Note regarding forward-looking statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
In some cases, forward-looking statements may be identified by terms such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q 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 quarterly report and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, they should not be relied upon as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur, and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Some of the key factors that could cause actual results to differ from our expectations include:
ii
We caution you that the foregoing list may not contain all of the forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events or otherwise.

Cambium Networks Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Business and significant accounting policies
Business
Cambium Networks Corporation (“Cambium” or “Cambium Networks” or the “Company”), incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, is a holding company whose principal operating entities are Cambium Networks, Ltd. (UK), Cambium Networks, Inc. (USA), and Cambium Networks Private Limited (India). On June 26, 2019, the Company completed an Initial Public Offering and the Company's ordinary shares began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market.
Cambium Networks Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries design, develop, and manufacture fixed wireless and fiber broadband and enterprise networking infrastructure solutions that are used by businesses, governments, and service providers in urban, suburban and rural environments. Cambium's products simplify and automate the design, deployment, optimization, and management of broadband and Wi-Fi access networks through intelligent automation.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cambium Networks Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2024, and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, and the related notes are unaudited. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements, and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which comprise only normal recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2024 and results of operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2024 and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2024. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. The condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K and filed with the SEC on March 15, 2024. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.
Going Concern
In accordance with the accounting guidance related to the presentation of financial statements, when preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, management evaluates whether there are conditions or events that, when considered in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. In making its assessment, management considered the Company’s current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows and conditional and unconditional obligations due over the next twelve months, as well as other factors including the markets in which the Company competes and the current customer demand for the Company’s products.
As of March 31, 2024 and through the date of filing this Quarterly Report, the Company was in compliance with all of its payment obligations and the financial covenants under its Amended Credit Agreement. The Company’s obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement do not mature and become due and payable until November 17, 2026. Please refer to Note 6. Debt, regarding the Company’s debt outstanding under its credit facilities with Bank of America.
The Company is actively taking actions to improve its profitability and ensure future compliance with applicable financial covenants, including acceleration of collection of receivables, deferral of expenditures, cost reductions to align the Company’s cost structure with current revenue levels and sales of excess inventory. In addition, the Company continues to focus on operating efficiency and reducing discretionary spending. The Company believes these actions, together with its existing cash balances, provide it with the financial flexibility needed to meet its obligations as they come due over the next twelve months. However, this conclusion depends in part on the Company’s expectations regarding macro-conditions in the markets in which it competes, customer acceptance and purchases of the Company’s products, buying decisions by the Company’s distributors and other factors that are not within the Company’s control. Based on the Company’s current forecasts, the Company is projecting future noncompliance with its financial covenants within the next twelve months, which would result in a non-payment event of default under the Amended Credit Agreement. Such a default would afford the lenders thereunder the right to declare the amounts outstanding thereunder immediately due and payable, and the Company may not be able to obtain a waiver of such a default or otherwise refinance such indebtedness. Due to these uncertainties, management concluded that substantial doubt exists with respect to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.
6
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Update to Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies disclosed in the 2023 Form 10-K, Part II, Item 8.
Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands the disclosures required in an entity's income tax rate reconciliation table and requires disclosure of income taxes paid in both U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, to be applied on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendment requires disclosures of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") and included within each reported measure of segment profit of loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment's profit or loss and assets. The new guidance also requires that a public entity that has a single reportable segment provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this update and all existing segment disclosures. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. Upon adoption, this guidance should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06 Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative. The amendments in this update require modification of certain disclosure and presentation requirements for a variety of ASU topics in response to the SEC's Release No. 33-10532. The effective date for each amended topic in the ASC is the date on which the SEC's removal of the related disclosure requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective. However, if by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the related disclosure from its regulations, the amendment will be removed from the Codification and not become effective. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.

Note 5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
There was
The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually on December 31 and more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit or asset group below its carrying amount and tests intangible assets if an indicator suggests that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Accordingly, the Company completes a quarterly qualitative triggering events assessment which considers significant events and circumstances such as a reporting unit’s historical and current results, assumptions regarding future performance, operating income or cash flows, strategic initiatives and overall economic factors, including significant negative industry or economic trends and macro-economic developments, and sustained declines in the Company's share price or market capitalization, considered in both absolute terms and relative to peers, to determine whether any of these may indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If an impairment trigger is identified, a quantitative impairment test is performed.
The qualitative assessment performed for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 included an assessment of excess inventories, supply chain constraints, and macroeconomic conditions and did not indicate the existence of an impairment trigger that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of our reporting unit below its carrying amount nor indicators suggesting that the carrying amount of intangible assets may not be recoverable. As of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024, the Company's market capitalization exceeded its net assets by

U.S. plan
U.S. employees that satisfy certain eligibility requirements, including requirements related to age and length of service, are eligible to participate in the Cambium Networks, Inc. 401(k) Plan. The plan is intended to qualify as a tax-qualified 401(k) plan so that contributions to the 401(k) plan, and income earned on such contributions, are not taxable to participants until withdrawn or distributed from the 401(k) plan. Under the 401(k) plan, each employee is fully vested in his or her deferred salary contributions. Employee contributions are held and invested by the plan’s trustee as directed by participants. Under the Cambium Networks, Inc. 401(k) Plan, the Company matches

Due to this discretion, the Company determined that the grantee does not have a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions of the performance-based awards in the First Performance Period, and a grant date will not exist until the Compensation Committee approves the adjusted earnings per share metric for the First Performance Period.

