Enovix Announces First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

FREMONT, Calif., May 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enovix Corporation (“Enovix”) (Nasdaq: ENVX), a global high-performance battery company, announced today financial results for first quarter 2024, which included the summary below from its President and CEO, Dr. Raj Talluri.

Fellow Shareholders,

In the first quarter of 2024 we made tremendous progress toward readying Fab2 in Malaysia to begin production while closely collaborating with leading customers ahead of shipping first samples of our breakthrough EX-1M battery. Our recent highlights include:

  • Strong top-line growth: Revenue of $5.3 million in the first quarter of 2024, up from $21,000 in the first quarter of 2023 and above our forecast of $3.5 million to $4.5 million due to outperformance from batteries sold to IoT customers. Stronger revenues and favorable product mix helped the company achieve positive non-GAAP gross margins for the first time in our history.
  • Malaysia factory buildout: Factory Acceptance Testing (“FAT”) is complete for our Gen2 Agility Line and nearly complete for our high-volume Gen2 Autoline. Site Acceptance Testing (“SAT”) is well underway on both our Gen2 Agility line and Gen2 Autoline, enabling the production of first samples of our breakthrough EX-1M battery in the second quarter of 2024 and the capacity to support qualifications for multiple leading customers.
  • Decisive actions to reduce cash burn: We are accelerating plans to identify additional efficiencies as we scale. We are targeting a reduction of more than one-third of our fixed costs, or more than $35 million annualized, by the end of this year. A more efficient cost structure significantly reduces our capital needs and accelerates our path to profitability.
  • Smartphone customer progress: Leading smartphone OEMs are excited by our product roadmap and looking to formalize relationships to be among the first using our battery. To that end, we recently reached a development agreement with a top 5 smartphone OEM by unit volume. We are building EX-1M battery cells in Fremont aligned with specifications received from leading smartphone customers. Six of the top eight smartphone OEMs in the world by unit volume (who collectively represent approximately $7 billion of total addressable market) will receive samples, which we will begin shipping in the second quarter of 2024.
  • IoT customer progress: In addition to near-term revenue contribution from IoT, our commercial team is selectively focused on IoT product design-in opportunities from key customers with product launches over the next two years for EX-1M and EX-2M high energy density batteries.

Looking forward, we are approaching key milestones on our Journey to Scale in the second quarter of 2024 with production beginning in Fab2 and the first EX-1M samples being shipped to customers.

None of this would be possible without the collective success of our global teams, from the operations team in Malaysia readying Gen2/Fab2, to the team in India that has been able to reduce R&D cycle times, to the team in Korea enhancing our coating capabilities. The success of our global operations is a key enabler that allows us to reduce cash burn.

Our mission is to deliver high performance batteries that unlock the full potential of technology products and enrich people’s lives. Our long-term opportunity remains extremely attractive, and we see immense potential to generate long-term value for our shareholders.

Business Update

Manufacturing. We prioritized FAT/SAT for the Gen2 Agility Line in Malaysia given that it is well-suited to handle the volume of samples needed at this stage in the customer qualification process for our EX-1M battery. We completed FAT for the Agility Line in April and have most of the tools now in Malaysia as we finalize SAT and prepare to produce first batteries out of this line this quarter.

Additionally, we are far along on both FAT and SAT for the high-volume Gen2 Autoline and expect to produce batteries from it in the third quarter of 2024. As a reminder, the Gen2 Autoline is based on the same tools as the Agility Line but with higher throughput. Thus, clearing FAT for the Agility Line is a significant de-risking event for manufacturing our battery.

Commercialization. We are highly engaged with most of the leading smartphone OEMs globally and have begun building EX-1M samples in Fremont aligned to their rigorous specifications.

Our thesis with a Mobile-first approach to product development is that the smartphone sets the standard for battery technology in consumer electronics broadly, which should also allow us to translate success in smartphones to other areas. During our customer visits in the first quarter of 2024, including at the Mobile World Congress trade show, we received positive feedback of this approach as we saw interest in EX-1M for not only smartphones, but IoT products as well. As noted earlier, we have identified multiple IoT design-in opportunities for product launches as we scale during 2025 and 2026. While we expect smartphone batteries to constitute most of our revenue when we ramp EX-1M next year, we also expect a material revenue contribution from batteries for IoT products.

In Automotive, we continue to see interest from leading OEMs due the unique thermal and mechanical advantages of our cell architecture to enable fast charge and higher performance in the EV market.

During the quarter, we also identified incremental industrial IoT opportunities for our graphite-based battery business in Korea due to product advantages such as high discharge rates (up to 30C) and the ability to manufacture large cells (up to 12.5 Ah).

