SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED SEPTEMBER 16, 2024

PROSPECTUS

Sonim Technologies, Inc.

Up to 700,000 Shares of Common Stock

Including up to 350,000 Shares of Common Stock Issuable upon Exercise of Warrants

This prospectus relates to the resale of up to an aggregate of 700,000 shares of our common stock, par value of $0.001 per share, which consists of up to (i) 350,000 shares of our common stock (the "April 2024 Shares") and (ii) 350,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of certain common stock purchase warrants (the "Warrants") with a term of five (5) years and an exercise price of $11.00 per share (the "Warrant Shares" and, together with the April 2024 Shares, the "Resale Shares") by the selling stockholder named in this prospectus and his permitted transferees (the "Selling Stockholder"). For information about the Selling Stockholder, see the section titled "Selling Stockholder."

We are registering the offer and sale of the Resale Shares originally issued in a private placement pursuant to a registration rights agreement, which we entered with the Selling Stockholder on April 29, 2024 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"). The Registration Rights Agreement was contemplated by that certain subscription agreement between us and the Selling Stockholder entered on April 29, 2024 (the "Subscription Agreement"). Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, we issued and sold the April 2024 Shares and the Warrants, at a price of $11.00 per share of our common stock and the accompanying Warrant (as adjusted for our 1-for-10 reverse stock split effected on July 17, 2024, and based on an aggregate of 350,000 April 2024 Shares and 350,000 Warrants originally sold for an aggregate purchase price of $3,850,000). We issued the April 2024 Shares and the Warrants in reliance upon the exemption from the registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Regulation S promulgated thereunder. The entirety of the Resale Shares is subject to a lock-up agreement (the "Lock-Up Agreement") entered contemporaneously with the Subscription Agreement and may not be sold pursuant to this registration statement before the expiration date of the applicable lockup period, October 26, 2024.

We are not selling any shares of our common stock and will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Resale Shares by the Selling Stockholder, pursuant to this prospectus; however, we will receive the exercise price to purchase the Warrant Shares upon any cash exercise of the Warrants by the Selling Stockholder. For information, see the section titled "Use of Proceeds ."

The Resale Shares (assuming the exercise of the entirety of the Warrants and disregarding the beneficial ownership limitation of the Selling Stockholder described in this prospectus) represent approximately 13% of the outstanding shares of our common stock as of August 5, 2024, and approximately 27% of our public float. Given the substantial number of shares of our common stock being registered for potential resale by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to this prospectus and the prospectus filed as a part of the registration statement dated December 1, 2023, in connection with a resale of our common stock by certain selling stockholders, the sale of shares of our common stock, or the perception in the market that holders of a large number of shares intend to sell shares, could increase the volatility of the market price of our common stock or result in a significant decline in the public trading price of our common stock. These sales, or the possibility that these sales may occur, also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate. For more information, see the risk factor titled "Sales of our common stock under resale registration statements or the perception of such sales in the public market or otherwise could cause the market price for our common stock to decline, even if our business is doing well" on page 23 of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 9, 2024.

The Selling Stockholder identified in this prospectus may offer the Resale Shares from time to time through public or private transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. The registration of the Resale Shares on behalf of the Selling Stockholder, however, does not necessarily mean that the Selling Stockholder will offer or sell the Resale Shares under this registration statement at any time in the near future or at all. We cannot predict when, or in what amounts, the Selling Stockholder may sell any of the Resale Shares. The timing and amount of any sale of the Resale Shares is within the sole discretion of the Selling Stockholder. We will pay all expenses of registering the Resale Shares, including legal and accounting fees. All selling and other expenses incurred by the Selling Stockholder will be borne by the Selling Stockholder. For additional information on the possible methods of sale that may be used by the Selling Stockholder, see the section titled "Plan of Distribution."

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risk factors beginning on page 7 of this prospectus and under similar headings in the other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus before purchasing any of the Resale Shares offered by this prospectus.

Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq"), under the symbol "SONM." The last reported sale price of our common stock on Nasdaq on September 13, 2024, was $2.71 per share.

