Description of Business

 

Sonim Technologies, Inc. was incorporated in the state of Delaware on August 5, 1999, and is headquartered in San Diego, California. The Company specializes in rugged and durable mobile devices, catering to users who require extra resilience in their professional and personal lives. Initially focusing on handsets and accessories for the enterprise, first responder, and government sectors, Sonim has broadened its offerings to include connected devices for wireless internet access like mobile hotspots.

 

In 2023, the Company announced an expanded portfolio which includes next-generation ultra-rugged 5G feature phones, a next-generation rugged smartphone, and a connected solutions portfolio of wireless internet solutions, including wireless modems, mobile hotspots and fixed wireless access routers. As of the filing date of this report, Sonim has committed to fourteen carrier awards for the new portfolio of 4G and 5G products: six awards for three models of mobile hotspots and eight awards for two new phones—a next-generation rugged smartphone and a next-generation rugged feature phone. Sonim launched a mobile hotspot at the end of the second quarter of 2024, and the remaining products are expected to launch with tier-one carriers in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia beginning in the second half of 2024.

 

A significant revenue driver in 2023 was a tablet developed under Sonim’s original design manufacturer (“ODM”) model, emphasizing high-volume and low-margin production tailored to a specific customer’s needs. Although the tablet sales concluded in the fourth quarter of 2023 due to its life cycle end, the ODM model was also applied late in the fourth quarter of 2023 for a range of low-priced smartphones with sales ending in the first quarter of 2024. The ODM model does not represent the Company’s core business strategy.

 

Reverse Stock Split

Reverse Stock Split

 

On July 17, 2024, the Company effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on a post-split basis on July 18, 2024. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, each share of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to July 17, 2024, was automatically converted into one-tenth (1/10) of a share of common stock. The Reverse Stock Split affected all common stockholders uniformly and did not alter any stockholder’s percentage interest in the Company’s equity, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split would result in a stockholder owning a fractional share. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive a fractional share instead were entitled to receive one whole share in lieu of such fractional share.

 

The Reverse Stock Split did not change the par value of the common stock or the authorized number of shares of common stock. The Reverse Stock Split reduced the total number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock from 47,083,336 to 4,827,092 as of June 30, 2024. All outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants entitling their holders to purchase or obtain or convert into shares of our common stock were adjusted, as required by the terms of these securities.

 

The Company’s stockholders’ equity, in the aggregate, remained unchanged following the Reverse Stock Split. Net income (loss) per share increased because there were fewer shares of common stock outstanding. There were no other accounting consequences, including changes to the amount of stock-based compensation expense to be recognized in any period, that arose as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.

 

All common share and per-share amounts in this Form 10-Q have been retroactively restated to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split.

 

 

Liquidity and Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

Liquidity and Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements account for the continuation of its business as a going concern. The Company is subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with the development and release of new products. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity as of June 30, 2024, consist of existing cash and cash equivalents totaling $9,600. The Company believes that it can meet its obligations with this cash over the next twelve months following the filing date of this report.

 

Basis of presentation and preparation

Basis of presentation and preparation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sonim Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively “Sonim” or the “Company”). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for fair financial statement presentation. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Certain prior period amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

As discussed above, all per share amounts and common shares amounts have been adjusted on a retroactive basis to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split. Proportionate adjustments were made to the per share exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable under all outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants. In addition, proportionate adjustments have been made to the number of shares of common stock reserved for the Company’s equity incentive awards.

New accounting pronouncements

New accounting pronouncements

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s consolidated financial statements with another public company, which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period, difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
