Plano, TX – Ribbon
Communications Inc. (Nasdaq: RBBN), a global provider of real time communications technology and IP optical networking solutions
to many of the world’s largest service providers, enterprises, and critical infrastructure operators to modernize and protect their
networks, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2023.
Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $226 million, compared
to $234 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 and $203 million for the third quarter of 2023. Revenue for full year 2023 was $826 million,
compared to $820 million for full year 2022. Full Year GAAP Loss from Operations improved $24 million to ($24) million. Adjusted non-GAAP
EBITDA also improved $27 million to $91 million.
“I am very pleased with the significant improvement we have
made in profitability in 2023 with higher margins in both of our segments and reduced operating expenses. Earnings on an adjusted EBITDA
basis for the year increased 41% compared to 2022,” stated Bruce McClelland, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ribbon Communications.
”We achieved our key goal of attaining profitability in the
IP Optical Networks business segment for the second half of the year. Sales exceeded $100 million for the first time in the fourth quarter
and, combined with strong margins, achieved an adjusted EBITDA margin of 8% for the segment. Demand for broadband
capacity will continue to grow exponentially, and we expect to continue our momentum in 2024 with increasing sales and improved profitability,”
Mr. McClelland added. “In our Cloud & Edge business, we expect continued growth from Enterprise customers and U.S.
Federal agencies. We also anticipate an improving U.S. Tier One Service spending environment in the second half of the year.”

“Despite a challenging operating
environment, we grew both sales and profitability in 2023. New customer wins in key markets helped offset lower U.S. Tier One Service
Provider investment in capital expenditures that is affecting all suppliers. We also benefited from the controlled spending actions that
we implemented early in the year with operating expenses down 6% despite the inflationary environment. As a result, adjusted EBITDA
in the fourth quarter of 2023 was strong at $43 million, or 19% of revenue. We improved our capital structure in 2023 by issuing $55
million of preferred equity and reducing our term loan by $95 million,” said Mick Lopez, Chief Financial Officer of Ribbon Communications.
Business Outlook1
For 2024, the Company expects to build on the momentum from the second
half of 2023, with a stronger portfolio and market presence and to follow a normal seasonal pattern with the business accelerating as
the year progresses.
For the first quarter of 2024, the Company projects revenue of
$180 million to $190 million. Non-GAAP gross margin is projected in a range of 51% to 52%. Adjusted EBITDA is projected in a range
of $5 million to $10 million.
For the full year 2024, the Company projects revenue of $840
million to $870 million. Non-GAAP gross margin is projected in a range of 53% to 54%. Adjusted EBITDA is projected in a range of
$110 million to $120 million.
The Company’s outlook is based on current indications for its
business, which are subject to change.

Important Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
The information in this release contains “forward-looking statements”
within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties.
All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this release, including without limitation statements regarding
the Company’s projected financial results for the first quarter of 2024 and beyond; the impact of the wars in Israel and Ukraine;
customer engagement and momentum; plans and objectives for future operations, including cost reductions; capital structure changes and
plans for future product development and manufacturing and the expected benefits therefrom, are forward-looking statements. Without limiting
the foregoing, the words “believes”, “estimates”, “expects”, “expectations”, “intends”,
“may”, “plans”, “projects” and other similar language, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current
expectations and assumptions regarding its business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate
to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Actual results
may differ materially from those contemplated in these forward-looking statements due to various risks, uncertainties and other important
factors, including, among others, the effects of geopolitical instabilities and wars, including in Israel and Ukraine (and the impact
of sanctions and trade restrictions imposed as a result thereof); operational disruptions at facilities located in Israel including as
a result of military call-ups of the Company’s employees in Israel, closure of the offices there or the temporary or long-term
closure of contract manufacturing in the region; the potential impact of litigation; risks related to supply chain disruptions, including
as a result of component availability; risks that the Company will not realize the estimated cost savings and/or anticipated benefits
from its strategic restructuring efforts; the impact of restructuring and cost-containment activities; unpredictable fluctuations in
quarterly revenue and operating results; risks related to the terms of the Company’s credit agreement including compliance with
the financial covenants; risks resulting from rising interests rates and inflationary pressures; risks related to cybersecurity and data
intrusion; failure to compete successfully against telecommunications equipment and networking companies; failure to grow the Company’s
customer base or generate recurring business from existing customers; credit risks; the timing of customer purchasing decisions and the
Company’s recognition of revenues; macroeconomic conditions, including inflation; market acceptance of the Company’s products
and services; rapid technological and market change; the ability to protect Company intellectual property rights and obtain necessary
licenses; the ability to maintain partner, reseller, distribution and vendor support and supply relationships; the potential for defects
in the Company’s products; increases in tariffs, trade restrictions or taxes on the Company’s products; and currency fluctuations.
