Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

Thank you, Jamie, and welcome everyone to Digi International's 2nd fiscal quarter of 2026 earnings call. As you can tell, we're doing things a little bit differently this time. For the 1st time, we're doing this via video conference. We're actually live at Digi's headquarters in Hopkins, Minnesota, and this is Ron Konezny. I'm joined by our CFO, Jamie Loch. We've got a brief presentation we're gonna run through as we talk about some of the comments on the quarter and outlook, and then we'll have time for Q&A with our analysts, followed by some closing comments. As a reminder, we have sent out an earnings release, investor presentation, and the materials we're gonna review, as well as this video will be posted on our website for you to view if you're not able to attend live. Great experiment. Thank you for joining.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

With Digi as a set-- as a background, Digi participates in what's called the industrial Internet of Things market. We're not involved with consumer applications. We help our customers connect and help manage and control their remote assets and resources. We do that with a combination of technologies. The technologies include edge-based hardware, which is the largest portion of the industrial IoT market. It's been around the longest. It's actually growing the slowest, but a critical part of any IoT solution. The next biggest part of the market is the connectivity, the transport layer that gets you the data from that edge device that's connected to your resources remotely and brings that information typically to cloud-based software, sometimes on-prem. Software is the third largest and the second fastest-growing part of the industrial IoT market. Finally, what you do with all that data.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

The services required to understand, to implement, and to ultimately get that ROI from your industrial IoT application is the fastest-growing and the smallest piece of the industrial IoT market. It's growing double digits, so it's a great place to be. It is incredibly fragmented. There are a lot of different players out there, but the ROI from remotely managing, controlling, and improving your assets and resources is compelling. What we're seeing in the marketplace, it's a hypothesis we've had since I started here at Digi, and we're seeing it play in the real world, is people are looking for providers to bring the entire solution set versus putting those pieces together on their own and then having to manage those things with all of the change that's going on in the world.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

Digi's in a perfect spot to meet those customers' needs. We have four key attributes that customers are looking for, and we survey our customers annually to make sure we understand the trends and what's important to their business and to their industrial IoT solution. The number one, which has risen up the ranks dramatically, is security, is in the age of more dynamic exposure and attacks, your IoT device needs to be secure or critical infrastructure could be vulnerable. The second thing, it's gotta be incredibly reliable. Oftentimes, our equipment's and solutions being deployed in remote areas, and if that solution doesn't stand the test of time and provide that constant connection, it really eats into the ROI. The third is it's gotta be scalable.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

We deal with large customers, so it's gotta be scalable in numbers, but we also deal with global customers, so it's gotta scale across geographies as well. Finally, it's gotta be easy. It's gotta be easy to implement. It's gotta be easy to configure. It's gotta be easy to get ultimately that ROI. That combination of attributes is something we really work hard on to become that complete solution provider that we see the market looking for. Ultimately, this combination of attributes is helping our customers improve their time to value. We wanna get them ROI quicker than if they had to do it themselves, and it's gotta be managed fully and indefinitely. With all of the dynamics going on with security, technology, regulation, with business opportunities and challenges, an actively managed system is critical in today's age.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

A new vector, of course, that's come up in the industrial IoT world is the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence. Digi's hard at work taking advantage of these incredible tools, both internally and in our product set. I've got two images here to explain some of the work we're doing here at Digi. On the left-hand side is actually a Google framework called the Model Context Protocol. Long story short, it's a framework that allows you to put in technology that can access your corporate data in a highly governed and secure way, and you use the LLM of your choice to then be able to interrogate that data in a natural language.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

You can use these tools now for internal use to examine, say, the attributes of your demand profile with your supply chain to make sure you're gonna have enough supply to meet your customers' demand. You can look at it for financial reporting and for analysis to help speed the process for understanding what's likely to happen in the future. We can help it to build products. On the right-hand side is an example that comes from our SmartSense division. The use of one of our AI tools, we're now able to use those tools to create incredibly accurate systems that not only identify challenges, in this case with an asset that you may be monitoring, a refrigerator, a walk-in freezer, but also what is the likely scenario? What's the likely problem? What's the likely root cause that needs attention? How much confidence do you have?

