Bsquare Reports Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results
BELLEVUE, Wash., Nov. 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Bsquare Corporation (NASDAQ: BSQR) today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2019.
"In May, we announced a series of initiatives called 'One Bsquare' that included a renewed focus on operating excellence. Our results for Q3 2019 suggest that this focus is starting to have an impact on our business," said Bsquare President and CEO Ralph C. Derrickson.
"Our rebuilding efforts continued in the third quarter. We added two more experienced entrepreneurs to the leadership team, with Chris Wheaton joining as CFO and Steven Gottlieb joining as VP of Marketing. We partnered with Synnex and Arrow, allowing us to offer Azure CSP product and services, expanded our collaboration with Microsoft to include their Sphere initiative, and launched the marketing of our B2IQ edge-to-cloud suite with our new website. While there is a lot of work yet to be done, there is reason to believe that our recovery is no longer a matter of 'if' but a matter of 'when'," concluded Mr. Derrickson.
In the third quarter, Bsquare's sales and marketing efforts re-established the clear connection between Bsquare's OS distribution business and its IoT business. As customers seek to use IoT, in any form, to transform their business, they often first require a device that leverages an embedded operating system. Bsquare's deep experience in these OS deployments, combined with expertise in IoT software components, helps customers then connect and operate their devices in a cloud-aware world. Bsquare anticipates this connection between embedded OS and IoT to be an increasingly important component of its efforts in the fourth quarter and throughout 2020.
Third Quarter 2019 Results
Revenue for Q3 2019 was at the high end of guidance and margins were in-line with guidance. For the second sequential quarter, Bsquare's operating expenses, excluding restructuring costs, were at the lowest level since Q4 2016.
Effective in the third quarter of 2019, Bsquare made the following changes to our operating segments for financial reporting purposes:
- Third-Party Software operating segment has been renamed to Partner Solutions;
- Professional Engineering Service operating segment has been renamed to Edge to Cloud, consistent with the suite of software and services we offer; and
- Bsquare will no longer present separate information for the Proprietary Software operating segment. The company has combined this segment with results for the Edge to Cloud segment, with comparable prior period results restated to conform to current period presentation.
Third Quarter 2019 Financial Highlights
- Revenue was $14.6 million, up by $0.4 million from $14.2 million in the second quarter of 2019, primarily due to higher sales of Microsoft Windows and Mobile operating systems, and down 12.3% compared to the third quarter of 2018.
- GAAP net loss for the current quarter was $1.1 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $2.1 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2018 and net loss of $3.9 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2019.
- Adjusted EBITDAS (1) was negative $0.5 million, compared to negative $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2018 and negative $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2019.
- Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments on September 30, 2019 totaled $11.6 million, a decrease of approximately $0.9 million from June 30, 2019, and a decrease of $5.3 million from December 31, 2018.

Financial Commentary on Third Quarter 2019 Results (Compared to Third Quarter 2018)
- Partner Solutions revenue decreased for the quarterly period, driven by lower sales of Microsoft operating systems in North America and Europe.
- Edge to Cloud revenue decreased when compared to the prior year quarterly period, primarily from sale of DataVTM software in the prior period, partially offset by increased professional service revenue from completion of a customer project in the current quarter.
- Operating expenses, excluding the charge for restructuring costs of $0.3 million, decreased when compared to the third quarter of 2018 due to lower salary, benefit and marketing costs from spending reductions initiated in second half of 2018 and first half of 2019.
- Excluding the charge for restructuring costs of $0.3 million, net loss for the current quarter decreased by $1.2 million, or $(0.09) per diluted share, as adjusted, vs. the third quarter of 2018.
Fourth Quarter 2019 Outlook
Bsquare's business rebuilding efforts will continue in the fourth quarter. The company expects revenue for the fourth quarter of 2019 will be in range of $12.5 million to $14.5 million; and blended gross margin in the 14% to 16% range.

(1) | Adjusted EBITDAS is a non-GAAP financial measure. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position or cash flow that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAS is defined as income (loss) from operations before depreciation expense on fixed assets and amortization expense (including impairment) on intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring costs, and goodwill impairment. Adjusted EBITDAS should not be construed as a substitute for net income (loss) or net cash provided (used) by operating activities (all as determined in accordance with GAAP) for the purpose of analyzing our operating performance, financial position and cash flows, as Adjusted EBITDAS is not defined by GAAP. However, BSQUARE regards Adjusted EBITDAS as a complement to net income and other GAAP financial performance measures, including an indirect measure of operating cash flow. |
