CALIX, INC

We fund our operations and investing activities from cash flow generated from our operations as well as the issuance of common stock under our equity incentive plans. As of June 28, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $299.0 million, which consisted of deposits held at banks and major financial institutions and highly liquid marketable securities such as U.S. government and its agency securities, corporate debt securities and commercial paper.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $56.6 million for the six months ended June 28, 2025 and consisted of a net loss of $5.0 million offset by non-cash charges of $50.5 million and cash flow increases of $11.0 million reflected in the net change in assets and liabilities. Non-cash charges primarily consisted of stock-based compensation of $45.4 million and depreciation and amortization of $8.6 million partially offset by deferred income taxes of $1.3 million and the net accretion of available-for-sale securities of $2.1 million.

Cash flow increases resulting from the net change in assets and liabilities primarily consisted of a decrease in accounts receivable of $16.2 million due to the linearity of shipments through the quarter and timing of customer payments, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $13.8 million mainly due to a reduction in our inventory deposits and an increase in accounts payable of $2.3 million due to the timing of inventory receipts. This was partially offset by an increase in inventory of $7.8 million to support increased revenue, a decrease in accrued liabilities of $11.7 million relating to various factors including a decrease in incentive compensation related accruals and a decrease in deferred revenue of $1.7 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $37.0 million for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and consisted of a net loss of $7.9 million offset by non-cash charges of $34.3 million and cash flow increases of $10.6 million reflected in the net change in assets and liabilities. Non-cash charges primarily consisted of stock-based compensation of $32.3 million and depreciation and amortization of $10.0 million partially offset by deferred income taxes of $5.3 million and the net accretion of available-for-sale securities of $2.7 million. Cash flow increases resulting from the net change in assets and liabilities primarily consisted of a decrease in accounts receivable of $44.0 million and inventory of $19.5 million, both in line with our revenue decline. These changes were partially offset by a decrease in accrued liabilities of $28.6 million relating to various factors including a decrease in our liability for components, a decrease in incentive compensation related accruals and the settlement of a legal matter; a decrease in accounts payable of $23.4 million due to decreased inventory purchases; and a decrease in deferred revenue of $7.3 million primarily due to the recognition of previously deferred revenue and a trend to move customers to monthly from annual billing arrangements.

Investing Activity

For the six months ended June 28, 2025, cash provided by investing activities of $25.9 million consisted of net maturities and sales of marketable securities of $33.9 million partially offset by capital expenditures of $8.0 million, consisting primarily of purchases of test and computer equipment.

For the six months ended June 29, 2024, cash used in investing activities of $27.0 million consisted of net purchases of marketable securities of $17.4 million and capital expenditures of $9.7 million, consisting primarily of purchases of test and computer equipment.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities of $49.3 million for the six months ended June 28, 2025 primarily consisted repurchases of our common stock of $73.5 million partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of common stock related to our equity plans of $24.2 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $11.1 million for the six months ended June 29, 2024 primarily consisted of proceeds from the issuance of common stock related to our equity plans of $14.8 million partially offset by repurchases of our common stock of $3.7 million.

Working Capital and Capital Expenditure Needs

Our material cash commitments include non-cancelable firm purchase commitments, normal recurring trade payables, compensation-related and expense accruals, operating leases and revenue-share obligations. We believe that our outsourced approach to manufacturing provides us significant flexibility in both managing inventory levels and financing our inventory. Furthermore, we have a common stock repurchase program, which had $129.4 million available as of June 28, 2025. In April 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a $100.0 million increase to this program. Our stock repurchase program does not require us to purchase a specific number of shares and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time.

We believe, based on our current operating plan and expected operating cash flows, that our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next twelve months. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows or obtain other sources of liquidity, we will be forced to limit or terminate our stock repurchase program, limit our development activities, reduce our investment in growth initiatives and/or institute cost-cutting measures, all of which may adversely impact our business and potential growth.
