Insights

Network-1's 2024 financial results reveal concerning operational trends, with revenue plummeting 96% to just $100,000 compared to $2.6 million in 2023. The net loss more than doubled to $3.03 million ($0.13/share), with the company's business model showing significant strain as litigation settlement revenue from its Remote Power Patent dramatically decreased.

The company has essentially transformed into an investment vehicle rather than an operational business. With $1.9 million in interest/dividend income versus only $100,000 in operating revenue, Network-1's financial stability now depends primarily on its investment portfolio rather than its core intellectual property monetization strategy.

A substantial $1.91 million of the net loss stems from Network-1's equity investment in ILiAD Biotechnologies, similar to the $2 million drag in 2023. This continued investment represents a significant opportunity cost given the company's operational challenges.

Despite these issues, Network-1 maintains substantial liquidity with $40.6 million in cash and marketable securities against a market cap of just $32.3 million. This creates a notable liquidity buffer but raises questions about capital allocation efficiency, as the company continues share repurchases (733,436 shares at $1.73 average) above current market price.

The company's commitment to returning capital to shareholders ($41 million since 2010 through dividends and buybacks) is substantial relative to its size, though the sustainability of this approach warrants scrutiny given the minimal operational revenue.

NEW CANAAN, CT / / February 28, 2025 / Network-1 Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American:NTIP) ("Network-1"), a company specializing in the acquisition, development, licensing and monetization of its intellectual property assets, today announced financial results for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Network-1 had revenue of $100,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to revenue of $2,601,000 for the year ended December 31, 2023. Revenue in both 2024 and 2023 was from settlement agreements in litigations involving Network-1's Remote Power Patent. Network-1's operating expenses decreased by $1,115,000 in 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to a decrease of $846,000 in costs of revenue related to lower contingent legal fees and incentive bonus compensation in 2024, as a result of decreased litigation settlement revenue.

Network-1 reported a net loss of $3,034,000or $0.13per share basic and diluted for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to a net loss of $1,457,000 or $0.06 per share on a basic and diluted basis for the year ended December 31, 2023. Included in net loss is Network-1's share of the net loss of its equity investee (ILiAD Biotechnologies, LLC) of $1,912,000 and $2,003,000 for the years ended 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Interest and dividend income for 2024 was $1,897,000 as compared to $1,868,000for 2023. In addition, in 2024 Network-1 recorded realized and unrealized gains on marketable securities of $177,000 as compared to $525,000in 2023. The decline in unrealized and realized gains in 2024 was primarily due to the timing of maturities of marketable securities and the declines in realized yields on our fixed income holdings in 2024 as compared to 2023.

At December 31, 2024, Network-1's principal sources of liquidity consisted of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities of $40,600,000 and working capital of $40,066,000. Management believes that based on Network-1's current cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities positions, Network-1 will have sufficient liquidity to fund its operations for the foreseeable future.

On June 14, 2023, Network鈥�1's Board of Directors authorized an extension and increase of Network鈥�1's Share Repurchase Program to repurchase up to $5,000,000 of shares of its common stock over the subsequent 24-month period. During the year ended December 31, 2024, Network鈥�1 repurchased an aggregate of 733,436 shares of its common stock pursuant to its Share Repurchase Program at a cost of approximately $1,270,438 (exclusive of commissions) or an average price per share of $1.73.

Combined with the approximate $22,000,000 in dividends paid beginning in 2010 to date, Network-1 has returned, through such dividends and share repurchases, in excess $41,000,000 to its shareholders.

Network-1's dividend policy consists of semi-annual cash dividends of $0.05 per share ($0.10 per share annually) which have been paid in March and September of each year. In 2024, Network鈥�1 continued to declare and pay dividends consistent with its dividend policy.
