Netlist Reports First Quarter 2023 Results

IRVINE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / April 25, 2023 / Netlist, Inc. (OTCQB:NLST) today reported financial results for the first quarter ended April 1, 2023.

"First quarter results reflect the ongoing downturn in the memory market," said Chief Executive Officer, C.K. Hong. "Demand remains sluggish across the industry, which will continue to impact our product business. The recent unanimous jury verdict against Samsung in the United States District Court awarded Netlist $303 million for Samsung's willful infringement of five of Netlist's patents and highlights the critical value of Netlist's intellectual property for emerging memory technologies."

Net sales for the first quarter ended April 1, 2023 were $9.0 million, compared to net sales of $50.2 million for the first quarter ended April 2, 2022. Gross profit for the first quarter ended April 1, 2023 was $0.6 million, compared to a gross profit of $3.4 million for the first quarter ended April 2, 2022.

Net loss for the first quarter ended April 1, 2023 was ($15.8) million, or ($0.07) per share, compared to a net loss in the prior year period of ($5.9) million, or ($0.03) per share. These results include stock-based compensation expense of $1.1 million and $0.7 million for the quarters ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, respectively.

As of April 1, 2023, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was $36.6 million, total assets were $55.7 million, working capital was $22.0 million, total debt was $0.3 million, and stockholders' equity was $23.3 million.