Note 9. Earnings (loss) per share
Basic net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per share is computed using the treasury method by giving effect to all potentially dilutive ordinary share equivalents outstanding for the period. For purposes of this calculation, share options, RSUs, and ESPP awards are considered to be ordinary share equivalents but are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share when including them would have an anti-dilutive effect.

Note 10. Income taxes
The Company’s provision for income taxes at March 31, 2023 is based upon the estimated annual tax rate for the year applied to federal, state and foreign income. Due to forecasting uncertainty for 2024, the Company's provision for income taxes at March 31, 2024 is based on the 3-month year-to-date actual results. The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. A significant piece of objective evidence evaluated is the cumulative income or loss incurred over the three-year period ended March 31, 2024 and whether the Company projects a loss for the current year ending December 31, 2024. Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to utilize the existing deferred tax assets before they otherwise expire. The Company considers projected future taxable income, reversing taxable temporary differences, carryback opportunities, and prudent tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. However, cumulative losses in recent periods are a significant piece of objective negative evidence that limits the Company's ability to consider certain criteria of subjective positive evidence such as projections for future growth. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the period in which those temporary differences are deductible. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable will be adjusted in future periods as
15
necessary based on the reversal pattern of deferred balances and the actual taxable income during the carryforward period, as well as any relevant new facts to be considered.
In applying the statutory tax rate in the effective income tax rate reconciliation, the Company used the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate of
Note 11. Commitments and contingencies
In accordance with ASC 460, Guarantees, the Company recognizes the fair value for guarantee and indemnification arrangements it issues or modifies, if these arrangements are within the scope of the interpretation. In addition, the Company must continue to monitor the conditions that are subject to the guarantees and indemnifications in order to identify if a loss has incurred. If the Company determines it is probable that a loss has occurred, then any such estimated loss would be recognized under those guarantees and indemnifications and would be recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and corresponding condensed consolidated balance sheets during that period.
Indemnification
The Company generally indemnifies its customers against claims brought by a third party to the extent any such claim alleges that the Company’s product infringes a patent, copyright or trademark or violates any other proprietary rights of that third party. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company may be required to make under these indemnification agreements is not estimable.
The Company indemnifies its directors and officers and select key employees, including key employees serving as directors or officers of the Company’s subsidiaries, for certain events or occurrences, subject to certain limits, while the director or officer is or was serving at the Company’s request in such capacity. The term of the indemnification period is for the director’s or officer’s term of service. The Company may terminate the indemnification agreements with its directors, officers or key employees upon the termination of their services as directors or officers of the Company or its subsidiaries, or the termination of activities for which indemnification has been provided, but termination will not affect claims for indemnification related to events occurring prior to the effective date of termination. The maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited; however, the Company has a director and officer insurance policy that limits its exposure. The Company believes the fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal.
Purchase commitments with contract manufacturers and suppliers
We purchase components from a variety of suppliers and use contract manufacturers to provide manufacturing services for our products. During the normal course of business, in order to manage manufacturing lead times and help ensure adequate component supply, we enter into agreements with contract manufacturers and suppliers that allow them to procure inventory and components based upon criteria as defined by us, such as forecasted demand. Certain of our inventory purchase commitments with contract manufacturers and suppliers relate to arrangements to secure supply and pricing for certain components for multiple periods. We record a liability for firm, noncancelable, and unconditional purchase commitments for quantities in excess of our future demand forecasts consistent with the valuation of our excess and obsolete inventory. The Company may be liable to purchase excess product or aged material or components from our suppliers following reasonable mitigation efforts.
Warranties
The Company offers a standard warranty on its products, with the term depending on the product, and records a liability for the estimated future costs associated with potential warranty claims. The Company’s responsibility under its standard warranty is the repair or replacement of in-warranty defective product, or to credit the purchase price of the defective product, at its discretion, without charge to the customer. The Company’s estimate of future warranty costs is largely based on historical experience factors including product failure rates, material usage, and service delivery cost incurred in correcting product failures. The standard warranty is included in either Other current liabilities or Other noncurrent liabilities on its condensed consolidated balance sheets, depending on the time period covered by the warranty. The Company also offers an extended warranty for purchase that represents a future performance obligation for the Company. The extended warranty is included in deferred revenues (both current and noncurrent) on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the extended warranty. The warranty costs are reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations within cost of revenues.
Legal proceedings
Third parties may from time to time assert legal claims against the Company. The Company records accruals for loss contingencies to the extent that it concludes it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the related loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company evaluates, on a regular basis, developments in legal proceedings and other matters that could
16
cause a change in amounts recorded. Due to the inherent uncertainty involving legal matters, the ultimate resolution could differ from amounts recorded. There is no pending or threatened legal proceedings to which the Company is a party, that in the Company’s opinion, is likely to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
Note 12. Segment information
The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its Chief Executive Officer. The Company’s CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. Accordingly, the Company determined that it operates as
Note 13. Revenues from contracts with customers
Revenues consist primarily of revenues from the sale of hardware products with essential embedded software. Revenues also include amounts for software products, extended warranty on hardware products and subscription services. Substantially all products are sold through distributors and other channel partners, such as resellers, managed service providers and systems integrators.
The Company recognizes revenue to reflect the transfer of control of promised products or services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for products or services.
The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.
The Company identifies its distinct performance obligations under each contract. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to the customer. Hardware products with essential embedded software, software products, and purchased extended warranty on hardware products have been identified as separate and distinct performance obligations.
The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring products or services to a customer. An adjustment to revenue is made to adjust the transaction price to exclude the consideration related to products expected to be returned. The Company records an asset at the carrying amount of the estimated stock returns and a liability for the estimated amount expected to be refunded to the customer. The transaction price also excludes other forms of consideration provided to the customer, such as volume-based rebates and co-operative marketing allowances.
The Company recognizes revenue when, or as, it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a promised product or service to a customer. Revenue from hardware products with essential embedded software is recognized when control of the asset is transferred, which is typically at the time of shipment. Revenue from perpetual license software is recognized at the point in time that the customer is able to use or benefit from the software. Extended warranty on hardware products is a performance obligation that is satisfied over time, beginning on the effective date of the warranty period and ending on the expiration of the warranty period. The Company recognizes revenue on extended warranties on a straight-line basis over the warranty period. Revenue from software subscriptions is recognized ratably over the term in which the services are provided and the performance obligation is satisfied.
The Company enters into revenue arrangements that may consist of multiple performance obligations, such as hardware products and extended warranty. The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis for each distinct product or service in the contract. The best evidence of standalone selling price is the observable price of a product or service when the Company sells that product or service separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers. If a standalone selling price is not directly observable, the Company estimates the transaction price allocated to each performance obligation using the expected costs plus a margin approach.

