KVH Industries Reports Second Quarter 2013 Results
• | GAAP EPS $0.10 and record Q2 revenue of $43.2M, up 35% |
• | Non-GAAP EPS (excluding Headland Media acquisition-related costs) $0.15 |
• | mini-VSAT Broadband Q2 airtime revenue up 35% year-over-year |
MIDDLETOWN, RI, July 31, 2013 -- KVH Industries, Inc., (NASDAQ: KVHI) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013. The company reported second quarter revenue of $43.2 million, net income on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis of $1.5 million or $0.10 per diluted share, and non-GAAP net income of $2.3 million or $0.15 per diluted share. The non-GAAP net income excludes one-time costs, net of tax benefit, associated with the Headland Media acquisition which closed on May 11, 2013. During the same period last year the company reported net income of $0.5 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, on revenues of $32.0 million.
“The acquisition of Headland Media midway through the quarter was an important strategic move to expand our broadband communications product offerings with new media content, including the latest movies, TV shows, daily newspapers, and music. Even excluding revenue contributed by Headland Media, our core business recorded our fourth sequential record revenue quarter,” said Martin Kits van Heyningen, KVH's chief executive officer. “Our maritime VSAT business continues to enjoy solid growth and we are excited that we are getting a favorable reception from customers regarding the new content offerings which we plan to roll out towards the end of the year.”
For the six months ended June 30, 2013, revenue was $83.1 million, up 42% compared to $58.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. KVH reported a GAAP net income of $3.5 million for the first six months of 2013, or $0.23 per diluted share. Excluding the Headland Media acquisition-related costs, the company recorded a non-GAAP net income of $4.2 million or $0.28 per diluted share. During the same period last year, the company reported a GAAP net loss of $0.9 million, or a $0.06 loss per share.
A reconciliation between net income on a GAAP basis and net income on a non-GAAP is provided below.
KVH's mobile communications revenue, including revenue from Headland Media operations, was $27.3 million for the second quarter of 2013, a 13% year-over-year increase. Combined, mini-VSAT Broadband airtime and TracPhone product revenues in the second quarter amounted to $17.2 million, up 17% compared to the same period last year. Maritime satellite TV sales were up slightly in the U.S. but down 4% year-over-year globally, due to general softness in the European marine market and an unseasonably cold spring in both North America and Europe.
KVH's guidance and stabilization revenue, which relates to fiber optic gyro (FOG) solutions, TACNAV military navigation systems, and related services, was $15.9 million in the second quarter of 2013, up 100% year-over-year. Sales of TACNAV and related services for the previously announced Saudi Arabian National Guard contract were approximately $5.9 million, primarily comprising product sales, installation services and project management services. During the second quarter, sales of our FOG solutions were up 43%, at $8.0 million, compared to the same period last year.
Speaking about the company's financial performance, Peter Rendall, KVH's chief financial officer, said, “With four successive record revenue quarters, we are pleased with the financial performance of both the mobile communications and guidance and stabilization businesses. Our gross profit margin for the second quarter of 42% was 280 basis points higher than the second quarter last year.”
“Our mini-VSAT Broadband airtime service gross margin for the quarter continued to demonstrate the leverage of our business model. Compared to the same period last year, gross profit dollars from our mini-VSAT Broadband airtime were approximately 47% higher in the current second quarter, while the gross margin percentage increased from 32% to 35%. Sales of our FOG products to commercial customers continue to exceed those to our defense customers. Operating expenses were higher than the second quarter of 2012, but excluding the impact of the Headland Media acquisition, were in line with our expectations. The $4.2 million increase in operating expenses was largely the result of incremental Headland Media operating expenses, Headland
Media acquisition-related expenses, and sales-related commissions on increased shipments of our military tactical navigation products.”
“Planning for the remainder of 2013, we expect our mini-VSAT Broadband business to show strong year-over-year growth. Although we have seen indications of a slowdown in future U.S. defense sales resulting from the implementation of sequestration measures, our FOG business is expected to continue to benefit from new commercial applications throughout the rest of the year. We remain cautious with respect to expectations for growth in leisure markets, due to ongoing challenges in global economies. We also have factored in the anticipated decline in TACNAV product sales in the second half of 2013 as hardware shipments under the Saudi Arabian National Guard program were completed in the second quarter. We also expect the Headland Media business to be accretive for 2013. With this context, we have increased our full-year revenue guidance to be in the range of $160 million to $165 million in revenue. We expect to achieve a full-year operating margin in the range of approximately 4% to 7%. We are projecting that our annual effective tax rate will be 35% or higher, subject to the effect of unforeseen discrete items. The net result is that, including the Headland Media acquisition-related costs (which equate to $0.05 per share), our GAAP EPS guidance for the full year is now expected to be in the range of $0.38 to $0.46 per share. Excluding the Headland Media acquisition-related costs, we are effectively raising both our low- and high-end of the full-year EPS range from previous guidance.”
“For the third quarter of 2013, we expect revenue to be in the range of $38 million to $42 million, reflecting strong year-over-year growth from our mini-VSAT Broadband business and a marked decline in sales of TACNAV products. We expect net income in the range of $0.08 to $0.12 per share.”
Mr. Kits van Heyningen concluded, “We are very pleased with our overall progress so far this year and, with the acquisition of Headland Media, we are sharpening our focus, enabling us to move faster to better capitalize on the long-term growth opportunities that we see around the world. We recently announced several new value added services that we expect to deliver to customers with our IP-MobileCast Content Delivery Service towards the end of the year. I am excited about the future we have as a company as we enter the next chapter of our next-generation connectivity and content delivery services journey.”

This is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered a replacement for GAAP results. We believe the adjusted information is useful to investors because it is reflective of underlying operational trends, as it excludes significant non-recurring or otherwise unusual transactions as described above. Our criteria for adjusted net income may differ from models used by other companies and should not be considered as an alternative to net income prepared in accordance with US GAAP as an indicator of our operating performance.
