Inpixon Refocuses on its Core Business of Tracking and Analyzing Wireless Devices Indoors

Inpixon (NASDAQ: INPX) is a leader in Indoor Positioning Analytics (IPA). Inpixon IPA Sensors are designed to find all accessible cellular, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth devices anonymously. Paired with a high-performance data analytics platform, this technology delivers visibility, security, and business intelligence on any commercial or government location worldwide.

 

On Aug 9th, 2018, the company reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018 and provided an update on corporate developments.

 

As per management, the company continues to strengthen its liquidity and overall financial flexibility by significantly reducing its liabilities and increasing stockholders’ equity, allowing it to be able to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s stockholders’ equity requirement.

 

From an operational perspective, INPX continues to work on repairing and rebuilding its vendor and supplier relationships and anticipate that the value-added reseller (VAR) business will have improved results during the third and fourth quarters of 2018, following the federal government’s busy season in September and October. In fact, INPX’ IPA business did see an increase in revenue as compared to prior quarters for the same period, and the company expects this trend to continue in the second half of the year.

 

During the second quarter, the company also announced plans to spin-off its VAR business and initiated steps in connection with this transaction by filing a Form 10 Registration Statement and announcing the execution of a Separation & Distribution Agreement with Sysorex, Inc. The sale was completed in early September.

 

The management believes that the spin-off of the VAR business would allow both companies to focus their resources and energies on their core business plans. Inpixon is now focussing its efforts on the continued growth of its Indoor Positioning Analytics business that is based on proprietary, patented technology with high gross margins.

Financial Results:

 

Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results

  • Revenue: Net revenues were $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $15.1 million for the comparable period in the prior year. This $13.3 million decrease, or approximately 88%, is primarily associated with the decline in revenues earned by the Infrastructure Segment as a result of supplier credit issues and a $1.6 million decrease in revenue resulting from an adjustment in the recognition of revenues following the adoption of the new ASC 606 revenue recognition policy beginning in January 2018.
  • For the three months ended June 30, 2018, Indoor Positioning Analytics revenue was $1,274,000 compared to $1,156,000 for the prior year period. Infrastructure revenue was $554,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018, and $13.9 million for the prior year period. The company anticipates that the Infrastructure Segment revenue (which will be retained by Sysorex, Inc. in connection with the spin-off) will start to recover in Q3 2018 and Q4 2018 as it rebuilds its supplier relationships and head into the federal government busy season.
  • Gross Profit: Gross profit for the three months ended June 2018 was $1 million versus $3.4 million for the same period in 2017. The gross profit margin for the three months ended June 30, 2018, was 55% compared to 22% during the three months ended June 30, 2017. This increase in gross margin is primarily due to the decrease in lower margin storage and maintenance sales. Indoor Positioning Analytics gross margins for the three months ended June 30, 2018, and 2017 were 71% and 67%, respectively. Gross margins for the Infrastructure segment for the three months ended June 30, 2018, and 2017 was 19%.
  • Net Loss: GAAP Net loss attributable to common stockholders of Inpixon for the three months ended June 30, 2018, was $5.9 million compared to $6.4 million for the prior year period. This decrease in loss of $500,000 was attributable to the changes described for the various reporting captions discussed above. GAAP net loss per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, was ($1.08), compared to a net loss per share of ($81.26) for the comparable period in 2017.

 

Key risk factors and potential stock drivers:

  • INPX has completed five acquisitions since 2013 and remains exposed to risks and uncertainties related to the acquisition of new businesses
  • The company’ business and financial performance for the upcoming quarter would be a key trigger. More importantly, during the third and fourth quarters of 2018, following the federal government’s busy season.
  • The company has faced credit challenges in the recent past. Therefore, its ability to prudently manage its credit profile would continue to remain a critical factor.
  • The company’ ability to onboard high-technology, a global defence, the federal government, and telecommunications customers, both within the U.S. and abroad.
