~~Explanatory Note~~

On November 9, 2022 we issued our earnings release for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Subsequent to the release, and upon further review of the applicable accounting treatment of certain redemption features of our Convertible Notes and Warrants Offering, it was determined that certain balances required adjustment from those set forth in the earnings release. The balances that were adjusted are Convertible notes payable, net (current and long term), Warrant and derivative liabilities, General and administrative expense, Interest expense, and Change in fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities. The net impact of these adjustments is a decrease in the reported net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 by $1.5 million, which represented a decrease in the net loss per share (basic and diluted) previously presented in our earnings release of $0.03 per share. We have not amended, and do not intend to amend our earnings release, and all required adjustments are included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The accompanying interim consolidated balance sheet as of ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, and stockholders’ equity ~~for the three~~ and ~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 and the statement of~~ cash flows for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~and 2021,~~ are unaudited. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, therefore, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been omitted.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the periods presented reflect all adjustments which are normal and recurring, and necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2021~~2022 filed with the SEC on March ~~11, 2022.~~23, 2023 (the "2022 Form 10-K").

Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Operating results for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, ~~2022.~~2023.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." This updated guidance sets forth a current expected credit loss model based on expected losses. Under this model, an entity recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses based on historical experience, current conditions and forecasted information rather than the current methodology of delaying recognition of credit losses until it is probable a loss has been incurred. This guidance becomes effective for the Company beginning in interim periods starting in fiscal year 2023. The impact of adopting the new standard isdid not ~~anticipated to~~ have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options and Derivatives and Hedging: Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity. This ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments whereby embedded conversion features that are not accounted for as derivatives under Accounting Standards Codification 815 or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital are no longer separated from the host contract. Under ASU 2020-06, entities are required to use the if-converted method to calculate the

~~Table of Contents~~

impact of convertible instruments on diluted earnings per share. The if-converted method assumes share settlement of the instrument, which increases the number of potentially dilutive securities used to calculate diluted EPS. This ASU also adds several new disclosure requirements. The Company adopted this ASU in the current period and there was no impact to the prior period.

Reclassifications

Certain ~~reclassification~~reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current presentation.

3. Equity Transactions

In a registered direct offering concurrent with the 2022 Notes and Warrants Offering referred to in Note 4, on August 11, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Additional Purchase Agreement” and together with the Securities Purchase Agreement further discussed in Note 4, the “Purchase Agreements”) with certain accredited investors to sell at a purchase price of $2.65 per share an aggregate of 1,132,075 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,132,075 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Additional Warrants”) (the “Stock and Additional Warrants Offering”). Each Additional Warrant is exercisable on the sixth month anniversary of the date of its issuance at an exercise price of $2.65 per share and expires on February 14, 2028. The issuance of the Shares and the Additional Warrants were conducted as a registered direct offering pursuant to the Company’s currently effective Registration Statement on Form S-3, previously filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and prospectus supplements thereunder. The Stock and Additional Warrants Offering closed on August 12, 2022, and the Company raised net cash proceeds of $2.8 million.

The Additional Warrants were assessed and concluded to be liability instruments due to cash purchase settlement provisions and as a result all changes in the fair value of the Additional Warrants will be recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations until they are either exercised or expire. The Additional Warrants are not traded in an active securities market and, as such, the estimated fair value at inception was $1.6 million determined utilizing a Black-Scholes option pricing model and is reflected on the balance sheet line "Warrant liabilities" and as an adjustment to Additional Paid-in Capital.

In accordance with the 2022 Notes and Warrants offering described further in Note 4, during the quarter ended March 31, 2023, at the Company's election, 1,644,738 shares were issued for the April 1, 2023 installment date and the payment for the April 1, 2023 installment date was completed on March 31, 2023, which reduced the convertible notes balance by $1.5 million and is discussed further in Note 4. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, at the Company's election, 1,592,359 shares were prefunded for the May 1, 2023 installment date, which is represented in the balance sheet line "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" as of March 31, 2023. There were no conversions by the holders of the Notes during the first quarter of 2023.

