INTEVAC REPORTS THIRD-QUARTER 2003 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Santa Clara, Calif.—October 21, 2003—Intevac, Inc. (Company) (Nasdaq: IVAC), today reported financial results for the three and nine-month periods ended September 27, 2003.
Revenues for the third quarter were $7.6 million, compared to $6.7 million for third quarter of 2002. The increase in revenues was primarily due to the increase in photonics technology sales to $2.7 million from $2.0 million in the year-ago period.
Net loss for the quarter was $2.9 million, or $(0.24) per diluted share, and included the effect of establishing $210,000 of inventory reserves. For the third quarter of 2002, Intevac reported a net loss of $3.8 million, which included $508,000 of other expense related to the exchange of $36.3 million of its 6 1/2% convertible notes due 2004 for a combination of cash and its 6 1/2% convertible notes due 2009, and a $26,000 credit to inventory reserves.
Revenues for the nine months ended September 27, 2003 were $24.2 million, versus $21.8 million for the comparable period in 2002. The increase in nine-month revenues was attributable to an increase in equipment products revenue to $17.8 million from $16.3 million in the year-ago period and an increase in photonics technology sales to $6.4 million from $5.5 million in the year-ago period. Equipment revenues during these periods included flat panel display manufacturing equipment sales of $7.3 million in 2003, and $5.2 million in 2002.
Net loss for the nine months ended September 27, 2003, was $11.7 million, or $(0.96) per diluted share, and included the effects of establishing a $638,000 reserve for disposition of fixed assets and $942,000 of inventory reserves. For the year-earlier period, the Company reported a loss of $5.1 million, or $(0.42) per diluted share, which included the effect of a $6.4 million tax refund and the effect of establishing $678,000 of inventory reserves.
Backlog totaled $24.1 million on September 27, 2003, compared to $14.3 million on June 28, 2003, and $30.3 million on September 28, 2002. The increase in backlog relative to the prior quarter was primarily the result of orders received during the quarter for two Intevac®200 Lean and two Intevac®MDP-250 hard disk drive media deposition systems. Following the end of third quarter 2003 Intevac received orders for an additional eight 200 Lean systems, which are not included in the $24.1 million backlog of September 27, 2003.
Intevac Chief Executive Kevin Fairbairn commented: “The upturn in the hard disk drive market is now clearly upon us and should enable Intevac to achieve significantly better business results next year. Expansions of hard disk drive production capacity have been announced by three of our customers, and in the last few months we have received orders for two MDP-250 systems and ten next generation 200 Lean systems. Forecasters are projecting significant growth in hard drive shipments over the next three years driven by large growth in consumer applications like DVRs, or digital video recorders, and large capacity MP3 players like iPodtm.”
“Our imaging business also made good progress this quarter,” Fairbairn added. “Revenues increased substantially and our new imaging operations group achieved record yields on our LIVAR camera sensors. We expect results in the imaging business to further improve in Q4 with the shipment of multiple LIVAR® cameras for development applications.”
