Energous Corporation Reports 2023 Second-Quarter Results

Energous Corporation (NASDAQ: WATT), a leading developer of RF-based charging for wireless power networks, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Unaudited 2023 Second-Quarter Financial Results

For the second quarter ended June 30, 2023, Energous reported:

  • Revenue of approximately $117,133, a 21% increase over Q1 2023
  • Costs and expenses of approximately $6.2 million, with approximately $82,818 in cost of revenue, $2.9 million in research and development, and $3.2 million in sales, marketing, general and administrative expenses
  • Net loss of approximately $(4.0) million, or $(0.04) per basic and diluted share
  • Adjusted net non-GAAP loss of approximately $(5.3) million
  • Adjusted non-GAAP costs and expenses of $5.6 million, a 7% reduction from Q2 2022
  • Approximately $20.0 million in cash and cash equivalents at the end of the second quarter, with no debt

Partnership Momentum

  • Energous and InnoTractor — On April 12, the Company announced a partnership with InnoTractor, a European provider of IoT-based solutions for logistics and supply chain applications to integrate wireless power solutions for real-time asset tracking across various industries witnessing significant IoT growth. The partnership will integrate and deploy Energous’ PowerBridge technology and Wiliot’s IoT Pixel tags, providing customers with a solution featuring lower costs, increased mobility and improved sustainability.
  • Energous and WiGL — On August 8, the Company announced the next phase of its partnership with WiGL, a developer of touchless wireless charging for IoT devices for wireless power networks, to develop and commercialize IoT products that will be wirelessly powered over distance (tWPT Project). The Air Force Research Lab at the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) funded the first phase early last year to develop and design tWPT products for military and commercial use. In the project's second phase, Energous’ PowerBridges will continue to provide radio frequency-based (RF) wireless power over distance for WiGL’s tWPT networks.

Company Highlights

  • Japan’s regulatory body has approved Energous’ 1W WattUp PowerBridge for unlimited power distance transmission. This enables Energous to deploy its active energy harvesting technology throughout the technologically advanced Japanese market.
  • On May 9, the Company announced the launch of its 2 Watt PowerBridge transmitter, which doubles the energizing capability of Energous’ 1W transmitter currently deployed in the field, continuing towards Energous’ goal of freeing IoT devices from the constraints of replaceable batteries and charging cords and extending power and range.

“Energous’ solutions continue to gain traction in the IoT market with a growing roster of companies in several of our key verticals conducting proof-of-concept deployments,” said Cesar Johnston, CEO of Energous. “Our team is actively working with these customers to ensure seamless integration with their systems and optimizing operations to ensure our technology delivers tangible results. We look forward to these customers converting to full production contracts.”

All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this press release are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may describe our future plans and expectations and are based on the current beliefs, expectations and assumptions of Energous.

We urge you to consider those factors, and the other risks and uncertainties described in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), any subsequently filed quarterly reports on Form 10-Q as well as in other documents that may have been subsequently filed by Energous, from time to time, with the SEC, in evaluating our forward-looking statements.

We have provided in this release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
