("Ethernity" or the "Company")
Operational Update and Cost Reduction Measures
Ethernity Networks Limited (AIM: ENET.L; OTCMKTS: ENETF), a leading supplier
of data processing semiconductor technology for networking appliances and PON,
provides the following operational update.
The Company's cash flow plan for 2026 was based, in part, on anticipated
revenues from customers and the exercise of outstanding warrants over the
Company's ordinary shares. As of the date of this announcement, such warrant
exercises have not materialised and, given the current share price, the
likelihood of near-term exercise is considered low. In light of this, the
Board has implemented immediate measures to preserve the Company's cash and
maintain operational continuity.
Management Cost Reduction
Effective from mid-May 2026, the Company's senior management, David Levi (CEO)
and Shavit Baruch (VP R&D), will transition to a part-time engagement of
approximately 20% of their previous full-time commitment. This measure is
intended to significantly reduce operating expenses while ensuring that
management remains available to support the Company's ongoing activities.
The objective of this step is to:
• maintain support for existing customers;
• continue ongoing engagement and business expansion with key
customers; and
• preserve the core R&D capabilities required to deliver the
Company's planned revenues.
The Company's aim and objective is to continue operation as a going concern
towards a break-even position, while seeking to continue meeting its
short-term debt and creditor obligations as they fall due, and maintaining the
operational team required to support customers and revenue generation.
Outlook
The Company now targets revenues in the range of $1.6 million to $1.8 million
for 2026, based on existing customer engagements, principally the ongoing
engagement with the Company's Tier-1 U.S. defence and aerospace customer.
In addition, the Company has several ongoing commercial opportunities,
including ASIC licensing activities, as referenced in previous announcements,
and additional engagements with existing customers. These opportunities are
not yet secured, and there can be no certainty as to their outcome, timing, or
potential contribution to revenues. Should the revenues not materialise in
line with the expectations set out above, it is anticipated that the Company
would be required to raise additional funds in 2026.
The Board will continue to monitor the Company's financial position closely
and will provide further updates as appropriate.
