SAN DIEGO - Sonim Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:SONM) has reported its ongoing evaluation of potential strategic alternatives to enhance stockholder value. The rugged mobile solutions provider reaffirmed its commitment to this process, which began with the formation of a special committee on January 22, 2025. The announcement comes as the company’s stock has declined over 68% in the past year, currently trading near its 52-week low of $2.00. Despite market speculation, Sonim clarified that no discussions have taken place with Orbic North America, LLC.
The company, which has been serving first responders, government, and Fortune 500 customers since 1999, also announced the completion of additional financing on February 24, 2025. This funding is intended to provide Sonim with the working capital necessary to continue scaling its operations independently. According to InvestingPro data, while the company maintains more cash than debt on its balance sheet, it has been rapidly burning through its cash reserves.
As part of the announcement, Sonim emphasized that no specific transaction or direction has been finalized at this stage. The company’s decision to publicly address the situation appears to be a response to inaccurate market rumors, particularly those suggesting talks with Orbic North America.