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

That information can be shared in more layman's term to a store operator or employee, in more technical term to a technician or a facilities professional. We're able to do this in weeks, which is some of the incredible power that AI has. As we expose these technologies and offerings to our customers, we're gonna get feedback, and we're gonna improve these types of offering continuously. An exciting age of edge-based AI. Edge-based AI has a slower trajectory, a more uneven path because there's so many different types of equipment out there, and these models need to be constructed and consume this data to give high confidence answers that you can act on. With that, I'm gonna pass it to Jamie for some comments on our financial results.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Thanks, Ron. Well, I have the easy page to talk about because you see a page like this, and it's just records all over the place. $131 million revenue this quarter, 25% up year-over-year. That is a quarterly record. 64% gross margins, that's 190 basis points up year-over-year. 64% is an all-time record for us. Driving kind of to the 64% is a combination of things. We had, as you can see, with ARR continuing to grow, that mix in and of itself is gonna help drive margins forward. We also continue to see good mix inside of each of our product lines. Inside of there is the impact of the current pricing related to memory. That pricing is being somewhat offset by other positive pricing impacts that we're seeing elsewhere inside of our costs of goods sold.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

It's having maybe an impact of basis points rather than a real significant impact, and 64% is a real strong number for us. I think in any given period of time with the mix, we settle somewhere in between, say, the low to mid-60s%, just like we are today. $41 million cash flow from operations also is a quarterly record. That is up 58% year-over-year. Just phenomenal cash, and we'll get to that here in a couple more minutes. On a non-GAAP basis, $184 million in ARR, annualized recurring revenue. That's up 50% year-over-year. We've got $34 million of adjusted EBITDA, which is also a record, and 26.3% on adjusted EBITDA margins, another quarterly record. Digi continues to see things progressing forward.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

The benefit of the ARR model is that as you continue to add to that, it continues to drive the business forward in more reliable, predictable results and continues to assist in setting records quarter over quarter. With those as the backdrop, a lot of people then wanna know how are we performing against our March, to our objectives of 200 that we set out at the beginning of fiscal 2024 of $200 million in ARR and $200 million in adjusted EBITDA. The ARR trajectory has been luminous, as you can see on the chart here. 28% CAGR over that two-year period. Based on the guidance that we issued today of 25% ARR growth this year, we project that we will end the year at $190 million in ARR.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Looking at adjusted EBITDA using the midpoint of the guidance that we provided today, you can see that we are seeing tremendous growth, 17% CAGR. Admittedly, we've got a little bit of work to do in order to get to that $200 million objective. As we continue to see growth in revenue, as we continue to see expansion in ARR, we fully expect to see that leverage down to the bottom line in terms of profits growing faster than revenue. We believe that that goal is still within our reach.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

You know, Jamie, reflecting back to those earlier comments, ARR is the most important measure in this company. It ties those opening comments into results. It's a sign that we're selling solutions. We're delivering value. Customers are willing to pay for an actively managed system. That's always hot.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Agreed. Everybody wins. Our customers win, our shareholders win. We provide value to our customers that clearly, they see as important.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

The last slide we have for you on this presentation is the Digi flywheel. The Digi flywheel is really explained in four parts. We have strong organic growth, double-digit grower. We complement that with select acquisitions. We've done 11 acquisitions over the last 11 years, so we've developed some expertise there. The first starts with identification, selection. We've got a database of 400 companies that we're monitoring for potential acquisitions. We're looking for companies, unique companies, that have strong growth characteristics, that have an ARR profile, and that are either profitable or, combined with Digi, we can accelerate their profitability. Once that identification process happened, then the hard work starts. It's all about integration, we've got to integrate our cultures, our systems, our processes, our teams, our offerings to the end market, our messages, and that's where we really think we shine.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

We do a good job of not only acquiring companies, but most importantly, where the hard work begins is integrating those companies to achieve our joint objectives. Now, how do we pay for this, Jamie?