We may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time by filing amendments or supplements as required. You should read the entire prospectus and any amendments or supplements carefully before you make your investment decision.

We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act and a "smaller reporting company" as defined under Rule 405 of the Securities Act, and, as such, are subject to certain reduced public company reporting requirements. See "Prospectus Summary-Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company and a Smaller Reporting Company" on page 4 of this prospectus supplement.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The date of this prospectus is , 2024.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this prospectus or the documents incorporated herein by reference regarding our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans, and objectives of management are forward-looking statements.

Those statements appear in this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement, and the documents incorporated herein and therein by reference, particularly in the sections titled "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of our management that are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The forward-looking statements in this prospectus and the documents incorporated herein by reference may include but are not limited to the statements about:

our business strategy and objectives;
our future financial performance and results of operations;
our expansion into new market segments and the development of our new segment of products;
our assessment of the market opportunities and our abilities to capitalize on such market opportunities;
our assessments of the impact of various events on our financial condition and results of operations;
the performance of third parties upon which we depend, including manufacturers;
the volatility of capital markets and other macroeconomic factors, including inflationary pressures, banking instability issues, geopolitical tensions, or the outbreak of hostilities or war; and
expectations regarding the period during which we will qualify as a "smaller reporting company" or "emerging growth company."

Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:

the availability of cash on hand and other sources of liquidity to fund our operations and grow our business;
2
our ability to compete effectively depends on multiple factors and we may not be able to continue to develop solutions to address user needs effectively;
a small number of customers account for a significant portion of our revenue;
our entry into the data device sector could divert our management team's attention from existing products, cause delays in launching our new products, or otherwise have a significant adverse impact on our business, operating results, and financial condition;
failure to meet the Nasdaq's continued listing requirements and other Nasdaq rules could adversely affect the price of our common stock and make it more difficult for us to sell securities in a future financing or for you to sell our common stock;
the financial and operational projections that we may provide from time to time are subject to inherent risks;
our ability to incorporate emerging technologies into our new consumer products given the lengthy development cycle;
our ability to adapt to shortened customer lead times and tightened inventory controls from our key customers;
we are materially dependent on some customer relationships that are characterized by product award letters and the loss of such relationships could harm our business and operating results;
our quarterly results may vary significantly from period to period;
we rely primarily on third-party contract manufacturers and partners;
if our products contain defects or errors, we could incur significant unexpected expenses, experience product returns and lost sales, experience product recalls, suffer damage to our brand and reputation, and be subject to product liability or other claims;
we are required to undergo a lengthy customization and certification process for each wireless carrier customer;
we are dependent on the continued services and performance of a concentrated and limited group of senior management and other key personnel;
we face risks related to the impact of various economic, political, environmental, social, and market events beyond our control that can impact our business and results of operations; and
other risks and uncertainties other risks described in the section titled "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and documents we have filed with the SEC thereafter.

Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the future events and trends discussed in this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.

Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. You should read this prospectus and the documents that we incorporate by reference herein completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. Except as required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this prospectus, any prospectus supplement, and the other documents we have filed with the SEC that are incorporated herein by reference to conform such statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary description about us and our business highlights selected information contained elsewhere in this prospectus or incorporated by reference into this prospectus. It does not contain all the information you should consider before investing in our securities. You should carefully read the entire prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement, and any related free writing prospectus, including the risks of investing in our securities discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" contained in this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus, and under similar headings in the other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. You should also carefully read the information incorporated by reference into this prospectus, including our financial statements, and the exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

Overview

We are a leading U.S.-based provider of rugged mobile devices and accessories designed for workers physically engaged in their work environments, often in mission-critical roles. As part of our expansion efforts, we introduced our Connected Solutions division and launched a mobile hotspot late in the second quarter of 2024. In the second half of 2024, the same mobile hotspot will launch with additional carriers and a second mobile hotspot will launch in the U.S., Canada and Asia/Pacific. Connected Solutions will primarily consist of devices that connect to the internet including mobile hotspots, fixed wireless devices and USB dongle devices. In addition to this, we have expanded our rugged phone portfolio by developing a next-generation rugged smartphone that is designed for enterprise, government, and small to medium businesses and is expected to be sold through tier-one carriers in North America, beginning in the second half of 2024.