4. Debt and ~~Fair Value of Financial Instruments~~Warrants Transactions

2022 Notes and Warrants Offering

On August 11, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement ("SPA") with certain accredited investors, and, pursuant to the SPA, sold a new series of senior secured convertible notes (the "Notes") with an aggregate original principal amount of $15.0 million and an initial conversion price of $3.35 per share, subject to adjustment as described in the Notes, and warrants to acquire up to an aggregate amount of 2,238,806 additional shares of the Company’s common stock (the "Warrants" and together with the Notes, the "Notes and Warrants Offering"). The Warrants are exercisable immediately at an exercise price of $3.35 per share and expire 5 years from the date of issuance on August 11, 2027. There is no established public trading market for the Warrants and the Company does not intend to list the Warrants on any national securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system. The closing of the Notes and Warrants Offering occurred on August 11, 2022.

The Notes accrue compounding interest at the rate of 6.0% per annum, which is payable in cash or shares of the Company's common stock at the Company's option, in arrears quarterly in accordance with the terms of the Notes. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Notes), the Notes will accrue interest at the rate of 15.0% per annum. Upon conversion and other designated events, holders of the Notes are also entitled to receive an interest make-whole payment. Upon a redemption due to a Change in Control (as defined in the Notes), holders of the Notes are entitled to cash settlement. The Notes mature on December 31, 2023, with amortization payments due monthly by the first business day of the month from April 2023 through December 2023, and the balance at maturity. The April 2023 installment payment of $1.5 million was made on March 31, 2023, as described in Note 3 above, and as such a portion of the debt and related derivative were derecognized as of March 31, 2023.

The Warrants were assessed and concluded to be liability instruments due to cash settlement provisions, and as a result all changes in the fair value of warrants will be recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations until they are either exercised or expire. The Warrants are not traded in an active securities market and, as such, the estimated fair value at inception was $3.8 million, determined utilizing a Black-Scholes option pricing model and is reflected on the balance sheet line ~~Warrant and derivative liabilities~~"Warrant liabilities" and as a discount on the Notes.

The Notes contain a make-whole feature and a redemption right payable in cash upon change in control feature, ~~which~~as well as certain other conversion and redemption features. These features are ~~both~~viewed as a compound embedded ~~derivatives~~derivative that ~~meet~~meets the criteria to be bifurcated and carried at fair value. ~~These are~~This is classified as in the balance sheet line ~~Warrant and derivative liabilities~~"Derivative

The assumptions ~~being utilized:~~

The Notes also contain certain other conversion and redemption features which represent embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation from the debt host instrument and fair value reported at each reporting period; however the key inputs in valuing these instruments include the likelihood that events triggering these provisions will occurutilized during the ~~term of the Notes. The Company has assessed the likelihood of these events occurring~~quarter are as ~~remote at issuance and again at September 30, 2022 such that no value is ascribed to the instruments.~~follows:

Given that the warrants and the derivatives are liability instruments that are measured at fair value, the transaction proceeds were allocated first to the warrants and derivatives, with the residual to the Notes. Transaction issuance costs for the Notes

~~Table of Contents~~

and Warrants Offering were allocated in the same manner, with $0.5 million relating to the warrants and derivatives being expensed immediately within General and administrative expenses. Deferred financing costs for the Notes and Warrant Offering totaled $0.5 million and are reported net of accumulated amortization as a deduction from the face amount of the debt. Amortization of the deferred financing costs and discount is reported as a component of interest expense and is computed using the effective interest method over the expected term of the debt. In the Notes and Warrant Offering, the Company raised net cash proceeds of $14.0 million.

During the three ~~and nine month period~~months ended ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the Company recognized interest expense of ~~$0.9~~$2.3 million on the Notes and related instruments utilizing the effective interest rate of 155%, which includes amortization of debt issuance costs of $0.1 million, amortization of discount of ~~$0.7~~$2.0 million, and contractual interest of ~~$0.1~~$0.2 million.