Deferred revenue consists of amounts due or received from customers in advance of the Company satisfying performance obligations under contractual arrangements. Deferred revenue is classified as current or noncurrent based on the timing of when revenue will be recognized. The changes in deferred revenue were due to normal timing differences between the Company’s performance and the customers’ payment.
The refund liability is the estimated amount expected to be refunded to customers in relation to product exchanges made as part of the Company’s stock rotation program and returns that have been authorized, but not yet received by the Company. It is included within Other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Receivables and concentration of credit risk
Trade accounts receivable represent amounts for which the Company has an unconditional right to payment. Amounts are in accordance with contractual terms and are recorded at face amount less an allowance for credit losses. The Company establishes an allowance for credit losses to present the net amount of accounts receivable expected to be collected. The allowance is determined by using the loss-rate method, which requires an estimation of loss rates based upon historical loss experience adjusted for factors that are relevant to determining the expected collectability of accounts receivables. Some of these factors include macroeconomic conditions that correlate with historical loss experience, delinquency trends, aging behavior of receivables and credit and liquidity indicators for individual customers.
The Company considers the credit risk of all customers and regularly monitors credit risk exposure in its trade receivables. The Company’s standard credit terms with its customers are generally net
Remaining performance obligations

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operation should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto of Cambium Networks Corporation (“Cambium”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with the financial statements and related notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed March 15, 2024. Results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any period in the future.
Overview
Cambium Networks is a global technology company that designs, develops, and manufactures fixed wireless and fiber broadband, enterprise Wi-Fi access and local area networking (LAN) infrastructure solutions for a wide range of applications, including broadband access, wireless backhaul, Internet of Things (IoT), public safety communications, and Wi-Fi access for commercial use cases. Our products enable service providers, enterprises, industrial organizations, and governments to deliver exceptional digital experiences and device connectivity, with compelling economics. Our ONE network platform simplifies the management of Cambium Networks' wired and wireless broadband and network edge technologies. Our product lines fall into three broad, interrelated categories: Fixed Wireless & fiber Broadband (FWB), Enterprise networking, and Subscription and Services. The FWB portfolio spans point-to-point (PTP) and point-to-multi-point (PMP) architectures over multiple standards, including IEEE 802.11 and 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Program) and frequency bands, including licensed, unlicensed, and lightly licensed spectrum, and fiber products. In the third quarter of 2023, we introduced and had our first commercial shipments of a passive optical networking (PON) solution, supporting Gigabit PON (GPON) and XGS-PON (also known as 10G-PON or G987). The Enterprise portfolio includes a complete range of indoor and outdoor Wi-Fi access points, indoor and hardened copper and optical based ethernet switches, and integrated security gateway and software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) devices.
The Subscription and Services portfolio includes network planning and design as well as cloud or on-premises network management and control solutions. The latter capability, delivered through subscription to cnMaestro X, forms the foundation of our ONE Network, a cloud-based network management architecture that allows users to remotely configure, monitor, and manage their wired and wireless network. It provides a single, centralized view of all Cambium Network devices, as well as real-time performance and usage data, allowing users to control and optimize the network configuration and settings. Advanced services offered in conjunction with this platform include application visibility and control, which is used to optimize end-user experiences; and "Assists" which provide network administrators suggestions on trouble shooting or optimizing network settings. The integrated security gateway and SD-WAN for small and medium businesses is also associated with a subscription for network security services.
Trends impacting our business
During 2023, although we experienced an overall improvement in the supply chain constraints that had persisted industry-wide for multiple periods prior to 2023, we identified an increase in channel inventories, particularly of our Enterprise products and point-to-multi-point products, as channel partners had increased purchases in prior periods in reaction to the supply constraints. As a result, we experienced a reduction in distributor purchases and an increase in stock rotations in 2023 in the first quarter of 2024 as distributors endeavored to right-size their inventories. The level of inventory at distributors has improved and is now reaching historic levels. However, there is a risk distributors may choose to maintain lower levels of inventory than historically has been the case which could delay our revenue recovery. The high level of inventory across the industry along with macroeconomic factors such as higher interest rates which impact private sector capital investment, and concerns about a global economic slow-down have resulted in softened demand. This has continued to negatively impact net revenues in the first quarter of 2024 and is also expected to negatively impact revenues in the second quarter of 2024. To reduce excess channel inventories, we have provided and may continue to provide additional discounts and other incentives to our customers. Further, in addition to the amounts recorded in the fourth quarter of 2023, in the first quarter of 2024, we recorded $6.2 million provision for inventory excess and obsolescence and $0.8 million loss on supplier commitments expense due to a decrease in demand and to offset the risk that technology shifts could result in this increased inventory becoming obsolete before it is deployed.
Revenues from our Enterprise products have declined beginning in the second quarter of 2023, partly resulting from increased competition as a result of readily available component supply reducing our prior advantage in supply and order fulfillment, aggressive pricing by our competitors and poor macroeconomic conditions in our primary markets resulting in lower order volumes from our distributors. Additionally, revenues declined due to a delay in government defense orders due to U.S. Federal budgetary timing issues impacting the PTP business; sluggish revenues in the PMP business, which is expected to continue until the FCC's approval and subsequent ramp of sales of Cambium's 6 GHz products; a decrease in orders and an increase in stock rotations from distributors in the Enterprise business; and continued economic headwinds, particularly in EMEA.
