Network-1 Reports 2024 Year-End Financial Results
NEW CANAAN, CT / ACCESS Newswire / 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‑1's Board of Directors authorized an extension and increase of Network‑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‑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. Since inception of its Share Repurchase Program (August 2011) to December 31, 2024, Network‑1 has repurchased an aggregate of 10,374,232 shares of its common stock at a cost of approximately $19,983,000 (exclusive of commissions) or an average per share price of $1.93. 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‑1 continued to declare and pay dividends consistent with its dividend policy. Network‑1's dividend policy undergoes a periodic review by its Board of Directors and is subject to change at any time depending upon Network‑1's earnings, financial requirements and other factors existing at the time.
