- As Sonim aims to increase its addressable business prospects, it has announced the expansion of its distribution network, which now includes SYNNEX in North America and Syndico in the United Kingdom.
- Following February availability, SONM shipped out all remaining inventory of RS80 SmartScanner rugged tablets as manufacturing ramps up for anticipated demand in the second quarter.
Bob Tirva, Chief Financial Officer stated:
Higher-than-expected litigation costs due to a pending SEC probe affected SONM’s first quarter operating expenses the most. It’s likely that a high degree of litigation spending will persist until the case is settled. Once such deductible amounts are met, a percentage of SONM’s litigation costs will be paid by their corporate insurance policies in the future. In accordance with the lean operating mantra Sonim has embraced over the last 18 months, SONM has made considerable strides on their other operating cost groups. SONM has already put money into funding ODM commitments for their next-generation devices, which are set to debut in the second half of 2021 and are expected to significantly increase their addressable business opportunities.