These factors are not intended to be an all-encompassing list of risks
and uncertainties that may affect the Company's business and results from operations. Additional information regarding these and other
factors can be found in the Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, its Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2022 and its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. In providing forward-looking
statements, the Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update these statements publicly or otherwise, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
Discussion of Non-GAAP
Financial Measures
The Company’s management uses several different financial measures,
both GAAP and non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of its business, making operating decisions, planning and
forecasting future periods, and determining payments under compensation programs. The Company considers the use of non-GAAP financial
measures helpful in assessing the core performance of its continuing operations and when planning and forecasting future periods. The
Company’s annual financial plan is prepared on a non-GAAP basis and is approved by its board of directors. In addition, budgeting
and forecasting for revenue and expenses are conducted on a non-GAAP basis, and actual results on a non-GAAP basis are assessed against
the annual financial plan. The Company defines continuing operations as the ongoing results of its business adjusted for certain expenses
and credits, as described below. The Company believes that providing non-GAAP information to investors will allow investors to view the
financial results in the way its management views them and helps investors to better understand the Company’s core financial and
operating performance and evaluate the efficacy of the methodology and information used by its management to evaluate and measure such
performance.
While the Company’s management uses non-GAAP financial measures
as tools to enhance its understanding of certain aspects of the Company’s financial performance, its management does not consider
these measures to be a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP measures. In addition, the Company’s presentations of these measures
may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered
alternatives for, or in isolation from, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors are cautioned
that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. In particular, many of the adjustments to
the Company’s financial measures reflect the exclusion of items that are recurring and will be reflected in its financial results
for the foreseeable future.
Stock-Based Compensation
The expense related to stock-based awards is generally not controllable
in the short-term and can vary significantly based on the timing, size and nature of awards granted. The Company believes that presenting
non-GAAP operating results that exclude stock-based compensation provides investors with visibility and insight into its management’s
method of analysis and its core operating performance.
Amortization of Acquired Technology (including software licenses);
Amortization of Acquired Intangible Assets
Amortization amounts are inconsistent in frequency and amount and
are significantly impacted by the timing and size of acquisitions. Amortization of acquired technology is reported separately within
Cost of revenue and Amortization of acquired intangible assets is reported separately within Operating expenses. These items are reported
collectively as Amortization of acquired intangible assets in the accompanying reconciliations of non-GAAP and GAAP financial measures.
The Company believes that excluding non-cash amortization of these intangible assets facilitates the comparison of its financial results
to its historical operating results and to other companies in its industry as if the acquired intangible assets had been developed internally
rather than acquired.
Litigation Costs
In connection with a certain ongoing contract litigation where Ribbon
is defendant (as described in Note 25 to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2022), the Company has incurred litigation costs beginning in the first quarter of 2023. These costs
are included as a component of general and administrative expense. The Company believes that such costs are not part of its core business
or ongoing operations, are unplanned and generally not within its control. Accordingly, the Company believes that excluding the litigation
costs related to this specific legal matter facilitates the comparison of the Company’s financial results to its historical operating
results and to other companies in its industry.
