Transformation Effort Underway

SAN JOSE, Calif., May 01, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NETGEAR, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTGR), a global networking company that delivers innovative networking and Internet connected products to consumers and businesses, today reported preliminary financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

• First quarter 2024 net revenue of $164.6 million, a decrease of 9.0% from the comparable prior-year quarter.

• First quarter 2024 GAAP operating loss of $21.6 million, or (13.2)% of net revenue, as compared to operating loss of $12.0 million, or (6.6)% of net revenue, in the comparable prior-year quarter.

  • First quarter 2024 non-GAAP operating loss of $16.0 million, or (9.7)% of net revenue, as compared to non-GAAP operating loss of $7.1 million, or (3.9)% of net revenue, in the comparable prior-year quarter.

• First quarter 2024 GAAP net loss per diluted share of $0.63, as compared to net loss per diluted share of $0.33 in the comparable prior-year quarter.

  • First quarter 2024 non-GAAP net loss per diluted share of $0.28, as compared to non-GAAP net loss per diluted share of $0.19 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.

CJ Prober, Chief Executive Officer of NETGEAR, commented, "I am pleased that we were able to deliver revenue within our guidance range in the first quarter. However, the challenging macroeconomic environment coupled with continued high inflation and interest rates are pressuring our channel partners to drive inventory to historical lows across both our consumer and B2B businesses. While we have been working to bring down channel inventories, this higher level of destocking, combined with a mix shift from our premium consumer products to our service provider products and a slightly more promotional retail market, unfavorably impacted our profitability in the first quarter."

"As we saw channel destocking come in higher than expected in Q1, we developed a plan to expedite the remaining destocking in Q2. While this creates a near-term challenge in terms of expected financial results for Q2, it is the right action for the long-term health of the business and clears the way for a stronger second half of the year. Going forward, we will work to closely align sell through with our revenue, which will allow us to become a more predictable and profitable company in subsequent quarters. We will also more aggressively lower our own inventory through the rest of the year to reduce our working capital and generate cash."

Mr. Prober continued, "After my first 90 days as CEO of NETGEAR, which included an expansive global tour meeting dozens of customers, partners and NETGEAR teams, I am sincerely excited about our growth opportunities and plans for returning to profitability. We remain fully committed to creating long-term value for our shareholders and these decisive near-term strategy adjustments enable this. We expect to emerge from Q2 with a solid foundation as we formalize our long-term strategy and capital allocation priorities throughout the rest of 2024."

Bryan Murray, Chief Financial Officer of NETGEAR, added, "We continued to make progress in reducing our own inventory levels, which were down $37.6 million in the first quarter, and we continue to drive towards our desired level of three months of supply. Our cash and short-term investments increased $5.8 million sequentially and we generated 88.4% greater cash from operations compared to the first quarter of 2023 while also repurchasing approximately 783,000 shares of NETGEAR common stock."

Business Outlook

Mr. Murray continued, "We expect to accelerate our way through NFB and CHP destocking activities within the second quarter. We expect this effort to represent a headwind of between $25 million to $30 million to our Q2 topline, which is reflected in our guidance. We believe taking this immediate action, as compared to spreading it over multiple future quarters, will allow us to align our revenue with our sell through and ultimately manage a more efficient channel in future quarters. Revenue from the service provider channel is expected to be approximately $15 million in the second quarter as our partners await our next generation 5G mobile hotspots expected to launch in the second half of the year. Accordingly, we expect second quarter net revenue to be in the range of $125 million to $140 million. As we continue to make meaningful progress in reducing our own inventory levels, we will be consuming higher cost inventory. We expect we will be back to our historically normal inventory costs after we reach our target inventory levels of three months. We are also taking more aggressive action to consume some of our slower moving products in an accelerated fashion which will put pressure on our Q2 margins. Accordingly, we expect our second quarter GAAP operating margin to be in the range of (30.9)% to (27.9)%, and non-GAAP operating margin to be in the range of (25.0)% to (22.0)%. Our GAAP tax expense is expected to be in the range of $1.0 million to $2.0 million, and our non-GAAP tax benefit is expected to be in the range of $7.0 million to $8.0 million for the second quarter of 2024."

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

		June 30, 2024
(In millions, except for percentage data)		Operating Margin Rate		Tax Expense (Benefit)

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 income (loss), non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP other income (expenses), net, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share. These supplemental measures exclude adjustments for amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, 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: 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 income (loss). We believe providing financial information with and without the income tax effects relating to our non-GAAP financial measures, as well as adjustments for valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, provides our management and users of the financial statements with better clarity regarding both current period performance and the on-going performance of our business. Non-GAAP income tax expense (benefit) is computed on a current and deferred basis with non-GAAP income (loss) consistent with use of non-GAAP income (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, as well as adjustments for valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. The tax valuation allowance is a non-cash adjustment primarily reflecting our expectations of, and assumptions as to, future operating results and applicable tax laws, that are not directly attributable to the current quarter’s operating performance. 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.
