"In the fourth quarter of 2023, our product revenue increased significantly on a sequential basis, indicating a positive trend of growth in this revenue stream that we expect to continue throughout 2024 from the ramp in the shipment of LTE-MNB-IoT Monarch 2 and Cat 1 Calliope 2," stated Georges Karam, CEO of Sequans. "We are extremely pleased with the launches of new projects into mass production by our customers and the improvement in backlog. Furthermore, we expect this momentum to continue into 2025 as new and existing design wins accelerate. Also, later in 2025, sales of our 5G Taurus chipset should begin to contribute. Our overall product design pipeline continues to grow and the design win portion now represents more than $400 million of potential three-year-life revenue."
Mr. Karam emphasized, "Concurrently, on the strategic front, the company's board of directors is actively engaging with multiple strategic partners to explore various alternatives. This includes leveraging our unique market position with 5G intellectual property."
Q1 2024 Outlook
The following statement is based on management's current assumptions and expectations. This statement is forward-looking and actual results may differ materially.
Based on recent current customer demand and backlog, management is targeting revenues of over $7 million with greater than 60% gross margin for the quarter ending March 31, 2024, and for a trend of sequential growth for the remaining three quarters of 2024.
Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Summary:
Revenue: Revenue was $4.8 million, a decrease of 38.7% compared to the third quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 70.0% compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. Product revenue was $4.0 million, an increase of 427.4% compared to the third quarter of 2023 and a decrease of 20.4% compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. Service revenue was $0.8 million, reflecting the revenue recognition profile of our agreement with our major 5G licensing partner.
Gross margin: Gross margin was 12.2% compared to 85.8% in the third quarter of 2023 and compared to 75.3% in the fourth quarter of 2022, reflecting lower licensing revenues in the fourth quarter of 2023 and a provision for slow-moving inventory of $1.3 million, compared to $75,000 in the third quarter of 2023 and $0.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Product gross margin excluding the impact of the provision would have been 38.8%.
Operating loss: Operating loss was $12.8 million compared to operating loss of $7.8 million in the third quarter of 2023 and operating loss of $1.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. The fourth quarter of 2023 operating loss reflected $0.8 million in general and administrative expenses from legal fees related to the Renesas tender offer, compared with $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2023 and none in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Net loss: Net loss was $17.3 million, or ($0.28) per diluted ADS, compared to a net loss of $9.6 million, or ($0.16) per diluted ADS, in the third quarter of 2023 and a net loss of $5.0 million, or ($0.10) per diluted ADS, in the fourth quarter of 2022. Net loss in the fourth quarter of 2023 includes a $0.1 million gain on the change in fair value of the convertible debt derivative compared to a gain of $0.4 million in the third quarter of 2023 and a gain of $1.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Non-IFRS loss and diluted loss per ADS: Excluding the non-cash stock-based compensation, the non-cash impact of the fair-value, the amendment and effective interest adjustments related to the convertible debt with embedded derivatives and other financings, non-IFRS net loss was $13.8 million, or ($0.23) per diluted ADS, compared to non-IFRS net loss of $6.8 million, or ($0.12) per diluted ADS in the third quarter of 2023, and a non-IFRS net profit of $2.8 million, or ($0.06) per diluted ADS, in the fourth quarter of 2022. The non-IFRS net loss includes foreign exchange loss of $0.8 million, or ($0.01) per diluted ADS, in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to foreign exchange gain of $0.5 million, or $0.01 per diluted ADS in the third quarter of 2023 and foreign exchange loss of $1.5 million, or $0.03 per diluted ADS, in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Cash: Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2023 totaled $5.7 million compared to $6.7 million at September 30, 2023. The year-end cash balance did not include $9 million in additional debt financing received from Renesas Electronics Corporation in early 2024.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains projections and other forward-looking statements regarding future events and our future financial performance. All statements other than present and historical facts and conditions contained in this release, including any statements regarding Q1 2024 outlook our business strategy, expectation for increasing product revenue, strategic options, the ability to enter into new strategic agreements, expectations for Massive IoT sales, our ability to convert our pipeline to revenue, and our objectives for future operations, are forward-looking statements (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). These statements are only predictions and reflect our current beliefs and expectations with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and subject to risk and uncertainties and subject to change at any time. We undertake no obligation to update the information made in this release in the event facts or circumstances subsequently change after the date of this press release. We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not rely on or place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Actual events or results may differ materially from those contained in the projections or forward-looking statements. In addition to the risk factors contained in our Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained herein include, without limitation: (i) the contraction or lack of growth of markets in which we compete and in which our products are sold, (ii) unexpected increases in our expenses resulting from inflationary pressures and rising interest rates, including manufacturing and operating expenses and interest expense, (iii) our inability to adjust spending quickly enough to offset any unexpected revenue shortfall, (iv) delays or cancellations in spending by our customers, (v) unexpected average selling price reductions, (vi) the significant fluctuations to which our quarterly revenue and operating results are subject due to cyclicality in the wireless communications industry and transitions to new process technologies, (vii) our inability to anticipate the future market demands and future needs of our customers, (viii) our inability to achieve new design wins or for design wins to result in shipments of our products at levels and in the timeframes we currently expect, (ix) our inability to enter into and execute on strategic alliances, (x) our ability to meet performance milestones under strategic license agreements, (xi) the impact of natural disasters on our sourcing operations and supply chain, (xii) the impact of the Ukraine-Russia and Israeli-Hamas conflicts on our independent contractors located in Ukraine and operations in Israel, (xiii) our ability to raise debt and equity financing, and (xiv) other factors detailed in documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial results described in this earnings release should be considered preliminary and are subject to change.
Use of Non-IFRS/non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our unaudited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS, we disclose certain non-IFRS, or non-GAAP, financial measures. These measures exclude the non-cash stock-based compensation and the non-cash impacts of convertible debt amendments, conversions and repayments, effective interest adjustments related to the convertible debt with embedded derivatives and other financings; deferred tax benefit or expense related to the convertible debt and other financings. We believe that these measures can be useful to facilitate comparisons among different companies. These non-GAAP measures have limitations in that the non-GAAP measures we use may not be directly comparable to those reported by other companies. We seek to compensate for this limitation by providing a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures in the table attached to this press release.
