Revenue Growth

Increased Profitability and Margin Expansion

Strong Liquidity and Disciplined Capital Allocation

“By almost every measure, SmartRent delivered strong progress in the second quarter as we continued to stay laser focused on realizing the full benefits outlined in our Vision 2028 strategic plan. Core Revenue and ARR were up double digits reflecting strong demand for our best-in-class solutions, the inherent benefits of our market leadership position, and our ongoing investments in sales execution,” commented Frank Martell, President and Chief Executive Officer of SmartRent. “Our installed IoT footprint now stands at approximately 930,000 units. Given our significant uptrend in Booked Units, I believe we are in a strong position to exceed one million installed units during the first half of next year.”

Martell added, “At the same time that we are aggressively expanding our installed IoT footprint, we are also seeing significant growth in other synergistic solutions such as our highly regarded access control and self-guided tour offerings. In addition, we are investing in our data and analytics solutions which leverage our network of millions of connected devices through investments such as the planned launch of our SmartRent Innovation Center and our recently announced strategic collaborations with Hexaware and Databricks.”

Chief Financial Officer Daryl Stemm added, “We ended the quarter with approximately $93 million in cash, no debt, and an undrawn $75 million credit facility. With the strength of Units Booked over the last twelve months, and our focus on margin expansion and disciplined operational execution, we believe that our second half Core Revenue and profitability will be substantially stronger than the second half of 2025.

Stemm continued, “We repurchased 2.8 million shares for $3.4 million during the quarter. With our strong balance sheet and improving financial results, we will continue to evaluate capital allocation opportunities, including share repurchases, through the lens of long-term shareholder value."

Second Quarter 2026 Results Summary

Core Revenue for the second quarter of 2026 was $38.4 million, an increase of approximately 14% from $33.7 million in the second quarter of 2025, reflecting increased volume of bookings and continued growth in the Company's installed base. Total Revenue was $39.8 million, an increase of approximately 4% from $38.3 million in the second quarter of 2025. We believe Core Revenue is the more representative measure of the underlying volume of the business, as it excludes non-cash revenue from hubs shipped up to four years ago.

Hosted services revenue totaled $17.6 million comprised of $16.1 million in SaaS revenue (40% of Total Revenue) and $1.5 million of hub amortization. SaaS Revenue grew 13%, driven by continued expansion of our installed base and adoption of Access Control and Self-Guided Tour (“SGT”) solutions. Hardware revenue was $13.6 million, down 10%, from $15.1 million in the prior year quarter. Professional services revenue was $8.6 million, up 100%, from $4.3 million in the prior year, primarily driven by increased hardware refresh installations, as well as higher Access Control volume, which contributed to growth in professional services Average Revenue Per Unit ("ARPU").

Annual Recurring Revenue increased 13% year over year to approximately $64.5 million, primarily driven by expansion of our installed base. ARPU trends reflected continued stability within the installed base and adoption of Access Control and SGT solutions. SaaS ARPU was $5.84 in the second quarter of 2026 compared to $5.66 in the second quarter of 2025.

As of June 30, 2026, Units Deployed reached 929,487, an increase of 10% with 81,531 more units compared to June 30, 2025, reflecting continued customer demand and progress toward the Company's goal of one million installed units in the first half of 2027. The Company had 18,857 New Units Deployed during the quarter, compared with 21,068 New Units Deployed in the prior year.

The improvement reflects the structural cost reduction actions taken in the second half of 2025, improved operating discipline and an increased level of SaaS revenue. SaaS gross profit was $12.1 million, an increase of 22% year over year, and SaaS gross margin expanded to 75.3%, reflecting the positive impact and continuing benefits of operating leverage.

In the second quarter of 2026, operating expenses were $22.7 million, a 7% decrease from $24.4 million in the same quarter from the prior year. Net loss improved by $5.3 million or 48%, to $5.6 million, from $10.9 million in the same quarter prior year.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with GAAP, SmartRent also discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Core Revenue. These financial measures are not recognized measures under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

All historic non-GAAP financial measures have been reconciled with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures - these non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to supersede or replace our GAAP results.

We define EBITDA as net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP before interest income, net, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before expenses related to non-recurring legal matters, stock-based compensation expense, impairment of investment in non-affiliate, goodwill impairment, non-recurring warranty provisions, other acquisition expenses, and other expenses caused by non-recurring, or unusual, events that are not indicative of our ongoing business.

