  • Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Sales for the second quarter of 2021 were $17.3 million, of which $8.9 million was generated from the consumer market, $6.2 million from the enterprise market and $2.2 million from the automotive market. Sales decreased by 0.5%, or $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $17.4 million in the first quarter of 2021. Consumer sales declined from the first quarter of 2021 by $1.4 million primarily due to weakness from the chip shortage at one large North American service provider end customer as well as weakness from our international service provider end customers also due to the global chip shortage. Enterprise product sales increased from the first quarter of 2021 by $1.8 million driven by the product ramp of industrial Internet of Things devices through our acquisition of NimbeLink. Automotive sales decreased $0.5 million from the first quarter of 2021 driven mostly from the slower adoption of AirgainConnect products. Sales for the second quarter of 2021 increased by 51.1%, or $5.9 million from $11.4 million in the same year-ago period. The increase in sales from the second quarter of 2020 was primarily due to $4.8 million of revenue recognized from NimbeLink, which was acquired on January 7, 2021, and whose revenue is included in Airgain's enterprise market, as well as higher sales in our consumer and automotive markets.
