    Closes $70 Million in Debt Financing, Including $50 Million in 2Q 2023

    Signs Agreement with Top-Tier Global Chip Manufacturer for Licensing of NextNav Technology  

    Expands E911 Partner Network with additional Nationwide U.S. Carrier

    MCLEAN, Va., Aug. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NextNav Inc. (NASDAQ: NN) (“NextNav” or the “Company”), a leader in next generation GPS and 3D geolocation, today reported financial results for NextNav’s second quarter ended June 30, 2023.

    Ganesh Pattabiraman, NextNav Co-founder and CEO, stated, “We continue to see solid strategic momentum in the business as we move into the second half of the year. We closed a $50 million debt financing deal and subsequent to quarter end we closed an additional $20 million investment from existing investors increasing their commitments. This investment is a testament to the fundamentals of our business and the favorable view the market has of our strategic assets and future prospects. We look forward to leveraging these funds, which provide us with multiple years of runway, to continue executing against our business initiatives.

    We were also pleased to see the FCC approve our experimental license that allows us to validate our ability to provide highly reliable 3D geo-location and resilient position, navigation and timing (“PNT”) capabilities using a 5G waveform, while simultaneously using that waveform to carry 5G broadband data.

    Additionally, we are seeing significant traction in the quarter in our underlying technology licenses as well as government grants. Notably, we recently signed a licensing agreement with a top-tier global chip manufacturer to provide positioning functionality to one of their mainline chipsets and expect it to deliver initial revenue in the second half of 2023.

    We are excited by the progress we’ve made thus far in 2023 and look forward to building more value for our shareholders going forward.”

    Recent Operational Highlights

    • Closes $70 Million Debt Financing: On July 6, 2023, NextNav closed an additional investment of $20 million aggregated principal amount of 10.00% Senior Secured First Lien Notes due December 2026 to a group of lenders from its previously closed $50 million aggregate principal amount. This brings the total gross proceeds from both rounds to $70 million.
    • Receives FCC Approval for Experimental License Using 5G Waveform: Following second quarter approval of its experimental license, NextNav began work on a Bay Area network transmitting 5G waveforms to demonstrate the ability to provide resilient PNT services combined with 5G broadband data.
    • Completed Successful Testing of PNT Solution: In July, NextNav announced the successful integration and testing of NextNav’s TerraPoiNT assured PNT system with wireless carriers LTE and 5G signals to deliver accurate 3D positioning and timing capabilities without reliance on satellite-based GPS or GNSS signals.
    • Licenses GPS Software to Top-Tier Global Chip Manufacturer: Recently, NextNav signed a new licensing agreement with a top-tier global chip manufacturer that will provide positioning functionality for low power GPS tracking to one of the manufacturer’s mainline chipsets implementing a GPS receiver as software intellectual property. The Company expects to begin recognizing revenue under this agreement in the second half of 2023.
    • E911/Public Safety: On June 1, 2023, NextNav announced it was selected by a nationwide U.S. carrier to deliver vertical location capabilities for E911 via NextNav’s Pinnacle service. The agreement will enable precise z-axis data – which is increasingly critical for emergency service operations – for 911 calls made on the carrier’s entire device portfolio, expanding the availability of life-saving technology across the United States and exceeding FCC z-axis / E911 requirements. The first devices on the network utilizing the z-axis capabilities are expected to be released later this year.

    Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2023, Financial Highlights:

    • Revenue: was $0.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $1.4 million in the prior year period. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, revenue was $1.6 million, as compared with $2.6 million in the prior year period. The decrease in both periods was primarily attributable to the prior year period’s significant upfront network integration revenue from technology and services contracts with commercial customers.
    • Operating Loss: was $15.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to an operating loss of $17.0 million in the prior year period. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, operating loss was $29.0 million, as compared to $33.1 million in the prior year period.
    • Net Loss: was $15.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to a net income of $0.8 million in the prior year period. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, net loss was $32.1 million, as compared to a net loss of $8.9 million in the prior year period.
    • Balance Sheet: as of June 30, 2023, the Company had $52.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, $32.2 million in short term investments and has $34 million in debt net of unamortized discount attributed to transaction costs and the issuance of warrants, with a gross value of $50 million notes from the recently announced debt financing deal.
