Resonant Comments on Nomination of Directors From Park City Capital LLC

GOLETA, CA--(Marketwired - March 06, 2018) - Resonant Inc. (NASDAQ: RESN) ("Resonant" or the "Company"), a designer of filters for radio frequency, or RF, front-ends that specializes in delivering designs for difficult bands and complex requirements, today confirmed that it has received notice from Park City Capital, LLC (Park City) of its nomination of six individuals for election to Resonant's Board of Directors at the Company's 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Park City's Founder and CEO, Michael Fox, is an existing Resonant director.

"We remain focused on building upon our eight straight quarters of execution and value-creating strategic initiatives, and we expect to continue to do so as we move through 2018," said George Holmes, CEO of Resonant Inc. "The focus of our entire management team and board of directors is to consistently evaluate all options that will enhance shareholder value over the long-term, while not getting distracted by events outside of our core business."

"First, we'd like to thank our shareholders for their continued support, which has allowed us to capitalize the company and enable significant developments in our tools, technology and team over the past two years. Ultimately, these developments have been critical to the acquisition of new customers, the added depth and breadth of designs licensed at these customers, the acquisition of critical technology through the purchase of GVR Trade, and the development of the RF Front End ecosystem-the first of its kind in the RF Filter industry-through Resonant's Foundry Program."

"Second, the company is in its best position ever. Resonant has over 10 complex devices qualified by customers, which already are being sampled to their OEM customers. Not only does this demonstrate our ability to convert ISN designs in a timely manner, but it shows that we have multiple shots on goal to achieve our royalty revenue milestones."

Holmes continued: "As previously announced, over 7.5 million mobile filters incorporating Resonant designs were shipped by our customers in 2017. On our earnings call last week, we announced that in January these customers shipped over 5.0 million mobile filters which incorporate our designs for royalty revenue, which further validates our ISN platform's capabilities and our business model. We have also highlighted that we have new collaboration initiatives underway to bring our designs to market even faster, which we believe will drive new design engagements and help our customers achieve greater market share. We anticipate that new teardowns of mobile devices both internally and through third parties will continue to validate the acceptance and success of our technology, while showcasing the value we bring to our customers."

"Given all of these positive developments, it is unfortunate that Park City is launching a proxy contest at this time, as we view it as an expensive and disruptive process. Furthermore, this proxy contest has the potential to distract Resonant's experienced and capable board and management team. We believe the straightest path to success is continued focus on execution without distraction. It is through this focus that we will ultimately be in a position to deliver significant shareholder value."

About Resonant Inc.

Resonant is creating software tools and IP & licensable blocks that enable the development of innovative filter designs and modules for the RF front-end, or RFFE, for the mobile device industry. The RFFE is the circuitry in a mobile device responsible for the radio frequency signal processing and is located between the device's antenna and its digital baseband. Filters are a critical component of the RFFE that selects the desired radio frequency signals and rejects unwanted signals and noise.

About Resonant's ISN® Technology

Resonant can create designs for difficult bands and complex requirements that we believe have the potential to be manufactured for half the cost and developed in half the time of traditional approaches. The Company's large suite of proprietary mathematical methods, software design tools and network synthesis techniques enable it to explore a much bigger set of possible solutions and quickly derive the better ones. These improved filters still use existing manufacturing methods (i.e. SAW) and can perform as well as those using higher cost methods (i.e. BAW). While most of the industry designs surface acoustic wave filters using a coupling-of-modes model, Resonant uses circuit models and physical models. Circuit models are computationally much faster, and physical models are highly accurate models based entirely on fundamental material properties and dimensions. Resonant's method delivers excellent predictability, enabling achievement of the desired product performance in roughly half as many turns through the fab. In addition, because Resonant's models are fundamental, integration with its foundry and fab customers is eased because its models speak the "fab language" of basic material properties and dimensions.

Additional Information and Where to Find It