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Well, we get the lucky part of collecting the cash. If you move down to box three, you can see that this year to date, we've collected more cash than our adjusted EBITDA. There's a couple of things that drive that. The first impact on being able to do that is organic growth, double-digit growth in both ARR and revenue, combined with acquisition impact, followed by really great cash management from our AR teams and our AP teams. If you can correlate that cash into being able to get continued pay down of our debt. Typically, in our environment, you would expect that our cash generated from operations would be around that 85% mark of our adjusted EBITDA.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Last year, fiscal year, it was about 100%, where we had cash generation from operations at about $108 million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $108 million. This year so far, we're outpacing that. Year to date, we've generated $77 million of cash on $65 million of adjusted EBITDA. You can see in Q2 alone, we generated $41 million of cash on $34 million of adjusted EBITDA. We take that cash, we pay down our debt, and then we are able to wash, rinse, and repeat through the flywheel.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

That identification, that integration, we use debt to finance these, so we protect our equity shareholders. We've got a clean cap table. We pay down that debt to position ourselves for the next opportunity. With that said, we're gonna hand it over for questions from our analyst community, and thank you again for enjoying that presentation.

Operator

Thank you. Our first question comes from Tommy Moll of Stephens. Your line is open.

Tommy Moll
Tommy Moll
Analyst at Stephens

Good afternoon. Thanks for taking my questions.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

Hey, thank you, Tommy.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Hey, Tommy.

Tommy Moll
Tommy Moll
Analyst at Stephens

Ron, in the release, you used the word accelerating to describe some customer behavior. This sounds better compared to last quarter. Two-part question. What anecdotes can you share that give you the confidence to say that, and how much of the impact comes from data centers? Thank you.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

That's a really good question. You know, this is a team sport, so we've got a beautiful team that's executing, I think, at a higher level than we have in the past. You obviously need favorable market conditions. I think there's certain verticals. You mentioned AI data centers. We're also seeing strong results in utilities. We're seeing strong results in the medical field, mass transit. There's some verticals that we really do well in that are really willing and ready to make that investment in IoT. I think we're, you know, we're in some cases out-hustling our competition. I think that combination of things Tommy, I know you report on PMI. It's nice to see a PMI above 50 the last couple months here.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

That's certainly helpful to take, you know, a backdrop. We are mainly exposed to industrials. If we have a healthy industrial market, that certainly helps us. I think we have the chance to be leaders in applying AI to the industrial IoT market, and so I think we're starting to get some traction there. It's a combination of things, but I think that execution's really helping us.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Tommy, I would just add to that when you talk about how maybe you measure that. We've talked about this in previous calls where we measure at each of our product lines, the days to win inside of our funnel. You can see inside of certain areas and inside of certain offerings where those days to win are starting to shorten. I would say we're not necessarily seeing it back to maybe levels that they were pre-COVID already, but definitely you're seeing improvement in those areas, and that, at the very least, provides a data set that says you're seeing some acceleration.

Tommy Moll
Tommy Moll
Analyst at Stephens

Thank you both. As a follow-up, likely going to Jamie here on your guidance, Jamie, if I just take the full year outlook, the results to date, the third quarter outlook and back into what you're implying for fourth quarter, it looks like from a sequential basis, you've got revenue dollars up quarter-over-quarter, Q3 to Q4, but EBITDA dollars down quarter-over-quarter. What's behind that?

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

I will, I don't know.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

I don't think that's intended. I think that's intended.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

I would say I don't know that that would actually.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

Yeah.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

I believe last year Q4.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

I think he's talking about sequentially, not year-over-year.

Tommy Moll
Tommy Moll
Analyst at Stephens

Sequential.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

I believe Yeah.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Sequential. Yeah. I would tell you, it's less around intention and more around there are certain costs that come into Q4 that are more annualized in that basis. I think there's a second condition where in the pipeline right now there's a potential mix that we're looking at. When we talk about gross margins, we've not established 64% necessarily as a base camp. That has a range to it. When we look at the pipeline, there's a potential that that range probably has a point or two of impact on mix in FQ4. If that turns out to be differently, that would be reflected. Right now I would say it's probably a little bit more generated by maybe some mix things that we're looking at.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

There's also maybe a little bit of a hedging that we're doing on what we're seeing in the memory market. The combination of those things, while only, say, one, plus one quarter from where we're at today, it's still murky enough that we're trying to make sure that we land at a spot that both our shareholders and our analysts can rely on us for.

