Net Income For Fiscal 2008 Second Quarter and Six-Month Financial Results
HAUPPAUGE, N.Y.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—February 7, 2008—Globecomm Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: GCOM), a leading provider of satellite-based communications infrastructure solutions and services on a global basis, today announced record financial results for the fiscal 2008 second quarter and six-months ended December 31, 2007. Globecomm reports its financial results on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis and also provides pro-forma results excluding certain non-cash items. In an attached table the Company provides a detailed reconciliation of GAAP earnings to earnings excluding certain non-cash items. Highlights of the Company’s results are:
| • | GAAP earnings per diluted share of $0.18 in the fiscal 2008 second quarter as compared to GAAP earnings per diluted share of $0.11 in the same period last year. |
| • | Record pro-forma earnings per diluted share of $0.21 in the fiscal 2008 second quarter as compared to pro-forma earnings per diluted share of $0.12 in the same period last year. Excluded from the pro-forma earnings were non-cash charges for share-based compensation and amortization of intangibles relating to an acquisition. |
| • | Record consolidated revenues of $54.4 million in the fiscal 2008 second quarter as compared to $36.7 million in the same period last year. |
| • | Service revenues increased 85.4% to $15.5 million as compared to $8.4 million in the same period last year. |
Fiscal Year 2008 Second Quarter Results
Revenues for the Company’s fiscal 2008 second quarter increased 48.3% to a record $54.4 million, compared to $36.7 million in the same period last year. Revenues from infrastructure solutions increased by 37.3% to $38.9 million compared to $28.4 million in the same period last year. Revenues from services increased 85.4% to $15.5 million as compared to $8.4 million in the same period last year. This service increase includes $7.6 million generated from the GlobalSat business acquired in May 2007. The overall increase in revenues was primarily driven by continued growth in the government marketplace for both infrastructure solutions and services. Government marketplace revenue as a percentage of total revenues was 63% for the fiscal 2008 second quarter compared to 62% in the same period last year.
Net income for the Company’s fiscal 2008 second quarter increased to a record $3.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 on a GAAP basis. Excluding certain non-cash items, pro-forma earnings per diluted share were a record $0.21 for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 as compared to $0.12 in the second quarter of fiscal 2007. The increase in net income continues to be primarily driven by the operating leverage the Company is currently experiencing resulting from a greater mix of service and pre-engineered systems revenues as a percentage of total revenues as compared to the same period last year.
Fiscal Year 2008 Six-Month Results
Revenues for the Company’s fiscal 2008 six-months ended December 31, 2007 increased 55% to a record $96.8 million, compared to $62.4 million in the same period last year. Revenues from infrastructure solutions increased by 43.5% to $65.7 million compared to $45.8 million in the same period last year. Revenues from services increased 86.8% to $31.1 million as compared to $16.6 million in the same period last year. This service increase includes $14.0 million generated from the GlobalSat business acquired in May 2007. The overall increase in revenues was primarily driven by continued growth in the government marketplace for both infrastructure solutions and services. Government marketplace revenue as a percentage of total revenues was 65% for the six-months ended December 31, 2007 compared to 62% in the same period last year.
Net income for the Company’s first six-months of fiscal 2008 increased to a record $6.7 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.7 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, in the same period last year on a GAAP basis. Excluding certain non-cash items, pro-forma earnings per diluted share were a record $0.40 for the first six-months of fiscal 2008 as compared to $0.18 for the same period last year. The increase in net income continues to be primarily driven by the operating leverage the Company is currently experiencing resulting from a greater mix of service and pre-engineered systems revenues as a percentage of total revenues as compared to the same period last year.
Management’s Review of Results
David Hershberg, Chairman and CEO of the Company, said, “Record revenues and net income capped off a tremendous quarter for the Company as Globecomm continues to execute during the current growth phase.” Mr. Hershberg continued, “The Company looks forward to a record year and continues to seek out strategic acquisitions to round out the current portfolio positioning the Company for continued long-term success.”
Management’s Current Expectations for the Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2008
Globecomm continues to expect consolidated revenues for fiscal year 2008 to be between $190 million and $200 million. GAAP earnings per diluted share are expected to be approximately $0.70 per share, which includes $0.08 of certain non-cash charges or approximately $0.78 pro-forma earnings per diluted share excluding non-cash charges.
These expectations reflect actual results for the Company’s six months ended December 31, 2007 and management’s current view of the next six months. Actual results for fiscal year 2008 will remain susceptible to certain factors. These may include, but are not limited to, timing of or failure to book and record revenues from certain projects included in management’s projections, unfavorable product mix, possible cost overruns on projects, and major disruptions in the marketplaces in which the Company operates due to political unrest, local violence, global economic recession and changes in the United States Government foreign policy.