The current balance of the Notes as of ~~September 30, 2022~~ March 31, 2023 is as follows (unaudited, in thousands):

The Notes contain certain customary affirmative and negative covenants regarding the incurrence of indebtedness, acquisition and investment transactions, the existence of liens, the repayment of indebtedness, the payment of cash in respect of dividends, distributions or redemptions, and the transfer of assets, among other matters. As of ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

Warrant Liabilities

As further discussed above, on August 11, 2022, warrants to purchase 2,238,806 shares of common stock were issued with an exercise price of $3.35 per share in conjunction with the Notes and Warrants Offering, at an initial fair value of $3.8 million. As further discussed in Note 4,3, Additional Warrants ~~(as defined in Note 4 below)~~ to purchase 1,132,075 shares of common stock were issued with an exercise price of $2.65 per share in conjunction with the Stock and Additional Warrants ~~Offering (as defined in Note 4 below).~~Offering.

All changes in the fair value of these warrant liabilities are recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations until they are either exercised or expire. There were no warrant exercises in the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The warrants are not traded in an active securities market and, as such, the estimated fair value at inception and again at ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 was determined by using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that utilizes assumptions noted in the following table. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility over the expected term of the warrants. The Company has no reason to believe future volatility over the expected remaining life of the warrants is likely to differ materially from historical volatility. Expected life is based on the contractual term of the warrants. Below are the specific assumptions utilized:

5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The ~~warrants~~ Company measures and ~~derivative instruments are measured as Level 3 instruments in the~~discloses fair value ~~hierarchy~~measurements as ~~per~~required by FASB ASC Topic No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures~~for fair value measurements of items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements.~~.

Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received upon the sale of an asset or the amount that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a

~~Table of Contents~~

liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the FASB establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

•Level 1 -– Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active ~~markets~~markets.

•Level 2 -– Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the ~~marketplace~~marketplace.

•Level 3 -– Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market ~~activity~~activity.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs inwhen measuring fair value.

~~As required by FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic No. 825,~~ ~~Financial Instruments, an entity can choose to measure~~There were no instruments measured at fair value many financial instruments and certain other items that are not currently required to be measured at fair value.

In connection with the Notes and Warrants offering further described in this Note 3 and the Stock and Additional Warrants Offering described in Note 4, the Credit Facility was terminated on August 11, 2022. There were borrowings and repayments of $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

In a registered direct offering concurrent with the Notes and Warrants Offering referred to in Note 3, on August 11, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Additional Purchase Agreement” and together with the SPA, the “Purchase Agreements”) with certain accredited investors to sell an aggregate of 1,132,075 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,132,075 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Additional Warrants”) at a purchase price of $2.65 per share of Company common stock and associated Additional Warrants (the “Stock and Additional Warrants Offering”). Each Additional Warrant is exercisable on the ~~sixth month~~ anniversary of the date of its issuance at an exercise price of $2.65 per share and expires on February 14, 2028. The issuance of the Shares, and the Additional Warrants were conducted as a registered direct offering pursuant to the Company’s currently effective Registration Statement on Form S-3, previously filed with and declared effective by the

~~Table of Contents~~

Securities and Exchange Commission, and prospectus supplements thereunder. The Stock and Additional Warrants Offering closed on August 12, 2022, and the Company raised net cash proceeds of $2.8 million.

The Additional Warrants were assessed and concluded to be liability instruments due to cash purchase settlement provisions and as a result all changes in the fair value of the Additional Warrants will be recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations until they are either exercised or expire. The Additional Warrants for the Company's stock are not traded in an active securities market and, as such, the estimated fair value at inception was $1.6 million determined utilizing a Black-Scholes option pricing model, and is reflected on the balance sheet line Warrant and Derivative Liabilities and as a reduction to Additional Paid in Capital.

Given that the Additional Warrants are liability instruments that are measured at fair value, the transaction proceeds were first allocated among the Additional Warrants, with the residual of $1.4 million to equity and transaction issuance costs allocated in the same manner, with $0.1 million relating to the Additional Warrants being expensed immediately within General and Administrative Expenses, and $0.1 million as an offset to Additional Paid in Capital.