We are executing the strategy of selling new products into much larger adjacent markets including the connect solutions market, the semi-rugged phone market, and the consumer durable phone market. During the first half of 2024, we were in a transition period, phasing out low-margin white-label products and commencing selling new products through our carrier channels. These new products will not only expand our portfolio of products but will also allow us to diversify our customer base into new markets.

Our key value proposition in the broader business and consumer market is to incorporate specific elements of our rugged roots into our new products with added durability without sacrificing attractive design and value pricing. We believe this is an underserved market opportunity in the small business and prosumer spaces. Our expertise in carrier mobility leads us to a natural extension into data devices, where we can leverage our technical expertise as well as our streamlined organization to bring better quality, better specs, and low cost to the marketplace.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company and a Smaller Reporting Company

We are an "emerging growth company" under applicable federal securities laws and therefore permitted to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements. We have elected to take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosure available for emerging growth companies in this prospectus as well as our filings under the Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation and financial statements in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote to approve executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We will take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an "emerging growth company."

4

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of:

(1) the last day of our fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of $1.235 billion;
(2) December 31, 2024 (the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date on which Sonim consummated its initial public offering);
(3) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period; or
(4) the last day of the fiscal year in which we are deemed to be a "large accelerated filer," which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter.

We are also a "smaller reporting company," as defined under Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). We may take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies and will be able to take advantage of these scaled disclosures for so long as:

(1) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million; or
(2) our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates was less than $700 million.

Even after we are no longer an "emerging growth company," we may remain a "smaller reporting company." If we are a smaller reporting company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies. For so long as we remain a smaller reporting company, we are permitted and intend to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure and other requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not applicable to a smaller reporting company. For example, as a smaller reporting company, we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, and, similar to emerging growth companies, smaller reporting companies have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation. As a result, the information in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying base prospectus, or the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein that we provide to our investors in the future may be different than what investors might receive from other public reporting companies. If investors consider our common stock less attractive as a result of our election to use the scaled-back disclosure permitted for smaller reporting companies, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our share price may be more volatile.

Corporate Information

We were incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on August 5, 1999. Our principal executive offices are located at 4445 Eastgate Mall, Suite 200, San Diego, CA 92121, and our telephone number is (650) 378-8100.

THE OFFERING

Common Stock to be Offered: An aggregate of 700,000 shares of our common stock, consisting of up to (i) 350,000 April 2024 Shares issued to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Subscription Agreement and (ii) 350,000 Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.
Terms of the Offering: Subject to the restrictions pursuant to the Lock-Up Agreement, which generally prohibits any transfer of the Resale Shares before October‎ ‎29‎, ‎2024 (subject to customary limited exceptions), the Selling Stockholder, including his permitted transferees, donees, pledgees, assignees, or successors-in-interest, may sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Resale Shares offered by this prospectus from time to time on Nasdaq or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. The Resale Shares may be sold at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices, at prices related to prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices, or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. For more information, see the section titled "Plan of Distribution" on page 11.
Use of Proceeds: We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of Resale Shares covered by this prospectus. We will receive proceeds in the amount of $3.85 million, assuming the exercise in full of all of the Warrants for cash. We intend to use any net proceeds from the cash exercise of the Warrants for general corporate purposes.
Listing and Symbols: Our common stock is listed on Nasdaq under the symbol "SONM."
Risk Factors: Investing in our securities involves substantial risks. You should read the "Risk Factors" section of this prospectus and similarly titled sections in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus for a discussion of factors to consider before deciding to purchase our securities.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before you decide to invest in our securities, you should carefully consider the risks discussed under the section entitled "Risk Factors" contained in the applicable prospectus supplement together with all of the other information contained or incorporated by reference in the prospectus supplement or appearing or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. You should also consider the risks, uncertainties, and assumptions discussed under "Part I-Item 1A-Risk Factors" of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in "Part II-Item 1A-Risk Factors" in our most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed subsequent to such Form 10-K that are incorporated herein by reference, as may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC in the future. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our operations. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow could be seriously harmed. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. Please also read carefully the section above titled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and the identically titled sections of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Resale Shares by the Selling Stockholder.

