Sonos Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2022 Results

Sonos, Inc. (Nasdaq: SONO) today reported third quarter fiscal 2022 results.

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights (unaudited)

  • Revenue decreased 1.8% year-over-year to $371.8 million; on a constant-currency basis, revenue increased approximately 2.2% year-over-year
  • Gross margin increased 30 basis points year-over-year to 47.3%
  • GAAP net loss of $0.6 million compared to GAAP net income of $17.8 million last year; non-GAAP net income excluding stock-based compensation and legal and transaction related fees of $25.6 million compared to $38.7 million last year
  • GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.00 compared to $0.12 last year; non-GAAP diluted EPS excluding stock-based compensation and legal and transaction related fees of $0.19 compared to $0.27 last year
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $42.1 million compared to $46.7 million last year
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin of 11.3% compared to 12.3% last year
  • Cash flows used in operating activities of $6.7 million
  • Free cash flow of ($16.0) million

Sonos CEO Patrick Spence commented, “We have seen the macroeconomic backdrop become significantly more challenging for us starting in June as the dollar’s appreciation and high inflation have adversely affected consumer sentiment globally, particularly in the categories in which we play. As a result, revenue missed our expectations for Q3 and we are adjusting our FY22 outlook accordingly.”

Spence continued, “Although we cannot predict when macroeconomic conditions will normalize, we remain confident that, when they do, we will return to double-digit revenue growth. We base this on our category leadership position, our flywheel of new and existing customer repurchases and robust product roadmap. We expect to weather the current environment while operating from a position of strength: we are profitable, we are debt free, and we have a huge market opportunity. We are tightly focused on expenses while prudently and deliberately investing in a number of products and initiatives in new and existing categories that we believe customers will love and will drive our long-term success.”

Sonos today separately announced that Brittany Bagley, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO), is stepping down to pursue another professional opportunity. Eddie Lazarus, the Company’s Chief Legal Officer (CLO) will succeed Ms. Bagley as interim CFO effective Sept. 1, 2022.

Fiscal 2022 Outlook

  • Revenue in the range of $1.730 billion to $1.755 billion, representing growth of 1% to 2% from fiscal 2021, or growth of 4% to 5% on a constant currency basis. This compares to a prior outlook range of $1.95 billion to $2.0 billion, which represented growth of 14% to 16% from fiscal 2021
  • Gross margin in the range of 45.7% to 45.9%, narrowed from previous gross margin range of 45.5% to 46.0%
  • Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $215 million to $230 million, representing a decline of 23% to 17% from fiscal 2021. This compares to a prior outlook range of $290 million to $310 million, which represented growth of 4% to 11%
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin of 12.4% to 13.1%, compared to prior outlook range of 14.9% to 15.5%

Fiscal 2024 Targets

  • Due to the uncertain and evolving macroeconomic backdrop, the timeline to achieve the Company’s previously issued targets of $2.5 billion revenue, 45-47% gross margins and 15-18% Adjusted EBITDA margins is being extended beyond FY2024

(1) Restructuring and related expenses for the nine months ended July 3, 2021, include a gain of $2.8 million, related to our negotiation for the early termination of a facility lease that was part of the 2020 restructuring plan. The gain represents the difference between the related operating lease liability and previously accrued restructuring expenses versus the early termination payment.

(2) Legal and transaction related costs consist of expenses related to our intellectual property litigation against Alphabet Inc. and Google LLC as well as legal and transaction costs associated with our acquisition activity, which we do not consider representative of our underlying operating performance.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

We have provided in this press release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow, net income excluding stock-based compensation and legal and transaction related fees, and diluted earnings per share (EPS) excluding stock-based compensation and legal and transaction related fees. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by U.S. GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our operating performance and trends and make planning decisions. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses and other items that we exclude in these non-GAAP financial measures. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allowing for greater transparency with respect to a key financial metric used by our management in its financial and operational decision-making. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these financial measures to their nearest U.S. GAAP financial equivalents provided in the financial statement tables above. We define adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted to exclude the impact of depreciation, stock-based compensation expense, interest income, interest expense, other income (expense), income taxes and other items that we do not consider representative of our underlying operating performance. We define adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. We define free cash flow as net cash from operations less purchases of property and equipment and intangible and other assets. We calculate non-GAAP net income excluding stock-based compensation and legal and transaction related fees as net income less stock-based compensation and legal and transaction related fees. We calculate non-GAAP diluted EPS excluding stock-based compensation and legal and transaction related fees as net income less stock-based compensation and legal and transaction related fees divided by our number of shares at fiscal year end. We calculate constant currency growth percentages by translating our prior period financial results using the current period average currency exchange rates and comparing these amounts to our current period reported results. We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP financial measures because we cannot do so without unreasonable effort due to unavailability of information needed to calculate reconciling items and due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the adjusting items that would be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures in future periods. When planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods, we do so primarily on a non-GAAP basis without preparing a GAAP analysis as that would require estimates for items such as stock-based compensation, which is inherently difficult to predict with reasonable accuracy. Stock-based compensation expense is difficult to estimate because it depends on our future hiring and retention needs, as well as the future fair market value of our common stock, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. In addition, for purposes of setting annual guidance, it would be difficult to quantify stock-based compensation expense for the year with reasonable accuracy in the current quarter. As a result, we do not believe that a GAAP reconciliation would provide meaningful supplemental information about our outlook.
