Our second-quarter results reflect the expected delay in our production ramp, alongside a significant contribution from licensing revenue, which lifted our gross margin to 83%," said Georges Karam, CEO of Sequans. "During this period, our revenue pipeline has continued to grow, driven by the strong momentum of design wins from new deals secured with both Cat-M Monarch and Cat 1 Calliope platforms and Taurus 5G advanced design ins. We have witnessed increased engagement and interest from customers in our Taurus 5G platform, which has further bolstered our pipeline. We anticipate commencing sampling of this platform in the fourth quarter of 2023."
Mr. Karam continued, "We are excited to announce that Renesas and Sequans have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), subject to completion of the works council consultation, to initiate a tender offer transaction for Sequans to be acquired by Renesas. By joining forces, Sequans will be able to leverage Renesas' worldwide sales and support organization to enhance our design wins, and with the Sequans brand under the Renesas umbrella, we will be better equipped to compete in the Cellular IoT market."

Use of Non-IFRS/non-GAAP Financial Measures
Sequans reports second quarter 2023 financial results
Page 3
To supplement our unaudited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS, we disclose certain non-IFRS, or non-GAAP, financial measures. These measures exclude the non-cash stock-based compensation and the non-cash impacts of convertible debt amendments, conversions and repayments, effective interest adjustments related to the convertible debt with embedded derivatives and other financings; and deferred tax benefit or expense related to the convertible debt and other financings. We believe that these measures can be useful to facilitate comparisons among different companies. These non-GAAP measures have limitations in that the non-GAAP measures we use may not be directly comparable to those reported by other companies. We seek to compensate for this limitation by providing a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures in the table attached to this press release.
