“The Everspin team delivered all-time record revenue of $60.0M for the year 2022 driven by strong demand in industrial, automotive and transportation markets,” said Sanjeev Aggarwal, President & CEO. “We maintained and improved our gross margins through operational efficiency as we managed our suppliers for more capacity to meet the demand. Our recently introduced xSPI family of STT-MRAM products is gaining traction in the industry and we expect it to drive new opportunities.”
Fourth Quarter 2022 Results
Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $15.7 million, an increase of 3% from the $15.2 million reported in the third quarter of 2022. This is compared to $18.2 million of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2021 that was driven by $4.0 million recognized as revenue in the fourth quarter 2021 related to a one-time patent sale.
MRAM product sales in the fourth quarter of 2022, which includes both Toggle and STT-MRAM revenue, was $14.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, and remained consistent with the third quarter of 2022. This is an increase of 15% compared to $12.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.
Licensing, Royalties, Patents and Other revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022 was $1.1 million compared to $0.7 million in the third quarter of 2022 and $5.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.
The increase in total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2022 was due to strong toggle demand and sales along with $0.3 million in revenue from a new licensing arrangement entered into in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2022 was 51.4%, compared to 58.8% in the prior quarter and 62.8% in the fourth quarter of 2021. The decline in gross margin is partly due to a large patent sale that was recognized in 2021 but not in 2022, and increased supplier costs. Going forward, Everspin remains open to evaluating patent sale and licensing IP deals that align with its objectives, although timing is challenging to forecast.
GAAP operating expenses was $7.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $7.1 million in the third quarter of 2022 and $7.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. GAAP operating expenses decreased in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to the fourth quarter of 2021 as a result of reduced development costs related to the new STT 28nm product that went into low volume production and recorded first sales in the fourth quarter of 2022.
GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $0.6 million, or $0.03 per basic share, based on 20.1 million weighted-average basic common shares outstanding. This is compared to net income of $1.9 million, or $0.09 per basic share, in the third quarter of 2022 and net income of $3.7 million, or $0.19 per basic share, in the fourth quarter of 2021.
Cash and cash equivalents as of the end of the fourth quarter of 2022 were $26.8 million, compared to $23.4 million as of the end of the third quarter of 2022, and $21.4 million as of the end of the fourth quarter of 2021.
Everspin generated cash flows from operating activities of $5.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2022, and $6.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.
Business Outlook
For the first quarter 2023, Everspin is confident in its future opportunities and ability to navigate macroeconomic challenges. Everspin expects total revenue in a range of $14.1 million to $14.8 million. Everspin expects GAAP net income per basic share to be between breakeven and $0.05, primarily influenced by expenses related to next generation 28nm STT MRAM product development and price increases from its suppliers.
This outlook is dependent on Everspin's current expectations, which may be impacted by, among other things, evolving external conditions, such as the resurgence of COVID-19 and its variants, local safety guidelines, worsening impacts due to supply chain constraints or interruptions, including due to the recent military conflict in Ukraine and recent market volatility, semiconductor downturn and the other risk factors described in Everspin's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC during 2022, as well as in its subsequent filings with the SEC.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Everspin supplements the reporting of its financial information determined under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America (GAAP) with Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Everspin defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, and restructuring costs if any.
Everspin’s management and board of directors use Adjusted EBITDA to understand and evaluate its operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve its annual budget and to develop short-term and long-term operating and financing plans. Accordingly, Everspin believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information for investors in understanding and evaluating its operating results in the same manner as its management and board of directors. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should be considered in addition to, not as superior to, or as a substitute for, net income reported in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently, which limits the usefulness of this measure for comparisons with such other companies. Everspin encourages investors to review its financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