5.6. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, Smith Micro reviews the recoverability of the carrying value of goodwill at least annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment. ~~The Company’s~~For purposes of our goodwill impairment test, we operate as a single reporting unit. Different judgments relating to the determination of reporting units could significantly affect the testing ~~will be performed annually on December 31.~~ of goodwill for impairment and the amount of any impairment recognized.

In the first quarter of 2023, management concluded that the written notice of termination of a U.S. Tier 1 customer agreement for the Company's family safety solution, as disclosed in Note 16 of the 2022 Form 10-K, represented a triggering event indicating possible impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets, including Customer Relationships intangible assets.

Recoverability of goodwill is determined by comparing the fair value of the Company’s single reporting unit to the carrying value of the underlying net assets in the reporting unit. If the fair value of athe reporting unit is determined to be less than the carrying value of its net assets, goodwill is deemed impaired and an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the fair value of its other assets and liabilities. Due to the triggering event, an interim quantitative impairment analysis was performed as of February 28, 2023 for the Company's single reporting unit. The fair value for the reporting unit was

Table of Contents

determined using Level 3 unobservable inputs which incorporated assumptions that the Company believes would be a reasonable market participant's view in a hypothetical purchase, to develop the discounted cash flows, which included estimates of revenue growth, earnings before interest taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and a discount rate of 22% derived from a capital asset pricing model. The fair value was estimated utilizing a combination of the income approach using the estimated discounted cash flows and a market-based valuation methodology applying an equal weighting. The impairment analysis contains inherent uncertainties due to uncontrollable events that could positively or negatively impact anticipated future economic and operating conditions. The estimated fair value of the Company's reporting unit exceeded the fair value of the other assets and liabilities (expressed as a percentage of carrying value) as of February 2023, and as such there was not any impairment. The Company determined that there were no further goodwill impairment indicators at ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and there were no goodwill impairment indicators at December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. If current projections, including revenue growth and operating results are not achieved or specific valuation factors outside the Company's control, such as discount rates, economic or industry challenges, significantly change, goodwill could be subject to future impairment.

For intangibles, an impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an intangible asset is not recoverable and its carrying amount exceeds its fair value. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. The Company assessed the assets impacted as a result of the triggering event indicated above and performed a recoverability test on the Customer relationships intangible asset from the Avast Family Safety Mobile Business acquisition as of February 28, 2023 using Level 3 unobservable inputs including estimates of revenue growth, and EBITDA. The Company's estimated undiscounted future cash flows exceeded the carrying amount of the Customer Relationships intangible asset, and therefore there was no impairment to the definite-lived intangible assets as a result of the triggering event.

The components of the Company’s intangible assets were as follows for the periods ~~presented :~~presented:

6.7. Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates earnings per share (“EPS”) as required by FASB ASC Topic No. 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, excluding common stock equivalents. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, plus the weighted average number of dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock method. For periods with a net loss, the dilutive common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation. For purposes of this calculation, common stock subject to repurchase by the Company, options, warrants, and convertible notes are considered to be common stock equivalents and are only included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share when their effect is dilutive.

The following table sets forth the details of basic and diluted earnings per share (unaudited, in thousands, except per share amounts):

7.8. Stock-Based Compensation

Stock Plans

During the ~~nine months~~quarter ended ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the Company granted 1.4 million shares of restricted stock under the Company’s 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, as amended ("2015 OEIP"), which was approved by Smith Micro’s stockholders on June 18, 2015 and subsequent amendments to the 2015 OEIP to increase the number of shares reserved thereunder were subsequently approved by its stockholders on June 14, 2018 and June 9, 2020. The 2015 OEIP replaced the 2005 Stock Option / Stock Issuance Plan (“2005 Plan”) which was due to expire on July 28, 2015. As of ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, there were approximately ~~2.4~~0.9 million shares available for future grants under the Company’s 2015 Plan.

