4Bad News, Challenges, or Points of Concern

Product delays have created a revenue gap that will not be fully recovered in 2026, leading to a cautious outlook.

The recovery of the largest FWA customer is taking longer than expected, impacting revenue forecasts.

The MSO market conversion is slower than anticipated, leading to the removal of MSO revenue from the 2026 outlook.

The company is facing execution challenges in product delivery and engineering processes that need improvement.

5Notable Q&A Insights

The MSO revenue opportunity was previously estimated at $15 million to $20 million, which has now been excluded from guidance.

The Subscribe platform's revenue is expected to decline by $2 million per quarter due to reduced complexity in services provided to a key customer.

Confidence in Q4 recovery is based on normalized ordering patterns and the introduction of new products, though risks remain regarding the recovery of the largest FWA customer.

The Nokia acquisition is on track, with no anticipated changes to the deal structure or economics despite current operational challenges.

The engineering execution bottleneck is attributed to the company's historical pace of product development, which has not scaled with the expanded customer base and product portfolio.