We define Core Revenue as total revenue excluding hub amortization.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Core Revenue may be determined or calculated differently by other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures have been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Core Revenue are not used as measures of SmartRent’s liquidity and should not be considered alternatives to net income or loss or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

SmartRent’s management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in a number of ways to assess the Company’s financial and operating performance and believes that these measures provide useful information to investors regarding financial and business trends related to SmartRent’s results of operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also used to identify certain expenses and make decisions designed to help SmartRent meet its identified financial and operational goals and to optimize its financial performance, while neutralizing the impact of some expenses included in our operating results which could otherwise mask underlying trends in its business. SmartRent’s management believes that investors are provided with a more meaningful understanding of SmartRent’s ongoing operating performance when non-GAAP financial information is viewed with GAAP financial information.

SmartRent's management believes Core Revenue more accurately reflects the underlying volume of the business as it excludes non-cash revenue from hubs shipped in prior years.

Financial and Operating Metrics Defined

SmartRent regularly monitors several financial and operating metrics including the following which the Company believes are key measures of its growth, to evaluate its operating performance, identify trends affecting its business, formulate business plans, measure its progress, and make strategic decisions. These metrics may not provide accurate predictions of future GAAP financial results.

Units Deployed is defined as the aggregate number of Hub Devices that have been installed (including customer self-installations) and have an active subscription as of a stated measurement date.

New Units Deployed is defined as the aggregate number of Hub Devices that were installed (including customer self-installations) and resulted in a new active subscription during a stated measurement period.

Units Shipped is defined as the aggregate number of Hub Devices that have been shipped to customers during a stated measurement period.

Units Booked is defined as the aggregate number of Hub Device units subject to binding orders executed during a stated measurement period that are expected to result in a New Unit Deployed. The Company utilizes the concept of Units Booked to measure estimated near-term resource demand and the resulting approximate range of post-delivery revenue that it will earn and record. Units Booked represent binding orders only.

Bookings represent the contract value of hardware, professional services, and the first year of ARR for binding orders executed during a stated measurement period, including renewals and upgrades.

Annual Recurring Revenue (“ARR”) is defined as the annualized value of our SaaS Revenue earned in the current quarter, which we calculate by taking the total amount of SaaS Revenue in the current quarter and multiplying that amount by four.

SaaS Revenue is defined as subscription revenue from fees paid by customers for access to one or more of SmartRent's software applications, including access controls, asset monitoring and related services, and our Community WiFi solution.

Average Revenue per Unit (“ARPU”) is used to assess the growth and health of the overall business and reflects our ability to acquire, retain, engage and monetize our customers, and thereby drive revenue. ARPU metrics may vary significantly based on scope and mix during the period. Each revenue stream ARPU is calculated as follows:

Hardware ARPU is total hardware revenue during a given period divided by the total Units Shipped during the same period.

Professional Services ARPU is total professional services revenue during a given period divided by the total New Units Deployed, excluding customer self-installations, during the same period.

SaaS ARPU is total SaaS Revenue during a given period divided by the average aggregate Units Deployed in the same period divided by the number of months in the period.

Units Booked SaaS ARPU is the first year ARR for binding orders with Units Booked executed during the stated measurement period divided by the total Units Booked in the same period divided by the number of months in the period.

Property Net Revenue Retention is defined as SaaS Revenue at the end of the current period related to properties which had SaaS Revenue at the end of the same period in the prior year, divided by SaaS Revenue at the end of the same period in the prior year for those same properties. Property Net Revenue Retention includes additions to revenue from price increases on existing products, additions of new products at existing properties and transfers of ownership, offset by any reductions in revenue caused by cancellations or downgrades.

Customer Net Revenue Retention is defined as SaaS Revenue at the end of the current period related to customers which had SaaS Revenue at the end of the same period in the prior year, divided by SaaS Revenue at the end of the same period in the prior year for those same customers. A customer with SaaS Revenue is defined as an entity that has an active subscription during the stated period. Customer Net Revenue Retention includes additions to revenue from transfers of ownership, price increases on existing products and additions of new products at existing properties, offset by any reductions in revenue caused by cancellations or downgrades.

Customer Churn is defined as cancelled deployed units during the measurement period divided by Units Deployed as of the beginning of the measurement period.
