Full transcript - Widepoint C (WYY) Q1 2025:
Operator: Good afternoon. Welcome to WidePoint’s First Quarter twenty twenty five Earnings Conference Call. My name is Kelly, and I will be your operator for today’s call. Joining us for today’s presentation are WidePoint’s President and CEO, Jin Kang Chief Revenue Officer, Jason Holloway and Chief Financial Officer, Robert George.
Following their remarks, we will open up the call for questions from WidePoint’s publishing analysts and major investors. If your questions were not taken today and you would like additional information, please contact WidePoint’s investor relations team at wyygateway grp dot com. Before we begin the call, I would like to provide WidePoint’s Safe Harbor statement that includes cautions regarding forward looking statements made during this call. The matters discussed in this conference call may include forward looking statements regarding future events and the future performance of WidePoint Corporation that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. These risks and uncertainties are described in the company’s Form 10 Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Finally, I would like to remind everyone that this call will be made available for replay via the link in the Investor Relations section of the company’s website at www.widepoint.com. Now I would like to turn the call over to WidePoint’s President and CEO, Mr. Jin Kang. Please go ahead.
Jin Kang, President and CEO, WidePoint: Thank you, operator, and good afternoon, everyone. We appreciate you joining us today to review YPoint’s financial and operational results for the first quarter ended 03/31/2025. Given that we recently held our full year earnings call, today’s discussion will be more concise. Before we dive into the quarterly highlights, I want to briefly address a one time out of period accounting adjustment recorded this quarter. During our first quarter review, we identified and corrected an error related to the timing of revenue recognition on certain reselling contracts.
As a result, we recorded an out of period adjustment, which reduced revenue by approximately 2,700,000.0 and cost of revenue by approximately 2,500,000.0. After a thorough evaluation, we concluded that this adjustment is not material to any previously reported periods and is not expected to be material for the full year 2025. Bob will provide further details on this adjustment along with a broader financial overview later
Robert George, Chief Financial Officer, WidePoint: in
Jin Kang, President and CEO, WidePoint: the call. Turning to operational highlights. As we shared during our recent earnings call, Q1 was marked by two major milestones. First, we achieved FedRAMP authorized status for our ITMS solution, a long anticipated accomplishment. While I won’t go into the technical specifics here, I want to emphasize the significance of this milestone.
It reflects our continued commitment to delivering secure, compliant solutions and clearly differentiates us in the marketplace. With ITMS now listed on the FedRAMP marketplace, our solution is more visible and accessible to a broader range of federal agencies, expanding our pipeline of opportunities. The second milestone was a new task order we were awarded under the Spiral four contract to provide managed mobility services to a combat support agency within the US Department of Defense. As we mentioned previously, this award is a strong indicator of growing momentum under the SPIRO-four contract. Building on that, we’re pleased to report that we received two additional task orders under the SPIRO-four this quarter.
Although combined value of these two awards is less than the initial task order, the increasing level of activity is a positive sign. With many SPIROL three task orders set to expire at the end of this month, we expect a continued uptick in new awards under SPIROL four. Our team remains laser focused on capturing these opportunities, and we are confident we’ll have more to report by the next earnings call. I’ll turn things over to Jason shortly for a deeper dive into the sales pipeline, but I want to reiterate how encouraged we are by our year to date progress. Our device as a service offerings is gaining real traction.
Spyro4 momentum is building, and we are actively pursuing a strong pipeline of opportunities across multiple stages. To position ourselves for success, we plan to invest strategically, including new hires, to ensure we are fully resourced to execute as these opportunities materialize. Bob will provide more details on our planned capital investments shortly. Amid today’s political dynamics and ongoing economic uncertainty, WidePoint remains aligned with federal government’s current focus on reducing waste, fraud, and abuse. Our mission, helping agencies lower costs while improving efficiency, is well matched with these priorities.