We will receive proceeds from the cash exercise of the Warrants, which, if exercised for cash with respect to all of the 350,000 shares of common stock underlying such Warrants at the exercise price per share of $11.00, would result in gross proceeds to us of $3.85 million. We intend to use any net proceeds from the cash exercise of the Warrants for general corporate purposes. There can be no assurance that any of the Warrants will be exercised by the Selling Stockholder. Currently, the Warrants cannot be exercised on a cashless basis, however, there can be no assurance that the terms of the Warrants will not be amended in the future to permit the Warrants to be exercised on a cashless basis. If the Warrants (as amended to permit the cashless exercise of the Warrants) are exercised in a cashless exercise, we will not receive any proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants.

The Selling Stockholder will receive all of the net proceeds from the sale of the Resale Shares under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholder will pay any underwriting, broker-dealer or agent discounts, concessions and commissions, and expenses incurred by the Selling Stockholder for accounting, tax, and legal services and any other expenses incurred by the Selling Stockholder in disposing of the Resale Shares, unless otherwise agreed to by us. We will be responsible for the reasonable and documents fees and expenses of one firm of attorneys retained by the Selling Stockholder in connection with the sale of the Resale Shares and shall bear all other costs, fees, and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the Resale Shares covered by this prospectus.

SELLING STOCKHOLDER

The Resale Shares being offered by the Selling Stockholder are comprised of (i) 350,000 April 2024 Shares issued to the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the Subscription Agreement and (ii) 350,000 Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. Both the April 2024 Shares and the Warrants were acquired in a private placement and issued and sold pursuant to the Subscription Agreement. Except for the Subscription Agreement and agreements and transactions contemplated thereby, we have not had any material relationship with the Selling Stockholder. For additional information regarding the issuance of the Resale Shares, see the section titled "Certain Relationship with Selling Stockholder" below. We are registering the Resale Shares in order to permit the Selling Stockholder to offer the shares for resale from time to time.

Under the terms of the Warrants, the Selling Stockholder may not exercise the Warrants to the extent such exercise would cause the Selling Stockholder, together with his affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of our common stock that would exceed 9.99%, as applicable, of the then outstanding number of shares of common stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrants that have not been exercised.

The Selling Stockholder may sell all, some, or none of his shares in this offering. For more information, see the section titled "Plan of Distribution."

The table below lists the Selling Stockholder and provides other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of our common stock held by the Selling Stockholder. The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholder. The third column lists the shares of our common stock being offered by this prospectus by the Selling Stockholder. The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by the Selling Stockholder registered pursuant to this prospectus and that the Selling Stockholder does not buy or sell any additional shares of common stock prior to the completion of this offering.

The number of shares and percentage of beneficial ownership set forth below is based on 4,836,476 shares of our common stock outstanding as of August 5, 2024. Beneficial ownership is determined under the SEC rules and regulations and generally includes voting or investment power over securities. We have prepared the table based on information given to us by, or on behalf of, the Selling Stockholder. Information concerning the Selling Stockholder may change from time to time. We cannot advise you as to whether the Selling Stockholder will in fact sell any or all of the securities being offered hereunder. In addition, the Selling Stockholder may sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, the securities in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date of this prospectus. In addition, since the date on which the Selling Stockholder provided this information to us, such Selling Stockholder may have sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of the offered securities. The address of the Selling Stockholder is Unit 1507C, 15/F, Eastcore, 398 Kwun Tong Road, Kwun Tong, Kowloon, Hong Kong, Attn.: Jiang Liu.