The outstanding options under the 2005 Plan remain outstanding, but no new grants will be made under the 2005 Plan. The maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for issuance over the term of the 2015 OEIP may not exceed 9,625,000 shares.

The 2015 OEIP provides for the issuance of full value awards (restricted stock, performance stock, dividend equivalent right or restricted stock units) and partial value awards (stock options or stock appreciation rights) to employees, non-employee members of the ~~board~~Company's Board of Directors and consultants. Any full value award settled in shares will be debited as 1.2 shares, and partial value awards settled in shares will be debited as 1.0 shares against the share reserve. The exercise price per share for stock option grants is not to be less than the fair market value per share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors ~~has~~administers the ~~discretion to determine~~2015 OEIP and determines the vesting ~~schedule.~~schedule at the time of grant. Stock options may be exercisable immediately or in installments, but generally vest over a four-year period from the date of grant. In the event the holder ceases to be employed by the Company, all unvested stock options terminate, and all vested stock options may be exercised within a period of 90 days following termination. In general, stock options expire ten years from the date of grant. Restricted stock is valued using the closing stock price on the date of the grant. The total value is expensed over the vesting period, ofwhich typically ranges from 12 to 48 months.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company has a shareholder approved employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”), under which substantially all employees may purchase the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market values of the stock as of the beginning and end of six-month offering periods. An employee’s payroll deductions under the ESPP are limited to 10% of the employee’s compensation and employees may not purchase more than the lesser of $25,000 of stock, or 250 shares, for any purchase period. Additionally, no more than 250,000 shares in the aggregate may be purchased under the ESPP.

Stock Compensation Expense

The Company accounts for all stock-based payment awards made to employees and directors based on their fair values and recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period using the straight-line method over the requisite service period for each award as required by FASB ASC Topic No. 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation.

In the second quarter of 2022 there was a modification of a restricted stock award which accelerated the vesting of that award. As such an additional $0.6 million of stock compensation expense was recorded in Sales and Marketing expense in that period.

8.9. Revenues

Revenue Recognition

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes the sale of goods and services based on the five-step analysis of transactions as provided in Topic 606, which requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for such goods and services.

~~The Company recognizes sales of goods and services based on the five-step analysis of transactions as provided in Topic 606.~~ For all contracts with customers, the Company first identifies the contract which usually is established when a contract is fully executed by each party and consideration is expected to be received. Next, the Company identifies the performance obligations in the contract. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. The Company then determines the transaction price in the arrangement and allocates the transaction price, if necessary, to each performance obligation identified in the contract. The allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations are based on the relative standalone selling prices for the goods and services contained in a particular performance obligation. The transaction price is adjusted for the Company’s estimate of variable consideration which may include certain incentives and discounts, product returns, distributor fees, and storage fees. The Company evaluates the total amount of variable consideration expected to be earned by using the expected value method, as the Company believes this method represents the most appropriate estimate for this consideration, based on historical service trends, the individual contract considerations, and its best judgment at the time. The Company includes estimates of variable consideration in revenues only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Company ~~also~~ generates the majority of its revenue on usage-based fees which are variable and depend entirely on customers’ use of perpetual licenses, transactions processed on the Company’s hosted environment, advertisement placements on the Company’s service platform, and activity on the Company’s cloud-based service platform.

The Company’s contracts with ~~the~~ mobile network operator (“MNO”) customers include promises to transfer multiple products and services. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment. Smith Micro’s cloud-based services include a software solution license integrated with cloud-based services. Since the Company does not allow its customers to take possession of the cloud-based elements of its software solutions, and since the utility of the license comes from the cloud-based services that the Company provides, Smith Micro considers the software license and the cloud services to be a single performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenue associated with its MNO customers based on their active subscribers’ access and usage of Smith Micro’s software licenses and cloud-based services on Smith Micro’s platforms.

Smith Micro has made accounting policy elections to exclude all taxes by governmental authorities from the measurement of the transaction price, and since the Company’s standard payment terms are less than one year, the Company has elected the practical expedient not to assess whether a contract has a significant financing component.

