KORE Reports Third Quarter 2023 Results:

Announces Successful Refinancing and Preferred Stock

Issuance Transactions

ATLANTA – November 9, 2023 – KORE Group Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: KORE, KORE.WS) (“KORE” or the “Company”), the global pure-play Internet of Things (“IoT”) hyperscaler, and provider of IoT Connectivity, Solutions and Analytics, today reported financial and operational results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

KORE: Company Highlights

 

•

KORE announced a definitive agreement to refinance its approximately $300 million term loan, resulting in substantially lower first lien leverage. The new $185 million term loan from Whitehorse Capital will carry an interest rate of SOFR plus 650 basis points and represents a reduction in first lien leverage to 3.2x trailing twelve-month (TTM) Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP metric1, down from 5.2x. The credit agreement for the new term loan allows for an interest rate reduction of 25 basis points for each 0.5x improvement in the first lien leverage ratio up to a maximum reduction of 50 basis points. Importantly, after repaying our existing term loan, the Company will not have any material debt maturities until 2028. Whitehorse Capital will also make available to the Company a $25 million revolving credit facility, which will be undrawn at closing.

 

•

As part of the refinancing, the Company also signed a definitive agreement for a $150 million strategic investment from an affiliate of Searchlight Capital Partners, two designees of which will be joining the Company’s Board of Directors upon closing of the investment, which is expected to occur on or before December 1, 2023, subject to the satisfaction of closing conditions. This investment, in the form of a preferred stock issuance having a ten-year maturity and a 13% per annum dividend rate with a payment-in-kind (PIK) feature, will allow for greater cash flow flexibility. When combined with proceeds from the new term loan, this will add approximately $15 million of cash to the balance sheet, net of transaction expenses. This strategic investment will reduce the Company’s total leverage from 7.3x TTM Adjusted EBITDA to 5.3x. Upon the closing of these two transactions, the company’s total debt will be comprised of a $185 million term loan and $120 million in 5.5% fixed interest convertible notes. The Company also issued ten-year penny warrants to purchase 11.8 million shares of common stock to an affiliate of Searchlight Capital Partners as part of the transaction.

 

•

KORE returned to year-over-year growth in the third quarter of 2023, with total revenue of $68.6 million versus $66.1 million in the third quarter of 2022, driven by strong growth in our high margin IoT Connectivity business, which increased 27%. On an organic basis, IoT Connectivity revenue grew in the high single digits, and excluding the 2G/3G sunset forced churn of non-core customers at the end of 2022, grew in the mid-teens.

•

Third quarter estimated Total Contract Value (TCV) in new business bookings was $27 million. KORE’s sales funnel, which the Company defines as opportunities for new business the KORE sales team is actively pursuing, now includes almost 1,700 opportunities with an estimated potential TCV of over $740 million, an approximately 12% sequential increase from second quarter 2023’s estimated potential TCV of $660 million.

 

•

KORE added over 300,000 connections in the third quarter, bringing Total Connections to almost 18.9 million as of September 30, 2023. This is a significant step up in connections from approximately 15.3 million connections on September 30, 2022.

“I am delighted to announce a successful refinancing of our senior debt, which upon closing in the next couple of weeks, will reduce our overall debt level by approximately $120 million. Our improved balance sheet results in greater cash efficiency to service debt and extends our debt maturity by five years, giving the Company plenty of time to delever, especially in light of our Adjusted EBITDA growth prospects. We are particularly pleased by a significant reduction in required annual cash interest payments from approximately $42 million in 2023 to approximately $28 million in 2024. With this important refinancing behind us, we are singularly refocused on the tremendous opportunity ahead of us through the Decade of IoT. Our best-in-class eSIM-powered IoT connectivity value proposition represents an exciting opportunity for profitable growth,” said Romil Bahl, President and CEO of KORE.

Financial Performance for Third Quarter 2023, Compared to the Same Period of 2022:

 

•

Total revenue increased by 4% to $68.6 million, compared to $66.1 million in the third quarter of 2022.

 

•

IoT Connectivity revenue of $55.2 million increased by 27%, compared to $43.4 million in the third quarter of 2022. On an organic basis, revenue growth was in the high single-digits and in the mid-teens, excluding the forced churn of non-core customers due to the 2G/3G sunsets at the end of 2022.

 

•

IoT Solutions revenue declined by 41% to $13.4 million, compared to $22.7 million one year ago, as this segment was impacted by customer order deferrals, which does not reflect a change in the long-term outlook of this segment.

