Current report

Gain on change in fair value of investment relates to the revaluation of warrants held to purchase shares of preferred stock of a data revenue partner in connection with an observable price change.

Current report

Hardware revenue decreased $3.8 million, or 24%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by a delay in our new product launch, which was accompanied by increased discounts implemented to clear out existing inventory. The combination of higher discounts and reduced sales volume led to a $3.5 million decrease in retail sales, while a $0.3 million increase in returns further impacted hardware revenue.

Current report

Other revenue increased $2.8 million, or 43%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, due to a $2.0 million increase in data revenue, which was primarily attributable to the Amended and Restated Data Services and License Agreement with Placer.ai we entered into in July 2024 (the “A&R Placer Agreement”), and a $0.8 million increase in partnership revenue.

Current report

Hardware revenue decreased $3.3 million, or 9%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a $4.8 million decrease in retail sales driven by a delay in our new product launch, which led to lower sales volume. This decline was partially offset by a $1.5 million decrease in discounts and returns.

Current report

Other revenue increased $3.6 million, or 18%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, due to a $2.1 million increase in data revenue, which was primarily attributable to the A&R Placer Agreement, and a $1.5 million increase in partnership revenue.

Current report

Cost of subscription revenue increased $2.4 million, or 29%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to a $1.5 million increase in technology expenses, a $0.5 million increase in personnel-related and stock-based compensation costs, and a $0.4 million increase in premium membership offerings and other costs, attributable to Company growth.

Current report

Subscription gross margin remained flat at 85% during the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Current report

Cost of hardware revenue decreased $0.4 million, or 3%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a $1.2 million decrease in costs related to the reduced number of units sold, which was partially offset by a $0.6 million increase in freight costs related to a shift in channel mix and a $0.2 million increase in other fixed costs, attributable to Company growth.

Current report

Hardware gross margin decreased to 5% during the three months ended September 30, 2024 from 26% during the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to increased discounts implemented to clear out existing inventory ahead of the new product launch. Fewer units sold, combined with an increase in fixed hardware costs in line with Company growth, and an increase in freight costs associated with a shift in channel mix also impacted margin.

Current report

Cost of hardware revenue decreased by $0.6 million, or 2%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a $1.1 million decrease in costs related to the reduced number of units sold as well as a $0.7 million decrease in costs related to the discontinuation of certain battery related membership benefits which took place during the second quarter of 2023. The decreases were partially offset by increases of $0.7 million in hardware freight costs related to a shift in channel mix and $0.5 million in other fixed costs attributable to Company growth.

Current report

Hardware gross margin decreased to 14% during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 from 20% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase in freight costs associated with the shift in channel mix, a decrease in units sold, and an increase in fixed hardware costs in line with Company growth.

Current report

General and administrative expenses increased $1.1 million, or 8%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. This was primarily due to increases of $1.9 million in personnel-related and stock-based compensation costs and $0.3 million in technology expenses, attributable to Company growth. The increases were partially offset by a decrease of $0.8 million in professional and outside services following the completion of our U.S. IPO, and a $0.3 million increase in capitalized costs related to internal use software.

Current report

In July 2024, an observable price change related to our investment in warrants held to purchase shares of preferred stock of a data revenue partner took place. The observable price change resulted in a fair value adjustment and gain of $5.4 million recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. No such gains were recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Current report

Other income (expense), net increased $2.2 million, or 649%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. This was primarily driven by a $1.2 million increase in dividend and interest income resulting from higher average gross yields primarily due to an increased cash and cash equivalents balance. In addition, a $0.7 million favorable change in the impact of currency revaluation and a $0.3 million reduction in interest expense and other costs contributed to the increase.

Current report

For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we sold approximately 0.8 million units and 1.1 million units, respectively, representing a decrease of 24% year over year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we sold approximately 2.0 million units and 2.3 million units, respectively, representing a decrease of 12% year over year. The decrease in net hardware units shipped for both periods was primarily driven by a delay in our new product launch.

Current report

For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the net ASP per unit was $12.69 and $13.24, respectively, representing a decrease of 4% year over year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the net ASP per unit was $14.78 and $14.96, respectively, representing a decrease of 1% year over year. The decreases in net ASP for both periods were primarily due to increased discounts implemented to clear out existing inventory prior to the new product launch.

The increase was primarily due to $2.3 million in fewer discounts offered which was partially offset by a $1.2 million increase in returns and a $0.8 million decrease in revenue from retail sales related to a shift in product mix. The $0.3 million increase in hardware revenue is in line with the slight increase in net average selling price and an overall flat number of net hardware units shipped.
