Highlights of Third Quarter Results
Current report
On October 30, 2026, Alarm.com Incorporated, one of our wholly owned subsidiaries, acquired 100% of the membership interests of Gouldin Technologies, LLC, or CellGate. CellGate provides cellular-powered gate access control and video intercom solutions for commercial, small business, multifamily, ranches and estate properties. The acquisition is expected to add a growing recurring revenue business with established distributor relationships, complementing our connected property offerings. In consideration for the purchase of 100% of the membership interests of CellGate, we paid $61.7 million in cash on October 30, 2026, after deducting $6.0 million related to agreed holdback provisions. An earn-out up to an additional $4.3 million is payable if certain performance targets are met. We are currently evaluating the accounting treatment of this acquisition and are in the process of completing the preliminary purchase price allocation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue, costs and expenses during the reported period. In accordance with GAAP, we base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process in light of the continuing uncertainty arising from the Macroeconomic Conditions, actual results could differ from those estimates and any such differences may be material. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. Except as disclosed in Note 2 of our notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, there were no other material changes to our use of estimates or other critical accounting policies from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on February 19, 2026.

The global economy, credit markets and financial markets have and may continue to experience significant volatility as a result of the Macroeconomic Conditions. These Macroeconomic Conditions have and may continue to create supply chain disruptions, inventory disruptions, and fluctuations in economic growth, including fluctuations in employment rates, inflation, tariffs, energy prices and consumer sentiment. It remains difficult to assess or predict the ultimate duration and economic impact of the Macroeconomic Conditions. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for our entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, which is increasingly true in periods of uncertainty, such as the uncertainty caused by the Macroeconomic Conditions. Prolonged uncertainty with respect to the Macroeconomic Conditions could cause further economic slowdown or cause other unpredictable events, each of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We record interest expense primarily related to our 2026 Notes and 2029 Notes. We exclude interest expense in calculating non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA because we believe the exclusion of interest expense will provide for more meaningful information about our financial performance. We exclude interest income and certain activity within other expense, net including gains, losses or impairments on investments with readily determinable fair values and without readily determinable fair values and on other assets, gains on settlement fees and losses on the early extinguishment of debt, when applicable, from non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA because we do not consider it part of our ongoing results of operations. We exclude the impact related to our provision for income taxes and income from equity method investments, net from non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA because we do not consider these adjustments to be part of our ongoing results of operations.

We have included non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA in this report because it is a key measure our management uses to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to generate future operating plans, to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital and to make investments in initiatives that are focused on cultivating new markets for our solutions. We also use non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as a performance measure under our executive bonus plan. Further, we believe the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA facilitates comparisons of our operating performance on a period-to-period basis and, in the case of exclusion of acquisition-related expense and certain historical legal expenses, excludes items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core operating performance. Accordingly, we believe non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors.

In April 2025, the U.S. government announced a baseline tariff of 10% on all products imported into the United States (with certain limited exceptions) and additional individualized tariffs based on country of origin at different rates per country. While the U.S. Supreme Court invalidated these tariffs in February 2026, the U.S. government may continue to impose tariffs under alternative statutory authorities, and the situation remains fluid. On April 20, 2026, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection began accepting refund requests through its Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries portal, and we subsequently filed for an estimated $14.5 million in tariffs previously paid under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, or IEEPA. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded less than one third of the estimated $14.5 million as a reduction to cost of hardware and other revenue and processed a commensurate amount of refunds to customers, excluding certain processing fees, as a reduction to hardware and other revenue. As of June 30, 2026, we have not recorded any additional receivables related to potential refunds for previous tariffs we paid because we are unable to assess the probability of their recovery. The United States and/or countries into which we import products have adjusted and/or imposed and may, in the future, adjust and/or impose new quotas, duties, tariffs or reciprocal tariffs or other restrictions. A significant portion of our hardware is produced outside the United States, including in Vietnam, Thailand and Taiwan. The U.S. government has since announced several tariff framework agreements, including with countries where a significant portion of our hardware is produced, which have impacted our hardware revenue margins. The ultimate impact of any tariffs will depend on various factors, including how long such tariffs remain in place, the ultimate levels of such tariffs, the outcome of any new legal challenges to their validity, the process and timing for obtaining any refunds for previously paid tariffs, how other countries respond to the U.S. tariffs, and the specific timing of when we implement any additional pass-through costs.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we recorded substantially all of the $14.5 million as a reduction to cost of hardware and other revenue.

We are subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes as well as foreign income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. As a result, we recognize tax liabilities based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, our effective tax rate was above the 21.0% statutory rate primarily due to the impact of state taxes, foreign withholding taxes, a shortfall from employee stock-based compensation and other nondeductible expenses, partially offset by the impact of 2026 research and development tax credits claimed and the foreign derived deduction eligible income deduction.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is a key measure our management uses to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends to generate future operating plans, to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital, and to make investments in initiatives that are focused on cultivating new markets for our solutions. In particular, the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA facilitates comparisons of our operating performance on a period-to-period basis and, in the case of exclusion of acquisition-related adjustments and certain historical legal expenses, excludes items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core operating performance. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Please see Non-GAAP Measuresin this section for a discussion of the limitations of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA from net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measurement, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

We define non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA as our net income before interest expense, interest income, certain activity within other expense, net, provision for income taxes, income from equity method investments, net, amortization and depreciation expense, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expense, legal costs and settlement fees incurred and received in connection with non-ordinary course litigation and other disputes, particularly costs involved in ongoing intellectual property litigation. We do not consider these items to be indicative of our core operating performance. The non-cash items include amortization and depreciation expense; income from equity method investments, net; amortization of debt issuance costs for the 2026 Notes and 2029 Notes included in interest expense; stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units and other forms of equity compensation, including, but not limited to, the sale of common stock. We do not adjust for ordinary course legal expenses resulting from maintaining and enforcing our intellectual property portfolio and license agreements. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. See the table below for a reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA from net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