21
We have taken and continue to take actions to address these issues, including actions to reduce inventory of our Enterprise products as well as to reduce our operating costs to improve profitability and cash flow. We also continue to work closely with our contract manufacturers and supply chain partners to balance production to market demand.
We continue to monitor the impact of macroeconomic factors, including a potential global recession, inflationary pressures, and growing political tensions as a result of regional conflicts. We also believe that our customers continue to grapple with the impact of these macroeconomic factors on their businesses and future investment plans, resulting in business uncertainty and a more constrained approach to forecasts and orders. Any prolonged economic disruptions, further deterioration in the global economy or outbreaks of international hostilities could have a negative impact on demand from our customers in future periods.
The impact of reverse globalization, including a more nationalistic trend globally leading to increasing government requirements for domestically produced products or limiting the sourcing of components and other products from China and elsewhere, has led us to limit our reliance on third-party manufacturers in China and move manufacturing to other locations, which could cause disruptions in our supply operations. Nationalistic trends are occurring in various geographies which may make it impractical for us to do business in some countries.
Financial results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024
Basis of presentation
Revenues
Our revenues are generated primarily from the sale of our products, which consist of hardware with essential embedded software. Our revenues also include amounts for software products, extended warranty on hardware products and subscription services. We generally recognize product revenues at the time of shipment, provided that all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. Revenues are recognized net of estimated stock returns, volume-based rebates and cooperative marketing allowances that we provide to distributors. We recognize subscription services revenue ratably over the term in which services are provided and our performance obligation is satisfied. We provide a standard warranty on our hardware products, with the term depending on the product, and record a liability for the estimated future costs associated with potential warranty claims. In addition, we also offer extended warranties for purchase and represents a future performance obligation for us. The extended warranty is included in deferred revenues and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the extended warranty.
Cost of revenues and gross profit
Our cost of revenues is comprised primarily of the costs of procuring finished goods from our third-party manufacturers, third-party logistics and warehousing provider costs, freight costs and warranty costs. We outsource our manufacturing to third-party manufacturers located primarily in Mexico, China, Israel and Taiwan. Cost of revenues also includes costs associated with supply operations, including personnel related costs and allocated overhead costs, provision for excess and obsolete inventory, third-party license costs and third-party costs related to services we provide. Cost of revenues also includes amortization of capitalized software development costs associated with products marketed to be sold.
Gross profit has been and will continue to be affected by various factors, including changes in product mix. The margin profile of products within each of our core product categories can vary significantly depending on the operating performance, features and manufacturer of the product. Gross margin will also vary as a function of changes in pricing due to competitive pressure, our third-party manufacturing and other production costs, cost of shipping and logistics, provision for excess and obsolete inventory and other factors. We expect our gross margins will fluctuate from period to period depending on the interplay of these various factors.
22
Operating expenses
We classify our operating expense as research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expense. Personnel costs are the primary component of each of these operating expense categories, which consist of personnel costs, such as salaries, sales commissions, benefits, bonuses and share-based compensation expense. In addition, we separate depreciation and amortization in their own category.
Research and development
In addition to personnel-related costs, research and development expenses consist of costs associated with design and development of our products, product certification, travel, recruiting and shared facilities and shared IT costs. We generally recognize research and development expense as incurred. We capitalize certain software project costs under development during the period between determining technological feasibility of the product and commercial release. We amortize the capitalized development cost upon commercial release, generally over three years, and this is included in cost of revenues. We typically do not capitalize costs related to the development of first-generation product offerings as technological feasibility generally coincides with general availability of the software.
Sales and marketing
In addition to personnel-related costs for sales, marketing, service and product line management personnel, sales and marketing expenses consist of our training programs, trade shows, marketing programs, promotional materials, demonstration equipment, national and local regulatory approval on our products, travel and entertainment, recruiting, digital marketing platforms, third-party marketing services and shared facilities and shared IT costs.
General and administrative
In addition to personnel-related costs, general and administrative expenses consist of professional fees, such as legal, audit, accounting, information technology and consulting costs, insurance, shared facilities and shared IT costs, and other supporting overhead costs.
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization expenses consist of depreciation related to fixed assets such as computer equipment, furniture and fixtures, and testing equipment, as well as amortization related to acquired and software for internal use and definite lived intangibles.
Provision for income taxes
Our provision for income taxes consists primarily of income taxes in the jurisdictions in which we conduct business. Management assesses our deferred tax assets in each reporting period, and if it is determined that it is not more likely than not to be realized, we will record a valuation allowance in that period.

