Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results
NOVEMBER 12, 2024
Telos Corporation Reports $23.8 Million of Revenue, 13.2% GAAP Gross Margin, and 44.0% Cash Gross Margin; Forecasts Sequential Revenue Growth in 4Q 2024 and Significant Year-Over-Year Revenue Growth in 2025
Third Quarter Financial Summary
Delivered $23.8 million of revenue, including $18.3 million or 77% from Security Solutions and $5.5 million or 23% from Secure Networks
Security Solutions delivered sequential revenue growth driven by the accelerating ramp of TSA PreCheck® enrollment locations; Expanded network of enrollment centers to 173 locations; Expect to reach 500 locations in 2025
Assessed cost structure and investment priorities during the third quarter; Implemented a restructuring plan to eliminate cost and reallocate resources to high-growth programs in Security Solutions; Discontinued the development and/or sale of selected solutions or parts of solutions that were not generating acceptable returns
Restructuring and assessment of intangible assets resulted in an $11.7 million non-cash impairment of capitalized software assets (including $5.3 million in cost of sales), and a $1.4 million restructuring charge (including $0.4 million in cost of sales)
Generated 13.2% GAAP gross margin; Excluding $5.7 million of impairment and restructuring charges in cost of sales, gross margin was 37.3% and above the top end of the guidance range
Cash gross margin was 44.0%, representing the highest quarterly cash gross margin since the Company’s IPO in 2020
GAAP net loss was $28.1 million; Adjusted EBITDA loss was $4.1 million and above the top end of the guidance range
Cash flow from operations and free cash flow both improved sequentially
Outlook
Fourth Quarter Guidance: Revenues of $24.5 million - $26.5 million, representing 3% - 11% sequential revenue growth; Adjusted EBITDA loss of $4.5 million to $3.5 million1
Expecting significant year-over-year revenue growth in 2025 primarily due to large programs ramping in Security Solutions

1Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company has not provided a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure to this forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure because certain items are out of the Company’s control or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA is not available without unreasonable effort.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements which are made under the safe harbor provisions of the federal securities laws. These statements are based on the Company’s management’s current beliefs, expectations and assumptions about future events, conditions, and results and on information currently available to them. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. The Company believes that these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” set forth from time to time in the Company’s filings and reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, as well as future filings and reports by the Company, copies of which are available at https://investors.telos.com and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
Although the Company bases these forward-looking statements on assumptions that its management believes are reasonable when made, the Company cautions the reader that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that the Company’s actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and industry developments may differ materially from statements made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this release. Given these risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are beyond its control, the Company cautions the reader not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of such statement and, except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement publicly, or to revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or developments occurring after the date of the statement, even if new information becomes available in the future. Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless specifically expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we believe the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted Earnings Per Share ("EPS"), Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Cash Gross Profit, Cash Gross Margin and Free Cash Flow are useful in evaluating our operating and cash flow performance. We believe that this non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively with our GAAP results, may be helpful to readers of our financial statements because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance and assists in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP financial information to supplement their GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly-titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. A reconciliation is provided below for each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP.

Telos believes that EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted EPS provide the Board of Directors, management and investors with a clear representation of the Company’s core operating performance and trends, provide greater visibility into the long-term financial performance of the Company, and eliminate the impact of items that do not relate to the ongoing operating performance of the business. Further, Adjusted EBITDA is used by the Board of Directors and management to prepare and approve the Company’s annual budget, and to evaluate the performance of certain management personnel when determining incentive compensation. Adjusted Gross Profit, Cash Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin and Cash Gross Margin provide management and investors a clear representation of the core economics of gross profit and gross margin without the impact of non-cash expenses and sunk costs expended. Telos uses Free Cash Flow to understand the cash flows that directly correspond with our operations and the investments the Company must make in those operations, using a methodology that combines operating cash flows and capital expenditures. Further, Free Cash Flow may be useful to management and investors in evaluating the Company's operating and cash flow performance and liquidity, and to evaluate the performance of certain management personnel when determining incentive compensation. Telos believes these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate the comparison of the Company’s operating and cash performance on a consistent basis between periods by excluding certain items that may, or could, have a disproportionately positive or negative impact on the Company’s results of operations in any particular period. When viewed in combination with the Company’s results prepared in accordance with GAAP, these non-GAAP financial measures help provide a broader picture of factors and trends affecting the Company’s results of operations.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Cash Gross Profit, Cash Gross Margin, and Free Cash Flow are supplemental measures of operating and cash flow performance that are not made under GAAP and do not represent, and should not be considered as an alternative to gross profit, gross margin, net (loss) income, earnings per share or net cash flows (used in) provided by operating activities, as determined by GAAP.
The Company defines EBITDA as net (loss) income, adjusted for non-operating (income) expense, interest expense, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, impairment loss on intangible assets, and restructuring expenses (adjustments). The Company defines EBITDA Margin, as EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue. The Company defines Adjusted Loss as net (loss) income, adjusted for non-operating (income) expense, stock-based compensation expense, impairment loss on intangible assets, and restructuring expenses (adjustments). The Company defines Adjusted EPS as Adjusted Net Loss divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The Company defines Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit, plus stock-based compensation expense, impairment loss on intangible assets, restructuring expenses, as well as non-recurring items charged under cost of sales. The Company defines Adjusted Gross Margin as a Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of total revenue. The Company defines Cash Gross Profit as Adjusted Gross Profit, plus depreciation and amortization. The Company defines Cash Gross Margin as Cash Gross Profit as a percentage of total revenue. Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash (used in) provided by operating activities, less net purchases of property and equipment, and capitalized software development costs.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Cash Gross Profit, Cash Gross Margin, and Free Cash Flow each has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider any of them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of results as reported under GAAP. Among other limitations, each of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Cash Gross Profit, Cash Gross Margin, and Free Cash Flow does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments, does not reflect the impact of certain cash and non-cash charges resulting from matters considered not to be indicative of ongoing operations, and does not reflect income tax expense or benefit. Other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Cash Gross Profit, Cash Gross Margin, and Free Cash Flow differently than Telos does, which limits its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, neither EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Cash Gross Profit, Cash Gross Margin nor Free Cash Flow should be considered as a replacement for gross profit, gross margin, net (loss) income, earnings per share, or net cash flows (used in) provided by operating activities, as determined by GAAP, or as a measure of profitability. Telos compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on the Company’s GAAP results and using non-GAAP measures only for supplemental purposes.