We are actively working with key stakeholders to increase awareness of our solutions within the current administration, including efforts with Doge. While we remain cautiously optimistic, we see this alignment as a potential tailwind for our business. It’s worth noting that while some government agencies have faced budget constraints, others such as DHS and DoD have received increases with DoD securing its largest budget to date. WidePoint’s value proposition has consistently resonated with these agencies, and we believe our offerings will remain essential even in today’s environment. Before we get into our guidance, I’d like to revisit our four strategic priorities we have outlined last quarter.
One, deepen our relationship with existing partners while building new ones. Our device as a service initiative is a strong example of this action. Two, prepare for the upcoming DHS CWMS three point zero recompete. We continue to believe we’re best positioned to win this contract again. Three, commercialize our new solutions, MobileAnchor and M365 Analyzer.
And four, deliver positive earnings per share for 2025, which remains a key focus given our current momentum. With that in mind, here is our guidance for 2025. Revenue, dollars 154,000,000 to $163,000,000 Adjusted EBITDA, 2,800,000.0 to $3,000,000 Free cash flow, 2,400,000.0 to 2,600,000.0 And as noted, our goal remains achieving positive earnings per share this year. We remain confident in our outlook and are fully committed to delivering long term value for our shareholders. With that, I’ll now turn the call over to Jason to walk you through our sales pipeline and upcoming opportunities.
Jason?
Jason Holloway, Chief Revenue Officer, WidePoint: Thanks, Jin, and good afternoon, everyone. Despite the ongoing economic uncertainty, our sales pipeline continues to remain robust with many exciting opportunities in development. As Jen noted, we were awarded two additional task orders under the Spiral four contract this quarter, a positive indicator of continued momentum across this contract vehicle. Beyond these recent wins, we currently have several task orders in development and have already submitted multiple responses to active RFQs. I remain confident that we’ll have more task order announcements to share throughout the second and third quarters.
To support this anticipated momentum, we are strategically expanding our internal team dedicated to the SPIROL4 initiative. These hires reflect our ongoing commitment and strong confidence in our ability to secure and execute meaningful work through this contract vehicle in the years ahead. We are also actively engaging with key political insiders to raise awareness of White Point’s capabilities and service offerings, which are closely aligned with the priorities and mission of Doge. These efforts are part of a broader strategy to position WidePoint as a valuable partner in advancing the current administration’s objectives, which we began over a decade ago. We continue to remain cautiously optimistic that these relationships will generate positive momentum and strategic advantage for WidePoint over the long term.
Shifting to our Device as a Service program, we continue to see strong and sustained momentum as interest and engagement continue to grow. In preparation for this opportunity, similar to SPIREL four, we are strategically investing additional resources to ensure we are well positioned for success. This includes the establishment of the dedicated DAS facility and the onboarding of new personnel to support anticipated demand. In parallel, we are working closely with our strategic partners to actively advance the opportunities that are currently in our pipeline. Together, we are focused on converting these prospects into tangible outcomes and accelerating progress toward full program execution.
Across our Smart City initiative, we are seeing several promising developments beginning to take shape. This opportunity originated from one of our key governmental partners. Our ongoing work in the Smart City initiative with 22Vets to deliver non federal smart card credentials demonstrates strong alignment with broader global efforts. On this front, we have already been awarded a contract for a pilot project with a global energy conglomerate to provide credentialing support for their internal elevated privileged users. The synergies between our approach and the priorities of other countries and entities clearly show the relevance and scalability of our solution.
While we are not in a position to disclose specific details at this time, we are encouraged by the direction of these discussions and anticipate having meaningful updates to share later this year. Another major initiative on the horizon for WidePoint is an upcoming partnership opportunity with a prominent satellite company in support of a global initiative. This effort represents a multifaceted engagement that leverages several of our key offerings. At the core of this opportunity is our Intelligent Technology Management System, or ITMS, which will provide advanced capabilities for managing deployed satellite related assets while also integrating our PKI based identity and access management. We are actively working alongside our chief strategist of government efficiency in cybersecurity to cultivate new strategic partnerships to bring this initiative to fruition.
