Driven by Roam, Sonos Reports Strong Q3 Fiscal Numbers

Sonos has announced record Q3 results, and the popular audio company summarizes its strong numbers stating there is a high level of demand for its Roam, portable speaker and other products across its portfolio. 

According to Sonos, it is increasing its adjusted EBITDA and revenue outlook for the third time this year, reflecting its ability to capitalize on market tailwinds and execute on its long-term strategy to deliver sustainable growth. 

Sonos also increased its outlook for fiscal 2021 adjusted EBITDA to a range of $270 to $280 million, up from its prior range of $225 to $250 million, and increased revenue outlook to $1.695 to $1.71 billion compared to a prior outlook of $1.625 to $1.675 billion.

The company achieved a record third quarter adjusted EBITDA margin of 12.3% and recorded $379 million in revenue, up 52% from the prior year, and reports $55.9 million in free cash flow due to strong net income performance and working capital management. 

Sonos took a few unique approaches to expanding its brand as well, including a new partnership with Liverpool Football Club. The partnership builds on Sonos’ recent joint initiative with The North Face and newest product launch with IKEA.