Revenues decreased $35.1 million, or 45.3%, to $42.3 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, from $77.4 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023, with the largest decrease in our enterprise product category driven by lower order volumes from distributors as channel inventory levels start to recover, but still remain high. Revenues also decreased in our point-to-multi-point product category ahead of a product transition to 6 GHz technology and our point-to-point product category driven by decreased demand for backhaul and unlicensed products.

Point-to-Multi-Point
Our PMP revenues decreased $2.9 million, or 12.9%, from the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to 2024. Our decrease in point-to-multi-point revenues were driven by lower demand from service providers in North America as they await the approval of our 6 GHz products, but benefited from increased demand for our ePMP and 60GHz products in Europe, Middle East, Africa.
Point-to-Point
PTP revenues decreased $3.6 million, or 20.0%, from the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to 2024 mostly driven by lower demand for backhaul and unlicensed spectrum products in North America and decreased demand for defense products in Europe, Middle East, Africa.
Enterprise
Enterprise revenues decreased $28.5 million, or 79.9%, from the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to 2024. Enterprise revenues decreased in all regions except Caribbean and Latin America, with the largest decrease in North America and Europe, Middle East, Africa, driven mostly by lower order volumes from distributors. Enterprise product revenues are starting to improve, but are still impacted by the recovery of the product supply chain during 2023 which reduced our prior advantage in supply and order fulfillment and therefore, increased competition, coupled with aggressive pricing by our competitors, as well as higher inventory levels still in the channel.

Revenues decreased in all regions except Caribbean and Latin America from the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to March 31, 2024. North America revenues decreased $22.5 million, or 47.4%, with the largest decrease in enterprise product revenues due to decreased demand from high levels of channel inventory, along with lower PMP and PTP revenues due to decreased demand. Europe, Middle East, Africa revenues decreased by $11.3 million, or 57.3%, mostly driven by lower enterprise product revenues due to decreased demand as a result of high channel inventory and lower PTP revenues due to lower demand from defense, partially offset by higher PMP revenues due to increased demand. Caribbean and Latin America revenues increased $1.2 million, or 32.8%, mostly driven by higher PMP and enterprise product revenues partially offset by lower PTP revenues. Asia Pacific revenues decreased $2.4 million, or 37.9%, mostly driven by lower enterprise product revenues and lower PTP revenues both due to decreased demand.

Cost of revenues decreased $4.1 million, or 10.8%, to $33.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 from $37.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in cost of revenues was primarily due to decreased revenues but was partially offset by $6.2 million provision for excess and obsolescence recorded in the three-months ended March 31, 2024, a $4.8 million increase from the three-month period ended March 31, 2023, and higher material fixed costs. The increase in the excess and obsolescence reserve was mostly due to a drop in lifetime demand.
Gross margin decreased to 20.5% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 from 51.2% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. The decrease primarily reflects the impact from an increase in our excess and obsolescence reserve, increased incentives and lower revenues from higher margin products.

