GREENSBORO, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Guerrilla RF, Inc. (“Guerrilla RF” or the “Company”), a semiconductor company focused on high performance MMICs (monolithic microwave integrated circuits) for the wireless and infrastructure market, announced today financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2021.
The Company reported record total sales of $10.5 million in 2021, an increase of 30 percent as compared to $8.1 million in 2020. Product revenue in 2021 increased 63 percent to a record $9.8 million despite royalty revenue decreasing 69 percent to $652K as compared to $2.1 million in 2020. The decrease in royalty revenue was consistent with the Company’s plan to transition from a licensing model to a product sales model.
Product revenue to our automotive end users increased 82 percent in 2021 to a record $4 million. Repeater end user product revenue doubled to $2.2 million, while sales to our 5G infrastructure end users product revenue remained steady at $1.8 million. Our total direct product costs increased to $4.3 million in 2021; thus, our overall contribution margin on product revenue was 69.6 percent in 2021 ($9.8 million in product revenue divided by $4.3 million in direct product costs). Cash at December 31, 2021 was $5.3 million.
“Our plan to transition from a licensing model to a proprietary product model has been immensely successful,” said Ryan Pratt, founder and CEO at Guerrilla RF. “We believe that we’re a best-in-class MMIC provider in the fast-growing automotive vertical, and we see extraordinary opportunity to launch new and exciting cutting-edge products in 5G infrastructure.”