I look forward to providing further substantive updates on this scalable opportunity in the months ahead. As we highlighted during last quarter’s call, leveraging strategic partnerships has been a core priority for us in 2025. The opportunities I’ve mentioned thus far represent just a portion of the broader potential we are seeing across the board. WidePoint’s strong reputation built on a track record of successful execution and trusted relationships with many of our valued clients continues to open doors for new engagements. This demonstrated credibility continues to encourage our partners to pursue additional collaborative ventures with us.
This is precisely why we’ve made it a priority to deepen our engagement with existing partners while also cultivating new partnerships that can further expand our reach and output. These partnerships remain critical to our long term growth strategy and our ability to deliver innovative solutions at scale. WidePoint will continue to invest in our sales and marketing capabilities to build on the measurable success we’ve achieved since making this a strategic focus. These investments have proven to be instrumental in driving visibility, engagement, and growth across our core markets. Looking ahead, we see a bright future filled with compelling opportunities on the horizon.
Strategic partnerships will continue to play a central role in our forward momentum, and we are already beginning to see meaningful early returns from these collaborative efforts. As these initiatives mature, I look forward to sharing more substantive updates in the months ahead. With that, I will now turn the call over to Bob to discuss our financial results. Bob?
Robert George, Chief Financial Officer, WidePoint: Thanks, Jason, and thanks to everyone for joining us today. Before I share the details of our financial results for the first quarter, I will add some color to the out of period adjustment Jen mentioned earlier. During the quarter ended 03/31/2025, we recorded an out of period adjustment related to a correction in our revenue accounting for some of our reselling contracts. Specifically, the adjustment resulted in a decrease to revenues of $2,700,000 and a corresponding decrease to cost of revenues of 2,500,000.0 The net impact to gross profit was modest at $233,000 The error stemmed from the timing of revenue recognition under the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification Number six zero six, or ASC six zero six, for certain reselling transactions that were incorrectly recognized as revenue in a prior period. Upon discovery, we conducted a comprehensive quantitative and qualitative materiality analysis in accordance with SEC guidance and concluded that the error was not material to any previously issued interim or annual financial statements.
Further, we do not expect this correction to be material to our full year ’twenty five results either. It’s important to note that this adjustment does not reflect any change in business fundamentals, cash flows, or contract performance. We remain confident in the integrity of our revenue recognition processes and have implemented additional controls to prevent future recurrences. With that, I’ll now move on to the broader financial performance for the quarter. Total revenue for the quarter was $34,200,000 remaining in line compared to the same quarter last year.
I’ll now provide a further breakdown of our first quarter revenue. Our carrier services revenue for the quarter was $22,400,000 an increase of $3,000,000 compared to the same period in 2024. The increase is a result of growth in the number of lines under management for our DHS customer. Our managed services fees for the quarter were 9,300,000.0, an increase of 564,000 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to a new federal end customer, which began in September 2024.
Billable services fees for the quarter were 1,800,000.0, an increase of 591,000 compared with the same period in 2024. Reselling and other services in the first quarter was 789,000, a decrease of 4,200,000.0 from the same period last year. Dollars 2,700,000.0 of the decrease was due to the out of period adjustment, and the remainder of that decrease was due to the new accounting treatment of certain reselling transactions I mentioned earlier. Our federal contract backlog as of 03/31/2025 stood at $268,000,000 Gross profit for the first quarter was $4,800,000 or 14% of revenues compared to $4,700,000 or 14% of revenues in the same period in 2024. The more meaningful metric of gross profit percentage excluding carrier services increased to 40% in the first quarter compared to 32% in the same period last year.
