Digi International Reports Second Fiscal Quarter 2020 Results
 
 
 
 
Record Results and Strengthened Balance Sheet
 
 
(Minneapolis, MN, May 7, 2020) - Digi International® Inc. (Nasdaq: DGII), a leading global provider of business and mission critical Internet of Things ("IoT") products, services and solutions, today announced its financial results for its second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020.
“Ensuring our team and company are safe and healthy are the utmost priorities during this global pandemic,” said Ron Konezny, Digi’s Chief Executive Officer. “Digi’s core value of automating and enabling remote work for business and mission critical applications helps our customers during and after the pandemic. Our performance shows the durability of our team and our business model.”
Second Fiscal Quarter 2020 Results
Revenue increased to $73.4 million compared to $65.8 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2019.
Net income increased to $2.0 million compared to $1.3 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2019.
Net income per diluted share increased to $0.07 per share compared to $0.05 for the second fiscal quarter of 2019.
Adjusted EPS increased to $0.28 compared to $0.17 for the second fiscal quarter of 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA increased to $11.2 million compared to $6.5 million for the second fiscal quarter of 2019.
Reconciliations of GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures appear at the end of this release.
Segment Results
IoT Product & Services
The segment's second fiscal quarter 2020 revenues of $66.9 million increased 19.4% from the same period in the prior fiscal year. This increase is primarily attributed to the incremental revenue associated with our acquisition of Opengear, Inc. ("Opengear'") on December 13, 2019. Gross profit margin increased 740 basis points to 53.0% of revenues for the second fiscal quarter of 2020 due primarily to the acquisition of Opengear.
IoT Solutions
The segment's second fiscal quarter 2020 revenues of $6.5 million decreased 32.6% from the same period in the prior fiscal year. This was primarily due to lower site additions in the second fiscal quarter 2020 as well as purchases and equipment upgrades from existing customers that did not reoccur in the second fiscal quarter of 2020. We served approximately 68,500 sites as of March 31, 2020, compared to just over 57,000 sites a year ago. Gross profit margin decreased 50 basis points to 48.5% of revenues due to product mix as the prior year quarter had significant equipment upgrades. In addition, we experienced higher installation costs in the second fiscal quarter of 2020.

Digi International Reports Second Fiscal Quarter 2020 Results

Fiscal 2020 Guidance
We are withdrawing the provision of financial guidance for fiscal year 2020 due to the global impact of COVID-19 on business activities.
Although our second fiscal quarter 2020 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA performance grew, we noted disruptions in normal business activities in the second fiscal quarter, especially for customers whose businesses are located in restricted geographic areas or whose facilities have been closed or otherwise restricted in their operations.
We have implemented measures to reduce expenses while maintaining company performance. We are unable to reasonably estimate when markets will recover, the duration of such a recovery and the related financial impact on our business at this time.

Among other items, these statements relate to expectations of the business environment in which the company operates, projections of future performance, perceived marketplace opportunities and statements regarding our mission and vision. Such statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions.

with acquisitions or divestitures (including, but not limited to, our recently announced acquisition of Opengear), and changes in our level of revenue or profitability which can fluctuate for many reasons beyond our control. These and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions identified from time to time in our filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, including without limitation, our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019 and other filings, could cause the company's future results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. Many of such factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date for which they are made. We disclaim any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share and Adjusted EBITDA, each of which is a non-GAAP measure.
We understand that there are material limitations on the use of non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP measures are not substitutes for GAAP measures, such as net income, for the purpose of analyzing financial performance. The disclosure of these measures does not reflect all charges and gains that were actually recognized by the company. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for measures prepared in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies or presented by us in prior reports. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. We believe that non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, the cash requirements for the replacement of depreciated and amortized assets, or changes in or cash requirements for our working capital needs.
We believe that providing historical and adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share, respectively, exclusive of such items as reversals of tax reserves, discrete tax benefits, restructuring charges and reversals, intangible amortization, stock-based compensation, other non-operating income/expense, adjustments to estimates of contingent consideration, acquisition-related expenses, and interest expense from acquisitions permits investors to compare results with prior periods that did not include these items. Management uses the aforementioned non-GAAP measures to monitor and evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and to gain an understanding of our comparative operating performance. In addition, certain of our stockholders have expressed an interest in seeing financial performance measures exclusive of the impact of these matters, which while important, are not central to the core operations of our business. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, defined as EBITDA adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring charges and reversals, and gains from the disposition of our former corporate headquarters is useful to investors to evaluate the Company’s core operating results and financial performance because it excludes items that are significant non-cash or non-recurring items reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue is useful because it provides a reliable and consistent approach to measuring our performance from year to year and in assessing our performance against that of other companies. We believe this information helps compare operating results and corporate performance exclusive of the impact of our capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired.

(1)
The tax effect from the above adjustments assumes an annualized effective tax rate of 18% for both fiscal 2020 and 2019.
(2)
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, discrete tax benefits primarily include excess tax benefits recognized on stock compensation. For the six months ended March 31, 2020, discrete tax benefits include excess tax benefits recognized on stock compensation and an adjustment of our state deferred tax rate due to the Opengear acquisition. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, discrete tax benefits are a result of expiring statute of limitations of uncertain tax benefits as well as excess tax benefits recognized on stock compensation.
(3)
Adjusted net income per diluted share may not add due to the use of rounded numbers.
