Management Commentary

WidePoint CEO Jin Kang commented: "Our 2024 results were a byproduct of surpassing the three key goals we set for the year: continued investments in sales and marketing, operational execution, and technical advancements. We continue to execute across all facets of our business lines, as demonstrated not only by exceeding all three of our guidance metrics of (revenue, adjusted EBITDA and free cashflow), but also by the notable improvements in our bottom line from 2022 to 2024. The positive trend in our financial performance has positioned us well to achieve our goal of positive earnings per share for the full year 2025. A major highlight of the year was our technical advancements. We successfully developed our MobileAnchor and M365 Analyzer solution sets and, most notably, achieved the long-awaited FedRAMP Authorization Status. This milestone will be pivotal in unlocking new opportunities that were previously beyond our reach, in addition to positioning us for future growth and outpacing our competitors."

"Four months into 2025, we have set the following goals to drive further improvements in WidePoint's financial performance and enhance returns for our valued shareholders. First, we aim to establish strategic partnerships to leverage shared client networks, expand our customer base, and grow our contract backlog. While still in the early stages, we are actively engaged in serious discussions with multiple parties regarding MobileAnchor, our Device-as-a-Service program, and offering solutions for cost savings to the new presidential administration. Second, we continue to prepare for the upcoming DHS CWMS 3.0 recompete, where we believe we are in a strong position to succeed. Our authorization to operate from DHS and now our FedRAMP Authorized status, proven track record working with the agency, seamless system integration with DHS infrastructure, and industry certifications and accreditations all places us ahead of our competition for this opportunity. Third, we are focused on the commercialization of our newly developed MobileAnchor and M365 Analyzer. Through our upcoming partnership program and additional investments, we believe these solutions will gain significant traction throughout 2025. Lastly, our goal is to achieve positive earnings per share for the year, an important milestone for our company. We look forward to continued growth and successful execution across all areas of our business throughout 2025."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

WidePoint uses a variety of operational and financial metrics, including non-GAAP financial measures such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free cashflow, to enable it to analyze its performance and financial condition. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP Net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and Free cashflow is provided below:

WidePoint uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free cashflow as supplemental non-GAAP measure of performance. WidePoint defines EBITDA as net income excluding (i) interest expense, (ii) provision for or benefit from income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, and (iv) Impairment charges. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain amounts included in EBITDA such as stock-based compensation expense. WidePoint defined Free cashflow as Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures. Management believes that adjustments for certain non-cash or other items and the exclusion of certain pass-through revenue and expenses should enhance stockholders' ability to evaluate the Company's performance, as such measures provide additional insights into the factors and trends affecting its business. Therefore, the Company excludes these items from its GAAP financial measures to calculate these unaudited non-GAAP measures. These unaudited non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for GAAP.