Tommy Moll
Tommy Moll
Analyst at Stephens

Thank you for the insight. I'll turn it back.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question comes from Timothy Shubsda of Piper Sandler. Your line is open.

Timothy Shubsda
Timothy Shubsda
Analyst at Piper Sandler

Hey, guys. Thanks for taking our questions. This is Tim on for James Fish.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Hey, Tim.

Timothy Shubsda
Timothy Shubsda
Analyst at Piper Sandler

How you guys doing? Just hoping you guys could give us some a little bit of insight on how the Particle and Jolt integrations have been going now you have a full quarter of each. Additionally, what are you guys seeing as some of the most attractive areas for potential future investment? Thanks so much.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

Yeah, great questions, Tim, and nice to meet you here. The Jolt acquisition, we completed that in August of last year. The integration has gone really well. We actually was just out with the team last week in Las Vegas for a Jolt SmartSense in-person summit, and some great in-person work and combinations. One of the validations of the integration is, hey, what's happening on the customer acquisition front? You'll see from our solutions ARR, which took a little bit of a bump, that's the result directly of a Jolt and SmartSense collaboration. That it's exciting to see that kind of result. I think the cultures are now integrated, the teams, the processes. The technology always takes a little bit more time, but that's well underway, and we're really happy about that combination.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

Particle is a little bit newer. We completed that acquisition in January. We're as equally thrilled about that acquisition. It's a smaller team than the Jolt team, there are quite a bit of opportunities in both taking Digi legacy products and selling that in conjunction with the Particle cloud, as well as taking the Particle traditional solution and bringing that to Digi opportunities. We're excited about both acquisitions. We feel like the integrations are on track. We're moving towards a common set of CRM and ERP systems that we'll have done by the end of the fiscal year as well.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question comes from Scott Searle of ROTH Capital Partners. Your line is open.

Scott Searle
Scott Searle
Analyst at ROTH Capital Partners

Hey, good afternoon. Thanks for taking the questions. Great job on the quarter, guys. Nice outlook.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Thanks, Scott.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

Hey, thanks, Scott. Good to hear your voice.

Scott Searle
Scott Searle
Analyst at ROTH Capital Partners

Hey, maybe just to dive in real quickly, could you calibrate us, how big Particle was in the quarter? Could you talk a little bit as well about any impact from the China exclusion list and expansion there, what you're seeing kind of in terms of channel, inventories, availability of parts, et cetera? Federal spend. It sounds like there are a bunch of areas that are doing pretty well. I've heard some comments from others that federal is struggling a little bit. I'm wondering how you guys are doing with that. Then I had a one follow-up.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

Yeah, I think it's a three-part question. We'll see if we can keep track of everything. Particle, as you recall, it's about $20 million of recurring revenue, which is the vast majority of the revenue. We had them for, you know, about two-thirds of a quarter. You know, it was basically around $4 million or so of contribution that Particle had in the fiscal second quarter. The second question I believe is regarding the supply chain.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Channel inventory.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

Channel inventory is, you know, it actually probably too low, to be honest.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Yeah. Yeah. Scott, it's, I would say it's in the zone. It is not, but it's on the low end of the zone, right? I think if you look historically, there's quite a bit of room there to go from a channel inventory perspective, so it's getting better. You know, you kind of had this cycle where coming out of COVID, channel inventory got high. They were trying to work that down. They actually probably let it go too low. Now the trajectory is making its way back up. I'd say it's in the zone, but it's still on the low end of the range.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

Yeah, we're seeing channel also being more incremental, not willing to, you know, place much bigger bets without a customer PO. There's certainly annual run rate business, but they don't want to step out too far and have their balance sheet extended. The supply chain world is never calm. You know, we've got conflict in Iran that has increased the price of energy, and that impacts freight. Memory is for especially the newest forms of memory is quite high. The good news is our supply chain team is fantastic. They're making sure we've got availability and allocation. While we may not like the price for things, but we're not upsetting customers with availability and lead times. The most recent U.S. regulations really affected consumer routers. It hasn't really bled yet into industrial applications where we play.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

We have a very good supply chain that we feel like is the type that appeals to U.S. utilities, to government opportunities where they can be confident an American supplier with American-made products. We're not hugely exposed to the federal market, so we don't have the same kind of surge that someone would have that's got a lot of DOD business or other departments. We do have some business, but it's not a major vertical for us.

