Cambium Networks (OTC: CMBMF) is a wireless networking hardware company that designs and sells fixed wireless, Wi-Fi, and point-to-point radio products for broadband network operators and enterprises.

Product revenues were $141.3 million in FY2025, down 10.5% from $157.8 million in FY2024, driven by lower demand for ePMP, 28 GHz, and 60 GHz point-to-multipoint products. The company reported a net loss of $38.5 million and net cash used in operating activities of $15.7 million for FY2025. As of the filing dated May 1, 2026, management was actively seeking additional capital through divestitures or capital raises and working with lenders on accommodation to meet obligations over the next twelve months.
