-Five new products introduced in Q1 2025- -Year-over-Year Cost Reductions Reflect Continued Benefits of Cost Optimization Initiatives- SALT LAKE CITY, May 19, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ClearOne (NASDAQ: CLRO), a global provider of audio and visual communication solutions, reported financial results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025. In Q1 2025, ClearOne introduced five new products demonstrating continued commitment to meeting customer needs through innovation. One of those new products, the BMA 360DX, won a Best of Show award at the Integrated Systems Europe 2025 Exhibition in Barcelona, Spain. Revenue decreased 36% year over year, primarily due to a significant decrease in revenues from the audio conferencing category, which includes our DSP products. "We believe this year over year revenue decline was primarily due to the cumulative impact of past production shortages," said Derek Graham, CEO of ClearOne. Over the previous two quarters, Q3 2024 and Q4 2024, ClearOne generated sequential increases in revenue compared to Q2 2024. However, in Q1 2025, we were unable to maintain an uninterrupted flow of inventory from our contract manufacturers and suppliers due to insufficient cash on hand. This issue negatively affected new products that we introduced in Q1 2025 as well as older products with consistent demand. In February, 2025, we secured a $1 million investment from Edward Bagley, which allowed us to restart some product inventory purchases. Our work through early 2025 has focused on mitigating the impacts of production shortages through maintaining consistent dialogues, product demonstrations, and feedback cycles with end users and channel partners, along with improving our visibility at key industry events. In addition, we have maintained our investments in marketing to ensure the visibility of our products to end users looking for ways to improve the quality of audio and video for their meetings. On March 27, 2025, ClearOne entered into an agreement with RBW Capital Partners LLC and Dawson James Securities, Inc. to assist the Company with capital raising efforts and the sale of the Company by way of a negotiated merger or consolidation, including a reverse merger, the negotiated sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, the sale, via negotiated tender offer, of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of stock, or a spin-...

- Full Year 2024 Operating Expenses decreased 9.8% vs prior year - - Q4 Revenue and Q4 Gross Margin increased 18.1% and 44.8%, respectively, vs. prior quarter - SALT LAKE CITY, March 31, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ClearOne (NASDAQ: CLRO), a global provider of audio and visual communication solutions, reported financial results for the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2024. "Throughout the fourth quarter, we maintained efforts to expand and accelerate shipments of our award-winning communication solutions, all while driving a leaner, more efficient cost structure," said Derek Graham, CEO of ClearOne. "We delivered strong momentum in the fourth quarter of 2024 with revenue increasing 18.1% sequentially compared to Q3 2024. Gross margins also improved meaningfully, rising 44.8% from the prior quarter, reflecting continued operational discipline. For the full year 2024, we reduced operating expenses by 9.8% year-over-year, underscoring our commitment to cost optimization and financial efficiency. We closed 2024 with a solid liquidity position, ending the year with over $1.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, and no secured debt." Our full-year top-line performance reflects slower order flow compared to the previous year, which we believe stems from the cumulative impact of past production shortages. We have also faced sales headwinds from our products’ lack of Microsoft Teams certification, despite their longtime functional compatibility with this platform. Our work through early 2025 has focused on mitigating these impacts through introduction of new products that meet the needs of an evolving communication environment, maintaining consistent dialogues, product demonstrations, and feedback cycles with customers and distributors, and improving our visibility at key industry events.