The increase was driven by lower reselling revenues, which have relatively lower gross margins. Our gross profit percentage will vary from period to period based on our revenue mix. Sales and marketing expense for the first quarter was $600,000 or 2% of revenues and remained relatively constant with the same period last year. We expect to see further dollar increases here as we continue to invest in sales and marketing efforts, though we expect sales and marketing to be lower as a percentage of revenue in the future. General and administrative expenses in the first quarter were 4,700,000 or 13% of revenues compared to $4,400,000 or 13% of revenues in the same period last year.
The dollar increase primarily relates to inflationary pressures, which were partially offset by less share based compensation expense in the quarter. We expect general and administrative expenses to increase as our business grows, but remain constant or lower as a percentage of revenue. Net loss for the first quarter was $724,000 or a loss of $08 per share compared to a net loss of $653,000 or a loss of $07 per share for the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA, a non GAAP measure, for the first quarter was $92,400 and free cash flow for the quarter, which we define as adjusted EBITDA minus capital investments, was 65,700 representing our thirty first consecutive quarter of adjusted EBITDA positive and sixth consecutive quarter of positive free cash flow. And note on CapEx, we plan to increase our capital investments by approximately $500,000 for the year to support strategic priorities.
This includes funding for our device as a service program, which includes the lease of our new dedicated facility and associated infrastructure, A phased technical refresh of portions of WidePoint’s IT environment strengthened our cybersecurity posture. And lastly, we are allocating capital to enhance our product development environment to ensure continued innovation. Moving to the balance sheet, we ended the quarter with $3,700,000 in cash. The difference in our cash balance compared to year end was primarily due to an issue with one of our major customers who has presented administrative challenges in improving our invoices. We are continuing to work through the issue to allow us to bill time later and increase our cash generated from operations, but it could be a couple of quarters to reach resolution.
We also have additional liquidity options available with our revolving line of credit facility, which provides us $4,000,000 of potential borrowing capacity, although we do not anticipate having to rely on this facility. This completes my financial summary. For a more detailed analysis of our financial results, please refer to our Form 10 Q, which was filed prior to this call. We will now take questions from our analysts and major shareholders. Operator, will you please open the line for questions?
Operator: Certainly. The floor is now open for questions. If you have any questions or comments, please press star one on your phone at this time. We ask that while posing your question, you please pick up your handset if listening on a speakerphone to provide optimum sound quality. Please hold just a few moments while we poll for any questions.
Your first question is coming from Barry Syam with Litchfield Hills Research. Please pose your question. Your line is live.
Barry Syam, Analyst, Litchfield Hills Research: Good afternoon, everybody. First question, guess, for Bob on that accounting adjustment. So am I correct that if we look at the reported numbers for the quarter, we should gross up revenue by 2.7%, gross up EBITDA by about $200,000 to understand what you actually did in the quarter. Is that fair?
Robert George, Chief Financial Officer, WidePoint: That’s correct. Yes.
Barry Syam, Analyst, Litchfield Hills Research: And because this is a out of period adjustment, I’m assuming you’ve earned the money, but you recognize it in the wrong period. So so it was recognized last year and you’re just reversing it in the first quarter, but you’re not receiving last year. Is that correct?
Robert George, Chief Financial Officer, WidePoint: That’s correct. And
Barry Syam, Analyst, Litchfield Hills Research: will that have any impact on results for the rest of this year? Does that revenue show back up in the rest of this year?
Robert George, Chief Financial Officer, WidePoint: No. The out of period adjustment is only in this period. The change in how we accounted for some of our reselling contracts will have an effect of recognizing revenue over the full term, which is twelve months, so there’s a slight degrading of revenue in 2025 based on the fact that we won’t be able to get all of that revenue in 2025.
Barry Syam, Analyst, Litchfield Hills Research: And then it’ll also impact the growth rate for this year because last year the revenue was effectively too high. This year you’re lowering it. So if I just if I just look at the growth rates and GAAP revenue from last year or whenever you report this year, that number is going to be artificially low because of the adjustment. Is that correct?
