("WiLAN") subsidiary, a leader in Intellectual Property licensing, announces its financial results for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022. All financial information in this press release is reported in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

"With the benefit of a pick-up in implementation activity, our ITS business delivered solid sequential growth in Q3 with revenue increasing 8% from Q2 and Adjusted EBITDA increasing to $1.9 million from negative $4.5 million," said Bret Kidd, CEO of Quarterhill. "The environment for implementation activity improved in Q3, though certain factors, such as labour scarcity and shifting customer priorities, continue to have some impact on the pace of certain project roll-outs and inflationary conditions are putting upward pressure on costs for some materials. While these market conditions have persisted into Q4, we expect to continue to make progress on our implementation activity in the current quarter, which we believe will result in sequential top-line growth though inflationary pressures are expected to lead to flat-to-modestly-higher Adjusted EBITDA."
"Looking out to 2023, we expect to grow both our top-line and expand our Adjusted EBITDA margin. With a solid base of contracted revenue in place for 2023, a sales pipeline valued in the billions and the potential for follow-on orders from existing customers, we believe we have good visibility into next year. 2023 will see the continuation of a significant level of implementation business, with some projects likely to convert to the higher margin operations phase later in the year and we expect to increase the number of new projects that we bid on during the year to further lay the foundation for future growth. We also continue to make progress on integrating areas of our ITS businesses and expect to realize further strategic and cost benefits from these actions in 2023."
Mr. Kidd continued: "WiLAN's results in Q3 reflect the variability in the patent licensing business model. When viewed over a longer time horizon, the business has a track record for generating strong cash flows and its positive results year-to-date in 2022 further reinforce that reputation. Subsequent to quarter-end, WiLAN signed a license agreement with Micron, which will be reflected in its Q4 results."
"The strategic review for WiLAN continues to progress and follow the customary steps in such a process, and we will update shareholders accordingly as material developments occur."
Approval of Eligible Dividend
The Board of Directors has declared an eligible quarterly dividend of $0.0125 per common share payable on January 9, 2023, to shareholders of record on December 9, 2022.
Q3 Fiscal 2022 Financial Review
Quarterhill's revenue is broadly segmented into ITS, reflecting the IRD and ETC businesses, and Licensing, reflecting the WiLAN business. ETC was acquired September 1, 2021 and as a result, the comparative financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 include only one month of results from ETC.
Quarterhill's Management's Discussion and Analysis and financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 ("Q3 2022" and "2022 year-to-date") are available at the Company's website and at its profile at SEDAR.
Consolidated revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, were $42.4 million and $254.8 million, compared to $36.3 million and $74.5 million in the same periods of the prior year. ITS revenue has increased in 2022 due primarily to the acquisition of ETC in September 2021. The majority of WiLAN's licenses are generally one-time in nature and significant fluctuations in revenue, gross margin, and Adjusted EBITDA can result when the volume or dollar value of licenses changes from one period to the next. WiLAN's revenue was lower in Q3 2022 than in the prior year quarter but increased significantly in the 2022 year-to-date period compared to the same period last year.
Gross margin percent2 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was 21% and 42%, compared to 42% and 34% in the same periods of the prior year. Gross margin in the ITS segment was 27% in Q3 2022 compared to 37% in Q3 2021. ITS margins reflect the addition of the ETC business and may fluctuate on a quarterly basis depending primarily on the nature, and stage, of projects underway during the period, their related margin profile and the timing for which associated costs and revenue are recognized. Licensing gross margin in the quarter was negative compared to positive gross margin in the prior year period due to a greater level of licensing activity in Q3 2021. For the 2022 year-to-date period, licensing gross margin was 58% compared to 24% in the same period last year due to more significant licensing activity occurring earlier in 2022. Licensing gross margin will fluctuate depending primarily on the level of litigation and contingent legal and partner costs incurred in a respective period relative to revenue generated.
Operating expenses include selling, general and administrative costs ("SG&A"), research and development costs ("R&D"), depreciation and amortization and other charges. Operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, were $21.4 million and $80.6 million, compared to $19.1 million and $43.8 million in the same periods of the prior year. Operating expenses for the 2022 year-to-date period include a one-time $14.6 million charge to settle litigation and arbitration disputes with the former owners of VIZIYA. Operating expenses increased in the Q3 2022 and 2022 year-to-date periods due primarily to the addition of expenses from the acquisition of ETC in September 2021 as well as inflationary pressures on materials and personnel experienced in 2022.
