XTI Aerospace, Inc. (INPX)·Q4 2022 Earnings Summary

Executive Summary

  • Reported FY22 revenue of $19.4M (+21% YoY) with 72% gross margin; non‑GAAP Adjusted EBITDA loss narrowed to $(26.6)M as cost reductions took hold .
  • Strategic actions dominated the period: management advanced the spin‑off of the workplace experience/CXApp business (completed March 14, 2023), positioning shareholders to own two separate public companies and refocusing on industrial RTLS growth .
  • Commercial traction continued in RTLS with a >$1M purchase order, Gartner “Leader” recognition, and an SAP partner program entry; however, losses remained significant and included $12.2M non‑cash impairments in 2022 .
  • No quantitative guidance was issued; Wall Street consensus for Q4 2022 EPS/revenue via S&P Global was unavailable, limiting beat/miss analysis (S&P Global data unavailable due to missing mapping).

What Went Well and What Went Wrong

What Went Well

  • “We completed 2022 with a 21% increase in revenue… [and] initiatives to reduce our operating expenses and overhead costs,” underscoring operating discipline amid growth .
  • Strengthening RTLS positioning: recognized as a Leader in Gartner Magic Quadrant for Indoor Location Services; secured a >$1M RTLS purchase order; joined SAP’s partner program, expanding distribution .
  • Strategic portfolio work: progressed and then completed the spin‑off/sale of the workplace experience (CXApp) business, designed to “unlock value” for shareholders via two public companies .

What Went Wrong

  • Profitability remained distant: FY22 net loss attributable to stockholders of $(63.4)M; Adjusted EBITDA loss of $(26.6)M; significant non‑cash impairment charges of $12.2M .
  • Q3 execution headwinds: revenue dipped 6% YoY to $4.18M due to delayed IIoT shipments and lower SAVES sales; gross margin compressed to 70% (from 73%) on mix .
  • Balance sheet contraction: cash and equivalents fell from $52.5M at FY21 to $20.2M at FY22; short‑term debt rose to $13.6M, tightening liquidity flexibility .

Management Commentary

  • CEO: “We completed 2022 with a 21% increase in revenue… [the spin‑off] will allow Inpixon shareholders… to share in the potential upside of an investment in two separate and independent public companies… Moving forward into 2023, we will continue to focus on accelerating the growth of our real‑time location system (RTLS) business” .
  • CFO: “Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022, were $19.4 million… Gross profit… was $13.9 million… Net loss attributable to stockholders… was $63.4 million… Non‑GAAP adjusted EBITDA… was a loss of $26.6 million” .

Q&A Highlights

  • The call functioned as a business update alongside FY22 results; management emphasized strategic portfolio completion (CXApp spin‑off) and the RTLS growth roadmap rather than issuing numeric guidance .
  • Clarifications centered on revenue mix (smart office app vs RTLS) and cost control, with reaffirmation of liquidity (~$20.2M year‑end cash) to support execution .

Estimates Context

  • Wall Street consensus estimates (S&P Global) for Q4 2022 revenue and EPS were unavailable for INPX due to a missing mapping; as a result, beat/miss vs consensus cannot be assessed for the quarter (S&P Global data unavailable).
  • Given the absence of formal guidance and limited coverage, investor models may need to recalibrate around the post‑spin RTLS‑only profile, with attention to order momentum, gross margin stability, and operating expense trajectory .

Key Takeaways for Investors

  • FY22 showed top‑line growth and solid gross margins; however, sustained operating losses and impairments underscore the need for operating leverage and tighter cost control .
  • The CXApp spin‑off structurally simplifies the story and should improve strategic clarity; focus shifts squarely to industrial RTLS execution and go‑to‑market via partners like SAP .
  • Near‑term catalysts include RTLS order wins (e.g., >$1M PO), enterprise deployments, and recognition/partner pipelines; track bookings-to-revenue conversion given prior shipment delays .
  • Liquidity tightened into year‑end ($20.2M cash; higher short-term debt), highlighting the importance of working‑capital discipline and potential need for opportunistic financing if growth accelerates .
  • With no quantitative guidance and unavailable Street consensus, position sizing should reflect execution and funding risks; focus on quarterly evidence of margin stability and Adjusted EBITDA progression .