Research and development
Research and development expense decreased $3.5 million, or 24.3%, to $10.8 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 from $14.3 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. As a percentage of revenues, research and development expenses increased to 25.5% in 2024 from 18.4% in 2023 over the same period. The decrease in research and development expense was primarily due to $1.7 million lower staff-related costs, mostly due to a reduction in headcount from restructuring activities, $1.0 million lower corporate bonus expense as we failed to meet bonus targets, $0.5 million lower outside contractor spend due to the restructuring actions implemented in 2023, $0.3 million lower share-based compensation due to lower headcount and $0.2 million lower homologation and regulatory fees due to the timing of projects. These reductions were offset by a $0.3 million increase in restructuring expenses related to additional headcount reductions completed in the first quarter of 2024.
Sales and marketing
Sales and marketing expense decreased $1.9 million, or 16.7%, to $9.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 from $11.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. As a percentage of revenues, sales and marketing expense increased to 23.0% in 2024 from 15.1% in 2023 over the same period. The decrease in sales and marketing expense was primarily due to $1.0 million lower staff-related costs, mostly due to a reduction in headcount from restructuring activities, $0.4 million lower marketing-related spend, mostly due to lower spend on trade shows, $0.3 million lower corporate bonus expense as we failed to meet bonus targets, and $0.3 million lower outside contractor spend.
General and administrative
General and administrative expense increased $0.8 million, or 12.6%, to $7.5 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 from $6.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expense increased to 17.7% in 2024 from 8.6% in 2023 over the same period. The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to $0.6 million increase in bad debt expense recorded in the first quarter of 2024, $0.3 million expense incurred as part of the Chief Financial Officer transition, $0.3 million higher share-based compensation expense, mostly due to new grants awarded in 2023, $0.1 million of nonrecurring expenses and $0.1 million higher legal expense, partially offset by $0.5 million lower corporate bonus expense as we failed to meet bonus targets.

Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense increased slightly by $0.1 million from the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to the three-month period ended March 31, 2024.

Our provision for income taxes at March 31, 2023 was based upon the estimated annual tax rate for the year, applied to federal, state and foreign income. Due to forecasting uncertainty for 2024, our provision for income taxes at March 31, 2024 is based on 3-month year-to-date actual results. Our provision for income taxes was $4.5 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 versus a provision for income taxes of $0.5 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. The effective income tax rates were (20.7)% and 11.2% over the same periods, respectively. In the three-month period ended March 31, 2023, the effective tax rate of 11.2% was different from the statutory rate of 21.0%, primarily due to Foreign Derived Intangible Income and tax benefits arising on Research and Development tax credits. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, our effective tax rate of (20.7)% was different from the statutory rate of 21.0%, primarily due to an increase in the valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets of the UK and U.S. companies, the tax benefit on Foreign Derived Intangible Income, and tax benefits arising on U.S. Research and Development tax credits. We increased the valuation allowance based on the analysis of cumulative income and loss positions, future income projection, and operating plans. The UK net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2023 were comprised primarily of NOL carryforwards, corporate interest restriction carryforwards and acquired intangibles and amounting to $23.6 million. The increase in the UK valuation allowance during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 amounted to $5.9 million, for a total valuation allowance at March 31, 2024 of $29.5 million. The U.S. net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2023 were comprised primarily of capitalized research costs and share-based compensation, amounting to $15.8 million. The U.S. net deferred tax assets increased by $1.2 million during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, to total U.S. net deferred tax assets at March 31, 2024 of $17.0 million. The U.S. valuation allowance at December 31, 2023 was $12.1 million. The increase in the U.S. valuation allowance during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 amounted to $4.9 million, for a total valuation allowance at March 31, 2024 of $17.0 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2024, we had a cash balance of $38.7 million, an increase of $20.0 million from December 31, 2023. We drew $40.0 million on our revolving credit facility in the first quarter of 2024 to help manage our working capital needs for the near future, mainly to: (i) fund normal operating expenses; (ii) meet interest and principal requirements of our outstanding indebtedness; and (iii) fund capital expenditures. Our future capital requirements may vary materially from those currently planned and will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, the timing of new product introductions, market acceptance of our products and overall economic conditions. We continue to focus on cost management, operating efficiency and efficient discretionary spending. We expect to regularly assess our liquidity needs and market conditions and
27
may raise additional equity or incur additional debt if and when our board of directors determines that doing so is in our best interest. For the first quarter of 2024, all quarterly principal and interest payments have been made in accordance with the terms of our credit facility with Bank of America. As of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all affirmative and negative covenants.