Robert George, Chief Financial Officer, WidePoint: Slightly, yeah. There’s a spillover effect from last year’s correction and then of course there’s this push out, I’ll call it a push out effect of accounting for it to new way, it will be slightly lower.
Barry Syam, Analyst, Litchfield Hills Research: And then shifting gears in terms of your major contracts, So CWMS is going well. The big news there obviously is going to be the recompete. You’re very optimistic about that. Any news on the timeline on the recompete?
Jin Kang, President and CEO, WidePoint: Yeah, thank you for that, know, Barry. It’s always a pleasure to speak with you. We can’t say for sure when the recompete will happen, but we did receive and responded to an RFI in July of last year, as you know. The CWMS period of performance ends at the November year. So we think that the recompete will be conducted this year, with the award to be made prior to the expiration of the current contract in November.
That’s kind of what we’re seeing. And we still strongly believe that we are in the best position to re win this contract because our past performance, we received high marks on all of our CPARS rating, which is the contractors performance assessment reporting system. Our capabilities and subject matter expertise, processes and procedures that have been customized to meet DHS’s requirements. DHS workflows have all been configured into our system. So, there isn’t any rework there that needs to happen.
You know, our systems are integrated in with all of their systems. So in order to replicate all of that, that will be very difficult to do and expensive. And, know, of course, our, you know, authorization to operate and our fed REM authorized status now, that ensures that we meet all of the federal cyber security requirements for data protection. We feel pretty strong, we feel good, but this is all hands on deck and we’re not resting on our laurels. We’re going to continue to execute on our contracts and continue to get good ratings on our CPAR ratings.
Barry Syam, Analyst, Litchfield Hills Research: And if they fail to get the recompete done by November 2025, they have multiple ways to continue to use you and pay you and I think they’ve used those in the past. So investors shouldn’t expect that the revenue just drops off on that, correct?
Jin Kang, President and CEO, WidePoint: That is absolutely correct. I mean, now, as it stands, we have contracts that go out until task orders that go out until end of twenty twenty six, November of ’20 ’20 ’6. So even if they fail to make an award this year, we have contracts that go out twelve months from the end of the current contract, which is November 2026. They could also extend the contract, for another, you know, period of time, another twelve months, another, you know, twenty four months. They’ve done that before, and they can also add money to the contract cap so that they don’t run out of money under the contract.
So there are many ways to do this. So, you know, won’t fall off a cliff or the revenues won’t fall off a cliff because they didn’t reward the contract when the contract ends in November of this year.
Barry Syam, Analyst, Litchfield Hills Research: And on SPIROL four, there’s a lot of moving pieces, all good, but I’m having a hard time keeping my scorecard straight. So is that your second largest contract? And what has been the total amount of orders that you or task orders you’ve received to date on spiral four?
Jin Kang, President and CEO, WidePoint: Sure. Spiral four has a $2,700,000,000 contract value. I’m not saying that we’re going to capture all of it, but that by contract cap is the largest that we’ve won. But DHS is still the lion’s share of our revenues. In terms of task orders that we captured under SPIROL four is that we announced the first one, which was a 2,500,000.0 base year contract with nine options, which ends up a total of ten years, with a total contract value of roughly $25,225,000,000.
And then we won two additional contracts, with modest value and, each, both of these contracts totaled, and if all of the options are exercised would amount to something like 500 ks, for a contract period of roughly five years. And so, these are relatively small and modest task orders, but the good news is that it shows our supposition that our capabilities and our product sets are differentiated from our competitors who are all carriers. And so we feel pretty good and contracts are SPIROL three task orders are expiring. A lot of them are expiring in May and June. So we should see more activities as we head into June.
And we already have several RFQs responses that we’ve responded to. So hopefully we’ll be able to announce more awards in the coming months.
Barry Syam, Analyst, Litchfield Hills Research: And just my last question, to clarify on one of the numbers you gave out there, Jin. Dollars two point seven billion value, I think you were one of, what, six, winners, for that contract in total. So if anything, that 2.7 would be divvied up among all the winners of that contract platform.
