Unwired Planet, Inc. (UPIP), today announced financial results for the
first quarter 2013.
“Having completed our transformation, we find ourselves laser focused on
our IP portfolio monetization efforts. We can now ‘lean forward’ with a
highly cash efficient and effective platform for Unwired Planet going
forward. Our legacy business distractions are now behind us and the
critical operational changes we have implemented, including moving our
headquarters to Reno, Nevada, bolstering our board, and taking decisive
action in our legal complaints, creating a strong foundation for our
future. I am confident we have created a platform and model that will
yield a return for shareholders that reflects the value our foundational
IP portfolio deserves,” said Mike Mulica, Chief Executive Officer of
Unwired Planet.
On a GAAP basis, net loss for the first fiscal quarter ended September
30, 2012 was $15.1 million or $0.17 per share, compared with a net
income of $31.9 million, or $0.36 per share, in the prior quarter and
net income of $2.6 million, or $0.03 per share, in the September quarter
in the preceding year. Restructuring costs in the quarter were $0.5
million.
On a non-GAAP basis, net loss for the first fiscal quarter ended
September 30, 2012 was $8.1 million, or $0.09 per share, compared with a
net loss of $6.3 million, or $0.07 per share, in the prior quarter and a
net income of $11.4 million, or $0.13 per share, in the September
quarter in the preceding year. Non-GAAP net loss excludes restructuring,
stock-based compensation, strategic costs, discontinued operations and
the tax impact of these items.
A reconciliation between net income (loss) and net income (loss) per
share on a GAAP basis and a non-GAAP basis is provided below in a table
immediately following the Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations.
Non-GAAP Measure
The Company’s stated results include the non-GAAP measures: non-GAAP net
income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share. These non-GAAP
measures exclude certain items that generally are non-recurring events
or are non-cash items that many other companies exclude, in order to
compare Unwired Planet with other companies, such as stock-based
compensation. These non-GAAP measures also exclude items which
management does not consider in evaluating Unwired Planet’s on-going
business, such as restructuring costs and discontinued operations.
Unwired Planet considers non-GAAP net income (loss) to be an important
measure because it provides a useful measure of the operational
performance of Unwired Planet and is used by Unwired Planet's management
for that purpose. In addition, investors often use measures such as
these to evaluate the financial performance of a company. These non-GAAP
measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only for
understanding Unwired Planet's operating results. These non-GAAP results
should not be considered a substitute for financial information
presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
