Iteris Reports Record Fiscal 2023 Third Quarter Total Revenue of $40.7 Million, Up 27% Year Over Year, and Record Total Ending Backlog of $112.2 Million, up 22% Year Over Year

Achieved financial inflection point as alternative circuit boards and other supply chain management initiatives drive greater than 2,600 basis point sequential improvement in product gross margins.

Iteris, Inc. (NASDAQ: ITI), the global leader in smart mobility infrastructure management, today reported financial results for its fiscal third quarter 2023, ended December 31, 2022.

Fiscal 2023 Third Quarter Financial Summary

  • Total revenue increased 27.1% year over year to a record $40.7 million
  • Product revenue increased 44.0% year over year to $22.9 million
  • Service revenue increased 10.5% year over year to $17.8 million
  • GAAP net loss from continuing operations was $2.0 million, or $(0.05) per share, largely due to unusually high-cost inventory items associated with recent global supply chain constraints bleeding through the income statement, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $2.4 million, or $(0.06) per share, in the same quarter a year ago
  • Adjusted EBITDA loss in the third quarter was approximately $0.4 million, or (1.0)% of total revenues, largely for the same reasons, compared to adjusted EBITDA profit of $0.1 million, or 0.3% of total revenues, in the same quarter a year ago
  • Net operating cash flow from operations was $2.8 million for the quarter
  • Total ending backlog increased 22% year over year to a record $112.2 million

Management Commentary:

“Due to the continued progress of our supply chain management program, we achieved a financial inflection point in our fiscal 2023 third quarter,” said Joe Bergera, president and CEO of Iteris. “As anticipated, the introduction of our alternative circuit boards and the other benefits of our supply chain management program began to normalize our sensors line of business. More specifically, in the fiscal third quarter, we realized a step-change increase in quarterly product revenue and a greater than 2,600 basis point sequential improvement in product gross margins, demonstrating that we have started to overcome the supply chain issues that impacted our fiscal first half performance.

“Despite concerns about a slowdown in the broader economy, our total ending backlog increased 22% year over year to a record $112.2 million, and customer demand in our end-markets remains favorable. Therefore, we anticipate continued above market revenue growth through our fiscal year end. Likewise, we expect the compounding benefits of our supply chain management program to drive further reductions in the costs of goods sold for our Vantage sensors, returning product gross margins to our historical range by the fiscal year end. Looking ahead, these structural improvements position Iteris for sustained profitable growth moving forward.”

Fiscal 2023 Fourth Quarter and Full Year Outlook

  • Fourth quarter revenue is expected to be in the range of $39.4 million to $41.4 million, representing growth of 18.0% at the midpoint of the guidance range
  • Fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $3.5 million to $4.0 million, or 8.7% to 10.0% of revenue at the midpoint
  • Fourth quarter net cashflow is expected to be in the range of $1.5 million to $3.5 million for a fiscal year ending cash balance of $12.0 million to $14.0 million, up from $8.0 million at the end of the second quarter
  • Full year fiscal 2023 revenue is expected to be in the range of $152 million to $155 million, representing growth of 15.0% year over year at the mid-point of the guidance range
  • Full year adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of -2.0% to -3.0% of full year fiscal 2023 revenue, reflecting the global supply chain constraints that impacted us primarily in the fiscal first half of the year

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation

In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, the company has included the following non-GAAP financial measure in this release: Adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring charges, project loss reserves, executive severance and transition costs, and acquisition earnout payments (“Adjusted EBITDA”).

When viewed with our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP and accompanying reconciliations, we believe Adjusted EBITDA provides additional useful information to clarify and enhance the understanding of the factors and trends affecting our past performance and future prospects. We define this measure, explain how it is calculated and provide reconciliations of this measure to the most comparable GAAP measure in the table below. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. This is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities as measures of our liquidity. The presentation of this measure should not be interpreted to mean that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.

We use the Adjusted EBITDA non-GAAP operating performance measure internally as a complementary financial measure to evaluate the performance and trends of our businesses. We present Adjusted EBITDA and the related financial ratios, as applicable, because we believe that measures such as these provide useful information with respect to our ability to meet our operating commitments.

Adjusted EBITDA and the related financial ratios have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include:

  • They do not reflect our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
  • They do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
  • Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
  • They are not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows;
  • They do not reflect the impact on earnings of charges resulting from matters unrelated to our ongoing operations; and
  • Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently from us, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA and the related financial ratios should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as a measure of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations. You should compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental information. See our Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements contained in this Press Release. However, in spite of the above limitations, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA and the related financial ratios are useful to an investor in evaluating our results of operations because these measures:

  • Are widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items excluded from the calculation of such terms, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired, among other factors;
  • Help investors to evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the effect of our capital structure from our operating performance; and
  • Are used by our management team for various other purposes in presentations to our Board of Directors as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting.

The following financial items have been added back to or subtracted from our net income when calculating Adjusted EBITDA:

  • Income tax. This amount may be useful to investors because it represents the taxes that might be payable for the period and the change in deferred taxes during the period, and therefore could reduce cash flow available for use in our business.
  • Depreciation. Iteris excludes depreciation expense primarily because it is a non-cash expense. These amounts may be useful to investors because it generally represents the wear and tear on our property and equipment used in our operations.
  • Amortization. Iteris incurs amortization of intangible assets in connection with acquisitions. Iteris also incurs amortization related to capitalized software development costs. Iteris excludes these items because it does not believe that these expenses are reflective of ongoing operating results in the period incurred. These amounts may be useful to investors because it represents the estimated attrition of our acquired customer base and the diminishing value of product rights.
  • Interest expense. Iteris excludes interest expense because it does not believe this item is reflective of ongoing business and operating results. This amount may be useful to investors for determining current cash flow. This amount may be useful to investors for determining current cash flow. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022, interest expense includes amortization of the remaining capitalized deferred financing costs due to the termination of the Credit Agreement.
  • Stock-based compensation. These expenses consist primarily of expenses from employee and director equity based compensation plans. Iteris excludes stock-based compensation primarily because they are non-cash expenses and Iteris believes that it is useful to investors to understand the impact of stock-based compensation to its results of operations and current cash flow.
  • Restructuring charges. These expenses consist primarily of employee separation expenses, facility termination costs, and other expenses associated with Company restructuring activities. Iteris excludes these expenses as it does not believe that these expenses are reflective of ongoing operating results in the period incurred. These amounts may be useful to our investors in evaluating our core operating performance.
  • Project loss reserves. These expenses consist primarily of expenses incurred to complete a software development contract that will not be recoverable and largely related to previously incurred and capitalized costs for non-recurring engineering activity. Iteris excludes these expenses as it does not believe that these expenses are reflective of ongoing operating results in the period incurred. These amounts may be useful to our investors in evaluating our core operating performance.
  • Executive severance and transition costs. Iteris excludes executive severance and transition costs because it does not believe that these expenses are reflective of ongoing operating results in the period incurred. These amounts may be useful to our investors in evaluating our core operating performance.
  • Acquisition earnout payments. These expenses are a result of the TrafficCast International, Inc. acquisition in December, 2020 and are the final earnout payments per the acquisition agreement. Iteris excluded these expenses as it does not believe that these expenses are reflective of ongoing operating results in the period incurred. These amounts may be useful to our investors in evaluating our core operating performance.