Segment Information

Public companies are required to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments as required by FASB ASC Topic No. 280, Segment Reporting. The Company has one primary business unit based on how management internally evaluates separate financial information, business activities and management responsibility: Wireless. The Wireless segment includes the Family Safety (which includes SafePath®), CommSuite®, and ViewSpot® families of products.

The Company does not separately allocate operating expenses to these product lines, nor does it allocate specific assets. Therefore, product line information reported includes only revenues.

The following table presents the Wireless revenues by product line (unaudited, in thousands):

consolidated results of operations, cash flows, or financial position, litigation is inherently unpredictable, and depending on the nature and timing of these proceedings, an unfavorable resolution could materially affect the Company’s future consolidated results of operations, cash flows, or financial position in a particular period.

Other Contingent Contractual Obligations

During its normal course of business, the Company has made certain indemnities, commitments, and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in connection with certain transactions. These include: indemnities to the Company’s customers pursuant to contracts for the Company’s products and services, including indemnities with respect to intellectual property, confidentiality and data privacy; indemnities to various lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from use of such facility or under such lease; indemnities to vendors and service providers pertaining to claims based on the negligence or willful misconduct of the Company; indemnities involving the accuracy of representations and warranties in certain contracts; and indemnities to directors and officers of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. In addition, the Company has made or may make contractual commitments to employees providing for severance payments upon the occurrence of certain prescribed events. The Company may also issue a guarantee in the form of a standby letter of credit as security for contingent liabilities under certain customer contracts. The duration of these indemnities, commitments, and guarantees varies, and in certain cases may be indefinite. The majority of these indemnities, commitments, and guarantees may not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential for future payments the Company could be obligated to make. The Company has not recorded any liability for these indemnities, commitments, and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

~~11.~~12. Leases

The Company leases office space and equipment, and certain office space was subleased. Management determines if a contract is a lease at the inception of the arrangement and reviews all options to extend, terminate, or purchase its right-of-use assets at the inception of the lease and accounts for these options when they are reasonably certain of being exercised.

Leases with an initial term of greater than twelve months are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company’s lease contracts generally do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. For these contracts, the estimated incremental borrowing rate is based on information available at the inception of the lease.

~~12.~~13. Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes as required by FASB ASC Topic No. 740, Income Taxes. The Company assesses whether a valuation allowance should be recorded against its deferred tax assets based on the consideration of all available evidence, using a “more likely than not” realization standard. The four sources of taxable income that must be considered in determining whether deferred tax assets will be realized are: (1) future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences (i.e., offset of gross deferred tax liabilities against gross deferred tax assets); (2) taxable income in prior carryback years, if carryback is permitted under the applicable tax law; (3) tax planning strategies; and (4) future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards.

In assessing whether a valuation allowance is required, significant weight is to be given to evidence that can be objectively verified. A significant factor in the Company’s assessment is that the Company was in a three-year historical cumulative loss as of the end of fiscal ~~2021.~~2022. In addition, the Company was also in a loss for fiscal 2017 and 2018. These facts, combined with uncertain near-term market and economic conditions, reduced the Company’s ability to rely on projections of future taxable income in assessing the realizability of its deferred tax assets.

After a review of the four sources of taxable income as of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, and after consideration of the Company’s cumulative loss position as of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company will continue to reserve its U.S.-based deferred tax amounts, which total ~~$57.3~~$62.7 million as of ~~September 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. Currently there are no audits in process or pending from federal or state tax authorities. The Company is no longer subject to examination for U.S. federal income tax returns for years before December 31, 2018 and for state income tax returns, the Company is no longer subject to examination for years before December 31, 2017. As of ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the Company had no outstanding tax audits. The outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in the Company’s tax audits are resolved in a manner not consistent with management’s expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income tax in the period such resolution occurs. Smith Micro may from time to time be assessed interest or penalties by major tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and

immaterial to the consolidated financial results of the Company. It is the Company’s policy to classify any interest and/or penalties in the consolidated financial statements as a component of income tax expense.

