Westell Technologies Reports Second Quarter Results
and Progress on Sales of New Products
AURORA, IL, November 5, 2012 – Westell Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: WSTL), a leading provider of telecommunications equipment for wireline, wireless and home networks, today announced results for its fiscal 2013 second quarter, which ended September 30, 2012.
Consolidated revenue from continuing operations for the fiscal 2013 second quarter was $9.9 million. Net loss for the second quarter was $2.2 million, or $0.04 per share. Non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter was $1.8 million, or $0.03 per share.
“We made good progress during the second quarter with our new products, which are a key part of our strategy to significantly grow revenues from products for wireless networks,” said Chairman and CEO Rick Gilbert. “Our distributed antenna systems products are starting to contribute and we are seeing heightened near-term interest in our Ethernet and cell-site optimization products. We believe these new products should begin to contribute more significantly over the next few quarters. In the meantime, we also had steady demand for our legacy products, helping the Westell division to increase revenue 5% versus the first quarter.”
Consolidated revenue from continuing operations for the fiscal 2013 second quarter was $9.9 million, compared to $20.7 million in the fiscal second quarter of the prior year. The revenue decrease resulted primarily from the sale in the fiscal 2012 first quarter of certain assets of the company’s Customer Networking Solutions (CNS) division.
Net loss for the second quarter was $2.2 million, or $0.04 per share, compared to net income of $3.5 million, or $0.05 per share, in the second quarter of the prior year.
Prior-year net income includes income from discontinued operations that relates to the sale in fiscal 2012 of the Conference Plus (CP) division. Adjusting for the effects of the CNS and CP sales transactions and a discrete income tax item, non-GAAP net loss for the fiscal 2013 second quarter was $1.8 million, or $0.03 per share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $0.4 million, or $0.01 per share, in the second quarter of the prior year.
Consolidated operating expenses for the fiscal second quarter were $6.7 million, compared to $5.6 million in the prior-year quarter. The consolidated operating expense increase reflects the company’s investments to grow sales, introduce new products, and pursue corporate development opportunities, as well a one-time expense of approximately $0.5 million to resolve a dispute regarding the CNS asset sale.
Total cash and short-term investments on September 30, 2012 were $124.4 million, down $7.5 million compared to $131.9 million at June 30, 2012. The company repurchased 2.1 million shares at a cost of $4.7 million during the fiscal 2013 second quarter. As of September 30, 2012, there was $3.0 million remaining for share repurchases under the company’s existing board authorization.
Division Results
Revenue for the company’s Westell division, previously OSPlant Systems, was $9.9 million in the fiscal second quarter, down 5% compared to $10.4 million in the prior-year second quarter and up 5% compared to $9.4 million in the fiscal 2013 first quarter. While demand continues to be affected by customer spending constraints, sales in most product categories were up compared to the prior-year quarter. Sales of T1 products were lower than in the prior-year quarter but were higher compared to fiscal 2013 first quarter levels. Distributed antenna systems components and cell-site optimization products have begun to contribute to sales.
Fiscal 2013 second quarter gross profit for the Westell division was $3.4 million, compared to $3.9 million in the same quarter of the prior year and $2.8 million in the fiscal 2013 first quarter. Gross margin was 35.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Operating expenses for the division were $4.6 million, compared to $3.5 million in the same quarter of the prior year and $4.9 million in the fiscal 2013 first quarter. Compared to the same quarter of the prior year, expenses increased as a result of new resources to focus on growing sales, additional costs to develop new products, reallocation of costs from CNS, and one-time restructuring costs related to the consolidation of the company’s Canadian operations into the Aurora facility. The division reported a fiscal second quarter operating loss of $1.1 million, compared to operating income of $0.4 million in the same quarter of the prior year and an operating loss of $2.1 million in the fiscal 2013 first quarter.
The CNS division recorded revenue of $0.1 million in the fiscal second quarter, compared to $10.3 million in the same quarter of the prior year. The decline reflects the planned wind-down of sales to the division’s remaining customer following the CNS sale transaction. That wind-down is essentially complete.
CNS operating expenses in the current quarter include costs to develop and introduce HomecloudTM and a one-time expense of approximately $0.5 million to resolve a dispute regarding the CNS asset sale.
On September 26, 2012, as previously announced, the company kicked off a limited product release for Homecloud that is targeted at generating customer feedback on product performance and functionality. The limited release is not expected to generate significant revenue. Homecloud can be ordered onhttp://www.homecloud.com, with fulfillment by Amazon.
“We are on track with our strategy to grow and diversify Westell by adding new products – through internal efforts as well as acquisitions – that primarily serve wireless networks,” continued Gilbert. “We are starting to see payback on the investments that we have made.”