 

•

Net Loss increased to $95.4 million, or $1.10 per share, compared to $14.3 million, or $0.19 per share, one year ago. Excluding the $78.3 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge related to the decline in the Company’s share price, Net Loss in the third quarter of 2023 would have been $17.1 million, or $0.20 per share. The year-over-year increase in Net Loss was primarily due to increased interest expense owing to the rise in interest rates.

 

•

Adjusted EBITDA declined 6% year-over-year to $14.2 million from $15.1 million in the third quarter of 2022. The decline was mainly due to increased operating expenses from the inclusion of the acquired Twilio IoT business

Financial Performance for Nine Months Ending September 30, 2023, Compared to the Same Period of 2022:

 

•

Total revenue decreased by 1% to $204.1 million, compared to $206.0 million.

 

•

IoT Connectivity revenue increased 10% to $147.0 million, compared to $133.5 million.

 

•

IoT Solutions revenue decreased by 21% to $57.1 million, compared to $72.5 million. The revenue decline in the nine-month period was primarily due to the large LTE transition project at our largest customer that was completed in the second quarter of 2022.

 

•

Net Loss increased to $133.4 million, or $1.65 per share, compared to $36.6 million, or $0.49 per share. Excluding the $78.3 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge related to the decline in the Company’s share price, Net Loss for the nine months would have been $55.1 million, or $0.68 per share. The increase in Net Loss was primarily due to the increase in interest expense and increased amortization.

 

•

Adjusted EBITDA declined by 12% to $41.7 million, compared to $47.2 million. The decline was due to increases in headcount related costs, including those from the acquired Twilio IoT business.

•

KORE had several notable new business wins in the third quarter, including:

 

•

Increasing Share of Wallet: A Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) customer selected KORE as the sole provider of eSIM connectivity across the US, UK, and Europe. The customer will be transferring lines from a competitor. This engagement has a TCV of $4.4 million, and we see potential additional opportunities with this customer.

 

•

Cross-Selling IoT Solutions with the KORE One-Stop-Shop: KORE won a $6.2 million TCV contract with a national retail chain to migrate from LTE to 5G. KORE is providing Full Lifecycle Managed Services, including connectivity, installation services, and ongoing management of the customer’s devices.

 

•

Upsell / Land-and-Expand: An existing rent-to-own store franchiser customer awarded KORE a $2.5 million TCV contract to provide connectivity across multiple carriers based on the quality of service they received on their initial engagement with KORE. KORE is also working on upgrading lines from LTE to 5G.

Revising 2023 Financial Outlook

For the twelve months ending December 31, 2023, the Company now expects the following:

 

•

Revenue in the range of $280 million to $290 million; and

 

•

Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $60 million to $62 million, and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 21.4% at the midpoint of revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance.

This compares to prior guidance of revenue in the range of $300 million to $310 million and Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $60 million to $62 million.

Bahl concluded, “We have reduced revenue guidance to reflect several customers’ order deferrals in IoT Solutions. Despite the macroeconomic environment causing this pushout of IoT Solutions revenue, we are pleased with how the year has progressed, especially in our core IoT Connectivity business, which experienced strong organic growth in the third quarter and throughout the year. We have successfully integrated the Twilio IoT team and plan to launch our new combined next-generation eSIM product in 2024. We have streamlined operating costs to align with revenue shifts and have increased gross margins of the acquired Twilio IoT connections. Despite reduced revenue expectations due to delayed ordering primarily from IoT Solutions customers, the actions we have taken enable us to maintain our 2023 Adjusted EBITDA guidance and put us in a strong position entering 2024. As we look forward, we are bullish about the Company’s ability to grow revenues while also optimizing operating expenses to add approximately $10 million of savings in 2024.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe the following non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating our operational performance. We use the following non-GAAP financial information to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors in assessing our operating performance.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

“EBITDA” is defined as net income (loss) before other non-operating expense or income, income tax expense or benefit, and depreciation and amortization. “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as EBITDA adjusted for unusual and other significant items that management views as distorting the operating results from period to period. Such adjustments may include stock-based compensation, integration and acquisition-related charges, tangible and intangible asset impairment charges, certain contingent liability reversals, transformation, and foreign currency transaction gains and losses. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are intended as supplemental measures of our performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. We believe that the use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with those of comparable companies, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, you should be aware that when evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA we may incur future expenses similar to those excluded when calculating these measures. In addition, our presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies, because all companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same fashion.

Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA on a supplemental basis. You should review the reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

We have not provided the forward-looking GAAP equivalents for the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin or a GAAP reconciliation as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items including but not limited to stock-based compensation expense, foreign currency loss or gain and acquisition and integration-related expenses. Accordingly, a reconciliation of these non-GAAP guidance metrics to their corresponding GAAP equivalents is not available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to note that material changes to reconciling items could have a significant effect on future GAAP results and, as such, we also believe that any reconciliations provided would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors.

Key Metrics

KORE reviews a number of metrics to measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, prepare financial projections, and make strategic decisions. The calculation of the key metrics and other measures discussed below may differ from other similarly titled metrics used by other companies, securities analysts, or investors.

Number of Customer Connections

Total Customer Connections or “Total Connections” constitutes the total of all KORE Connectivity services connections, including both CaaS and CEaaS connections, but excluding certain connections where mobile carriers license KORE’s subscription management platform from KORE. Total Connections include the contribution of eSIMs and is the principal measure used by management to assess the performance of the business on a periodic basis.

DBNER

DBNER (Dollar Based Net Expansion Rate) tracks the combined effect of cross-sales of IoT Solutions to KORE’s existing customers, its customer retention and the growth of its existing business. KORE calculates DBNER by dividing the revenue for a given period (“given period”) from existing go-forward customers by the revenue from the same customers for the same period measured one year prior (“base period”). The revenue included in the current period excludes revenue from (i) customers that are non go-forward customers, meaning customers that have either communicated to KORE before the last day of the current period their intention not to provide future business to KORE or customers that KORE has determined are transitioning away from KORE based on a sustained multi-year time period of declines in revenue and (ii) new customers that started generating revenue after the end of the base period. For example, to calculate our DBNER for the trailing 12 months ended September 30, 2023, we divide (i) revenue, for the trailing 12 months ended September 30, 2023, from go-forward customers that started generating revenue on or before September 30, 2022, by (ii) revenue, for the trailing 12 months ended September 30, 2022, from the same cohort of customers. For the purposes of calculating DBNER, if KORE acquires a company during the given period or the base period, then the revenue of a customer before the acquisition but during either the given period or the base period is included in the calculation. Further, it is often difficult to ascertain which customers should be deemed not to be go-forward customers for purposes of calculating DBNER. Customers are not required to give notice of their intention to transition off of the KORE platform, and a customer’s exit from the KORE platform can take months or longer, and total connections of any particular customer can at any time increase or decrease for any number of reasons, including pricing, customer satisfaction or product fit – accordingly, a decrease in total connections may not indicate that a customer is intending to exit the KORE platform, particularly if that decrease is not sustained over a period of several quarters. DBNER would be lower if it were calculated using revenue from non go-forward customers.

DBNER for the twelve-month periods ending September 30, 2023, and September 30, 2022, excludes connections from non-go-forward customers, the vast majority of which are connections from Non-Core Customers. KORE defines “Non-Core Customers” to be customers that management has judged to be lost as a result of the integration of Raco Wireless, Wyless, and other acquisitions completed in the 2014-2017 period, but which continue to have some connections (and account for some revenue) each year with KORE. Non-Core Customers are a subset of non-go-forward customers. As of January 1, 2024, these Non-Core Customers will neither have connections with nor generate revenue for KORE.

DBNER is used by management as a measure of growth at KORE’s existing customers (i.e., “same store” growth). It is not intended to capture the effect of either new customer wins or the declines from non go-forward customers on KORE’s total revenue growth. This is because DBNER excludes new customers which started generating revenue after the base period, and also excludes any customers which are non go-forward customers on the last day of the current period. Revenue increases from new customer wins, and a decline in revenue from non go-forward customers are also important factors in assessing KORE’s revenue growth, but these factors are independent of DBNER.

Total Contract Value (TCV)

Total Contract Value (TCV) represents KORE’s estimated value of a revenue opportunity. TCV for an IoT Connectivity opportunity is calculated by multiplying by forty the estimated revenue expected to be generated during the twelfth month of production. TCV for an IoT Solutions opportunity is either the actual total expected revenue opportunity, or if it is a longer-term “programmatically recurring revenue” program, calculated for the first 36 months of the delivery period.