~~13.~~14. Subsequent Events

The Company evaluates and discloses subsequent events as required by FASB ASC Topic No. 855, Subsequent Events. The Topic establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. Subsequent events have been evaluated as of the date of this filing and no further disclosures are required.

•our ability to hire and retain key personnel;

•the possibility of security and privacy breaches in our systems and in the third-party software and/or systems that we use, damaging client relations and inhibiting our ability to grow;

•failure to realize the expected benefits of recent acquisitions;

•interruptions or delays in the services we provide from our data center hosting facilities that could harm our business;

•~~our ability and/or customers’ ability to distribute our mobile software applications to their end users through third party mobile software application stores, which we do not control;~~

•the existence of undetected software defects in our products and our failure to resolve detected defects in a timely manner;

•our current client concentration within the vertical wireless carrier market, and the potential impact to our business resulting from changes within this vertical market, or failure to penetrate new markets;

•the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and financial results;

•rapid technological evolution and resulting changes in demand for our products from our key customers and their end users;

•intense competition in our industry and the core vertical markets in which we operate, and our ability to successfully compete;

•the risks inherent with international operations;

•the impact of evolving information security and data privacy laws on our business and industry;

•the impact of governmental regulations on our business and industry;

•our ability to protect our intellectual property and our ability to operate our business without infringing on the rights of others;

•the risk of being delisted from NASDAQ if we fail to meet any of its applicable listing requirements;

•our ability to raise additional capital and the risk of such capital not being available to us at commercially reasonable terms or at all;

Since our acquisitions of Circle Media Labs, Inc.'s ("Circle") operator business in 2020 and ~~Avast plc's family safety mobile business (the "Family~~the Family Safety Mobile ~~Business")~~Business from Avast in April 2021, we have been focused on migrating ~~the~~those customers from the acquired software platforms to our flagship SafePath platform, with the first such migration being completed during the first quarter of 2022 at one of our U.S. Tier 1 carrier customers.

~~Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021~~

~~Revenues~~. Revenues were $37.1 million and $43.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, representing a decrease of $6.6 million, or 15%. This decrease was driven by a decline in CommSuite revenues of approximately $7.6 million as a result of the continued migration of legacy Sprint customers onto the T-Mobile network. Partially offsetting this decline were increases in our Family Safety and ViewSpot product lines of approximately $0.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

The decrease of $8.9 million in gross profit is a result of~~ ~~the period-over-period decline in revenue volume combined with~~ ~~the product mix underlying the revenues.~~

~~Selling and marketing~~. Selling and marketing expenses were $9.7 million and $8.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

~~Research and development. Research and development expenses were $23.1 million and $19.1 million for the~~ ~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This increase of $4.0 million was primarily due to an increase in personnel related expenses as a result of the acquisition of the Family Safety Mobile Business and contractor costs~~ ~~associated with supporting SafePath development.~~

~~General and administrative. General and administrative expenses were $12.4 million and $13.7 million for the~~ ~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021~~, respectively.

This decrease of $3.2~~$2.3 million was primarily related to the amortization of ~~certain intangible assets~~the discount and debt issuance costs and stated interest expense related to the financing transaction from August of 2022.

Other (expense) income, net. Other expense was nominal for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and other income was $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are its existing cash and cash equivalents, and cash generated by operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and

~~Table of Contents~~

disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. On an on-going basis, we review our estimates to ensure that they appropriately reflect changes in our business or new information as it becomes available. See Note 1 of our Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our ~~Annual Report~~2022 Form 10-K for information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”)) as of ~~September 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have determined that as of ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and our management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Management’s responsibility for financial statements

Our management is responsible for the integrity and objectivity of all information presented in this Report. The consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP and include amounts based on management’s best estimates and judgments.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company may become involved in various legal proceedings arising from its business activities. While management does not believe the ultimate disposition of these matters will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows, or financial position, litigation is inherently unpredictable, and depending on the nature and timing of these proceedings, an unfavorable resolution could materially affect the Company’s future consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position in a particular period.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information included in this Report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our ~~Annual Report,~~2022 Form 10-K, and the factors identified at the beginning of Part I, Item 2 of this Report, under the heading, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” which could materially affect our business, financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations. The risks described in the ~~Annual Report~~2022 Form 10-K are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that the Company currently considers immaterial also may materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, and/or operating results. There have been no material changes to the risk factors included in our ~~Annual Report~~ 2022 Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021, other than as described below.~~2022.