Net cash used in operating activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 of $6.0 million consisted of net income of $4.3 million, share-based compensation expense of $2.9 million and adjustments for depreciation and amortization and other non-cash impacts of $3.3 million, an increase in deferred tax assets of $1.5 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities that resulted in net cash outflows of $14.9 million. The changes in operating assets and liabilities consisted primarily of a $12.6 million increase in inventories due to management's plan to build inventory in response to higher revenue expectations, a $9.0 million increase in account receivable reflecting the impact of higher sales and the timing of collections and $1.5 million decrease in accounts payable due to timing of invoices and payments. The uses of cash were partially offset by $7.7 million increase in cash provided by all other assets and liabilities, mostly driven by the increase in inventory related accruals, accrued sales returns and accrued income taxes along with $1.1 million reduction in prepaid expenses, mostly due to lower vendor prepayments.
Net cash used in operating activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 of $15.6 million consisted primarily of net loss of $26.4 million, inventory excess and obsolescence expense of $6.2 million, share-based compensation expense of $2.6 million and adjustments for depreciation and amortization and other non-cash impacts of $3.3 million, an increase in deferred tax assets of $3.7 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities that resulted in net cash outflows of $5.0 million. The changes in operating assets and liabilities consisted primarily of $6.2 million higher prepaid expenses, mostly as a result of an increase in supplier prepayments and $3.6 million lower accounts payable due to decreased purchases and timing of payments partially offset by $5.1 million lower inventory as channel inventories are starting to decrease.
Cash flows from investing activities
Our investing activities for all periods presented consisted of capital expenditures for property, equipment and software and capitalized labor costs for software to be marketed for sale in support of the growth of our business.
Cash flows from financing activities
During the three-month period ended March 31, 2023, net cash used in financing activities of $0.4 million was primarily due to $0.7 million repayment of principal due under the term loan facility with Bank of America and $0.1 million for taxes paid from shares withheld in net settlement of taxes due on vesting of restricted shares issued to our employees.
During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities of $38.7 million was primarily due to $40.0 million drawn down on the revolver offset by $1.3 million repayment of principal due under the term loan facility with Bank of America.
28
Debt
As of March 31, 2024, we had $24.1 million outstanding on our term loan facility and $40.0 million outstanding on our revolving credit facility with Bank of America. The effective interest rate on the term credit facility at March 31, 2024 was 9.15% and the weighted-average interest rate on our revolving credit facility was 8.67%. The Company is required to make quarterly principal payments of $0.7 million under the term credit facility and quarterly interest payments under both the term loan facility and the revolving credit facility. Our term loan facility and revolving credit facility matures on November 17, 2026, at which time the outstanding principal will be due. Refer to Note 6 – Debt, to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I of this Form 10-Q for additional information.
Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the only material change to the contractual obligations and commercial commitments from what was disclosed in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 is the addition of $40.0 million in long-term debt related to the drawdown of funds against our revolving credit facility in the first quarter of 2024. The $40.0 million was drawn down in two draws, the first draw of $10.0 million in February 2024 and the second draw of $30.0 million in March 2024. As of March 31, 2024, the weighted average interest rate on the revolving credit facility is 8.67%. Interest is due and payable quarterly. The revolving credit facility matures on November 17, 2026, at which time the outstanding principal will be due. Based on the interest rate at the time of the draw and assuming no repayment of principal until maturity, this increases our obligations by $2.8 million for interest in 2024, $3.5 million for interest in 2025 and $40.0 million for principal and $3.1 million for interest in 2026.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
We do not engage in transactions that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as variable interest entities, structured finance, or special purpose entities, as part of our ongoing business. Accordingly, our operating results, financial condition and cash flows are not subject to off-balance sheet risks.
Significant Accounting Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expense and related disclosures. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these judgments and estimates under different assumptions or conditions and any such differences may be material. We believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management’s judgments and estimates.
During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, our share price experienced declines and in the month subsequent to quarter end, decreased to a historic low. As indicated in Note 5 of the condensed consolidated financial statements, we evaluated whether there were goodwill triggering events that occurred as of March 31, 2024, and determined there were not. The Company will continue to assess potential goodwill impairment triggering events, including continued impact of slower demand, higher channel inventory and sustained decreases in our share price. If triggering events occur, we will perform a goodwill impairment assessment that may indicate impairment in a future period. Please refer to Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed on March 15, 2024, for a more complete discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates.
29
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Excluding the impact of changes in interest rates and the uncertainty in the global financial markets, there have been no material changes to our market risk for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. We conduct business in all parts of the world and are thereby exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The U.S. dollar is the single largest currency in which our revenue contracts are denominated. Any decline in the value of local foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar results in our products and services being more expensive to a potential foreign customer. In those instances where our goods and services have already been sold, receivables may be more difficult to collect. Additionally, in jurisdictions where the revenue contracts are denominated in U.S. dollars and operating expenses are incurred in the local currency, any decline in the value of the U.S. dollar will have an unfavorable impact to operating margins. We have not entered into any foreign currency hedging transactions. We do not purchase or hold any derivative financial instruments for speculation or arbitrage.
We do not hold any cash in any investment accounts and all cash is deposited with financial institutions that management believes are of high credit quality. The Company's cash consists primarily of U.S. dollar denominated demand accounts.
