Overview

Everspin is a pioneer in the successful commercialization of Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory (MRAM) technology. Our portfolio of MRAM technologies, including Toggle MRAM and Spin-transfer Torque MRAM (STT-MRAM), is delivering superior performance, persistence and reliability in non-volatile memories that transform how mission-critical data is protected against power loss. With over 15 years of MRAM technology and manufacturing leadership, our memory solutions deliver significant value to our customers in key markets such as industrial, medical, automotive/transportation, aerospace and data center. We are the leading supplier of discrete MRAM components and a successful licensor of our broad portfolio of related technology intellectual property.

We sell our products directly and through our established distribution channels to industry-leading OEMs and ODMs.

We manufacture our MRAM products using both captive and third-party manufacturing capabilities. We purchase industry-standard complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) wafers from semiconductor foundries and perform back end of line (BEOL) processing that includes our magnetic-bit technology at our 200mm fabrication facility in Chandler, Arizona. We also manufacture full-flow 300mm CMOS wafers with our STT-MRAM magnetic-bit technology integrated in BEOL as part of our strategic relationship with GLOBALFOUNDRIES.

Key Metrics

We monitor a variety of key financial metrics to help us evaluate trends, establish budgets, measure the effectiveness of our business strategies, and assess operational efficiencies. These financial metrics include revenue, gross margin, operating expenses and operating income determined in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, we monitor and project cash flow to determine our sources and uses for working capital to fund our operations. We also monitor Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure, and design wins. We define Adjusted net income as net income adjusted for stock-based compensation expense.

Adjusted net income. Our management and board of directors use Adjusted net income to assess and evaluate our overall performance and financial trends, inform the annual budgeting process, and guide both short-term and long-term operational and strategic planning. As such, we believe Adjusted net income provides meaningful insight for investors into our financial performance, consistent with how our management team and board view and analyze our results. Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure and should be considered alongside, but not as a replacement for or superior to, net income as reported in accordance with GAAP. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to Adjusted net income for the periods presented:

Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024

Revenue

We generated 66% and 87% of our revenue from products sold to distributors for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

In addition to selling our products to our distributors, we maintain a direct selling relationship, for strategic purposes, with several key customer accounts. We have organized our sales team and representatives into three primary regions: North America; EMEA; and APAC. We recognize revenue by geography based on the region in which our customer is located and to which our products are sold, and not to where the end products in which they are assembled are shipped. Our revenue by region and by type of revenue for the periods indicated were as follows (in thousands):

Total revenue increased by $2.6 million, or 24.1%, from $10.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $13.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was due to an increase in product sales of $1.2 million, and an increase of licensing, royalty, patent, and other revenue of $1.4 million.

Licensing, royalty, patent, and other revenue is a highly variable revenue item characterized by a small number of transactions annually with revenue based on size and terms of each transaction. Licensing, royalty, patent, and other revenue increased by $1.4 million, or 181.7% from $0.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024, to $2.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to the progression of our contractual agreements with customers for the development of RAD-Hard products, a new agreement for the development of an AI technology application, partially offset by the conclusion of a contractual arrangement with a customer for the development of reliability models for strategic radiation hardened toggle MRAM. Our best estimate of royalty revenue earned is made throughout the year for royalty contracts with an annual performance period, with an annual adjustment recognized for actual sales in the first quarter of each fiscal year.

Cost of Sales and Gross Margin

(Dollars in thousands)

Cost of product sales increased by $0.9 million, or 17.8%, from $5.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024, to $6.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025. Cost of product sales relate primarily to costs of our toggle and STT products.

Cost of licensing, royalty, patent, and other revenue slightly increased by $0.1 million, or 44.3% from $0.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024, to $0.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase in costs related to labor and materials associated with the progression of our RAD-Hard and AI technology application projects.

Gross margin increased from 49.0% during the three months ended June 30, 2024, to 51.3% during the three months ended June 30, 2025. Gross margin increased as a result of a shift in product mix, an increase in licensing, royalty, patent, and other revenue revenue, offset by a decrease in FAB loadings.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was enacted. The OBBBA includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. We are currently assessing its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2025, we had $45.0 million of cash and cash equivalents, compared to $42.1 million as of December 31, 2024. We believe our cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to meet our anticipated capital requirements in the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, among other things, our growth rate, the timing and extent of our spending to support research and development activities, the timing and cost of establishing additional sales and marketing capabilities, and the introduction of new products.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated (in thousands):

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgements and Estimates

Our condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these condensed financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenue generated, and expenses incurred during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2025, that have had a material impact on our condensed financial statements and related notes.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of June 30, 2025, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2025.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent limitation on the effectiveness of internal control.

The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute assurances. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business, but cannot assure you that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting.

In addition to information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our annual report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and in “Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, which set forth information relating to important risks and uncertainties that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results. You should review and consider such Risk Factors in making any investment decision with respect to our securities.