~~Risks Related to Our Convertible Notes~~

The terms of our notes, and our debt repayment obligations thereunder, may restrict our ability to obtain additional financing, and adversely affect our financial condition and cash flows from operations in the future.

Our indebtedness under the notes, and certain restrictions included within the terms of the notes, may restrict, and otherwise impair our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures, potential acquisitions and strategic transactions.Further, a portion of our cash flows from operations may have to be dedicated to repaying the principal and interest of the notes during 2023. Our ability to meet our debt obligations will depend on our future performance, which will be affected by financial, business, economic, regulatory and other factors, many of which are outside of our control. Our future operations may not generate sufficient cash to enable us to repay our debt, including the notes. If we fail to make a payment on our debt, we could be in default on such debt. If we are at any time unable to pay our indebtedness under the notes in cash when due, we may be required to issue additional shares of common stock on unfavorable terms.

~~Conversion of the notes and exercise of the warrants will dilute the ownership interest of our existing stockholders or may otherwise depress the price of our common stock.~~

The conversion of some or all of the notes or exercise of some or all of the warrants issued along with the notes will dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders. Any sales in the public market of our common stock issuable upon such conversion of the notes or exercise of the warrants could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock. In addition, the existence of the notes may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the notes or exercise of the warrants could be used to satisfy short positions, or anticipated conversion of the notes into, or exercise of warrants for, shares of our common stock could depress the price of our common stock.

~~We may require additional financing to sustain or grow our operations and such additional capital may not be available to us, or only available to us on unfavorable terms.~~

To the extent that revenues generated by our ongoing operations are insufficient to fund future requirements, we may need to raise additional funds through debt or equity financings or curtail our growth. The notes contain limitations on our ability to raise money through equity offerings and to incur additional indebtedness.We cannot be sure that we will be able to raise equity or debt financing on terms favorable to us and our stockholders in the amounts that we require, or at all. Our inability in the future to obtain additional equity or debt capital on acceptable terms, or at all, could adversely impact our ability to execute our business strategy, which could adversely affect our growth prospects and future stockholder returns.

Our obligations to the holders of our notes are secured by a security interest in substantially all of our assets, and if we default on those obligations, the note holders could foreclose on our assets.

notes or the transaction documents, the holders of the notes, acting through their appointed agent, could foreclose on their security interests and liquidate some or all of these assets, which would harm our business, financial condition and results of operations and could require us to curtail or cease operations.

The holders of our notes have certain additional rights upon an event of default under the notes which could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations and could require us to curtail or cease our operations.

Under our notes, the holders have various rights upon an event of default. Such rights include (i) an increase in the interest rate; (ii) the holders having the right to demand redemption of all or a portion of the notes and (iii) the holders have the right to convert the note into our common stock at a discount over then current market price of our common stock. At any time after certain notice requirements for an event of default are triggered, a holder of the notes may require us to redeem all or any portion of the note by delivering written notice. Each portion of the note subject to redemption would be redeemed by us in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds at a price equal to the greater of (i) the product of (A) the conversion amount to be redeemed multiplied by (B) the redemption premium (equal to 125%) and (ii) the product of (X) the conversion rate with respect to the conversion amount in effect at such time as the holder delivers an event of default redemption notice multiplied by (Y) the product of (1) the redemption premium (equal to 125%) multiplied by (2) the greatest closing sale price of the common stock on any trading day during the period commencing on the date immediately preceding the event of default and ending on the date we make the entire payment required to be made under the notes. We may not have sufficient funds to settle the redemption price and, as described above, this could trigger rights under the security interest granted to the holders and result in the foreclosure of their security interests and liquidation of some or all of our assets.
