BOCA RATON, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Airspan Networks Holdings Inc. (NYSE American: MIMO), which provides ground-breaking, disruptive software and hardware for 5G networks, and a pioneer in end-to-end Open RAN solutions, today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

 

Third Quarter Financial Highlights

 

On August 11, 2023 Airspan Networks Holdings Inc. completed the previously announced sale of Mimosa Networks Inc to Radisys Corporation. The transaction resulted in a gain on the sale of $28.6 million. The proceeds from the sale provided approximately $10.5 million of cash to the Company and also reduced the Company’s indebtedness by approximately $40.0 million.

 

Revenue of $14.3 million compared to $32.1 million sequentially from second quarter 2023, and from $41.1 million year-over-year from third quarter 2022.

 

Gross margin of 36.7% compared to 21.0% in the second quarter 2023 and 39.8% in third quarter 2022. Excluding an inventory impairment charge of $7.2 million in second quarter 2023, the adjusted gross margin for the second quarter 2023 was 43.4% (non-GAAP measure).

 

Total operating expenses of $16.1 million compared to $27.5 million in second quarter 2023, and $33.1 million for third quarter 2022. Total operating expenses for the second quarter 2023, included a $3.0 million restructuring provision, primarily related to headcount reductions.

 

Net income of $9.9 million, compared to a net loss of $33.6 million in second quarter 2023, and a net loss of $23.3 million for third quarter 2022. For the third quarter 2023, net income includes a $28.6 million gain on sale of the Company’s Mimosa subsidiary. For the second quarter 2023, excluding the inventory impairment charge of $7.2 million and the restructuring provision of $3.0 million, the adjusted net loss would have been $23.4 million (non-GAAP measure).

 

 

 

 

Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP measure) was a loss of $7.9 million compared to a loss of $15.2 million in second quarter 2023 and a loss of $10.0 million in third quarter 2022. For the second quarter 2023, excluding the inventory impairment of $7.2 million, the adjusted EBITDA would have been a loss of $8.0 million.