(1) Includes 147,943 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants exercisable within 60 days of August 5, 2024. The Selling Stockholder is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 9.99%, which limitation restricts the Selling Stockholder from exercising that portion of the Warrants that would result in the Selling Stockholder and its affiliates owning, after such exercise a number of shares of common stock in excess of the applicable beneficial ownership limitation. The amounts and percentages in the table give effect to these beneficial ownership limitations.

Certain Relationships with Selling Stockholder

Subscription Agreement

On April 29, 2024, we entered into the Subscription Agreement with the Selling Stockholder, providing for the private placement of (i) the April 2024 Shares and (ii) the Warrants for an aggregate purchase price of $3,850,000 (or $11.00 per share and the accompanying Warrant). The closing of the private placement occurred contemporaneously with the execution of the Subscription Agreement.

Warrants

The Warrants have an exercise price of $11.00 per share, are immediately exercisable, will expire on April 29, 2029 (five years from the date of issuance), and are subject to customary adjustments for certain transactions affecting the Company's capitalization. The Warrants may not be exercised if the aggregate number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholder would exceed the specified beneficial ownership limitation provided therein (which is currently 9.99% and may be adjusted upon advance notice) immediately after exercise thereof.

Lock-Up Agreement

In addition, on April 29, 2024, in connection with the entry into the Subscription Agreement, the Company and the Selling Stockholder entered into the Lock-Up Agreement. Pursuant to the Lock-Up Agreement, the Selling Stockholder agreed not to transfer any securities purchased under the Subscription Agreement (including the Warrant Shares) until 180 days after the closing of the Subscription Agreement or ‎‎October‎ ‎29‎, ‎2024, subject to customary limited exceptions.

Registration Rights Agreement

On April 29, 2024, in connection with the entry into the Subscription Agreement, the Company entered into the Registration Rights Agreement with the Selling Stockholder. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company agreed to prepare and file a registration statement (the "Initial Registration Statement") with the SEC by May 30, 2024 for purposes of registering the Resale Shares (i) issued and sold pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, (ii) issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, (iii) issuable in connection with any anti-dilution provisions in the Warrants and (iv) any securities issued or then issuable upon any stock split, dividend or other distribution, recapitalization or similar event with respect to the foregoing. The Company agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Initial Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC by ‎‎October‎ ‎29‎, ‎2024. On June 2, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which the Company's deadline to file the Initial Registration Statement was extended to September 20, 2024.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Resales by Selling Stockholder

We are registering the resale of the Resale Shares on behalf of the Selling Stockholder pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, which agreement is incorporated herein by reference. The term "Selling Stockholder" also includes persons who obtain the Resale Shares from the Selling Stockholder as a gift, on foreclosure of a pledge, in a distribution or dividend of assets by an entity to its equity holders or partners, as an assignee, transferee or other successor-in-interest, or in another private transaction.

Types of Sale Transactions

The Selling Stockholder may offer and sell the Resale Shares, from time to time, following the effectiveness of the registration statement to which this prospectus is a part. The Selling Stockholder will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner, and size of each sale. The Resale Shares may be sold at:

fixed prices;
prevailing market prices at the time of sale;
prices related to such prevailing market prices;
varying prices determined at the time of sale; or
negotiated prices.

The Selling Stockholder may sell his Resale Shares by one or more of, or a combination of, the following methods to the extent permitted by applicable rules and regulations or additional obligations of the Selling Stockholder due to our corporate governance documents including but not limited to our insider transaction policy:

disposition on any national securities exchange on which our common stock may be listed at the time of the sale;
disposition in the over-the-counter markets;
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
privately negotiated transactions of sale to multiple purchasers or to a single purchaser;
short sales;
writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
disposition in one or more underwritten offerings on a best efforts basis or firm commitment basis;
11
broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholder to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
in distributions to members, limited partners or stockholders of Selling Stockholder;
under Rule 144, Rule 144A, or Regulation S under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus;
a combination of any such methods of sale; or
any other method permitted by applicable law.

