1:
Stock-based compensation expense		3.2%		-
Amortization of intangibles		0.1%		-
Restructuring and other charges		1.1%		-
Non-GAAP tax adjustments		-		(5.0)%
Non-GAAP		(9.0)% - (6.0)%		6.0%

¹ Business outlook does not include estimates for any currently unknown income and expense items which, by their nature, could arise late in a quarter, including: litigation reserves, net; acquisition-related charges; impairment charges; restructuring and other charges and discrete tax benefits or detriments that cannot be forecasted (e.g., windfalls or shortfalls from equity awards or items related to the resolution of uncertain tax positions). New material income and expense items such as these could have a significant effect on our guidance and future GAAP results.

Non-GAAP Financial Information:

To supplement our unaudited selected financial data presented on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), we disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain charges, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP sales and marketing, non-GAAP general and administrative, non-GAAP other operating expenses, net, non-GAAP total operating expenses, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP other income (expenses), net, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per diluted share. These supplemental measures exclude adjustments for amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, goodwill impairment, restructuring and other charges, litigation reserves, net, gain/loss on investments, net, and adjust for effects related to non-GAAP tax adjustments. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. We compensate for the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of our performance.

In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items to facilitate a review of the comparability of our operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such items are not, in our view, related to our ongoing operational performance. We use non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of our business, for comparison with forecasts and strategic plans, and for benchmarking performance externally against competitors. In addition, management’s incentive compensation is determined using certain non-GAAP measures. Since we find these measures to be useful, we believe that investors benefit from seeing results “through the eyes” of management in addition to seeing GAAP results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with our GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by offering:

• the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our on-going operating results;
• the ability to better identify trends in our underlying business and perform related trend analyses;
• a better understanding of how management plans and measures our underlying business; and
• an easier way to compare our operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of competitors that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

The following are explanations of the adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures, as well as the reasons for excluding them in the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures:

Amortization of intangibles consists primarily of non-cash charges that can be impacted by, among other things, the timing and magnitude of acquisitions. We consider our operating results without these charges when evaluating our ongoing performance and forecasting our earnings trends, and therefore exclude such charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that the assessment of our operations excluding these costs is relevant to our assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of our competitors.

Stock-based compensation expense consists of non-cash charges for the estimated fair value of stock options, restricted stock units, performance shares and shares under the employee stock purchase plan granted to employees. We believe that the exclusion of these charges provides for more accurate comparisons of our operating results to peer companies due to the varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types. In addition, we believe it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact stock-based compensation expense has on our operating results.

Other items consist of certain items that are the result of either unique or unplanned events, including, when applicable: change in fair value of contingent consideration, goodwill impairment, restructuring and other charges, litigation reserves, net, and gain/loss on investments, net. It is difficult to predict the occurrence or estimate the amount or timing of these items in advance. Although these events are reflected in our GAAP financial statements, these unique transactions may limit the comparability of our on-going operations with prior and future periods. The amounts result from events that often arise from unforeseen circumstances, which often occur outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations. Therefore, the amounts do not accurately reflect the underlying performance of our continuing business operations for the period in which they are incurred.

Non-GAAP tax adjustments consist of adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures in order to provide a more meaningful measure on non-GAAP net loss. We believe providing financial information with and without the income tax effects relating to our non-GAAP financial measures provides our management and users of the financial statements with better clarity regarding the on-going performance of our business. Non-GAAP income tax expense (benefit) is computed on a current and deferred basis with non-GAAP loss consistent with use of non-GAAP loss as a performance measure. The Non-GAAP tax provision (benefit) is calculated by adjusting the GAAP tax provision (benefit) for the impact of the non-GAAP adjustments, with specific tax provisions such as state income tax and Base-erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax recomputed on a non-GAAP basis. For interim periods, the non-GAAP income tax provision (benefit) is calculated based on the forecasted annual non-GAAP tax rate before discrete items and adjusted for interim discrete items.