Jin Kang, President and CEO, WidePoint: Yes, I mean, if just looked across it, but it’s hard to say who’s going to get what task orders underneath the contract. So at the end of the contract period, there will be a sort of a tally and they’ll announce how much of the contract was captured by what, you know, contract or so. Hopefully we’re, you know, on the top of that list, but, you know, we can’t say, you know, right now whether you would divide that equally with all of the winners.
Barry Syam, Analyst, Litchfield Hills Research: Well, 2,700,000,000.0 even if you’re on the bottom of the list, that’s pretty darn good.
Jin Kang, President and CEO, WidePoint: Yes, I agree. I agree.
Scott Buck, Analyst, H.C. Wainwright: Okay. Alright. Thank you very much. Thank you, Barry.
Operator: Your next question is coming from Scott Buck with H. C. Wainwright. Please post your question. Your line is live.
Scott Buck, Analyst, H.C. Wainwright: Hi, good afternoon, guys. Thanks for taking my questions. Apologies if I missed this earlier. I’ve been jumping back and forth between calls. Jen, the difference between the high end and the low end of the guidance range for the year, does that just come down to timing?
And there some additional spiral for task orders in the guide?
Jin Kang, President and CEO, WidePoint: I would say it is definitely on the timing issue because we have our sales pipeline and then we have P wins. Certainly, there’s the potential for us to do better, like we did in 2024. Of course, the reverse is true, but we’re pretty confident, in the guidance that we’re providing that we will be, within the range and potentially, do better. We hope to do better, but we don’t want to mislead our investors by putting some large target out there.
Scott Buck, Analyst, H.C. Wainwright: Yep. No, that makes sense. And then I wanted to ask about the partnership effort. You initially brought it up on the fourth quarter call and it’s a priority point, I guess, again on this call. Can you help me understand how long it takes to kind of put those partnerships together and maybe timing around when some of the information exchange actually happens?
Just trying to get a sense of when we could see the benefits of these actions.
Jin Kang, President and CEO, WidePoint: Yeah, so a lot of the strategic relationship we’ve already consummated with our strategic partners and systems integrators partners. I think the big thing is that we are going after large opportunities with these partners. You may recall that we had partnered with CDW to win the decennial census for 2020, and we’re probably going to be doing the same thing in 02/1930. And so very similar to those type of relationship, we have already consummated partnership with these large integrators. And we have a number of material contracts in our sales pipeline, and specifically in the device as a service.
And these are fairly large opportunities, and depending on when those opportunities happen, could push our financial performance either higher. The longer it takes us to close those deals, we’ll make our guidance our performance deteriorate.
Scott Buck, Analyst, H.C. Wainwright: Great. I appreciate the color there. And then, obviously, guys have a tremendous amount of momentum on the government side. But just kind of curious if I could get a little more color on where the opportunities are, where the commercial opportunities are and, maybe what kind of resources you have to allocate towards those opportunities?
Jin Kang, President and CEO, WidePoint: Sure. There’s a lot of opportunities on the commercial side. For the device as a service, where we’re making, some, capital investments, in terms of our device as a service and the warehouse and the logistics centers that we are, setting up, there’s some material opportunities there, and they are all commercial opportunities. And then, of course, you heard Jason talk a little bit about, the opportunities we have in the direct to consumer and in the mobility of
Scott Buck, Analyst, H.C. Wainwright: the
Jin Kang, President and CEO, WidePoint: satellite sectors, and those are all opportunities in the commercial side. And I would say the opportunities that we currently have, in the sales pipeline, majority of it is our commercial, opportunities that we’re chasing.
Scott Buck, Analyst, H.C. Wainwright: Perfect, that’s helpful. Appreciate the added color guys. Thank you very much.
Jin Kang, President and CEO, WidePoint: Great, thank you Scott.