These transactions may include block transactions or crosses. Crosses are transactions in which the same broker acts as an agent on both sides of the trade.

The Selling Stockholder will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner, and size of each resale or other transfer. We do not know of specific arrangements by the Selling Stockholder for the sale of the Resale Shares. The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Stockholder from any sale of the Resale Shares will be the purchase price of the Resale Shares less discounts or commissions, if any. The Selling Stockholder reserves the right to accept and, together with his respective agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of the Resale Shares to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from any such sale.

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholder may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a mark-up or mark-down in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholder may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholder may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). We may suspend the sale of securities by the Selling Stockholder pursuant to this prospectus for certain periods of time for certain reasons, including if the prospectus is required to be supplemented or amended to include additional material information, and we may file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

The Selling Stockholder also may transfer the securities in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees, or other successors-in-interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus. Upon being notified by a Selling Stockholder that a donee, pledgee, transferee, other successor-in-interest intends to sell our securities, we will, to the extent required and permitted, promptly file a supplement to this prospectus to name specifically such person as a Selling Stockholder. The Selling Stockholder may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some shares of the securities owned by them and, if a Selling Stockholder defaults in the performance of its secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell such shares of the securities, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment or supplement to this prospectus amending the list of the Selling Stockholder to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as the Selling Stockholder under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholder also may transfer shares of the securities in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees, or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

12

The Selling Stockholder and any broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the Resale Shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions, or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholder is subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

We have agreed to indemnify each seller of Resale Shares, each of its employees, advisors, agents, representatives, partners, officers, and directors, and each person who controls such seller (within the meaning of the Securities Act), and any agent or investment advisor thereof against certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act from sales of the Resale Shares. The Selling Stockholder may agree to indemnify any agent, broker, or dealer that participates in sales of the Resale Shares against liabilities arising under the Securities Act from sales of the Resale Shares.

We have agreed to pay certain expenses incurred in connection with the registration and sale of the Resale Shares covered by this prospectus, including, among other things, all registration and filing fees (including SEC, Nasdaq, and state blue sky registration and filing fees), printing expenses, and the fees and disbursements of our outside counsel and independent accountants, but excluding underwriting discounts and commissions.

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of our common stock may not simultaneously engage in market-making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholder will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the common stock by the Selling Stockholder or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholder and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act). Once sold under the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of our common stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

The validity of the issuance of the common stock offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Venable LLP, New York, New York. Any underwriters or agents will be advised about other issues relating to the offering by counsel to be named in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Item 15. Indemnification of Officers and Directors.

Section 145 of Title 8 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") empowers a corporation, within certain limitations, to indemnify any person against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any suit or proceeding to which such person is a party by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, as long as such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. With respect to any criminal proceedings, such person must have had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

In the case of a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor (e.g., a stockholder derivative suit), a corporation may indemnify an officer, director, employee, or agent if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation; provided, however, that no person adjudged to be liable to the corporation may be indemnified unless, and only to the extent that, the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought determines upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability, in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court deems proper. A director, officer, employee, or agent who is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any proceeding subject to the DGCL's indemnification provisions must be indemnified by the corporation for reasonable expenses incurred therein, including attorneys' fees.

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a corporation's certificate of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

As permitted by the DGCL, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation allows for indemnification of our directors, officers, employees, and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL. Our amended and restated bylaws also provide for the indemnification of our directors and executive officers to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL.

We have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and officers, whereby we have agreed to indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law, including indemnification against expenses and liabilities incurred in legal proceedings to which the director or officer was, or is threatened to be made, a party by reason of the fact that such director or officer is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of Sonim, provided that such director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner that the director or officer reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interest of Sonim.

We maintain insurance policies that indemnify our directors and officers against various liabilities arising under the Exchange Act, that might be incurred by any director or officer in his or her capacity as such.

The foregoing summaries are subject to the complete text of the DGCL and our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws and are qualified in their entirety by reference thereto.

Item 17. Undertakings.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at the time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
(5) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(6) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
