MILPITAS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / May 17, 2023 / Altigen Communications, Inc. (OTCQB:ATGN), a Silicon Valley-based cloud solutions provider for the Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS), Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) and our Customer Engagement as a Service (CEaaS) markets, announced today its financial results for the second quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Second Quarter Highlights (Fiscal 2023 versus Fiscal 2022)

  • Net Revenue increased 32% to $3.4 million;
  • Gross margin decreased to 63.4%, compared with 70.2%;
  • GAAP net loss and loss per share of ($0.1) million and ($0.01), respectively, compared to GAAP net income and diluted EPS of $0.07 million and $0.00, respectively;
  • Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.1 million and $0.00, respectively, compared to $0.3 million and $0.01, respectively.

“We’re pleased to report that our cloud services revenues increased quarter over quarter”, said Jeremiah Fleming, Altigen President & CEO. “While our gross margins were down a bit due to the higher concentration of professional services revenue in the quarter, we do expect a return to normal levels as our cloud services revenues increase as a percentage of overall revenues. We also continued to remain cash flow positive even though we have been heavily investing in our new solutions. As we get closer to exiting this investment phase and start moving into our planned growth phase, we expect to see continued growth in our cloud services business.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items to facilitate a review of the comparability of our core operating performance on a period-to-period basis. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, depreciation and amortization expenses, acquisition-related costs, change in deferred tax asset valuation allowance, litigation costs and other non-recurring or unusual charges or benefits that may arise from time to time that we do not consider to be directly related to core operating performance. We use non-GAAP measures to evaluate the core operating performance of our business and to perform financial planning. Since we find these measures to be useful, we believe that investors benefit from seeing results reviewed by management in addition to seeing GAAP results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with our GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by facilitating: (i) the comparability of our on-going operating results over the periods presented and (ii) the ability to identify trends in our underlying business.