Scott Searle
Scott Searle
Analyst at ROTH Capital Partners

Gotcha. Very helpful. Ron, if we could just to dive in a little bit in terms of ARR demand trends, you know, getting a layer down, where are you seeing some of the strength in terms of SmartSense and some verticals within SmartSense, and then maybe on the Ventus side in terms of some of the managed services? Just trying to get a little bit of color in terms of what's healthy, what's got you concerned or you're watching carefully.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

Yeah. SmartSense has really been sticking to their lanes. They're mainly food applications and healthcare. With the addition of Jolt, we've added a couple capabilities, labeling services, calendar services, inventory management. It's actually really bolstered our food service offering. We signed a large opportunity last quarter that takes advantage of some of Jolt's capabilities and SmartSense's enterprise selling and contracting. That's really been, I think, par for the course with the Jolt, you know, supercharger added. Within Ventus, we've got a tremendous amount of success within financial services. Within financial services, also point-of-sale opportunities, lottery gaming and other types of applications in that point of sale.

Ron Konezny
Ron Konezny
President and CEO at Digi International

We're excited about some future applications around digital signage and some other areas that we have traditionally not been dominant but are getting into unmanned kiosks, digital signs, and other opportunities for connectivity.

Scott Searle
Scott Searle
Analyst at ROTH Capital Partners

Great. Thanks so much.

Operator

Thank you. Our next question comes from Rian Bisson of Craig-Hallum. Your line is open.

Rian Bisson
Rian Bisson
Analyst at Craig-Hallum

Hey, guys. It's Rian on for Anthony Stoss. Thanks for taking my questions. The gross margin expansion has been real nice to see. Jamie, I think you mentioned some positive offsetting from some of the memory pricing impacts. I guess I just wonder, you know, where you guys think you can grow gross margins long term, maybe over the next couple of years, or if you have a target maybe you could speak to. Thanks.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

Yeah, I think, you know, that's, it's a little bit of a mixed question. While we are continuing to see expansion in ARR, and ARR is growing faster than revenue, there's still that pocket of one-time revenue that's there. That one-time revenue can have some variability, both in terms of the mix inside of a product line, where you can have certain cellular products as an example, that range in certain gross margins. You combine that with things like a memory shortage, like fuel surcharges, different things like that, you can get more variability in a 90-day window. I would say that, you know, setting a base camp in that mid, low to mid-60s% is the right place.

Jamie Loch
Jamie Loch
CFO at Digi International

When you start getting beyond, say, maybe a three-year window, I think as ARR continues to expand and continues to grow, you're gonna see basis points improvement. I still think the general rule of thumb fits over a long period of time. 15 basis points-25 basis points of improvement per quarter seems reasonable. You're going to have quarters of maybe up more than that, down more than that based on that large product volume that sits there. As ARR as a percentage of revenue continues to grow in that count, that spread will certainly shrink, but you're gonna continue to see margin expansion. I don't know if I would necessarily say that there's a number in mind as much as I continue to see ARR growing faster than revenue, which means there's for sure a reliable longer CAGR of 15-20 basis points per quarter.

Rian Bisson

Hey, thank you, Dee Dee. First of all, thank you all for joining this first ever video earnings call from Digi headquarters. Hope you enjoyed it. A little more personal than just having audio. I can't thank my team enough. This is a team sport. We can't win with one function or one person, and Digi's building something very special here. I'm so excited to be a part of this. I think there's so much more to come here. I wanna thank all of our stakeholders, our suppliers, our channel partners, our investors. Of course, most importantly, our team and our customers. Thank you all and look forward to an update three months from now.