We had $24.1 million outstanding on our term loan facility and $40.0 million outstanding on our revolving credit facility as of March 31, 2024 under our credit agreement with Bank of America. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk from fluctuations in the Term SOFR that is a component of the interest rate used to calculate interest expense on the both the term and revolving credit facilities. Interest accrues on the outstanding principal amount of the term loan facility and revolving credit facility at a rate equal to the selected rate per annum determined by reference to the 1-month, 3-month or 6-month Term SOFR rate as selected by the Company, plus a SOFR adjustment of 0.10%, plus an applicable margin of 3.25%. At March 31, 2024, the effective interest rate on the term loan was 9.15%. A hypothetical 100-basis point increase in interest rates would result in an additional $0.2 million in interest expense related to the term credit facility per year. At March 31, 2024, the weighted-average interest rate on the revolving credit facility was 8.67%. A hypothetical 100-basis point increase in interest rates would result in an additional $0.4 million in interest expense related to the revolving credit facility per year.
There have been no other material changes in our market risk since December 31, 2023.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act), as of March 31, 2024, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of previously reported material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which we describe in Part II, Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Material Weaknesses
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
As disclosed in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, management identified the following material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2023:
Management concluded that our control environment was ineffective in identifying changes in risk and designing internal controls that are responsive to risks. As a result, certain process-level controls related to the determination of our inventory excess and obsolescence reserve and recoverability of deferred tax assets were not designed effectively in that they were not designed to appropriately evaluate methodology and assumptions, operate with a sufficient level of precision, nor adequately address information utilized in the performance of the controls.
The control deficiencies resulted in material errors to our inventory excess and obsolescence reserve and deferred tax asset valuation allowance that have been corrected in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023. Furthermore, the control deficiencies described above created a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Therefore, we concluded that the deficiencies represent
30
material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2023.
Ongoing Remediation Efforts to Address the Previously Identified Material Weaknesses
Management, with oversight from the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors, is taking steps to remediate the control deficiencies which resulted in the material weaknesses described above by implementing changes to our internal control over financial reporting. Management is in the process of enhancing, and will continue to enhance, the risk assessment process and design and implementation of internal controls over financial reporting. The remediation measures to correct the previously identified material weaknesses include enhancing the design and implementation of existing controls and creating new controls as needed to address identified risks and providing additional training to personnel including the appropriate level of documentation to be maintained to support internal controls over financial reporting.
As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, management may determine to take additional measures to strengthen controls or to modify the remediation plan described above. When fully implemented and operational, we believe the controls we have designed or plan to design will remediate the control deficiency that has led to the material weaknesses that we have identified. The previously identified material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.
Changes in internal control
We are working towards implementing processes and procedures to address the material weaknesses noted above. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on effectiveness of controls and procedures
None.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
Third parties may from time to time assert legal claims against us. Our industry is characterized by vigorous protection and pursuit of intellectual property rights. A number of companies hold a large number of patents that may cover technology necessary to our products. We have in the past received and expect to continue to receive claims by third parties that we infringe their intellectual property rights. In the opinion of management, we believe we have established adequate accruals pursuant to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for any expected future liability with respect to pending lawsuits, claims and proceedings, where the nature and extent of any such liability can be reasonably estimated based on presently available information. However, there can be no assurance that the final resolution of any existing or future lawsuits, claims or proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial conditions, or cash flows.
For additional information, see Note 11 – Commitments and contingencies in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 3. Legal Proceedings in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
There have been no material changes to the risk factors as disclosed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 except as discussed below. Additional risk and uncertainties, including risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, could also have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
We risk being unable to meet our financial covenants under our credit facilities, which may result in doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We are subject to compliance with financial covenants under our credit facilities with Bank of America. If in the next twelve months we are unable to comply with applicable financial covenants, we could incur a non-payment event of default under the Amended Credit Agreement. Such a default would afford the lenders thereunder the right to declare the amounts outstanding thereunder immediately due and payable, and we may not be able to obtain a waiver of such a default or otherwise refinance such indebtedness. Should we be unable to obtain a waiver or otherwise refinance our indebtedness, we may be unable to continue as a going concern.
We are actively taking actions to improve our profitability and ensure future compliance with applicable financial covenants, including acceleration of collection of receivables, deferral of expenditures, cost reductions to align our cost structure with current revenue levels and sales of excess inventory. In addition, we continue to focus on operating efficiency and reducing discretionary spending. We believe these actions, together with our existing cash balances, provide us with the financial flexibility needed to meet our obligations as they come due. Any of these measures may have an adverse impact on our ability to execute our business plan, take advantage of future opportunities, fund research and development initiatives, or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated financial requirements. The ultimate success of any such actions in sustaining our ability to continue as a going concern cannot be assured.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
Not applicable.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information.
During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, none of our directors or officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934)