Technology and Products. During the first quarter of 2024, we aligned on our EX-1M product specification with two leading smartphone OEMs that are positioning to be first to market with our battery in 2025. And in April, we produced our first internal samples of EX-1M at Fab1.

Critical to our product development efforts has been work led by our team in India to use advanced modeling to reduce internal battery cell qualification from 14 weeks in 2023 down to six weeks in the first quarter of 2024.

In parallel, we are moving quickly to improve the conventional graphite battery product portfolio we acquired late last year by leveraging our global R&D teams and access to advanced materials, including silicon-carbon anode blends to increase energy density. This work has also highlighted for us the limits of silicon in a conventional architecture, which increases our confidence in the uniqueness of our core battery architecture and its potential to be the industry’s best solution to maximize silicon and battery performance.

Financials. Total revenue in the first quarter of 2024 was $5.3 million, down from $7.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Our GAAP cost of revenue of $7.1 million in the first quarter of 2024 was down from $19.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. Our non-GAAP cost of revenue of $5.2 million in the first quarter of 2024 was down from $17.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 and drove a positive non-GAAP gross profit for the first time in the company’s history.

Our GAAP operating expenses of $68.3 million in the first quarter of 2024 were up from $52.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. Our non-GAAP operating expenses of $54.4 million in the first quarter of 2024 were up from $40.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. Both our GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses in the first quarter of 2024 included accelerated depreciation of $18.5 million associated with the strategic realignment of Fab1 and was recognized in R&D expenses. We expect our GAAP and non-GAAP operating expenses to return to normalized levels in the second quarter of 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of 2024 was a loss of $26.3 million compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $23.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Earnings per share in the first quarter of 2024 were a loss of $0.28 on a GAAP basis and a loss of $0.31 on a non-GAAP basis compared to a loss of $0.36 on a GAAP basis and a loss of $0.28 on a non-GAAP basis in the fourth quarter of 2023.

We exited the first quarter of 2024 with $262.4 million of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments due to cash used in operating activities of $35.0 million and capital expenditures of $15.1 million.

A full reconciliation of our GAAP to non-GAAP results is available later in this report.

Outlook

For the second quarter of 2024, we expect revenue between $3.0 million and $4.0 million, an adjusted EBITDA loss of $26 million to $32 million, and a non-GAAP EPS loss of $0.22 to $0.28.

Summary

We are off to a strong start in 2024, with Fab2 scheduled to begin battery production and final EX-1M batteries ready for sampling in the second quarter. Our customer relationships have grown even stronger as leading OEMs are eager to be first to market with a high energy battery cell capable of using a 100% active silicon anode.

Management’s Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and other non-GAAP measures are intended as supplemental financial measures of our performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the use of non-GAAP measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results, trends, and in comparing our financial measures with those of comparable companies, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

However, you should be aware that when evaluating the non-GAAP measures, we may incur future expenses similar to those excluded when calculating these measures. In addition, the presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. Our computation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and other non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies, because all companies may not calculate the non-GAAP measures in the same fashion.

Net Loss Attributable to Enovix to Adjusted EBITDA

While we prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, we also utilize and present certain financial measures that are not based on GAAP. We refer to these financial measures as “non-GAAP” financial measures. In addition to our financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful measures in evaluating its financial and operational performance distinct and apart from financing costs, certain non-cash expenses and non-operational expenses.

These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP. We endeavor to compensate for the limitation of the non-GAAP financial measures presented by also providing the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

We use non-GAAP financial information to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning, budgeting and forecasting purposes. We believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors in assessing its operating performance and comparing its performance with competitors and other comparable companies. You should review the reconciliations below but not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

“EBITDA” is defined as earnings (net loss) attributable to Enovix adjusted for interest expense, income tax benefit, depreciation and amortization expense. “Adjusted EBITDA” includes additional adjustments to EBITDA such as stock-based compensation expense, change in fair value of common stock warrants, inventory step-up, impairment of equipment and other special items as determined by management which it does not believe to be indicative of its underlying business trends.

Below is a reconciliation of net loss attributable to Enovix on a GAAP basis to the non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA financial measures for the periods presented below (in thousands):

Free Cash Flow

We define “Free Cash Flow” as (i) net cash from operating activities less (ii) capital expenditures, net of proceeds from disposals of property and equipment, all of which are derived from our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow. The presentation of non-GAAP Free Cash Flow is not intended as an alternative measure of cash flows from operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP. We believe that this financial measure is useful to investors because it provides investors to view our performance using the same tool that we use to gauge our progress in achieving our goals and it is an indication of cash flow that may be available to fund investments in future growth initiatives.