Acquisition-, Disposal- and Integration-Related
The Company considers certain acquisition-, disposal- and integration-related
costs to be unrelated to the organic continuing operations of the Company and its acquired businesses. Such costs are generally not relevant
to assessing or estimating the long-term performance of the acquired assets. The Company excludes such acquisition-, disposal- and integration-related
costs to allow more accurate comparisons of its financial results to its historical operations and the financial results of less acquisitive
peer companies and allows management and investors to consider the ongoing operations of the business both with and without such expenses.
Restructuring and Related
The Company has recorded restructuring and related expense to streamline
operations and reduce operating costs by closing and consolidating certain facilities and reducing its worldwide workforce. The Company
believes that excluding restructuring and related expense facilitates the comparison of its financial results to its historical operating
results and to other companies in its industry, as there are no future revenue streams or other benefits associated with these costs.
Decrease in Fair Value of Investments
Each reporting period, the Company calculated the fair values of the
debentures (the "Debentures") and the warrants to purchase shares of AVCT common stock (the "AVCT Warrants") that
it received as consideration in connection with the Kandy Sale on December 1, 2020. Effective September 8, 2021, the Company
received 13,700,421 shares of AVCT common stock upon the conversion of the Debentures and AVCT Warrants. The AVCT common stock was also
marked to market each reporting period by the Company until their disposal on August 29, 2022, when they were used as partial consideration
in connection with the Company's acquisition of perpetual software licenses from AVCT. The Company recorded adjustments to the fair value
of these investments in Other (expense) income, net. The Company excluded the gains and losses from the change in the fair value of these
investments because it believes that such gains or losses were not part of its core business or ongoing operations.
Preferred Stock and Warrant Liability Mark-to-Market Adjustment
The Company recorded adjustments to the fair value of its Series A
Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock in Other (expense) income, net. Both instruments
issued in March 2023 in connection with the Company’s private placement and are classified as liabilities and marked to market
each reporting period. The Company excluded these gains and losses from the change in the fair value of these liabilities because it
believes that such gains or losses were not part of its core business or ongoing operations.
Preferred Stock and Warrant Liability Issuance Costs
The Company incurred $3.5 million of investment banking, advisory
and legal fees in its March 2023 private placement of the Series A Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s
common stock, both of which are classified by the Company as liabilities that are marked to market each reporting period. The Company
excludes these issuance costs to allow more accurate comparisons of its financial results to its historical operations and the financial
results of other companies in its industry, and it allows management and investors to consider the ongoing operations of the business
both with and without such expenses.
Tax Effect of Non-GAAP Adjustments
The Non-GAAP income tax provision is presented based on an estimated
tax rate applied against forecasted annual non-GAAP income. The Non-GAAP income tax provision assumes no available net operating losses
or valuation allowances for the U.S. because of reporting significant cumulative non-GAAP income over the past several years. The Company
is reporting its non-GAAP quarterly income taxes by computing an annual rate for the Company and applying that single rate (rather than
multiple rates by jurisdiction) to its consolidated quarterly results. The Company expects that this methodology will provide a consistent
rate throughout the year and allow investors to better understand the impact of income taxes on its results. Due to the methodology applied
to its estimated annual tax rate, the Company’s estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income will differ from its GAAP tax rate and from
its actual tax liabilities.
Adjusted EBITDA
The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA as
a supplemental measure to review and assess its performance. The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA by excluding from income (loss) from
operations: depreciation; stock-based compensation; amortization of acquired intangible assets; acquisition-, disposal- and integration-related
expense; certain litigation costs; and restructuring and related expense. In general, the Company excludes the expenses that it
considers to be non-cash and/or not part of its ongoing operations. The Company may exclude other items in the future that have those
characteristics. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is used by the investing community for comparative and valuation
purposes. The Company discloses this metric to support and facilitate dialogue with research analysts and investors. Other companies
may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than the Company does, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