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA1 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was ($2.7) million and $67.0 million, compared to $7.6 million and $4.1 million in the same periods of the prior year. ITS Adjusted EBITDA in Q3 2022 was $1.9 million compared to $4.5 million in Q3 2021. Q3 2022 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA decreased due primarily to a lower level of contract activity in the licensing business as well as a greater portion of ITS revenue coming from implementation-stage projects where a lower gross margin is generated at that phase of the project, lower revenue due to some continued delays on certain ITS projects and the higher cost of materials and personnel in the current inflationary environment. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA1 for the 2022 year-to-date period increased year-over-year due to the strong performance in Q1 2022 from the licensing business.
Net income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was ($9.7) million, or ($0.08) per diluted share, and $22.9 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to ($2.0) million, or ($0.02) per diluted share, and ($12.7) million, or ($0.11) per diluted share, in the same periods of the prior year.
Cash generated from (used in) operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was ($26.9) million and $41.3 million, compared to ($10.9) million and ($15.0) million in the same periods of the prior year. Cash used in operations in Q3 2022 included a $14.6 million payment to settle litigation and arbitration disputes with the former owners of VIZIYA. The Company's Q3 2022 cash used in financing activities included a $20.8 million repayment of its long-term debt, bringing total long-term debt repayments made in the 2022 year-to-date period to $35.3 million.
Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were $76.0 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $72.6 million at December 31, 2021. Working capital at September 30, 2022, was $112.8 million compared to $105.1 million at December 31, 2021.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Non-IFRS Ratios
Quarterhill uses both IFRS and certain non-IFRS financial measures to assess performance. Non-IFRS financial measures are financial measures disclosed by a company that (a) depict historical or expected future financial performance, financial position or cash flow of a company, (b) with respect to their composition, exclude amounts that are included in, or include amounts that are excluded from the composition of the most directly comparable financial measure disclosed in the primary financial statements of the company, (c) are not disclosed in the financial statements of the company and (d) are not a ratio, fraction, percentage or similar representation. Non-IFRS ratios are financial measures disclosed by a company that are in the form of a ratio, fraction, percentage or similar representation that has a non-IFRS financial measure as one or more of its components, and that are not disclosed in the financial statements of the company.
These non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios are not standardized financial measures under IFRS, and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar financial measures presented by other companies. Management believes these non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios provide transparent and useful supplemental information to help investors evaluate our financial performance, financial condition, and liquidity using the same measures as management. These non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.
Adjusted EBITDA - Non-IFRS Financial Measures
We use the non-IFRS financial measure "Adjusted EBITDA" to mean net (loss) income adjusted for (i) income taxes, (ii) finance expense or income; (iii) amortization and impairment of intangibles; (iv) other charges and other on-time items; (v) depreciation of right-of-use assets and property, plant and equipment; (vi) stock-based compensation; (vii) foreign exchange (gain) loss; and (viii) other income which includes equity in earnings from joint ventures, and (ix) dividends received from joint ventures. Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management to assess our normalized cash generated on a consolidated basis and in our operating segments. Adjusted EBITDA is also a performance measure that may be used by investors to analyze the cash generated by Quarterhill and our operating segments. Adjusted EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to net loss and cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with IFRS or as measure of liquidity. The most directly comparable IFRS financial measure is Net (loss) income.
Adjusted EBITDA per share – Non-IFRS ratio
Adjusted EBITDA per share is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by the basic weighted average of common shares. Adjusted EBITDA per share is used by our management and investors to analyze cash generated by Quarterhill on a per share basis. The most comparable IFRS measure is earnings per share.
Backlog - Non-IFRS Financial Measures
We use the non-IFRS measure "backlog" to mean the total value of work that has not yet been completed but that in management's experience of similar situations has: (a) a high certainty of being performed pursuant to existing contracts or work orders specifying job scope, value and timing; (b) an expectation of expansion of existing contracts due to expected extensions; and/or (c) been awarded to one or more of our ITS operating subsidiaries as evidenced by a binding contract or where the finalization of a binding contract is reasonably assured. Activities under such contracts may cover a period of up to 15 years. We do not include in "backlog", the value of any expected but unsigned change orders that management considers may apply to such contracts.
Supplementary Financial Measures
Supplementary financial measures are financial measures disclosed by a company that (a) are, or are intended to be, disclosed on a periodic basis to depict the historical or expected future financial performance, financial position or cash flow of a company (b) are not disclosed in the financial statement of the company, (c) are not non-IFRS financial measures, and (d) are not non-IFRS ratios.
Key supplementary measures disclosed are as follows:
Gross margin %
Calculated as gross profit as a percentage of revenue.
Working capital
Calculated as total current assets minus total current liabilities.
