Company Reports GAAP Net Loss of $0.02 Per Share; 5th Consecutive Quarter of Non-GAAP Profitability with Non-GAAP Net Income of $0.02 Per Share

Irvine, Calif., October 30, 2014 – Lantronix, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: LTRX) a leading global provider of smart IoT (Internet of Things) solutions, today reported results for its fiscal 2015 first quarter ended September 30, 2014.

Financial Highlights for the First Quarter of Fiscal 2015:

“We are very pleased to achieve non-GAAP profitability for the fifth consecutive quarter,” said Kurt Busch, Lantronix president and CEO. “During the first quarter, we recorded both sequential and year-over-year revenue growth, due primarily to growth from new product sales that can largely be attributed to our product development philosophy of pursuing collaborative engagements with Tier One lead customers.”

Busch continued: “As we continue to focus our efforts on the core elements of our strategic plan – innovative and disciplined product development, expansion of our sales efforts worldwide, and strong financial and operational discipline, we expect to achieve long-term profitable growth and value for our shareholders.”

Operational and Product Highlights for the First Quarter of Fiscal 2015:

  • In July 2014, the Company announced the formation of a technology and marketing alliance with Server Technology, a leading producer of high-quality rack mount power distribution units and power monitoring solutions.
  • In August 2014, the Company launched a high performance, programmable, Ethernet-based system-on-module (SOM), the PremierWave® SE 1000. The new SOM enables rapid development and deployment of industrial IoT applications with enterprise-grade security and device cloud connectivity.

Featuring a groundbreaking design that allows for deployment customization and scalability, the SLC 8000 is designed to help IT professionals reduce deployment and management costs by providing secure, centralized out-of-band management for most IT equipment.

Financial Results for the First Quarter of Fiscal Year 2015

Net revenue was $11.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2015, an increase of $653,000, compared to $10.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and an increase of $434,000 compared to $11.1 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Lantronix believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial information, when presented in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures, provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company has provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Management believes that non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share are important measures of the Company’s business. Management uses the aforementioned non-GAAP measures to monitor and evaluate ongoing operating results and trends to gain an understanding of our comparative operating performance.

Non-GAAP net income (loss) consists of net income (loss) excluding (i) non-GAAP adjustments to operating expenses, (ii) interest income (expense), (iii) other income (expense), and (iv) income tax provision (benefit).

Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income (loss) by non-GAAP weighted-average shares outstanding (diluted). For purposes of calculating non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, the calculation of GAAP weighted-average shares outstanding (diluted) is adjusted to exclude share-based compensation, which for GAAP purposes is treated as proceeds assumed to be used to repurchase shares under the GAAP treasury stock method.
